Countless origin source laws gathered towards the Heavenly Venerate Platform . When seen from afar, one could even faintly discern the Martial True Body formed by the trails of origin source laws gathering below the Platform .
It was ascending the Heavenly Venerate Platform and rising as the reigning Venerate!
Although the Heavenly Venerate Platform was an unattainable goal for most martialists, all of them still felt a sense of excitement in their hearts .
“The Blade Demon will emerge victorious from the battle between the blade and the sword!” exclaimed a man inside a restaurant within a huge city as he raised his wine cup .
The man’s voice was filled with rapt ecstasy and a five-feet-long blade hummed nonstop beside him .
The man’s loud voice reverberated all around him before someone snapped back coldly, “Nonsense!”
“The Sky Sword is invincible! Lord Bai Jingtian will never lose!” A robust youth with a sword strapped to his back objected .
“Lord Bai Jingtian will definitely become the next Heavenly Venerate . ”
The man shot a cold glare at the youth when he heard this statement and snorted coldly . “Invincible? Is he invincible just because you say so?”
“The Lord Blade Demon single-handedly went up against five opponents and obliterated the Holy Divination Emperor . No matter how strong Bai Jingtian is, he will never be a match for the Lord Blade Demon . ”
The robust-looking youth returned a cold stare as his hands reached towards the sword on his back .
The sword whistled and the blade sliced through the air before they clashed . In an instant, two parties who had been total strangers were already fighting .
This sort of battle was only one of the countless battles between the sword and the blade that were happening in the Tianyunshen Dynasty . People that ranged from ordinary martialists to Earth Celestial existences were fighting it out because of their different opinions .
The Heavenly Venerate Platform was becoming more distinct, yet the Celestial Thearches that had started making their way to the Platform hadn’t realized it .

The omnipresent supreme celestial realms of the Celestial Thearches did not even appear .
Nobody felt surprised by the situation, as almost everyone knew what the Celestial Thearches were waiting for .
They were waiting for the battle between the sword and the blade . They were waiting for both sides to suffer from the aftermath of the battle . Or rather, they were waiting for one of them to fall .
“It will be a pity if the winner of this battle gets ambushed by the other Celestial Thearches…” lamented a young lady .
Everyone felt a similar sense of worry . Although the disciples of the Sky Sword Sect had absolute confidence in Bai Jingtian, they were also similarly worried about this sort of situation happening .
After all, Bai Jingtian was no immortal and the Blade Demon was exceptionally powerful . If Bai Jingtian managed to defeat the Blade Demon but suffered serious injuries, he might not just lose the Heavenly Venerate Platform, but his life as well .
After all, many eons ago, the seemingly invincible Sky Blade had fallen similarly after many Celestial Thearches had ganged up on him . However, Yuan Shenhui and the others had no solution for this kind of situation . After all, there were more than a dozen Celestial Thearches in the Tianyunshen Dynasty .
The Burning Emperor, the Black Emperor, and few other Celestial Thearches had gathered on an unnamed mountain peak . Every single one of them was silent, but they all knew each other’s intentions clearly .
It could be said that all of them were like hunters, quietly biding their time until their prey appeared .
Similarly, in another unnamed cave, a few Celestial Thearch beings were sitting quietly around a treasured mirror that showed the situation on the Heavenly Venerate Platform .
The Sky Sword Mountain was peaceful as usual .
However, nobody knew how long the calm before the storm would last . The number of people wanting to spectate from the surroundings was decreasing .
Thousands of swords whistled through the air simultaneously on the Sky Sword Mountain . The tens of thousands of disciples who had originally been suppressed by the atmosphere began to move almost at the same instant .
They had originally gathered below the Sky Sword Peak . However, all of them were directly looking up at the peak itself now .

A white figure emerged from the Sky Sword Peak . His hair was jet black and his robes were white . He held a sword with one hand and his steps were light, as if he was floating like a spiritual being .
Countless Sky Sword Sect disciples knelt on the ground at practically the same time . Their personally bestowed swords also flew out of their sheaths directly and began to surround the figure .
Thousands of swords were facing their ruler!
At the moment, Yuan Shenhui wasn’t just excited . He was also kind of worried . He was prepared to speak the moment he saw his Ancestral Master .
After all, he was the Sect Master of the Sky Sword Sect!
However, the moment he was about to speak, Bai Jingtian looked in his direction . Although it was only a glance, it was enough to make Yuan Shenhui swallow all the words he had been about to say .
The Ancestral Master knew what he wanted to say!
Just as Yuan Shenhui regained his composure, the buzz of swords began to echo all around . The buzz sounded razor-sharp, and massive battle intent also started to gather frantically through this buzzing sound .
