Chapter 338: Chapter 183: I Mean, Everyone Here Is Trash
Wang Xiao thought to himself.
He hadn’t learned much about the Great Cauldron from Celestial Extremist.
It seemed the only way to find out what the Great Cauldron truly was would be to enter the Human Ancestral Land.
"Are you really not afraid of death? In this situation, only my Demon Race can save you. Not even the Great Ye Kingdom’s Court can interfere with the actions of the Holy Lands and Sects."
Seeing Wang Xiao unmoved, Ao Guang grew anxious.
Wang Xiao said calmly:
"Just wait here quietly. When the time comes, I’ll let you out."
"Of course, if you think you can escape, you’re welcome to try and break out of the prison I’ve set. I won’t stop you."
Ao Guang’s voice caught in his throat, a trace of fear on his face.
The agony of being sliced by a thousand cuts instantly flooded his mind again.
The Golden-Winged Roc and the giant winged serpent naturally didn’t dare say another word either.
If they could have broken out, they wouldn’t have willingly handed over their Venerable Spiritual Treasures and Magical Treasures in the first place!
Wang Xiao ignored Ao Guang and the others. His Inner World trembled slightly as he began to silently connect with this Grotto Heaven.
This Grotto Heaven contained tens of thousands of years of Celestial Extremist’s cultivation.
It was the very essence of his being.
Comprehending this Grotto Heaven would also benefit Wang Xiao’s future cultivation.
’This Celestial Extremist wasn’t particularly strong. Although he was a Celestial Venerable, he never comprehended Origin. The Grotto Heaven he condensed is completely incapable of hosting a planetary consciousness.’
’Moreover, the Celestial Venerables of this world seem to be heavily influenced by Heaven and Earth. Every time they act, they might face backlash from the world itself!’
’That’s why Celestial Venerables rarely make a move in the world today, making Venerables the strongest active combatants!’
Wang Xiao silently perceived the power of this Grotto Heaven.
He had a general idea why the cultivators of this world had this issue.
It seemed to be because they skipped the step of condensing a Dao Fruit.
They used the Power of the Great Dao directly to transform their Divine Palace into an internal Grotto Heaven.
Just like that, Wang Xiao continued to comprehend Celestial Extremist’s Grotto Heaven Power while he waited in silence.
「Two months later.」
WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
「Outside Celestial Extinction Mountain.」
Figure after figure flew over at incredible speeds.
Some rode on streaks of sword light, some traveled in chariots, some walked on air, and some even rode on Demon Beasts.
Some powerful cultivators or cultivation Sects often raised Demon Beasts to serve as mounts!
Although these Demon Beasts were demons, they had been completely tamed and could even fight against the Demon Race!
As these figures tore through the sky, a thunderous roar surged like a tide, kicking up gusts of wind that swept across Heaven and Earth.
If any other cultivators were here, they would be scared out of their wits upon seeing these figures.
Every single person who arrived radiated a faint divine, golden light, their vast and powerful auras flooding the sky.
They were all Venerable-level experts!
In all of Ye State, these were figures who could Call the Wind and Summon the Rain, stirring up the Wind and Cloud of the world.
Yet, at this moment, all of them had gathered here!
"I never expected him to be so bold. He hasn’t moved at all in two months."
An old man with white hair and a white beard stared at Celestial Extinction Mountain, his gaze sharp.
"Heh, he even dared to take my Ten Thousand Rivers Celestial Lotus. His courage is certainly extraordinary, but I wonder if his strength matches it," a veiled, graceful woman said faintly.
Nearby, Lin Miaoyi spoke up:
"Master, this person was able to capture all of us, as well as Ao Guang and the other elites from the major Demon Race clans, before he had even become a Venerable. His strength is not to be underestimated."
A Daoist with a wine gourd at his waist and a sharp sword on his back said indifferently:
"Blessed Infinite Celestial Venerable. This man’s strength is certainly impressive, or he wouldn’t have dared to do such a thing. However, I am quite curious about his origins. It seems neither the Human Ancestral Land nor the Great Ye Court has ever seen someone like him. Judging by his methods, he doesn’t seem to be a descendant of the Divine Race or the Demon Race either."
"Could he be an Overseas Dragon from another state?!"
A man dressed as a scholar narrowed his eyes.
"That is indeed possible. He let Fang Dongliu and the others leave, yet he remains here. It’s obvious he’s plotting something. It’s almost as if he was deliberately waiting for us to arrive."
