(First Update, Second Update, 9 PM)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios At the entrance of the Shura Sect, a Sixth Level Saint Realm Elder in a grey robe stood firmly on the steps with his hands behind his back. His expression was solemn and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.
However, there was a hint of weariness on his face, as if he was exhausted. The unstable situation of the Shura Sect during this period of time had drained him mentally and physically. Not only him, but everyone else was the same.
"Who are you? What brings you to the Shura Sect? " The grey-robed Elder stared at Chen Zong. He looked young, but there was an unfathomable feeling about him. Therefore, the grey-robed Elder did not dare to act rashly in case he offended him. If the other party was strong, it would be one disaster after another for the Shura Sect.
"My name is Chen Zong. I'm here to join the Shura Sect." Chen Zong said with a smile.
The grey-robed Elder's pupils constricted when he heard this. He stared at Chen Zong as if he wanted to see through him and determine if he was telling the truth.
If it was in the past, he would not have doubted it. But now, a seemingly unfathomable person wanted to join the Shura Sect, which was already in decline and who knew how long it would last. What a joke.
The Elder was furious. This person was obviously here to make fun of the Shura Sect. It was even possible that he was sent by other sects to further suppress the Shura Sect.
"Don't be angry. I know the current situation of the Shura Sect, and what I bring is hope." Chen Zong said calmly as he stared at the grey-robed Elder without fear.
His gaze was clear and deep, without a trace of malice. The grey-robed Elder fell silent.
The two disciples guarding the entrance stared at Chen Zong without saying a word. With the Elder present, there was no room for them to interrupt.
"Please follow me." The grey-robed Elder finally opened his mouth and said.
In his heart, he more or less still held onto a trace of hope.
After all, the Shura Sect was on the verge of disbanding. However, they did not want the Shura Sect to disband. This was the root of many of them. From a very young age, they lived, cultivated, and grew up here.
As long as there was a trace of hope, they had to seize it.
Furthermore, he felt that this person was not sent by other sects to suppress the Asura Gate.
Under the guidance of the gray-robed elder, Chen Zong quickly walked up the stairs.
Subconsciously, the gray-robed elder used his full speed to test the other party, but when he found that the other party was following him casually, his heart became heavier.
Even though he wasn't the strongest person in the Asura Gate, he was still one of the top three.
If this person truly harbored ill intentions towards the Shura Sect, perhaps today would be the day that the Shura Sect was truly disbanded.
"I am the Fifth Elder of the Shura Gate." The grey-robed Elder said to Chen Zong.
It didn't take long for Chen Zong to be brought to the Asura's Gate main hall.
Although it was called a great hall, it wasn't very big. Moreover, it was a bit old and dilapidated. It seemed that it had been affected by the battle and hadn't been repaired yet.
As far as the eye could see, some of the palaces had completely collapsed.
On the whole, this was a small, run-down sect.
As the Fifth Elder stepped into the dilapidated great hall, there was only one person inside.
A burly middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes was dressed in a short grey robe. His aura was restrained, but Chen Zong could keenly feel the fluctuations of his aura, which contained a strong murderous aura.
This murderous aura wasn't formed by killing too many people, but by the Asura Gate's cultivation method.
With one glance, Chen Zong determined the middle-aged man's cultivation level.
Seventh Level Saint Realm!
"Sovereign." The Fifth Elder bowed slightly to the middle-aged man, "This person wishes to join the Asura Gate."
Hearing this, the Sovereign immediately stood up and emitted an oppressive aura. His tiger-like eyes stared at Chen Zong as if he wanted to see through him.
The Sovereign was even more surprised than the Fifth Elder.
"How should I address you?" The Sovereign spoke in a deep voice that faintly emitted an oppressive aura.
"Chen Xiu." Chen Zong replied unhurriedly.
The name he used was naturally the Asura doppelganger's name.
The name Chen Zong was relatively well-known.
Jiandi Chen Zong!
Although there were countless people in the Nine Realms of the Tianyuan Sacred Region, there were many people with the same name. In addition, it had been more than a decade since Chen Zong detonated the Nine-Colored Heavenly Flower Titled Jiandi. During this period of time, countless things big and small had happened. Moreover, Chen Zong had disappeared for more than a decade, so it was unlikely that anyone would associate him with someone else.
However, to be cautious, Chen Zong still didn't use his real name.
It was better to be safe than sorry.
Although his current strength wasn't weak, enough to erupt with the combat strength of a three-star elite, there were still four-star, five-star, six-star, and so on above three-star. There were even seven-star and eight-star existences.
Any level was stronger than he was now.
Chen Zong pondered deeply.
Firstly, he was considered famous in the Upper Yuan Realm. There was no guarantee that the news would not spread to the Highest Profundity Realm. Therefore, it was likely that many experts in the Highest Profundity Realm knew about it.
If they knew that he had appeared here, it was likely to cause unnecessary trouble.
Secondly, the news that he had escaped into the Bewildering Light Sea might also spread. If he appeared in the Highest Profundity Realm after more than a decade, wouldn't it mean that he had the ability to leave the Bewildering Light Sea?
