Imperial God Emperor

516 - Greater One Zhenren

 

"We pay our respects to Elder Han, we pay our respects to Shishus."

Lin Yi and the others had managed to survive from their predicament, and so was delighted. They all paid their respects towards their elders.  

"There's only you guys left? What about the others..." The white-haired old man had a look of regret appearing on his face. He could already guess that it was likely that the others had met with something misfortunate. 

"Elder Han, please take vengeance for our brothers that has died tragically."

"That's right, all those senior brothers really died a horrible death."

There were several Greater One Sect disciples that began sobbing and crying.

For them, these days was akin to passing through hell. They had witnessed their fellow disciples die one after the other, deathly afraid that the next one will be themselves. When they were finally safe, the shock from this huge turnabout caused them to nearly completely collapse. 

"Why are you crying?" Of the three youths standing next to the elder, the one at the far right which had sharp sword-like eyebrows, star-like eyes and bronze skin, suddenly frowned. He opened his mouth and rebuked them: "Us Greater One Sect disciples are people with iron bones. Even if a blade is on our body, we will not show the slightest hint of fear. Look at you, crying and sobbing like women, you really are embarrassing.”

These several crying disciples, instantly had fear and embarrassment on their faces. They quickly quietened down.

"These two friends are?" Elder Han's gaze fell on Ye Qingyu and the other.

There were some Greater One Sect disciples that had dark faces. They were about to say something, but Lin Yi rushed to open his mouth first, "Reporting back to master, to the three Shishus, this brother Ye and Miss Yu are friends that we met when we mistakenly escaped through a crevice of space and entered into a domain called Heaven Wasteland Domain when we were running from the Demon Spider Race. Thanks to their help, we were able to escape with our lives.”

So the white-haired old man with a vigorous complexion was Lin Yi's master.

“Oh? You manage to enter into other domains?" The old man, Elder Han, was slightly taken aback, then his gaze fell on Ye Qingyu and Yu Xiaoxing. With a smile, “Thank you for extending an aiding hand to our Greater One Sect disciples."

Ye Qingyu saw that the old man was benevolent, and his tone was also very kind. He did not show disrespect: "Elder Han is being courteous. We were just helping each other." 

"Hmph. Shameless talk. A trash whose yuan qi cultivation that is not even at five Spirit springs, a person who is in tattered clothing like a wild brute, to dare say that he has given aid to disciples of the Greater One Sect? This really is a joke," out of the three young men beside the old men, the one at the far left with an eagle hooked nose coldly smiled as he said in contempt. 

“Junior Disciple Zuo, don't be discourteous," Elder Han rebuked.

This eagled hooked nosed young man with blade-like eyebrows was called Zuo Li. Surprisingly, he was from the same generation as that old man. Hearing this, he coldly sneered and did not say anything, but evidently was still not satisfied.

Of the three youths, the person at the center was the one that was comparatively more handsome. He had sharply defined eyes and eyebrows, his face like a painting. He had a smile that was not a smile, as he seemed not to pay attention to this at all.

His gaze fell on Yu Xiaoxing, as if he had noticed something. "You have a royal qi about you, and your aura is noble. Could you perhaps be part of Royalty within Heaven Wasteland Domain?"

The gaze of this young man was extremely sensitive.

Lin Yi quickly reported back: "Reporting back to Xiao Shishu, this Miss Yu is the only daughter of the Snow Emperor, of the Human Race in Heaven Wasteland Domain, and this brother Ye..." 

"En, I know." Without waiting for Lin Yi to finish his introductions, Xiao Yunlong directly cut him off. Evidently he had no shred of interest towards a wild brute like Ye Qingyu. 

Lin Yi at this time gave an embarrassed glance towards Ye Qingyu.

Ye Qingyu did not pay the slightest of attention to this.

"Senior brother Han, Miss Yu has royal qi about her, and her foundation is excellent as well. She is a talent that is worth nourishing. Why don't we do her a favour and take her into the Greater One Sect. How about that?" Xiao Yunlong did not even care about whether Yu Xiaoxing was willing or not, and directly turned his head to speak to Elder Han.“

That white-haired old man stroked his beard with a smile, then said, "What junior brother Xiao says makes sense.”

This Xiao Yunlong was one of the most prodigious characters amongst the disciples of the fourth generation of the Greater One Sect. He was extremely young, and had significant talent, and hence was regarded importantly by the sects. Although Han Qi was the senior brother, but even he could not disregard his words. 

Yu Xiaoxing let out a cold snort by the side. She was about to say something, when she was grabbed by Ye Qingyu, indicating for her not to speak temporarily.

At this time---

In the air, there was a demonic attribute light that began flickering with light.

“Tut tut tut. When we mention reinforcements, reinforcements really have arrived. This really is too great, too great. Haha, there's more people that have come here to die. I haven't tasted the fresh meat taste of the Human Race for a long time.”

It was a familiar and unbridled voice.

It was the familiar round faced chubby person again.

That instant there was a ripple in space, this round faced Demon Spider Prince had rushed here to kill.

On the other side of the space fluctuation, the crippled Black Five also appeared. There was black demonic qi encircling around his whole body, as if he was a demon king. Shreds of black demonic qi emanated from him, forming a black net that covered half the sky.

"The Black Five from the Demon Spider Enforcement Squad."

"The second Prince Black Gold?"

Xiao Yunlong and Zuo Li all let out gasps of shock.

The complexion of Elder Han also transformed.

