Boom!

The next moment!

The impact, twice as powerful as Liu Jiangyi's punch, rebounded from the gate.

Pfft!

The shockwave instantly pierced through Liu Jiangyi's body, shattering his internal organs and sending him flying a hundred meters away.

Liu Jiangyi collapsed to the ground, his entire body stained with blood.

Even his physical body, fortified by the Indestructible Body, was left with torn flesh and skin!

It wasn't that Immortal Sword Sect was powerful!

It was Liu Jiangyi himself who was too powerful!

The strongest spear struck the strongest shield.

And it was a spear twice as strong.

Naturally, the shield had to be pierced.

An unprecedented sense of impending death emerged in Liu Jiangyi's heart.

He wanted to move, to retrieve the tsar bomba from his System space, but his body was completely immobilized.

He lay on the ground, covered in blood, as miserable as a dead dog.

This was the most tragic moment Liu Jiangyi had experienced since acquiring the System, without exception!

He had never imagined that, even with the tsar bomba in hand, he could end up in such a predicament.

He was careless!

At the same time.

Grand Elder Ouyang Xiu and several other Elders, along with Li Changsheng and others, rushed over from a distance.

"Brother Liu? What happened to you!?"

Li Changsheng was shocked and moved to help Liu Jiangyi up.

"Stop!"

Elder Ouyang let out a cold shout, "This child killed a person of my Immortal Sword Sect; he is an enemy of my Immortal Sword Sect!"

"What?"

Li Changsheng said in disbelief, "This... this is impossible!"

"Brother Liu received an unparalleled Opportunity in the Immortal Sword Sect, how could he kill someone from the Immortal Sword Sect? Is there some misunderstanding here?"

"Misunderstanding?"

Elder Ouyang had already prepared an excuse and sneered, "This child is insatiable. After receiving an Opportunity from my Immortal Sword Sect, it wasn't enough; he actually tried to steal treasures from the Immortal Sword Sect's Treasure Pavilion."

"After being discovered by the Disciple guarding the gate, the Disciple exerted all his strength to stop him, even resorting to using a trump card Talisman, but ultimately died tragically at his hands."

"What? Stealing treasures?" Li Changsheng asked, puzzled, "Elder Ouyang, you... you must have made a mistake, right?"

"Heh heh, what this old man says naturally comes with evidence!"

With that, he walked over to Liu Jiangyi, casually fumbled at his waist, and actually pulled out a bronze key.

Damn it!

Liu Jiangyi was furious!

He couldn't speak at all right now, otherwise, how could he let this Bastard frame him like this?

"This is the key to my Immortal Sword Sect's Treasure Pavilion. Only three people in the entire Immortal Sword Sect possess this key: the Sect Master, the Disciple guarding the Treasure Pavilion, and the Grand Elder."

"But now the key is on this brat. Is this not evidence?"

"Furthermore, I just used a secret technique to investigate that pool of blood and found that it belongs to the Disciple guarding the Treasure Pavilion."

"That Disciple diligently guarded the gate for the Immortal Sword Sect's property for decades, and was originally going to be transferred to become an attendant this year, but he was actually beaten to death by this scoundrel. This is simply a disregard for my Immortal Sword Sect!"

Upon hearing this, Li Changsheng and the others all widened their eyes.

Other Disciples had already begun to furiously curse Liu Jiangyi for his greed.

Only Li Changsheng was still somewhat disbelieving.

He could tell that Liu Jiangyi was indeed a bit greedy, otherwise he wouldn't have drained the spiritual pool water dry.

But he couldn't shake the feeling that Liu Jiangyi shouldn't be so extreme.

However!

The Disciple he sent had indeed lost track of Liu Jiangyi.

As for the time of the crime, Liu Jiangyi really did have it!

And Liu Jiangyi had been running down the mountain just now; what else could that be but a guilty conscience?

Furthermore.

The aura of the fight over there was exactly the same as Liu Jiangyi's aura.

This indicated that it was indeed Liu Jiangyi who was fighting there.

All these coincidences combined, even if Li Changsheng was unwilling to believe it, he had to now.

However, he still asked his last question.

"Elder Ouyang, you said Liu Shan stole a treasure, what treasure did he steal?"

"The enlightenment stone!"

Boom!

As soon as the words 'enlightenment stone' came out, Li Changsheng and the others were completely stunned.

"What!? He actually stole the enlightenment stone? This Bastard deserves to die!"

"The enlightenment stone is a supreme treasure that can assist in a major Realm Breakthrough, especially for breaking through the Grandmaster, Martial Saint, and Great Martial Saint Realms. The enlightenment stone can not only improve the efficiency of Breakthrough but also protect the Breakthrough practitioner's Dantian from harm even if the Breakthrough fails. Moreover, the enlightenment stone can be used repeatedly; it is the absolute foundation of my Immortal Sword Sect. By stealing this, he wants to cut off the Immortal Sword Sect's future!"

"Find the enlightenment stone, we must find the enlightenment stone! If the enlightenment stone is gone, the future of the Immortal Sword Sect will be over!"

"Damn scoundrel, I knew he was a greedy person when he drained the spiritual pool water, but I never expected him to be this greedy!"

"Bastard, how has the Immortal Sword Sect ever treated him badly? How could he treat the Immortal Sword Sect like this? He is worse than a beast!"

The Disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect were completely enraged.

Only Li Changsheng remained relatively clear-headed.

He asked doubtfully, "The enlightenment stone is one of the most strictly guarded treasures in the Treasure Pavilion. Even with a key, it's not something that can be easily stolen. Are you sure he really stole the enlightenment stone?"

"Nonsense! The only thing missing from the entire Treasure Pavilion is the enlightenment stone; what else could he steal besides the enlightenment stone?"

"Furthermore, this kid's origin is strange. Who knows if he has some secret technique that can bypass Restrictions?"

"Finally, the aura of the enlightenment stone is very strong. Anyone who has been in contact with the enlightenment stone will have its scent on them. Everyone knows what the enlightenment stone smells like, so why don't you all go and smell him to see if he has that scent."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately swarmed forward.

"Holy crap! It really does!"

"And the scent is very strong; the smell of blood on him can't even cover up the scent of the enlightenment stone. He must have been with the enlightenment stone for a long time to have this scent!"

"Bastard! He actually dared to steal the enlightenment stone!"

The people were furious, wishing they could kill Liu Jiangyi.

With all these coincidences combined, Li Changsheng could no longer choose not to believe.

He said bitterly, "Take his qiankun bag. If the enlightenment stone is truly found on him, kill him without mercy!"

"Yes!"

Several Disciples immediately went to search him.

However!

How could Liu Jiangyi have such a thing?

All his belongings were in the System space; he didn't need a qiankun bag at all, okay?

After a while, several Disciples anxiously said, "He doesn't have a qiankun bag!"

"Impossible!" Li Changsheng retorted, "I personally saw him take a long sword from a qiankun bag, how could he not have one?"

Li Changsheng didn't know that Liu Jiangyi's qiankun bag was the System.

However, this scene was within Elder Ouyang's prediction.

When he went up to frame Liu Jiangyi just now, he had already casually felt Liu Jiangyi's waist and did not find a qiankun bag.

But whether Liu Jiangyi had a qiankun bag or not, he had a way to explain why the enlightenment stone wasn't there.
