207: The Killing Intention of Yipintang (Part 2)

“Cough, cough, I think you might have forgotten something.”

At this moment, a Saintly Being who had remained silent spoke, feeling that these people were being too optimistic.

Or rather, they were underestimating the young Champion named Chu Ying and overestimating the Disciples of Netherworld First Grade Hall.

“Lu Chen possessed a cultivation of Nether Void Realm First Level, and his combat power was already comparable to the Divine Power Realm.”

“Yet even so, Lu Chen was killed by that Chu Ying. Do you all believe that a young man who can kill a Cultivator comparable to the Divine Power Realm can still be dealt with by his peers?”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was stunned, then erupted in an uproar.

“That’s right! I almost forgot this point!”

“This child is only in the Cave Heaven Realm, yet he was able to kill Lu Chen? In other words, he can kill an ordinary Divine Power Realm… Has he really crossed two major Realms?”

“This is a bit too incredible.”

For a moment, the Saintly Beings from the various pulse of the Seven Fiends looked at each other, at a loss.

If that were the case, let alone one Lv Yi, even ten would probably find it difficult to kill that Chu Ying.

“Alas… I’m afraid this person will become a great enemy for Young Master in the future,” someone sighed.

The Eight Heavens Champion possessed terrifying combat power, and more importantly, the methods he wielded were unfathomable.

Firstly, he had the inheritance of Tai Xuan Holy Land, and secondly, he had the inheritance of Great Dream Immortal Mausoleum, which was definitely certain. Finally, he also possessed the Cultivation Techniques inheritance of the Big Dipper lineage.

Unless a Saint Lord Realm figure made a move, it was truly unlikely that many people could kill such a young Champion.

“Are we just going to let this child continue to act so arrogantly? His arrogance is too rampant… I think he’s no less than that Demon Art Inheritor.”

Hearing this, someone’s expression turned strange, and he couldn’t help but ask, “Could this Chu Ying be the Demon Art Inheritor?”

But his question was immediately denied.

“Young Master had long guessed the true identity of the Demon Art Inheritor; it’s definitely not this Chu Ying.” The Saintly Being of the Black Sword lineage shook his head.

“However… perhaps we can change our thinking. To eliminate this person, we may not need to act ourselves.”

“He is indeed not the Demon Art Inheritor, but he can be, can’t he?”

The people present were stunned for a moment, then reacted, all revealing smiles.

“This child Chu Ying is in Holy Sky City, seemingly intending to use himself as bait to lure out the true Demon Art Inheritor. Since that’s the case… we’ll give him a hand.” A Saintly Being from the Rising Sun lineage smiled sinisterly, his expression very cold.

The previous Rising Sun Star Envoy who died was his Disciple, nurtured for many years, yet he was killed just like that. Killing intent was also hidden in his heart.

…

Due to the opening of the Wind and Cloud Auction, Holy Sky City became increasingly vibrant. Not only were Saint Lord Realm figures frequently arriving, but Divine Power Realm mighty figures were also continuously appearing.

Although the latter were not as prominent as the former, auctions emphasized that the wealthy held sway. What Saint Lords needed, they might not need, and similarly, what they needed, Saint Lord Realm figures might not value, so they could still participate in the bidding.

Night soon descended upon Holy Sky City.

At the same restaurant where he had been drinking with Yang Jiuxiao and others during the day, Chu Ying booked a room, intending to stay there for the next few days.

He stayed in his room, cultivating the four ancient scriptures: Celestial Pivot, Jade Balance, Open Yang, and Celestial Balance.

Although his cultivation had not changed, as long as he didn't Cultivate the Soul Palace Secret Realm, he could remain in the Cave Heaven Realm. However, the Foundation and essence of his Cave Heaven would still strengthen.

In other words, his strength would still increase, but compared to normal cultivation Breakthroughs, the increase in strength would be much slower.

“Why do I always have a bad premonition? Although it’s not a sign of crisis, it feels like I’m being plotted against?”

Chu Ying frowned. He cultivated the Nine Calamities Scripture, and as his cultivation strengthened, his perception of “Nine Calamities” was very sensitive.

Could it be that the Demon Art Inheritor is really coming for him?

Chu Ying opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashing within them.

Immediately after, he rose and left the room, disappearing from the inn in a blink of an eye, blending into the vast Holy Sky City.

Even at night, Holy Sky City remained brightly lit and bustling. The Wind and Cloud Auction had been prepared for a long time, and there were many auction items. The most important items were auctioned off each night.

Chu Ying did not intend to go to the auction house; he was going outside Holy Sky City.

However, Chu Ying did not know that someone in Holy Sky City was secretly tracking him, and he hadn't even noticed.

“Target confirmed… it is indeed the person Young Master Li mentioned—Chu Ying.”

At a certain moving spatial weak point, there seemed to be an invisible teleportation platform here.

A mysterious organization entered and exited Holy Sky City from this very spot.

“Since it’s Young Master Chu, then there’s no mistake… Perhaps we’ll soon be calling him Young Master.”

In the dark night, black-clad figures, merged with the darkness, conversed.

“Eh… there are even others hiding in the dark like us. Are they going to… kill someone?”

Suddenly, these people were stunned. They discovered that someone had actually killed a successor of an Ancient Sect from the Central Region within Holy Sky City!

What happened next left them even more dumbfounded.

Because those who had secretly acted, after the killing, even created the tragic scene of the Ancient Sect successor being completely devoured of his Origin, and also left behind some traces, seemingly to deliberately make people discover them.

And after completing a wave of actions, these hidden Cultivators quickly left, as if rushing to their next target.

When these people left, the mysterious night figures who witnessed the situation appeared near the crime scene.

“I understand. These people want to create a scene of the Demon Art Inheritor making a move. They’re trying to frame someone.”

“They’re probably from Netherworld First Grade Hall. Although they didn’t leave any flaws, I recognized them as soon as they made a move.”

“Heh, Netherworld First Grade Hall, when did these guys start playing such insidious tricks?”

The mysterious Cultivators in black clothes had strange expressions, tinged with sarcasm. They had ties to Netherworld First Grade Hall, but they were at odds, being two different factions.

“We can pay attention and see who this Netherworld First Grade Hall intends to frame.”

…

Chu Ying’s room in the restaurant inn was empty.

But at some unknown time, a figure quietly appeared, left some traces in the room, and then quietly disappeared again.

And this time, no one observed it, not even those mysterious night figures.

Chu Ying, who had already left Holy Sky City at this time, did not know that he had been secretly framed by Netherworld First Grade Hall as the Demon Art Inheritor.

He planned to find a secluded place to undergo a tribulation and enhance his Dharma Idol.

He had only taken one Demon Appearance Pill left by Li Feiyu, and that was back at Tongtian River.

Now it was time to improve his strength. The transformation of a transcendent Dharma Idol into a forbidden Dharma Idol would greatly enhance Chu Ying’s overall strength and should not be underestimated.

The Central Region was still covered in silver, and finding a secluded place was truly difficult. Once Chu Ying’s transcendent Dharma Idol transformed into a forbidden one, it would attract Heavenly Tribulation lightning, and he didn't want to attract attention.

Naturally, he needed to find a place far from Holy Sky City, preferably uninhabited.
