Chapter 495: Heading to Qinghua Realm to Shame Xu Yansnow!
Chapter 495: Heading to Qinghua Realm to Shame Xu Yansnow!
In a distant castle, a Tianhe Realm cultivator met their demise.
Another warrior from the Wanbao Alliance turned pale with fright and tried to flee.
"Where do you think you're going?"
Chimao sneered and blocked their escape route with a swift movement.
Cornered, the Wanbao Alliance expert gritted his teeth and, in a desperate move, lunged not at Chimao but at Yu Xiaolong on the ground, unleashing a powerful attack.
Yu Xiaolong: ???
Chimao was taken aback. Why was this guy targeting Yu Xiaolong instead of him?
Could it be that he knew Yu Xiaolong was the Second Demon King and intended to take this opportunity to slay him, hoping to have someone to share his fate?
Roar!
Yu Xiaolong, the little dragon, wanted to cry but had no tears. He let out a dragon's roar, his body shrinking instantly as he transformed into a green light and disappeared from the spot.
Caught off guard and still weakened from Chimao's earlier beating, he could only dodge the powerful attack.
"You can't escape!" The Wanbao Alliance warrior's eyes turned bloodshot as he resorted to a secret technique that drained his essence and blood, relentlessly pursuing Yu Xiaolong.
"Even if I die, I'll take the demon race with me!" he shouted in madness.
Yu Xiaolong felt like spitting blood. Although he was a true dragon, he had no connection to the True Dragon Clan, and his death would go unnoticed by them, let alone spark a desire for revenge.
Unfortunately, the Wanbao Alliance warrior was unaware of this fact.
All he knew was that his death was certain.
And since this true dragon had clearly been injured, likely by the demon race, the True Dragon Clan would surely seek vengeance. By implicating the demon race, his death would be avenged by the true dragons.
This act would secure his place in the annals of martial arts history, making him a legend.
In the face of imminent death, the Wanbao Alliance warrior's mind raced, and he devised a desperate plan. Rather than fighting the Great Demon King to his inevitable demise, he chose a different path that might lead to the True Dragons avenging his death. At least then, his death would not be in vain!
"Stop him!" Yu Xiaolong's face turned green. What kind of lunatic was this?
Croak!
Little Ha opened his mouth, and in an instant, a demonic aura enveloped Yu Xiaolong, pulling him out of harm's way and saving him from the fatal blow.
Just as the Wanbao Alliance warrior was about to unleash another burst of power, Chimao didn't give him the chance.
A ferocious blade light descended, engulfing him.
When the light faded, the warrior was still alive, albeit badly injured and paralyzed on the ground, devoid of any strength to resist or escape.
"Die!" Yu Xiaolong, having regained his wits, raised his claw to finish off the enemy.
Smack!
Chimao slapped him to the ground with his tiger claw.
"We can't kill him yet!" Yu Xiaolong was exasperated. He had thought that sparing the enemy was meant to give him the satisfaction of delivering the final blow, but it seemed he was mistaken.
"Why?" Yu Xiaolong asked.
Chimao chuckled. "Since these two are from the Wanbao Alliance and they showed up here, guess who their target is?"
Yu Xiaolong paused, then realized. "They must be Wanbao Alliance experts who have broken through and now think they can take revenge on Meng Chong!"
"Long live the Great King!"
A chorus of cheers erupted from the demon generals and demon commanders, with Feng Linghu's voice being the loudest.
Chimao was pleased. To become a demon general or commander, one must possess a quick wit. This group had passed the test.
He was especially satisfied with Feng Linghu's performance, having once guided him; his improved wit showed.
"I need to make a trip back, and you two better hold down the fort here in the demon realm." Chimao said, addressing Yu Xiaolong and Little Ha.
"Croak!"
Little Ha croaked, indicating his desire to return as well.
"Then let's go together." Chimao nodded and proceeded to make arrangements for the demon realm, leaving Yu Xiaolong, the Second Demon King, in charge.
Taihe Realm.
Boom!
