“I’m not sure, but I think this ‘Overlord’ might refer to a certain aspect… Oh right, I remember now. The Space Crushing realm among spiritual martial artists is called ‘Overlord’! The other party can’t be a spiritual martial artist, can he?”
“Tss! Really? Didn’t they say that spiritual martial artists don’t exist? Why would one appear out of the blue?”
“Heh, just because we don’t have spiritual martial artists here doesn’t mean that they don’t in other worlds.”
“That’s right. I remember now. These people are not from our world to begin with. They came from another world and wish to use the teleportation array to go to another world. This place is just their transit station.”
“I see!”
!!…
The people in the group spoke one after another. At the end of their analysis, their faces were filled with curiosity and envy.
A spiritual martial arts Overlord. No wonder even their elder in the Grotto-Heaven realm had to bow down to him.
The middle-aged men listened to the conversation, and their bodies stiffened in fear.
Oh my god, we actually provoked a spiritual martial arts Overlord?
He even said that he wanted to kill us!
F*ck, this is completely suicidal.
Had it not been for the other party’s sudden change of mind, the two of us would be seeing our ancestors now.
The spiritual martial arts Overlord was a legendary existence.
Since ancient times, no one had succeeded in becoming a spiritual martial artist.
Today, they met one, and he was an Overlord of the spiritual martial arts. It was too… scary!
…
Underground hall.
In a spacious space.
Donglai Wen led Su Jingxing, Feng Fa, and the others to stand on a step and look at the circular sunken platform a few meters ahead. At the bottom of the platform, a complicated array formation pattern was clearly visible.
The entire array formation had a radius of ten meters. There was also a complicated starry sky pattern on the dome above that corresponded mutually.
“A corner of the teleportation array formation has shattered.”
Donglai Wen pointed at the array patterns in the southwest corner. Above his finger, the connection of the patterns was broken. In some places, they had even completely disappeared.
“Those were all caused by the demons.”
Donglai Wen pointed at the damaged teleportation array and said seriously, “Half a month ago, a demon suddenly invaded the Teleportation Hall silently and appeared here. It killed our disciples guarding it and destroyed the array formation.
“…Elder Donglai, you didn’t notice anything amiss before this?” Su Jingxing raised his eyebrows.
“No.” Donglai shook his head and sighed. “That demon’s ability was very strange. Not a trace of demonic energy leaked out. Be it whether it was entering or leaving, I didn’t sense anything the entire time. I only learned of the situation when the disciples on rotation for the next shift came in.”
“When I rushed over, the corpse hadn’t been moved and the scene was well protected. However, after a round of inspection, other than confirming that it was the doing of the demons, I didn’t find anything else.”
“Wait, how are you so sure that it was the demons?” Su Jingxing was puzzled. “Didn’t you say that the other party has strange abilities and you didn’t even sense demonic energy?”
“Our Sect Master said so,” Donglai Wen said seriously. “When I rushed over to check, the Sect Master also came. He determined from the traces at the scene that the murderer is a demon.”
“…So, you guys haven’t caught the murderer? Or has no one seen it?” Su Jingxing had a strange expression.
“Indeed, no one has seen it. We’ve been searching, but so far, we haven’t found where this demon is hiding. If this strange demon doesn’t appear on its own, we can’t do anything to it.” Donglai Wen sighed.
Su Jingxing kept quiet.
Things were getting interesting.
There was no demonic energy, but they concluded that it was the doing of a demon.
The person who said this was the Sect Master of the Yanri Sect.
In this world, the Yanri Sect was the strongest sect. Even in the replacement of the emperor of the Datang Dynasty, Yanri Sect had the final say.
The Sect Master of the Yanri Sect was the true emperor, the number one expert in the world.
His words were indeed an imperial edict.
If he said that it was the doing of the demons, then it was the doing of the demons!
Even if no one had seen this demon from the beginning to the end.
For example, Donglai Wen, he believed it without a doubt.
But Su Jingxing’s intuition told him that there was something wrong!
There was something very wrong with the Sect Master of the Yanri Sect!
If not for the fact that the array formation was destroyed and teleportation was impossible, Su Jingxing wouldn’t have bothered with what was wrong with the Sect Master of the Yanri Sect.
