Chapter 260: A Peerless Expert Is About to Appear!
North of Dongyuan Heaven, at the top of Dragon G.o.d Mountain.
At this moment, the huge square was already filled with people. There were more than eighty thousand people.
These people were all sect masters, elders, and protectors of the large sects in the northern region of Dongyuan Heaven.
Therefore, not only was their status very high, but their martial strength was also extraordinary.
Even though they had restrained their auras, it still caused astral winds to roil on the mountain peak, and it was filled with an oppressive aura.
!!
Because many people were very familiar with each other, the entire square was noisy.
“I didn’t expect the demons to be so overboard this time. They killed thousands of people overnight. They’re clearly looking down on our sects in the north!”
“Hmph, the demons in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm have always been suppressed by us human cultivators. I didn’t expect them to become more and more arrogant in recent years. It seems like we have to teach them a lesson!”
“Today, all eight hundred top-notch sects of our northern region will gather at the Demon Elimination a.s.sembly. This time, we must eliminate the demons of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range!”
…
Many people had indignant expressions.
The Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range was located near the northern border of Dongyuan Heaven. It was a very huge and mysterious primitive mountain range.
It was rumored that not only were there many dangerous traps, but at least ten large demons lived there.
But over the years, the demons in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range had never walked out on a large scale, and they didn’t dare to launch a large-scale slaughter of the humans in Dongyuan Heaven.
Unexpectedly, just last night, there was suddenly news of a large number of demons moving out.
They directly targeted a few small sects in the north of Dongyuan Heaven and wiped out these small sects overnight while slaughtering thousands of people.
This… aroused the unanimous anger of the eight hundred sects present!
Because the demons of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range actually dared to attack the martial arts sect, they were clearly challenging the martial arts world in the north of Dongyuan Heaven!
When he saw everyone’s indignant expressions, Ru Yinjiang, who was dressed in a white robe and had a refined aura, couldn’t help but reveal a meaningful smile.
He walked to the front of everyone and said loudly,
“Everyone, you’re right. This time, we must sweep through the entire Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range and let the demons know that sects like us can’t be trifled with!”
“However, the demons in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range are unfathomable. In order to have complete confidence in winning this battle, we still have to choose a leader and attack under his lead!”
Everyone present nodded to themselves.
They had to have a leader.
Such a large-scale operation was a full-scale war against all the demons in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range.
Such a large-scale operation was a full-scale war against all the demons in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range.
Ru Yingjiang scanned the crowd and smiled confidently.
“I would like to recommend myself as the leader. What do you all think?”
Everyone present nodded silently.
In Dongyuan Heaven, other than the Holy Lands, the Elusive World Immortal Sect was one of the top super sects.
As a quasi Emperor Realm powerhouse, not only was Ru Yingjiang extremely powerful, but he also had a lifespan of more than 18,000 years. He was qualified.
Furthermore, it was rumored in the martial arts world that he had already cultivated his sect’s ultimate technique, the Ethereal Immortal Art, to the Formation Realm.
If he used his full strength, he could use this cultivation technique to form eighty-one Dao Swords.
Every Dao Sword had the power of an immortal technique. It could overturn mountains and seas, and it could even kill Emperor Realm cultivators!
Since he had spoken and no one present was stronger than him, he was naturally the most suitable candidate.
“Alright, we’re willing to nominate Sect Master Ru as the leader!”
Everyone hurriedly said.
“Hehe, alright. I definitely won’t disappoint you all and will lead everyone to wipe out the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range!” Ru Yingjiang was overjoyed.
As a large sect that had been governed by Dongyuan Heaven for a long time, he had coveted the Holy Land’s status for a long, long time.
Now, the sect masters, elders, and other higher-ups of the eight hundred great sects in the north were all here and had already elected him as the leader.
In that case, as long as he brought these people into a trap, he would definitely be able to kill them all.
When that time came…
His Elusive World Immortal Sect could easily annex the factions of these sects and become a Holy Land-level colossus.
And these people had elected him as the leader so easily. The progress of the matter had simply exceeded his expectations!
“If you want to be the leader, I think you’re still a little lacking!”
At this moment, a deep voice sounded in the square.
Everyone looked over and saw a gray-robed man rushing over with thousands of people.
The gray-robed man had lightning on his back. With every step he took, there seemed to be a thunderclap under his feet as lightning flashed.
“It’s Sect Master Lei of the Profound Heaven Sect!”
The person who came was Dongyuan Heaven’s Profound Heaven Sect’s Sect Master, Lei Hongguang.
As for his Profound Heaven Sect, it was a top-notch sect on par with the Elusive World Immortal Sect.
As the sect master, not only was Lei Hongguang at the quasi Emperor Realm like Ru Yingjiang,
but he had also mastered his sect’s ultimate technique, the Mystic Heaven’s Seventy-two Swords, to the extreme.
According to the legends, it was very likely that he had already deduced the 73rd sword technique and could instantly kill a quasi Emperor Realm cultivator!
