Unrivaled Medicine God, page 217
The Heavenly Sky Sect's might was indisputable. Only by combining the other seven sect's strength could they maintain a delicate balance with the Heavenly Sky Sect.
If the other seven sects had infighting, how could the Heavenly Sky Sect let go of such a good opportunity?
Could the brains of the Purple Mansion Sect's upper echelons all be damaged?
"Did you all forget about Lin Feng?" Ye Yuan suddenly said.
Everyone was abruptly startled. How could they possibly forget Lin Feng?
It was precisely Lin Feng's masterpiece that threw them behind bars and even becoming slaves.
"The Purple Mansion Sect endured patiently for many years. Their strength is most likely far from as simple as the surface! That Lin Feng's age isn't considered old and he actually has Fourth Level Sea Transformation Realm cultivation. Not saying that they have large numbers of experts, but concealing a couple of Soul Sea Realm martial artists, it probably isn't that easy for the Heavenly Sky Sect to want to discover," Ye Yuan said.
With Ye Yuan saying this, everyone's heart plummeted to rock bottom.
The Purple Mansion Sect was a chess piece buried in the Endless World by the wind emperor. After so many years of secret development, their strength was most likely already unfathomable.
Everyone had a feeling in their hearts that the Southern Domain's situation right now most likely already underwent an earth-shaking change!
But these were all for later. Mei Zhen and the others did not dare to dawdle and sped along the way and arrived at the mountain peak very soon.
Within sight, the entire Tranquil Cloud Sect was already in an upheaval!
There were fighting, and battle cries all around. Everywhere were dead bodies!
The originally quiet and serene Spirit Blessing Mountain was already in an abyss of suffering right now.
"Purple Mansion Sect bastards! You will all die a horrible death! Argh!" cried a Crystal Formation Realm disciple, giving a miserable cry and perished together with a Purple Mansion Sect disciple.
Yet, this was just a minority situation. Regardless whether it was in numbers or strength, the Purple Mansion Sect disciples far surpassed the Tranquil Cloud Sect.
Just the Purple Mansion Sect's Sea Transformation Realm martial artists were as many as over a dozen. Although they were only low-stage Sea Transformation Realm, to deal with some Crystal Formation Realm disciples, it was ample.
While on the Tranquil Cloud Sect's side, they actually did not see a single Sea Transformation Realm elder!
The battle was simply a one-sided situation!
Many Tranquil Cloud Sect disciples were facing many people from the other side alone. How could they be these Tranquil Cloud Sect disciples' match?
When Mei Zhen and the others saw such a tragic state, how could they hold back? They wielded their swords and were about to charge forward.
But before his figure had yet to move, he was held back by someone from behind.
Turning around to take a look, it was actually Ye Yuan.
Only to hear Ye Yuan lightly leave behind two words as he walked past Mei Zhen, "Allow me."
Ye Yuan's figure drifted and arrived at the center of the battlefront.
Immediately, there was a Purple Mansion Sect disciple who charged up without fear of death!
An azure sword light instantly appeared. That Purple Mansion Sect disciple had yet to even react, and his head and body were separated.
"Looks like this Purple Mansion Sect's attack has already thoroughly infuriated Mister Ye!" Yue Mengli said calmly.
"Truly a bunch of fellows who don't know life from death! They probably don't even know how terrifying Mister Ye will be once he becomes enraged!" Yan-er also had a cold smile at the corners of her mouth.
Towards the Purple Mansion Sect's sect annihilating conduct, Yan-er was very disdainful in her heart.
"This . . . What's Junior Apprentice Brother Ye going to do?" Tian Yu asked puzzledly.
Mo Yuntian seemed to have guessed a little and said in shock, "He didn't let us attack; could it be that he wants to deal with all of the Purple Mansion Sect disciples alone?"
"W-What kind of joke is this?! There are several hundred Purple Mansion Sect disciples here. Furthermore, the vast majority of them are Crystal Formation Realm martial artists. Among them, there are even over a dozen Sea Transformation Realm martial artists. Junior Apprentice Brother Ye he . . . wants to deal with it alone?" Tian Yu almost jumped up.