A violent vibration rocked the already fallen Diying Realm, causing dao patterns to emerge and spiritual energy to surge. A storm of spiritual energy erupted from it, sweeping across the entire Divine Realm.
The laws of heaven and earth manifested, and their power intensified as the dao patterns spread to the other thirty-seven realms of the Divine Realm.
The Divine Realm was merging with the Dao Realm.
The entire world was undergoing a transformation.
As the spiritual energy storm raged and the dao patterns permeated the Divine Realm, the martial arts limits of all realms except Taihe were about to be shattered.
Moreover, cultivators who had been stuck at bottlenecks would, in this surge of spiritual energy and emergence of dao patterns, break through their obstacles and enter new realms.
Suddenly, a mist appeared, and a shadowy figure silently materialized before him.
"Master!" Tian Shiqi's expression turned solemn, and he quickly bowed respectfully.
Yin Jue seemed like a shadow, as if he could disappear at any moment, and his voice was equally elusive, making it impossible to pinpoint its origin.
"Where is Xu Yan, and what is the situation there?" Yin Jue asked.
Tian Shiqi respectfully replied, "Reporting to Master, Xu Yan is in the Qinghua Realm, and he has taken the true dragon back with him. As for the specifics, it's hard to tell as the Qinghua Realm is sealed, and no information can get out."
"The Qinghua Realm?" Yin Jue murmured to himself before continuing, "I need to make a trip there, but I can't go directly. I need you to create some disturbance."
If there truly was a Realm Lord-level expert in the Qinghua Realm, even with the help of the Mist Beast's true spirit, there was still a risk of exposure. Thus, some distraction was necessary to better infiltrate the area.
"Yes, Master, I know what to do," Tian Shiqi replied after a moment's thought.
"There are Immortal Honored warriors in the Divine Realm who have broken through the upper limit and entered the Heavenly Harmony Realm. Many of them hold grudges against Xu Yan and intend to seek revenge for the humiliation they suffered. If we give them a nudge and get them to join forces to invade the Qinghua Realm and challenge Xu Yan, it will create an opportunity for you."
Yin Jue nodded in agreement. "Then let's do that. Your ability to handle matters is commendable, or Lord Tian Sha wouldn't have sent you to take charge of this important matter in the Divine Realm."
"Master, you flatter me," Tian Shiqi said humbly.
"The stabilization of the Shadow Realm won't take long. We must act before warriors from other forces enter the Divine Realm. Get to it quickly," Yin Jue instructed before disappearing without a trace, as if he had never been there.
Tian Shiqi marveled at the incredible stealth technique. In the entire Shadow Realm, only a handful of people possessed such skills, including the enigmatic Lord of the Shadow Realm.
"It's Master Yin Jue!" Tian Shiqi concluded.
The fact that the Master had sent Yin Jue meant that he attached great importance to the person backing Xu Yan.
"It's time for me to act as well," Tian Shiqi thought, as he began making his own plans.
In another part of the Divine Realm, several Heavenly Harmony Realm warriors gathered.
"Are you sure you want to go after Xu Yan to avenge the humiliation?" one of them asked solemnly.
"Of course!" came the cold reply. "Are you content with such disgrace? Don't you want to break free from the mental shackles he's imposed and rid yourself of his influence?
"Now that the Divine Realm and the Dao Realm are merging, we all have a chance to aspire to even higher realms. Even the Divine Honored Realm is within reach.
"But if we don't eliminate the impact Xu Yan has left on our minds, it will undoubtedly hinder our cultivation. Are you willing to be stuck in the Heavenly Harmony Realm forever?
"Just like before, when we were stuck at the Immortal Realm and could only wait desperately for the Heavenly Ladder to open, hoping for a chance to enter the Dao Realm?
"Whether it's to avenge our humiliation or to break free from our mental barriers and strive for higher realms, we cannot retreat now!"
The speaker's anger grew, his face reddening and his breath becoming heavy.
As the other Heavenly Harmony Realm warriors listened, their breaths quickened as they recalled the scene in the Tai Miao Realm.
