The Immortal Qianbian Gate retracted all of its strength and made preparations for war. The Dongshengxian Gate naturally didn't remain idle during these days. After the Immortal Qianbian Gate retreated, they gradually occupied the five prefectures controlled by the Immortal Qianbian Gate. Right now, they were using the method of encirclement to gather the immortal armies of the four prefectures at the border of the Cloud Prefecture.
They were also worried that the Immortal Qianbian Gate would go all out, staking everything on a single throw. Hence, they didn't advance rashly but chose to take things slow and steady. They set up teleportation arrays at the four prefectures. Once there's a commotion in a certain location, they would be able to gather the immortal armies there immediately. Naturally, this was also a precautionary measure. In truth, their people had long infiltrated the Cloud Prefecture. If the Immortal Qianbian Gate mobilized an army, they would instantly know.
Right now, the Dongshengxian Gate's encirclement of the Immortal Qianbian Gate had already formed a black cloud. Once the order was given, they would immediately advance towards the main city of the Cloud Prefecture.
This time around, not only did they want a victory, they also wanted to let the people of the thirteen prefectures understand who was the true master of this land.
At the border of the Cloud Prefecture and Yue Prefecture, one of the four armies of the Dongshengxian Gate was stationed there. This army was extremely majestic and occupied an entire city. It was formed from the troops of the Dongshengxian Gate and their strength was extremely shocking. The person leading this army was one of the four paragons under the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor.
Back then when the emperor-ranked war erupted in the Evergreen Kingdom, the White Emperor appeared at the Dongshengxian Gate and killed a paragon with a wave of his hand. Hence, among the four paragons now, one of them was a replacement. As for the other three paragons, they were all extremely ancient experts that followed the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor to conquer the thirteen prefectures.
The four paragons under the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor, each of them led a supreme army. One could say that this time around, the Dongshengxian Gate used all its strength against the Immortal Qianbian Gate, wanting to destroy the Immortal Qianbian Gate in one fell swoop. Naturally, the Immortal Qianbian Gate could choose to flee. But if that was the case, regardless of the Emperor Qianbian or the Immortal Qianbian Gate, they wouldn't have the face to come to the thirteen prefectures ever again.
Back then, it was because the Emperor Qianbian fought to a draw with the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor that the Immortal Qianbian Gate obtained the six prefectures from the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor. Now, if they abandoned their sect and fled, it would be a great humiliation.
Outside the city at the border of the Cloud and Yue Prefectures, over ten silhouettes suddenly appeared. This city had already been cleared, and all the guards were from the Dongshengxian Gate. When the guards saw the masked silhouettes, they immediately berated, "This is the territory of the Dongshengxian Gate. Unauthorized people are not allowed to enter."
Those masked silhouettes acted as though they didn't hear it. They directly entered the city, moving with an inconceivable speed.
"BOOM!" All of a sudden, the sound of drums rang out behind them. The immortal senses of the guards in the city swept out and very swiftly, more and more immortal-foundation experts soared up into the air. Among them, there were a few immortal kings. They directly walked towards the masked silhouettes and coldly asked, "Who are you?"
The masked silhouettes soared up into the air. One of them then spoke, "The people of the Immortal Qianbian Gate have issued a challenge to immortal kings at the same cultivation level. Do you accept the challenge?"
A commotion broke out in the army as more and more experts rushed over. Numerous immortal kings rushed over as well, exuding a majestic aura. If it was based on the number of people, it was sufficient to overwhelm the ten plus immortal kings here.
A mere ten plus immortal kings actually dared to come here? They simply didn't know the immensity of the heavens and earth.
The Dongshengxian Gate naturally could choose not to accept the challenge. They could directly rush up and use numbers to suppress the immortal kings.
However, immortal kings were naturally arrogant. Since the masked silhouettes issued a challenge, how could they not accept it?
At this moment, an expert with a fearsome aura stepped out, causing the entire space to tremble. This person was none other than one of the four paragons under the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor, Paragon Golden Cauldron. This Paragon Golden Cauldron was one of the late replacements for the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor. His strength was incomparably tyrannical and his cultivation base had already reached the Transformation Boundary, very close to the immortal emperor realm. He was definitely a supremely terrifying existence.
"People of the Immortal Qianbian Gate, do you all not dare to show yourselves? Are you all hiding your faces?" Paragon Golden Cauldron's voice boomed out like a great bell, containing the sharpness of the Great Dao within his words.
"There's no need for nonsense. Today, we are here to issue a challenge to immortal kings. Do you accept the challenge?" That masked silhouette spoke.
"How do we fight?" Paragon Golden Cauldron asked.
"At the same cultivation level." As the sound of his voice faded, a figure walked out. His aura gushed forth as destructive devil might gushed forth, as well as traces of sharp sword qi. This person was none other than Qin Wentian. He wore a fiendish devil mask on his face, resembling a devil cultivator.
"Devil cultivator?" Paragon Golden Cauldron frowned. Devil cultivators were mostly gathered on the Myriad Devil Islands. Although there were also devil cultivators in the immortal realms, there weren't many of them.
"Paragon Golden Cauldron, you seem to be a little too curious. You should have sensed his cultivation base. He's an initial-stage immortal king. If you accept the challenge, send out someone at the same cultivation level as you." That masked silhouette continued.
Paragon Golden Cauldron muttered to himself. After that, he turned his head and stared at everyone. The people of the Immortal Qianbian Gate were so audacious, coming here to issue a challenge. Most probably, they must have come prepared. In that case, the combat prowess of this person would surely be extremely powerful.
