Starting as the First Seat, Signing In for the Ultimate Emperor Armament!

Mu Qiuxue kept it firmly in mind.

The entrance of Backer Sect.

A person suddenly appeared. This person was clad in black chainmail, tall and imposing, with a stern and majestic face. His eyes exuded authority even without anger.

It was the Lord of Nether Ghost Palace, Nether Ghost Master!

Elder Shi, who was punished by Tianji Zhenren, was still miserably on duty.

It was his loose lips that had spread the news of Tianji Zhenren being violated, making it common knowledge throughout Backer Sect and causing Tianji Zhenren to lose face.

Before Tianji Zhenren left, he had punished Elder Shi to guard the sect for a year as penance and reflection!

However, just guarding the gate was quite a comfortable life.

But upon seeing Nether Ghost Master.

Elder Shi's expression changed drastically. He quickly stood up, his expression tense, and said, "I wonder what brings Senior Nether Ghost Master to Backer Sect? May I ask the reason for your visit?"

Nether Ghost Master clasped his hands behind his back and snorted, "Is this how your Backer Sect treats guests? Is my identity not enough for me to be invited in for a cup of tea?"

"It is enough."

With the sect currently at its most vulnerable, Elder Shi dared not be careless.

Nether Ghost Master was a treacherous and ruthless individual, not a righteous person. Inviting him into Backer Sect without knowing the reason for his sudden visit would be like letting a wolf into the house!

"But you've suddenly arrived, so you must have a reason, right? After all, you know the relationship between Backer Sect and Nether Ghost Palace," Elder Shi said with a forced smile.

Then, he said to a nearby disciple, "Go invite Xiaxuan Zhenren and Daoyuan Zhenren. Tell them Nether Ghost Master has arrived unexpectedly."

Nether Ghost Master ignored the disciple who went to deliver the message and forced out an ugly smile, "Indeed, Nether Ghost Palace and Backer Sect have been at odds for more than a day..."

"So... today, this matter should be settled!"

He then extended the hand that was behind his back, grabbed Elder Shi by the neck, and lifted him up, chuckling coldly:

"A mere early-stage Spirit Infant Realm cultivator dares to block my path!"

Chapter Sixteen: That was quite the performance earlier

Boom!

A powerful force struck Elder Shi's abdomen.

"Pfft!"

Elder Shi vomited blood, like a kite with a broken string, and fell far away, unable to get up for a moment.

He struggled to lift his head, his face contorted in pain, and roared, "Enemy attack!"

The enormous sound instantly echoed throughout Backer Sect!

Enemy attack!

All disciples, and even elders, rushed towards the entrance of Backer Sect like madmen.

They carried their weapons, showing no fear.

When the sect was in danger, they would defend it with their lives!

"Heh heh, with Yun Tian Zhenren absent and Xuanhe Daoren absent, what can you use to fight me?"

Xuanhe Daoren was the overt ancestor of Backer Sect, the master of Yun Tian Zhenren, and the previous sect leader of Backer Sect!

He was a cultivator at the Approaching Dao Realm!

Nether Ghost Master swaggered into Backer Sect, hovering in the air. He took a deep breath of spiritual energy, his expression one of contentment.

"From today onwards, Backer Sect will be mine to control!"

"What arrogance!"

An elder from Backer Peak, who was quite old, stepped forward and sneered, "Do you really think you alone can contend against the entire Backer Sect?"

"That's right, even if you are the lord of a sect, you can't achieve such a feat!"

"How ridiculous! You are too arrogant!"

"Absurd!"

The elders were furious, their eyes wide and bulging, completely surrounding Nether Ghost Master.

Counting them, there were over forty elders.

The lowest among them were early-stage Spirit Infant Realm cultivators!

Nether Ghost Master clicked his tongue in amazement as he scanned the crowd.

"I must admit, Backer Sect's strength has indeed grown considerably in recent years."

"Even after taking so many powerful cultivators away, there are still so many Spirit Infant Realm experts within the sect!"

He was secretly pleased. Fortunately, Nether Ghost Palace had made its move early. Otherwise, in another hundred years, they might no longer be a match for Backer Sect!

"Damn it, this guy isn't nervous at all, as if he doesn't even put the elders in his eyes."

Many disciples, weapons in hand, surrounded the perimeter, warily staring at Nether Ghost Master.

Seeing him stroll as if he were in his own garden, they were instantly infuriated.

Some hot-tempered Limitless Peak disciples immediately started cursing Nether Ghost Master's ancestors.

"Damn it! If only our Sect Master were still here, he wouldn't be able to be this presumptuous."

"This is outrageous! I only regret that my strength is insufficient to eliminate this villain!"

Some disciples beat their chests and stamped their feet, lamenting their lack of power, unable to join the elders' battle!

"Nether Ghost Master, aren't you being too presumptuous?"

Xiaxuan Zhenren arrived, holding a fiery red divine whip, a Mystic Tool of the Approaching Dao Realm level, passed down by her master, possessing immense power!

"Heh heh, after so many years, Xiaxuan Zhenren's beauty surpasses even the past?"

Nether Ghost Master's stiff face broke into a smile as he looked Mu Qiuxue up and down, his eyes filled with lewdness. He said, "I wonder, can I have the honor of your company, to fulfill my wish?"

Such blasphemous words caused everyone to explode, angrily pointing at Nether Ghost Master and cursing him.

"Die!"

An elder, wielding a treasure sword Mystic Tool of the Spirit Infant Realm level, angrily unleashed a sword strike.

Instantly, a blinding sword light appeared in the sky and earth.

The sword light stretched for ten thousand meters, sword energy roaring, containing the will of the sword.

"A mere trick."

Nether Ghost Master waved his hand and crushed the sword energy, flicking his finger. Instantly, the attacking elder was sent flying far away, spitting blood and his aura weak!

The difference in cultivation was too great!

"This is too much bullying!"

Xiaxuan Zhenren unleashed the fiery red divine whip, lashing out at Nether Ghost Master's body.

Nether Ghost Master neither dodged nor avoided, raising his hand to grab the divine whip. No matter how hard Xiaxuan Zhenren pulled, she couldn't break free!

"Now you know the gap in strength?" Nether Ghost Master said disdainfully, pulling the divine whip and dragging Xiaxuan Zhenren's body towards him.

"Do you really think you can disregard the entire Backer Sect by yourself?"

"Do you think the Backer Sect has no one?"

Many elders joined forces, unleashing powerful spells that covered the sky and earth, pressing down on Nether Ghost Master.

Even with Nether Ghost Master's cultivation, it would be impossible to split his attention to counter the combined attack of over forty Spirit Infant Realm experts while dealing with Xiaxuan Zhenren!

He quickly let go of the divine whip, allowing Xiaxuan Zhenren to break free.

Then, he pushed forward with both hands, his aura radiating intensely, drawing upon the great Dao of heaven and earth, summoning divine lightning that instantly shattered the elders' spells!

"Pfft!"

Some elders with lower cultivation realms were immediately injured by the backlash, spitting blood.

But no one retreated; they all stared fixedly at Nether Ghost Master.

They swore to live and die with the sect!

"Do you know why you can't break through to the Celestial Realm?"

Nether Ghost Master surveyed everyone. "It's not because of talent, but only because you are ignorant!"

"You don't know what a Celestial Being is!"

"Now, I will tell you what a Celestial Being is!"
