"Shattered Gold Palm!"

After battling Yi Tian for hundreds of moves, Elder Chen San could no longer hold on and could not help but unleash his perfected combat technique, the Shattered Gold Palm.

The golden scales on Yi Tian's sword shone brilliantly, and the overwhelming Yang sword qi was unleashed to the fullest, slicing through the void and striking Elder Chen San's Shattered Gold Palm, exploding into a sky full of sword qi.

Elder Chen San's Shattered Gold Palm shattered Yi Tian's sword qi and collided with the Golden Scales Sword, causing a continuous clanging sound. He almost lost control of the high-grade spirit sword in his hand.

The Golden Scales Sword was left with deep palm marks by the Shattered Gold Palm, almost shattered.

However, at this moment, the true qi in Elder Chen San's body collapsed with a bang, and the remaining Yang sword qi carved deep and shallow wounds on his body, sending him flying.

Elder Chen San, at the late Ninth Rank, was defeated!

But at this moment, two figures suddenly emerged from the crowd, the Great Elders of the Liu and Wu families.

These two Great Elders directly attacked Yi Tian, stirring up surging true qi and slashing out terrifying sword qi, tearing through the void and rushing towards Yi Tian.

Yi Tian had anticipated this. Facing these two peak Ninth Rank powerhouses, he unleashed all his might, fully activating the Great Sun Heaven Art. Terrifying Yang true qi swirled within ten zhang of him, like a fiery domain. The Golden Scales Sword slashed out incomparable, scorching, and destructive sword qi.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The sword qi continuously collided and collapsed.

The terrifying power spread out, leaving the ground within dozens of zhang in a mess, with the thick rock-paved square pitted and uneven.

"Kill!"

The Great Elders of the Liu and Wu families attacked Yi Tian fiercely, their true qi condensed, blocking the surrounding shockwaves and charging into the fiery domain to engage in intense combat with Yi Tian.

Occasionally, their true qi exploded in violent collisions.

The tribal chief and the Great Clan Elder of the Yi tribe could no longer hold back; the Eight Great Families were bullying the smaller ones.

When they were about to act, several Great Elders of the Eight Great Families immediately rushed out to block their path.

Moreover, seeing that Yi Tian was not at a disadvantage under the attacks of the two Great Elders, two more Great Elders from the Eight Great Families joined the battle, four peak Ninth Rank powerhouses surrounding and attacking Yi Tian.

They had the intention to kill Yi Tian.

This time, no matter what, they had to crush the seed of hope for a human rank expert in its infancy.

At the same time, the tribal chief and the Great Clan Elder of the Yi tribe cursed them as shameless and immediately rushed forward to engage in fierce battles with the other Great Elders of the Eight Great Families. For a moment, the peak powerhouses of both sides erupted into a great battle.

The Eight Great Families and the Yi tribe stood off against each other.

Any movement from either side would likely lead to the most brutal final battle.

"Waiting for you to make a move!"

Facing the four peak Ninth Rank powerhouses, even Yi Tian felt immense pressure, with the constant threat of death, and was in a very awkward position.

But at this moment, Yi Tian smiled.

"Bad!"

Elder Chen San realized the situation was not good.

At this moment, a five-inch-long sword shadow appeared on Yi Tian's hand, somewhat illusory, but emitting an overwhelming aura, capable of swallowing the heavens. A world-shattering, overwhelming sword qi suddenly filled the entire mountaintop. All the martial artists felt a surge of power, making them feel as insignificant as ants in its presence.

In the next moment, the sword qi sliced through the void.

Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!

Instantly, the Heaven Sword Qi seemed to pierce through the air, breaking through the true qi defenses, piercing through their spirit weapons, and penetrating the heads, throats, and chests of the Great Elders of the Chen, Wu, and Liu families. It then pierced through the chest of the Great Elder of the Lin family and plunged into the distant forest, disappearing.

"Ah..."

The Great Elder of the Lin family retreated hundreds of zhang in terror. The sword had pierced through his chest, but it did not hit a vital point, or he would have been killed instantly.

Even so, he was severely injured and had to take a spirit pill.

