Chapter 608: The Ancestral Stele Appears!
Chapter 608: The Ancestral Stele Appears!
Boom!
The murky water surged like a raging dragon, pounding heavily against the towering pillar that reached the heavens.
In the dark and oppressive sky, divine light flickered, stretching for thousands of miles, transforming into a magnificent landscape painting that spanned the entire world. Within, voices clamored, as if an immortal realm had descended upon the mortal world, devoid of any peaceful aura, only an air of authority and killing intent quietly spreading.
Such a display from the Boundless Dao Monarch Sect, perhaps for the first time in many years, was happening in Western Flood.
And this time, two of them appeared.
The two landscape paintings faced each other from afar, enveloping the entire mountain range, making the once towering Mountain-Shifting Sect seem insignificant and fragile beneath this vast landscape. It appeared as if it might collapse at any moment.
"The Boundless Dao Monarch Sect is here with anger. Quick, withdraw..."
The nearby curious creatures quickly noticed something amiss.
Although they had limited knowledge, they were aware that the Boundless Dao Monarch Sect valued the education and enlightenment of all beings, and its path was one of the orthodox Dragon Gate, where everyone could become like dragons. Yet, at this moment, the sect was showing an extremely domineering side, clearly not here for a friendly visit to the Mountain-Shifting Sect.
"What are they doing?"
Under the shimmering light of a falling dragon pearl, Ye Jiu's eyelids twitched slightly. Although he was the sharp sword of Southern Flood, known for his loyalty, he was also a very emotional person. Otherwise, he wouldn't have given up the opportunity to kill the Southern Dragon King to save Qi Yansheng.
The actions of the Mountain-Shifting Sect's leader resonated with his personality.
Now, seeing their allied sect being bullied, a flicker of anger ignited within Ye Jiu: "Even if they want to find someone or conduct an interrogation, is it necessary to display such an attitude as if they're about to wipe out the entire sect?"
"They're trying to establish their authority."
Zi Xian glanced at Prince Ziyang beside her, feeling a bit guilty. Obviously, due to her brother's assertiveness, the already sensitive Boundless Dao Monarch Sect felt their not-so-solid position being challenged.
Especially here in Western Flood, a place they had initially looked down upon.
Now, taking action, they were undoubtedly trying to show the entire Western Flood the might of the Boundless Dao Monarch Sect.
In short, a nouveau riche had encountered the original local tycoon of Hongze, and naturally, they wanted to flaunt their wealth to bolster their own status.
Unfortunately for the Mountain-Shifting Sect, they had become the target for this display of power.
"..."
Upon hearing this, the three leaders of Southern Flood turned their gaze towards Prince Ziyang.
If they hadn't come, it would have been fine, but now, with them present, not to mention Ye Jiu and Ji Jing Xi, even the most level-headed Qi Yansheng would find it difficult to stand by and watch the Mountain-Shifting Sect being annihilated.
"Hmm."
Prince Ziyang was well aware of Ye Jiu's temperament. In the past, the two had engaged in fierce competitions and mutual tests of strength, nearly fighting each other to death, which ultimately forged their friendship.
"I guarantee the safety of the Mountain-Shifting Sect, but not at this moment."
He gazed into the distant sky, where above the two landscape paintings, two figures sat, each adorned in magnificent yellow robes.
Even the mighty Eastern Dragon Palace had to consider the circumstances.
For instance, earlier, when the Western Dragon Palace sought aid to deal with the Ten Thousand Demon Hall, since he had come, it was only natural that the Eastern Dragon Palace would take the lead, with others following their command.
But now, the situation was different. The Boundless Dao Monarch Sect had chosen not to get involved and instead sought revenge on their own, having no connection to the Eastern Dragon Palace. If he forcibly intervened, it might seem like an overreach.
Prince Ziyang understood these cultivators very well.
He looked at the three: "Find a way to send a message to the Mountain-Shifting Sect, telling them to prepare in advance. Protect the creatures within the sacred land, and no matter what happens, remain calm. Regardless of the Boundless Dao Monarch Sect's inquiries, just insist on not knowing anything."
Let the Boundless Dao Monarch Sect vent their anger and showcase their methods. If they still insist on creating slaughter, then with the reputation of the Purple Beard White Dragon Clan, intervening at this point would also provide a reasonable explanation.
"Alright."
Ji Jing Xi quickly took out a jade slip. What she feared the most now was prolonging the situation, allowing Shen Yi to learn about this matter.
"What do you mean...?" Qi Yansheng frowned, quickly turning his gaze back to the Mountain-Shifting Sect.
After all, the Boundless Dao Monarch Sect was a revered immortal sect, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it the leader of cultivators. Could they truly be so reckless in their actions?
"Heh," Prince Ziyang narrowed his eyes, watching the two figures in the landscape paintings without responding, only letting out a cold laugh.
As if to validate his words, Fu Hai Su and Shi Lianchang calmly looked down, showing no intention of presenting a formal letter or even introducing themselves.
The two seemed to have a tacit understanding as they raised their palms and simultaneously pressed downward.
In an instant, the landscape paintings began to slowly roll, as if an invisible pressure was pushing down on the mountain. The towering pillar trembled slightly, but the shaking ceased within a breath.
