Rumble!
A white light suddenly exploded in the cave.
Daoist Huanshan immediately sheathed his sword and grabbed Bai Songzi's neck with one hand, restraining him.
"Immortal Elder, please have mercy!" Three figures rushed in from outside the cave.
The person in the lead was none other than Longhe Zhi, the sect master of the Clear Crane Sect.
The moment they saw Taoist Huanshan clutching Bai Songzi's neck with one hand, their hearts beat wildly in fright.
Longhe Zhi braced himself and stepped forward to explain, "You might not know this, Immortal Venerable, but this Crane King Cave is of the same lineage as our Dao Sect. It's our Clear Crane Sect's Divine Beast Guardian …" He hoped that the other party would let him off on account of the fact that they were both from the Dao Sect.
"Clear Crane Sect?" Daoist Huanshan was taken aback. "You're just a small, unknown sect. I can destroy you with a flip of my hand. How dare you step into this mess?"
"Immortal senior, why can't you be lenient when possible? Although the Clear Crane Sect isn't a major Dao sect, our patriarchs and ancestors have gone out to roam the world and haven't returned yet … If news of this gets out and our Clear Crane Sect's patriarch finds out …" Longhe Zhi advised anxiously.
"Hahahaha! It was just a small sect. Even if they were given ten thousand years, what kind of experts could they produce? So what if it got out? Go ahead and spread the news. Let's see if there's an elite behind your Clear Crane Sect who'll cause trouble for me, Huanshan! "Taoist Huanshan burst out laughing.
Longhe Zhi's face flushed red. A cultivator's temperament was perfect, but they valued their pride the most. The other party was blatantly looking down on the entire Clear Crane Sect.
Although the Clear Crane Sect was small, it was an old sect that had been passed down for many years, after all. He did not know the background of this Taoist. But to be so arrogant, he must have extraordinary skills!
"That's enough." Taoist Huanshan's gaze fell on Bai Songzi, who was still in his hand.
"Tell me, your choice, surrender, or die?"
All of Bai Songzi's strength was sealed by the spiritual energy in his body. His opponent was not on the same level as him. Just one hand of spiritual energy suppression was enough to make him unable to resist. Reduced to meat on the chopping block.
"You … let … them … all … go first!" He struggled to speak.
"Looks like you have deep feelings for this Crane King Cave and the Clear Crane Sect?" Taoist Huanshan smiled. "That won't do. What if you still don't respond after they leave? I've made up my mind. If you don't agree, I'll slaughter this Crane King Cave and the Clear Crane Sect. Don't worry, I've covered up this forest before coming here. Even if something happens, no one will know it was me. "
It was just a small sect with a few hundred years of history. He could destroy it with a flip of his hand. There was no need to waste words.
Bai Songzi was instantly enraged, and traces of blood flowed out from the corners of his eyes.
Chi!
At that moment, Bao Ruqing, who was standing behind Longhe Zhi, suddenly released a white feather-shaped ray of light.
The ray of light shot out of the hole and exploded in the sky in the blink of an eye, turning into a large amount of firework-like specks of light that scattered down.
"Is this your distress signal? I want to see what kind of reclusive expert you can summon. I'll be waiting here. If you're so capable, ask the Clear Crane Sect's elites to look for me, "Huan Shan said with a laugh.
Boom!!
Suddenly, the ground shook violently.
The intense shaking and vibrations caused Taoist Huanshan's body to sway slightly. The rest of the people were even more shocked.
Boom!!
Another loud noise was heard.
"This is …!?" Taoist Huanshan's expression changed slightly.
He moved his feet, and instantly drifted away. He flew to the entrance of the Crane King Cave and looked outside.
A grayish-white giant that was several hundred meters tall was walking toward the Crane King Cave.
A handsome man dressed in white feathers stood silently on the giant's right shoulder. The man's skin was fair, and he had a muscular build. The feathers on his body were long and slender. It was as if a living white crane was curling around his right shoulder.
What shocked Taoist Huanshan the most was that a huge "crane" character was clearly carved on the giant's chest.
"Looks like I've returned at the right time." A pure white diamond-shaped gem faintly appeared behind Lu Sheng. Countless pitch-black cracks extended out of the gem like a totem, resembling countless tree branches.
"Boom!"
In an instant, the giant's right hand grabbed toward Taoist Huanshan at lightning speed. It was so fast that it covered 1,000 meters in an instant.
The air exploded, and the mountain shattered. In an instant, the ground within a radius of 1,000 meters shook violently. The mountain ridge where the Crane King Cave was located suddenly cracked.
From above, it looked as if a huge dragon's back had been broken on the spot. The terrain of the mountain ridge, which had lasted for thousands of years, cracked in an instant.
…
…
Great Yin, Yin Capital, Moon Scar Palace.
Inside the pure white palace, the white-haired old man who was resting with his eyes closed suddenly trembled. He opened his eyes slowly.
"Finally … it's here … I've finally sensed it after crossing countless worlds …" The old man's huge body that was more than 10 meters tall slowly left the chair that was carved with countless flowers, birds, insects, and fishes.
He walked slowly to the balcony of the palace, and looked out through the dark clouds that covered the Yin Capital. His murky gaze seemed to be able to penetrate the countless dark clouds, and see an extremely distant story.
"Jing Hui." A beautiful woman in a pure black dress slowly appeared behind him. The two of them were about the same height.
The woman's lips were a deep purplish-black. She only had a single eye that took up most of her face. Scarlet fluorescence shone faintly from her single eye. Although her face did not resemble a human's, the woman's figure was unusually hot. Her curves were almost perfect.
