In the wee hours of the morning, the sky began to brighten, and a faint trace of white appeared on the eastern horizon.
On the cliff behind the Asura Gate Peak, Chen Zong was still swinging his sword.
Although he had reached a bottleneck, it did not mean that he had given up. Opportunities were not obtained by waiting, but by finding them.
Once the sun rose, Chen Zong would set out again, heading to Tai Luo City to pick off five inferior forces.
In the distance, several figures flew in from all directions, with the same goal in mind: Asura Gate!
Every figure exuded a frightening aura, terrifying, shocking, and tyrannical to the extreme. Their aura was not concealed in the slightest, like a roaring storm, shaking the heavens and earth.
The mountain wind whistled, whistling, and the frightening aura spread rapidly.
On the edge of the cliff, Chen Zong, who was swinging his sword, paused for a moment, then sheathed his sword.
He had already sensed several tyrannical auras approaching. There were many of them, and each aura carried a murderous intent.
They came with ill intentions!
The corners of Chen Zong's mouth curled into a faint smile, then he turned and left.
Soon, the figures exuding tyrannical auras and murderous intent arrived outside the Asura Gate Main Hall, hovering in the air, surrounding the Asura Gate in a circular formation.
Their auras wantonly filled the air, and their divine senses swept out in all directions, causing the Asura Gate disciples to tense up, their hairs to stand on end, and a chill to their bones, causing them to tremble uncontrollably.
This was caused by the huge difference in cultivation, realm, and strength.
Instantly, it seemed as if a gust of cool breeze had blown by, and it soundlessly reduced the pressure all the disciples endured to the limit in an instant, and it just happened to be within a range that they could endure.
This change was so silent that no one noticed it. Even the disciples themselves only felt that it was strange, but did not think too much about it. There was no time for them to think too much, as they had to circulate their cultivation techniques and concentrate their will to resist the pressure.
Resisting the pressure at the limit was just right, and it was a kind of training.
As for the experts who came with murderous intent, they did not notice this change. Their target was Chen Zong, and the Asura Gate disciples, they could easily kill them.
In a flash, Chen Zong appeared in front of everyone.
With a glance, Chen Zong roughly knew who the visitor was by sensing his aura.
Of the five inferior forces in Grand Luo City, there were Ninth and Eighth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage powerhouses. In addition, there were two from Yin Crane Sect, and three from Hundred Blaze Sect, Astronomical Phenomenon Sect, and Lei Family.
There were a total of sixteen Ninth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage powerhouses in the Ancient Martial Sect.
On the other hand, there were fifteen Eighth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage experts. This kind of combat strength was terrifying. If Chen Zong's strength was really only at the peak of the Ninth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage, he definitely wouldn't have survived.
Their own family members knew about their own affairs, but others didn't.
In the face of so many experts, Chen Zong didn't look nervous at all. Instead, he was at ease.
"What brings you all here?" Chen Zong asked unhurriedly.
"You're the Second Elder of Asura Sect. You've gone against the law and acted like a demon. You've brought about terrible consequences to Grand Luo City. Your crimes are unforgivable." The Hundred Blaze Sect's Great Elder immediately reprimanded Chen Zong, saying that he was an unforgivable criminal of the Demonic Dao, standing on the moral high ground.
"Now, if you cripple your own cultivation, I can make the decision to spare your life and the Asura Sect. Otherwise, I won't spare your life." The Great Elder of the Lei Family seemed to be surrounded by countless purple electric arcs. His voice was filled with an astonishing will, like the rolling thunder of the heavens.
Would Chen Zong cripple his own cultivation?
Of course not!
Even if he couldn't defeat them, what would be the result of crippling his own cultivation?
He would be at the mercy of others.
With his cultivation, the other party might be a little cautious and afraid of losses. However, without his cultivation, he would be like a tiger that had lost its claws and teeth. He would be at the mercy of the other party. Whether he would be killed or imprisoned, it would be entirely up to the other party.
"Cripple your own cultivation. Even if it's not for yourself, you have to think of the people of Asura Sect." The Great Elder of Yin Crane Sect said slowly. His voice was soft and gentle, and his tone was sincere and sincere. It was as if he was thinking from Chen Zong's perspective.
The others didn't say anything. They either looked indifferent or had a mocking smile on their faces.
What would Chen Zong choose?
Would he cripple his own cultivation?
Or would he resist and be killed?
They were very confident. After all, although it wasn't the full strength of each force, it was still a very powerful force. Even a superior force would have to be cautious when facing such a force.
In the absence of a half-step Great Saint expert, whether it was the Great Luo Sect or the Burning Heart Clan, they wouldn't want to be enemies with such an alliance of experts. Because once the war started, even if they won in the end, they would suffer heavy losses.
Now, so many experts had joined forces just to deal with an Elder of the lowest ranked sect. If word got out, who knew how many people would be shocked.
It was like using a butcher's knife to kill a chicken.
However, this person was young and had extraordinary talent. Moreover, he had a grudge with them. If they didn't get rid of him as soon as possible, he would become a big problem.
