The enmity between the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe and mankind had been going on for several dozen millenniums.
Innumerable friends and family members had died at the hands of both sides, and the grudge between them was not something that could be resolved with words or kindness.
Given that the strongest Otherworldly Demon Emperor of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe was trapped here, how could the Ancient Sages of the Mingshi Tang possibly let this opportunity slip by?
"Zhang Hongtian, what about you?"
Seeing that these people were going to gang up on him as well, Sovereign Chen Yong wasn't surprised at all.
"My Zhang family has fought more than a hundred battles with the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe. My father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and ancestors have all died at your hands! Your hands are stained with the blood of my Zhang family members. While it's not too honorable for you to bully me with numbers, this isn't a fair duel. Even if Kong Shi were to learn of this, he wouldn't blame you for it! "
Zhang Hongtian unsheathed his sword as he glared at the figures before him with a righteous look in his eyes.
If a master teacher wanted to fight, he had to give a valid reason so that he could charge forward bravely.
"Ancestor Hongtian …"
Seeing that Sovereign Chen Yong was about to make a move as well, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but speak up.
With so many people surrounding him and the Stellar Map, it was likely that Sovereign Chen Yong would be in deep trouble this time around.
While he didn't have a good impression of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe, Wu Chen had always been by his side, and he couldn't help but find it hard to accept being surrounded by so many people.
"The Otherworldly Demonic Tribe isn't worthy of our sympathy!"
Knowing what Zhang Xuan was going to say, Zhang Hongtian waved his hand dismissively.
After so many years of war, the two races were no longer on the same side.
Without their number one Sovereign Chen Yong, the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe would have been reduced to a pile of loose sand, unable to stand against mankind anymore.
This was equivalent to resolving a huge problem that had plagued them for many years!
It was for this reason that the Hundred Schools of Philosophers had mobilized so many Ancient Sages to deal with the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe.
"Very well. What about the rest of you?"
Seeing that the three powers had joined forces, Sovereign Chen Yong turned his gaze to the beasts not too far away.
"We won't help you, and we don't wish to get involved in this either. We just want to obtain the Great Codex Spring!" Venerable White replied.
"Since you aren't siding with either side, please back down. Otherwise, if you remain in the battlefield, there's no guarantee that you won't be killed …"
Sovereign Chen Yong sneered coldly as he flicked the saber in his hand, causing a whimpering sound to echo in the air. Without any hesitation, he swiftly released his aura, leaving those who saw it with a deep impression.
Back when he had disguised himself as Wu Chen, he had used the energy that only master teachers were capable of wielding. However, at this very moment, he had reverted back to his original form and utilized the Zhenqi of Slaughter of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe. In an instant, his fighting prowess had more than doubled.
"Do it!"
Seeing that Ancient Sage Yan Qing's aura was about to reach its peak, Ancient Sage Yan Qing knew that it would be more difficult for him to kill Ancient Sage Yan Qing if he did not make a move now. Thus, he hurled the halberd in his hand toward Ancient Sage Yan Qing.
"Go!"
Bo Yu's ghost claw tore through space.
The attacks of the two super experts turned into two streaks of light, one black and one white, piercing forward like meteors.
"Good!"
After reverting back to his original form, Sovereign Chen Yong roared furiously. His voice boomed like the rumbling of thunder as he raised his saber and slashed it forward.
Si la!
A pitch-black fissure appeared in the space sealed by the Stellar Atlas. As the saber collided with the two powerful attacks, the ancient halberd and ghost claw were sent flying back like two baseball bats.
Sovereign Chen Yong stepped forward, and with a wave of his saber, he managed to fend off the attacks of the other Ancient Sages. Following which, he charged forward once more, aiming for Yan Qing's head.
Even with Ancient Sage Yan Qing's Blood Reincarnation realm cultivation, he was still unable to dodge this attack.
Weng!
Just as the strongest expert of the Hundred Schools of Philosophers was about to be killed, a burst of sword qi suddenly broke through the limitations of space and time and appeared right before Ancient Sage Yan Qing. If Ancient Sage Yan Qing did not defend himself, he would have sustained severe injuries.
Sovereign Chen Yong raised his saber.
Ding ding ding ding!
The sound of a rain of swords reverberated in the air as Zhang Hongtian advanced forward with a flair reminiscent of a sword immortal.
Zhang Xuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva as he watched the battle unfold.
As expected of one of the strongest experts on the Master Teacher Continent, his every move harnessed the power of laws. It was fortunate that he had distanced himself from the battle, or else he would have been torn to shreds by now.
Sovereign Chen Yong was truly powerful. Despite being surrounded by so many Ancient Sages, he was still able to maintain his composure without the slightest hint of panic.
Peng!
The battle grew more and more intense. All of a sudden, a deep groan sounded, and a figure plummeted from the sky.
An Ancient Sage had fallen!
"It's a Great Philosopher realm Otherworldly Demon!"
Zhang Xuan recognized the corpse. It was one of Old Geezer Yu's subordinates, and he possessed the strength of an Ancient Sage 2-dan cultivator.
"This is good stuff!"
Knowing that a corpse of this tier was hard to come by, Zhang Xuan walked up to the corpse and flicked it with the Dragonbone Divine Spear.
Hula!
He kept the corpse into his storage ring.
Boom!
Shortly after he stored the corpse, another Ancient Sage from the Hundred Schools of Philosophers fell from the sky.
Not only did the Otherworldly Demons die, the experts of the Hundred Schools of Philosophers also began to fall.
Following which was the Mingshi Tang.
He could collect the corpses of the Otherworldly Demons, but the Hundred Schools of Philosophers and the Mingshi Tang chose not to touch them.
After all, he was a master teacher.
However, while he couldn't collect the corpses of the Ancient Sages, he did manage to collect quite a few of them.
As the battle grew more intense, more and more Ancient Sages died.
In less than ten minutes, less than half of the twenty Ancient Sages were left alive.
However, at this moment, Sovereign Chen Yong was already severely wounded.
Ancient Sage Yan Qing and Zhang Hongtian's bodies were also riddled with ghastly wounds, and they were panting heavily.
On the other hand, Old Geezer Yu's injuries were the least severe.
It wasn't that he was strong, but he was cunning enough to deal with the two in front of him head-on.
"As expected of the number one Emperor of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe. I didn't think that even with so many of us working together, we would still suffer such heavy losses …" Zhang Hongtian looked at Sovereign Chen Yong in awe.
He had thought that he was already standing at the very top of the world, but who could have thought that even with so many of them working together, he would still be able to kill so many of them?
"You aren't weak either, but if that's all you have, I'm afraid that you won't be able to kill me today!"
Sovereign Chen Yong stood upright with his saber in hand, looking as valiant as ever.
"Even if I have to risk my life, I'll drag you down with me!" Zhang Hongtian spat through gritted teeth.
"Let's give it a try then …"
Sovereign Chen Yong sneered coldly. Just as he was about to continue, he suddenly felt the space trapped by the map shuddering violently.
Hong long long!
It was as if the world was being torn apart. A pure white light shone through the map, and a massive altar slowly materialized.
The light shrouded Lozosy, who was in the midst of assimilating the Great Codex of Spring and Autumn.
"It's a success!"
Sovereign Chen Yong's eyes lit up.
He had been preparing for this very moment when he left the square. Seeing that it was a success, he couldn't help but feel excited.
Si la!
The light from the altar shone down on Lozosy, and her Ancient Sage cultivation seemed to have been unsealed once more, causing her to grow even more powerful.
In the face of such might, the Great Codex of Spring and Autumn was unable to withstand it any longer, and it was swiftly assimilated.
