Chapter 1686 He Was Unparalleled
Five seconds, ten seconds… one minute pa.s.sed.
“He hasn’t appeared yet. Could he be…?”
Many people got nervous and were shocked.
They found that something was wrong.
“Even if he’s displaying the supernatural power of invisibility, there’s no aura at all. He hasn’t shown up for such a long time. That’s a big problem. Is he dead?”
Only then did the crowd recall the scene when Han Yang Immortal made his move just now.
They could sense a trace of extraordinary aura from his several powerful supernatural powers, but they didn’t think it was possible for the Sect Leader of the Holy Thunder Sect to be killed.
However, they couldn’t figure out what the Sect Leader of the Holy Thunder Sect meant by doing this.
“Hundreds of people are watching, and he is hiding?”
“Stop your search. He’s already dead.”
A calm voice swept over.
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
Many people turned their heads to look.
An enormous pitch-black body appeared.
It spread its wings that extended a kilometer.
Its fur was jet-black and s.h.i.+ny, and its claws were incomparably sharp.
“It’s the Heavenly Illusionary Divine Eagle!”
“That’s… that’s Immortal Master Diming!”
“What is he doing here?”
“He’s one of the Grand Masters of the Eighth Mountain with extraordinary combat strength. Why is Immortal Master Diming here for such a small occasion?”
Many people came to their senses one after another.
They cupped their hands and greeted him.
“Greetings, Immortal Master Diming.”
“Greetings, Immortal Master Diming.”
The Grand Masters of the Eighth Mountain were also here. They greeted Immortal Master Diming and smiled.
“I never expected that this matter would be able to make you come over, Immortal Master Diming. It’s truly surprising.”
Among them, there was a fat middle-aged man. He was the Grand Master of the Holy Land on the Eighth Mountain.
He glanced at Zhang Han and said in a mocking tone, “It seems that the luck of the Highest Clouds Palace is a little bad. Han Yang Immortal just killed the Sect Master of the Holy Thunder Sect, but you don’t know that Immortal Master Diming and the Holy Thunder Sect are acquaintances. He once took care of the Holy Thunder Sect before it rose to prominence. How dare you fight in front of him? Are you courting death?”
Many people’s expressions changed.
Only then did they realize one thing.
“The Sect Leader of the Holy Thunder Sect is dead.”
“He was killed in one move. Han Yang Immortal is quite powerful.”
“That’s why he dared to ask us to come over. He’s confident. Unfortunately, Immortal Master Diming is here, so how could he allow Han Yang Immortal to act rashly?”
Under everyone’s gaze, the huge Divine Eagle levitated with two people on it.
They were Immortal Master Diming and his maidservant.
After they arrived here, Immortal Master Diming paid no attention to anyone.
When Zhang Han saw him, his eyes became somewhat playful.
“Immortal Master Diming?”
He put his hands behind his back and watched quietly from a distance.
For a moment, no one spoke.
If the other party were a woman, Zi Yan and the others would be wondering if something was wrong.
When Immortal Master Diming heard the discussion of the people below, he couldn’t remain calm anymore.
He opened his eyes wide, and an invisible fluctuation, like a huge wave, rushed toward the people who were talking.
Poof!
Those people were forced to retreat hundreds of meters by the overwhelming energy. They spat out blood and looked confused.
“I didn’t do anything, so why would Immortal Master Diming make a move?”
“Humph.”
Immortal Master Diming didn’t explain anything.
He just looked ahead and said in a clear voice, “Han Yang Immortal, you really survived.”
Hiss!
As soon as he said that, hundreds of people present were shocked.
“Han Yang Immortal knows Immortal Master Diming?”
“No wonder he dared to take action. In the eyes of Immortal Master Diming, the Holy Thunder Sect is nothing.”
“With the presence of Immortal Master Diming, it seems that we really have to give some explanation.”
In addition to being shocked, these people all had different ideas.
Immortal Master Diming could suppress everyone here. Even if the top Grand Master of the Seventh Mountain came, he wouldn’t be able to fight against Immortal Master Diming.
