Chapter 640: Chapter 266: Jiang Shi Returns! Turmoil in the Celestial Demon Sect!
On the black plain.
Jiang Shi’s convoy continued to move forward.
The other convoys couldn’t hide their shock, whispering among themselves, and soon followed closely behind Jiang Shi and his group, afraid of another interception by the Underground People.
Inside the carriage, a glint flashed in Jiang Shi’s eyes as he stared at an almost ethereal elixir pill in his hand. Its surface was hazy and extremely blurred, resembling a phantom caught between reality and illusion, looking mysterious and strange.
Nirvana Pill!
This is the Nirvana Pill.
Even holding it in hand, there was an illusion of lightness, as if it were air.
And after being refined, there was no pill tribulation?
"Truly bizarre."
Jiang Shi muttered to himself, quickly opening his mouth to swallow the vague and mystical pill, closing his eyes to begin its refinement.
The journey ahead remained far from calm.
The distance between this Western Desert and the Central State was particularly difficult to traverse, with chaotic forces frequently clashing and many skilled fighters leaping around here as if searching for something.
However, after the previous incident, no one dared to search Jiang Shi’s group again.
This caused Grand Elder Cangwu, Fire King, and Earth King to all furrow their brows, vaguely guessing that most of the experts moving back and forth were members of the Senluo Hall.
The opposing side must have received an order from above, thus refraining from searching further.
This made Grand Elder Cangwu and the others even more puzzled.
Who exactly could make the people of the Senluo Hall go to such great lengths searching?
As Jiang Shi silently cultivated.
Half a month later, the convoy finally entered the land of Central State completely.
However, they didn’t stay long in Central State and quickly headed south toward the Celestial Demon Headquarters.
After such a long absence, Jiang Shi was curious to see how Ying Tianxiong’s sons had competed for the position of Sect Leader.
It was time for him to clean up the mess.
Lest they exhaust the sect’s fortunes!
"Truly innate Vajra, Meng Fang from the Meng Family is simply terrifying. He swept across the world as soon as he emerged, invincible!"
"An innate Vajra hasn’t been seen in millennia, yet another has appeared, fitting for one of the Ancient Five Races."
"Now all true strongmen have vanished, with Meng Fang’s emergence, who in the world can stand against him?"
"This Meng Fang is absolutely overbearing, he came out forcefully uniting thirteen Martial Arts Grand Sects, and now his target points directly at the Great Heng Royal Family; tut-tut, the royal family is in big trouble lately!"
Voices of shock echoed from a distance, causing Jiang Shi to furrow his brows slightly, peeking out of the carriage again to look ahead.
Meng Fang has emerged again...
"This guy’s growth rate is truly terrifying!"
Jiang Shi’s heart surged.
However!
Now, I am no longer the person I used to be.
Back on that small island, though my realm was inferior to Meng Fang, I could still fight him evenly, resulting in mutual destruction. Now that I’ve officially reached the second realm of Nirvana, I fear Meng Fang even less.
Honestly, after such a long absence, I really do miss Meng Fang a bit now.
With the corner of his mouth curling into a faint smirk, Jiang Shi then closed the curtain of the carriage again.
...
...
Time passed.
In another direction.
Where the Celestial Demon Headquarters is located.
"Kill!!"
In the dim night, cold shouts echoed. Shadows clad in black moved swiftly, wielding long swords and striking like lightning, besieging the sparse number of white-robed figures at the forefront. The clashing of metal rang continuously, sparking flying everywhere.
There were over twenty black-clad figures, each a formidable hand, striking coldly and viciously. Despite the white-robed figures’ desperate resistance, it was in vain, and they continued to fall to the ground, meeting tragic deaths.
The entire ground was successively stained crimson with swathes of blood, emitting a pungent stench.
In the deepest part of this residence stood an old man with white hair and beard, looking extremely burly. His eyes sharp as torches, he stood encircled by black-clad figures, drenched in blood, roaring loudly like a frenzied beast.
"Ninth Young Master, I know you are behind this, come out, come out and meet me! I have devoted my entire life loyally, earning great merits for the Sect Leader. Even when the Sect Leader was alive, he never moved against me, why are you so ruthless? Come out, come out quickly, come see me!"
The old man’s voice thundered with grief and fury, madly attacking the black-clad figures around him.
But the black-clad figures around him showed no signs of hesitation, continuing to encircle him with full force.
In the chaotic clashes, the old man was soon pierced through the chest by several long swords, followed by a sword striking from above into the top of his head, piercing into his heart.
The old man’s eyes widened in anger, blood spewing from his seven orifices, filled with intense unwillingness, his body swayed, and he finally fell backward.
No one in the residence remained alive.
The black-clad figures moved like the wind, immediately starting to clean the battlefield.
Not long after.
A gloomy-faced man in a green robe emerged from a dark corner, his sharp gaze looking coldly toward the residence ahead. "Elder Bai, don’t blame me; blame it on your lack of tact. I didn’t want to move against you!"
"Young Master, what’s the next step?"
Suddenly, an old man appeared beside the green-robed man, his eyes flickering, "Now that the Second Young Master’s experts are basically all cleared, only Venerable Bai Mei is still staunchly protecting the Second Young Master. Should we seize the opportunity to also..."
