The horrifying Sacred Emperor Realm power clashed, shaking the whole world. The aftermath of the clash seemed so vast that it formed another galaxy, completely engulfing Heaven itself.
It was an extremely terrifying scene. These two Sacred Emperor Grade artifacts had also seemed to be able to be used again. Yet, the divine power they exhibited was so powerful that all those below shuddered, unable to help themselves from kneeling down on the ground. After all, their strike was enough to sink the entire sky, and even a trace of it leaking out would be enough to kill everyone below.
Therefore, it was only reasonable that those who were fast enough, hurriedly retreated with completely pale faces.
The Successor of Demonic Arts has a Sacred King Grade artifact in his hand. It is also the kind that can be used repeatedly. No wonder he is so fearless. Even if someone discovers his tracks, he can just kill them and then escape
Well, not even the Elders of the Immortal Academy could see through his disguise!
Regardless, the Successor of Demonic Arts will definitely be punished this time. He can no longer escape!
Pure hatred and anger were burning in the eyes of the many young prodigies. Even though they couldnt charge in head on and hunt him down like Prince Shen and Chosen Monk Jin Chan, they were sticking close to the Eternal Overcast Mist, surrounding it to make sure no one could escape. Thus, if the Successor of Demonic Arts were to try and escape, he would be forced to go deeper into the Land of Eternal Overcast.
*Rumble* All kinds of runes in the sky began to tremble, turning into a tremendous force.
After Gu Changges silhouette swiftly disappeared, the two Sacred King Grade artifacts floated mid-air, across each other. The Great Seal of Mountains and Rivers almost regained its original consciousness.
The divine consciousness that dwelled in it was no longer the original. Not after Gu Changges had infused his Demonic Arts in it, making it only obeyed him.
After all, the current Great Seal of Mountains and Rivers was taken by Gu Changge from the Mortal Ones reincarnation, Jiang Yang, when Gu Changge was in the Lower Realm.
It was supposed to be the omnipotent Celestial Seal which contained the mountains and rivers, billions of stars, and all kinds of earthly miracles. However, out of worry that it wouldnt go unnoticed by a chance encounter with the Celestia Sacred Emperor, he had changed the Celestial Seals appearance by covering up its initial Source, shaping it into what was now called the Great Seal of Mountains and Rivers.
The Celestia Sacred Emperor wasnt dead yet, and he could even be the last powerful remnant left behind by the Mortal One that could be considered to be his trump card. However, since the Mortal One has been completely eliminated by him, and the so-called Celestia Sacred Emperor had not made his appearance, Gu Changge did not pay him much heed.
How exactly did he get the Great Seal of Mountains and Rivers? This was a question which the Immortal Gu Family didnt have an answer to either. They only thought that Gu Changge had been blessed, and had obtained a Sacred Emperor Grade artifact from somewhere.
People outside their family, however, thought it was given to Gu Changge by the Immortal Gu Family. Over time, many just found out that he had come to possess a Sacred Emperor Grade artifact and he could even use it to show Sacred Emperor Realm might.
He had even fearlessly fought with Chu Hao, who was at the peak of the Sacred King Realm when they were at the Vermilion Bird Empire. Therefore, no one found it odd when Chosen Monk Jin Chan and Prince Shen asked Gu Changge to stay and fend off the Golden Ancient Bell. Everyone already knew the reason. After all, Gu Changge was the only one capable of this. Had it been Prince Shen and Chosen Monk Jin Chan who had matched against the Sacred Emperor Grade artifact, they might not have won even if they had tried everything they could.
Has Brother Changge gone in? Two beautiful and dashing figures, Ying Yu and Yin Mei, flew in the form of divine rainbows through the sky before they appeared behind the group of young prodigies. The one who asked was Ying Mei, whose face had concern written all over it. She was worried about Gu Changges safety as she looked at the monstrous grey fog in front of her.
The sight of her worrying made the young prodigies around her envious. After all, no Gifted Lady had ever cared about their safety like this.