However, things were different from what they had imagined.
“Are you surprised that I’m still alive, Immortal Master Diming?” Zhang Han asked.
“Indeed.” Immortal Master Diming cupped his hands and said with a smile, “I came here for no other reason than to congratulate you.”
Swoos.h.!.+
Seeing this, the people around were all in a state of horror.
“Am I seeing things? Immortal Master Diming actually cupped his hands and saluted?”
“My G.o.d, Immortal Master Diming came here just to congratulate Han Yang Immortal?”
“What’s the relations.h.i.+p between them? Why do I feel that Immortal Master Diming is lowering himself?”
“Who is Han Yang Immortal exactly?!”
“We’re doomed. We might have messed with someone we can’t afford to provoke.”
These people were really shocked.
A person with a higher status than Immortal Master Diming would be too formidable. Besides the top three mountain regions in the Nine Mountains Region, there weren’t many people with a higher status than Immortal Master Diming in every single mountain region.
“Thank you, Immortal Master Diming.” Zhang Han nodded slightly.
“I didn’t dare to believe it.” Immortal Master Diming smiled and said, “After all these years, you’ve returned to the Peak Stage once more. How are you doing now? Will you be able to undergo that tribulation?”
“You’ll see in a few years,” Zhang Han said.
“Looks like you’re confident.” Immortal Master Diming swept the surroundings with his gaze. “You bunch of useless n.o.bodies actually dare to shout at him. You truly just don’t know your place.”
“Immortal Master Diming, I’m innocent.” Someone immediately said, “What happened before was all made by the Third Elder of our sect. I came here just to get together with everyone, and I have no other intentions at all. I dare to swear to G.o.d.”
“I, I’m the same.”
Many people wanted to say something, but Immortal Master Diming waved his hand with a cold face and said, “It’s useless to tell me. Your lives are in his hands. Han Yang Immortal, I’m here just to say h.e.l.lo. If there’s a chance in the future, I’ll prepare some fine wine, and let’s get together.”
His pleading tone stunned many of the Grand Masters present.
“Sounds like a good idea,” Zhang Han replied casually.
He didn’t agree or refuse.
“Okay.”
Immortal Master Diming took a deep look at Zhang Han, rode the Divine Eagle across the void, and left in an instant.
He really just came to say h.e.l.lo.
He wanted to ask about the situation of the divine thunder over the sky, but it was obviously not the right time.
“I wonder if that guy will do me a favor. I may not get to invite him over.”
On the way back, Immortal Master Diming sighed with emotion.
After he left, all the people present behaved themselves. Without saying a word, they stood aside and kept quiet out of fear.
They suddenly found that while Grand Master Diming was there, they dared to say something. After he left, these people were afraid that Han Yang Immortal would kill them.
With the help of Immortal Master Diming, they had already regarded Zhang Han as a top Grand Master.
Although Zhang Han was powerful, he was not that strong. He knew that he could not defeat Immortal Master Diming just now.
Zhang Han’s tone and expression during the conversation were the same as before, which made Immortal Master Diming confused. He thought that Han Yang Immortal had returned to his peak.
At this time, Zhang Han didn’t care so much.
He said flatly, “One year ago, you sent people to the Highest Clouds Palace one after another. I asked you to come here in a year and give me a reasonable explanation.”
Hundreds of people looked at each other. After a few seconds of silence, someone finally spoke.
“h.e.l.lo, Han Yang Immortal. I’m Immortal Master Lipeng, the Sect Leader of the Light Shadow Sect. I sent people here because we got the news that the Third Elder of our sect led the team into the secret realm and disappeared without a trace. I was worried, so I sent people here. As for this time, I followed everyone here.”
“Okay. You may leave after you leave behind 100 billion crystal stones and your fleet,” Zhang Han said flatly.
“Okay.”
The 100 billion crystal stones and the fleet he brought meant nothing to this Sect Leader.
After staying behind those things, he relaxed and left, watching the show from the distance.