But Xiao Ruyan's curled her mouth and said with a proud look, "You guys watch well. Master alone is enough!"
The group of seniors all exchanged glances and looked at Ye Yuan with disbelief.
And at this time, Ye Yuan pointed Canghua Sword at the sky. Countless flower petals started condensing in the air!
"This . . . is this Junior Apprentice Brother Ye's Thousand Flowing Petals? Is there a mistake? How could he condense so much flower petals?"
Tian Yu had seen Ye Yuan's Thousand Flowing Petals once. But back then, Ye Yuan was still just a Spirit Condensation Realm martial artist. At that time, although the power of this move was great, it was not formidable to this sort of extent!
There were increasingly more and more flower petals condensing in the air. It finally alarmed all of the martial artists present!
"What's going on here? Why would it rain flower petals from the sky?"
"You dumb*ss. This is formed from heaven and earth essence energy. Somebody is casting a skill!"
"W-Who actually has such formidable strength? Even First Elder probably can't mobilize such horrifying heaven and earth essence energy either, right?"
"Quick, look! It's that boy casting it!"
At this time, there were finally several Sea Transformation Realm martial artists who felt that something was wrong. Somebody shouted out, "Quickly! The few of you go together and finish off that punk! This move of that punk is somewhat sinister!"
When these words were finished saying, over a dozen late-stage Crystal Formation Realm martial artists and several Sea Transformation Realm martial artists abandoned their original opponents and all converged towards Ye Yuan.
Ye Yuan looked at this scene coldly, and from his mouth, he said coolly, "All of you dregs can go and die already."
The flower petals which covered the entire sky seemed to have spirituality at this moment, churning towards the Purple Mansion Sect martial artists in clusters!
The hundreds of Purple Mansion Sect experts present all suffered the assault of the flower petals. And those Sea Transformation Realm martial artists were heavily focused targets.
The flower petals gathered on their side were multiple times of Crystal Formation Realm martial artists!
After two breaths, there were Purple Mansion Sect disciples starting to give off miserable cries.
After five breaths, more and more Purple Mansion Sect disciple were giving off miserable cries.
For a moment, innumerable tragic cries linked up, reverberating through the skies.
Those Tranquil Cloud Sect disciples who stopped could not resist shuddering when they heard their opponents' wretched screams.
Chapter 446. Southern Domain's Change |
Under the soaring flowers, it was akin to a meat grinder, wantonly reaping the lives of these Purple Mansion Sect disciples.
After a hundred breaths, the entire mountain peak was already deathly silent.
Apart from Yue Mengli and a small minority, everyone was struck dumb with amazement by this scene.
All the Tranquil Cloud Sect disciples were staring fixedly at that young man's figure in the center of the battlefield, speechless from shock.
At this very moment, Ye Yuan was akin to a fiend god. Even the Tranquil Cloud Sect disciples were not able to easily recognize him.
"I-Is it Ye Yuan?"
After a long time, someone suddenly asked weakly, finally breaking the battlefield's serenity.
Ye Yuan turned around to look. It was actually someone familiar!
"Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang Jing!" Ye Yuan also said with a faint smile.
Hearing Ye Yuan's words, Zhang Jing's entire body trembled. "Y-Ye Yuan! It's really you! So you're alright! That's really great!"
As he was talking, Zhang Jing's eyes actually welled up a little with hot tears.
Zhang Jing was the person who led Ye Yuan in the sect. Although the two people did not have any deep friendship afterward, time passed and circumstances have changed. Everyone's feelings were seemingly sublimated.
Moreover, Zhang Jing had considerable comprehensions after the fight with Ye Yuan. At this time, he had long become a Crystal Formation Realm martial artist!
Hence, in his heart, Zhang Jing was still fairly grateful towards Ye Yuan.
This time, Ye Yuan and the others entered deep into the mystic realm, and not a single one actually returned. Everybody no longer held hopes towards their survival.
Now, when they met, the agitation in Zhang Jing's heart could be imagined.
Ye Yuan said with a smile, "Not just me alone. You look!"
As he said, Ye Yuan pointed to Mo Yuntian and the rest. Mo Yuntian and the rest also moved closer at this time and gathered together with everyone.
