The black robe swayed and settled.

Xu Zang stood in front of Ning Yi.

Although his body was thin, it looked like a mountain.

Ning Yi's nose felt sore. Over the years... he always thought of the scenes when he was practicing swordsmanship in Anle City in Gucheng. When he was in a bloody battle and was about to be unable to hold on, this man would always appear on time.

Stable and reliable.

The wind roared and poured into the hall.

At this time, Ning Yi discovered that Xu Zang's shoulder was burning with nothingness.

This is the Tao fire in the Nirvana realm.

"You're right."

The voice of the man in black robe rang in the hall.

Xu Zang whispered: "If you know the taste of 'hatred', then this sword... will be enough to hurt you."

"I have tasted too much of the 'hatred'."

Xu Zang smiled and said, "You seem to have been waiting for me to come to Tiandu... Now you are waiting."

Over the past ten years of decline and travel, he has been constantly enduring the pursuit of the holy mountain and fleeing... He has gone from a genius sword cultivator who amazed the world to a shameful shame in the world of cultivation, and has endured ridicule, abuse, questioning, and insults.

He traveled through Zhongzhou many times.

But I have never set foot in the imperial city.

Not once.

No one knows better than him what the forbearance in the past ten years is for and what the decline in the past ten years is for.

To be able to stand here today.

Facing the most powerful man in the world of Sui, say one thing.

"I am coming."

When he said this, Xu Zang's expression was relaxed. He stood in this hall, in front of Ning Yi, and in the whistling wind.

Also standing in front of the emperor.

When Emperor Taizong heard this, a strange thing flashed in his eyes.

Some are surprised and some are confused.

There is also a deep smile hidden.

His entire arm was pierced by the snow, and Xu Zang's sword energy continued to inject into this arm... If nothing unexpected happens, the flesh and meridians in the emperor's arm would be quickly eroded by the sword energy and then withered.

But he didn't pull away the hand.

Even looking at his face, he didn't seem to notice much pain.

The emperor looked at Xu Zang who was standing in front of him, as if he had seen the young man who had written words in Zizai Lake a long time ago. Time carved a scar on Xu Zang's cheek, but he was as confident, arrogant as ever... free.

Taizong asked with a smile: "You are not dead?"

Xu Zang asked with a smile: "Can the dead speak?"

After saying this, he grabbed the hilt of the thin snow sword in his hand and continued to ask: "Can the dead person hurt you?"

Taizong lowered his eyebrows and eyes.

He seemed to follow Xu Zang's words and seriously think about a profound question.

He asked again, "How did you do it?"

Xu Zang raised his eyebrows.

The voice from the opposite side asked again.

"How to do it... come back to life?"

"Want to know?" Xu Zang smiled and said, "I'll teach you."

He grabbed the thin snow, the sword edge was trembling, and the sword pierced Taizong's arm and twisted it at this moment.

Xu Zang said coldly: "Before this... you need to die once!"

A muffled groan came from the emperor's throat.

Xu Zang held the sword in both hands, his whole body pressed against a little, his body leaned forward, and his black robe flew.

Between the two, the ground was raised inch by inch, and the pillars of Chenglong Palace could not bear the pressure and made overwhelmed sounds.

Ning Yi was directly overturned by this energy and flew backwards. He gritted his teeth and the shackles of "imperial power" were gone, and the starlight and divinity were restored to flow.

His palm exerted force, and the girl in the green shirt was absorbed by her divine nature. The two of them stacked together, and were blown out by the waves of air, and they slammed heavily on a hall pillar.

And the center of all this.

The black robe and the imperial robe were entangled in a radius of ten feet, and spider webs exploded on the ground, and invisible dark thunder exploded in the air.

The sword energy swam in the void.

The sword energy in the sky was like a fish swimming in the deep sea, condensed like a physical body, and in an instant, all stabbed towards the emperor.

A pale yellow barrier rose outside the emperor's body, not divine or starlight, but more like a kind of pressure between bloodlines.

Xu Zang's expression was still plain, but his eyes were solemn.

In this world, any Nirvana powerhouse must be vigilant when facing the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty.

He had seen this breath... When the third prince Li Bailin summoned the Red Fu River guardian, the Star Lord of the Great Sui Dynasty used this technique. This was a secret technique between the royal family. The blood left by the first emperor of Light had a grand power to break through darkness and karma. Every royal family practitioner with strong bloodlines has the inheritance of the first generation.

These blood will condense in the dantian in the body, forming a formation diagram.

This secret technique is called "Imperial Map". The stronger the bloodline and the higher the level of cultivation, the greater the scope of this "Imperial Map" and the stronger its own strength.

It can not only resist the external sword energy, starlight, divinity... and even the attacks of the soul can be deducted.

This is one of the most powerful reliances of the royal practitioners. Generally speaking, if a genius born with the Great Sui royal family, as long as you do not have evil thoughts or go wrong in the road of cultivation, you will never go astray.

This "imperial map" is now spinning out from Taizong's dantian, and a dragon sounds from the entire hall!

The sword energy in the sky poured like a sudden rain, and then it all bounced back.

Xu Zang's unsheathed sword is as fast as thunder, and defense cannot be defended.

After entering the state of Nirvana, no one can match it.

The "fine snow" that pierced Taizong's shoulder in the Chenglong Palace is enough to prove how fast Xu Zang's sword is.

Even the emperor didn't react.

It was so fast that I couldn't even defend myself from the "Imperial Map".

...

...

Xu Zang's eyebrows raised a curve.

He was still holding the snow, but the power contained in the sword edge had already made him feel a little bit of wanting to let go.

He raised his head and looked at the towering man in the imperial robe and thought to himself... What kind of monster is this?

How fierce is Xixue's sword energy?

Punched into his arm, he was forced to be pinched by Taizong with flesh and blood. This old immortal monster who had lived for five hundred years had reached an outrageous level of control over his body. Xu Zang did not doubt at all. Every inch of skin, every strand of flesh and blood, and even every bone... Emperor Taizong could easily control it.

My own sword was actually clamped?

And there is a tendency to be squeezed out!

With the sword energy of Xixue, the emperor's injuries were being repaired and nourished wildly. This speed of healing... was like an immortal god. He used the bones and flesh in his arms to wipe the sword edge of Xixue, and forced him out bit by bit.

Xu Zang's feet were pressed against the ground, and a small earth slope was built behind his heels.

His pupils contracted, and he turned back in horror, and found that he was forced to retreat little by little with his sword.

Taizong's voice sounded quietly in the hall.

"Those three human powers, you are the first to understand life and death... and you are also the first to become Nirvana."

The emperor looked at the handsome face of Qingyan and Xu Zang's hair that turned gray and black.

He chuckled softly, "I did not read you wrong."

This sentence was said, Xixue had been completely forced out of her arm... No blood flowed out, nor was there a trace of pain. His palm held Xixue's sword tip and pulled the ancient sword.

Xu Zang's pupils suddenly shrank, and the huge force coming from the tip of the sword forced him to give up "Xiaoxue".

And as a sword cultivator.

He wants to abandon his sword.

Unless he dies.

So Xu Zang was pulled over by Taizong.