A burly man with a proud stance, holding a long saber, snorted coldly.
"Hmph, this time, our two Holy Lands and six Major Sects have all come. With more than a dozen Venerables here, you think we can’t take down a junior who just recently became a Venerable?!"
"Enough nonsense. Since he’s here, let’s just break this Grotto Heaven, then capture and interrogate him. We’ll naturally find out his background then!"
As he spoke, he leaped into the air, ignoring Celestial Extinction Mountain’s flight restrictions and hovering in mid-air.
The long saber in his hand erupted with a blade glow that tore through the void, emitting a dense Essence of Gold Qi and a chilling killing intent as he slashed violently at the massive Grotto Heaven suspended above Celestial Extinction Mountain!
Seeing this, the others also prepared to use their own techniques and Divine Techniques to shatter the Grotto Heaven directly!
However, just then, a ray of Divine Light shot up into the sky. It instantly shattered the massive saber light, then tore through ten thousand miles of clouds, heading straight for the burly man!
"How dare you!"
The burly man snorted coldly. The light from his saber erupted, seemingly transforming into a golden dragon that slashed out in a rage!
The golden dragon and the Divine Light collided, sending out vast and powerful ripples.
The void trembled violently, churning the clouds for ten thousand miles!
The next moment, BANG!
The golden dragon was utterly shattered by the impact of the Divine Light.
The burly man’s expression changed drastically. He retreated dozens of miles, nearly losing control and falling from the sky.
"Hmm?!"
Seeing this, the expressions of the others changed slightly.
They knew that this burly man was from the Tai Sui Sect.
This sect mainly cultivated Tai Sui Power; both their strength and Saber Technique were considered top-tier.
Yet he had been sent flying in a single blow.
Just as everyone was looking on in shock and suspicion,
the void within the Grotto Heaven began to shift and change, revealing the scene inside.
Everyone focused their gaze and saw a youth in simple cloth robes, no more than five feet tall, sitting cross-legged on a prayer mat.
The youth’s aura was peaceful, yet an air of command over Heaven and Earth flowed from him.
The moment he appeared, it was as if everything between Heaven and Earth began to revolve around him.
An expert!
A peerless expert!
Everyone looked at the youth, their hearts trembling involuntarily as if they had been locked onto by a special power.
「Inside the spatial prison.」
Ao Guang stared at the scene outside the Grotto Heaven, his body trembling violently.
"The Wine Sword Immortal from the Three Pristine Sacred Land, the Pu Xuan Celestial Maiden from the Jasper Pool Sacred Land, Xiaoyaozi from the Carefree Sect, Gong Zhu from the Tai Sui Sect, and also Jinglong Mountain, Destruction Dao, Yunni Nunnery, Celestial Zen Sect... The Venerables from the two Holy Lands and six Major Sects are all here!"
"He’s insane, this man is truly insane! He’s really going to fight an entire state by himself..."
"More than a dozen Venerables working together, and they must have brought Celestial Venerable Spiritual Treasures with them. Even a Celestial Venerable would have to give them a wide berth."
"What is he trying to do? Does he really think he’s invincible?!"
Ao Guang’s breathing grew ragged.
He was currently trapped by Wang Xiao with no way to escape.
If Wang Xiao died and he was captured by these Holy Land Sects, his fate would likely not be a pleasant one.
Just as Ao Guang was reeling in shock and doubt,
Wang Xiao rose to his feet and gazed at the group of Venerables outside the Grotto Heaven.
"The Tai Sui Sect’s Dragon Transformation Saber doesn’t seem to be all that special!"
His calm voice reached the ears of every Venerable present.
There was no strong emotion in his voice, as if he were stating the most ordinary of facts.
However, when the Venerables heard his voice, they all felt their hearts jolt, as if thousands of thunderbolts had exploded within them.
Gong Zhu of the Tai Sui Sect transformed into a streak of light and flew back, narrowing his eyes.
"You have some nerve. It seems you truly intend to make enemies of our Holy Lands and Sects!"
Wang Xiao’s gaze was calm and indifferent. He smiled faintly.
"Make enemies? With you? It seems you aren’t worthy."
He paused, then his gaze swept over everyone as his voice thundered:
"Don’t misunderstand. I’m not saying the Tai Sui Sect is trash. I’m saying that everyone present here—every single one of you—is trash!"
The moment these words were spoken, BOOM!
Divine Light erupted from the bodies of all the Venerables.
Waves of killing intent shot to the heavens, instantly locking onto Wang Xiao!
