That sword energy was too terrifying, so it not only startled Lin Xuan but also attracted many martial artists nearby who all rushed towards the source of that cutting sword energy.
The speed of the White Jade Spirit Boat was very fast, so it wasn't long before Lin Xuan arrived at the source of the sword energy.
However, he did not venture forward recklessly but instead floated above the clouds.
At this moment, below him, there was an Eight-Armed Evil Ape.
The Demon Beast was gigantic, like a giant mountain, and its aura was even more frightening, having already reached the peak of the Seventh Layer Venerable.
It was only a tiny step away from entering the realm of the Eighth Layer Heaven.
Obviously, this was an extremely terrifying Demon Beast.
At this moment, the Eight-Armed Evil Ape roared, its voice earth-shattering, as it stared viciously at a figure ahead.
Seeing that figure, Lin Xuan's pupils contracted sharply.
It was an elderly man, with white hair and beard, dressed in simple clothing, appearing immensely unassuming.
However, no one would think he was a regular old man because the aura emanating from him was too fierce.
He was like a Supreme Divine Sword standing ahead.
The sword energy he emitted alone could cut the surrounding mountains into slices.
Behind this elderly man, there were a few young disciples.
These people all carried longswords on their backs, and at this moment, they looked at the aged figure in front with eyes full of fervor.
Such terrifying Sword Dao Aura! This elder is from Divine Sword Manor!
Lin Xuan was shocked in his heart.
Although he did not know this elder, he recognized the few disciples behind the elder, as they wore the emblematic outfits of Divine Sword Manor.
He had previously crossed paths with people from Divine Sword Manor; although they were formidable, he did not fear them too much.
But he did not expect Divine Sword Manor to have such a fearsome figure.
The overwhelming aura left him deeply astounded.
Faced with the terrifying Eight-Armed Evil Ape, the elderly man in simple clothing showed no fear; he snorted, swung his arm, and a sword energy swiftly slashed out.
Instantly, the heavens and earth lost their color.
Amidst a hideous cry, the Eight-Armed Evil Ape in front was cut in half, spilling blood everywhere.
Behind it, countless mountains crumbled, and the ground cracked, spreading for thousands of miles.
This strike was terrifying to the extreme!
Massive sword energy slashed fiercely forward, stirring up endless waves of spiritual power.
Surrounding martial artists who had rushed over coincidentally witnessed this scene and were immediately shocked by the terrifying Heavenly Sword Energy.
Everyone's faces showed terror as they trembled and looked at the scene before them.
At this moment, the elderly man in humble clothes was like a revived Sword God, surrounded by sword energy, extremely fierce.
It seemed with a lift of his hand, he could cut through the sky.
After one strike, the body of the Eight-Armed Evil Ape was cut into two halves, and blood dyed the earth red.
This scene left everyone extraordinarily shocked.
You must know, that Eight-Armed Evil Ape had reached the peak of a Seven-star Demon General, about to step into the realm of an Eight-star Demon General.
Such a fearsome Demon Beast, among humans, only an Eighth Layered Venerable could contend with.
Yet, at this moment, it had been killed with a single strike. It had to be said that this was indeed too shocking.
"Sword Venerate, it's him, it's really the Sword Venerate!"
Someone looked at the elderly man in simple clothing and shouted hurriedly.
"What? It's him! No wonder it was so terrifying."
"That's a legendary powerful figure, I didn't expect him to come to this Heavenly Secret Realm."
Everyone exclaimed with astonishment.
Lin Xuan was also surprised; he didn't expect that this elderly man in simple clothing was the legendary Sword Venerate.
He was a legendary figure, almost becoming a King back then!
Although he is now old, not as brave as he once was, it still seems like he is not someone they could contend with.
Especially what shocked Lin Xuan was that terrifying strike from earlier.
He could also unleash such terrifying sword energy, but definitely not as casually as the elderly could.
One could say this elderly man is the only martial artist Lin Xuan had encountered so far who surpassed him in Sword Dao.
It seems the title of the Sword Venerate is indeed well-deserved.
After slicing the Eight-Armed Evil Ape in two with one strike, the elderly man in simple clothing was not surprised; he abruptly turned around, preparing to leave.
However, just as he took a step, he suddenly turned his head, looking toward a cloud in the sky, his gaze like a sharp sword piercing through the void.
But he merely glanced and then shook his head slightly, no longer paying attention.
However, Lin Xuan and Zhao Xue, hiding within the cloud, felt their bodies tremble.
Especially Zhao Xue, faced with a formidable enemy, her entire blood seemed to freeze.
"How terrifying this old man! That gaze was even sharper than a Divine Sword!"
Zhao Xue showed a face full of dread; she didn't expect that the elderly man in simple clothing could easily see through their hiding place.
Lin Xuan's face was also grave. That one glance also made him tense up.
But since he possesses the Great Dragon Sword Soul within his body, he didn't experience a state where all the blood and spiritual power congealed like Zhao Xue did.
However, that gaze still left him immensely shocked.
When he looked below again, the elderly man in simple clothing had already left the scene.
It was indeed the Sword Venerate of the Divine Sword Manor, and it was hard to believe the rumors were true.
People from the Divine Bird Palace looked at that aged figure departing, their eyes filled with apprehension.
Not only the Divine Bird Palace, but martial artists from other powers along the way looking at that figure were all tense.
They couldn't help it; that person's reputation was just too great, and earlier he had unleashed such a terrifying strike.
Someone like him, they couldn't help but fear.
Even people from the Murong Family, Happy Forest, and War God Palace saw that figure.
For a moment, elders of various powers issued orders to their family disciples, warning them to be cautious in everything.
At the same time, they accelerated the investigation of that cave entrance.
On the other side, Lin Xuan and Zhao Xue rode on the White Jade Spirit Boat, emerging from the clouds, and then sped towards the front.
Soon, they saw that giant city as vast as heaven and earth.
"What? It's that Lin kid!"
"Damn it, how did he come!"
Seeing the people inside the White Jade Spirit Boat, everyone became tense, especially the nearby martial artists, anxiously looking at the sky as if facing a great enemy.
They couldn't help it, for Lin Xuan and Zhao Xue's current fame was immense, and it's not a good kind of fame either.
Because any force, big or small, or even a King Family, that crossed paths with Lin Xuan and Zhao Xue suffered losses, with no one gaining any advantage from them.
This matter was too bizarre; reportedly, most people didn't believe it, but with more and more news coming out, they had no choice but to believe it.
These two seemed to be the nemeses of all powers.
So, upon seeing Lin Xuan and Zhao Xue now, these martial artists were so nervous.
Lin Xuan and Zhao Xue, however, had a slight twitching at the corners of their mouths.
They didn't expect their appearance would cause such a commotion, it seemed as if these people were even more nervous than when they saw the Sword Venerate before.
"When did we establish such a fearsome reputation?" Lin Xuan appeared innocent.
"A bunch of cowards, probably scared witless!" Zhao Xue regained her composure.
"Kid, I didn't think you would dare to appear, daring to steal my Shen Family's belongings; this time I'll show you what regret means!"
The Thirteenth Young Master angrily looked at Lin Xuan, his face twisted.
