228: The line where the seven imperial passes meet

There are so many forces, both large and small, present here!

If the Lord of Blissful Demons hasn't lost his mind, he shouldn't be throwing a tantrum in public!

So what if they are a group of crazy demonic Cultivators?

The dignified Academy is naturally not afraid of this so-called Righteous Qi Sect, and there are so many like-minded people here.

It must be an illusion!

That's right!

The Teacher kept cheering himself on in his heart, looking at the Lord of Blissful Demons without the slightest intention of retreating; he absolutely could not lose his Aura, otherwise, in front of so many people, wouldn't he be bringing shame to the Academy?

The Lord of Blissful Demons smiled and walked up to the Academy's Teacher; the next second—

Boom!!!

A deafening roar resounded in everyone's ears.

A mist of blood danced through the air; those standing close by, caught off guard, were splattered across their faces and bodies, their eyes widening in shock.

Their expressions were filled with disbelief.

What had they just seen?!

That Academy Teacher had been blasted into a mist of blood by a single strike from the Lord of Blissful Demons?!

Is this really the same Lord of Blissful Demons who had recently been known for his composed style of conduct?

How could he have become like this?!

Or rather, how dare he! There are so many forces present on this side! And he just attacked them directly?!

Only the Ancestors of the Righteous Qi Sect wore expressions of admiration.

"Hahahaha! This kid actually did it!"

"I told you, ever since Lin Ye arrived at our Righteous Qi Sect, the Aura of the entire Sect has been lifted!"

"After he became the Lord of Blissful Demons, he burdened himself with a heavy mountain, which caused his cultivation to stagnate, but now, he is finally letting loose."

"Come to think of it, was this kid imitating that smile of Lin Ye's earlier? Hahahaha!"

"..."

The Ancestors' unbridled laughter brought everyone back to their senses.

The people from the Academy roared at the Lord of Blissful Demons, "Lord of Blissful Demons, what exactly do you mean?! How dare you be so presumptuous! Right in front of us, you actually killed our Teacher!!!"

"Hehe..."

Faced with the accusations from the Academy, the Lord of Blissful Demons gave a cold laugh, "An explanation? Who the hell am I supposed to give an explanation to? He wants me to give him an explanation???"

"Killing him was already the best punishment for him! Otherwise, I would have peeled off his skin and used his fat to light a lamp!"

"I am the Lord of Blissful Demons! Who gave you the courage to come and question me?!"

Boom!!!

A powerful Aura erupted from the Lord of Blissful Demons. In an instant, the world darkened, as if some great terror had been born.

"You!!!"

The people from the Academy seemed not to have expected the Lord of Blissful Demons to be so overbearing, and that his very first strike would be earth-shattering.

Ancestor Li laughed aloud from the side, "Hahahaha, satisfying, truly satisfying! Well said, who the hell are we supposed to give an explanation to? In a moment, I'll slaughter all of you! Questioning us? Go ask the dead underground!"

Wu Mingyue and the others from the Immortal Dynasty watched this scene, dumbfounded.

What is the Righteous Qi Sect trying to do?!

Do they want to make an enemy of the entire world?

They've gone mad!

Not only was the Lord of Blissful Demons being so overbearing, but even the Ancestors of the Righteous Qi Sect had stood up and declared they would slaughter everyone here. If they truly did so, the entire Lower Domain would likely suffer unimaginable turmoil.

Seeing the Righteous Qi Sect being so overbearing and domineering, some people from smaller forces began to gradually retreat.

Just kidding, they were here to join in the questioning, not to throw their lives away.

They didn't know if these people from the Righteous Qi Sect dared to slaughter everyone here, but they knew that in a moment, they would definitely dare to use them as the first targets!

Compared to an Opportunity, their lives were more important!

Watching the people from the smaller forces retreat, the surrounding crowd was angry but couldn't say anything; even ants cling to life, let alone Cultivators.

"What's the matter?"

The Lord of Blissful Demons asked in confusion, "Weren't you all very arrogant just now? You wanted me to give an explanation? Come on then, those who want an explanation, step forward! Let me see who's left!"

Hearing this, the crowd of Cultivators all remained silent, even the people from the Academy.

No one wanted to be the one to take the lead.

Seeing this, a mocking smile appeared on the face of the Lord of Blissful Demons.

Strike once to avoid a hundred strikes—he had understood this principle from the beginning, but after becoming the Saint, his spirit had gradually been worn down.

He had only temporarily ceased fire, not extinguished the furnace.

After being guided by Ancestor Li, he had finally woken up.

Their own Saint and that Sequence One Disciple—one had provoked an Eternal Family, and the other had provoked a Forbidden Zone.

As the ruler and Lord of Blissful Demons, if he didn't stir up some trouble, he would be doing a disservice to his own status!

That's right!

From now on, he would start by targeting the Southern Domain!

Any force from the Southern Domain that dared to act arrogant would get a slap to the face; let's see you be arrogant then!

...

Inside the Lingxu Battlefield.

Lin Ye naturally did not know that the Lord of Blissful Demons outside had begun to erupt because of his actions.

He led many Disciples of the Righteous Qi Sect and walked up the stairs before them.

They didn't know how many levels the ancient tower had.

But they had already passed three levels and arrived at the fourth.

This fourth level was different from the second and third levels; instead, it was like the first level, a large hall. There were no terrifying giant beasts here, nor was there an environment that could easily kill someone.

What could be seen were seven entrances, theirs counting as one.

The other entrances seemed to be shrouded in a layer of transparent array patterns.

And at this moment, there were many Cultivators in the hall that he had never seen before.

"Brother Lin!!!"

Just then, a familiar voice rang out.

Lin Ye turned his head, and sure enough, Chu Hao was rushing toward him with an excited expression.

Because he had called out "Brother Lin" and showed no hostility, the Disciples of the Righteous Qi Sect did not stop him.

Chu Hao quickly reached Lin Ye and said excitedly, "I didn't expect to run into you again, Brother Lin! Didn't I tell you to come find me!"

Seeing Chu Hao appear, Lin Ye asked with some confusion, "Didn't you go to another Emperor Pass? How did you end up here?"

Hearing this, Chu Hao scratched his head and smiled foolishly, "I don't know what's going on either. Not long after I arrived here, I ran into many acquaintances; they are all people from the other Emperor Passes."

"I suppose this ancient tower must connect all Seven Emperor Passes."

Hearing Chu Hao's words, Lin Ye's pupils constricted.

Within the ancient tower, there was a line where the Seven Emperor Passes converged?

The Cultivators who had just arrived in the hall had clearly realized this as well, and they were all stunned.

The Cultivators from all Seven Emperor Passes had gathered together?

Wouldn't that mean there would be even more people fighting for the Opportunity on the next level?!

After all, the more people competing for an Opportunity, the lower the chances of obtaining it.

This was nothing short of a nightmare!

But for Lin Ye, this was good news!

A hint of madness appeared in his eyes.

Lin Ming!!!
