"No way?"

"What can't he do? Who is he? He is Zhao Xuan. What is there to be afraid of?"

"Our luck is so bad, how come we run into this killer again?"

They spoke one by one, not hiding their panic at all.

They crawled to their feet from the ground, fearing that if they were too late, the huge sword hanging above their heads would suddenly fall and kill them all.

Zhao Xuan didn't need to stand behind them to hear clearly what they were saying.

If it was a few hundred years ago, he wouldn't mind scaring them out of boredom, but now...

He suddenly lost the idea.

It seemed that after this sleep, his mentality had undergone subtle changes, and he was no longer interested in things that he once found interesting.

He didn't bother to care why Yu Tenglin and the other idiots showed up here. With their qualifications, even Yu Fang could pin them down with just one hand.

There is no need for Zhao Xuan to take any action at all.

Zhao Xuan moved the Ghost Crying Mountain and turned it into a sharp sword, which soon attracted a group of demons to watch.

Yu Tenglin and his group of Celestial Clan members on the opposite side were so frightened that they quickly flew away on clouds. When they left, Yu Tenglin and his group of idiots almost forgot the mantra.

Zhao Xuan was too lazy to chase them. Even if the Ghost Crying Mountain was moved away, given the temperament of the Celestial Clan, they would not dare to cause trouble again for the time being.

He set up a barrier to liberate the countless souls left behind by the tragic deaths within the Heart-Eating Sword.

The soul lock not only locked up the 200,000 demons who had sacrificed the sword, but also the countless innocent souls who had died under the Heart-Eating Sword over the years.

It is precisely because of this that the Heart-Eating Sword became increasingly out of control, until it finally backfired on the sword's master who controlled them.

When being liberated, countless black mists emanated from the Heart-Eating Sword. Each ray of black mist represented a person, and they separated from the sword as they did so.

Zhao Xuan will have to consume some of his cultivation to extradite them to the underworld and let them reincarnate.

Countless black fogs surrounded Zhao Xuan tightly in the red barrier, and the demons who were isolated outside the barrier were amazed.

In the past, they had only heard about Zhao Xuan's power from others, but had never seen it with their own eyes.

Seeing something with your own eyes is of a completely different nature than hearing about it.

When they witnessed with their own eyes how Zhao Xuan spent three days and three nights to lead all the millions of souls trapped in the sword into the underworld and reincarnation, many young demons came to admire Zhao Xuan.

The Celestial Clan also sent people to supervise Zhao Xuan, wanting to see what Zhao Xuan was planning to do. After this news was passed back to the Emperor of Heaven, the Emperor's face gradually darkened. He didn't say anything, but just asked them to keep watching.

On the way, Zhongli came to the Wailing River. He brought so many dead souls into the underworld at once, which added a lot of workload to him. Naturally, he wanted to come and see who exactly this person was!

When Zhongli saw Zhao Xuan whom he had not seen for a long time, he was stunned at first, and then he smiled knowingly, "No wonder, I was wondering who was so powerful that he could ferry so many dead souls into the underworld at once, it turned out to be you!"

Zhao Xuan was not surprised to see Zhongli ascend to heaven. Yu Fang told him that Zhongli was now in charge of the affairs of the underworld.

Therefore, he was polite for once and nodded to Zhongli, "Sorry, I have caused you some trouble."

Zhongli, "...This is not a small problem. There are millions of dead souls. It will take a long time to clean up so many."

Zhao Xuan smiled, knowing that Zhongli was not really fussy about it, "They should have entered the reincarnation cycle long ago."

As he finished speaking, many dead souls formed black figures and bowed deeply in the direction of Zhao Xuan to express their gratitude.

These souls have been locked in this sword for too long.

It lasted so long that they almost thought they would never be able to make a breakthrough and would be banned forever.

Although they were suddenly released, some ghosts with too much resentment were still unwilling to accept their fate and tried to attack the barrier, wanting to drag some demons to death.

Of course, there was no way Zhao Xuan would miss this matter.

The barrier was set up long before the ban was lifted and they were extradited into reincarnation.

The purpose of this red barrier is, on the one hand, to prevent innocent people from being harmed when resentment spreads.

On the one hand, they are worried that there may be situations where the dead souls are unwilling to give in and are filled with resentment and still want to kill people.

Look, those wronged souls were simply unable to break through the barrier set up by Zhao Xuan, even though a group of demons were right in front of them.

The black fog could not penetrate the barrier and hurt them in the slightest.

"If you hurt innocent people again, I don't mind suppressing you in the Wailing River."

Seeing that those ghosts still wanted to try, Zhao Xuan reinforced the barrier and warned them coldly.

With his words, the unwilling dead souls hung their heads and went to reincarnate unwillingly.

...Who made them unable to defeat Zhao Xuan?

Zhongli witnessed this scene without saying a word. His eyes gradually became blurred, as if he remembered something.

As for the demons guarding the river bank, they did not make a sound, for fear of disturbing the souls that Zhao Xuan was currently rescuing.

For three days and three nights, Zhao Xuan did not stop and led all the souls originally sealed in the sword to the underworld.

For any god, this would be extremely exhausting in terms of energy and divine power.

With such a large number of people, even if it was Qingtian, whose cultivation had improved in the past few hundred years, he could not guarantee that he could save them all at once.

It is even more impossible to complete the salvation in one go.

However, what they couldn't do, Zhao Xuan could do.

When the black fog surrounding him disappeared completely, the next moment, Zhao Xuan removed the red barrier.

Zhongli left quietly during the time when Zhao Xuan was performing the ritual of salvation.

He didn't want to alarm Zhao Xuan. What Zhao Xuan did was also a good deed.

Especially since the current owner of the Heart-Eating Sword is Zhao Xuan. No matter whether Zhao Xuan knows the forging process of the Heart-Eating Sword or not, anyone who dies under his sword will be held responsible.

This is why, even though it was the Heart-Eating Sword that controlled Zhao Xuan and manipulated him to kill many people from the Celestial Clan, the account was still held against him.

As Zhao Xuan controls the Heart-Eating Sword, cause and effect will be entangled with him and become karma.

The natal sword is not an ordinary sword, you can change it whenever you want.

The natal sword will last along with the life of the sword's owner. It can not only exert its strongest power, but also affect the sword's owner when the sword is injured, broken or damaged.

Therefore, even if Zhao Xuan wanted to replace the Heart-Eating Sword, it was not up to him to decide.

Among the many methods, the best one is to lead all the souls sealed in the sword into reincarnation and eliminate the resentment attached to the sword.

Only by sending all the dead souls into reincarnation, the Heart-Eating Sword will no longer control Zhao Xuan's consciousness due to excessive resentment.

Zhao Xuan had rarely performed extradition techniques, especially a formation that lasted for so long.

The Heart-Eating Sword has experienced millions of dead souls over too many years. During these years, it has been passed down many times, and no one knows how many owners have died. It has long since become an evil sword with a strong sense of hostility.

If we continue to strengthen the formation that seals the souls of the dead, the power of the sword will increase day by day.

On the contrary, all the souls in the sword were led away, and the resentment naturally dissipated.

The resentment was gone, and the effect of the Heart-Eating Sword disappeared by a large margin. It was no longer the weapon that could intimidate the entire Celestial Clan.

Zhao Xuan watched the last few wisps of mist leave, bowed, and nodded slightly without saying anything.
