832: Four Elephants Planning
In the main hall of the Four Symbols Holy Land.
Zhao Tianxiong looked at the agitated Elders of the Holy Land below, his face gloomy, cold light flickering in his eyes.
How could he not want to kill Wang Chen and avenge the deceased Inner Elders of the Holy Land?
In fact, not long ago, he had already dispatched people to take action.
However, only a few days had passed when Wang Chen, deep within the Demon Beast Forest, openly killed Li Qingcang, who held the Dragon Slaying Sword, revealing his powerful combat strength at the Middle Stage of the Ninth-Order.
In the entire Netherworld, the Ninth-Order is called True Lord, already a top existence. The character 'Lord' in True Lord represents the difference from ordinary Cultivators.
There is only one Order difference between the Eighth-Order and the Ninth-Order, but the Eighth-Order can only be called Immortal Master.
This is the gap between the two!
To deal with a Peak Eighth-Order, the Four Symbols Holy Land could easily kill him, without needing to expend much power at all.
But a Ninth-Order True Lord is different, not to mention a True Lord whose combat strength is close to the Middle Stage of the Ninth-Order. In the entire Four Symbols Holy Land, only one person can deal with him.
At this moment.
Although the many Elders below were indignant, in Zhao Tianxiong's opinion, everything they said was nonsense and completely useless.
"Holy Lord, this Wang Chen is powerful. Ordinary forces might not be effective against him and could even be counter-killed. If we want to kill him to comfort the souls of the four deceased Elders, we need to plan carefully."
At this moment, an Inner Elder with a simple appearance, seeing the continuous arguments in the hall, suddenly agitated his demonic power and spoke loudly.
These words resonated with Zhao Tianxiong, and upon hearing them, he was about to nod in agreement.
However, before he could speak, another person suddenly shouted:
"Then please ask the Grand Elder to come out of seclusion. With the Grand Elder's intervention, this Wang Chen will surely be killed with the force of thunder."
Grand Elder, Hua Teng.
In the Four Symbols Holy Land, he was an existence like a myth, guarding the Holy Land for hundreds of years. Many of the Elders present had grown up listening to his legends.
At this moment, when this Elder suggested inviting the Grand Elder to act, many people voiced their agreement, and some who had been silent before also joined in.
"Elder Li is right. The Grand Elder's strength is unfathomable, having long reached the Great True Lord realm. He rarely encounters rivals in the entire Netherworld. With his intervention, this young brat Wang Chen will surely be easily dealt with!"
"I agree with this suggestion. The Grand Elder has been in seclusion for too long. Other Holy Lands and forces outside no longer hold the same reverence for our Four Symbols Holy Land as before. If the Grand Elder can act this time, it will greatly boost our Holy Land's prestige and let everyone know that we are not to be trifled with!"
"It's been a long time since I've seen the Grand Elder act. This incident is a good opportunity to also deter the greedy Xuantian Holy Land. We lost four Inner Elders, and they still dare to come to our door demanding compensation?"
Everyone in the hall was discussing animatedly, and for a moment, it was as bustling as a market.
"Silence!"
Zhao Tianxiong, sitting at the head, felt a headache from listening and couldn't help but shout loudly.
"The Grand Elder is the stabilizing force of our Holy Land. How can he be moved lightly for a mere junior?"
"First, send people to inquire about Wang Chen's information, and then make a decision. This person is like he popped out of a rock crevice; he was never heard of before, and now he suddenly appeared. There must be something strange about it."
"This Holy Lord does not believe there is truly a Genius in the world who can Cultivate to True Lord before the age of thirty. This achievement, which countless Great Emperors throughout history could not accomplish, is even more impossible in this era."
"This person might be put forward by certain forces, and these rumors are merely creating momentum for him!"
Zhao Tianxiong's face was grim, and he spoke coldly.
He really wanted to agree with the Elders' suggestions, but Revered Master Hua Teng would never step out of the Holy Land for such a minor matter.
As the stabilizing force of the Four Symbols Holy Land, Hua Teng's strength was a deterrent, not a power to be used casually.
Moreover, the Elder earlier said that the Grand Elder should act to deter the Xuantian Holy Land.
In Zhao Tianxiong's opinion, it was simply ridiculous!
The Xuantian Holy Land is not without a Great True Lord at the Late Stage of the Ninth-Order!
And their Great True Lord is decades younger than Hua Teng.
After speaking, looking at the silent Elders below, Zhao Tianxiong sighed in his heart.
Today's Sect meeting was chaotic like a market. In the final analysis, it was because the Four Symbols Holy Land's strength had weakened too much compared to a thousand years ago!
Grand Elder, this title in other Holy Lands specifically refers to those True Lord powerhouses who have Broken Through to the Ninth-Order.
However, in the Four Symbols Holy Land, only Revered Master Hua Teng could bear this title.
In the entire Xuantian Holy Land, only Hua Teng, this Great True Lord, and Zhao Tianxiong have reached the Ninth-Order.
Recalling a thousand years ago, the Four Symbols Holy Land had a Tenth-Order Great Emperor presiding over it, with over a hundred Ninth-Order True Lord powerhouses, making it the most powerful force in the Netherworld.
Who would have thought that in just a thousand years, the Four Symbols Holy Land, which once dominated the entire Netherworld, would now be so desolate, only able to maintain its Holy Land status by relying on Hua Teng, and barely sustaining itself with the Holy Land Guardian Array and Guardian Treasure.
Excluding Hua Teng, this Great True Lord at the Late Stage of the Ninth-Order, the Four Symbols Holy Land's other aspects are only comparable to those top-tier forces.
"Gather all information about this Wang Chen, ascertain his origins, and then suppress him with the force of thunder!"
Zhao Tianxiong finally set the tone, then flicked his sleeves and left.
...
...
At the same time.
While the Four Symbols Holy Land became busy because of Wang Chen, the Xuantian Holy Land was also the same.
"Is there any detailed information about this Dragon-Slaying True Lord Wang Chen? And any clues about the force he belongs to?"
Xuantian Holy Lord Zuo Tianming looked at the many Inner Elders below and asked faintly.
"Reporting to the Holy Lord, Dragon-Slaying True Lord Wang Chen appeared in the border area of the Demon Beast Forest a month ago, and was then taken to Qing Shi City by the daughter of the Qing Shi City Lord, where he stayed for one day."
"During this period, he purchased a Dark Tyrant Ape Cub at the Spirit Pet Pavilion in Qing Shi City, and then went to Green Field Town, a major town in the border area of the Demon Beast Forest."
"When this Elder sent people to investigate earlier, I learned that a terrifying battle had erupted outside Qing Shi City, and a Devil Head who Cultivated by consuming human blood was killed. It should have been Dragon-Slaying True Lord Wang Chen who acted."
"After that, Dragon-Slaying True Lord Wang Chen lived a reclusive life in Green Field Town, either wandering around the town or resting during the day, and entering the Demon Beast Forest at night to eradicate those undead gathering places."
"During this period, Dragon-Slaying True Lord Wang Chen maintained a cooperative relationship with the Saint. The specific details are all recorded in the Jade Slip sent back by the Saint."
The Inner Elder of the Xuantian Holy Land in charge of this matter stepped forward and meticulously reported to Zuo Tianming.
