308: The terrifying black robe defeated the Immortal King in seconds
Chen Tiankuang and Big Yellow Dog carefully observed the black-skinned book floating before them, feeling only an eerie malevolence emanating from it.
Big Yellow Dog transmitted, "Ao Tian, your cultivation is high. Can you discern anything unusual?"
Chen Tiankuang raised an eyebrow, asking, "I say, dog, why have you changed your address again? Are you an idiot?"
"And I'm Tiankuang, not Ao Tian!"
"Is there a difference?"
Big Yellow Dog retorted, and the two almost started arguing again, forgetting the important matter at hand.
The others were all top figures from various continents, and naturally, none of them were fools. After exchanging glances, one of them asked, "This cultivation technique is...?"
But before he could finish, he was interrupted by the Black-robed Man.
The Black-robed Man said calmly, "You don't need to ask about these things. Knowing too much is not good for you, do you understand?"
Upon hearing this, the person who had just spoken fell silent, afraid of angering the other party. After all, the Black-robed Man's origin was very mysterious, and he was most likely not someone under the command of the so-called Duan Tianlie Palace Master.
"Alright, I've called you all here for two reasons: one, to help us with this small task of spreading the cultivation technique; and two, to place a mark on everyone to prevent unnecessary changes."
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire Sea of Silent Death began to churn, black mist rose, and marks condensed out of thin air, corresponding to each person.
"What do you mean by this? We have already agreed to your request. This is a bit too much, isn't it?"
Seeing this situation, everyone became agitated. Even if they were foolish, they could sense that these marks were definitely not a good thing.
Once branded with a mark, they would inevitably be controlled by the other party, and even their thoughts would be hindered.
"Heh heh, do you think you still have a choice?"
"Either submit, or die!"
"This place is not somewhere you can come and go as you please!"
As if to complement his words, a black light suddenly rose from the edge of the Sea of Silent Death, spreading rapidly and quickly forming a large formation.
Everyone's hearts trembled. As expected, the other party had already arranged everything, just waiting for them to walk into the trap.
However, in the end, it was due to everyone's greed, choosing to scheme with a tiger, and being bitten back was only natural.
But not all forces from the three continents were lured. Many were unwilling to participate, content with their own small territories.
After all, if the matter were exposed, the crime of rebellion would be enough for Cang Lanwing to remove their respective forces.
Those who could come here were all ambitious and aspiring, unwilling to stagnate and wanting to advance further.
Yet, a thousand precautions still left one oversight. Although they had anticipated the worst outcome...
They still hadn't expected the other party, even after making an oath, to try and push everyone into a desperate situation, leaving no way out.
Facing this situation, after struggling, many still chose to submit, otherwise, all their previous efforts would be in vain.
Soon, marks shot into some people's bodies, then disappeared, seemingly without too many restrictions.
The Black-robed Man nodded slightly and said indifferently, "No need to worry. My plan is far-reaching, far beyond what you can imagine. If it were merely to deceive you, it wouldn't be worth my great effort."
"As long as you diligently work for me, your lives will be safe."
Following his words, more and more people in the arena chose to join, leaving only a few forces still undecided.
Among them, besides Chen Tiankuang and Big Yellow Dog, there was also the Pavilion Master of Purple Cloud Pavilion. At this moment, even facing this situation, he showed no trace of fear.
His eyes flashed with cold light, immediately letting the two know that he was about to make a move.
He slowly stepped forward, his gaze as sharp as a knife, fixed on the Black-robed Man in the sky, and sneered:
"You rat, although I don't know your origins, if you want to stir up trouble in Palace Master Cang's territory, I cannot let you live!"
He walked step by step towards the sky. With each step he took, his aura also climbed steadily, from Peak Golden Immortal all the way to Half-step Immortal Monarch.
This was not the end; he eventually stepped into the true Immortal Monarch realm, stabilizing at the initial stage.
His incomparably powerful aura swept across the entire Sea of Silent Death, firmly locking onto the black-robed figure standing in the void.
Hiss, hiss, hiss.
Everyone in the arena gasped, completely unaware that an Immortal Monarch-level expert was hidden among them.
Their cultivation levels were almost all at the Peak Golden Immortal stage, with only a few having stepped into Half-step Immortal Monarch.
Why risk cooperating with the other party? It was nothing more than wanting to break through their own shackles and enter a higher realm.
But from the current perspective, their every move seemed to have been under the watchful eye of Canglan Wing Palace Master. It could be said that everything ended before it even began.
Their fate was easily imaginable.
Now, they could only see if the Black-robed Man could forcibly suppress this person; perhaps there was still a glimmer of hope.
"Oh, I knew things weren't as simple as I imagined. They even sent out an Immortal Monarch, and I didn't even notice. I just wonder how that Black-robed Man will deal with it."
"But he looks as steady as an old dog, so he probably already anticipated it."
Chen Tiankuang transmitted to Big Yellow Dog, completely ignoring the other party's murderous eyes.
Pavilion Master of Purple Cloud Pavilion raised an eyebrow, looking at the silent Black-robed Man, and asked in surprise, "You don't seem surprised?"
"Heh heh, Cang Lanwing is a Palace Master after all. I believe he has some tricks up his sleeve, but sending out an Immortal Monarch was indeed beyond my expectation."
"However, for me, it's still not enough!"
The Black-robed Man chuckled, his tone unchanged.
The Black-robed Man extended a pair of pale hands, and with a flicker of his figure, he appeared before the Pavilion Master of Purple Cloud Pavilion, grabbing at his shoulder with lightning speed.
Humph.
The latter snorted coldly, fiercely blasting him back with a palm, then took a step, his fist light unparalleled, illuminating the surrounding sky and making the Sea of Silent Death, which was perpetually in darkness, as bright as day.
Boom.
The two collided several times in an instant, and terrifying aftershocks raged, forcing everyone to retreat repeatedly to avoid being affected.
"Blazing Sun Collapse Fist!"
A fist light, like a magnificent sun, materialized out of thin air, carrying a sky full of flames, and fiercely slammed towards the Black-robed Man in front.
This punch caused surging waves to rise in the Sea of Silent Death, and space shattered, emitting cracking sounds.
Although the Black-robed Man's face was covered by his black robe, making it unclear, everyone could feel his calm demeanor.
He placed a pale palm in front of him, and to everyone's astonishment, he effortlessly blocked the fist print.
The unstoppable fist light, upon contact with the pale palm, rapidly melted away like ice under a scorching sun, vanishing into thin air in just a moment.
What?
A trace of disbelief flashed in the Pavilion Master of Purple Cloud Pavilion's eyes, but at this moment, the pale hand moved again, ignoring the space between them, and directly slammed onto his chest.
Immediately, he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his body flying backward, his face full of incredulity.
The exchange between the two was completed in a flash, so fast that everyone in the arena couldn't react. The Pavilion Master of Purple Cloud Pavilion, who had just been so powerful, was defeated, and very thoroughly.
