Rumble, rumble, rumble! In the sky above Vast Cloud City, dark clouds rumbled and linked together. It was as if endless darkness was pressing down.
Instantly, the heaven and earth fell into darkness, as if it was shrouded by eternal night.
At this moment, everyone felt a terrifying pressure that made it hard for them to breathe.
Nie Tian looked at the sky and couldn't help but frown. He couldn't see what was in the dark clouds. This feeling of the unknown made him panic.
Especially the rumbling dark clouds. It was as if there were countless giant beasts of darkness lurking within, making people fearful.
At that moment, the dark clouds expanded rapidly and spread in all directions. Very quickly, it covered the entire Vast Cloud City, forming the power of dark clouds pressing down on the city.
At that moment, everyone couldn't help but panic.
"What kind of power is this? Why is it so terrifying?"
"I can't breathe. Are we going to die?"
"Who is that voice in the darkness? Could it be that it's coming for the five academies?"
Some people panicked, some people were confused, but most people felt an inexplicable fear.
This kind of suffocating pressure from the dark clouds pressing down on the city was too terrifying. Even the most resilient martial artists found it hard to endure.
"Who are you? Please show yourself! " At that moment, Zhuge Keyun spoke. His eyes were dark and his aura was like that of a lion.
"The five academies are going back on their words and losing their demeanor. I just can't take it anymore. " A thunderous voice came from the dark clouds and resounded in everyone's ears, making them feel like their eardrums were about to explode.
Zhuge Keyun frowned a few times and said, "If that's the case, please show yourself."
"Hmph." That voice sneered and said, "Zhuge Keyun, you are also a grandmaster, but you are lying to a child in front of everyone. Don't you feel ashamed?"
Zhuge Keyun's old face instantly changed and became very ugly. His chest heaved up and down slightly. It was obvious that he was suppressing his anger, but he didn't explode. Instead, he said, "You are calling me by my name. Do you know me?"
"We met once. But at that time, you were still a naked child." The voice laughed and said, "Speaking of which, I have some friendship with your ancestor. You can barely be considered a junior of mine."
"This …" The crowd couldn't help but tremble when they heard what the newcomer said. The shock in their hearts was written all over their faces.
As the Heavenly Law Prefecture Master, Zhuge Keyun was already a peak figure in the All-Heaven Sacred World.
This person actually said that he knew Zhuge Keyun's Martial Ancestor, and even said that Zhuge Keyun could barely be considered his junior. This was too exaggerated.
Zhuge Keyun was already a bag of old bones. Even though he had the cultivation of the Sky Martial Arts Divine Ancestor Peak, he was still a dying man.
If this person was of the same generation as Zhuge Keyun's martial ancestor, then which generation did he come from? How old was he? How terrifying was his cultivation?
With that in mind, everyone's expressions changed, and the panic in their eyes became even more intense.
Zhuge Keyun frowned even more, and his eyes trembled slightly. After a long while, he said in a deep voice, "My martial ancestor died long ago. Since senior is my martial ancestor's friend, and I have met him before, why don't you show yourself?"
As he spoke, his eyes shone with a strange light. It was obvious that he wanted to see through the dark clouds.
This was the third time he had asked the person in the dark clouds to show himself. His patience was about to run out.
"Zhuge Keyun, don't waste your time." The voice laughed and said, "With your strength, you are not qualified to make me show myself."
Zhuge Keyun's pupils suddenly contracted, and the aura around him trembled slightly. It was obvious that he could not take it anymore.
With his current identity and status, how could he not be angry when someone said that he was not qualified?
Not to mention whether this person's identity was real or fake, even if he was really Zhuge Keyun's martial ancestor's friend, he should not have said such big words.
It should be known that there was a limit to a martial artist's age. Even a Sky Martial Saint Ancestor martial artist would reach the end of their lifespan after a few million years.
Moreover, as a martial artist grew older, their strength could not be maintained at its peak. Thus, some people of Laozu's level might not be as strong as young martial artists of the same level.
Of course, some old monsters would use some special methods to extend their lifespans in order to continue living. However, these methods had great side effects, and it was difficult for them to maintain their strength.
For example, the ancestor of the Mu Family that Nie Tian had seen in the Virtual Luo Realm had used a special method to fuse with a Dragon Mulberry Tree. Although he had obtained a lifespan that exceeded the limit, it was not good. It could even be said that it was better to die than to live.
Thus, if the person in the dark clouds was from the same era as Zhuge Keyun, he might not be as strong as Zhuge Keyun.
At least, under normal circumstances, that person's strength should be weaker than Zhuge Keyun's.
However, since that person had a lifespan that exceeded the limit, it meant that his methods were strange, and he might be different from ordinary people.
"Cowardly scoundrel, get the hell out here!" At this moment, a furious bellow rang out. Afterwards, a figure rushed into the sky, and the surrounding space immediately shook as if it was about to collapse.
"Brother Qin!" Zhuge Keyun could not help but change in expression at this sudden sight as he cried out.
As it turned out, the person who had acted was the hot-tempered Dean Qin Fang.
Everyone's eyes trembled as they stared at the figure. They were extremely shocked.
Qin Fang's presence surged as terrifying power surged around him. It condensed into a spear, making him seem like a dragon that rushed into the sky. He rushed into the dark clouds in the sky.
"This guy is so powerful!" Nie Tian's eyes narrowed slightly as he was shocked.
As the dean, Qin Fang's cultivation had reached the peak long ago. He was known as the Spear God in the All-Heaven Saints' World.
Wherever Qin Fang passed by in the sky, the surrounding space would be forcefully ripped apart. Terrifying spatial storms surged towards the sides like tsunamis, and the entire world roared endlessly. It was extremely terrifying.
"The Heaven-dominating Spear Technique isn't bad, but it's still nowhere near your ancestor's." A deep voice rang out from the dark clouds in the sky. Afterwards, the space rumbled and endless dark clouds surged out. They actually condensed into a terrifying black claw in the sky, grabbing towards Qin Fang.
Boom! Bang bang bang … In the next moment, the black claw landed, directly breaking through the spear around Qin Fang's body. Afterwards, it pulled him into the dark clouds.
"This …" Everyone's eyes trembled violently at this shocking sight. They all cried out as they became stunned.
Zhuge Keyun and the other three deans were also shocked by the sight before them, becoming stunned on the spot.