When Zhang Jing saw Mei Zhen, Mo Yuntian, and the rest, tears could not resist flowing again.
"Elder Mei, Senior Apprentice Brother Mo . . . Everybody. . . Everybody came back! T-Truly excellent! We even thought . . . even thought . . ." Zhang Jing choked and did not even finish saying his words.
Seeing Zhang Jing so agitated, Mo Yuntian and the rest had a multitude of feelings surge up too. They choked and said, "The mystic realm trip this time was indeed near-certain death. It was all thanks to Junior Apprentice Brother Ye that we could return safely."
Zhang Jing was surprised, and his gaze involuntarily looked towards Ye Yuan again, his face showing disbelief.
"Junior Apprentice Brother Ye, you . . . you're actually already at the Seventh Level Crystal Formation Realm!"
Ye Yuan's extreme massacring move previously made everyone's mind sustain a tremendous impact, and they forgot about his realm for a moment.
Only at this time, did Zhang Jing suddenly notice that several months of not meeting, and Ye Yuan was actually at the Seventh Level Crystal Formation Realm already; increased a full major realm higher than before he left.
Such an improvement speed was seriously too outrageous.
Furthermore, that move earlier . . .
Was that really released by a Seventh Level Crystal Formation Realm martial artist?
Zhang Jing's eye was filled with doubt and felt tremendous curiosity towards Mo Yuntian and the others' trip to the mystic realm.
Ye Yuan saw through Zhang Jing's uncertainty and said smilingly, "This matter is hard to say in a single sentence. I'll tell in detail again later on with seniors. Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang's improvement these few months isn't small either!"
Zhang Jing gave an odd expression and said could not help laughing, "Don't ridicule me, Junior Apprentice Brother Ye. Compared to you, what does mine even count as?"
Ye Yuan chuckled, but then he enquired, "Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang, what in the world happened to the Tranquil Cloud Sect? Where are Sect Master, Hall Head Xiao, and the rest? Also, why is there not even a single Sea Transformation Realm elder in the sect?"
Zhang Jing's expression changed, and he said hatefully, "The Southern Domain's skies have completely changed! This Purple Mansion Sect concealed too deeply!"
Zhang Jing recounted the events that happened to the Southern Domain these few months briefly to everyone.
Turned out that after Ye Yuan and the others left, Luo Qingfeng, Xiao Jian, and Ling Potian immediately entered closed-seclusion to cultivate, and planned on breaking through to the Soul Sea Realm in one go!
Luo Qingfeng did not disappoint. A month later, under Skymaple's assistance, he finally broke through to the Soul Sea Realm, becoming the Tranquil Cloud Sect's second Soul Sea Realm martial artist!
Furthermore, Luo Qingfeng was a martial artist. His combat power was much stronger compared to Skymaple's!
With Luo Qingfeng this Soul Sea Realm powerhouse, the Tranquil Cloud Sect could be said to stand firmly on this title of Eight Great Sects.
Xiao Jian and Ling Potian also both broke through and left seclusion not long after. The two of them broke through to half-step Soul Sea Realm at the same time!
Regarding this news, Ye Yuan was not surprised.
Before he left, he knew that Skymaple was refining Soul Luring Pills and medicinal pills that could aid Sea Transformation Realm martial artists to break through. The few of them breaking through was naturally something within reason.
Under such circumstances, the Tranquil Cloud Sect could be said to be prospering with each passing day.
Yet, over a month ago, all of this underwent a change!
The Heavenly Sky Sect suddenly took the road to ruin by sending out hero invitations to the seven great sects, inviting the sect masters of the various great sects to carry out a Southern Domain Sect Great Meet.
Even though Luo Qingfeng broke through to the Soul Sea Realm, the Heavenly Sky Sect was powerful after all. The sect masters of the seven great sects still kept the appointment and went to the Heavenly Sky Sect.
Yet, after half a month, news suddenly came from the seven great sects, saying that the Heavenly Sky Sect forced the seven great sect masters, requesting the seven great sects to be merged into the Heavenly Sky Sect. The seven great sect masters refused to obey even in death and were detained by the Heavenly Sky Sect!
