The Demonic Cult's Methods, The Gate of Reception!!

"With a senior present, whether it's the Demon God or our Demonic Cult, we can't help but feel uneasy!"

"Even if you've already retired, as long as we don't see you completely crippled, we'll always feel uneasy."

"So... please, senior, spend your retirement here in Cloud City!"

Zhao Changsheng smiled faintly, looking at Kong Yunzhang before him, a sinister glint appearing in his eyes.

However, Kong Yunzhang's expression remained unchanged by Zhao Changsheng's words, merely looking at him calmly.

"Although this old man is old, I'm not so easily threatened by you two juniors!"

"One at Bone Forging, and the other who has broken one Shackles, and you think you can threaten this old man?"

"It seems that after all these years, the Demonic Cult still hasn't changed its arrogant nature!"

Kong Yunzhang said calmly.

Zhao Changsheng smiled slightly, "With the strength of us two, let alone threatening you, we're not even worthy of carrying your shoes. But..."

"Do you really think that since we dared to come, it's only us two? Although our Demonic Cult looks down on humans, but..."

"We're not all idiots!"

Zhao Changsheng's smile deepened, and he exuded an aura of intense confidence.

It was as if Zhao Changsheng had everything firmly under control.

Kong Yunzhang glanced at Zhao Changsheng, then his gaze fell upon Wang Lin, and he sighed softly.

"The first time you came to the Heaven and Earth Dojo, I could tell that you were not someone content with the status quo. Your heart was filled with ambition!"

"This ambition would even make you resort to any means to achieve your goals, which is why I didn't take you as my disciple. I never expected you to be someone from the Heaven Vein."

Wang Lin chuckled, "But isn't this world like this? You use me, I use you. As long as we can reach the end, everything is worth it!"

Kong Yunzhang was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke.

"So, you've made up your minds today to completely cripple this old man?"

Kong Yunzhang's voice was incredibly calm, but when Zhao Changsheng and Wang Lin heard his words, their expressions changed slightly.

A terrifying oppressive force suddenly surged through the air.

It was as if an invisible mountain was slowly pressing down upon them in this small space.

Their bodies trembled slightly, and their faces changed due to this terrifying pressure.

Sweat instantly beaded on their skin and dripped onto the floor, soaking the tiles.

At some point, Kong Yunzhang had already stood up.

With his hands behind his back, his entire demeanor transformed instantly, from that of a frail old man to a being radiating the aura of a grandmaster.

"Let this old man see..."

"In Cloud City, there are ten Shackles and two Body Treasuries. Outside Cloud City, there are two Golden Body powerhouses circling!"

"This lineup... should be enough to easily overrun a provincial capital of Great Xia. I didn't expect you to target me."

"It seems that even though I'm old, I still make your Demonic Cult wary!"

Kong Yunzhang seemed to be muttering to himself, but as his voice rang out, Zhao Changsheng's expression turned extremely ugly.

"You... your cultivation wasn't crippled!!!"

Zhao Changsheng let out a sharp cry.

He looked at Kong Yunzhang in disbelief. Even while facing that terrifying pressure, Zhao Changsheng couldn't help but speak.

"Impossible! You were clearly heavily injured by the combined efforts of three Demon Kings, with demonic energy entering your body. There's no one in all of Great Xia who could resolve such demonic energy invasion. Why can you still sense their presence!!!"

Zhao Changsheng roared, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Kong Yunzhang slowly turned to Zhao Changsheng, a look of disdain appearing in his eyes.

"As expected, you brats from the Demonic Cult are all arrogant. Give you a little leeway, and you think you've accounted for everything."

"Human Vein... as expected, you're all useless!!"

Kong Yunzhang lashed out at Zhao Changsheng without reservation, causing Zhao Changsheng's pale face to flush and then turn ashen.

His expression was extremely unsightly.

"But I'm very curious, you guy from the Heaven Vein, following behind those idiots from the Human Vein, aren't you afraid of exposing your identity and being slapped to death by me?"

Kong Yunzhang looked at Wang Lin with some curiosity.

Although Wang Lin was suppressed by the terrifying pressure and appeared to be in pain, his expression remained as calm as ever.

Upon hearing Kong Yunzhang's words, Wang Lin managed a difficult smile.

"I told you, with my cultivation, I'm not even worthy of carrying your shoes. But..."

