A day passed in the blink of an eye. Inside the Canglun Kingdom, an extremely terrifying aura erupted, and the Dark Moon Cult disciples who had been guarding outside revealed a hint of surprise in their eyes.
The Dark Moon Cult elder slowly opened his eyes, and in that instant, his eyes became extremely terrifying, flashing with a cold light that inspired fear.
He said calmly, "Someone come here!"
As soon as the voice fell, a disciple of the Dark Moon Cult appeared and immediately bowed, saying, "This disciple congratulates Elder on reaching the Great Sage realm. From now on, our Dark Moon Cult can roam freely in the Southern Wasteland."
The elder of the Dark Moon Cult, his face hidden beneath his black robes, momentarily flashed a smug expression, but he quickly concealed it, saying calmly, "So far, has any news come back from the Wilderness Mountain Range?"
The moment the words left his lips, the disciple, seemingly anticipating the question, hurriedly replied, "Reporting to the elder, no news has come back from the Southern Desolation Mountain Range Southern Desolation Mountain Range. I sent some assassins deep into the Southern Desolation Mountain Range, and they reported back that no fierce battles have occurred there so far."
"There's nothing unusual on either side."
"We know nothing. Is the elder going to take action against Heavenly Gate?"
Upon hearing this, the elder of the Dark Moon Cult's lips curled into a mocking smile. He had originally planned to go personally after reaching the Saint Realm, but suddenly felt that a mere small force in the Southern Desolation Mountain Range wasn't worthy of his personal attention. He then said disdainfully, "Originally, I wanted to act personally, but I believe that a mere Heavenly Gate isn't worthy of my intervention, even at the Saint Realm. You go yourself!"
"Your cultivation level is not weak now either. As Dao Lord, I believe you have the strength and ability to resolve the Heavenly Gate issue."
"Of course, Heavenly Gate was able to quietly eliminate ten experts at the Dharma Heaven and Earth. Moreover, you know very well that the Dharma Heaven and Earth of my Dark Moon Cult are not comparable to those Rogue Cultivator. Since the other party was able to do this, their strength must not be weak. In addition to you, lead three more Dao Lord to go."
"This elder does not believe that with so many powerful figures gathered, Heavenly Gate can still stir up trouble."
The disciple kneeling in the main hall, upon hearing the order, immediately replied, "This disciple will absolutely not fail the elder's trust and will definitely bring Chen Hao back. As for Heavenly Gate, those who dare to offend my Dark Moon Cult will be wiped out, not even a chicken or a dog."
After speaking, he immediately and respectfully withdrew from the main hall.
Soon, the powerful members of the Dark Moon Cult in the capital city instantly soared into the Space Breaking and headed towards the Southern Desolation Mountain Range.
Inside the Heavenly Gate, Chen Hao was fighting a powerful expert from the Dark Moon Sect who possessed the Heavenly Manifestation Technique. In that instant, Chen Hao's eyes became extremely sharp. Facing the unparalleled power of the Heavenly Manifestation Technique expert, Chen Hao's gaze was piercingly intense.
The next moment, an extremely terrifying sword strike was unleashed, its light illuminating the void.
" Slay All Living Beings with One Sword!"
That blinding sword light was incredibly dazzling in that instant. Even the opponent, who possessed the cultivation of the Dharma Heaven and Earth, was momentarily stunned in that critical moment.
However, in that moment of distraction, a cold sword light flashed, and the next instant, a head slowly rolled off.
Even in death, his eyes remained open and unclosed.
" Chen Hao, how dare you! You actually dared to kill a core disciple of my Dark Moon Cult!"
The remaining nine people, though imprisoned by the powerful figures within the Heavenly Gate, revealed an extremely cold glint in their eyes at this moment.
"So what if I killed your Dark Moon Cult disciples? Your Dark Moon Cult has committed countless evil deeds, including poisoning and killing my father. The hatred for the murder of my father is irreconcilable!"
"Today, I, Chen Hao, am using one of your Dark Moon Cult's experts to reach the realm of Dharma Heaven and Earth. What's wrong with that?"
"Soon, I will not only kill you, but also wipe out all your Dark Moon Cult's branches in the Southern Wasteland Wilderness."
Chen Hao showed no fear; instead, a cold glint appeared in his eyes.
"That's ambitious!"
"As expected of royalty, they dare to declare war on my Dark Moon Cult."
However, the instant Chen Hao finished speaking, a mocking voice echoed from the void.
At that instant, Daoist Tianxuan within the Heavenly Gate also appeared, a solemn expression appearing in his eyes, for Daoist Tianxuan had already sensed that the strength of the powerful figure who had arrived had reached the Dao Lord Realm.