Gifted Lady, Young Master Changge has just charged in, one of the young prodigies answered with a nod.
Another prodigy couldnt help his curiosity as he asked, What has gotten you all flustered?
Yin Meis face turned pale when she heard the words. Her delicate body trembled slightly as she spoke, completely worried, This is bad. Young Master Changge might have fallen for their scheme. There is a big possibility that the ones the Successor of Demonic Arts is after isnt me, but them
What!? Ying Yu, who was beside her, was greatly taken aback. Disbelief was clearly in her eyes as they widened. [Why did she not tell me earlier!? Was it because she just thought of this possibility?]
What do you mean, Yin Mei? What scheme are you talking about? she couldnt help but ask in a low voice.
The young prodigies faces immediately fell as well after she said those words. Eyes filled with dread and uncertainty, they quietly thought to themselves, afraid to say their concerns out loud. [Gu Changge, Prince Shen and Chosen Monk Jin Chan have been plotted against? But Gu Changge is the kind who has thought of everything. Did he really fall into the enemys trap? Even if he has, Prince Shen and Chosen Monk Jin Chan are fairly skilled themselves as well!]
Hearing that, Yin Mei sucked in a deep breath, in an attempt to calm herself down before she finally spoke again. I tried to recall when the Successor of Demonic Arts attacked me. He actually made me react on purpose rather than kill me, ensuring that I could escape. It was not because luck was on my side. Furthermore, there were many people who came to the teahouse when it happened. Wasnt he supposed to be afraid he would be noticed when he behaved so openly?
Many would have taken notice of him as soon as they detected his aura. Yin Meis remarks silenced many. After thinking about the situation at that time, carefully, something did certainly seem odd. The Successor of Demonic Arts had always been cautious, which was why it didnt make much sense for him to make a move right when he would most likely expose himself.
You mean to say, he did it all on purpose? Ying Yu only felt a chill that made her shiver creep up her spine.
He then took the opportunity to catch the attention of everyone, and he even spewed ridiculous words at the time telling Brother Changge to come out His objective is clear. He aims to get Brother Changge and the others to notice him. He must have heard that Brother Changge and the others were rushing over. It also just so happens that there are no Elders keeping an eye out over here at the moment
Now even Brother Changges Sacred Emperor Grade artifact has been kept outside of Land of Eternal Overcast! Yin Mei exclaimed as she nodded. As she spoke, her face turned even paler, and her delicate body shook before tears came out of her eyes.
Brother Changge must stay safe! He only went in because of me Hearing the sincerity and worry in her voice, Ying Yu and the others gradually fell silent as their expressions changed drastically.
In that case, it sounds like everything has been planned out by the Successor of Demonic Arts from the start, one of the young prodigies croaked. His mouth felt dry, and he couldnt help feel goosebumps all over his body. His goal is to gather everyone here. After all he has an entire organisation backing him up.
Many began to come back to their senses. They wondered why Ying Shuang had fled all the way without fighting back. [It was not because he was weak. He was just acting as bait to get Prince Shen and everyone else here!]
The Successor of Demonic Arts is a mad man. I cant believe he came up with a plan to lure everyone here.
Could he be planning to exterminate all the young prodigies?
This must be a counterattack he has planned!
The thought of it made some people in the crowd shiver involuntarily, as the blood was drained from their faces.
I am afraid Brother Changge and the others will meet their doom this time. The Successor of Demonic Arts must be confident in having the upper hand to make such a plan.
This wont do! We have to let the Immortal Academy know about what is happening here! It is pointless for us to go in if the Elders arent with us!
Many of the young prodigies fell silent, but still, none dared to make a move to move into the grey fog.
Yin Mei was the first one who wanted to go after Gu Changge. I am going in to look for Brother Changge. He has hurt his Source the last time he fought against the Successor of Demonic Arts just to save me
However, before she could even take a step, Ying Yu held onto her with a frown on her face. You cant go!
Her voice was cold and demanding. With your abilities, you will only make things harder for him.
