The Sun Moon Divine Cult is a Supreme Dao Holy Land, with an Emperor Weapon suppressing its fortune.
Even on normal days, a special defensive formation envelops the entire Holy Land, allowing exit but not entry!
BOOM!
BANG!
In the high sky, an elder falling like a meteor collided with the protective shield, instantly bouncing back like a ball.
"Pfft!"
The immense impact force caused the elder to spit out a large mouthful of blood. His face was ashen, and he gritted his teeth.
"Who...who is it!"
The elder had one foot already in the Sage realm; even dismemberment wouldn't kill him easily.
Though severely injured now, he was more angered than anything.
He, the dignified Old Ancestor of the Supreme Dao Holy Land, who had lived for thousands of years, was taken down with just three slaps!
What's more, he didn't even know who his opponent was!
Most crucially, the opponent had dragged him back to the Sun Moon Divine Cult and insulted him in front of everyone.
This was the most humiliating part!
The massive impact sound reverberated throughout the Holy Land.
Many disciples emerged from their cultivation spots, looking up at the sky with confused expressions.
"Who is that?"
"To dare smash their head against the Supreme Dao Holy Land's defensive formation in broad daylight, that's one tough person!"
"This person wouldn't crash into our sect's defensive formation for no reason. Could it be... they intend to attack our sect?"
"Impossible! Our Sun Moon Divine Cult possesses an Emperor Weapon; who would be so audacious?"
Suddenly, a disciple with exceptionally keen eyesight noticed the crescent moon pattern on the elder's forehead, his pupils widening in shock!
He shouted loudly, "Look quickly, this person has the same mark on his forehead as the Moon Yin Right Emissary!"
"Could he be the Moon Yin Right Emissary?"
Below the Sun Moon Divine Cult's Sect Master, apart from the Great Elder who led the Elders, the highest-ranking figures were the Sun Yang Left Emissary and the Moon Yin Right Emissary!
These two great emissaries, like the position of Sect Master, were passed down through generations; each Sect Master had their own Sun and Moon Left and Right Emissaries!
Another disciple also noticed this characteristic and said, "No, the Moon Yin Right Emissary is a woman, but this old man is clearly a man..."
"He... must be some Moon Yin Right Emissary Old Ancestor from our sect's history!"
As he spoke, he was shocked by his own guess and exchanged a glance with another person.
If it truly was a past Moon Yin Right Emissary, then the elder crashing into the Sun Moon Divine Cult's defensive formation now couldn't be without reason.
Subsequently, they also noticed the elder's bloody injuries.
Finally realizing that the situation was not simple.
"What lowly scoundrel dares to injure our sect's ancestor!"
A furious roar, like divine thunder from the nine heavens, followed by a figure rushing out of the Sun Moon Divine Cult, heading straight for the elder in the sky.
He raised his hand to grab the elder, intending to save him!
"It's the Great Elder!" a disciple exclaimed, their face filled with excitement.
The Great Elder was a late-stage Lin Dao Realm expert, his strength unfathomable!
There were rumors that the Great Elder was on the verge of taking that final step, achieving the pinnacle of the Lin Dao Realm!
The Great Elder was a middle-aged man, clad in silver robes, exuding an imposing aura. He was tall, with a face that commanded respect even without anger, and with every movement, the very essence of heaven and earth seemed to submit!
His hand expanded continuously in the air, reaching for the Moon Yin Right Emissary!
Suddenly.
Just as the Great Elder was about to grasp the Moon Yin Right Emissary, a man in black robes suddenly appeared. With a wave of his hand, he repelled the Great Elder.
The Great Elder retreated seven steps in mid-air. His previously calm expression instantly rippled.
He suppressed the surge of blood in his chest and fixed his gaze on the black-robed man who had attacked.
The black-robed man was tall and broad-shouldered, his hair casually loose, exuding an untamed aura.
Just standing there, it seemed as if heaven and earth revolved around him, a faint but palpable pressure making the Great Elder feel as if he were facing a formidable enemy.
He's an expert!
