From Netherworld Prison

But what was going on with Old Demon of Time's Time Divine Fist?!

Everyone found it hard to hide their shock.

Even Hao Dan, the Young Sect Master of the Yin Ghost Sect, and several other Yin Ghost Sect experts found it difficult—impossible—to remain calm.

Wasn't Lu Yiping said to be Su Xiu's nephew?

Yet one of his subordinates knew the Heavenly Elephant Divine Prison Fist and the Time Divine Fist!

Or had Lu Yiping obtained the secret manuals of the Heavenly Elephant Divine Prison Fist and the Time Divine Fist?

Perhaps he had even obtained the cave-abode treasures of Lord Saint Demon and Old Demon of Time!

Thoughts flashed through Hao Dan's mind.

It was no wonder Hao Dan thought so. Saint Demon and Old Demon of Time had long since left this realm. If Lu Yiping had not obtained the treasures from their cave abodes, how could his subordinate know the Heavenly Elephant Divine Prison Fist and the Time Divine Fist?

Everyone slowly returned to their seats, unable to settle down.

Even Big Dipper Great Emperor Zhou Ding Tian could not remain calm.

Like Hao Dan, Zhou Ding Tian and many others wondered whether Lu Yiping had obtained the cave-abode treasures of Saint Demon and Old Demon of Time.

An expert of the Blazing Fire Sect sent a voice transmission to He Zhaorong. "Patriarch, could Lu Yiping have obtained the cave-abode treasures of Saint Demon and Old Demon of Time?"

He Zhaorong's eyes flickered.

Wan Hong, the Young Master of the Wan Family, stared at Zhang Jin as though he wanted to see through him.

At this moment, Zhang Jin had already returned from the Wind Thunder Battle Stage to Lu Yiping's side.

Earlier, when Zhang Jin unleashed the Heavenly Elephant Divine Prison Fist and the Time Divine Fist, the realm he displayed had likewise been the peak of the late Deity Realm.

But was Zhang Jin truly only at the peak of the late Deity Realm?

Recalling the terrifying might of the Heavenly Elephant Divine Prison Fist and the Time Divine Fist, Wan Hong found it difficult to calm down.

The Abyss Demon Sect's Abyss Demon Palm had actually been so fragile before the Heavenly Elephant Divine Prison Fist.

Everyone looked at Lu Yiping, then at Zhang Jin behind him.

Feeling the burning gazes of the crowd around him, Lu Yiping's expression remained unchanged.

Hao Dan sat there with a face as dark as water. Long Tian, the Yin Ghost Sect expert, had already been carried down from the battle stage.

Looking at Long Tian's wretched state, like a dried-up corpse, Hao Dan's expression became even uglier.

He looked at Lu Yiping, his voice icy. "Lu Yiping, shall your subordinate continue playing two moves with an expert from my Yin Ghost Sect?"

"Do you dare?!"

Everyone was stunned.

They had not expected Hao Dan, the Young Sect Master of the Yin Ghost Sect, to dare continue playing?!

After all, just two moves earlier had ruined a peak late-stage Deity Realm expert!

Zhou Ding Tian, Wan Hong, Empress Baihua, Yun Haitian, and the others all turned their gazes toward Lu Yiping.

Hearing this, Lu Yiping poured himself another cup of wine, glanced at the other three experts behind Hao Dan, and smiled. "Sure!"

Hao Dan's gaze fell on Zhao Wen behind Lu Yiping. "This time, let him take the stage!"

Zhang Jin, Wei Bing, and Chen Yongyuan wore strange expressions.

Lu Yiping smiled and said to Zhao Wen, "Go on. Go up and play two moves!"

Hearing this, Hao Dan's facial muscles twitched. Then he rose to his feet and respectfully said to a towering expert behind him, "Uncle Ba Tian, I must trouble you to act!"

Seeing Hao Dan, the Young Sect Master of the Yin Ghost Sect, show such respect, everyone was greatly startled.

Even when Hao Dan had sent Long Tian, a peak late-stage Deity Realm expert, onto the stage earlier, he had not been this respectful.

That towering expert merely nodded at Hao Dan, then soared into the air and landed upon the Wind Thunder Battle Stage almost at the same time as Zhao Wen.

After landing on the Wind Thunder Battle Stage, Ba Tian, the towering Yin Ghost Sect expert, cast Zhao Wen a cold glance and fully released his aura.

Boom!

As Ba Tian released his full aura, the wind and thunder around the Wind Thunder Battle Stage were blasted into surging turbulence. A radiant Divine Spark flew out from within his body.

The moment this Divine Spark emerged, the divine might of a True God swept through the great hall, then the imperial palace, and finally the entire imperial capital.

At that moment, everyone felt that astonishing divine might.

Within the imperial palace, all the experts who had come for the celebration, whether in the inner halls or the square, were utterly shocked.

"A True God expert! Who has enraged a True God expert?!"

"It came from the main hall! What major event has occurred in the main hall?!"

The experts of the empires, imperial dynasties, first-rate sects, and even second-rate sects in the inner halls and square immediately erupted into uproar.

Within the imperial capital, many experts from sinister sects and demon sects who had infiltrated the city were likewise frightened out of their wits.

True God experts rarely acted. Once one reached the True God Realm, one would not easily make a move. Thus, the world rarely saw True God Realm experts in action.

Zhou Ding Tian's expression also changed. "Peak early True God Realm!"

Ba Tian truly was a True God, and a peak early True God Realm expert at that!

The Yin Ghost Sect had actually sent a True God Realm expert to accompany Hao Dan, the Young Sect Master of the Yin Ghost Sect. What was the Yin Ghost Sect trying to do?

Wan Hong, Empress Baihua, and Yun Haitian were equally shocked. Even He Zhaorong, the patriarch of the Blazing Fire Sect, was startled.

Although he too was a True God Realm expert, he was merely at the early True God Realm.

Hao Dan looked at Lu Yiping, cold light flickering in his eyes.

At that moment, Ba Tian suddenly clawed at Zhao Wen.

"Netherworld Prison!"

"Extreme Cold Claw!"

"Break for me!"

A gigantic demonic claw tore through the air.

Purple frost mist actually rose from that enormous demonic claw!

The purple frost seeped into space, and even space itself froze.

Whether in the main hall, the inner halls, the square, or the imperial capital, everyone felt the terrifying chill within the air. It seemed capable of freezing heaven and earth alike.

"What? The Extreme Cold Claw!" He Zhaorong, patriarch of the Blazing Fire Sect, was greatly alarmed.

The Extreme Cold Claw was a supreme art from Netherworld Prison!

Netherworld Prison was the forbidden land of every deity in the entire Hengyuan Plane.

Could Ba Tian, this Yin Ghost Sect expert, be from Netherworld Prison?!

Had the Yin Ghost Sect already colluded with Netherworld Prison?

Zhou Ding Tian, Wan Hong, Yun Haitian, and every expert in the great hall revealed intense wariness in their eyes.

The Extreme Cold Claw tore through space. Everywhere it passed, all the wind and thunder of the Wind Thunder Battle Stage froze solid.

Yet Lu Yiping remained calm.

As the Extreme Cold Claw came crashing down, Zhao Wen, who had remained motionless on the stage all this while, raised his hand.