With this, the Southern Domain's seven great sects completely exploded, all asking to send forces to suppress the Heavenly Sky Sect!
Right at this time, the Purple Mansion Sect came out to raise their fist and shout, asking for the seven great sects to gather together to launch a crusade against the Heavenly Sky Sect.
The Tranquil Cloud Sect naturally had no reason to reject this. Grand Elder Skymaple and Xiao Jian brought a group of elders and elite disciples, and they joined the expedition's great army.
But Skymaple was wary before he departed, gathering twenty of the sect's genius disciples with good prospects together, and letting a Sea Transformation Realm elder lead the team to quietly head for the Northern Domain.
Yet, with this departure, they did not return anymore!
A few days ago, only when an elder escaped back to the sect with heavy injuries, did the disciples know that turned out the entire Southern Domain was hoodwinked by the Purple Mansion Sect!
The Heavenly Sky Sect convening this Southern Domain Sect Great Meet was truly an action seeking their own doom.
The Heavenly Sky Sect's Sect Master was very arrogant during the great meet and wanted to forcefully integrate the seven great sects into the Heavenly Sky Sect. These were all the truth.
But the final result was that the Purple Mansion Sect's Sect Master, He Mingde, suddenly rose in revolt and took control of the other seven sect's sect masters!
Only then did the seven great sect masters know that this normally very low-profile He Mingde was actually a late-stage Soul Sea Realm powerhouse!
In the Southern Domain, late-stage Soul Sea Realm was basically an invincible existence.
Before the Southern Domain's Sect Great Meet, He Mingde had long set up a backup plan and took control of the Heavenly Sky Sect very quickly, sealing off the news.
The Purple Mansion Sect at this time, as the second strongest sect, lured out all of the six great sect's elite forces under summons.
In the end, when they were launching a collective attack, the Purple Mansion Sect suddenly launch an attack, catching the six sects completely unprepared!
Only at this time did the six sects know of the Purple Mansion Sect's terrifying strength!
In this battle, over a dozen Soul Sea Realm powerhouses appeared all at once in the Purple Mansion Sect. Even if the six great sects joined hands, how could they possibly be the Purple Mansion Sect's match?
Let alone that the Purple Mansion Sect concealed so deeply, catching everybody completely off guard!
With Sea Transformation Realm experts managing the array formation, the Tranquil Cloud Sect's sect protecting great formation was already practically existing in name only. Under the teaming up of over a dozen Sea Transformation Realm experts, they attacked inside very quickly.
Right at this moment, Ye Yuan and the others reached, saving a group of fellow apprentices.
Chapter 447. Venting Anger |
Mei Zhen and the rest sucked in a cold breath when they heard it. Over a dozen Soul Sea Realm powerhouses could virtually sweep across the Southern Domain!
Even the so-called number one great sect, the Heavenly Sky Sect, did not have so many Soul Sea Realm powerhouses either!
Let alone that the Purple Mansion Sect's Sect Master was even a late-stage Soul Sea Realm powerhouse.
The Southern Domain at this time was already the Purple Mansion Sect's world!
Ye Yuan also furrowed his brows when he heard and asked, "Sect Master they all . . ."
Zhang Jing said, "The Purple Mansion Sect imprisoned all of the seven sect's upper echelons in the Heavenly Sky Sect's Towering Peak, and they have three Soul Sea Realm powerhouse standing guard!"
When everyone heard that, they all heaved a long sigh in relief.
As long as they were alive, there was hope.
But Zhang Jing's follow up words plunged their hearts to rock-bottom again. Zhang Jing said, "The Purple Mansion Sect seized a large batch of prisoners this time. I heard that they would kill a batch every day in front of the sect master and the various sect's grand elders. The goal is in order to make them surrender. I heard that there were already quite a number of the six sect's upper echelons that have surrendered. I don't know . . . how long Grand Elder and Sect Master they all can endure."
"Purple Mansion Sect this bunch of people is really too despicable! To actually be able to do this sort of inhuman thing! They will suffer the wrath of heaven!"
When Mei Zhen and the rest heard these words, they all gnashed their teeth in hatred.
