After the Heavenless Demon Exalt left, a weak speck of light suddenly appeared in the chaotic spatial crack. It gave off an extremely weak pulse of the soul.
This was a sliver of the soul of the grand elder of the Empyrean Demon Cult, Cheng Ming. Although the Heavenless Demon Exalt had pulverized Cheng Ming's soul, causing it to collapse and disperse into the chaotic spatial crack, Cheng Ming was not truly dead. Instead, he managed to preserve a sliver of his soul through a secret technique his master had passed on to him.
This wisp of Cheng Ming's true soul disappeared in a flash.
The lord of the Heaven's Link Peak in white robes currently sat before an extremely precious white jade table with six people of various ages on the Cloud Plane on the central region. They discussed how to deal with the Tian Empire.
Even though the six people sitting at the same table as the lord of the Heaven's Link Peak had all concealed their presences, making them seem like ordinary people, they were actually peak experts who stood at the apex of the Cloud Plane.
They were terrifying figures who could make the entire Cloud Plane tremble with a stomp of their feet.
"The Heavenless Demon Exalt has already killed the grand elder of the Heavenly Demon Religion and one of the five great generals, the War Demon. It looks like the Heavenless Demon Exalt is confident about dealing with the great elder behind the Heavenly Demon Religion who rarely shows himself," said an ordinary old man. The one who spoke was an extremely ordinary-looking old man. He was very old, and his back was hunched. The wrinkles on his face had already been squeezed together, and he gave off a feeling that he was about to die.
The old man was the ancestor of the Tong family, one of the peak clans on the Cloud Plane, Tong Wuming.
"The more powerful the Heavenless Demon Exalt is, the worse our situation will be. He doesn't fear the great elder of the Heavenly Demon Religion. This isn't good news for us," said a middle-aged man in green robes with a resolute expression.
He was the ancestor of the Godsfallen clan, Luo Mantian.
The Luoshen Clan was also one of the top forces in the Cloud State and was located in the North Region.
"In my opinion, the Heavenless Demon Exalt is trying to show off his strength to us. He killed the grand elder of the Heavenly Demon Religion with lightning speed, using his invincibility to show us that he does not fear the Heavenly Demon Religion. He's trying to warn us not to put up any pointless resistance," another old man said with a heavy voice. His complexion was very ugly. This person was Lieyan Wuji, the ancestor of the Firegod Clan, one of the top forces in the Cloud State.
"Peak lord, how confident are you in defeating the Heavenless Demon Exalt?" Zhou Zhidao, the founding ancestor of the Heaven and Earth Sect, asked.
Hearing Zhou Zhidao's words, everyone turned their gazes towards the peak master of Heaven's Link Peak.
The lord of the Heaven's Link Peak was a peak Third Heavenly Layer Grand Prime. He had always been the strongest on the Cloud Plane. He was a person of great prestige on the Cloud Plane, and he was admired by many peak clans.
If there was anyone on the Cloud Plane who possessed the right to take on the Heavenless Demon Exalt, it would definitely be the peak master of the Heaven's Link Peak.
This was because the other Grand Primes on the Cloud Plane were all at the First or Second Heavenly Layer. The difference between them and the Heavenless Demon Exalt who had reached the Fourth Heavenly Layer was just too great.
The lord of the Heaven's Link Peak stared at the depths of outer space, where the grand elder of the Heavenly Demon Religion fought the Heavenless Demon Exalt.
This place was extremely distant from the Cloud Plane, so distant that the vast piece of land on the Cloud Plane had become a palm-sized fragment that hovered in outer space. This distance had already exceeded the range of Chaotic Primes' senses. Only Grand Primes could sense what was happening there.
A strange light flickered through the lord of the Heaven's Link Peak's eyes. He said, "I have complete confidence in defeating him at the same level of cultivation, but he's reached the Fourth Heavenly Layer before me now. If I face him again, I have no chance at victory. I can only keep him busy for a while at most, but as time goes on, I'll still be defeated."