In front of the ancestral temple on the mountaintop, the originally tense atmosphere suddenly fell silent, and the battle between the tribal chief Yi Du and the Great Clan Elder and the other four peak Ninth Rank powerhouses came to a halt.

At this moment, the martial artists of the Eight Great Families looked at Yi Tian in fear.

Yi Tian's attack just now was too terrifying, killing three peak Ninth Rank powerhouses and severely injuring another.

The four Great Elders, including Xu Family's Great Elder, all retreated, returning to their armies of the Eight Great Families. Only the presence of these hundreds of high-rank martial artists and the ten thousand martial artists' army gave them some sense of security.

"This is the outcome of your greed!"

Yi Tian looked at the Great Elders of the other families and said, "If you dare to take one more step, today will be your end. Don't doubt me; I can take your lives even among ten thousand martial artists."

"Your lives are in your hands. Will you continue the attack and be killed by me, or will you retreat with your family's forces and save your lives?"

Yi Tian's words fell on the ears of the Great Elders like rolling thunder.

The killing intent contained in them made them feel extremely cold.

They did not know if Yi Tian could still unleash that move after using it once. If they made a wrong judgment, they might die in the Yi tribe today.

After all, with Yi Tian's peak Ninth Rank strength, he could move freely even among a group of high-rank martial artists, and pursuing and killing them would not be difficult.

They had almost no chance of escaping from Yi Tian.

These Great Elders of the various families were somewhat indecisive.

They were extremely wary of Yi Tian's killing move, which had killed three peak Ninth Rank powerhouses and severely injured another, likely reaching the attack level of a human rank expert.

However, the Great Elders of the Liu, Chen, and Wu families being killed by Yi Tian on the spot made the members of these three families and the direct and collateral branches of the various families extremely angry.

These were their highly esteemed Great Elders, the strongest combat forces of their families, but they were killed by the other side today.

The heads of the three families and the elders all wished to mobilize all their forces to raze the Yi tribe and Yi Tian to the ground.

"Great Elders, we have ten thousand martial artists at our disposal, and we can definitely overwhelm that boy. We cannot hesitate. If we miss this opportunity and let the other side grow, the end of our Eight Great Families will come."

At this moment, the head of the Wu family, Wu Shigong, was somewhat panicked but still persuaded the Xu family and other families to act to eliminate the threat.

The heads of the Liu and Chen families and the various elders had already decided to kill.

At this moment, after unleashing the Heaven Sword Qi, he secretly condensed it again, transforming the overwhelming Yang true qi into Heaven Sword Qi. When a few-inch-long sword qi floated above his dantian, his true qi was almost depleted.

In other words, he could only unleash the Heaven Sword Qi once more, and after using it, his strength would be greatly reduced due to the lack of true qi.

The tribal chief, the Great Clan Elders, the Great Leader, the various captains, and the high-rank martial artists of the Yi tribe saw this and felt a surge of excitement. This disaster might turn into an opportunity.

Yi Tian's strength shocked all the high-rank warriors of the tribe.

He killed three peak Ninth Rank powerhouses and severely injured another with one move, a truly astonishing feat.

Now, Yi Tian alone had intimidated the Great Elders and heads of the various families.

"We are all humans, and I do not want to cause more bloodshed. You should retreat. I can forgive the past, but if you are still driven by greed, you will likely leave your lives here. Once you die, everything is over, and your dreams of achieving human rank will be shattered. Think carefully."

Yi Tian said calmly.

At the same time, a Heaven Sword Qi appeared on his hand, and the terrifying Heaven Sword Intent once again enveloped the space, as if it would break through the air and take the lives of the powerhouses at any moment.

The Great Elders and heads of the various families were all solemn.

They looked at the sword qi on Yi Tian's hand and could sense the terrifying killing intent it contained.

This was a sword qi that could kill peak Ninth Rank powerhouses like slicing through vegetables, and none of them could resist it.

"Our Lin family will withdraw. We hope you will keep your word and forgive the past!"

The first to propose withdrawal was the Great Elder of the Lin family, who was severely injured by Yi Tian.

When the Lin family took the lead, the heads of the Xu, Li, Liu, and Tie families also expressed their intention to withdraw from the operation.
