A Miscalculation, Late at Night
After he finished speaking, the square fell silent.
No one spoke; everyone was observing Li Yunjing's reaction.
The Old Man Wandu looked at Li Yunjing and a smug smile appeared on his face.
He thought that his words would give Li Yunjing a hard time and embarrass him in front of everyone.
But to his surprise, Li Yunjing simply smiled faintly and said, "Myriad Poison Sect Master, have you finished speaking?"
The Old Man Wandu paused for a moment, then said, "Have you finished speaking? What, young friend, do you have any different opinions?"
Li Yunjing stood up, his gaze sweeping over the crowd below, and slowly said, "I have no objections. I just want to tell everyone that the rule of the Holy Domain is utterly corrupt. The three Dao Lords are tyrannical and ruthless, committing all sorts of evil deeds. Such a rule should have been overthrown long ago."
"I, Li Yunjing, here today tell you that I am determined to kill the three Dao Lords. I will not let any of them live. The entire Primordial Beginning Dao Realm will be conquered by my Luozhen Sect."
Anyone willing to follow my Luozhen Sect will never be treated unfairly by my Luozhen Sect.
If anyone wants to follow the Holy Domain and oppose me, then the fate of the three leaders of the Myriad Demon Hall and Yan Yang will serve as their example!
Li Yunjing's voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable authority, clearly reaching everyone's ears.
A terrifying pressure emanated from Li Yunjing, enveloping the entire square.
Everyone felt immense pressure, and even breathing became difficult.
The Old Man Wandu's face instantly turned extremely ugly.
He never expected that Li Yunjing would be so arrogant, openly declaring in front of so many people that he would overthrow the rule of the three Dao Lords.
He wanted to say something, but under Li Yunjing's oppressive aura, he couldn't utter a single word.
Only now did he realize that Li Yunjing's cultivation level was truly terrifying.
If a fight really breaks out, the Old Man Wandu has no chance of winning at all.
"Miscalculation!"
The Old Man Wandu looked grim, thinking to himself.
At this moment, Li Yunjing looked at the Old Man Wandu and said calmly, "Myriad Poison Sect Master, if you wish to pledge allegiance to the Holy Domain, feel free to try. I, Li Yunjing, am always ready to oblige."
After speaking, Li Yunjing slowly sat down.
The square remained silent.
Everyone was stunned by Li Yunjing's domineering presence.
It took a long time before anyone realized what was happening.
"Senior is right! The rule of the Holy Domain should have been overthrown long ago! I am willing to follow Senior Li Yunjing!"
"I'd like to too!"
"Me too!"
"..."
More and more people are starting to respond to Li Yunjing.
Most of these people were Rogue Cultivator and disciples of small sects who had long been oppressed by the Holy Domain.
They had long been dissatisfied with the rule of the Holy Domain, but they lacked a leader.
Now that Li Yunjing has stepped forward, they are naturally willing to follow Li Yunjing.
The Old Man Wandu trembled with rage at the sight before him.
He originally intended to use this opportunity to unite various forces to deal with Li Yunjing.
Unexpectedly, this actually won Li Yunjing even more support.
He knew that he had completely lost today.
The Old Man Wandu snorted coldly and said, "Since fellow Daoists have different opinions, let's discuss this another day. Today is a joyous occasion for the birth of our Myriad Gu Sect. Let's not dwell on these unpleasant matters. Fellow Daoists, please enjoy the fine wine and delicacies!"
After saying this, the Old Man Wandu turned and walked into the Myriad Gu Hall.
The atmosphere at the ensuing banquet became somewhat awkward.
The members of the Myriad Gu Sect were all hostile towards Li Yunjing, but they dared not show it.
The other cultivators surrounded Li Yunjing, trying to curry favor with him.
While dealing with the crowd, Li Yunjing was secretly making plans in his mind.
He has confirmed that the relics recorded on the tortoise shell are located within the Myriad Gu Sect's sect.
Moreover, according to Qinglian, the entrance to the ruins is located in the sect's cemetery of the Myriad Gu Sect.
Now, he needs to find an opportunity to sneak into the Myriad Gu Sect's cemetery, find the ruins, and obtain the treasure.
The banquet lasted until late at night.
The disciples of the Myriad Gu Sect led the guests to the prepared guest rooms to rest.
Li Yunjing's guest room was arranged on the outermost edge of the Myriad Gu Sect.
Clearly, the Old Man Wandu was very wary of him.
But this was exactly what Li Yunjing wanted.
In the dead of night, all was quiet.
Li Yunjing quietly slipped out of the guest room.
He unleashed the Void Divine Treasury, his figure instantly merging into the darkness.
Hei Feng and Bi Shui stayed in the guest room to cover for him.
Li Yunjing moved through the Myriad Gu Sect's buildings like a ghost.
He avoided all the patrolling disciples and restrictions, heading towards the sect's cemetery of the Myriad Gu Sect.
According to Qinglian's guidance, the sect's cemetery is located behind the Myriad Gu Hall.
Soon, Li Yunjing arrived at the entrance to the sect's cemetery.
At the entrance, two disciples of the Myriad Gu Sect stood guard.
With a flick of his finger, Li Yunjing unleashed two thin streams of Sword Qi, instantly piercing the throats of two disciples.
The two disciples didn't even have time to scream before they collapsed to the ground, dead.
Li Yunjing slipped into the Myriad Poison Sect Sect's cemetery.
The sect's cemetery of the Myriad Gu Sect is located on the back mountain of Myriad Gu Mountain.
The place is eerie and terrifying, overgrown with weeds, and littered with broken tombstones and graves.
The air was thick with Yin Qi, stench of decay, sending shivers down one's spine.
A thick layer of black mist shrouded the cemetery, blocking out all the moonlight.
Even highly skilled cultivators can only see a radius of a few feet here.
Li Yunjing walked slowly through the cemetery, his Divine Sense fully activated as he vigilantly observed the surrounding movements.
"Big brother, be careful." Qinglian's voice rang in Li Yunjing's mind. "The Yin Qi here is extremely heavy, and the founder of the Myriad Gu Sect set up a powerful Yin Soldier Restriction here back then. There is a high possibility that there are powerful Yin soldier creatures inside."
Li Yunjing nodded and said, "I understand. Don't worry, I'll be careful."
He continued walking deeper into the cemetery.
The deeper you go, the heavier the Yin Qi becomes, and the more eerie and terrifying the surrounding environment becomes.
White ghostly figures would occasionally drift past from behind the tombstones, emitting mournful screams.
These are just ordinary wandering spirits and pose no threat to Li Yunjing.
Li Yunjing simply waved his hand, and scattered them.
After walking for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Li Yunjing arrived at the deepest part of the cemetery.
Here stands a massive stone tomb.
The stone tomb's door was tightly shut, and countless strange runes were carved on it.
The stone tomb is surrounded by nine massive stone pillars, each carved with a lifelike venomous snake.
This is the tomb of the founder of the Myriad Gu Sect, and also the location of the entrance to the ruins recorded on the tortoise shell.
"This is it," Li Yunjing thought to himself.
He walked to the stone tomb door and carefully examined the runes on it.
These runes form a powerful Yin Soldier Restriction, capable of preventing any living thing from entering.
"This restriction is powerful, but it's nothing to me." A faint smile appeared on Li Yunjing's lips.
He extended his right hand, Supreme Unity Pure Subtlety Scripture full power.
A surge of pure purifying power flowed from his palm and into the runes on the door.