In a war between two armies, immortal kings would definitely be the cornerstone of the army. Unless immortal emperors directly fought against each other, the crux of victory would be determined by the immortal kings. No losses were allowed.
"Gu Yu, are you willing to accept the challenge?" Paragon Golden Cauldron asked.
"Disciple is willing." From within the Dongshengxian Gate, a young immortal king walked out. He was the beloved disciple of Paragon Golden Cauldron and had extremely powerful combat prowess. Paragon Golden Cauldron was very confident in him, this was why he chose him to accept the challenge.
"Since this is the case, let's both sides retreat and empty the battlefield." The masked silhouette spoke. Paragon Golden Cauldron nodded as both sides retreated, emptying the battlefield.
At this location, only Qin Wentian and Gu Yu remained.
Qin Wentian's eyes flashed with cold killing intent. The Dongshengxian Gate has always been a power he wanted to destroy. The grudge between him and the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor had a very long history.
Now that there's a chance to kill the experts of the Dongshengxian Gate, he naturally wouldn't miss it. He wouldn't show any mercy at all.
"Gu Yu is the beloved disciple of Paragon Golden Cauldron and is proficient in strength similar to Paragon Golden Cauldron. His attacks are tyrannical and his defense is extremely strong." A strand of immortal sense transmitted into Qin Wentian's ears. He nodded silently in his heart as a fearsome destructive devil might congregated. Fearsome law energy circulated around him as an incomparably sharp devil saber of destruction appeared in his hand.
The saber art that the undying old freak imparted to him could be used to conceal the techniques he was proficient in in the past. After that, he infused the God's Hand into his saber attacks, allowing him to unleash tyrannical attacks while not being seen through.
A gigantic cauldron floated around Gu Yu. In fact, golden law light flashed, instantly enveloping the space where Qin Wentian was at. His law domain was none other than the Golden Cauldron Law Domain.
The disciples that Paragon Golden Cauldron accepted all cultivated the same law attribute as him.
Gu Yu was none other than the inheritor of Paragon Golden Cauldron.
"RUMBLE!" An incomparably heavy suppressive might gushed forth, wanting to crush Qin Wentian into oblivion.
Qin Wentian unleashed his destructive devil law energy as strands of saber intent infused with sword-attribute energy manifested, transforming into numerous devil sabers of destruction that slashed at the gigantic cauldron Shadow.
Gu Yu pointed his finger at Qin Wentian. In an instant, a gigantic golden cauldron appeared in the air, blotting out the sun as it revolved frenziedly, directly aiming for Qin Wentian, exuding an incomparably fearsome aura.
"A law domain attack?" The light flowing around Qin Wentian flowed into the devil saber in his hand. After that, he slashed out with his saber, executing the first stance of the devil saber. The gigantic cauldron was split apart from the center, but the devil might grew stronger and stronger. The law energy in Qin Wentian's body frenziedly flowed into the devil saber, as well as the law energy in the surroundings.
"Mhm?" Gu Yu frowned. The might of the devil saber seemed to be growing stronger.
"SLASH!" Qin Wentian spat out a single word as he slashed out a second time. This time, the saber directly traversed through space. The devil saber slashed out as destructive arcs appeared in the air. Gu Yu's surroundings were filled with golden light as numerous gigantic cauldrons enveloped him, seemingly indestructible.
"BANG!" A thunderous sound rang out as the saber shattered. Gu Yu's defenses also crumbled apart. His eyes flashed with coldness. Although this saber strike was powerful, it only managed to break through his defenses.
But at this moment, Qin Wentian stabbed out with a finger as another illusory saber manifested, infusing even more terrifying law energy into it.
"Careful!" Paragon Golden Cauldron reminded. Gu Yu's expression turned heavy as boundless law energy gathered around him. His body turned golden as he folded seals with his hands, manifesting a myriad of cauldrons that shot towards the devil saber.
Around the devil saber, a myriad of saber shadows appeared, all of them cleaving down at the same time. The sky changed color as devil might churned wildly, clashing against the boundless golden light, causing the space to tremble and the cauldrons to shatter. The saber might continued on its way towards Gu Yu but Gu Yu was already prepared. He punched out as a golden divine dragon manifested in the air.
Qin Wentian's expression didn't change at all. He pointed his finger in the air once more as a saber manifested. This was the fourth saber strike, but it wasn't as large as the previous one. However, the devil might within it was even stronger than before.
"DIE!" Qin Wentian pointed his finger in the air as the devil saber transformed into a black stream of light, slashing towards Gu Yu once more.
Gu Yu's expression grew heavy as he stared at the devil saber slashing down. This saber became smaller but it seemed to be even faster.
"BOOM!" A bolt of black lightning directly shot over. At this instant, Gu Yu only felt his soul shuddering as his body trembled. In his eyes, the devil saber seemed to have split apart as numerous beams of saber light shot out, he couldn't see where it was aiming at.
"Gu Yu!" Paragon Golden Cauldron roared, his voice akin to a thunderbolt from the clear skies. Gu Yu's heart trembled violently as he reacted. He only saw the devil saber expanding in size in his eyes but it was already too late.
"Puchi!" As the saber slashed down, a black line appeared on Gu Yu's forehead, extending downwards. In the next instant, a thunderous boom rang out as Gu Yu's body directly exploded, destroyed by the tyrannical devil might of the saber.
Paragon Golden Cauldron's palm descended but he was still a step too late. His movements stiffened as his countenance turned ashen.
What a bizarre devil saber innate technique. The true killing move of this saber art was in the fourth stance.
This saber art was specially made for Qin Wentian by that old freak, the Soul Severing Devil Saber!
