154: The Holy Eye is exposed, Deng Changyun takes action

Outside the Secret Realm.

Swish swish swish~!

Numerous figures appeared, Martial Artists who had emerged from that Secret Realm.

"I didn't expect such a thing to happen during this exploration. It's really unlucky."

"Isn't it? I made so many preparations for the burial of the Ancient Pan Divine Emperor, but I didn't even get my capital back."

"Shh! Let's go quickly!"

Boom~!

But just as they were about to leave, an infinitely terrifying pressure descended. Some Imperial Dao powerhouses who had already fled tens of thousands of miles instantly turned into a bloody mist in the Void Realm.

This scene made countless people's faces turn pale and their hearts tremble.

"Who dares to kill my Zhengyang Ancient Sect's Disciple? Step forward!"

An aged heavenly voice resounded throughout the entire world, and a grey-robed old man appeared in the Void Realm with a face full of rage.

He was Luo Yang's Dao Protector, a Peak Half-Saint. Because there was a barrier set up by the Ancient Pan Divine Emperor within the Secret Realm, those above Divine Emperor Perfection were forbidden from entering, so he couldn't force his way in.

Coupled with Luo Yang's combat power, which was enough to kill an ordinary Divine Emperor Perfection, and the various methods bestowed by the Vice Sect Master, as well as his identity as a Personal Disciple of the Zhengyang Ancient Sect, even Disciples from other Holy Sects wouldn't easily offend him.

Yet, even with these multiple layers of protection, Luo Yang died. The moment he perceived it, he felt as if the sky had fallen.

As a Dao Protector, if the person he was protecting died, he couldn't escape responsibility.

Moreover, others didn't know, but he knew that Luo Yang was the Vice Sect Master's illegitimate son.

Now that the other party was dead, he was also destined not to live.

What he had to do now was to bring the murderer back to beg for forgiveness before the Sect sent out powerhouses. He no longer hoped to be spared death, but being able to leave a glimmer of hope for his descendants was enough.

A Disciple of the Zhengyang Ancient Sect died?

Many Zhengyuan Holy Domain powerhouses hidden around couldn't help but be startled.

The weakest among them were top-tier Divine Emperors, and the powerful ones had even reached the level of veteran Half-Saints. These people all came from various forces in the Zhengyuan Holy Domain, and their purpose for this trip was to bring their Sect's Disciples to obtain the Legacy of the Ancient Pan Divine Emperor.

Who would have thought that someone would dare to kill a Disciple of the Zhengyang Ancient Sect.

The powerhouses couldn't help but look towards the eight great Saint Families led by the Zhengyuan Holy Palace. If anyone could kill a Disciple of the Zhengyang Ancient Sect, it could only be the few great Saint Families.

The grey-robed old man's gaze also locked onto the Zhengyuan Holy Palace. If they were the ones who did it, then it would be somewhat troublesome, as he was merely a Half-Saint whose Dao path had been cut off.

And the eight great Saint Families also became nervous. They recalled all the Disciples who had come on this trip and indeed thought of a few powerful hotheads, and couldn't help but pray secretly.

On the other side, the Martial Artists who had just emerged from the Secret Realm were all terrified. At this moment, it was too late for them to escape, as several Imperial Dao powerhouses, including several Divine Emperors, had just exploded into a bloody mist.

"Reporting to Your Excellency, the one who attacked is a strange-eyed person, and is still within the Ancient Pan Secret Realm!"

Immediately, someone spoke to the grey-robed old man.

A Fellow Daoist dies, but not me. Who would die for someone with no relatives or connections?

"That's right, we saw it with our own eyes. I even have a recording stone here!"

"I have one here too!"

With the first person speaking, soon there was a second, a third...

"Strange-eyed person?"

The grey-robed old man's expression changed slightly. He instantly appeared beside the man who took out the recording stone, snatched it, and began to examine it.

"This... This is a Sacred Eye!"

A shocked voice rang out. The person who spoke was the Sheng Family's powerhouse, a veteran Half-Saint.

Whoosh!

"Sacred Eye!!!"

These words immediately stirred up a huge commotion, astonishing all the Martial Artists present.

The appearance of the Sacred Eye was like a thunderclap exploding in everyone's hearts. Everyone's faces were filled with shock and disbelief.

The grey-robed old man's eyes widened, and the recording stone in his hand seemed to become incredibly heavy. His lips trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but was too shocked to speak.

