Looking at that longtime Elder of the Sacred Sun Clan before her, He Ning finally let out a long sigh, her expression bleak as she shook her head, not speaking.
Zhang Kun remained silent, his expression complicated. In the end, all that was left was disappointment.
Elder Qin walked over, saying, "The Radiant Light Sect of the World beyond Worlds sent five Martial Saint experts this time. While they all perished in the Eight Extremities World, I wonder if there are any more reinforcements?"
Yan Zhaoge did not continue the earlier topic as he said, "Just now, I chased her to the World Illuminating Peak. On one hand, it was to have fun, and on the other hand, it was also for this reason."
"The Sacred Sun Clan's connection with the World beyond Worlds has already been broken for the time being. Still, this Radiant Light Sect possesses great strength and profound legacies. Having descended into the Eight Extremities World for the first time, if they have the intention, they will be able to accurately locate the Eight Extremities World and descend once more on their own accord."
Yan Zhaoge raised his brows slightly, "The forces that have descended this time may only be the tip of the iceberg."
This deduction was based on the strength of that person who had nearly borrowed Huang Jie's strength to descend with his full power back at the World Illuminating Peak. This person was also the Master of the Radiant Light Sect whom Huang Jie had spoken of.
If this person was the strongest in the Radiant Light Sect, then the situation would still be slightly better. If the Radiant Light Sect had even stronger experts, then they would have to guess the Radiant Light Sect's strength even higher.
Hearing this, everyone's expression became solemn. Zhang Kun and He Ning were equally worried.
Now that things had come to this, the enmity between them and the Radiant Light Sect of the World beyond Worlds was clearly already irreconcilable. Thus, they could only think of a way to deal with it.
He Ning knit her brows tightly, "While it is impossible for those from the World beyond Worlds to surpass the third level of the Martial Saint realm, if many experts descend at once, it would similarly be a calamity."
Hearing his words, Yan Zhaoge was deeply convinced.
Previously, when he swept away all his enemies and obtained a complete victory, he did not lose his mind.
While the Extreme Yang Seal was extremely powerful, it also took up a great amount of energy to use. At the same time, it could only be used for a single strike. After being used, it would fall into slumber once more, unable to be awakened for a very long time.
Meanwhile, the great extinguishing qi within the Myriad Dragon Palace could erupt in one go, being a one-time deal.
However, after the problem of the Nirvana Qi was solved, he could freely use the True Dragon Qi that he had obtained to improve his strength.
However, refining and absorbing the Dragon Qi for his own use required a process and time.
Yan Zhaoge's mind was currently very calm.
Counting Deng Sen whose cultivation base had been suppressed by the power of dimensions, three experts of the third level of the Martial Saint realm had descended this time.
What if next time, there were eight or ten of them, or even more?
Of course, it was not that there was no chance for things to turn for the better. For example, if his father Yan Di could break through to the second level of the Martial Saint realm within a short period of time, things would be much easier then.
If Yan Di had attained the third level of the Martial Saint realm, Yan Zhaoge believed that it would be useless no matter how many enemies of the same cultivation level descended.
As for Yan Zhaoge himself, if he had sufficient time, as his strength rose a step further, he would also not have to fear his opponents.
Now, he needed time and opportunity.
Yan Zhaoge said, "The Radiant Light Sect is far from the only power in the World beyond Worlds. Their mortal enemies exist within as well. It is not that the Radiant Light Sect is invincible and without worries."
He took out the paper fan he had obtained from the Dragon's Tomb, opened it, and showed the fan to everyone.
"Dim Darkness Sect …" Feng Yunsheng, Fu Enshu and the others exchanged looks.
Yan Zhaoge nodded, "That's right, the Dim Darkness Sect. When I obtained this paper fan, some of the will of the fan's original owner still remained within. His greatest regret before his death was that he had not been able to personally witness the destruction of the Radiant Light Sect."
"From his tone and the contents of his words, they are irreconcilable mortal enemies. While the Dim Darkness Sect might not be able to surpass the Radiant Light Sect, they are still a power of the same level at the very least."
Hearing this, everyone fell into deep thought. Elder Qin asked, "You mean that we should try to form a connection with the Dim Darkness Sect, borrowing their strength to stand against the Radiant Light Sect?"
"Yes, and also no." Yan Zhaoge said, "How would it be so easy to borrow their strength? Even if we want to, they would first have to be willing first."
"While the Radiant Light Sect and the Dim Darkness Sect are mortal enemies, if the Radiant Light Sect wants to deal with us, the Dim Darkness Sect might not necessarily help us."
"The enemy of an enemy is a friend. This is established on the premise that there is not much of a difference in our cultivation levels, that we are all on the same level."
Yan Zhaoge spread his palms apart, "Otherwise, if we rashly go looking for them, they would only look down on us or ignore us. They might even covet our treasures like the Radiant Light Sect."
"Still, since their relationship is so bad and they are massive entities of the same level, if an intense battle erupts between them, it would be very hard for the Radiant Light Sect to find trouble with us. After all, we are not clay to be trifled with."
Yan Zhaoge closed his fan with a clack, "The frame of this fan is made from the legendary World beyond Worlds. With this treasure, even before reaching the fourth level of the Martial Saint realm, one might still be able to head to the World beyond Worlds."
Everyone was shocked, Fu Enshu asking, "You want to head to the World beyond Worlds now?"
Yan Zhaoge waved his hands, "Of course not in such a hurry. Even if I really want to go, I would still have to spend some time preparing. It is not that simple."
"First, I have to completely stabilise the situation in the Eight Extremities World. Then, I still have to wait for my father to emerge from the Seal of the East Sea before making further plans."
"Still, it is definitely better to go to the World beyond Worlds sooner rather than later, understanding the situation there as soon as possible." Saying thus, Yan Zhaoge narrowed his eyes into slits, "The Purple Sun Martial Saint Zhang Chao's successful ascension is still a threat at the end of the day. More importantly, the Extreme Yin Crown has been brought to the World beyond Worlds by them as well. This matter definitely cannot be let off just like that."
Feng Yunsheng did not look dejected as she merely nodded calmly upon hearing his words.
Yan Zhaoge then sighed, "Also, my mother very likely came from there, and may be returning there now as well. I do not know the specifics of the situation. I have long since wanted to go search for her as well. There was no way to do so before, but there is finally hope now."
Hearing his words, Fu Enshu turned her head away.
Seeing this, Yan Zhaoge smiled bitterly as he shrugged.
Zhang Kun and the others who had a general understanding of the situation with Yan Di, Xue Chuqing and Fu Enshu were all rendered speechless for a time.
Yan Zhaoge straightened his expression, asking, "Right, how is second apprentice-uncle's condition now?"
He Ning said, "He retrieved the Clear Qi Robe to face the enemy earlier. Still, he should be fine. I just checked on him, and his condition is still rather stable. Still, his injuries are still very serious, and it is unknown when he will awaken."
Yan Zhaoge said, "I'll go take a look at him."
With the Northern Ocean Clone's physique of the second level of the Martial Saint realm, Yan Zhaoge was able to use many healing methods that required a rather high cultivation base to execute at this moment.
After helping Fang Zhun for a while more, he saw that the effects were virtually immediate as Fang Zhun's complexion immediately improved greatly.
At the same time, Broad Creed Mountain was also dealing with the aftermath of the attack on their mountain.
With the Sacred Sun Clan and the Heavenly Thunder Hall both destroyed, the situation in the Eight Extremities World abruptly changed as well.
The entire world was shocked, all caught unprepared. (To be continued.)
