213: Block the Primordial Gate
The high-level members of the Taichu Sect were once again driven into a state of madness. They never expected that the person would dare to attack again, destroying another quarter of the building complex and costing the lives of countless Disciples.
Yan Yun Tower
Yan Yun Tower Master Luo Ziyan, Vice Tower Master Luo Ziyun, and Grand Elder Cloud Grace were discussing things in a secret room. After learning that the Taichu Sect had been attacked, they knew in their hearts that this must have been Jiang Ye's doing. However, they chose to remain silent and did not reveal any information to the outside world or the Taichu Sect.
Luo Ziyan slowly spoke, "Tomorrow's competition will likely be different from previous ones. Jiang Ye's growth is too terrifying! Moreover, his murderous nature is far beyond that of ordinary people; those who offend him are almost always eradicated by him."
Luo Ziyun frowned slightly and asked, "Sister, then what should we do? Stand on Jiang Ye's side?"
Luo Ziyan took a deep breath, a hint of determination flashing in her eyes. "Now, only he can help us break free from the shackles of fate. Let's take a gamble! I'm truly tired and don't want to keep running anymore."
Cloud Grace nodded in agreement. "Good! Young Miss, I also support your decision. This time, we'll bet everything on Jiang Ye!"
The Next Day
The day of the Profound Realm Youth Competition finally arrived. The organizer was the absolute overlord power of the Profound Realm—the Shen Xuan Alliance.
Now, the young Geniuses from every major power in the Profound Realm have begun to rush to the competition venue, creating a tense and enthusiastic atmosphere.
Xuan Lei Sect
Lei Ming was the person in charge of this expedition to the competition. More than a hundred other participating Disciples had already gathered and were ready to depart. However, Jiang Ye was nowhere to be seen, and Lei Ming was now stomping his feet in anxiety.
"Has none of you seen him? Why hasn't he returned at such a time?" Lei Ming asked anxiously.
In the Sect now, there were hardly any people who knew of Jiang Ye's existence. Not long after he arrived, he directly entered the Heavenly Thunder Pool, coming out only after two months of secluded cultivation, and then left the Xuan Lei Sect.
Added to the fact that he had always been as low-key as an invisible person, let alone the Disciples of the Xuan Lei Sect, even the Elders had only heard that the Vice Sect Master had taken a new Disciple, but they weren't quite sure which one it was.
Hearing Lei Ming's words, the participating Disciples began to discuss among themselves. They knew he was waiting for someone, but they didn't know who.
Liu Gang shook his head helplessly and said, "It's said he went to find the companions who came to the Profound Realm with him, but for some reason, he hasn't returned yet."
Lei Ming sighed and said, "Then we'll go to the venue first and not wait for him. We'll let him go there himself when the time comes!" He then waved his hand and tore through space.
"Let's go!" Liu Gang shouted, entering the space with Lei Ming. In an instant, the group arrived at the outskirts of Shen Xuan City.
The other Disciples were all very surprised. To traverse such a long distance in an instant—the strength of the Xuan King Realm was indeed terrifyingly powerful.
The location for this competition was held within Shen Xuan City, which was controlled by the Shen Xuan Alliance. Therefore, no matter what power one belonged to, everyone had to stop outside Shen Xuan City and then enter through the city gates on foot.
On the Other Side
At a place outside Shen Xuan City, a person wearing a fiery red robe and a flame mask blocked the team from the Taichu Sect coming to participate in the Profound Realm Youth Competition. He held a long saber in his hand, its blade wrapped in golden flames, and his Aura was imposing!
This time, the Taichu Sect was led by Vice Sect Master Zhang Liu, with a total of more than a hundred and fifty people. Zhang Liu and the others were very surprised that someone actually dared to block the path of the Taichu Sect, but he quickly thought of the person who had attacked the Taichu Sect twice.
Zhang Liu's brows furrowed tightly, and he said coldly, "Was it you who attacked my Taichu Sect before?"
Boom!! The masked man's flame power erupted, and at this moment, his entire body was wrapped in golden flames. But he said in a cold voice, "Taichu Sect, I heard you guys are very arrogant! I've come to meet you and see if you have the strength to be that arrogant."
A hidden Prodigy Disciple of the Taichu Sect at the Xuan Saint Realm Fifth Stage walked forward slowly with a haughty expression. He looked at Jiang Ye, sneered, and said, "Where did this ant jump out from? Not knowing the height of the heavens and the depth of the earth, you dare to spout such arrogant words before my Taichu Sect. I'll send you on your way!"
"Hmm?" Zhang Liu instantly realized something was wrong and shouted, "Watch out!"
Bang!! The flame man instantly appeared in front of that Xuan Saint Realm Fifth Stage Prodigy Disciple and slashed him into ashes with a single blow.