The black-robed man wore a bronze mask that possessed a special enchantment, obscuring his features and making him impossible to discern. The man grabbed one of the Moon Yin Right Emissary's legs, dragging him like a dead dog, and said in a hoarse voice:
"Want him? Bring money!"
Bring money to ransom him!
Upon hearing this, the Great Elder's eyes narrowed, and his aura surged forth like a raging river. He attacked directly!
He was the Great Elder of the Supreme Dao Holy Land, a being second to none, above tens of thousands of people. How could he allow himself to be manipulated so easily!
And right at his doorstep!
However, the Great Elder, who attacked in an instant, was no fool. The opponent had managed to gravely injure the Moon Yin Right Emissary, so their strength must be terrifying. He likely wouldn't be a match for them.
But this was above the Sun Moon Divine Cult, and the entire Holy Land was his backing!
He knew that all the high-ranking officials of the Sun Moon Divine Cult had already made secret preparations, ready to deliver a fatal blow to the black-robed man at any moment!
Therefore, he struck decisively!
After all, with his cultivation, he shouldn't be completely defenseless!
However...
Pfft!
The black-robed man casually reached out and grasped at the Great Elder. Instantly, the Great Elder cried out to the heavens, his cast Dao techniques vanishing automatically, his pores bleeding.
Crack!
As the black-robed man continued to tighten his grip, the Great Elder's bones shattered and broke.
The ear-splitting sound of bones breaking made the Sun Moon Divine Cult disciples below break out in cold sweats, their hair standing on end!
"Ah!"
The Great Elder screamed, struggling to look at the black-robed man, disbelief churning within him. He was being toyed with like a child in the palm of his hand!
He was at the ninth layer of the Lin Dao Realm!
"I don't believe it!"
The Great Elder roared, his eyes wide. He pointed his fingers, and a pagoda flew out from his Purple Mansion Grotto-Heaven.
The pagoda had nine stories, was golden-gray, and ancient in style. It grew larger in the air.
At the very bottom of the pagoda was a portal. Now, the portal opened, and a massive spatial Dao technique unleashed a suction force, pulling at the black-robed man's body.
But even under the suppression of the powerful Magic Weapon, the black-robed man remained as still as a mountain.
With one hand holding the Moon Yin Right Emissary and the other grasping at the Great Elder, his body stood straight, completely unfazed!
"Impossible!"
The Great Elder cried out, his handsome face contorted in disbelief. This pagoda was a Sage-grade Magic Weapon, yet it couldn't even budge the black-robed man!
What was his cultivation level?
Could it be...
He had a terrifying suspicion.
"How dare you!"
Just as the Great Elder was exhausting all his strength and unable to move the black-robed man.
The Void around the three was suddenly sealed. A purple-gold great bell shattered space and burst forth from the Void.
Dong!
Dong!
Dong!
The bell waves sounded like thunder, echoing through the heavens and the earth. The immense sound waves seemed to solidify, transforming into countless musical notes that formed a trapping formation, confining the black-robed man within.
Then, dozens of Sun Moon Divine Cult experts emerged from the surrounding Void. Among them was the Sun Moon Cult Master, clad in black and white robes.
The purple-gold great bell was his Magic Weapon!
"Who are you?"
"How dare you cause trouble at our doorstep?"
The Sun Moon Cult Master, dressed in black and white robes, had a cold expression. He was fully focused on controlling the great bell and the trapping formation, preventing the black-robed man from breaking free.
"Heh heh."
The black-robed man suddenly chuckled. His laughter, combined with his bronze mask, was somewhat chilling. He looked at the Sun Moon Cult Master and said:
"You are the Sun Moon Cult Master? I grew up listening to your legends as a child. Seeing you now, I realize it was all in vain, a complete misdirection!"
"At such an age, with such cultivation, and as the master of a Holy Land with vast resources, you are merely a Half-Saint who has only stepped into the Sacred Heart Stage!"
After reaching the perfection of the Lin Dao Realm, one could not directly break through to become a Sage.
Between them lay the three transformations of the Sacred Heart, Sacred Body, and Sacred Law.
Commonly known as the Three Transformations of a Sage!
Lin Dao Realm experts who achieved these three transformations were also called Half-Saints!
