After the Sword Tomb trip concluded.
News about the Sword Tomb, without a doubt, spread far and wide.
There was no need to mention Mixed King being suppressed.
After all, with Fiend King and Fiend King preceding him, Mixed King's suppression didn't seem so difficult to comprehend.
But another matter was astonishing enough.
That was Sword Emperor Son being slain by Jun Xiaoyao.
This was no small matter.
It was a major event capable of shaking the Nine Heavens!
After all, Sword Emperor Son was not some random nobody.
Nor was he like Wang Meng and his ilk from before.
He was a true Forbidden Zone Emperor Son.
The most elite of figures.
And most importantly, Sword Emperor Son was not simply killed.
Instead, he was refined into Materials.
This was an absolute humiliation for the Holy Spirit lineage.
After all, no race would willingly be refined into Materials by others.
Therefore, when this news spread, it immediately ignited public opinion in the Nine Heavens.
"That Jun Xiaoyao is too bold, he actually dared to kill an Emperor Son from a Forbidden Zone!"
"This is completely offending the Holy Spirit Ruins to death."
"Even if the Jun Family and other forces stand behind him, the Holy Spirit Ruins probably won't just swallow their anger like this."
"There's a good show to watch next."
Throughout the Nine Heavens, various forces focused their attention here.
And when this news reached the Immortal Mausoleum, it also caused an uproar.
"How is that possible…"
Liu Qiong Yan was stunned.
She had originally thought that Jun Xiaoyao might hit a wall on his trip to the Sword Tomb.
After all, Sword Emperor Son, Mixed King, and others were all Great Heavenly Venerate-level Prodigies.
But now, one was dead, and one was suppressed.
Yun Tianlai was also shocked.
She had initially been somewhat worried about Jun Xiaoyao, fearing that he might encounter some accident.
Now it seemed she had overthought it.
Just as the Nine Heavens were in turmoil.
Finally, on this day, outside the Sword Tomb, a figure with a vast and mighty Aura arrived.
That was a Quasi-Emperor Holy Spirit.
"Jun Xiaoyao, get out!"
The vast voice echoed throughout the Universe!
"He's here!"
Outside the Sword Tomb, various Cultivators had long been waiting to observe.
However, after that one statement, the entire Sword Tomb remained eerily silent, without any echo.
The Quasi-Emperor Holy Spirit's expression was rather grim, his eyes burning with boundless rage.
Jun Xiaoyao, who had slain and refined Sword Emperor Son from his lineage, now didn't even show any intention of coming out to explain.
"Jun Xiaoyao, do you truly wish to be irreconcilable with my Holy Spirit Ruins? Come out and apologize now, and I can still leave you a shred of Face."
However, there was still no reply.
This became awkward.
Forcibly entering the Sword Tomb?
That was simply impossible.
Not to mention the Sword Tomb, as one of the Ten Forbidden Zones, had its own majesty.
Even if no one stopped him, this Quasi-Emperor Holy Spirit couldn't force his way in.
Because outside the Sword Tomb, a Sword Qi Star River encircled it.
That was not something to trifle with.
Even a true Great Completion Holy Spirit stepping into it would Face danger.
Let alone him, a Quasi-Emperor Holy Spirit.
So, this made the situation very awkward.
Forcing his way in was not an option.
Leaving like this also seemed to cause him to lose Face.
As for the true powerhouses of the Holy Spirit Ruins, the Great Completion Holy Spirits.
They obviously wouldn't emerge for such a matter.
And to be honest, this Quasi-Emperor Holy Spirit wasn't representing the entire Holy Spirit Ruins.
It was only because Sword Emperor Son was an Emperor Son of their lineage that he wanted to settle the score.
But the current situation truly left him in a dilemma.
In the end, this Quasi-Emperor Holy Spirit simply sat cross-legged in the Void Realm with a gloomy Face.
He decided to wait it out!
He refused to believe that Jun Xiaoyao would stay in the Sword Tomb for his entire life.
This scene, without a doubt, left many Nine Heavens beings around him utterly bewildered.
A majestic Quasi-Emperor Holy Spirit from the Holy Spirit Ruins, who had come to demand accountability with a fierce Aura, was left hanging here.
This could truly be called a huge joke.