What am I supposed to do then!? I am going! If something were to happen to him Eyes red, Yin Mei was on the verge of crying. Even the nine fox tails behind her had lost their white lustre.
Many became quiet when they saw this.
In fact, there were many of them that were lamenting. They had a feeling that Gu Changge had already won Yin Meis heart when he rescued her from the Successor of Demonic Arts, back when they were at the Celestial Ancient Continent. This made them envious and regretful, but still none of them made a move.
One of the young prodigies was quiet for a brief moment before he sighed, We can only wait for the Elders from the Immortal Academy to come Senior Brother Changge and the others arent easy opponents. I am sure they will be fine.
On the other side where the grey fog surged into the sky, many Eternal Overcast creatures were throwing themselves at Gu Changge.
However, the moment they wanted to get close to him, he would casually wave his hand, causing the void to collapse and a terrifying big palm print to appear. Everything within ten kilometres would be annihilated from this one wave of his hand. It could even be said that this space was his domain, but it was just his application of Void Principles.
A large number of Eternal Overcast creatures couldnt even get into the area around him as they would explode like popping balloons, destroying both their body and soul.
[Ying Shuang should have made his escape to the east by now. Prince Shen is the one who is after him. Since Chosen Monk Jin Chan is in another direction, I will let him off for now.] Gu Changge had a slight smile on his face as he took his time moving through the void.
One after another, there were marks which looked like the Great Dao interweaving under his feet before he quickly disappeared into the distance that seemed so close, yet so far away.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, and he could clearly see the many flows of World Principles, and auras. Of course, he could also see Prince Shen and Chosen Monk Jin Chans tracks.
Stop right there, Ying Shuang! Where do you think you can run off to? At the same time, a battle had commenced in the depths of the grey fog.
Many mountain peaks that had long been infertile, burst apart under the terrifying fluctuations. There were many runes that were intertwined and spread out across in all directions. It was a magnificent sight to behold.
Prince Shen angrily roared as he drove his Four-Spirit Battle Chariot and hurried over. His towering build and dazzling hair, as though he was on fire, was eye-catching.
He was launching one attack after another at Ying Shuang in front of him, all of which were unrestrained and powerful. With a punch, the runes all over his body ignited like beautiful fireworks. It even caused the sky to loudly rumble, as if a big sun was being rolled along.
This kind of power could not be shown by those in the Early Stage of the Sacred Realm. It could only be shown by those in the Peak!
At this moment, he was like a young god surrounded by many manifestations. The imposing and domineering Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise all roared as they seemed to come to life.
I told you! I am not the Successor of the Demonic Arts! I have been framed! Infuriated from being wrongfully chased after, Ying Shuang angrily yelled, expression dark. He swiftly took out a green dagger and drove it at Prince Shen, in an attempt to resist the latters punch.
Even so, he was not the real Ying Shuang.
Prince Shens attack instantly shattered the dagger, prompting Ying Shuang to cough out blood and take a few steps back. He looked extremely pathetic with his dishevelled hair. In fact, without the protection of the Golden Ancient Bell, he was, at most, just little stronger than the average young prodigies in the Sacred Emperor Realm. He was no match for ancient monstrocity like Prince Shen.
Is that all you got? Prince Shen scoffed, his eyes cold. As he stood firmly on his chariot, like an unparalleled king whose brilliance overflowed.
I have told you again and again! I am not the Successor of the Demonic Arts! I have been framed! Gu Changge is the one you are looking for! Ying Shuang spat as he coughed up more blood. He had a sour expression on his face after failing to defend himself against Prince Shens punch. He had just realised the difference between their might, despite both of them being in the Sacred Realm.
Though, if he had been the real Prince Ying, he wouldnt be beaten up so one-sidedly even if he couldnt win against Prince Shen.
Ha! You are still denying the fact and hiding your real skills! I dont know what you are planning, but I will end you today. As long as I kill you, I can prove that I am better than Gu Changge! All his glory and fame will come to me! Prince Shen had no regard for Ying Shuangs current state. After he threw his words out, he unhesitantly charged forward to kill Ying Shuang.
