Chapter 320: Me?! Soul Form Sect’s Sect Master!
When they saw w.a.n.g Kaijing appear, everyone knew how important the Immeasurable Emperor was to this ghost eradication operation.
Because w.a.n.g Kaijing wasn’t only one of the cabinet elders, but also like a teacher to the Immeasurable Emperor.
The fact that he was able to personally come to the Ghost Extermination a.s.sembly from the high and mighty court was enough to show how important this operation was to him and the Immeasurable Emperor.
Then, everyone went forward and bowed.
w.a.n.g Kai returned the greetings respectfully.
!!
Li Dehe then said, “The appearance of the Ghost Sea is a huge challenge to Immeasurable Heaven.”
“As the saying goes, a snake can’t do without a head. Pavilion Master w.a.n.g is a person trusted by the Immeasurable Emperor. He is highly respected and is a very suitable candidate for leading us to cleanse the Ghost Sea and return peace to the world!”
When he said this, no one present felt that he was flattering him. Instead, they felt that he was being sincere.
After all, w.a.n.g Kaijing’s ident.i.ty and status were high.
He was attending the Ghost Extermination a.s.sembly in person, so the leader of this operation was naturally him.
w.a.n.g Kaijing shook his head and smiled. “I attended this meeting to understand the relevant actions and details on behalf of the Great Emperor. I won’t interfere with your actions.”
“After all, I’m not a martial artist, nor am I an expert in eliminating ghosts. There’s no need for an outsider to guide an insider.”
Hearing his words, Li Dehe and the others revealed looks of respect.
As expected of the elder of Immeasurable Heaven’s fifth dynasty. His words were filled with logic and magnanimity.
w.a.n.g Kaijing glanced at everyone and continued,
“And the leader of this operation is about to appear. I believe everyone will have no objections to him.”
“I see. Then we’ll wait for this expert to appear.”
Li Dehe and the others had impressed expressions.
Since w.a.n.g Kaijing said so, this person’s ident.i.ty and status must be higher than those of Li Dehe and the other two sect masters.
Moreover, Li Dehe, Zhao Dinglei, Feng Keqin, and the others had even guessed who that person was.
Phew ~
At this moment, a boundless white light enveloped the entire palace square.
In the dazzling light, hundreds of huge white-feathered Heavenly Rocs came with a mighty momentum.
On their backs stood thousands of martial arts experts in white.
The leader was dressed in a white robe, had silver hair, and the bearing of an immortal.
What was even more eye-catching was that there was a faint layer of mist around him.
There were three-colored lights flickering in the clouds. They were like immortals in the world with impressive appearances.
“So it’s the Holy Lord of Heavenly Secrets!”
Li Dehe and the others revealed looks of awe.
The Heavenly Secret Holy Land was one of the six most powerful Holy Lands in the Immeasurable Heaven.
Other than having millions of disciples, the most admirable thing about them was that they were very proficient in ghost hunting.
It could be said that in terms of dealing with ghosts, the Heavenly Secret Holy Land was the mentor of the Mao Yun Sect, the Divine Thunder Sect, and the Purple Cloud Sect.
In the legend of the martial arts world in Immeasurable Heaven, the Heavenly Secret Holy Land had 108 ghost-slaying techniques and three ghost-slaying powers.
Even top-notch ghost-catching sects like them had some spells that came from the Heavenly Secret Holy Land.
From this, it could be seen that when facing the Ghost Sea this time, the Heavenly Secret Holy Land was the true leader.
As for the Holy Land’s Holy Lord, Ning Xuanyuan, not only was he an Emperor Realm powerhouse, but he also had a thousand immortal techniques and mystic techniques. Furthermore, he had a deep relationship with w.a.n.g Kaijing.
It was no wonder that even w.a.n.g Kaijing was unwilling to be the leader of this operation, because Ning Xuanyuan was more capable and prestigious than him.
After Ning Xuanyuan landed with the Holy Land’s elites, w.a.n.g Kaijing hurriedly went forward and cupped his hands with a smile.
“Brother Xuanyuan, I received news that you were preparing to partic.i.p.ate in the Ghost Extermination a.s.sembly, so I wanted to come and take a look myself.”
“It’s only been a few days since we last met, but you’ve become much sharper.”