Previously, the Patriarchs as well as the Elder's Residence had personally given an order, that all the Greater One Sect experts that were near the training area had to expend all their efforts to save Lin Yi and the others. These disciples were said to be chased by experts of the Demon Spider Race. But it was not clear whether it was someone at the level of the Demon Spider Enforcement Squad as well as a bloodline prince.  

Although Han Qi was one of the elders of the Greater One Sect, but he was not one of the core elders of the main peak. He had not managed to cultivate in the top level cultivation techniques of the Greater One Sect, so his strength could not be counted as being within the top level of the Greater One Sect. 

These days, he had some fame in Clear River Domain, but to want to fight against someone from the Demon Spider Enforcement Squad as well as a Blood Prince, this was not possible.

Xiao Yunlong and Zuo Li's expression became difficult to look upon.

They both had the same thought occurring to them; if they long knew it was these two people coming chasing after them, would they have wasted time in here in useless conversation? They would have definitely ran away at the first instant.

The young man with bronze-coloured skin did not seem that anxious, however. There was a questioning light exposed in his eyes; just what had these disciples done?

To think they would have attracted the attention of such a level of experts form the Demon Spider Race?

Could it be that the higher ups of the sects had concealed some information?

In the heart of the youth, there were countless thoughts flashing through it at this instant.

Opposite.

"Hehehehe, quickly look. That white bearded old man is about to be scared witless." That round faced Demon Spider Prince appreciated the expressions of the others with excitement. "In truth, I love to see all sorts of varied expressions on my opponent's. Haha, this really is a sense of achievement."

Black Five licked his lips: “Young master, don't be courteous. First kill them."

The round faced Demon Spider Prince thought about it, "En, that white bearded old man, his flesh must be very tough. It must not taste nice at all. You kill him, leave the three young fresh ones for me..."

Before he finished.

Xiu!

There was black mist surrounding Black Five's body. Like it was demonic rope, there were piercing sounds through the air that shot out to kill the white haired old man, Han Qi. 

Han Qi's complexion changed, as he shouted, "Greater One Bell!"

Yong!

A giant golden bell appeared, its body flickering with a mysterious golden formation that was like a dragon soaring around it. In an instant, it expanded, transforming into a clear transparent giant ball hundreds of meters tall, protecting everyone within.

The demonic qi was like a pillar that unendingly struck towards the walls of that giant bell.

Seeing this, Ye Qingyu instantly realized that the reinforcements from the Greater One Sect would not be the opponents of these two demon kings from the Demon Spider Race.

In the blink of an eye.

Kacha Kacha.

That golden bell was instantly filled with cracks and fractures, and looked about to shatter at any moment.

Everyone inside was shivering.

Han Qi's face madly changed. He bit his tongue, spitting out several mouthfuls of blood essence, but there was nothing he could do.

Boom!

The golden bell finally shattered.

A demonic qi, like a terrifying blade that extended from hell, headed towards the heart of Han Qi.

Han Qi let out a roar of rage, his white hair and beard suddenly standing up. There was a golden sharp sword that appeared in his hands, and a power that far exceeded the power of the Bitter Sea stage exploded out, wanting to block the black demonic qi.

Boom!

It was only a strike.

The golden long sword in Han Qi's hands instantly turned into golden pieces. He spat out a jet of blood, his complexion instantly growing deathly pale... 

"Master!"

Lin Yi was in a panic.

Zuo Li and Xiao Yunlong also utilized all of their efforts, each summoning a Dao tool to protect their own body. But under the explosive strike of the black demonic qi, even a Dao tool was shattered into pieces.

Black Five evidently was intentionally playing around with these people, not killing them instantly.

But even if so, there were several misfortunate Greater One Sect disciples that were swept up in the black demonic qi and instantly turned into ashes and bones.

"Not good, just what did you do, to have  incited people like them."

"Escape."

Zuo Li and Xiao Yunlong were like defeated dogs, shouting out in panic and anger.

Seeing this, Ye Qingyu instantly had contempt in his heart.

Previously, they were pretending to be someone amazing, as if they were really someone important. But now they were terrified, could it be that the Greater One Sect was filled with weird people?

He instantly wanted to activate the [Flash Formation] to leave here instantly.

But at this time---

Chilah.

There was the sound like that of a piece of paper being ripped apart. 

In an instant, it was as if space was being torn apart by a mysterious power. There was a huge crevice in space, about hundreds of meters wide that appeared. From the crevice, a deity-like giant hand stretch out. With a light pull, it enwrapped Han Qi and the others including Ye Qingyu and Yu Xiaoxing into the ripple and brought them within.

The black demonic qi that Black Five controlled could not even come near the huge deity-like hand, before it was instantly forced to disperse.

The round faced Demon Spider Prince did not act.

"Eh?" He was somewhat surprised. "What is happening? That Greater One hypocritical old bastard acted personally? Are we not just killing a minor elder and some minnow-like disciples, can he not even withstand such a loss?"

The brutal and vicious Black Five also had astoundment on his face.

The Patriarch of the Greater One Sect, Greater One Zhenren was one of the strongest figures within Clear River Domain. He was mysterious and powerful, and had not acted personally for the past hundreds of years. He was like a divine dragon that appeared and disappeared without any trace. In the past, even if experts at the Heaven Ascension stage would perish, he would not act, why was it that this time...

He also felt somewhat fearful at the same time.

If that huge deity-like hand wanted to kill him, it was absolutely only a matter of seconds.

"This matter has suddenly become somewhat interesting. It seems we have missed something. Could it be that there is some secret on the bodies of those disciples?"

The round faced Demon Spider Prince pressed his lips together. Rather than being angry, there was a smile on his face.