Unfortunately…
“May I ask what realm your Sect Master is in?”
Su Jingxing asked calmly, “Is it the Meditation realm or the Seeking realm?”
“Meditation! Half a year ago, our Sect Master had just transcended a lightning tribulation and advanced to the Meditation realm, attaining immortality!”
Donglai Wen responded politely. Then, he shifted his gaze and asked, “May I know which tribulation Overlord Kong is in?”
“Oh, one for now.” Su Jingxing pondered.
“A one-tribulation Overlord is already very impressive.”
Donglai Wen sighed. “It’s dozens of times harder to break through to the Space Crushing realm of spiritual martial arts than it is for us divine martial arts, not to mention becoming an Overlord of spiritual martial arts. We’ve never had one here!”
“I was just lucky.”
Su Jingxing smiled and changed the topic. “Elder Donglai, I wonder if I can meet your Sect Master? It’s rare for me to come to this world. It’s only right for me to visit a Venerable like your Sect Master.”
“Not a problem.”
When Donglai Wen heard this, his face was full of smiles. “Our Sect Master must be very happy that Overlord Kong has come to visit.”
A spiritual martial arts Overlord was highly respected in any human world.
There was no reason for the Sect Master to be unhappy that Kong Xuan was willing to submit and pay him a visit!
Immediately, Donglai Wen called for Su Jingxing and left the Teleportation Hall to rush to the sect.
Feng Fa and the other Heart Moon Foxes naturally followed.
On the way, Donglai Wen asked for the reason they hated the devils.
It turned out that a hundred years ago, the devils had once launched a war in an attempt to occupy the world and enslave humans.
Under the orders of the Yanri Sect, the humans had paid a huge price to defeat the devils and fight until the remaining devils escaped to other worlds.
From then on, humans had always hated the devils. No matter where the devils came from, as long as they were discovered, they would kill them.
As the leader of the human race, the Yanri Sect acted very strictly on this principle.
Any devil would be killed without confirmation.
Now that the Heart Moon Foxes had been exposed, if they were to wander around, they would immediately attract experts from all over the world to encircle and annihilate them.
Only with Donglai Wen around and Su Jingxing’s guarantee, would they be safe and sound.
Even so.
Before arriving at the location of the Yanri Sect, Su Jingxing sent a voice transmission to Feng Fa, telling them not to follow him into the sect.
Although Feng Fa was curious, he tactfully did not probe further.
After hearing Donglai Wen’s introduction that the tall mountain range in the distance was the sect’s entrance, he decisively called for all the Heart Moon Foxes to stop in midair. Then, they landed on a mountain and hid themselves.
“Hmm, where did those devils go?”
Donglai Wen, who was flying in front, sensed the commotion behind him. He turned around and asked curiously.
“Oh, they said that it’s better to keep their identity as devils a secret. They won’t come with me. They asked me to contact them after I leave the sect,” Su Jingxing said casually.
“That’s good.”
Donglai Wen thought for a moment and nodded. “They’re devils after all. The people in the sect hold great resentment for devils. If they see them, it will indeed cause a conflict. However, don’t worry, Overlord Kong. With your identity, everyone will only welcome you.”
“Is that so?” Su Jingxing smiled.
The two of them flew in the air and approached the sky above the mountain range.
Buzz!
A light barrier that connected heaven and earth suddenly blocked their way.
“It’s me.”
Donglai Wen shouted, “Elder of the Teleportation Hall, Donglai Wen, is returning to the sect to attend to some matters. Open the array formation door immediately.”
Silence.
After Donglai Wei finished speaking, the sky and ground were dead silent. There was no response.
The light barrier that connected the sky and the ground and enveloped the entire huge mountain range flickered with light, but no one appeared inside.
“What’s going on?”
Donglai Wen frowned. He clasped his hands together and quickly formed a seal, slapping it on the light barrier.
Dong!
A dull and oppressive sound reverberated through the sky and spread far and wide.
Ripples appeared on the light barrier and spread out like water waves.
When it stopped, an incomparably dense blood mist suddenly appeared from behind the light barrier and piled up in midair.
In the center of the blood mist, a majestic figure that resembled a mountain was faintly discernible…