Ning Xuanyuan returned the greeting and said with a smile, “Brother Jiejing, you also seem to be in high spirits. How impressive!”
The two of them looked at each other and smiled. Their relationship was indeed very good.
Li Dehe and the others also went forward and bowed to Ning Xuanyuan one by one, their words filled with awe and flattery.
After everyone finished greeting each other, the exorcism conference went straight to the point.
Li Dehe said, “The Holy Lord of Heavenly Secrets is the number one person in the Immeasurable Heaven. Please tell us the specific plan of the operation!”
Zhao Dinglei and the others nodded in agreement.
Ning Xuanyuan’s cultivation was profound and he was very experienced. Being able to receive his guidance was also a form of luck for the three major Ghost Hunting Sects.
“Okay.”
Ning Xuanyuan nodded and was about to turn around and walk to the high platform at the front of the venue.
At this moment, a figure flashed and stood on the high platform first.
Huh?
Everyone was stunned.
Someone actually dared to s.n.a.t.c.h Ning Xuanyuan’s seat in front of him!
Furthermore, the person who s.n.a.t.c.hed the seat was from the Heavenly Secret Holy Land!
Ning Xuanyuan looked at the figure on the stage in shock and said sternly, “Yi Chen, what are you doing?”
Yi Chen was a young man in his twenties. A sinister look appeared on his handsome face as he said playfully,
“You’re not suitable to be the leader of this operation. Let me do it!”
Swish!
The moment he said this, everyone was shocked.
A disciple of the Heavenly Secret Holy Land actually dared to humiliate his Holy Lord in public. His courage was really shocking!
After calming down and thinking about it, everyone felt that something was wrong!
Li Dehe and the others had a feeling that Yi Chen’s background might not be simple.
A hint of killing intent appeared in Ning Xuanyuan’s eyes. However, as the Holy Lord of a generation, he naturally wouldn’t attack rashly. Instead, he said,
“Who are you?”
He also guessed that Yi Chen was most likely hiding an extraordinary ident.i.ty.
Yi Chen swept his gaze across the crowd and sneered. “Me?! The Sect Master of the Soul Form Sect!”
Soul Form Sect!
Everyone was shocked when they heard this name.
Because more than a hundred thousand years ago, this was a very terrifying ghostly cultivator sect in Immeasurable Heaven.
At that time, the strength of that sect definitely wasn’t inferior to the current Heavenly Secret Holy Land.
It had to be known that during the ghost extermination operation 150,000 years ago, the Soul Form Sect was jointly besieged by thousands of large sects from Immeasurable Heaven and Crimson Nimbus Heaven before it was destroyed.
From this, it could be seen how terrifying this sect was and how powerful the sect master was.
No one present would have thought that the sect master of the Soul Form Sect was still alive and had even become a disciple of the Heavenly Secret Holy Land!
“So it’s you, evil creature!”
Ning Xuanyuan gritted his teeth in anger. At this moment, his killing intent was obvious.
As a mighty Holy Lord, he actually didn’t realize that Yi Chen was the sect master of the Soul Form Sect. This was a huge humiliation to him.
What was even worse was that it was he who had promoted Yi Chen from an ordinary disciple to his personal disciple.
This made him feel like he had raised a venemous snake. Now, it was going to bite him!
However!
As a Holy Lord, even if the other party was the Sect Master of the Soul Form Sect, he wasn’t afraid!
“Evil creature, die!”
Ning Xuanyuan’s right hand emitted a terrifying mystic light as he slapped towards Yi Chen’s head.
“Hehehe!”
Facing Ning Xuan and Xuanyuan Jingtian’s attacks, Yi Chen didn’t move at all. Instead, he had a smug smile on his face.
“Kneel!”
With his order, Ning Xuanyuan suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest.
A terrifying mystic energy instantly invaded his internal organs and meridians, forcefully cutting off the circulation of the spiritual energy in his body.
“Ah ~”
Ning Xuanyuan cried out in pain and knelt on the ground with a bang, his head covered in cold sweat.
Everyone was shocked to see that Ning Xuanyuan’s skin was covered in black patterns.
The pattern was very strange and terrifying, like some kind of water gra.s.s.
As for Li Dehe, Zhao Dinglei, and Feng Keqin, their pupils dilated after they studied it carefully.
“Ghost Seaweed!”
