Chapter 687: Chapter 686 Revenge Begins
In the halls of the Dark Palace, Liu Zheng returned to the familiar place, gently sipped a cup of tea, and observed the gathered leaders of the Demon God Army.
"This is Xiang Batian, our new ally."
Liu Zheng introduced Xiang Batian to them.
Xiang Batian had been summoned recently, and not many were aware of his existence.
The members of the Demon God Army all had similar temperaments; their way of greeting was a simple nod of the head.
"How is the situation with the Zhang Family and the Tianmo Sect being handled?"
Previously, Liu Zheng had assigned Chen Jin the task of slaughtering the people of these two families.
"Hall Master, all members of the Zhang Family and the Tianmo Sect outside their familial terrains have been eliminated, only those within their clan lands remain,"
Chen Jin responded.
After a moment of thought, Liu Zheng said, "Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, you five lead five hundred men and directly take down the Tianmo Sect for me."
"The Tianmo Sect has a Quasi-Emperor among them, so be careful. When the time comes, deploy the battle formation, and do not let a single person from the Tianmo Sect escape."
The Tianmo Sect also had a Quasi-Emperor. Although Chen Jin and his men could prevail in a tough fight,
for safety, it was better to use the battle formation to annihilate the entire Tianmo Sect in one fell swoop.
The battle formation of Chen Jin and his men was extremely powerful, five leaders plus five hundred from the Saint Realm.
Even a Quasi-Emperor would have to obediently meet his end.
Unless this Quasi-Emperor reached the seventh level, he might be able to resist.
Below the seventh level of a Quasi-Emperor, there would be no chance to counter.
And the Quasi-Emperor of the Tianmo Sect was only at the second level, so it would still be easy to eradicate him.
"Understood!"
Chen Jin gave a slight nod, then left with several others.
Liu Zheng then turned to Xiang Batian, "Batian, you go to the Zhang Family. Zhang Yuxing and all of the Zhang family must die."
Zhang Yuxing was their target.
As long as Zhang Yuxing was killed, the Imperial Divine Weapon would be theirs.
With the Imperial Divine Weapon’s help, Xiang Batian’s forces could ascend another level.
"And if you see any Fate Carriers, bring them to me."
...
In a paradise filled with immortal qi,
Two figures were sitting in a pavilion, sipping tea.
"Even the supremely complete Tyrant Body has submitted; what exactly is the origin of the Demon God Temple? If the Celestial Realm had not been cut off for so many years, I would suspect that the Demon God Temple originated from the Celestial Realm,"
The Heaven-reaching Elder took a sip of tea and sighed lightly.
The Tyrant Body has always been rebellious, preferring to die in battle rather than submit to anyone.
Yet the Demon God Temple had managed to subdue the Tyrant Body, even willing to become someone else’s Protector.
This made the Heaven-reaching Elder marvel at the power of the Demon God Temple.
If the Celestial Realm had not been isolated for such a long time, he would have thought the Demon God Temple came from down there.
If anyone could make the Tyrant Body submit, it would be someone more powerful and with a more commanding background than he.
Even emperors might not be able to make the Tyrant Body submit.
Emperors were already the pinnacle of the Dao Realm, and Immortals belonged to a different world entirely.
The level of life had been transformed.
"The Celestial Realm has long been a place of legend; whether it even exists is another matter, but the emergence of the Tyrant Body does suggest that the Demon God Temple is from the ancient times,"
"That era is too far away now, so far that we can scarcely trace any information about it."
"Compared to the Tyrant Body, I feel that Liu Zheng’s potential is boundless; the current younger generation practically has no opponents for him."
"I even suspect that Liu Zheng might succeed in his path to ascension."
The Origin Sect Master frowned as he spoke.
Liu Zheng was truly too defiant of the heavens, signifying that there would be another powerful figure emerging in the Demon God Temple in the future.
If a sovereign were to appear in the Demon God Temple, then no one in the Dao Realm would be their match.
Moreover, with the Demon God Temple’s formidable secret techniques, the Origin Sect Master couldn’t help but worry.
"Whether one can become an Immortal is another matter, and it’s still uncertain without reaching the final juncture."
"This era can be said to be the best of times, with geniuses as common as rain, but it’s also the worst of times."
"No one knows what monsters will emerge later on, including those from the olden days; they too will make their appearance."
"While the body of the Overlord is powerful, the old timers in the forbidden grounds are also not weak."
"If one relies on the body of the Overlord to unite the Dao Realm, that would be very difficult."
The Sky-reaching Elder indeed had a different view, and he wasn’t so optimistic about Liu Zheng’s future.
If it had been in one of the earlier eras, or if Liu Zheng could sweep through everything, with the body of the Overlord protecting the path and his innate talents, there would be a great probability he could become an Immortal.
However, this era is different. There are too many monsters in this era, an age of gold.
Many previously unknown monsters will rise to the surface.
"Have you calculated it?"
The Origin Sect Master asked, frowning.
"Of course, although it has cost me some of my lifespan, I can still see some futures. The future will be a golden age, with countless talents emerging one after another. You are powerful, but there will be even more powerful ones arising."
The Sky-reaching Elder let out a light sigh.
Being born in this era is both an honor and a tragedy for these prodigies.
"Then can you see Liu Zheng’s future? Will he be able to make it to the end?"
The Origin Sect Master quickly asked.
"I don’t want to die yet. The people of the Demon God Temple are all monsters, and just one glance would cost me half my life."
"I don’t know whether he can become an Immortal at the end, but it’s possible for him to make it to the final stage."
"Wasn’t the Yuandao Sect’s Wang Zun said to be invincible? Now, he is being overwhelmed by Liu Zheng, indicating that Liu Zheng is even more superior."
Having said this, the Sky-reaching Elder paused and then advised, "Now I have a piece of advice for you, don’t be hostile to the Demon God Temple, or else it’s not just about you, even the Yuanchu Sect could be in danger."
Upon hearing these words, the Origin Sect Master’s eyebrows instantly furrowed.
If the Sky-reaching Elder could say such a thing, he had clearly seen something.
The Yuanchu Sect must be facing an impending crisis.
But as for what the crisis was, even though the Sky-reaching Elder hadn’t said, the Origin Sect Master had somewhat guessed.
It must be related to the Demon God Temple.
"I don’t want to provoke them; this group is simply mad. They are truly dangerous, and when the time comes, the human race will also be in danger."
The Origin Sect Master felt helpless.
At this moment, the Sky-reaching Elder didn’t say much more. He had said what he needed to say, and what the Origin Sect Master did next was his own affair.
...
In the Northern Region, among the myriad mountains,
a majestic palace was situated here, with dark clouds enshrouding the sky, casting an oppressive atmosphere.
This was the location of the Tianmo Sect’s headquarters.
At this moment, Chen Jin and the others slowly emerged from the void near the Tianmo Sect’s gates.
They looked at the entrance with cold eyes.
"This is the Tianmo Sect."
The others followed behind, stepping out without a word.
"Let’s move!"
Chen Jin issued the command without further ado.
In an instant, the people from the Demon God Temple dispersed, encircling the Tianmo Sect from all corners and taking their positions.
"Heaven-Sealing Earth-Locking!"