The grand array shattered without any warning.
However, the two didn't stop, calmly observing the countless cracks that appeared on the mountain, and as the rocky skin peeled away, what was revealed at the gaps wasn't the mountain's interior but a corner of an iceberg from another realm.
One by one, faces filled with terror looked outside, daring not to move, their livers and gallbladders splitting with fear, yet they still struggled to maintain another formation to prevent the outer sect from being affected.
"No wonder there are seventeen branch sects; they are indeed very skilled."
Ye Jiu closed his eyes, a smile appearing on his face, a sinister grin hidden within.
It was clear that the Boundless Dao Monarch Sect had performed the technique of destroying sects more than once.
Including this time, they first destroyed the sect and then questioned the survivors, acting with such arrogance that the nonchalance on the two men's faces was the most chilling aspect.
It was said that after achieving Fusion Realm, one would become a small world, shouldering the lives of all beings, and naturally, one's heart would become more compassionate.
But at this moment, in the eyes of these two grandmasters of the Boundless Dao Monarch Sect, all living beings were like straw dogs, and they truly embodied the essence of heaven and earth.
"Stop!"
A figure with reddened eyes burst out from the mountain, Huang Wenfa in a state of unprecedented frenzy, brandishing his large sword and stomping his legs as he charged towards the celestial vault.
However, after taking less than ten steps, he was halted by an invisible force, as if bound by vines, unable to move at all.
He could only twist his face, spitting and cursing at the sky, "You dog, if you have a problem, come at me, Huang Ye! What's the point of venting your anger on this sacred ground?"
This late Earth Realm cultivator, in the eyes of Fu Hai Su and Shi Lianchang, seemed no different from the other living beings in the sacred ground, and his curses were as light as the wind, not even worth a glance from the two.
The towering pillar finally collapsed.
A brand new inner sect world slowly came into view.
Countless disciples and elders stared at the celestial vault in shock, their hands that maintained the formation beginning to tremble.
This was the world that had sheltered them since birth.
But now, the sky had fallen.
"Isn't it enough?!" Ye Jiu suddenly turned around, and the radiant longsword landed in his palm.
"It's enough."
Prince Ziyang exhaled lightly and stepped out from behind the dragon pearl, "Wait here for me."
"Don't worry, he's fine." Zi Xian gently reassured the several Nanyang Sect Masters.
In this place of Hongze, there were rarely any problems that his brother couldn't resolve; it was just a matter of finding a suitable pretext.
Before her words had even finished, Zi Xian noticed her brother slowly coming to a stop.
She became a bit agitated, "Can't you stop waiting! Are you trying to make people anxious?!"
"..."
Prince Ziyang frowned, staring ahead, then turned back after a moment, "Who is that?"
Upon hearing this, everyone took a step forward, looking towards the direction of the Mountain-Shifting Sect.
Fu Hai Su and Shi Lianchang's gazes also landed on the same spot.
Within the exposed inner sect of the Mountain-Shifting Sect, a tall ancestral hall was rapidly collapsing under invisible pressure, turning into dust, its beams breaking, revealing its true form.
In the ruins of the hall, a figure sat cross-legged.
His waist-length black hair was in disarray, and his black robe fluttered slightly, his entire body slightly hunched over, looking somewhat disheveled.
Especially his pale and handsome face, which now looked as if he was suffering from a severe illness, his eyes filled with bloodshot veins, and a hint of confusion.
There were traces of vomit still on the corners of his lips.
He slightly raised his eyes, first scanning his surroundings, and then looking towards the horizon.
As his bloodshot eyes stared, Fu Hai Su raised his eyebrows, slowly taking out something resembling a sundial, and a blood-red light shone upon it, casting a shadow.
The shadow spun wildly on the sundial and finally stopped, pointing towards the direction below, directly at the black-robed figure!
"Heh! Heh!"
A sinister smile finally appeared on Fu Hai Su's face, and he leaned forward, his voice deep like a bronze bell, "I ask you..."
As soon as he spoke, his expression changed slightly.
In the midst of the shattered ancestral hall, the young man in black robes stood up slowly, as if the invisible pressure didn't affect him.
He looked woodenly, patted his robe, and when his long fingers fell, a golden rune black blade appeared in his palm.
The blade's edge slanted towards the ground.
The young man lifted his head, his hoarse voice as if awakening from a deep sleep, carrying a hint of fatigue.
"Shh."
He raised his index finger to his lips, a faint arc forming at the corners of his mouth, and whispered, "Save your questions for the next life."
As his words drifted away, a fleeting trace of chilling killing intent suddenly appeared in his smile.
"Tsk."
In that instant, Prince Ziyang had his answer.
Turning back to look at the expressions on their faces, his answer became even more certain.
"You guessed right, this is Shen Yi."
Zi Xian forcefully touched her forehead, glaring at him with annoyance, "You like to wait, don't you! Now it's all over!"
"..."
Prince Ziyang wasn't quite sure why a Mid Heaven Realm cultivator could kill Yue Gonggui and make even the proud Ye Jiu show such an expression.