"What do we do then? The Tian Empire already has three Grand Primes, and a few peak clans have already stood on the same side as the Tian Empire. In terms of peak experts, the Tian Empire is no less than us. Coupled with the Heavenless Demon Exalt, sigh … "The founding ancestor of the Cosmic sect, Zhou Zhidao, sighed at the sky. His face was filled with worry.
Aside from the lord of the Heaven's Link Peak, the other ancestors gathered there were all sunken. The current situation was not good for them at all.
"Are we really going to submit to the Tian Empire? From today onwards, we're going to follow the Tian Empire's lead? "Luo Mantian sighed gently.
Everyone present was an expert who reigned over an entire region. They had long since become accustomed to commanding the world, yet they had to lower their heads and follow the Tian Empire's lead. They struggled to accept this.
The lord of the Heaven's Link Peak remained calm. He said, "There's no need to worry. The Heavenless Demon Exalt is no longer a concern."
"May I ask what the peak lord means?"
The lord of the Heaven's Link Peak pointed at the distant space where the Heavenless Demon Exalt and the grand elder of the Heavenly Demon Religion had stopped him. He said, "The Heavenless Demon Exalt has completely offended the Heavenly Demon Religion. Moreover, he seems to have taken something extremely important from the grand elder of the Heavenly Demon Religion. I believe the great elder of the Heavenly Demon Religion will personally come to the Cloud Plane before long."
"The great elder behind the Heavenly Demon Religion can stop the Heavenless Demon Exalt?" The eyes of all the peak experts gathered there narrowed.
The lord of the Heaven's Link Peak seemed to think back to what he had witnessed in the past. Deep fear immediately appeared in his eyes, and he said, "You've underestimated the great elder of the Heavenly Demon Religion far too much. He's even more terrifying than you imagine him to be. Since the Heavenless Demon Exalt has offended the great elder of the Heavenly Demon Religion, his fate has already been decided. What we need to do right now is stop the attacks of the Tian Empire before the great elder of the Heavenly Demon Religion arrives. "
"However, just in case, I suggest you evacuate some clansmen from the Cloud Plane as soon as possible and leave behind some descendants."
"If that's the case, I'll go back and make arrangements immediately. Our formal conflict with the Tian Empire will happen very soon. We don't have much time left."
"I hope the mysterious great elder of the Heavenly Demon Religion can arrive in time."
.....
Within a majestic divine hall in an unknown region of the Saints' World, a sliver of the soul of the grand elder of the Heavenly Demon Religion, Cheng Ming, had already entered the divine hall with a flash.
"Master!" Very soon, a strand of Cheng Ming's soul arrived before the tightly shut secret room. It transformed into a fist-sized figure and knelt before the secret room, trembling.
"What's going on?" A deep voice came from the secret chamber.
"We were attacked by the Heavenless Demon Exalt …" Cheng Ming gave a simple explanation of what had happened.
"Rumble!" With a deep sound, the tightly shut door of the secret room slowly opened. Immediately, a cold killing force spread out from inside.
A black-robed, resolute, and handsome middle-aged man walked out with a sunken face.
He glared at Cheng Ming's soul and growled, "Where's the person I wanted you to receive?"
"I- she was taken away by the Heavenless Demon Exalt," Cheng Ming said fearfully.
"The Heavenless Demon Exalt!" At that moment, the middle-aged man's gaze became extremely terrifying and shocking. Surging killing intent radiated from him, and even his eyes became bloodthirsty red.
At this moment, he gave off the feeling of a bloodthirsty beast.
Cheng Ming, who knelt in the air as a sliver of soul, became even more uneasy. He had followed his master for so many years, but he had never seen him so furious.
"I can't wait any longer. My original body needs to break free immediately!" The middle-aged man's face was extremely sunken. He got Cheng Ming to reconstruct his body before turning around and entering the room. The door to the room closed once again.
At the same time, on a desolate planet filled with deathly stillness in a galaxy extremely far away from here, there was a middle-aged man in white robes who looked exactly the same as the master Cheng Ming spoke of. He sat in the depths of the planet with his legs crossed.