In the distance, there were many people watching the battle. They were the spectators.
"Looks like there's no need for us to act. This kid won't be able to escape." In the void, an old man with a wine gourd in his hand took a big gulp of wine and wiped the wine off his beard. He was one of the experts of the Great Luo Sect.
This time, the other forces naturally wanted to join forces with the experts of the Great Luo Sect. However, as a superior force, the Great Luo Sect was extremely proud and rejected them directly.
They didn't think that a mere Second Elder of the Asura Sect would dare to attack the Great Luo Sect. That was purely suicidal.
Standing on a high ground and looking down on the other side, they saw the other side as ants.
Although they didn't make a move, the Great Luo Sect still sent people over to check out the situation.
"Old Drunkard, aren't you afraid that this kid will kill his way out of the encirclement and hide for a few decades to raise his cultivation base to the peak before coming back for revenge?" Not far away, an old man in a dark red robe with dark red eyebrows spoke in an indescribably cold voice. There seemed to be traces of fire energy lingering around him. The fire energy seemed to stir up the heat in one's heart, causing one to become restless.
"Old Red Ghost, do you think this kid has any hope of killing his way out of the encirclement?" The Great Luo Sect's Old Drunkard smiled nonchalantly.
Even if he was the one who fell into such a formation, it would be extremely difficult for him to escape unless he damaged his foundation and used a secret technique. Even then, he wasn't 100% confident.
"Hmph." Old Red Ghost snorted coldly and said no more. He was the Burning Heart Sect's Grand Elder while the Old Drunkard was the Great Luo Sect's Grand Elder. Both of them were peak Ninth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage powerhouses.
Of course, their peak Ninth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage powerhouses were not ordinary peak Ninth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage powerhouses. They had cultivated their sect's supreme Saint Grade Cultivation Method to perfection. Their strength was not something a mid-tier force's peak Ninth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage powerhouse could compare to.
In a one-on-one situation, they could easily kill their opponent.
However, in a one-on-many situation, it was hard to say.
For example, there were as many as four peak Ninth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage powerhouses, four peak Ninth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage powerhouses, and some Mastery and Intermediate Saint Rudiment Stage powerhouses.
If they joined forces, whether it was Old Red Ghost or the Old Drunkard, it would be difficult for them to gain any advantage.
A mere young man with a cultivation base at the Early Eighth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage. Although he was talented and had the strength of a peak Ninth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage powerhouse, he was probably an ordinary peak Ninth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage powerhouse.
Even the number one prodigy of Great Luo City and the number one prodigy of Heavenly Luo Sect could not fight with such strength.
How could the Asura Sect have such a person?
Talent meant a bright future. However, talent was talent, and strength was strength. They could not be mixed together.
In a situation where one's strength was not strong enough, no matter how talented one was, it would be difficult to escape death when surrounded by strong enemies.
If one died, everything would be for naught.
Taking a step back, if this young man was lucky enough to fight his way out of the encirclement, he would definitely be severely injured. When that happened, Old Red Ghost would be able to take him down directly.
A peerless prodigy who could possess the strength of a peak Ninth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage powerhouse at the Early Eighth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage must have a huge secret.
Since the Old Drunkard had appeared here, he must have such thoughts.
Now, it was time to see what would happen.
Facing so many powerhouses, Chen Zong's expression did not change at all. There was only calmness. His eyes were clear, but they were extremely deep. There seemed to be a sense of disdain in the depths of his eyes.
Indeed, in Chen Zong's eyes, the so-called powerhouses in front of him were nothing but chickens and pottery dogs.
If he wanted to, he could sweep them all away with his sword.
However, Chen Zong did not intend to do so.
First, he was unwilling to expose his full strength. It was always better to hide some of his strength. After all, there was still a strong enemy who he did not know where.
Second, he suppressed his cultivation and strength, using the pressure from his opponents to temper himself, and strive to break through the shackles and bottleneck of the Sword of Heart and Mind.
Only his other self at the Ninth Stage of Bewildering Light Stage would be his opponent.
Defeating his other self would allow him to break through the Bewildering Light Stage and take control of Bewildering Light Island. At that time, he would be able to leave the Bewildering Light Sea.
In fact, there was even another great opportunity.
Chen Zong was very tempted by the unknown great opportunity.
In summary, these so-called strong enemies in front of him were actually nothing.
Chen Zong actually had a third consideration. That was to suppress his own strength, so as to not scare off other people with ulterior motives. When the time came, he would deal with them one by one. Only then would Shura Sect be able to develop better.
Boom boom boom!
Sensing that the other party did not intend to cripple his own cultivation, and instead released his aura, Chen Zong's intention was obvious. He intended to resist until the end.
Since that was the case, there was no need to hold back.
In the blink of an eye, each and every one of the powerhouses activated their martial arts, releasing an incomparably terrifying aura. The aura was extremely tyrannical, and it was like an earth-shattering explosion.
Different martial arts practiced by different sects contained different mysteries. When they fully activated their martial arts, the effects were also different. However, there was one thing that was certain. The aura was extremely tyrannical, as if it could shatter heaven and earth.