"What did you see this time?" the beautiful woman asked in a deep voice.
The old man turned around.
"Ever since you invited me to stay here 80,000 years ago, this is the third time I've seen such a change."
"What change? Speak clearly," the woman in the black dress asked impatiently.
"It's not the Devil World, nor is it those little fellows that operate in the dark. Instead, it's the undulations of the Void Root that came from another huge world far away, "the old man answered with a smile. He was not angered by the other party's impatience at all.
"The Legend of the Overlord that you prophesied a long time ago?" The beautiful woman narrowed her eyes slightly.
"Yes, I saw the starting point. It's the trembling of the Void Root. You should know what that means," the old man said in a deep voice.
The beautiful woman fell silent.
After a moment, she spoke again slowly.
"There's one more variable … Even so, the position of the Overlord isn't fixed. It's just a fellow that coincidentally matches the characteristics of the galaxy's roots. If I kill him, will I be able to snatch the position of the Overlord? "
"Of course … The Overlord is the strongest. The weak have no right to participate in this feast." The old man smiled and nodded. "Moreover, even without this proof, as the Mother Of Pain, the Mother of Dusk who rules over the Pain Galaxy, you have the potential to become the Overlord.
"There are four positions in total, and only the first one has appeared. There's no hurry … "A ferocious glint flashed in the Mother Of Pain's eyes. She turned around and slowly turned into black smoke, disappearing from the palace.
…
…
"Boom!!!"
The mountains cracked, and the earth trembled.
Countless gravel and soil were compressed by a huge force, and exploded in all directions. The entire Crane King Cave seemed to have been rained down by a rain of gravel.
The area in front of the Crane King Cave completely disappeared, and only an oval crater that was 100 meters deep was left on the ground.
Lu Sheng leaped down lightly, and landed on the edge of the crater with a thud. He looked down at the thick white smoke at the bottom of the crater.
"This is too boring. I won't die just like that, right?" His expression was completely different from before.
In the past, he was cautious, careful, and crazy. Now, he was absolutely confident. He was so confident that he even had a hint of arrogance.
His experience of close to a hundred years allowed him to see clearly not only reincarnation, but also himself.
"I haven't even used one percent of my strength." Suddenly, the eyes of the white crane feather on Lu Sheng's shoulders lit up with red light.
A shadow suddenly appeared behind Lu Sheng, and took form. It was Taoist Huanshan.
He held a jade scepter in his hand, and his hair was disheveled. Threads of white smoke lingered around him.
"Heaven and Earth Reverse Hold, Sun and Moon Inflict Damage! Hit! "
A beam of colorful light shot out from the top of the jade scepter at lightning speed, and shone on Lu Sheng's back.
Unexpectedly, the moment the colorful light appeared, a huge stone arm came crashing down from the side.
Taoist Huanshan was caught off guard, and was hit by the stone arm. Countless threads of white smoke around his body formed many round discs, attempting to block the huge impact.
However, it was to no avail. The white discs shattered and exploded. Taoist Huanshan did not even have the time to grunt before he was sent flying, and crashed into the ground nearby.
The colorful light that shone on Lu Sheng's back was like countless little bugs, trying to burrow into Lu Sheng's clothes and skin. However, they were firmly blocked by a transparent membrane. After a while, they dispersed automatically.
Lu Sheng turned around and looked at the place where Taoist Huanshan had landed.
"He can still resist? Interesting? "
"All Spirits Return to Simplicity! Open! "
In an instant, a huge, distorted aura surged into the sky. It circled once in the air, and turned into a small colorful person that was half a meter tall. It sat cross-legged in the air.
The small person was like a miniature version of Taoist Huanshan. He wore a full set of purple-gold armor, and had two extra arms on his back. Each of the arms held a golden sword.
The stone giant threw a punch, but it was as if he was hitting thin air. He could not touch the small person at all.
"Move the Mountains and Overturn the Seas, Shift the Stars!" The small person raised its four arms high, and suddenly spun toward Lu Sheng. The four golden swords lit up with runes in four different colors — red, white, orange, and blue.
The runes shot out from the golden swords. They grew larger and larger, and descended in all directions.
In an instant, the sky above Lu Sheng's head darkened.
In the middle of the four runes, a pitch-black mountain that was immeasurably large was moved over out of thin air.
The mountain was too big. The shadow it cast alone covered the land for thousands of miles.
"Hahahaha! Interesting! This is too interesting! "Lu Sheng's eyes widened, and he was equally excited.
He had just come out of seclusion, and he had already encountered such an opponent. His blood was already boiling!
It had been too long! It had been too long since he had a real, crazy battle.
"I'll show you my true power after I've comprehended reincarnation." He suddenly spread his arms wide.
Countless black smoke surged out from the gem behind him. In an instant, the black smoke covered an area of several thousand meters. It was even larger than the shadow.
Large amounts of black smoke drowned the ground, and dyed it black. It was as if a huge black lake had formed.
"Come out! Qianshen! "The eyes of the white crane feathers on Lu Sheng's body shone with red light like two miniature suns.
A rumbling sound came from the black lake. A terrifying giant crane that was several thousand meters in length slowly rose.
Black wings, a red crown, a golden beak, and pitch-black feathers.
The giant crane spread its wings. Its pitch-black wings were filled with countless golden eyes.
Even stranger, only its upper body was that of a crane. Its lower body was still that of a huge human. This was a terrifying monster with a crane's head and a human's body.
"Screech!"
The giant crane suddenly raised its head, flapped its wings, and charged toward the pitch-black mountain that was falling down from the sky!
