Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jiang Ming raised his palm and slammed down. A large hand that could even cover the sky appeared in the void. It was the Divine Hand technique that he had deduced.
The huge Divine Hand covered the sky, containing boundless power.
Although Jiang Ming only mastered the Laws of Great Overarching, the power generated was a pure and unparalleled power of the Saint, the Saint power of a peak Saint Expert.
The Divine Hand had also incorporated 1,200 laws of Great Overarching and was evoked with Saint Power. This rendered the power of this special ability to be no weaker than any laws of Saint Dao.
As the hand fell, it also imprisoned the surrounding space and time, turning this side of the sky into a cage of imprisonment. Such an act immediately triggered the defensive power of the Five Elemental Sacred Land. Various divine luminance shot into the sky as its great formation began its cycle, revealing the terrifying depth of resources that the Sacred Land possessed.
However, these divine luminance were completely dispersed and the great formation collapsed under the might of the Divine Hand.
The five Sacred Mountain Peaks immediately turned into pillars that supported the sky, spewing out a vast amount of Saint Energy, but they still could not stop the falling palm.
Who knew how many great experts within the Sacred Land were alarmed by this sudden bombardment. There were at least a million disciples here who tilted their heads to watch the whole ordeal. They were initially shocked but became indifferent soon after.
“This must be the special ability evoked by the Patriarch! Awesome! This is truly amazing! A palm that covers the entire sky! Even my divine eyes can’t see any edge of this palm! Who could’ve done this besides the Patriarch at the Saint Realm?”
“This must be a supreme Saint Law that the Patriarch has comprehended.”
“It seems our Patriarch is getting quite naughty. Ahem…”
“How dare you make fun of the Patriarch? Are you sick of living anymore? Still, it also makes sense. He’s trying to scare us, but also to broaden our horizons.”
“No, this is not right. Why did the sect’s protecting formation activate itself?”
......
“Is this the Patriarch wanting to test out the power of the sect’s protecting formation? That shouldn’t be! We are here in the Sacred Land. Who even dares to attack us? Even the Heaven Court is but a little brat to us. They wouldn’t dare to do anything either.”
“That makes sense! Hey, I’ve heard that Senior Brother Chang Yang is going against the Verdant Emperor. In the end, the Verdant Emperor is besieged yet the Heavenly Emperor doesn’t even dare to let out a fart in response. There isn’t any movement at all from him.”
“Heavenly Emperor? Heh! What a joke!”
“Something’s wrong! Guys, look! The great formation has collapsed!”
“Crap! Even the five Sacred Mountains are manifesting themselves at the same time! What’s going on? Even if they are experimenting, it shouldn’t have come to this!”
“Damn it! The Sacred Mountains have collapsed!”
“This is definitely not some experiment! It’s an enemy attack! The enemies are attacking!”
“What kind of person would dare attack our Sacred Land? Is he tired of living already? Could it be that this is a Sacred War?”
*Dong Dong Dong…*
The sect’s alarm bell suddenly rang hastily, coming to 12 rings in a blink of an eye.
Ning rings would mean that the sect had a great enemy and requires everyone to go all out to protect the sect. The only time this had happened was when they were at war with another Sacred Land back then.
As for the 12 rings? It was a legend, yet it rang today. This made all of the disciples shocked.
“To all the disciples of the sect, a great enemy has invaded and the sect is in danger of annihilation. Quickly take your position and evoke the great formation. Protect our sect as we await our Patriarch to exit his retreat. Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!”
It was Chang Tai, the first disciple of the Five Elemental Saint Lord who made the announcement. Usually, he was the one who managed the sect’s affairs and held great power of authority. As he gave out the orders, he also evoked waves and waves of special abilities towards the surroundings, evoking the hidden grand formation. He was trying to block off the attack but it was all in vain.
The five Sacred Mountains had all collapsed. As the overwhelming power poured down, many disciples couldn’t block the emanation of such supreme destructive power. In an instant, many exploded immediately, while their souls dispersed into the void. In just a snap of a finger, 90 percent of the disciples of the Five Elemental Sacred Land were killed.
“Damn it! Who in the world is attacking us? Is it the Heavenly Emperor? No, it’s definitely not him. This is the doing of a Saint. Could it be the expert who killed my son? My son only went to deal with a single Verdant Emperor. How could he have provoked such a peerless being? This shouldn’t be!”
Chang Tai was so overwhelmed in anger that his eyes almost popped out of its socket. As thoughts cycled through his mind, a green lotus could be seen rushing out from the top of his head. Green luminance could be seen blossoming from it as it shot into the sky, blocking the falling palm.
The green lotus was the Twelve-graded Green Lotus. Based on the grades in this world, it was known as the Innate Supreme Treasure, which was akin to the Saint Weapon. It was mainly used for defense and was stronger than the average Saint Weapons.