Other powerful figures also appeared in an instant, their faces showing solemnity. They had never expected that the Dark Moon Cult would be so terrifying, with three incredibly powerful Dao Lord arriving on this day.
The leading man, shrouded in a black robe, showed a hint of surprise upon seeing Daoist Tianxuan appear, but his shock was brief. He then curled his lips into a mocking smile and said in a sarcastic tone, "No wonder the Heavenly Gate caused my Dark Moon Cult's plans to fail twice in a row; it turns out they have Dao Lord Realm expert overseeing things."
"However, the Dark Moon Cult is not something that can be hindered by just any Tom, Dick, or Harry."
"What is your name? Tell me your name."
"I, Yang Qilong, never kill nameless nobodies!"
The leader of the Dark Moon Cult was Yang Qilong, a mid-stage Dao Lord level expert, incredibly powerful and ruthless.
" Yang Qilong, leader of the Dark Moon Cult's Southern Wasteland Canglong Kingdom branch."
Upon hearing Yang Qilong's words, Chen Hao's body trembled uncontrollably. Chen Hao had never met Yang Qilong before, but Chen Hao had often heard about Yang Qilong's ruthless and vicious methods.
When Yang Qilong takes action, he always eliminates all traces, leaving no one alive.
Chen Hao immediately looked at Daoist Tianxuan and said solemnly, "Vice Sect Master, this person is Yang Qilong, the branch leader of the Canglun Kingdom. He is ruthless and vicious, and every time he appears, he leaves no one alive. Moreover, his cultivation is extremely powerful, reaching the level of Dao Lord."
"Moreover, the two people beside him are also incredibly powerful, perhaps even reaching the level of Dao Lord. Heavenly Gate is invincible against them."
"I will leave with the Dark Moon Cult. Perhaps this is fate. Thank you all for your protection these past few days."
Facing the incomparably powerful Dao Lord, Chen Hao was filled with rage, but Chen Hao very clear that if Daoist Tianxuan resisted, Heavenly Gate would be slaughtered by the enemy.
" Yang Qilong, kill me or torture me, it's all up to you. I'll leave with you. Isn't your purpose to open the tomb of my Canglun royal family?"
"If you spare Heavenly Gate, I am willing to go with you and help you open the tomb. Otherwise, even if it means my blood is spilled, I, Chen Hao, will absolutely not help you open the tomb!"
" Heavenly Gate took me in and allowed me to live a few more days. I don't want anything to happen to them!"
In that instant, Chen Hao's sharp gaze fell upon Yang Qilong and the others, and he spoke each word clearly. At the same time, he drew his longsword and held it horizontally in front of his neck.
Although Yang Qilong looked down on Chen Hao, seeing Chen Hao as nothing more than an ant, Yang Qilong knew very well that if Chen Hao really died here, they would have no way to open the tomb. The royal family of the Canglun Kingdom had already been slaughtered by them, and Chen Hao was the last of the bloodline. The royal tomb could only be opened by the bloodline of the Chen Clan.
Yang Qilong had always detested being forced, but at this moment, Yang Qilong was acutely aware of Chen Hao's crucial importance to the Dark Moon Cult's plan. So, even with a chilling killing intent flashing in his eyes, he coldly said, " Chen Hao, I didn't expect you to be a grateful person. Since that's the case, I'll agree to your conditions. But I'm not stupid. You can let them go, but only after you open the tomb."
Upon hearing the other party's words, Chen Hao's expression turned slightly cold. " Yang Qilong, I'm not negotiating with you, I'm giving you an order. If you want to open the tomb, you must immediately release everyone inside the Heavenly Gate."
Yang Qilong laughed for a moment, ignoring the blood trickling from Chen Hao's neck, and said coldly, " Chen Hao, don't push your luck. If I let them go and you commit suicide, wouldn't I have gained nothing?"
"You have no way out now. Obediently come with me, and I will let them go. I always keep my word."
As Yang Qilong's voice fell, the two men behind Yang Qilong instantly wore mocking expressions, completely disregarding Chen Hao's words.
After hearing what the other party said, Chen Hao realized that his plan was unlikely to succeed. Originally, Chen Hao's plan was to make the powerful people in Heavenly Gate leave, commit suicide to atone for his sins, and never let the Dark Moon Cult Sect open the royal tomb.
However, Chen Hao Chen Hao very clear that he had no choice at the moment, and in his eyes nothing was more important than the debt of saving his life.
So at this moment, Chen Hao slowly lowered the long sword in his hand, somewhat desperate, and looked at Yang Qilong in the void, saying with murderous intent, " Yang Qilong, I hope you keep your word, otherwise I will haunt you even as a ghost."