Zhang Liu was furious. "Bastard! You dare to kill a Prodigy Disciple of my Taichu Sect? I'll slaughter you!" He immediately attacked the flame man.
"Divine Technique! Divine Dragon Roar!" Roar!!! A huge golden fire dragon soared into the sky. That's right! The flame man was Jiang Ye. At this moment, he stood at the dragon's head, looking coldly at Zhang Liu.
The golden fire dragon summoned by Jiang Ye had already undergone a qualitative change. After the God Slaying Bloodline devoured the sun bloodline, this giant dragon was summoned entirely by activating the God Slaying Bloodline Power. Its current power was worlds apart from the fire dragons he had summoned before.
"What!" Zhang Liu was horrified. The power emitted by this golden fire dragon was already enough to contend with him, a Xuan King Realm Fifth Stage.
Zhang Liu calmed himself and asked, "Who exactly are you? Why are you opposing my Taichu Sect?"
Jiang Ye said indifferently, "Time is a bit tight, let's do it!"
Roar!!! The fire dragon gave a massive roar and charged directly into the crowd of the Taichu Sect. A Xuan King Realm Elder of the Taichu Sect shouted, "Everyone, open the defense together to stop it! This fire dragon is not simple!"
A huge protective shield was instantly formed, but the fire dragon also reached them and crashed directly into it.
Bang!!! "Ah..." Because the impact of the fire dragon was too powerful, it caused the protective shield formed by more than a hundred people to vibrate violently. Some Disciples with low Realms were shaken to the point of spitting blood by the resulting shockwave.
Jiang Ye shouted again, "Divine Technique! Divine Dragon Clone!" Roar!!!
Five huge fire dragons split off from the first one, surrounding everyone from the Taichu Sect. Their Elders and Disciples were all pale with fright. Was this formation meant to wipe them all out?
Zhang Liu also began to get a little flustered at this time. He was confident in dealing with a single giant dragon. However, this person's Cultivation Technique was too strange; the power of the fire dragons that split off remained undiminished.
Zhang Liu roared, "If you attack our participating Disciples now, the Shen Xuan Alliance will surely pursue this to the end and uproot all the powers behind you!"
"Hmm? Shen Xuan Alliance?" Jiang Ye was stunned. He had heard of this number one overlord power of the Profound Realm before. Slaughtering these people now would indeed be a bit troublesome; he currently didn't have the strength to confront the Shen Xuan Alliance.
Jiang Ye looked at the group and said, "Who is Zhang Kai? Step forward!"
"He was just killed by you!" an Elder said.
At this time, Jiang Ye's Soul Power had already sensed that five Xuan King Realm experts had come out from the city, one of whom was even a level stronger than Zhang Liu.
The five people appeared and were also somewhat surprised to see the five huge fire dragons. The strongest among them asked Jiang Ye, "Who are you? Why are you attacking the people of a participating power?"
Jiang Ye withdrew all the fire dragons, dispersed the flames on his body, and put away his long saber, saying, "This was purely a personal grudge with that Disciple of theirs. Now, the grudge is settled."
Seeing the five Shen Xuan Alliance experts appear, Zhang Liu gained confidence and challenged Jiang Ye, "You killed a Prodigy Disciple of my Taichu Sect at will. Do you think you can just let it go like this? Five Messengers, please take him down and punish him severely!"
Jiang Ye laughed loudly, "Hahaha! If you are not convinced, why don't the two of us have a life-and-death duel? How about it?"
The people from the Shen Xuan Alliance knew that taking down Jiang Ye would definitely not be easy. Given the Aura of those five fire dragons just now, if they were to fight, no one would gain any advantage.
The strongest person from the Shen Xuan Alliance looked at Jiang Ye and then at the people from the Taichu Sect, finally saying, "Since it's a personal grudge and he didn't attack the rest of you, and with the competition about to start, let's stop the conflict here. You two parties can handle it yourselves in the future!"
"What? Messenger, this..." Zhang Liu didn't expect that with so many Xuan King Realms here, they would actually choose to back down.
"Then I shall take my leave. People of the Taichu Sect, I will come looking for you very soon." After Jiang Ye finished speaking, he directly tore through space and left.
The people from the Shen Xuan Alliance didn't stop him from leaving either. At a time like this, it wasn't suitable to escalate the matter. More importantly, they thought of one thing: although this person wore a mask and his age couldn't be seen, since he had a grudge with a Disciple of a power, he couldn't be very old.
The price of getting tangled with a person who was young and possessed such strength would not be small. It was better to let the people of the Taichu Sect handle it themselves. Soon after, they also left to go back and prepare for the competition.
After the Shen Xuan Alliance experts left, the people from the Taichu Sect at the scene all felt very aggrieved. One of their Prodigy Disciples, whom they had spent a massive amount of resources to cultivate, was killed in broad daylight, yet the people from the Shen Xuan Alliance hadn't even helped them seek justice.
