The seven major sects dared to launch such a flamboyant attack on the Sword Dao Sect, believing that the Sword Dao Sect’s strength was insignificant and that they could easily crush it without paying much of a price.

But now, with Chu Fengmian breaking through as the Nine Tribulations Ancient Emperor, and using the Sword Origin Realm to force the retreat of the Wild Heavenly King.

If the seven major sects want to attack the Sword Dao Sect again, completely destroying it, at least five half-step Heavenly Human Realm experts must be mobilized to possibly achieve it.

And it’s very likely that two or three of these half-step Heavenly Human Realm experts will fall in this battle.

This loss is something the seven major sects can’t afford. If they truly lost so many experts, they would likely no longer hold their position as the overlord of the Nine Domains.

Thus, Chu Fengmian is certain that the seven major sects won’t attack him in the short term, only after the turmoil in the Nine Domains has passed and chaos has ceased can they regroup and confront Chu Fengmian.

Currently, the chaos in the Nine Domains gives Chu Fengmian, and the Sword Dao Sect, a chance to breathe.

During this time, Chu Fengmian must spare no expense to enhance his strength.

He must also improve the strength of those around him, and even that of the entire Sword Dao Sect.

"I plan to return to the Saint Dragon Secret Realm."

As everyone pondered Chu Fengmian’s words, he suddenly spoke.

"Return to the Saint Dragon Secret Realm?"

This sentence startled Qing Meng and the others, but immediately they understood the intent behind Chu Fengmian’s words.

Chu Fengmian plans to make a move on the Saint Dragon Secret Realm.

Taking blows without striking back is not Chu Fengmian’s style.

These three major powers have grudges against the Saint Dragon Secret Realm, making it understandable to target Chu Fengmian.

However, the Holy Dragon Sect is also a member of the Saint Dragon Secret Realm, yet the Holy Institute Sect and Six Extremes Sect disregard the fellowship of their peers and target the Holy Dragon Sect.

They even colluded with the other three major powers of the Great Luo Heavenly Star Domain to confront the Holy Dragon Sect.

Compared to the three major powers, the Holy Institute Sect and Six Extremes Sect are more malicious, and the Sword Enforcement Hall and the Sword Enlightenment Hall, although destroyed by Chu Fengmian.

Yet, these halls contain ancient figures within the Saint Dragon Secret Realm; these people must be eradicated sooner or later, as they pose hidden dangers.

The first thing Chu Fengmian plans to resolve is the situation in the Saint Dragon Secret Realm.

"I’ll go with you."

Qing Meng directly responds.

She has long wanted to act against the Holy Institute Sect and Six Extremes Sect, but lacked the opportunity; she won’t miss out this time.

"All right."

Chu Fengmian nods.

Qing Meng knows far more about the Saint Dragon Secret Realm than Chu Fengmian.

Moreover, this time when Chu Fengmian returns, confronting not only the Holy Institute Sect and Six Extremes Sect.

The other three major forces of the Great Luo Heavenly Star Domain are also within Chu Fengmian’s plans, Qing Meng’s understanding of the three major forces far surpasses Chu Fengmian’s.

With her assistance, Chu Fengmian’s confidence will be greatly enhanced.

"Yue Li, Luo Xi, you two stay at the Sword Dao Sect, strive to soon enter the realm of Nine Tribulations Ancient Emperor, or even the half-step Heavenly Human Realm."

Chu Fengmian speaks, looking at Han Yueli and Luo Xi.

Simultaneously, a thought crosses his mind, transmitting a piece of information to their minds.

"What is this?"

Seeing the information conveyed by Chu Fengmian, their minds are stirred.

This is precisely the method to control the power of the Sword Origin Realm.

Chu Fengmian created the Sword Origin Realm, and only Chu Fengmian can control it.

Yet Chu Fengmian can also devise methods to pass onto his trusted individuals for controlling the power of the Sword Origin Realm; once invaded by foreign forces, in his absence, they can utilize the Sword Origin Realm’s power to combat intruders.

The Sword Origin Realm is the foundation of the Sword Dao Sect; it’s vital, and those chosen must be Chu Fengmian’s most trusted individuals, Han Yueli and Luo Xi, of course.

The two are Chu Fengmian’s women, having fought through countless life-and-death battles with him, hence his unconditional trust leading him to pass this method to them.

This way, even when Chu Fengmian is absent from the Sword Origin Realm, they can activate its power to fend off foreign enemies.

Even if the Wild Heavenly King dares to attack the Sword Origin Realm again, utilizing the Sword Origin Realm’s power would be sufficient to force his retreat.

"Little Nine, you should stay too."

With a thought, Chu Fengmian immediately awakens Little Nine from his slumber within the Divine Tree.

The transformation of the Divine Tree has immensely benefited the constantly slumbering Little Nine upon the Divine Tree.

Chu Fengmian senses that at least thirty percent of the energy belonging to the Divine Tree has been absorbed by Little Nine.

Yet Chu Fengmian doesn’t harbor resentment towards Little Nine; after all, Little Nine is part of the Sword Dao Sect and contributed greatly in previous battles, meriting this reward.

Moreover, when Little Nine fully grows, he will likely be even more formidable than the Divine Tree.

Little Nine wakes up by Chu Fengmian, giving a dissatisfied glance before leaping from Chu Fengmian onto Luo Xi.

Little Nine and Chu Fengmian share a deep connection; without words, Little Nine grasps Chu Fengmian’s intentions.

Aside from Little Nine, Chu Fengmian also leaves behind dozens of Space Rings, previously obtained from slaying ancient emperors of the seven major sects.

Within these rings are countless resources and treasures, many beneficial for the pursuit of the half-step Heavenly Human Realm.

By leaving them behind, Chu Fengmian provides Han Yueli, Luo Xi, and others with resources for cultivation.

Regarding Yan Emperor, who now serves as the Sword Dao Sect’s steward, caught up in other matters, these resources include a share for him, as a form of benefit.

After organizing everything, Chu Fengmian turns to Qing Meng.

"Let’s go."

Whoosh!

With a flicker, the two figures disappear within the Origin Realm; they conceal themselves so well that even a half-step Heavenly Human Realm expert cannot detect the departure from the Sword Origin Realm.

Two beams of tunneling light stream to the heavens above, from around Chu Fengmian manifesting clusters of colorless flames encircling him and Luo Xi.

Even the nine-fold heavenly fire fails to harm Chu Fengmian and Qing Meng.

This time upon returning, ruthlessly eradicating the Holy Institute Sect and Six Extremes Sect is necessary, Long Qianjue has already been pressured by the strong forces of these two sects to open the peaks of the Holy Dragon Sect, surrendering countless resources; aiming to demolish the Holy Dragon Sect, they cannot be forgiven!

Furious Qing Meng shouts, her tone filled with anger.

Having grown through the Holy Dragon Sect to her current status, Qing Meng holds deep affection for the Holy Dragon Sect.

Now the Holy Institute Sect and Six Extremes Sect push increasingly harder, intending to obliterate the Holy Dragon Sect, provoking her to the brink of rage.

"Rest assured, none from these two sects shall escape, and those from the Five Spirit Sect and old figures from the Eight Halls, if unyielding, will accompany them in burial!"

Chu Fengmian icily declares, exuding an overwhelming dominance.

"Henceforth, the Saint Dragon Secret Realm must only revere the Holy Dragon Sect!"

Upon hearing this, Qing Meng looks towards Chu Fengmian anew; she realizes that Chu Fengmian is no longer the little junior disciple she once knew.
