The sects resided in a different world from the Imperial Court, neither side interfering with the other. If an official of the court provoked a sect martial artist, these unsociable and detached martial artists would just kill them, and the government offices would be incapable of arresting them.

But when a conflict started up, no sect could contend against the Imperial Court. Although the people of the sects had formidable martial power and were skilled in fighting, they were too loosely organized and not team players. Organizing ten-some people in sword formations like the Righteous Alliance was already the maximum extent of what was possible.

But in the army, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of soldiers would work in concert as a cohesive whole.

Moreover, the generals in the army all cultivated war halos that could further boost the strength of their soldiers, making the army an even more powerful force.

A single soldier wasn’t comparable to a sect martial artist, but tens of thousands of soldiers working together in formations was something that no sect could stand against.

Fear appeared in the eyes of the Black Yin Ancestor. This noble of the court was not as easy to deal with as he had imagined.

“Righteous is righteous and evil is evil. None of the nonsense you say has any meaning. Since you dared to cultivate that evil art and kill countless people, you will die here. There is no point in wasting your energy on such talk.”

Song Yuanyi slowly stepped forward, his expression callous and cold. As the Righteous Alliance Lord, the leader of the righteous path, he would not be threatened by a few words from Wang Chong.

“Guangting, don’t let him escape! I will personally execute him!” Song Yuanyi coldly said.

Buzz!

There was a flash of thick killing intent in his eyes, and then Song Yuanyi exploded forward.

Boom!

A vast flood of Stellar Energy poured out of his body. For the first time since he had come to the northwest, Song Yuanyi exerted all the energy within his body.

Wang Chong was instantly embroiled in an extremely perilous situation. Eternal Spring Stellar Energy was coming at him like a tsunami, a sight that made even him slightly grimace. He had wanted to use the threat of reinforcements to slow down these four, but Song Yuanyi was clearly not that easy to threaten.

He was a man who meant what he said and struck out with speed and impact. Wang Chong had barely had time to say anything when this titan of the righteous path chose to attack him.

“Kid, just blame yourself for taking that person as your master!”

A sinister voice spoke, and then the shrieking of ghosts filled the sky. Pei Luanchang, the Myriad Ghost Ancestor, had also taken action. With a shake of his sleeve, he stirred up a vast wave of black energy that soared into the sky, condensing into countless ghost soldiers, ghost generals, monsters, ghost kings... They howled into the air in their vast multitudes, then turned around and hurtled toward Wang Chong.

The ground buzzed and groaned as the Myriad Ghost Ancestor’s ‘Myriad Ghosts Pilgrimage Great Yin Art’ pulled out vast quantities of foul energy, corpse energy, and Yin energy from deep beneath the earth.

“Universe Sundering Art!”

“The World to Darkness, All Things to Evil!”

Righteous Alliance Vice Lord Xie Guangting and the Five Ancestor Alliance’s Black Yin Ancestor both surged forward, their bodies surrounded with Stellar Energy as they moved to prevent Wang Chong from escaping.

Buzz!

These four powerful auras lapped over each other, creating a vast barrier, an immense pressure that locked down Wang Chong and made it difficult to breathe. Everyone who saw this sight couldn’t help but pale.

That kid’s done for!

The same thought emerged in all the martial artists who were looking at Wang Chong. No one in the world of sects could fend off the attacks of these four at the same time. Even the Black Yin Ancestor would be doomed, much less others.

There’s nothing to be done!

As the winds howled and energy exploded, a single thought ran through Wang Chong’s mind. He could still not properly use the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art, and the previous attack from the Black Yin Ancestor and Song Yuanyi had already caused Wang Chong to suffer internal injuries. Moreover, the Village Chief had cautioned him to use the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art as little as possible.

But in these circumstances, Wang Chong had no other choice.

Bang!

His dantian rumbled as Stellar Energy erupted from it and into his meridians. The images of the sun and moon once more appeared as Wang Chong’s body radiated a vast and imposing aura.

Wang Chong finally used the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art, sending torrents of Stellar Energy, sharp and tough, sweeping through the skies.

This was a clash between martial arts ranked in the ten great arts of the Central Plains. Seeing any one of them was an incredibly rare sight, and now, in front of the place where the number one ‘Supreme and Infinite Origin Immortal Art’ was being held, three of these supreme arts had gathered together.

Boom!

