Killing intent blotted the skies outside of the Divine Spiritual Mountain, causing the hearts of the various big shots to shake. Faced against such a lineup, even with their mental fortitude, it was impossible for them to maintain their calm.
"Haha. Do you really think that my Demonic Dragon Palace is afraid of you, Tai Cang?!"
Hearing Dean Tai Cang's words, the Black Dragon Sovereign started to laugh heartily. A chilling glint surfaced within his eyes. Taking a step forward, he replied with a smile, "Do you really think that my Demonic Dragon Palace has endured for so many years without doing anything?
Today, even if you, Hokuang Reiwon, don't dare to start a war, my Demonic Dragon Palace will annihilate you! "
A tremor shook through the hearts of countless experts. Even the big shots from the peak influences of the Northern Heavens Continent had their faces slightly change. In the past, the Demonic Dragon Palace had always avoided direct conflict with Hokuang Reiwon. Why had they suddenly become so unyielding today?
Could it be that they really wanted to start a war?
Once a war of that degree started, even Sovereigns might face the danger of falling.
The death of a Supreme-Being would be a fatal blow to both sides.
"It's rare that your Demonic Dragon Palace dares to start a war again. This time, I, Hokuang Reiwon, will clean it up."
Dean Tai Cang's expression was ice-cold, while his words were similarly unyielding to the point of being a complete mess. The Demonic Dragon Palace and Hokuang Reiwon were already mortal enemies. Back then, Hokuang Reiwon had knocked the Demonic Dragon Palace down from their position as the Overlord of the Northern Heavens Continent, causing them to lose their prestige and prestige. Similarly, the Demonic Dragon Palace had concealed themselves for the past few years, causing god-knows how many students training in the continent to fall under their hands. Therefore, Dean Tai Cang was already filled with murderous intent towards the Demonic Dragon Palace. If he truly wanted to start a war, he was willing to pay some price to completely uproot this malignant tumor from the Northern Heavens Continent!
"Haha!"
The Black Dragon Sovereign gave a hearty chuckle, a somewhat strange smile appearing on his face. In the next instant, with a furious wave of his hand, a fierce roar resounded across the world.
"Tai Cang, today, this Divine Spiritual Mountain will be the place where you perish!"
Boom!
Just as the Black Dragon Sovereign's roar resounded across the horizon, the space in this region suddenly started to warp and distort. Five streaks of light that were ten thousand feet in length rushed towards the horizon, blotting out the sky. The boundless Spiritual Energy radiating from them appeared to have turned corporeal, and could be clearly seen even from a thousand miles away.
Everyone's faces drastically changed as they directed their gazes over. There were five silhouettes in the five streaks of light with the pressure of a Sovereign spreading out.
"Those are the Five Great Sovereigns of the Demonic Dragon Palace!"
The hearts of some of the bigwigs trembled. The Demonic Dragon Palace had indeed come prepared this time. All of their Sovereign level experts had actually appeared. Were they planning to kill Dean Tai Cang here?
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Countless experts in this area hurriedly retreated, afraid of being affected by this terrifying lineup.
Clearly, the target of the Demonic Dragon Palace was only Dean Tai Cang. Therefore, they didn't care about anyone else retreating.
Standing behind Dean Tai Cang, the lovable faces of Ling Xi and Luo Li slightly contorted. In the next instant, Ling Xi grabbed onto Luo Li's wrist, and with a flash of her alluring figure, she hastily retreated. A confrontation of this level would place Luo Li in extreme danger. Therefore, she needed to bring her away from Dean Tai Cang's side.
Dean Tai Cang's face sank as he looked at the majestic spectacle before him. A chilling glint flashed within his eyes as he said, "So your Demonic Dragon Palace has already made preparations. However, do you really think that you can let me perish here?"
"Haha, come and give it a try!"
With a jolt from the Black Dragon Sovereign's body, a ten thousand metre long ray of light rushed towards the sky. Boundless Spiritual Energy surged as it stirred the Spiritual Energy of the world. Six ten thousand metre long rays of light seemed to form some sort of formation, trapping Dean Tai Cang within. Clearly, the Black Dragon Sovereign was planning on combining the strength of the Six Great Sovereigns of the Demonic Dragon Palace to suppress and kill Dean Tai Cang.
A chilling glint flashed past Dean Tai Cang's eyes. His strength had already reached the Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm, while the Black Dragon Sovereign was also a Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm cultivator. Compared to him, the other five Sovereigns of the Demonic Dragon Palace were all First Grade Sovereigns. Indeed, such a formation posed an extremely strong threat to him. However, wasn't the Black Dragon Sovereign a little too naive? To take action against him in the Northern Heavens Continent, did he really think that their Hokuang Reiwon didn't have any experts?