The Sheng Family's powerhouse, that veteran Half-Saint, was completely distraught at this moment. His body trembled slightly, and his expression held both surprise and disbelief.

The other Martial Artists were even more stunned, their mouths agape, their eyes filled with astonishment and envy.

They looked at the recording stone as if they were seeing a legendary existence, an existence beyond their imagination.

"How many years has it been? Our Nanming Divine Continent once again has a Sacred Eye Owner!"

The Sheng Family Half-Saint was exceptionally excited.

The reason they could recognize the Sacred Eye was because the first generation Sacred Eye Owner came from the Nanming Divine Continent. It is said that he once reached the end of the Imperial Dao.

Afterward, eight Sacred Eye Owners appeared successively in the Nanming Divine Continent. The first seven all achieved the Great Emperor realm, but after ruling an era, they mysteriously disappeared.

And the eighth Sacred Eye Owner, in the Middle Ancient Era, unfortunately suffered a sneak attack from the Demon Race and ultimately died with regret.

Now, after dozens of eras, the ninth Sacred Eye Owner has reappeared. How could they not be shocked?

This person must die!

The grey-robed old man was terrified in his heart.

Not only because of the Sacred Eye's terrifying talent, but also because behind the Sacred Eye, there would be an extremely powerful ancient force involved.

Thinking of this, he immediately took out a communication Jade Slip, preparing to send a message.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, the communication Jade Slip shattered.

"Who?"

The grey-robed old man roared in anger and surprise. The terrifying power of a Half-Saint was released, and the Martial Artists close to him instantly exploded.

The other Martial Artists fled in terror into the distance.

"Old fellow, who do you want to contact?"

An indifferent voice came.

Boom!

In an instant, an extremely terrifying pressure descended from above the sky, carrying a dreadful killing intent, and crashed down towards the grey-robed old man.

"Courting death!"

Seeing this, the grey-robed old man was furious. He raised his hand and unleashed rolling Divine Power towards the killing intent.

Bang!

The two collided, and terrifying energy swept out. The Half-Saints led by the Sheng Family, seeing this, had no choice but to work together to block the violent energy.

After the energy dissipated, the grey-robed old man looked somewhat disheveled. He stared in anger and surprise at a certain place in the distance.

A monstrous aura was seen approaching from afar. It soon arrived before everyone, and a figure enveloped in blue divine light slowly emerged.

What a powerful aura!

This aura was clearly that of a Peak Half-Saint, yet it was stronger than the Peak Half-Saints in their Family?

Many Half-Saints felt this aura and were all shaken.

"Who is Your Excellency? Why did you attack this old man?"

Feeling the aura on the mysterious figure, the grey-robed old man's face was filled with anger and surprise, along with a hint of apprehension that outsiders couldn't detect.

"Hmph!"

"Who gave you the guts to try and attack my Young Master?"

Deng Changyun asked coldly.

"Your Young Master?"

Upon hearing this, the grey-robed old man's eyes immediately turned unfriendly.

"Good, good, good! So you are all in this together. You killed my Sect's Disciple, so I'll collect the interest from you first!"

"A battle in the sky!"

The grey-robed old man roared, then charged into the sky!

"Afraid of you?"

"Those who offend my Xu Family's Heavenly Might, kill!"

Deng Changyun's gaze turned cold, his voice imbued with the power of Law, like the sound of Nine Heavens thunder, resounding across thousands of miles.

Seeing Deng Changyun follow, the grey-robed old man didn't waste any more words. He raised his hand, and a crimson great saber appeared. Rolling fiery red Divine Power surged into the great saber, and he instantly slashed out.

The saber slash instantly transformed into a terrifying crimson giant saber, tearing through hundreds of thousands of miles of Void Realm space in an instant, sweeping towards Deng Changyun, determined to kill him to vent the rage in his heart.

Deng Changyun was not an easy person to deal with either. The Water Law between heaven and earth condensed, forming a blue Dragon that roared as it pounced towards the crimson giant saber.

The Martial Artists present, seeing such power, once again rushed further away, fearing being caught in the aftermath.

This was no joke; many unlucky people in the Martial Dao Realm died in the aftermath of powerful battles while watching the show.

Above the sky, the sound of Divine Power exploding resounded, instantly shaking the heavens and earth. For millions of miles, blue and fiery red each occupied half of the sky.

Meanwhile, within the Secret Realm, Xu Yuan was completely unaware of the outside world, instead undergoing some powerful Legacy.
