Not a Match in a Single Exchange

Many cultivators at the Dao Integration Realm posed a challenge to the Azure Cloud Sect, and then Azure Cloud Master presented them with another challenge!

No cultivator above the Primordial Spirit Realm would willingly hand over their Primordial Spirit Restriction to someone else.

This puts one's life in the hands of another's decision; who would agree to such a thing?

"This must be Fellow Daoist Azure Cloud Sect, the School Leader Azure Cloud Master, right?" The Daoist looked at Azure Cloud Master. "Fellow Daoist's request is excessive; we cannot agree to it."

Azure Cloud Master sneered, "Your demands aren't excessive?"

I know what you're after; you're after our Immortal Artifact, aren't you?

I promise you, as long as you join the Azure Cloud Sect and hand over your Primordial Spirit Restriction to me, I will give you control of the Immortal Artifact. How about it?

Haven't I been more magnanimous than that?

Or were you deliberately misleading my disciple before I came out?

The Dao Integration Realm in red robes sneered, "Azure Cloud Master, I respect you as the Azure Cloud Sect School Leader, but in reality, you are merely a junior. I am over 1,300 years old, the same generation as your master. How dare you make such a request of me?"

Tell me yourself, would you entrust your life and death to someone else?

Azure Cloud Master shouted angrily, "Shut up, you old fool! How dare you mention my master?"

He's just an old fool, a mediocre person who's accomplished nothing in his life. What has he achieved?

My master was a towering figure who dedicated his life to suppressing countless Demon Lords. How dare you compare yourself to him?

Enraged by Azure Cloud Master's reprimand, the red-robed Dao Integration Realm cultivator roared, "Junior, how dare you disrespect me?"

Azure Cloud Master sneered, "Do you have anything respectable about you? Or rather, do you all have anything respectable about you?"

You couldn't possibly be unaware of the danger posed by so many Devil Race.

But you turn a blind eye!

What's even worse is that not only did you not help us, you even plotted against our Azure Cloud Sect behind our backs.

This time we truly couldn't hold out any longer and were preparing to retreat when you finally agreed to offer some resources so we could continue guarding these powerful Devil Race. Even so, you still put on this condescending attitude—who are you trying to fool?

They want to join my Azure Cloud Sect to help us guard this place?

I'm already willing to give up the Immortal Artifact, so why won't you hand over the Primordial Spirit Restriction?

As for your life and death...

At this point, Azure Cloud Master grinned maliciously. "If I didn't want to completely turn against you, killing you would be as easy as crushing a chicken!"

He initially only intended to pretend, but the more he talked, the angrier he became.

He's been in the Azure Cloud Sect for over nine hundred years!

He witnessed firsthand the deaths of countless predecessors, the decline of the Azure Cloud Sect, and the true colors of these major sects. These scenes constantly assaulted him.

Therefore, he is now truly furious.

The red-robed Dao Integration Realm grinned maliciously, "So, you want to fight us?"

"Hehe!"

Azure Cloud Master let out a cold laugh, and the surrounding space instantly changed. Everyone found that the people around them had disappeared, and they were now in a pitch-black starry sky.

Around them, there was no longer any sign of heaven and earth, not even a trace of the Laws of Heaven and Earth.

Each Dao Integration Realm cultivator was terrified and hurriedly activated their own Power of the Great Dao to escape this space.

They knew very well that they had been brought into Azure Cloud Master's Dao Domain, and if they didn't escape soon, they would all be in danger.

However, no matter which direction they fled in, they were all alone in the entire space, and they never saw any other companions again.

At this moment, everyone was even more shocked. They never expected that Azure Cloud Master's strength had reached such a level.

Suddenly, the sky brightened, and they saw the light of day again, finding themselves still inside the Azure Cloud Great Hall.

However, Azure Cloud Master had already grabbed the red-robed Dao Integration Realm by the neck with one hand, coldly staring at the crowd.

"Didn't Tan Qiushui tell you not to fight me lightly?" Azure Cloud Master looked at the crowd with disdain. "Forty or fifty years ago, I gave him a chance and let him show off a few moves. Didn't that give you more confidence?"

Many Dao Integration Realm stared at Azure Cloud Master in disbelief, instinctively revealing all sorts of protective Law Treasure as they wary of Azure Cloud Master.

The red-robed Dao Integration Realm, who had been grabbed by Azure Cloud Master, was completely incredulous at what he was seeing. He asked incredulously, "When did you acquire such strength? In just a few hundred years, you've cultivated to this level?"

Azure Cloud Master sneered, "Do you know who my opponents have been over the past few hundred years?"

Three hundred years ago, he took over the Azure Sky Ultimate Cloud Formation and oversaw the powerful Devil Race.

In fact, he had been involved in this matter for hundreds of years before this.

Just how terrifying were those powerful Devil Race who were suppressed? You can imagine it by looking at the decline of the Azure Cloud Sect over the past thousand years.

In other words, Azure Cloud Master's suppression of those Devil Race for the past three hundred years has been essentially a battle against those Demon Lords in a different way!

The only difference is that the Azure Sky Ultimate Cloud Formation separates them.

Faced with this situation, Azure Cloud Master could only try his best to improve himself and suppress those Demon Lords.

Under constant pressure, Azure Cloud Master became who he is today!

"Get out!" Azure Cloud Master threw aside the red-robed Dao Integration Realm and said coldly, "Our Azure Cloud Sect does not accept charity. Take your things and get out of here! In three months, you'll be preparing to face those Demon Lords... Oh, there aren't three months left, you only have two months to prepare!"

"Wait!" the Daoist priest hurriedly shouted, "Fellow Daoist Azure Cloud Sect, don't act rashly!"

"Yes, yes, please don't act impulsively, we can talk this over!"

After discovering Azure Cloud Master's terrifying strength, they immediately changed their attitude.

First of all, since they couldn't defeat Azure Cloud Master, their plans couldn't proceed. To defeat Azure Cloud Master, they would probably have to go back and ask the Tribulation Transcendence Realm Ancestor for help.

But when a real fight broke out, those Demon Lord came out...

These venerable ancestors who Tribulation Transcendence Realm represent the greatest foundation of each sect. If they are damaged, their sects will likely suffer a severe decline.

Another point is that Azure Cloud Master, with his terrifying strength, still struggled so much to suppress the Demon Lord, then how terrifying were these Demon Lords?

So many Demon Lords were released...

"We absolutely have no other intentions; we are merely offering some compensation for the losses suffered by the Azure Cloud Sect over the years!" said the Dao Integration Realm from the Langya Sacred Land with a forced smile. "This is just a small token of our appreciation, so please, Fellow Daoist Azure Cloud Sect, do not act impulsively. Alternatively, if you have other conditions, we can discuss them."

Azure Cloud Master said calmly, "From beginning to end, it wasn't us who wanted your resources; you offered them to us willingly. You need to understand that!"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Everyone nodded, smiling outwardly, but cursing inwardly.

They were clearly extorting them, yet they claimed it was a voluntary gift from them...

However, they could not deny that the Azure Cloud Sect had never "demanded resources" from beginning to end; that was a fact!

Azure Cloud Master said calmly, "I'm busy suppressing the Demon Lord. Right now, my disciple is handling all the affairs of the Azure Cloud Sect. You can talk to him. But if anyone bullies my disciple, don't blame me for being impolite."

After saying that, he left.

The other Dao Integration Realm suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

They're under a lot of pressure facing Azure Cloud Master!

It's much easier to talk to Zhang Yang!