The green lotus spun around, spewing an infinite amount of lights of orders. It invoked the powers of the Heavenly Dao, forming into an incomparably solid defensive barrier.
This was the supreme treasure given to him by the Five Elemental Saint Lord as a preventive measure. Even he himself did not expect to use this supreme treasure on this day.
The Divine Hand above the sky suddenly paused. Nine stone tablets could be seen appearing in the middle of the palm, forming a large formation. Divine power was spurting out of it, shattering the defensive luminance of the Green Lotus.
The nine stone tablets were the God Sealing Tablet. With nine pieces combined, it was comparable to a Saint Weapon already.
Witnessing his defensive barrier shattering into pieces, Chang Tai’s expression quickly changed. A streak of Saint Energy could be seen accumulating between his eyebrows. Just as he was about to continue evoking the Green Lotus, the Green Lotus trembled, and he actually lost control of the Green Lotus all together.
The Green Lotus could be seen involuntarily absorbed into the palm, disappearing out of sight.
“That’s impossible!” Chang Tai looked as though he had seen a ghost. His face was filled with disbelief.
That was an innate supreme treasure. No one other than the Dao Patriarch could easily take it away from him throughout the vast world. Even though he was only at the perfect stage of the Quasi-Sage Realm, he was confident that it would be difficult for any Saint to snatch this supreme treasure away from him in such a short time. He wasn’t blindly confident at that because he was assured by the Five Elemental Saint Lord.
Yet, it happened right in front of him. The Divine Hand however, also disappeared without a trace.
Following that, Chang Tai saw three figures pacing towards him in the air. The three stood atop the Five Elemental Sacred Land, overlooking them as if they were feeble creatures.
His heart was blazing with fury, yet his body trembled.
“Verdant Emperor!” He recognized the Great Emperor Dongfang at a glance. As for Chenxi, he only took a glance at her before he shifted his focus to Jiang Ming. It was obvious that this person was the leader among the three.
At this point, the Verdant Emperor should have been besieged and Dongfang Chenxi should’ve been captured by his own son. However, his son had died and these two appeared in front of him. Without even needing to think, he knew that his son had been killed by this unfamiliar expert. It even implicated the whole sect into the mess.
Brimming with hatred, he had an extremely sophisticated feeling.
‘Does this count as myself being pitted by my own son?’
Such thoughts ran through Chang Tai’s mind as he was growing taller and taller to be face-to-face with the three at the same time. Meanwhile, a group of disciples appeared behind him. Each of them was vigilant and was preparing to go all out in confronting great enemies.
“Who are you? Why are you attacking our Five Elemental Sacred Land?” Chang Tai forcefully suppressed the ripples in his mind and was extremely alert to what was coming next.
His master had yet to come out of his cultivation retreat. Hence, he had to stall for time.
“I’m here to destroy this Sacred Land of yours!” Jiang Ming replied with a smile.
When Jiang Ming evoked the Divine Hand, he didn’t expect to wipe the whole Sacred Land with just a single special ability. However, the fact that the Five Elemental Saint Lord hadn’t shown himself really surprised him.
‘Still not showing yourself? Heh! I’ll force you out whatever it takes.’
When he saw Chang Tai evoking the Green Lotus, Jiang Ming took this opportunity and evoked the Infinite Vessel Manipulation Technique, taking away that weapon of his. He kept it within the Human Path Record, suppressing it inside before pacing over here with Chenxi and the Verdant Emperor.
‘Sacred Land? Well, I’m standing right above you.’
“You are Chang Tai, Chang Yang’s father, right? When he died, you should’ve sensed it through the power of bloodline. Why didn’t you do anything?” Jiang Ming inquired curiously.
The corners of Chang Tai’s lips were twitching uncontrollably. He still answered earnestly,”Those who are able to kill my son Chang Yang know that he is my son. Even if he were to rile up sky-defying troubles, most would’ve given him way for my sake. They wouldn’t go as far as to kill him. However, he is now dead and this happened when there was even a Quasi-Sage right by his side. Such a scenario could only mean that the killer is not afraid of the existence of our Five Elemental Sacred Land. Seeing this, it’s natural that I wouldn’t take actions hastily. If I can afford to provoke this person, then the killer would be dead either way. It wouldn’t matter much if I waited for a few days to do so. If I can’t afford to deal with this killer, then there is no point in rushing. Chang Tai is already dead after all.”
“That’s a good temperament you have there.” Jiang Ming nodded approvingly. “I thought that when an expert like you who lost his beloved son, he would be the first to go berserk!”
Chang Tai smiled wryly as he replied, “I’m actually furious. After all, it’s very, very difficult to bore a child now that I’ve reached such a cultivation realm. After Chang Yang was born, I doted on him and he even received blessings from my master. Because of this, he has developed a lawless character, so much so that he now suffers from a calamity today.”
