Chapter 1592 Three Grand Sects
"Are you trying to pick a fight with the Three Grand Sects? Do you have any idea what kind of trouble you"re getting yourself into?" Elder Hao growled in anger, realizing he had backed away from a junior.
Yuan casually shrugged, "No, not really, since I am not from around here."
Elder Hao frowned at such words and asked, "Are you… from the upper heavens?"
By now, most of the sects in the lower heavens are aware of people from the upper heavens descending.
Since it was almost impossible for someone of Yuan"s caliber to be unrecognizable, there was a good chance he came from the upper heavens. "The opposite, actually. I came from the Lower Heaven."
Elder Hao"s face immediately darkened.
"Since you managed to climb all the way to the Fourth Heaven, your abilities and talent are unquestionably up there. However, you"re simply too arrogant if you think you can offend the Three Grand Sects."
"Since you"re new here, let me educate you. The Three Grand Sects are the strongest and most influential sects in the Fourth Heaven! We have been in this position for millions of years! We are unshakable!" "Thank you for the information, but that doesn"t change anything, unfortunately." Yuan shrugged.
Elder Hao trembled with anger, enraged that a junior would look down on the Three Grand Sects to such an extent. The Three Grand Sects were highly respected and revered by everyone, and he had never encountered anyone who refused to show them any respect.
Yet, Elder Hao didn"t dare to attack Yuan.
"I won"t be able to defeat him alone. I need backup."
Thus, without saying another word, Elder Hao turned and disappeared into the distance. Seeing this, Yuan resumed his training. The others were left speechless by the results, but if Elder Hao couldn"t deal with him, they had no chance. Reluctantly, they returned to their own training.
Over the next several days, Yuan killed thousands of magical beasts. However, that was far from enough to complete his task. At this rate, he"d need to spend over a hundred years at the Endless Beast Den just to complete it.
"I underestimated this task due to its simplicity… One hundred million… this might actually take the longest to complete…" Yuan sighed inwardly.
He suddenly turned to look at the cave where all of the magical beasts were emerging from.
Ever since he showed up at the Endless Beast Den, he"d been getting a weird feeling coming from the cave, almost as if it was beckoning him.
However, he"d already examined the place with Divine Sense and Divine Gaze, yet he only found an empty cave. As for the magical beasts, they simply pop into existence like magic.
Suddenly, several powerful presences appeared, filling the entire Endless Beast Den and interrupting Yuan"s thoughts.
Yuan turned around to see four individuals staring at him from the sky. One of them was Elder Hao.
"You left to bring your friends?" Yuan smiled at them.
The group descended to the ground in the next moment, silently glaring at Yuan with profound frowns etched on their faces. These individuals were all in the early Spirit Enlightenment realm.
"You must be the one looking down on our Three Grand Sects. Identify yourself." The middle-aged man standing at the very front said in a demanding tone.
Yuan tilted his head and said, "I don"t recall looking down on anyone, though. I do think it"s weird you guys are monetizing this place."
"With an endless number of magical beasts flowing from this cave, if people stopped training here, you"d need to hire people to constantly clean up this place, or it will quickly fill the Fourth Heaven with wild beasts, so everyone training here is actually doing this world a service."
"Regardless, I believe it should cost nothing to hunt wild magical beasts."
"I don"t care what you believe. You will regret offending the Three Grand Sects." The middle-aged man sneered.
Yuan raised an eyebrow and asked, "And how are you going to do that? By ganging up on me? I don"t think it will look good on the Three Grand Sects if people hear that you"d ganged up on a junior."
"Who said we"re going to gang up on you? I alone am enough to deal with a brat like you," the middle-aged man said as he released his cultivation.
"Which sect are you from?" Yuan asked.
"Grand Elder Du of the Grand Mystic Sect," the middle-aged man introduced himself.
"I"m just a n.o.body from the Lower Heaven. I"ll let you make the first move." Yuan spoke with a confident smile on his face.
"Arrogant little b.a.s.t.a.r.d…" Grand Elder Du"s face immediately flushed red in anger, and his aura surged exponentially.
"Profound Mystic Strike!" Grand Elder Du extended his palms, shooting a powerful blast of spiritual energy at Yuan.
Seeing this, Yuan placed his arms behind his back and confronted the blast with his naked body.
Bang!
The ground trembled violently from the impact, reducing the area around Yuan to rubble. Yet, amidst the destruction, Yuan stood unscathed.
"What?!" Grand Elder Du and the others were greatly shocked by the results.
Although Grand Elder Du had no intention to kill Yuan, he definitely wanted to teach Yuan a lesson that he"d never forget.
The attack was strong enough to break most bones in a Spirit Sovereign, yet Yuan came out unscathed while being a Spirit Emperor.
Elder Hao had warned them that Yuan was far more powerful than he appeared, but none of them could have antic.i.p.ated the extent of his strength.
"I didn"t feel that, so I"ll give you another chance." Yuan suddenly said.
Yuan"s provocation immediately infuriated Grand Elder Du, causing him to abandon any thought of going easy.
"You"ll regret this, brat!"
"Grand Mystic Typhoon!"
Grand Elder Du created a ma.s.sive typhoon of spiritual energy around Yuan.
"This is your last chance to apologize because this will really kill you!" Grand Elder Du warned.
Despite Yuan"s arrogant behavior, he admired Yuan"s talents and didn"t want to destroy them in such a fas.h.i.+on.
