Villain: Capture The Loli Sword Spirit At The Beginning

A brilliant white light streaked across the sky above the ancient sword tomb, momentarily confusing the sword cultivators into thinking that day and night had returned.

Thick and powerful lightning converged into the shape of a thunderous dragon, coiling and writhing in the sky like a planet-sized entity. It roared deafeningly at Jian Tianming, causing the sword cultivators assisting him in transcending tribulation to tremble in fear.

Jian Tianming stared intently at the thunderous dragon in the sky.

He wasn't sure if he could withstand it on his own.

However, in the face of the massive spiritual shield erected by countless sword cultivators, the power of the thunderous dragon seemed insignificant.

"Jian Tianming is here, thank you all for your help!"

Jian Tianming's determination grew stronger and stronger, and the thunderous dragon seemed to be provoked, charging madly towards him.

It roared, it howled, it wanted to devour Jian Tianming.

When its colossal body collided with the spiritual shield, it emitted a series of agonizing screams, gradually dissipating from its head.

Each sword cultivator bore immense pressure, one by one ceasing to transmit spiritual energy to the shield, lying on the ground drenched in sweat as if they had been overdrawn.

Helping someone transcend tribulation had a great impact on them as well.

One by one, the sword cultivators collapsed without any semblance of composure, and the aura of the thunderous dragon in the sky grew weaker and weaker, while Jian Tianming's figure appeared increasingly tall and upright.

Golden radiance bathed his body, making him appear majestic like a savior.

"The tribulation has passed, now you can enjoy the baptism bestowed upon you by the heavens."

An ancient voice slowly resounded, and all the sword cultivators breathed a sigh of relief.

While basking in the golden light, Jian Tianming bowed in all directions.

He was able to transcend the tribulation and reach the Dao realm solely thanks to the help of these ordinary sword cultivators.

Without them, Jian Tianming would never have been able to achieve this.

"Tianming Sword Emperor, no need to be polite. We all remember your protection. It is etched in our hearts."

"Yes! We all remember it!"

"Now that the universe is facing a crisis, how can we not contribute our own efforts?"

"Tianming Sword Emperor, go and repel those from the demonic realm!"

Jian Tianming bathed in the golden light, which continuously cleansed and transformed his body, making him stronger and able to contain more power.

"Not bad. I didn't misjudge you, Tianming."

"Senior overpraises me. Without the help of senior and everyone else, Tianming would not have been able to transcend the tribulation so smoothly."

"Hahaha, that's because you have enough talent and the love and faith of so many people. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to do all of this."

"Tianming only did what he should have done. I never expected to receive so much love from so many people."

"Yes, just doing what I should have done... Now, it's time for me to do what I should do!"

Before the words had even finished, countless broken swords in the ancient sword tomb began to move.

These swords mercilessly stabbed towards all the sword cultivators present, catching them off guard. Exhausted, they were completely unable to mount an effective defense, only able to watch in horror as their bodies were pierced by these broken swords.

"Senior, what are you doing!"

Jian Tianming summoned his own spiritual sword, but his body began to tremble as if it didn't belong to him. A power that didn't belong to him was fighting for control over his consciousness.

However, the senior did not respond to Jian Tianming. These people died in the ancient sword tomb, and their power was absorbed by the broken swords that pierced them, causing their bodies to disappear like dots of light.

As more and more people were pierced by broken swords, a dazzling light flashed in Chen Zongzhu's eyes. Immediately, a very small sword light streaked across the sky and stabbed towards a certain direction in the void.

"Tianming, it's in that direction!"

Chen Zongzhu shouted angrily, but Jian Tianming's spiritual sword kept swaying from side to side, unable to strike as it normally would.

A mocking voice echoed in the void.

"Do you think I didn't notice your little movements? Impressive, the master of the Juechen Sword Sect always keeps a trick up his sleeve. But trying to attack my true body... is quite laughable!"

"Tianming! Hold on to your will. You have already overcome the Heavenly Tribulation. Don't let calamity disturb your mind!"

Just as Chen Zongzhu finished speaking, a broken sword pierced through his body.

He looked down at his chest in disbelief, and his body gradually dissipated like smoke.

Jian Tianming's eyes widened in anger, but he couldn't release his fury.

He was fighting for control over his own body.

By now, he understood that the so-called senior didn't genuinely want to help him, but wanted to take over his body and possess him.

"Give up, Jian Tianming. Although your strength is formidable, my methods are beyond your imagination."

"I really... misjudged you!"

"Misjudged me? Hahaha, but I have never deceived you. Didn't I say that this is the only way to resolve the crisis? Didn't I say that I can help you overcome the Heavenly Tribulation? In the beginning, I helped you advance your cultivation and overcome difficulties. Did I harm you?"

The old voice laughed heartily, appearing extremely pleased.

The broken swords continued to shuttle through the ancient sword tomb, each strike capable of taking countless lives.

And after their lives were taken, not even their bodies remained.

The current ancient sword tomb was like a small world.

That mysterious and ancient senior was the will of this world, the ruler of this world.

Duanmu Qingyu: "It seems like someone has successfully transcended the tribulation."

Gu Lingxiao: "They succeeded."

Duanmu Qingyu was puzzled: "Then why don't we go in? Even if the techniques and divine abilities in this universe are much weaker than in the immortal realm, we would still be in trouble if a Dao Realm expert truly emerged."

"Don't worry, what's happening inside is not that simple."

"Playing mysterious..."

Out of trust in Gu Lingxiao, Duanmu Qingyu continued to wait silently.

Gu Lingxiao looked at the ancient sword tomb, his eyes seemingly able to penetrate the formations outside and see everything happening inside.

With his deep comprehension of the path of destruction, he could fully sense the growing power of destruction within the ancient sword tomb, and this destructive force was constantly rising step by step.

He was waiting, waiting for the speed of this destruction to decrease.

That would be the moment for him to make his move.
