Chapter 452: Even if the Saint Lord Descends, He Can’t Save You!
“Dong Dong Dong…”
Just as Qiong Rong fell, a sound like that of a great bell suddenly rang out within the vast Holy Institute.
“What’s happening!”
Some confused disciples of the Holy Institute lifted their heads, trying to look in the direction from which the bell tolled, but they could see nothing.
“It’s the Holy Bell!”
“The Holy Bell with Nine Sounds!”
“A Supreme Elder from the Life Death Realm has fallen!”
The faces of some old-timers within the Holy Institute instantly turned pale, as they knew the fall of a strong cultivator from the Life Death Realm was no trivial matter.
There were only a few dozen cultivators in the Life Death Realm for the entire Blue Star Human Clan. The fall of any one of them was a major event, and even more so when it was a Supreme Elder from the Holy Institute.
In an instant, countless figures emerged from all corners of the Holy Institute and surged into the sky, their awe-inspiring presence spreading out, causing the entire Holy Institute to tremble.
“Who has died?”
Yang Wudi bellowed furiously; even several hundred years ago, when the Human Race and Demon Clan were at a standoff, no strong cultivator in the Life Death Realm had ever fallen.
At that time, those in the Life Death Realm could be considered the ace up the sleeve of the Human Race.
Now, although those in the Life Death Realm could no longer be considered the Human Race’s ace, they still were the backbone of their power. The loss of any one of them was a catastrophic event.
“Supreme Yang, it was Elder Qiong!”
Just then, an Elder from the Holy Institute who had just come out of the Soul Lamp Hall communicated with Yang Wudi, summarizing the events that had taken place.
When Yang Wudi learned that the Holy Institute had lost a Deputy Headmaster and then a Supreme Elder from the Life Death Realm, his face went dark.
Not only that, but other strong cultivators from the Holy Institute also exuded a thick killing intent upon receiving the news.
Feeling this overwhelming killing intent, a divine light flashed in Yang Wudi’s eyes, then with a step, he vanished from the spot.
“Swoosh!”
The next second, Yang Wudi appeared in a strange starry sky that resembled a gigantic meteor belt, with endless fragments of stars mysteriously rotating, and an alarming force emanating from the center of the meteor belt in waves.
Yang Wudi walked among these myriad fragments of stars, each piece powerful enough to blast through the body of a strong cultivator in the Life Death Realm. However, as he passed, the fragments deliberately avoided him.
“How did you get here?”
Suddenly, a voice rang in Yang Wudi’s ear.
“Master, something has happened at the Holy Institute. Qiong Rong is dead.”
In a flash, a figure appeared in front of Yang Wudi, it was none other than Jiu Xiao, the little old man who had had several encounters with Ye Feng.
At this moment, infinite Tao resonated within Jiu Xiao, and his body emitted a presence like that of the Six Reincarnations.
The Reincarnation Realm!
After a few hundred years, Jiu Xiao had become a powerhouse in the Reincarnation Realm, one of the five strongest in the Blue Star Human Clan.
Upon hearing Yang Wudi’s words, Jiu Xiao furrowed his brow. He knew Qiong Rong, who was closely associated with Zhou Feng’s faction and was a newly advanced strong cultivator in the Life Death Realm.
These newly advanced strong cultivators had one thing in common: their interests were closely tied to Zhou Feng.
Over the years, Zhou Feng’s prestige had grown significantly within the Blue Star, thanks to the deliberate efforts of these people.
Although Dao Chen had once said to roll out the red carpet for Zhou Feng within the Holy Institute, in fact, Zhou Feng had indeed lived up to expectations, in his view, no less remarkable than Ye Feng in his day.
However, this fellow seemed to have a problem with Ye Feng ever since he rose in power, and even though Ye Feng had been away from Earth for a long time, he still targeted Ye Feng’s influence in various ways.
A Reincarnation Realm Powerhouse like Jiu Xiao didn’t take these matters to heart, not even showing his face when Zhou Feng left Earth, instead it was another Reincarnation Realm Expert who highly regarded Zhou Feng that stepped forward.
As for the two Supremes, aside from Dao Chen, another with his origins in the Central Star Domain was on good terms with Zhou Feng. It was said that the kid was doing quite well deep within the Starry Sky of the Central Star Domain, having already attained the status of Supreme.
If the people under his command died, and that kid found out, the trouble would never end.
No matter the reasons, he had to make an appearance now.
“Let’s go~ I do want to see who exactly has the audacity to bring down Qiong Rong!”
Jiu Xiao immediately took Yang Wudi with him in the blink of an eye, returning to the Holy Institute.
On seeing Jiu Xiao appear suddenly, the assembled powerhouses of the Holy Institute were first shocked, then their faces lit up with wild joy.
“It’s Lord Jiu Xiao, now we can feel confident!”
“Yes, we must make those responsible pay with their blood.”
Jiu Xiao didn’t even look at these powerhouses but directly crossed the sky, heading towards Jiang City; soon a group of the Holy Institute’s strongmen followed suit.
This time, not only were there six Life and Death Realm cultivators present, but also numerous experts of the Primordial Realm and Heaven-breaking Realm.
Those below the Heaven-breaking Realm simply weren’t qualified to participate.
As two different scenes unfolded, the atmosphere in another part of Jiang City became eerily strange.
All of Jiang City’s strongmen held their breath in disbelief over what had happened before their eyes.
Eleven strong cultivators of the Life and Death Realm joined forces, yet the other party blocked them without even reacting, and not a speck of dust was found on their clothes; such an outrageous scene unfolding before them left them incredibly shocked.
It wasn’t just them; the remaining Life and Death Realm experts from the Holy Institute felt an unprecedented level of shock, with everyone dumbfounded for a moment.
By the time the elderly man with an aged face came back to his senses, it felt as though a century had passed.
He took a deep breath; although filled with a murderous intent, his entire being was tense as if facing a formidable enemy.
The other Life and Death Realm experts by his side were in a similar state.
“To kill a Supreme Elder and Deputy headmaster of our Holy Institute, not even if the Saint Lord Ye Feng himself descends can you be saved!”
A chilling murderous light flashed in the middle-aged beauty’s eyes. Although Ye Feng’s slap was on Qiong Rong’s face, it was no different from a slap on their own faces.
This slap was not just against Qiong Rong, but against the entire Holy Institute!
However, Qiong Rong’s fall must have already been known to the Holy Institute by now, so it was time to show this fellow what true terror was.
But before that, they needed to stall him to prevent his escape.
At the same time, high above Jiang City in multiple layers of space, five figures stood looking down upon the crowd below, specifically at Ye Feng.
“This guy, he truly is terrifying!”
The speaker was a bald man with a fierce presence, one glance at his half-mechanical body would instill fear in anyone.
“To say he would slay the Holy Institute’s Life and Death Realm Supreme Elder, he must have the strength of someone in the Reincarnation Realm!”
“Fortunately, the God Lord had the foresight to leave us a contingency plan.”
“Otherwise, with our strength, we’d stand no chance against him!”
Another person spoke, a young girl; however, behind her seemed to stand a mechanical puppet which eerily controlled her body.