He was even more unclear how the man dared to speak so arrogantly to the two grandmasters of the Boundless Dao Monarch Sect.
Apparently, Fu Hai Su and Shi Lianchang didn't understand either.
The two men paused for a moment, their expressions turning indifferent once more, indicating their genuine anger, unlike their previous act before the Northern Flood.
The Ten Thousand Miles Mountain Map transformed into an immense curtain, sweeping towards Shen Yi.
Amidst the curtain, figures appeared, seemingly responding to a heavenly call, all with palms pressed together, chanting incessantly.
"Dao Emperor Exorcism!"
To ensure a successful strike, the two unleashed profound Dao techniques.
Facing the all-encompassing curtain, feeling their divine souls being torn, Shen Yi lowered his palm, and his eyes were filled with gray mist, which soon dissipated.
Ten Thousand Tribulations Heartless Dao.
Having experienced countless hardships, he had become an unfeeling immortal, unaffected by such clamor.
The gray mist surged against the storm, directly seeping into the mountain map, then at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, it frantically stained the entire map.
As the chanting crowd suddenly became numb, their once tightly clasped palms gradually weakened and dropped, and the surroundings became quiet again.
Pfft—
Shen Yi raised his sword, and the black golden aura that spanned the heavens and earth rose with a dragon's roar, fiercely piercing the mountain map, and then he slashed out!
"Retreat!"
Fu Hai Su sensed something amiss and hurriedly shouted.
Shi Lianchang reacted swiftly, leaping up to temporarily distance himself from the map.
The next moment, he watched as Shen Yi, holding his sword, stepped out from the tear in the map. His face, hidden behind messy strands of hair, remained calm, and he approached Shi Lianchang with a clear purpose.
It was as if he was looking at a dying man.
"Heh!"
Shi Lianchang was unsure of his opponent's strength and had no intention of a direct confrontation. He planned to return to the Dao Palace first.
He transformed into a streak of light, rushing towards the Dao Palace.
Just as he was about to land on the meditation cushion, Shen Yi calmly watched and tightened his grip on the sword's hilt.
In an instant, the entire world seemed to freeze.
The streak of light that had rushed into the Dao Palace, as if struck by a divine mountain, had a figure tumbling out, falling straight towards the ground.
With a loud thud, Shi Lianchang raised his head, seeing the young man standing tall, his face looking down indifferently.
Finally, a hint of panic appeared on his face. "Boundless Dao..."
As he was about to finish his incantation, the Dao Palace above him descended, enveloping Shi Lianchang's entire body in golden light.
But his words abruptly stopped.
The gray mist in Shen Yi's eyes intensified, and his right arm thrust out, the black golden aura on the long sword emitting a sharp dragon's roar.
Even the armored Malevolent Unicorn couldn't withstand the Azure Dragon Devouring the Sun, let alone a single Dao technique.
The golden light before the sword's edge was as fragile as thin paper.
Before Shi Lianchang could finish his last word, he stared blankly as the sword pierced his chest, and the black golden aura began tearing at his Dao babe's internal organs.
However, as a senior Branch Sect Master of the Boundless Dao Monarch Sect,
He wouldn't be caught off guard in a battle.
Almost instantly, he propped himself up, tightly hugging Shen Yi's leg, and screamed, "Please Ancestor..."
Boom! Shen Yi casually slapped the back of his hand onto Shi Lianchang's face, and his entire head exploded into a cloud of blood.
From start to finish, he didn't spare Shi Lianchang a second glance.
Even when a phantom suddenly burst out of the slowly falling body, rushing towards the mountain map, it still couldn't capture his interest.
"Fu Hai Su, protect me for now!"
The phantom maintained its composure, quickly fleeing without hesitation.
As long as he returned to the Dao Palace, the battle had only just begun, and the Ancestor Stele hadn't been summoned yet; he still had many tricks up his sleeve!
At that moment, two massive ferocious tiger phantoms emerged in the void.
One black, one white, harmonizing with the Dao.
Demon Emperor Weapon, Yin Yang Annihilation.
The robust and fierce black tiger, as if anticipating this, appeared right in Shi Lianchang's escape path, opening its blood-filled maw, waiting for the phantom to enter.
The black tiger chewed vigorously a few times, then swallowed Shi Lianchang, along with his terrified and pitiful screams, into its stomach!
After completing this, the two tigers transformed into the Yin Yang Mystic Talisman, slowly falling into Shen Yi's palm.
"..."
Fu Hai Su stood in the Dao Palace, his fingers trembling as he manipulated the incantation.
All of Shi Lianchang's thoughts seemed to be under this young man's control. His understanding of the Boundless Dao Monarch Sect had reached a terrifying and heart-palpitating level.
As his mind became chaotic,
Shen Yi gripped the talisman, glancing at Fu Hai Su in the Dao Palace with a sidelong look. Amidst his messy hair, a smile suddenly curved his lips.
A clean and pure smile.
It caused Fu Hai Su to stumble, backing away, his breath quickening as he leaned against the giant stone stele phantom that had just appeared.
The stele was blank, with only countless Dao Palace diagrams, from bottom to top, numbering in the tens of thousands!