For many experts, it would certainly be a great attraction.
Using the name Chen Xiu was different. This was the name of his doppelganger, which had never appeared before.
As for his appearance, in fact, there were many people who knew the name Chen Zong, but not many people had seen his appearance, especially in the Highest Profundity Realm.
However, out of caution, Chen Zong still made some slight adjustments to his appearance, so that he looked a little different from his original appearance.
Even those who were more familiar with him would only think that he looked a little similar to Chen Zong, nothing more.
As for why he did not let his doppelganger Chen Xiu take action directly, it was very simple. After all, Chen Xiu was not flesh and blood. He could hide it from most people, but it was difficult to hide it from some experts. If any clues were found out, the consequences would be even more serious.
His purpose was not only to revive the Shura Sect, but also to avenge the Ancient Shura King. The Ancient Shura King had been an expert of the half-step Great Saint realm for thousands of years. Now that thousands of years had passed, it was hard to say whether his strength had become even stronger.
In short, everything should be done boldly and carefully. This was also the trouble of more than a decade ago, which made Chen Zong understand this point even more.
At the end of the day, everything was due to the fact that they were not strong enough.
"Your Excellency Chen Xiu, why do you want to join the Shura Sect?" The Sect Master asked very directly. Firstly, it was because of his personality, and secondly, in the current situation, he was not in the mood to do any probing.
On the other hand, Chen Zong directly released his own aura fluctuation, which contained an extremely pure and rich evil spirit.
The Sect Master and the Fifth Elder's expressions changed. They could only feel that the evil spirit exuding from Chen Zong's body was terrifyingly pure, not knowing how much better it was than theirs. Moreover, it seemed to be of the same origin as their evil spirit.
Could it be an illusion?
Unless it was a cultivation method of the same origin, even if it was different cultivation methods of the same power, if there was no connection between them, there would be obvious differences in the power cultivated.
However, the aura fluctuation exuding from Chen Zong's body was somewhat similar to their own evil spirit.
The Sect Master and the Fifth Elder were instantly bewildered.
"In the early years, I once received the inheritance of a senior." Chen Zong smiled neither too fast nor too slow. "That senior told me that if one day, when I have the ability, I should find the Ancient Shura Sect."
"The Ancient Shura Sect!" This made the Sect Master and the Fifth Elder reminisce.
The Ancient Shura Sect represented the glorious past.
The Ancient Shura Sect represented the fallen present.
"May I know which senior's inheritance did you receive?" The Sect Master couldn't help but ask, his voice tinged with excitement.
"The cultivation methods I practice are the Incineration Asura Skill and the Incineration Asura Sword Skill." Chen Zong said, "As for the senior's honorific, it's not the right time to reveal it."
"The Incineration Asura Skill!"
"The Incineration Asura Sword Skill!"
The Sect Master and the Fifth Elder exclaimed at the same time.
These were the Ancient Shura Sect's most precious cultivation methods and martial arts.
But to them, they only existed in legends, because they had been lost thousands of years ago.
Currently, the most advanced cultivation methods and martial arts in the Ancient Shura Sect were of the Saint Grade.
Although the Incineration Asura Skill and the Sword Skill were incomplete, they were still top grade Saint Grade, not something a Saint Grade Saint Grade could compare to.
Of course, the Burning Evil Asura Skill and swordsmanship that the Ancient Asura King cultivated were not incomplete. The last two levels were completed by the Ancient Asura King himself. According to his own situation, they were only suitable for himself. Therefore, they were not passed down.
Infernal energy of the same origin!
The Incineration Asura Skill and the Sword Skill!
This caused the Sect Leader and the Fifth Elder to subconsciously feel closer to Chen Zong. Their expressions also became gentler.
The person who could pass down the Incineration Asura Skill and the Sword Skill must be an expert from the Ancient Shura Sect, probably one of the Elders.
Therefore, from a certain point of view, this Chen Xiu could be considered a member of the Ancient Shura Sect, having a relationship with the Ancient Shura Sect. It was reasonable for him to want to join the Ancient Shura Sect.
However, the Sect Master and the Fifth Elder seemed to have thought of a difficult problem, their brows furrowed.
"Little friend Chen Xiu, you should be aware of the current situation in the Ancient Shura Sect. With your ability, there is no need for you to get involved in this mess." The Sect Master thought for a moment and said in a low voice.
He was trying to persuade Chen Zong.
Of course, they were happy that Chen Zong was willing to join the Ancient Shura Sect, but they did not think it was necessary. After all, one person's strength was not enough to turn the situation around.
The disbandment of the Ancient Shura Sect seemed to be a trend, an irresistible trend.
It would be a waste of someone else's future.
Although they did not know Chen Xiu's ability and cultivation level, they knew that he was not weak. If he joined another sect, he would be valued and have a better future.
"If the Ancient Shura Sect was still strong, I wouldn't have come." Chen Zong smiled faintly, but his words revealed a shocking confidence.