Therefore, Lei Hongguang’s appearance meant that Ru Ying had another evenly matched opponent.
And speaking of the grudge between the Profound Heaven Sect and the Elusive Immortal Sect, it really had a long history.
Over the years, the two sects had been fighting for the position of the number one sect in Dongyuan Heaven.
Furthermore, thousands of years ago, the elders and disciples of the two sects had fought in various mystic realms.
They really hated each other!
Now that Lei Hongguang suddenly appeared with his disciples, everyone was hesitant.
After all, these two were the masters of top sects. No matter who they chose, they would offend the other.
For now, they could only remain silent and wait for them to decide the outcome.
Unexpectedly, facing Lei Hongguang, Ru Yingjiang wasn’t angry, but smiled instead. “So it’s Sect Master Lei!”
Lei Hongguang went forward and said, “Destroying the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range is no small matter. No matter who wants to be the leader, they have to undergo a strict screening!”
After hearing that Ru Yingjiang would be attending the Demon Elimination a.s.sembly, Lei Hongguang decided to come and stir up trouble.
Otherwise, once Ru Yingjiang used this conference to command the eight hundred major sects, the prestige of the Elusive World Immortal Sect would surpa.s.s that of the Profound Heaven Sect.
This was something Lei Hongguang didn’t want to see!
Ru Yinjiang sneered. “Sect Master Lei, if you want to compete with me, you can just say it!”
Lei Hongguang held the boundless lightning in his hand and turned it into a lightning sword. “Since you know, take this!”
“Mystic Heaven’s 73 Swords!”
He revolved his true essence and gathered all the lightning in his body. He used his full strength on the first slash.
When they saw that he really used the seventy-third sword, everyone present swallowed hard in fear.
This slash was said to be able to instantly kill a quasi Emperor Realm cultivator. It was obvious how terrifying it was!
“Hmph!”
Ru Yinjiang’s expression didn’t change.
Suddenly, he turned into a shadow and bypa.s.sed Lei Hongguang’s lightning sword like a ghost before slapping his palm on Lei Hongguang’s chest.
“Ah!” Lei Hongguang screamed.
He felt a very strange power invade his body and instantly plunder most of his true essence.
Bang!
In the blink of an eye, Lei Hongguang’s body weakened and he fell heavily to the ground while spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood.
“What… what cultivation technique is this?”
Ru Yinjiang sneered and didn’t answer.
This move was the superior-grade heaven-rank cultivation technique, Star Absorption Technique, that he had obtained from the Demon Emperor.
This cultivation technique could forcefully plunder most of the opponent’s true essence to increase one’s strength.
In other words, Ru Yinjiang now had about twice the power of a quasi Emperor Realm cultivator.
Because he and Lei Hongguang were both at the quasi Emperor Realm, he now possessed strength comparable to that of the Emperor Realm!
Hiss ~
Sensing the pressure that instantly doubled, the eighty thousand plus people present were shocked.
Everyone hurriedly lowered their heads and said, “Sect Master Ru’s strength is peerless. We are willing to follow your orders and work together to eliminate the demons!”
“Hahaha, good! Very good!” Ru Yinjiang laughed loudly and felt extremely arrogant.
At the same time, he glanced at everyone present mockingly.
His goal wasn’t to be their leader, but to annex all of their territories!
“Father, stop!”
At this moment, a clear and angry voice sounded.
Ru Qingwan rushed into the venue alone.
Seeing her walk over, Ru Yingjiang couldn’t help but reveal killing intent. “Wan’er, why are you here?”
Ru Qingwan frowned and said, “Father, I’m here to stop you! Hurry up and stop before I announce this to the public. Come back with me!”
“Hmph, nonsense! I’m upright. What’s there to be ashamed of?”
Ru Yinjiang’s killing intent soared. “I think you’ve gone crazy from cultivating recently and are delirious. You actually dare to threaten me in public?”
As he spoke, he raised his hand and grabbed Ru Qingwan.
Ru Qingwan felt a terrifying killing intent charge at her. Under this killing intent, she was completely unable to resist.
“Father, don’t…”
Bang!!!
Just as Ru Yingjiang’s hand was about to grab Ru Qingwan’s head, suddenly, a terrifying spiritual energy exploded and sent Ru Yinjiang flying dozens of feet.
“What?”
Everyone was shocked.
Ru Yinjiang, who had instantly defeated Lei Hongguang with a strike and had boundless power, was actually sent flying with a single move.
This…
“A peerless powerhouse is about to appear!”
Everyone hurriedly turned around.
They saw Lin Xuan walking over with Mu Youqing and the others in his arms.
Ru Qingwan hurriedly bowed and said, “Thank you for your help, Consort!”
Consort?
Hearing this t.i.tle, the eighty thousand plus people, including Ru Yingjiang, trembled and they were instantly stunned.
Then, everyone’s pupils suddenly dilated.
“The North Mystic Heaven’s Consort is here!”
