Chapter 1942: Chapter 1945: Bloody Inquisition
The martial artists and demon gods on the plaza could clearly hear the conversations of these Sea Jizong Sect disciples.
Many people showed a hint of anger on their faces.
The martial artists and demon gods on this plaza were all well-known figures, when have they ever been subjected to such humiliation and disdain?
Chu Fengmian frowned, feeling a bit displeased in his heart.
The conversations of these Sea Jizong Sect disciples were indeed too arrogant, they simply disregarded everyone.
However, the Sea Jizong Sect was the largest sect in the Canghai Star Domain, rumored to have the inheritance of the ancient Sea God.
The strength of each of these Sea Jizong Sect disciples was considered to be invincible in the same realm, and many of them showed extreme disdain for the martial artists and demon gods outside.
Although many martial artists and demon gods on the plaza looked angry, for now, no one took action, merely letting out a few cold snorts.
After all, they had all come to participate in the recruitment gathering of the Sea Jizong Sect, and at this moment, they didn’t want to start a conflict.
"Boom!"
After all the Sea Jizong Sect disciples stood in position, a dominant and boundless aura suddenly descended.
A middle-aged man appeared, emitting an extremely terrifying aura. Some of the slightly weaker Nine Tribulations Ancient Emperors could hardly bear the aura of this middle-aged man.
This middle-aged man was a half-step Heavenly Human Realm expert, but he was far stronger than an ordinary half-step Heavenly Human Realm, more formidable than Lin Langjie, whom Chu Fengmian had killed before, just a step away from the peak of half-step Heavenly Human Realm.
"Is this the Sea King Ping Sheng of Sea Jizong Sect?"
Chu Fengmian glanced at this middle-aged man, and through Hai Shisi’s memories, he fully grasped the identity of this man.
Sea King Ping Sheng, one of the elders of the Sea Jizong Sect, usually a reclusive practitioner. His strength among the elders of the Sea Jizong Sect was only considered medium, but it was far superior to those half-step Heavenly Human Realm experts outside.
Among the dozens of half-step Heavenly Human Realm martial artists and demon gods on the plaza, none could match the aura of this Sea King Ping Sheng.
Although aura doesn’t represent a person’s full strength, given Sea King Ping Sheng’s dominant aura, his strength was naturally formidable.
It seemed that this recruitment gathering was to be hosted by Sea King Ping Sheng.
To preside over a recruitment gathering, one must possess the ability to suppress all the martial artists and demon gods present. Sea King Ping Sheng was appointed to host because he had absolute strength.
"This assessment will be presided over by me."
Sea King Ping Sheng descended and sat on the highest throne, scanning the martial artists and demon gods on the plaza.
Under Sea King Ping Sheng’s gaze, Chu Fengmian felt like he was being probed.
Sea King Ping Sheng seemed to have had a fortuitous encounter, for his gaze could see through a person’s strength, trump cards, and past fortuitous encounters, nothing could be hidden from Sea King Ping Sheng’s eyes.
It’s easy to fake an identity, but one’s strength, trump cards, and fortuitous encounters can’t be faked.
The Sea Jizong Sect let Sea King Ping Sheng be in charge of the assessment, with the intention of having him check if there were any infiltrators.
"Hmm? You three?"
Sea King Ping Sheng’s gaze swept across, suddenly locking on three people on the plaza.
As soon as these three were caught in Sea King Ping Sheng’s gaze, their expressions changed drastically. They hurriedly activated their spiritual power, trying to escape the palace.
Within the spiritual power of these three, Chu Fengmian sensed a hint of demonic intent.
"Are they from the Demon Clan?"
Chu Fengmian hadn’t noticed that there were demon clan members mixed among the martial artists and demon gods on the plaza.
The Demon Clan is opposed to all tribes, not just humans, but also the sea tribe, and countless alien races, with a deep-seated blood feud.
This hatred is unending.
Like the Six Paths Demon Sect, they are considered just a Demon Path Sect, but the pure Demon Clan is an enemy to all races.
These three Demon Clan members trying to infiltrate the Sea Jizong Sect must have ulterior motives.
"Attack!"
Sea King Ping Sheng watched the three Demon Lords attempting to flee but didn’t take action himself, he simply gave a low shout.
A Sea Jizong Sect disciple standing nearby suddenly flashed forward, directly rushing toward the three Demon Clansmen. The trident was unsheathed, a flash of sharpness, and the three Demon Clansmen were all simultaneously pierced and slain on the spot.
These three Demon Clan members were also Nine Tribulations Ancient Emperors, matching the realm of the attacking Sea Jizong Sect disciple, but were mercilessly killed in a single move by the Sea Jizong Sect.
The Sea Jizong Sect disciple could slay martial artists and demon gods of the same realm with a single strike.
"A single strike to kill?"
"Is this Cang Lang? It’s said he’s among the best of the Sea Jizong Sect’s seed disciples, but because his realm isn’t sufficient, he can’t ascend to core disciple, yet his strength is on par with core disciples."
"Impressive."
Many martial artists and demon gods on the plaza looked at Cang Lang, overwhelmed with shock.
Even those half-step Heavenly Human Realm martial artists and demon gods were somewhat wary of Cang Lang, as his strength was enough to threaten a half-step Heavenly Human Realm.
"Our Sea Jizong Sect is open for recruitment; people of all races are welcome, but if anyone is a spy or harbors ill intentions, they will face my mercilessness."
Sea King Ping Sheng’s cold shout caused many on the plaza to undergo a subtle change in expression.
Soon, Sea King Ping Sheng identified several more individuals.
These individuals came from a faction within the Canghai Star Domain, Yanghai Sect, which was later destroyed by Sea Jizong Sect. They intended to infiltrate Sea Jizong Sect to cause trouble and seek revenge.
Yet they were directly caught by Sea King Ping Sheng.
Under Cang Lang’s attack, they too were mercilessly slaughtered.
When it was Chu Fengmian’s turn, he had hidden his aura, appearing just like a true ancient emperor of the Dragon Whale Tribe.
After all, Chu Fengmian truly possessed the Dragon Whale Tribe’s bloodline, he only needed to conceal his strength and display the Dragon Whale Tribe’s bloodline.
Sea King Ping Sheng’s probing couldn’t detect Chu Fengmian’s hidden strength. Once he confirmed the Dragon Whale Tribe’s bloodline on Chu Fengmian, he ceased further inspection.
Chu Fengmian easily slipped through the cracks.
It took an hour for Sea King Ping Sheng’s inspection to end, discovering over a hundred people that harbored ill intentions, concealed identities, or were enemies of Sea Jizong Sect trying to infiltrate.
Without exception, Cang Lang mercilessly slaughtered them.
Even a half-step Heavenly Human Realm demon god was slain by Cang Lang in ten moves.
Cang Lang’s strength was a few levels higher than Hai Shisi’s, and although not reaching Hai Changge’s level, it was sufficient to kill a half-step Heavenly Human Realm.