In the distance, Ling Xi brought Luo Li to a safe location. Looking towards the region that was brimming with boundless Spiritual Energy, her beautiful eyes knitted together as she said, "Luo Li, you stay here first. I'll go help Dean Tai Cang."
Although Ling Xi wasn't considered as one of Hokuang Reiwon's people, she was, after all, an Elder. Furthermore, she had indeed received some care from Dean Tai Cang over the past few years. Furthermore, the most important thing was that she had bumped into Mu Chen here. Therefore, now that the latter was in trouble, she naturally couldn't just stand by and watch.
"Okay. Be careful, Elder Sister Ling Xi."
Luo Li nodded her head. Although the situation before her was exceedingly frightening, to the point that even some of the big shots of the Northern Heavens Continent were shaken, she didn't lose her composure or panic. After all, she was the Empress of the Luo God Clan, and the future Empress of the Luo God Clan. Being one of the Four Great God Clans of the Western Heavenly World, the Luo God Clan's foundation and background far surpassed that of Hokuang Reiwon and the Demonic Dragon Palace. Although they had gradually declined over the past few years, the Sovereign Stage experts present within their clan were absolutely not something that Hokuang Reiwon and the Demonic Dragon Palace could compare to.
Nodding her head, Ling Xi proceeded to take action.
However, just as she took a step forward, her lovable face abruptly turned cold. Staring coldly at the empty space before her, she said in a cold voice, "Where did this scoundrel come from? You only know how to hide your head and show your tail?"
As her voice rang out, she had already extended her slender jade-like hand. Facing the space before her, she gave a sudden clench.
Boundless Spiritual Energy hid the skies and covered the earth as it gushed out like a ray of light. Transforming into a thousand-metre long Spiritual Energy vortex, it violently smashed towards the empty space before her.
"Haha. What a ferocious girl."
All of a sudden, the empty space turned dark and abstruse, before a figure surfaced in the air. With a wave of his sleeve, countless shadows seemingly took shape behind his back, completely blocking the incoming Spiritual Energy rays of light.
Dressed in black, it was a middle-aged man. His body was sturdy and sturdy, while his eyes were dark and gloomy. His black hair fluttered in the wind, while his bearing appeared to be extraordinary. Clearly, he wasn't a simple person.
"Who are you?" Looking at the middle-aged man before her, Ling Xi's eyebrows wrinkled as she asked.
"Liu An," replied the middle-aged man with a faint smile.
"President of the Umbra Chamber of Commerce, Liu An?"
Ling Xi's lovable face slightly sunk as she replied, "Looks like your Umbra Chamber of Commerce has colluded with the Demonic Dragon Palace. You've got quite the guts to actually dare to take action against Hokuang Reiwon. Aren't you afraid of provoking a great calamity?"
"Haha. Miss Ling Xi's words are too serious. Our Umbra Chamber of Commerce doesn't have any intentions of going against Hokuang Reiwon. It's just that the Demonic Dragon Palace has offered us some rewards that have piqued my interest. All I need to do is to obstruct you."
With a faint smile, Liu An replied, "I hope that Miss Ling Xi can understand. If you don't take action, I'll definitely not take action against you."
"Oh?
You think that you can obstruct me? "Ling Xi replied with a ridiculing tone.
"Haha. I know that Miss Ling Xi is a Spiritual Array Grandmaster. However, I believe that with my strength at Third Grade Sovereign, it shouldn't be hard for me to tangle with you," replied Liu An with a smile.
With a sneer, Ling Xi replied, "Are you sure that you haven't lost your mind?
I'm afraid that Lord Northern Sea of Hokuang Reiwon will immediately know about this matter. Are you sure that when he arrives, you won't be so scared that your faces will turn pale? "
Hearing the words' Lord Northern Sea ', Liu An's eyes clearly faintly shrank. Within the Northern Heavens Continent, the Northern Sea Dragon could be said to be an invincible existence. It was precisely because of this existence overseeing Hokuang Reiwon that there wasn't a single power that dared to shake Hokuang Reiwon's position in the past few years.
"Since the Demonic Dragon Palace dares to take action, they naturally have a method to deal with the Northern Sea Dragon," replied Liu An in a soft voice with a smile.
Hearing this, Ling Xi's heart faintly trembled. The Northern Sea Dragon was an existence at Ninth Grade Sovereign. Within the Northern Heavens Continent, there wasn't a single person that could contend against him. The Demonic Dragon Palace actually had a method to deal with the Northern Sea Dragon?
Was that even possible?
However, she didn't give a cold laugh towards this matter. The people from the Demonic Dragon Palace weren't fools. They clearly knew how gigantic of a threat the Northern Sea Dragon was to them. If they truly didn't have any methods to deal with him, they would absolutely not dare to start a war with Hokuang Reiwon.
