170: Xuanmo received a message: Shangguan Jing is gone?
At this moment, its condition was miserable to the extreme.
On that demonic body, originally as majestic as a mountain, were deep, bone-visible sword marks. Burnt flesh curled, and golden blood spilled from the air as if it were worthless, transforming into droplets of spiritual rain.
Its aura had withered to a freezing point.
However, worse than the physical wounds was the excruciating pain from the depths of its Divine Soul!
Just a moment ago, that master-servant contract, connected to its Bloodline and life, that mark branded in the deepest part of its Divine Soul...
Shattered!
With a "bang," it was as if something had completely exploded within its world of the Soul!
Master...
Had fallen!
"Moo—!!!"
The eyes of the Five Elements Bull Demon instantly turned blood-red. In those scarlet eyes, it was impossible to distinguish whether it was blood or tears flowing down!
Endless grief and fury became the only driving force supporting it to keep moving forward!
Go back!
Must go back!
Must inform the Sect of the heaven-shaking changes in Three Seas City, the conspiracy of that beast Jia Wenmo, and the deep blood feud of the Master!!!
It burned its own Origin vital blood, recklessly driving its final strength, transforming into a stream of light interwoven with blood color and five colors, and charged fiercely towards the direction of the Beast Taming Sect!
...
Beast Taming Sect.
Inside the mountain gate, everything was peaceful.
On the spiritual peaks, cranes sang in unison, and by the spiritual springs, elk drank water.
However, in the very next moment!
Rumble!
The entire Mountain Protecting Grand Array suddenly trembled violently, emitting a groan that it could barely withstand!
A massive figure, burning with fierce flames, actually ignored the Sect Restriction and forcibly crashed in!
"Enemy attack!!!"
"Not good! Which Demon King is invading?!"
"Quick! Activate the highest-level defensive array!"
In an instant, the entire Beast Taming Sect was alarmed!
Countless streams of light shot up from the major spiritual peaks, and one after another, powerful Divine Senses instantly locked onto the intruder!
However, when they saw the figure clearly, everyone was stunned.
"That... that is..."
"Five Elements Bull Demon?! It is the Sect Master's life-bound Spirit Beast!"
"Heavens! How could Lord Bull Demon be injured like this?!"
As the massive Five Elements Bull Demon crashed into the mountain gate, it could no longer support itself, its huge body slamming heavily onto the Sect plaza like a collapsing mountain!
"Boom—!!!"
The earth cracked, and dust filled the air!
"Quick! Go report to Acting Sect Master Chiyun!"
"Lord Bull Demon! What happened? Where is the Sect Master?"
A group of Elders and Disciples gathered around anxiously, but were forced to retreat repeatedly by the aura of sorrow and brutality emanating from the Five Elements Bull Demon.
"Chi... yun..."
The Five Elements Bull Demon's giant bovine head lifted with difficulty, its blood-red eyes staring fixedly at the direction of the Sect Masters Great Hall, using its last ounce of strength to let out a roar containing the power of the Divine Soul:
"—Roll out and see me!!!"
...
Inside the Sect Masters Great Hall.
A middle-aged Daoist wearing red cloud-patterned Daoist robes, with a firm face and a naturally imposing manner, was frowning as he handled Sect affairs.
It was the Beast Taming Sect's current Acting Sect Master, a Late Nascent Soul Stage great Cultivator, True Lord Chi Yun!
The moment the Five Elements Bull Demon broke into the mountain gate, he had already sensed danger!
And when that roar of grief and indignation rang through the Great Hall, the Jade Slip in his hand was crushed into powder by him with a "snap"!
"Not good!"
True Lord Chi Yun's expression changed drastically, his figure flickering and instantly disappearing from where he stood.
The next moment, he had already appeared on the Sect plaza, in front of the Five Elements Bull Demon's massive and broken body.
"Brother Bull Demon!"
Looking at the Five Elements Bull Demon's incredibly miserable appearance, True Lord Chi Yun's heart sank to the bottom!
The Five Elements Bull Demon was the Sect Master's life-bound Spirit Beast, sharing glory and loss with the Sect Master!
If it was injured like this, then the Sect Master...
"Sect Master, he..."
True Lord Chi Yun's voice was trembling slightly.
The Five Elements Bull Demon's blood-red eyes stared fixedly at him without speaking, but a massive and chaotic stream of Divine Thought information rushed into True Lord Chi Yun's Sea of Consciousness like a bursting flood!
Three Seas City!
Spirit-Locking Law-Breaking Powder!
Jia Wenmo's betrayal!
Black Dragon! Yin Spirit Clan!
True Lord Jian Chen! Mortal World Sword! Nascent Soul self-detonation!
Sect Master Shangguan Jing! Five Elements Nascent Soul! Mutually destroyed!
And that last one...
The one who made time and space stand still with a flick of a finger, and easily wiped out the Sect Master's Nascent Soul...
The Gray-robed Elder!!!
Boom—!!!
The massive stream of information exploded crazily in True Lord Chi Yun's mind like billions of thunderbolts!
His body swayed violently, and his face turned as pale as paper in a "whoosh"!
"Im... impossible..."
He retreated two steps in a daze, his eyes filled with unbelievable horror!
"Puff!"
A mouthful of heart blood could no longer be suppressed and sprayed out violently!
"Sect Master!!!"
True Lord Chi Yun let out a roar of extreme grief and indignation towards the sky, and a violently turbulent magic power fluctuation swept out with him as the center!
The pressure of the Late Nascent Soul Stage caused the surrounding air to solidify. All Disciples and Elders on the entire Sect plaza were unable to breathe under this pressure of grief and indignation!
Dead...
All dead!
The pillar supporting the Beast Taming Sect had just... collapsed?
"Jia Wenmo!!!"
"Three Seas City!!!"
True Lord Chi Yun's eyes were blood-red, and that monstrous killing intent was almost about to materialize, piercing through the heavens!
He turned abruptly and let out a thunderous roar at the group of Elders behind him who were already too terrified to speak!
"Pass my order!"
"Summon all Elders at the Golden Core Stage and above to the Sect Masters Great Hall for an emergency meeting!"
"—Those who disobey the order will be executed!!!"
...
Green Bamboo Peak, Ye Feiyan's Immortal Cave Small Courtyard.
In the Small Courtyard, Spiritual Qi was dense, and a scene of tranquility prevailed.
A turtle that was pitch black all over, with mysterious golden patterns branded on its back, was lazily lying on the blue stone by the pond, enjoying the afternoon sun.
It was Mysterious Ink.
Just at this moment.
A fiery red stream of light seemed to tear through space and instantly appeared above the Small Courtyard.
It was a Communication Jade Talisman.
Mysterious Ink's small eyes glanced at it lazily, not intending to pay attention.
But the next moment, it seemed to feel the urgent, almost burning aura on the Jade Talisman, and the golden patterns on its dragon claws lit up slightly.
The Jade Talisman was drawn by an invisible force and landed slowly in front of it.
Divine Thought probed in.
The next second.
Mysterious Ink's eternally lazy expression froze instantly.
"Hmm?"
Its dragon head lifted abruptly, and a trace of extremely human-like astonishment flashed in its small eyes!
Shangguan Jing... died?
Was killed by the Three Seas City Lord Jia Wenmo, in league with a Soul Transformation Black Dragon of the Yin Spirit Clan?
Even that old man who used a sword from Myriad Spirits Manor named Sword Dust was dragged into it?
And in the end, a mysterious Gray-robed Elder appeared, exploding Shangguan Jing's Nascent Soul with a flick of a finger?