Yuan Shenhui already knew who was about to appear . He swiftly turned his head and immediately saw a person in blue robes mysteriously appear on a mountain peak that wasn’t too far away .
The thousands of swords that had gathered around Bai Jingtian were making high-pitched sounds full of incisiveness and unyieldingness…
Yuan Shenhui’s face stiffened, as he already felt a terrifying sensation coming from that person .
This sort of fear came from the bottom of his heart and made him extremely afraid .
“King of Blades!” Unknowingly, these words escaped Yuan Shenhui’s mouth .
“You didn’t disappoint me . ” Bai Jingtian finally spoke . His voice was calm as he added, “Your 10 reincarnation cycles and the Sky Blade Technique are the strongest I’ve seen . ”
Luo Yunyang smiled gently as he said, “You didn’t disappoint me either . However, I must obtain the Heavenly Venerate Platform this time . ”
“It’s pointless to speak with such confidence!” Bai Jingtian snapped as he shifted his sight onto the Heavenly Venerate Platform that was floating in the sky .
He was also looking forward to obtaining the Heavenly Venerate Platform .
“Although the battle between the two of us cannot be avoided, we must not let those treacherous fiends take advantage of us . ”
While Bai Jingtian spoke, he pointed at the sky and said, “The Heavenly Venerate Platform has appeared and those Heavenly Venerates have been restricted outside the Tianyunshen Dynasty . Why don’t we have a competition to see who will be able to kill more of those people?”
“My sentiments exactly!” Luo Yunyang took a step forward and disappeared into the void . Meanwhile, Bai Jingtian waved his sleeves lightly and a sword-light ripped open the void as he transformed into a streak of sword-light and vanished through the ripped void .
Yuan Shenhui and the others only recovered from the shock after Luo Yunyang and Bai Jingtian had left . As he was looking at the almighty Heavenly Venerate Platform, Yuan Shenhui’s voice sounded a bit delighted . “Something big is going to happen!” he said .
In the depths of the Tianyunshen Dynasty’s Imperial Palace, a man wearing a crown was sitting face to face with a scholar . Judging by their posture and seating arrangement, it seemed like they were conducting some sort of academic study .
The scholar was fondling two jade balls the size of fists while the old man waited in silence .
Clang!
Following this sound, the two jade balls shattered and fear filled the scholar’s eyes .
“It seems like I have to congratulate you . Your Imperial Dynasty can continue . ” The scholar raised his head again . Although he sounded very calm, his eyes showed that he was terrified .
“Scholar, I know that you have never exaggerated in your entire life . However, I do not believe you this time . How could an Imperial Dynasty intimidate its surroundings without support from the Celestial Thearches?” the old man with the crown said sadly .
“There’s no longer any need . In the next 1,000 years, you and I will only need to intimidate those Sky Celestial existences . After those 1,000 years, if we still can’t reach the Celestial Thearch Level, then your Tianyunshen Dynasty will truly deserve to fall . ”
The old man’s eyes shimmered brightly . Although he appeared extremely calm during this meeting with the scholar, the calmness he displayed didn’t mean that he did not care about the issue at hand .
“What did you see? What exactly did you see?” The old man grabbed the scholar’s hand on impulse .
“I saw fallen Celestial Thearches, I saw a bloody sky, I even saw the clash between the blade and the sword . The only thing I did not see is who will ascend the Heavenly Venerate Platform . ”
The scholar then added, “I also saw an opportunity for us to become Heavenly Venerates . ”
“Fallen Celestial Thearches? Who could it be? Although killings happen frequently on the Heavenly Venerate Platform, it is a tough task to kill a Celestial Thearch . ” The man who wore the crown seemed struck by a thought when he finished speaking . Then, he added in disbelief, “Could it be…”
“Yes, you’re right . That’s it!” The scholar said, “It should be starting soon . ”
“Is it going to work if both of them do that?” The man who wore the crown sounded unconvinced .
“As long as a Heavenly Venerate doesn’t take action, they’ll be the strongest . To them, normal Celestial Thearches are just like ants . ”
As soon as he said that, the scholar added emotionally, “It is a sad thing to not be able to become a Celestial Thearch with them, but dying at their hands is also a great blessing . ”
“It’s starting!”
As the scholar spoke, the Burning Emperor and the rest of the people seated in the small space opened their eyes almost at the same time . Their cultivation bases were very high and they were incomparably sensitive to danger .
Just as Luo Yunyang and Bai Jingtian set out, they received a mysterious and inexorable warning .
“They actually dare…” The Burning Emperor sounded angry . However, no one responded, as a man bearing a blade on his waist had just appeared in the small space they were residing in .
“Gentlemen, I’m here to send all of you off to your grave . ” Luo Yunyang looked at the people with calm eyes that were devoid of emotion .
He spoke as though this matter was totally insignificant .
