2239 Breaking the Nature Formation, Outsider's Contempt
Sword qi fell from the sky like a meteor rain.
Most of them had seen that particular scene before, and they knew the owner of the voice as well.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The sword qi landed on the ground, causing a series of massive explosions.
Multiple craters were left on the ground after the dust had settled.
A person emerged from the void.
His black robes that fluttered along the wine, the frosty expression, and sword qi that circulated him scared people away.
The man was the strongest Outlier of the Divine Sword Palace, Sword Demon Dugu Bupo.
"A thousand years? Can the Nine Ways Spirit World open for a thousand years? Why don't you think before you speak." Dugu Bupo glared at Elder Dichu.
"You…" Elder Dichu's expression turned bitter.
He was a Human Guardian, so although his cultivation level was not particularly strong, his status was prestigious.
Dugu Bupo's disrespect infuriated him.
"Elder Dichu, calm down." Divine Bachelor Fengyue intervened and calmed the man down.
He then looked at Dugu Bupo and asked, "So, what are you suggesting?"
"We break it by force!"
Dugu Bupo raised his sword in the sky.
Sword qi filled the sky instantly.
The destructive sword qi swept across the field.
"Break it by force… I guess that's the only way." Divine Bachelor Fengyue nodded.
Even though it would offend the Jiufang Tribe, they did not have a thousand years to wait, so it was the only way.
"Everyone, together," he said.
The others already channeled their Great Dao energy.
"Sword Twenty-two!" Dugu Bupo attacked first.
Sword Twenty-two rained down like a storm.
The others joined him.
All kinds of Great Dao energy gushed out, colorful Immortal Sparks shone, and the void was distorted by the sheer amount of energy released. Even the land trembled and cracked.
Inside the Jiufang Tribe, the sudden quake sent everyone into a panic.
"What's going on?"
"Where is this quake coming from?"
"Someone is trying to break the formation!"
The people were afraid.
The Jiufang Tribe Leader brought the elites to the entrance to have a look.
Outside the formation, the land trembled, dust rumbled, and all kinds of energy attacks shone brightly. The different energies of Great Dao were terrifying.
In just a few moments, the land was badly damaged, and the formation trembled violently like never before. It was going to collapse.
"No. If this continues, the formation won't last."
"Damn it."
Everyone was anxious.
No one within the tribe was particularly skilled in formation. The formation was naturally formed, hence the name, so once broken, it could not be fixed.
It would have a huge impact on their lives.
"Tribe Leader, I'll go and stop them."
A Grand Dao Supreme Saint went out.
"Stop it! You are…"
Before the tribe leader could finish his sentence, a blast of vast sword qi came from the sky and blasted him away.
All kinds of energy attacks flooded him instantly.
The Grand Dao Supreme Saint elite was turned into dust.
Outside the formation, Dugu Bupo conserved his sword qi calmly. "Did someone come out just now? I didn't pull back in time."
Divine Bachelor Fengyue took one look at the man and instinctively felt a sense of reverence for him.
It was as expected of the brutal Sword Demon, but he did not say anything about the ruthless act.
He knew once they broke the formation, it was highly unlikely to negotiate or talk to the Jiufang Tribe in peace.
In order to seize the Opportunities of Fortune, blood must be shed.
With that, he raised his hand for another palm strike. The domineering palm energy that fused with multiple Great Daos was extremely powerful.
"Bang!"
The whole formation trembled violently.
"Haha! So you've made up your mind. Maybe other than Chu Kuangren, you too are worthy of being my opponent," Dugu Bupo said, showing an intense eagerness to battle.
"You should go to Chu Kuangren since you two are swordsmen. He's more of an opponent for you than me," Divine Bachelor Fengyue said.
He did not want to be under the maniac's crosshair.
"You don't need to remind me of that."
Dugu Bupo rose to the sky and channeled his sword intent to the limit, forcing the other Divine Bachelors and Divine Maidens away.
"Sword Twenty-three!"
"Bang!"
A pitch-black sword qi tornado was blasted forward, ripping the void and destroying everything in its way.
The sky and land trembled violently as the formation gradually collapsed.
The Jiufang Tribe was then revealed to the invaders.
"Hahaha! Got it!"
Dugu Bupo cackled and flew inside.
The others followed him inside. However, when they saw the people of the Jiufang Tribe dressed in animal pelts and wielding sticks, they showed contempt instead of awe.
"What bunch of undeveloped cavemen."
"Is there really an Opportunity of Fortune here?"
"Let's just have a look."
The people of the Jiufang Tribe were horrified by the intrusion of the Divine Bachelors and Divine Maidens.
The Jiufang Tribe Leader wore a grim look on his face. It was not the first time someone trespassed into the tribe. Elder Blackwood was a great example.
However, when he had a look at the new intruders, he knew Elder Blackwood was nothing compared to the likes of Dugu Bupo or Divine Bachelor Fengyue.
One misstep and the tribe would be wiped out.
"Third Elder, bring the people to shelter first," the Jiufang Tribe Leader said to an elder.
"I will." The elder nodded and brought the people away.
"Friends, I wonder what brings you here?"
The Jiufang Tribe Leader knew he was no match for them. Hence, for the sake of his people, he suppressed his anger and greeted them with a fist salute.
"We're not your friends, cavemen," said a Divine Maiden scornfully.
The others shared a similar expression.
The Jiufang Tribe Leader took a deep breath to suppress his anger. "Please state your intention."
"I want to know why you people are here in the Nine Ways Spirit World," Divine Bachelor Fengyue asked.
"We've been living here for generations."
"Why?"
"No particular reasons. Our ancestors adored a peaceful life, so we've been living here, away from the outside world," the tribe leader said.
"Is that so?"
Divine Bachelor Fengyue raised his hand for a palm strike at the tribe. After a loud bang, the land trembled, and houses were leveled to the ground.
Tens of thousands of people were killed by that one palm strike.
"You!"
Infuriated by the provocation, the Jiufang Tribe Leader's Supreme Honorable aura erupted.
"Oh, a Grand Dao Supreme Honorable, huh? Alas, you're just a normal one. What can you do?" Elder Dichu said.
He, too, released his Grand Dao Supreme Honorable aura, which was stronger than the tribe leader's.
Then, he spotted Nuwa, and his eyes glimmered. "Isn't that Sister Nuwa? I didn't expect to see you here."
"The way you address me makes me want to throw up," Nuwa said coldly.
"As a fellow Human Guardian, you're here oppressing a human tribe. Is this what you call guarding the humans?"
"Sister Nuwa, look at them. They're a bunch of undeveloped cavemen. Why care?" Elder Dichu asked.
"Men started from nothing and developed intellect over the years. We evolved step by step, so the cavemen you're referring to are also humans!" Nuwa said.
She stepped up and stood in front of the Jiufang Tribe Leader, expressing her intention to fight.