As the cold voice fell, Chen Hao was about to walk towards Yang Qilong.
However, just as Chen Hao lifted his leg, a large hand landed on Chen Hao shoulder. Daoist Tianxuan had remained silent until now, wanting to see how Chen Hao would choose. Chen Hao's choice greatly pleased Daoist Tianxuan.
I think Li Yixi made the right choice and didn't misjudge the person. This person is indeed qualified to inherit Li Yixi's legacy. His character and virtue are impeccable, and his aptitude is also quite good.
Daoist Tianxuan looked at Chen Hao and laughed, "Don't pay them any attention. If they imprison you and prevent you from committing suicide, do you think they will let us go?"
"This is reality, you don't need to argue!"
"You know Yang Qilong is ruthless. Do you believe his lies?"
"He probably never even believed his own words."
"Moreover, entrusting your life and death to others is an extremely foolish thing to do. You are a sword cultivator who has received the sect leader's Dao of the Sword inheritance, so you must know what a sword cultivator is. A sword cultivator would rather break than bend, otherwise your Invincible spirit will be thwarted."
As soon as the voice fell, Daoist Tianxuan slowly raised his head, his icy gaze fixed on Yang Qilong in the void.
He said coldly, " The Dark Moon Cult is truly arrogant. Do you really think the Dark Moon Cult Invincible?"
"The three of you are not qualified to destroy my Heavenly Gate."
In that instant, Daoist Tianxuan's gaze became exceptionally sharp.
However, upon hearing Daoist Tianxuan's words, Yang Qilong laughed for a moment, a mocking smile appearing on his lips, "Does your Heavenly Gate still intend to Undying enemy of my Dark Moon Cult?"
The two Dark Moon Cult experts beside Yang Qilong also sneered at this moment. From beginning to end, they had never taken the people of Heavenly Gate seriously. However, they never expected that although the people in Heavenly Gate were not very strong at present, they were not afraid of death. Otherwise, they would not have become overlords in the Ten Thousand Races Ancient Realm.
Daoist Tianxuan's smile remained unchanged as he looked at Yang Qilong and said, "Sect Leader Yang is right. My Heavenly Gate truly has no intention of engaging in Undying -death struggle with the Dark Moon Cult."
Upon hearing this, Yang Qilong's mocking expression deepened, thinking that Daoist Tianxuan and his ilk were ultimately cowards who feared death. However, the next moment, Daoist Tianxuan's words made Yang Qilong's face turn extremely ugly, and his eyes flashed with a chilling killing intent.
Daoist Tianxuan glanced at the void and said with a smile, "We have no intention of fighting Undying the death with the Dark Moon Cult, not out of fear, but because your Dark Moon Cult is simply not worthy."
As soon as Tianxuan Daoist finished speaking, the Giant Emperor and other beings not far away sneered. The next moment, the Giant Emperor took a step forward, and his terrifying divine power erupted. The nine Dark Moon Sect Dharma Heaven and Earth experts who had been imprisoned thought that they could finally break free today, but they did not expect that what awaited them was death.
Before Yang Qilong, the nine core disciples of the Dharma Heaven and Earth instantly turned into blood mist, leaving no trace of their bodies.
The Giant Emperor sneered, "So the Dark Moon Cult members are just flesh and blood after all. I thought they were Undying Gods and Devils, but they can be destroyed with a wave of their hand."
Yang Qilong saw the nine Dharma Heaven and Earth beings die before his eyes. His face was already extremely ugly, and when he heard the Giant Emperor's provocative voice, he became even more furious.
"Yeah?"
"Then I'd like to see what qualifications and strength your Heavenly Gate has to say that."
Do you really think that the Dark Moon Cult's two consecutive defeats were only suffered by the three of us?
"To obstruct the Dark Moon Cult's plans is like an egg hitting a rock. If you want to die, then so be it. Show yourselves."
With a wave of his hand, Yang Qilong conjured dozens of figures in the void. All of them were shrouded in black robes and exuded an extremely cold killing intent. Although their strength was only at the Dharma Heaven and Earth, they still made people frown because they carried an extremely strong bloody smell.
Clearly, these beings are all fearless and ruthless Death Servants.
These people were born to kill, and some of them were even puppets. It's unbelievable that even after their deaths, the Dark Moon Cult didn't give up on them, but instead turned them into puppets. Such methods are truly chilling.
An extremely terrifying pressure completely enveloped the entire Heavenly Gate in that instant.
"How are things now?"
What exactly gives Heavenly Gate its confidence?
Yang Qilong's face was full of mockery.