Wang Lin slowly raised his head, and as he looked at Kong Yunzhang, his eyes became incredibly strange.

"We from the Heaven Vein are not like those fools from the Human Vein!"

"If I didn't have absolute confidence, how could I possibly expose my Heaven Vein identity?"

Kong Yunzhang's heart stirred slightly, and a sense of unease instantly surfaced.

And it was basically the moment Wang Lin's voice fell.

In a jungle near Cloud City, a black pillar of light shot up into the sky!

An extremely terrifying aura completely rippled through heaven and earth. The pillar of light, carrying an extremely terrifying power, seemed as if it would pierce through the entire sky.

And within that pitch-black pillar of light, an extremely evil aura instantly surged forth.

RUMBLE!!!

In an instant, heaven and earth changed color. The black pillar of light seemed to contain an unparalleled power. The moment that pillar of light reached the sky.

The previously calm sky seemed to have a ferocious opening torn through it, completely revealing itself to the sight of everyone in Cloud City.

"This is..."

Kong Yunzhang's pupils contracted sharply as he looked at the ferocious crack in the sky.

"Gate of Reception, you Heaven Vein... are you courting death!!!"

Kong Yunzhang roared, and an extremely terrifying pressure instantly enveloped the entire world.

Wang Lin's face still carried that peculiar expression.

Facing Kong Yunzhang's roar, Wang Lin let out a strange laugh, instantly knelt on the ground, raised his head, and looked at the ferocious opening in the sky.

His expression also became incredibly fervent at this moment. He clasped his hands together, his gaze devout.

"Heaven Vein disciple Wang Lin... welcomes the Demon King's descent!!"

The roar came from Wang Lin's mouth.

"Senior Sister... do you think this is a coincidence?"

In the rest area, Lan Linglong's soft voice echoed in Kong Xin's ears.

"The Heaven and Earth Dojo is completely empty right now. If the Demonic Cult guys were targeting Teacher... then now..."

Lan Linglong's words weren't even finished when a thin layer of frost instantly covered Kong Xin's face.

"How dare they!!!"

Kong Xin hissed, and a faint aura emerged from her body.

Just this faint aura caused the surrounding space to slightly distort.

At this moment, a storm of thoughts raged within Kong Xin's heart.

For so many years, Kong Xin had always been accustomed to suppressing everything with force. Any eyesore, any conspiracy, in Kong Xin's opinion, could naturally be suppressed with absolute martial power!

And as it happened, this method had indeed been effective.

For so many years, guarding Demon Slaying City, whether it was alien demons or the Demonic Cult, Kong Xin was confident that her power could suppress everything.

As such, she no longer liked to overthink things.

And now...

Listening to Lan Linglong's analysis, although Kong Xin didn't like to overthink, she was by no means stupid. She could naturally see the pros and cons.

Coupled with the special status of her father, the Demonic Cult... might indeed be targeting her father!

For a moment, a cold glint flashed across Kong Xin's eyes.

"No, I have to go back and check. I'll leave Junior Disciple Brother to you!"

Kong Xin's heart was filled with annoyance. After saying that, her figure instantly disappeared from the Martial Arts Training Hall.

Lan Linglong watched this scene and couldn't help but smile helplessly.

Just as she was about to look at Lu Sheng, she felt something and couldn't help but look out the window of the Martial Arts Training Hall.

But when Lan Linglong saw what was outside the window, her usually serene expression instantly became somewhat stiff.

A ferocious crack appeared out of nowhere in the sky.

And beneath that crack, there was a pitch-black pillar of light, carrying an extremely terrifying power, as if it were trying to continuously widen that crack.

"This is..."

Lan Linglong's voice couldn't help but become a little shaky.

At the same time, Kong Xin had just left the Martial Arts Training Hall and was hovering in mid-air, slowly stopping. Her eyes, filled with a cold glint, also looked towards the sky, at the ferocious crack.

A look of anger instantly appeared on her delicate face.

"Gate of Reception, how dare these Demonic Cult scum!!!"

Kong Xin rebuked, took a step with her long legs, and instantly disappeared into the world.

In the sky, the suddenly appearing crack and the extremely thick black pillar of light also instantly attracted the attention of many people in Cloud City.

This included the military and the Martial Alliance, who were investigating the Demonic Cult incident.

When Commander Chen and Alliance Leader Yun looked at the crack and the pillar of light in the sky, their hearts momentarily stopped.
