Chapter 481: Chapter 296: Settled_Pt 2
The gathering of old demons saw this and had no other choice but to follow suit and enter the fray.
“Demon Head, offer your head!”
This move also solidified the determination of the people on the Righteous Path. Ning Beiming shouted angrily and, together with Zhang Canglan, went out to et Leng Aotian. Ren Baii also led his people to face off against Deng Yunpeng and the other seasoned demons.
The battle was on the verge of breaking out, and the situation imdiately deteriorated.
“Today, I will let you all understand, even within the sa extre realm, there are differences in level, distinctions between strong and weak.”
Although he had taken a hit from the Great Five Elents Divine Light earlier, Leng Aotian was still full of confidence, facing both Ning Beiming and Zhang Canglan, who were of the Earth Calamity Extre Realm, with the intention to break their combined power.
“Boom rumble!”
A group of warriors within the Tribulation Realm began their fierce battle, and even the Temple of War God was affected by the combat, shaking incessantly.
Everyone was entangled in a chaotic battle, but Yun ngyao stayed out of it, closing her eyes and swiftly dissolving her form, turning into a myriad of streaks of light that flew into the sky and headed straight for the outside of the temple.
“Where do you think you’re going, wench!”
“Demon Head, stop this madness!”
Seeing this, an old demon was about to make a move to intercept, but was blocked by Jue Shenni with a horizontal sword.
…
Outside the Temple of War God, in the White Jade Capital.
Xu Yang stood alone, hands behind his back, calmly waiting for the outco.
“Taoist Master!”
Streaks of light flew through the sky, landed in the temple, and transford into a woman in white. Who else could it be but Yun ngyao?
Xu Yang turned around and, seeing her unhard, asked with a light laugh, “How did it go?”
“I did not disappoint the expectations of the Taoist Master!”
Yun ngyao said gravely, “The Supre Elder of rcy Sailing Temple and the seniors of the Righteous Path were willing to accept surrender, but the people of the Demon Path did not allow it. That Leng Aotian even brazenly made a move, and now both sides are battling fiercely within the temple.”
“Hmm!”
Xu Yang nodded, showing no surprise, and simply said, “Well done, you will be credited for this.”
During the conversation, he made no moves to act.
Seeing this, Yun ngyao hesitated slightly, but still voiced her concern, “Taoist Master, that Leng Aotian is extraordinarily strong, seemingly close to overpowering the two from the Righteous Path who are at Earth Calamity Extre Realm. Should we enter the temple to support them?”
“There’s no need for that.”
Xu Yang shook his head and said calmly, “Although the two sides are clashing, there’s no reason for them to fight to the death. The people of the Righteous Path can retreat even if defeated, while the demons of the Demon Sect are unlikely to risk their lives to hold them back. You go and wait outside the temple, and when they withdraw from the Temple of War God, bring them here.”
“Yes!”
Hearing this, Yun ngyao could not persist with her concerns and had to suppress her worry, standing up to leave the temple.
Xu Yang remained alone, calmly surveying the situation.
To not enter the Temple of War God was a deliberate choice.
A century’s ti was not long. Even with innate talents and the foundation of various sects, as well as the law spreading throughout the land, teaching in all quarters, and the dual support of a vast amount of resources and skill characteristics, he had barely managed to elevate his cultivation to the Deity-Transformation Realm.
With a Deity-Transformation status, should he personally risk danger by entering the Temple of War God to fight to the death with a group of Martial Artists in the Tribulation Realm?
Xu Yang’s mind was not so addled.
Even though with his strength, even without relying on the Immortal Spirit ch Armor, he could cross realms to fight, he still did not plan to take the risk.
After all, he now bore the weight of the whole world on his shoulders and was the absolute core, responsible for countless people under his command; he could not act impulsively and put himself in jeopardy.
Of course, the current situation did not require him to take that risk.
From the Righteous Path, his forces were stronger. As powerful as Leng Aotian was, he still could not possibly capture Ning Beiming and Zhang Canglan, both of the Earth Calamity Extre Realm, and even if he could, the cost would not be acceptable to him.
If Leng Aotian already felt this way, the demons of the Demon Sect were even less likely to fight to the death, desperately disregarding their own lives.
In fact, the ongoing battle in the Temple of War God was more about the Righteous Path unwilling to give up, and there was even a desire to make a “pledge of allegiance,” making it more palatable to surrender without losing too much face.
Either way, the difference was not significant for Xu Yang. He simply remained seated, fishing, and awaited the outco.
During this dream entry, returning to the Great Tang, with the help of accumulated lifetis and special traits, his progress was extrely rapid. Within a re three hundred years, he established the Wandao School and once again reached an unbeatable state in the world.