"I really want to see exactly if you have the ability to obstruct me."
Suppressing the shock within her heart, Ling Xi shot a chilling gaze towards Liu An. At this moment, rays of light started to swim within her jade-like fingers.
"Sigh. Then I'll have to offend Miss Ling Xi."
Liu An gave a sigh. Behind him, endless darkness seemed to extend out, corroding the heavens and earth.
Divine Spiritual City.
Hallmaster Mo You and Elder Zhu Tian didn't follow them towards the Divine Spiritual Mountain. However, when the numerous streaks of light rushed towards the heavens, the faces of the two people who were playing chess within a pavilion instantly changed. As Hallmaster Mo You's chess piece landed on the chessboard, his finger trembled, causing the jade-like chessboard to shatter into dust.
Shooting a look at each other, both of them could see the shock within the other's eyes. Furiously standing up, they rushed towards the Divine Spiritual Mountain.
"Haha. Please allow me to accompany the two of you for a game of chess."
As the two of them stood up, a faint laughter rang out within the pavilion. Furiously turning their heads around, Hallmaster Mo You and Elder Zhu Tian saw a white-robed male slowly appearing on a chair by the side. At this moment, the latter was smiling faintly as he looked towards them.
"President of the Heavenly Yuan Chamber of Commerce, Dong Ming."
Upon seeing this person, the eyes of Hallmaster Mo You and Elder Zhu Tian instantly sunk.
Hokuang Reiwon.
Countless students were still focused on the frozen Spiritual Energy glowing screen. While they were still immersed in their emotions, a blood-red pillar of light suddenly rushed towards the heavens from a large hall in the centre of the Spiritual Academy. In the next instant, urgent bell chimes resounded across the entire region.
Boom!
Boom!
The faces of countless students violently contorted as they looked towards the blood-red pillar of light that rushed towards the heavens. Within the blood-red pillar of light, a giant blood-red bell was crazily vibrating.
"That's the Blood Soul Bell?!"
Shock and astonishment filled the eyes of Shen Cangsheng and the rest. This was the most critical moment that their Hokuang Reiwon had ever faced. After so many years, this was the first time that they had seen the Blood Soul Bell move.
At this moment, the entire Hokuang Reiwon turned chaotic as all of the higher-ups rushed out, their faces filled with shock as they looked at this scene.
Rustle!
Rustle!
The other two Heavenly Seated Elders that remained in Hokuang Reiwon also appeared in the sky. Their faces were solemn as they looked at the Blood Soul Bell. Exchanging glances, they said, "Something has happened over at the Dean's side!"
Just when the entire Hokuang Reiwon was in a state of chaos, the urgent bell chimes suddenly stopped. As everyone looked over, they saw a skinny figure appearing beside the giant bell. With a wave of his sleeve, the bell was sent into the large hall.
The skinny old man's clothes were somewhat sloppy and his head was bald. He didn't have the slightest demeanor of an expert. At this moment, a faint frown appeared on his forehead as he looked towards the chaotic Hokuang Reiwon and said, "All of you, quiet down!"
Although his voice was extremely aged, it contained a powerful pressure. With a single roar, it instantly suppressed all of the chaos within the hall.
"Lord Northern Sea!"
Upon seeing the bald old man, the two Heavenly Seated Elders hastily paid their respects.
"Cao Xiu, the two of you immediately activate the Spiritual Array that protects the academy, before rushing to the Divine Spiritual Mountain. As for the other higher-ups, you'll guard Hokuang Reiwon. Forbid anyone from entering or leaving!"
Said the bald old man in an indifferent tone. At this moment, he no longer had the laziness that he had in the past. Although he appeared to be sloppy, there was a faint trace of domineering aura gushing out from him.
"Yes!"
Upon hearing his words, the two Heavenly Seated Elders quickly replied.
Raising his head, the bald old man looked towards the direction of the Divine Spiritual Mountain in the Northern Heavens Continent. With a cold snort, he said, "Looks like it's time for the Demonic Dragon Palace to be completely wiped out."
As his voice rang out, with a move of his body, he rushed towards the sky. As rays of brilliance gushed out, the entire world seemed to turn dark. Raising their heads, all of the students present were shocked to see a pair of black cloud-hanging wings unfurling across the horizon, covering an area of a thousand kilometres.
Screech!
The seemingly endless giant black bird raised its head towards the sky and gave a long cry. With a flap of its cloud-hanging wings, the surrounding space shattered apart. In the next instant, its incomparably gigantic body disappeared into the air.
"That's …"
Countless students were dumbfounded, before incomparable emotions started to radiate from their eyes.
"That's Lord Northern Sea Dragon!" (To be continued)