Just like that, a month passed in a flash.
Finally, Jun Xiaoyao's figure appeared.
He leisurely walked out of the Sword Tomb.
"Jun Xiaoyao!"
Seeing Jun Xiaoyao appear, this Quasi-Emperor Holy Spirit erupted with boundless rage, his terrifying pressure shattering the surrounding stars.
However, Jun Xiaoyao remained unhurried.
"Since Sword Emperor Son chose to challenge me, he should have been prepared for death. So, what do you intend to do now?"
"Kneel and repent, then proceed to the Holy Spirit Ruins to receive your punishment!" the Quasi-Emperor Holy Spirit's voice contained killing intent.
If it weren't for the immense repercussions of killing Jun Xiaoyao.
He might have directly attacked now.
"Repent and be punished?"
Jun Xiaoyao tilted his head slightly, a hint of cold mockery in his expression.
"If Jun is not mistaken, this should not be the Holy Spirit Ruins' own intention, right?"
"Allow Jun to guess, perhaps Sword Emperor Son is a figure from your lineage, and you have come alone to seek justice for him."
"But Jun can tell you this, if any accident befalls me, the entire Holy Spirit Ruins will suffer, not just your lineage."
Jun Xiaoyao's words made the Quasi-Emperor Holy Spirit's Face turn pale, his Qi violently surging, almost unable to restrain himself from acting.
"Oh, my apologies, I almost forgot, currently, I am still considered a part of the Sword Tomb."
"Let's not even mention the Jun Family. Are you sure you want to go against the Sword Tomb right now?" Jun Xiaoyao's tone was playful.
Since the Sword Tomb had intentions of befriending the Jun Family.
Then Jun Xiaoyao didn't mind borrowing the Sword Tomb's prestige.
And at this moment, deep in the Void Realm, a figure appeared, looking coldly at the Quasi-Emperor Holy Spirit of the Holy Spirit Ruins.
It was none other than Sword Seven!
He was also a high-tier Quasi-Emperor, no weaker than this Quasi-Emperor Holy Spirit.
"You…"
The Quasi-Emperor Holy Spirit was speechless.
Everything had been guessed by Jun Xiaoyao.
At this moment, a wisp of Divine Thought entered the Quasi-Emperor Holy Spirit's ear.
His expression changed, his gaze as dark as water, he glared fiercely at Jun Xiaoyao, then turned and vanished into the Void Realm.
Seeing this scene, Jun Xiaoyao's eyes deepened.
"They've been provoked to this extent, yet the Holy Spirit Ruins can still endure."
"It seems they are indeed plotting some Major Achievement, perhaps preparing for turmoil, which is why they don't want any trouble now."
Jun Xiaoyao realized this point.
The Holy Spirit Ruins, as a Forbidden Zone, acted so cowardly.
It wasn't that they were truly so useless.
Rather, compared to Sword Emperor Son's life, they had more important plans.
This was not a good omen.
"I also need to prepare quickly. After the matters of the Nine Heavens are concluded, I need to return to the Immortal Realm to make preparations in advance."
A storm thus came to an end.
Many beings in the Nine Heavens were astonished.
They hadn't expected the Holy Spirit Ruins to be so cowardly.
This also caused the pride in the hearts of some Nine Heavens beings to begin to crumble.
It could be said that Jun Xiaoyao truly shattered the pride of the Nine Heavens beings with his own strength.
On the other side, in the Holy Spirit Ruins, Divine Thoughts were exchanging.
"Is Sword Emperor Son's death just going to be overlooked?"
A Big Shot spoke coldly, it was a Great Completion Holy Spirit.
"It won't be overlooked, but for now, it's not appropriate to cause further complications."
"That's right, that 'door' is about to appear, and the greatest variable and Major Achievement purge in history is about to happen. Our Holy Spirit Ruins must be fully prepared."
"It would be unwise to confront the Jun Family at this time."
"Then, is this blood feud just going to be forgotten?"
"Of course not. Blood debts will eventually be repaid. When the true Major Achievement purge arrives, the Jun Family will not be able to avoid it."
"What, this Major Achievement purge is finally going to target the Jun Family?"
A Great Completion Holy Spirit was astonished and deeply shocked.