“I’m…”
“Same rules.” Zhang Han waved his hand.
Another person left.
Seeing this, everyone relaxed a little. “I just need to offer some crystal stones and s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps. It doesn’t matter.”
“Thank you, Han Yang Immortal, for giving us a chance to explain ourselves.”
Someone thanked Zhang Han after offering the crystal stones.
In his view, Han Yang Immortal just symbolically took some things and slightly punished them.
However, the total number of resources and s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps these people had was quite large.
“We’re getting rich!”
Immortal Master Waterheaven was rather excited.
Immortal Master Wuluo stared at the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps around him.
These fleets were quite valuable if they were added together.
This was the effect that Zhang Han wanted.
Since Immortal Master Waterheaven treated him and his people well, he would repay the Highest Clouds Palace.
Back then, Immortal Master Waterheaven had lost so much that he nearly went bankrupt.
Now Zhang Han would make the Highest Clouds Palace a super sect.
Therefore, Zhang Han asked the Grand Masters of those forces who originally wanted to get some benefits in person to explain themselves.
By doing that, they needed to offer their resources.
Finally, everyone left, and Zhang Han didn’t care about the Holy Thunder Sect anymore.
The Sect Leader of the Holy Thunder Sect had died. Without a Peak-Stage Tribulation Stage expert, the sect would still be a first-rate force. However, as far as the current scale was concerned, the Highest Clouds Palace was no match for the Holy Thunder Sect.
The Highest Clouds Palace would develop steadily. With Zhang Han in charge, the Holy Thunder Sect wouldn’t dare to make trouble.
“Let’s go back.”
Zhang Han and the others flew back to the main hall of the Highest Clouds Palace.
“I’m afraid that it won’t be long before my name is spread out.”
Zhang Han could not help laughing.
Yue Wuwei said with emotion, “At that time, I thought you were a newcomer who knew nothing. This is unexpected.”
“…”
While they were chatting casually.
In the Dongruo Holy Land on the other side.
“What? Immortal Master Diming showed up?”
“He knows Han Yang Immortal, and he even cupped his hands and saluted. He said that he would hold a banquet… Is it true? Can such a small fight attract Immortal Master Diming?”
“Who is that Han Yang Immortal?”
“Fortunately, we didn’t act rashly. Otherwise, we would’ve caused an enormous calamity,” The Grand Master of the Dongruo Holy Land gasped.
“In this case, it’s also possible that Immortal Master Wumo didn’t make it out alive because of Han Yang Immortal.”
“Watch your words!” The Grand Master of the Dongruo Holy Land looked gloomy, and his tone was cold. “Don’t talk nonsense. At least don’t spread any rumors before we know the ident.i.ty of Han Yang Immortal.”
“Yes, Grand Master!”
It wasn’t just the Dongruo Holy Land. The major powers of the Seventh and Eighth Mountains were the first to learn of the matter. They were also very curious.
“What made Immortal Master Diming go over in person?”
“Who is Han Yang Immortal?”
It didn’t take long for news to spread from the Holy Land.
“According to reliable information, Han Yang Immortal was a super expert at the Peak Stage of the Tribulation Stage a thousand years ago. He was famous all over the world, and there were not many Grand Masters who could compete with him.”
“Back then, he wiped out the top ten super sects in a few months.”
“Back then, he fought in all directions without a single defeat!”
“Back then, he went through the final Heavenly Tribulation and summoned the divine thunder over the sky!”
“When Han Yang Immortal failed to pa.s.s the tribulation and was banned by the Great Domain, many people had no memory of him. However, those who had contacted and known him still remember him.”
“Back then, he was a great merciless man in the Cultivation World. He was unparalleled!”
Pieces of news spread out one after another, like a virus, sweeping over the Seventh Mountain, the Eighth Mountain, and even the Ninth, the Sixth, and the Fifth Mountains at an extremely fast speed.
The name of Han Yang Immortal seemed to be full of magic, which shocked the Nine Mountains Region.
