Disguise
"What's your name?"
After landing, the old man couldn't help but ask.
"Ye Liangchen!" Ye Xuan casually replied.
"Alright, Ye Liangchen. No matter where you're from, since you dare to appear in front of me today, your fate is already decided. Make your move. Let me see what you're capable of." The old man also took out a long sword.
Ye Xuan held the Eight Desolate Sword and watched coldly. At this moment, he was also performing a series of actions in his heart.
"Ding! Host has learned the Prime Clarity Sword Art. Current proficiency is 10%!"
"Ding! Host has learned the Prime Clarity Demonic Stomping Steps. Current proficiency is 10%!"
Although he had already raised the Hidden Dragon Sword Art to 90% proficiency, the Hidden Dragon Sword Art was created by the Poison King Sect. The Prime Clarity Sword Art was the absolute art of the Prime Clarity Palace. Although these two martial arts were both High Tier Heaven Tier martial arts, the Prime Clarity Sword Art was much stronger than the Hidden Dragon Sword Art.
This time, he happened to meet an opponent who was around the same realm. It was very suitable for him to practice his martial arts.
"You're not going to make a move?" Seeing that Ye Xuan was in a daze, the old man couldn't help but ask.
However, just as he spoke, Ye Xuan used the Prime Clarity Demonic Stomping Steps that he just learned and charged over.
"Hmph!"
The old man snorted and faced him head-on.
Both of them were in the Essence Soul Realm and could use the surrounding Yuan Qi to fight. However, the Yuan Qi in the Sky Water Island was much less than in the Blood Cliff Continent, so their battle wasn't very intense.
"Ding! The Prime Clarity Sword Art's proficiency has increased. Current proficiency is 20%!"
"Ding! The Prime Clarity Demonic Stomping Steps' proficiency has increased. Current proficiency is 20%!"
The two martial arts were improving rapidly. In just a few rounds, the Prime Clarity Sword Art's proficiency had increased to 60%.
The old man was going easy at the beginning to test Ye Xuan's realm. Now, as the Prime Clarity Sword Art's proficiency increased, Ye Xuan's attacks became more and more ferocious. He had no choice but to show his strength.
However, in the next moment, the old man found a place. He seemed to have seen the martial arts that Ye Xuan was using somewhere before.
He was thinking as he defended...
Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind.
Shangqing Palace!
"You are a disciple of Shangqing Palace?" The old man exclaimed.
The Shangqing Palace was a power in the Heavenly Absolute Territory. It had branches in many territories, including the Heavenly Wolf Island. That was why he found it familiar.
"You know him?"
Ye Xuan was a little surprised.
These two martial arts were obtained from the disciples of Shangqing Palace in the Ghost Tomb Territory. Shangqing Palace was in the Heaven Absolute Territory, which was quite a distance away from the Heavenly Wolf Island. How could this old man know them?
As he attacked, he replied, "So what if I am?"
Unexpectedly, the old man continued to shout, "Stop! Our Tang Clan is also working for Shangqing Palace!"
What?
Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan was shocked again.
The Tang Family was on the Heavenly Wolf Island, so how could they have any relationship with the Heavenly Absolute Territory's Shangqing Palace?
If that was really the case, then there was only one explanation. Shangqing Palace had a branch on Heavenly Wolf Island.
Even so, Ye Xuan did not stop and continued to attack.
"Stop! What are you trying to do?" The old man shouted once again. Although the Tang Clan was strong, they were not strong enough to fight Shangqing Palace.
Right at this moment, Ye Xuan suddenly stopped attacking and asked, "Then why did you capture those people?"
"Of course we're sending them to Shangqing Palace." The old man furrowed his brows and asked, "Which branch are you from?"
"I'm from the Heavenly Absolute Territory." Ye Xuan answered.
"Impossible! How did you pass through the Deep Sea Underground Palace?!" The old man was shocked.
He had walked around the entire Heavenly Water Island, so of course he had found the Deep Sea Underground Palace. He had tried to break through the formation, but he couldn't. That was why he had sent two men to guard it.
"You can't, but that doesn't mean I can't. Why did you capture those people? "Ye Xuan asked again.
"I told you, we're sending them to the Supreme Pure Palace. The Supreme Pure Palace branch on the Heavenly Wolf Island needs Divine Core death row prisoners every month, and we just happened to discover this Heavenly Water Island, so …" The old man explained.
Although he didn't continue, Ye Xuan understood what he was trying to say.
"Prisoners on death row? You're sending those innocent people as prisoners on death row? Also, why does that branch need so many prisoners on death row? "Ye Xuan asked with a puzzled expression.
"I don't know either." The old man shook his head.
Right at this moment, Ye Xuan suddenly attacked again.
The old man cried out in surprise, "What are you doing?!"
The Tang family was working for Shangqing Palace, and Ye Xuan was a disciple of Shangqing Palace. There shouldn't be any conflicts between them.
"You're lying! Shangqing Palace has always been a righteous sect, why would we disregard human lives?! Besides, you said you wanted them to test it out, how could you not know?! "Ye Xuan shouted out loudly.
The old man immediately realized that he had let the cat out of the bag when they were in the first main city.
But, what surprised him even more was that Ye Xuan's attacks suddenly became fiercer.
Since the beginning, Ye Xuan had been trying to improve his proficiency in martial arts. Although there were three Earth Veins between him and the old man, this wasn't the Blood Stone Continent, and he couldn't use much natural Yuan energy here.
Right now, he was pressuring the old man, forcing him to tell him the truth.
"Fine, I'll tell you, I'll tell you!"
While backing away, the old man shouted out, "There is a huge group of devils sealed under Shangqing Palace, and they are showing signs of breaking through the seal. That's why Shangqing Palace needs a large number of prisoners on death row, and these devils can possess human bodies so that they can break through the seal. Once they break through the seal, they will be killed by Shangqing Palace disciples."
After listening to the old man, Ye Xuan finally understood what was going on.
It turned out that Shangqing Palace needed a large number of vessels to bring these devils out and kill them, then use this method to continue sealing these devils.
It looked like all the captured Divine Core prisoners were going to be used as vessels, and then be killed by Shangqing Palace disciples.
Shangqing Palace's method was still acceptable, but this Tang family deserved to die!
If the Tang family were capturing people from Heavenly Wolf Island, he wouldn't care, but why did they come to Heavenly Water Island to capture people? How could he allow this?
If there weren't enough Divine Core prisoners, they might capture True Profound warriors, True Origin warriors, and True Spirit warriors. Although they might be killed by these devils, it was still better than nothing.
Because of this Tang family, Tang Tian's tyrannical rule had led to the deaths of all officials from the Great Song, Great Zhou, and Great Yan dynasties.
This revenge had to be avenged!
Seeing that Ye Xuan was still attacking, the old man shouted out once again, "We're just following orders! Buddy, if you keep attacking, don't blame me for being merciless!"
Although Shangqing Palace was a powerful force, everyone had a temper, and the old man couldn't hold it in any longer.
"Then why don't you show me how merciless you are?"
Ye Xuan furiously shouted out, and his aura instantly skyrocketed.
Beast King Rampage!
On Heavenly Water Island, where natural Yuan energy was scarce, a body's physique was more effective. With a few thousand dragon strength and a 30% increase in movement speed, Ye Xuan's speed had greatly surpassed the old man's.