The world fell silent on the verge of this unprecedented battle. But a moment later, cries of alarm and terror came from the crowd.

“Ah!”

“Look over there!”

“The Origin Immortal Mountain, the Origin Immortal Mountain... It’s Demonic Emperor Zhang Wenfu!!”

Song Yuanyi had ignored those cries of alarm at first, focusing his entire mind on killing Wang Chong. But at those final cries from the crowd, Song Yuanyi, Xie Guangting, the Myriad Ghost Ancestor, and the Black Yin Ancestor all fiercely looked up in alarm.

At this moment, the four of them saw what the crowd was shouting about. As they looked up, they saw that strange protruding section of the Origin Immortal Mountain covered in that dazzling glow.

But now, the lights and shadows were shifting, that ‘illusion’ in the air seeming to slowly roll up like a curtain. The mountain in the sky was becoming increasingly real, like an ethereal existence residing in another world slowly manifesting in reality.

Not only that, the world groaned as a hair-thin crack appeared in the sky and began to creep down toward the ground. And as this crack thickened, it appeared as if two giant, invisible hands were pulling on its sides to open the way.

The Origin Immortal Mountain is about to open!

A thought flashed through the minds of Song Yuanyi and the others. But this was not Song Yuanyi’s greatest concern. Rather, it was that image of a cold and imposing elder, more than two hundred feet tall, that had appeared in the sky.

This elder wore a black robe, his eyes brimming with disdain and seeming to exude a light as bright as the sun or moon.

“Demonic Emperor!!”

Even someone with as esteemed a status as Song Yuanyi, who was a peak Great General existence who cultivated the formidable Immortal Universe Eternal Spring Mantra, could not help but slightly pale.

“Ah!”

As for the Myriad Ghost Ancestor and Black Yin Ancestor, when they saw that sharp-eyed figure on the mountain, they called out in surprise, their faces twisting in shock. In a flash, these two titans of the evil path became extremely afraid, even terrified.

A man’s name was like the shade of a tree!

Even after several years, everyone could still recognize this man at a glance. During the reign of the Demonic Emperor over the world of sects, there was no major leader of the righteous or evil path who had not interacted with him.

However, none of them had ever been able to gain much advantage in front of the Demonic Emperor Old Man. Those of the evil path in particular feared the Demonic Emperor so much that the mere mention of his name would cause them to pale. At the height of his prime, there were some in the world of sects who did not even dare to utter the words ‘Demonic Emperor’ or ‘Zhang Wenfu’. Rather, they called him ‘that man’ in order to soothe the unease in their hearts.

Bang!

As the four titans stared in shock at that illusion of Demonic Emperor Zhang Wenfu in the air, all the other martial artists in the region fled in panic like floodwaters breaking through a dam. After so many years, the fear of the Demonic Emperor had bored deeply into their bones.

“Run! The Demonic Emperor has appeared! He’s going to kill us all!”

Terror swept through the crowd.

“Song Yuanyi, Luo Qiyin, you’re quite audacious!

“Let me see if any of you dare to harm my disciple!”

The gigantic image of Zhang Wenfu spoke in a thunderous voice as he turned his cold eyes to Song Yuanyi, Luo Qiyin, Pei Luanchang, and Xie Guangting. As his voice echoed through the air, all the spiritual energy in the area converged into an enormous azure hand that hurtled like a meteor toward Song Yuanyi and the others.

“Old devil!”

Song Yuanyi grimaced, but Wang Chong was elated.

“Master!”

Wang Chong’s lips curled into a smile. And if one looked carefully, he had the composed expression of someone who had already predicted this development.

Bang!

Without the slightest hesitation, Wang Chong sent out his Stellar Energy to clash with the Stellar Energy of Song Yuanyi and Luo Qiyin, joining his master in a combined assault. Crack! Kaboom! It seemed as if the earth had been sundered apart. Winds howled and dust plumed several hundred feet into the air. Zhang Wenfu’s attack had been so sudden that all four of these sect leaders were caught off guard.

“Don’t let the kid escape!” a chilling voice yelled, and then Righteous Alliance Vice Lord Xie Guangting shot out of the dust and lunged at Wang Chong.

“Universe Sundering Art!”

Xie Guangting used his supreme art without hesitation. Kacrack! An invisible energy radiated from his body, causing the space in front of him to become tangible. Xie Guangting struck at the center of this solidified space with his palm, causing a web of cracks to spread out from it.