Three hundred years in the dream, but only three years in the real world, there were still several decades left until the seal on the Void Spirit Cave Heaven was broken.
Therefore, he could afford to wait. If he couldn’t seize it this ti, he would wait for the next ti, and the ti after that, or even wear down everyone in the Temple of War God until he could take it without shedding a drop of blood.
The Earth Deity Law, the Longevity Art, was just that capricious!
Of course, this was only the most helpless choice. If possible, he still hoped to take down the Temple of War God as soon as he could, to comprehend the secrets of the Broken Void, and to resolve the predicant of the real world, the Void Spirit Cave Heaven.
…
Thus, half a day later.
The Temple of War God shook with a thunderous rumble, and then streaks of flowing light shot out as a grand array ca to a conclusion.
“Supre Elder, esteed seniors!”
Yun ngyao stepped forward to greet them, her gaze sweeping over the group. She saw that everyone’s clothes were disheveled, their breathing uneven, with so even bearing obvious injuries—it was clear they had gone through a fierce battle. In addition to that, they brought with them several bloody corpses…
“The demon heads have been offered, peace returns to the world!”
Ning Beiming stepped forward, throwing a bloody head to the ground, its eyes wide with anger and resentnt—it was none other than Deng Yunpeng, the Supre Elder of the Red Lotus Sect.
This elder, a peak figure in the Demon Sect who was second only to Leng Aotian, now had nothing left but a head unwilling to close its eyes in death.
The intensity of the battle was evident.
Looking at Deng Yunpeng’s head and the other presented heads of the demon leaders, Yun ngyao smiled lightly and respectfully said, “The seniors have shown great wisdom and righteousness, eliminating demons and defending the Dao, putting down these weapons of war, truly a rit beyond asure. Please accept this junior’s bow!”
“Eliminating demons and defending the Dao is indeed the responsibility of our Righteous Path,” said Ning Beiming, shaking his head with a sigh, “It’s regrettable we couldn’t take down Leng Aotian. He is an extraordinary talent, truly a peerless prodigy of this era, having surpassed us later on. Even at the Earth Calamity Extre Realm, Brother Zhang and I, putting forth all our strength, couldn’t defeat him. In the end, he fled into the Void Stele, which is a great trouble to co.”
“Indeed!”
Hearing this, Boundless Sword Lord, the Zhang Family ancestor Zhang Canglan, also sighed, “His natural talent and brilliance far surpass both and Brother Ning. He even once disguised himself with the Heavenly Demon Great Skill to participate in our Righteous Path’s Divine Martial Celebration, comprehending the Divine Martial True Skill. Now that he has escaped into the Void Stele, he may truly have a chance to achieve Heavenly Tribulation in the future.”
“The Broken Void’s Secret?”
Yun ngyao’s brow furrowed slightly.
As a disciple of the Silent Temple, she was privy to many secrets, including that of the Void Stele.
As the final piece among the Forty-Nine War God Charts, the Broken Void not only helped one integrate the previous forty-eight charts to step into the Heaven and Earth Tribulation Realm, but it also possessed supre might. The grand tribulation of millennium past, massive changes of heaven and earth, and even the invasions of strange demons and the chaos of wild beasts were all triggered by this stele.
Beyond this, the Broken Void also concealed the mysteries of the void. It was said to contain distinctive and unique spaces, akin to small worlds. Anyone who had reached the Earth Calamity Realm and had so understanding of the Broken Void’s Secret could enter these small worlds to more deeply comprehend the mysteries of the stele.
Now, Leng Aotian had escaped into one of these small worlds, hidden within the Void Stele, and it was uncertain when he might make a coback.
This was a significant hidden danger, truly a concern.
But soon Yun ngyao’s frown relaxed.
A hidden danger?
Indeed, a hidden danger!
But such a hazard was nothing in the face of the Wandao School.
The great currents of the world, vast and mighty.
The strength of all living beings, endless and inexhaustible.
No matter how talented Leng Aotian was, he could not catch up with the pace of the Wandao School. His opponent was not an individual, but a system, a civilization, a world. In the face of such a force, the power of one person was indeed too insignificant.
Not to ntion, within the school, there was soone even more talented than him.
What was there to fear?
Yun ngyao smiled in relief and then said to the others, “The Taoist Master has been waiting in the city for a long ti, seniors, please follow !”
“Hmm!”
Everyone nodded and followed her toward the Immortal City.
With that, it seed as if sothing was missing, as if sothing hadn’t been settled.
But no one ntioned it, neither Yun ngyao nor that Zhang Family ancestor, Boundless Sword Lord Zhang Canglan, seed to realize it, tacitly forgetting about that insignificant and unimportant character.