They remembered how Xu Yan had scolded them, a group of Immortal Honored warriors, making them too intimidated to even breathe, let alone retaliate.
Ever since they had broken through to the Immortal Realm, each of them had held a position of power and influence. When had they ever been subjected to such humiliation?
The idea that the incident hadn't affected them mentally was simply unbelievable.
"You're right! Whether it's to avenge our past humiliation or to break free from his influence, we must confront Xu Yan and demand an explanation. Otherwise, we will never be able to escape his shadow for the rest of our lives!"
One by one, the others voiced their agreement.
It was as if an invisible hand was stirring up their emotions, and one after another, Heavenly Harmony Realm warriors gathered, all seeking to hold Xu Yan accountable.
As their numbers grew, so did their courage. With their strengths far surpassing what they had been in the past, how could they still fear Xu Yan?
Moreover, they had been stuck at the peak of the Immortal Realm for many years, only held back by the cultivation limit of the Divine Realm. Now that the limit had been broken, they had quickly advanced to the Heavenly Harmony Realm.
But then, it made sense. After all, the Jiang family was connected to Jiang Feng, the Taikun Realm's realm lord, and Jiang Buling was his descendant. The family would not act rashly and would likely wait for instructions from the Dao Realm.
Undoubtedly, as an exceptionally talented genius of the Jiang family, Jiang Buling would be favored by the elders.
If they were to target Jiang Buling now, it would surely incur the wrath of the Taikun Realm's Jiang family elders.
"Let's go to the Qinghua Realm and shame Xu Yan!"
A massive group of warriors, akin to an army marching to punish an evil criminal, made their way towards the Qinghua Realm. Along the journey, they continuously stirred up tensions and exerted pressure.
Within this crowd was a young man carrying a long sword on his back, walking silently with a hint of crimson ferocity in his eyes as he occasionally glanced forward.
The long sword on his back was wrapped tightly in leather, concealing even the hilt.
While the accompanying warriors found the young man's behavior of carrying his sword instead of storing it in a pouch a bit odd, the martial arts world was filled with all sorts of eccentric individuals, so it wasn't particularly unusual.
"Boy, seize the opportunity to hunt down an Immortal Venerable and refine your Blood Hell Demon Sword. The more blood refining it undergoes, the stronger the sword becomes. With this sword, you can withstand Jiang Buling's soul secret technique. It's an extremely powerful secret art of the Blood Devil Path!"
A voice resonated within the young man's soul.
"Ancestor, I understand," the young man replied.
"Good. You have the potential to accomplish great things, unlike that waste from the Jiang family," Blood Extreme praised.
Thinking of Jiang Tianming, he felt a pang of loss for the portion of his soul that had perished.
In a sense, that Jiang Buling was also his enemy!
As the formidable group of warriors traveled, their numbers swelled with more and more Immortal Venerables joining in. Although most of them were there merely to witness the spectacle, their presence added to the overwhelming show of force, surpassing even the scale of the previous hunt for the true dragon.
"You!"
An Immortal Venerable who had just left the group to take care of some matters before rejoining to watch the fun found himself pierced through the chest by a blood-red long sword.
His vital essence drained, and his blood boiled as if it had reached its boiling point.
Pu!
An Immortal Venerable fell, and the young man withdrew his sword, disposing of the shriveled corpse before once again wrapping his blood-red long sword in leather.
The occasional disappearance of a few Immortal Venerables from the group seeking to shame Xu Yan went unnoticed, as it wasn't unusual for some to drop out.
"What's this?"
Hidden within the group, Yin Jue's eyebrows furrowed as he observed the young man.
"The Blood Hell Devil's Path, is this the doing of one of the Blood Kings, or perhaps the Blood Master himself?"
Yin Jue stared at the young man intently, deep in thought. "The seed of a Blood Devil's avatar... Is one of the Blood Masters infiltrating to cultivate an avatar in the Divine Realm?"
Since a Blood Master was likely pulling the strings from behind the scenes, Yin Jue had no intention of interfering. His task was to hunt down Xu Yan's master. As for the infiltration of the Blood Hell, others would handle it.
