"Everyone, don't panic. Wait here, I'll go find someone to ask about the situation." Xiao Niao shouted in a low voice, nodded towards Tang Huan, and her figure instantly disappeared from the edge of the plaza.
"Listen to Senior Sister Xiao, calm down."
Tang Huan also laughed, and then slightly closed her eyes. Seeing that, everyone could only forcefully suppress the anxiety in their hearts, and force themselves to calm down.
Completely sealing off the sect protecting formation was an extremely extreme way to defend against the enemy.
Generally speaking, such an action would only be taken when one encountered a great danger that was difficult to defend against by conventional means.
Sealing the sect was indeed able to block the enemies outside the sect, but after the sect protecting formation was completely sealed, the sect would be isolated from the outside world. If the sect's various resources could not be replenished, it would be quickly consumed. After a long time, although the sect's inheritance could be preserved, the sect's strength would definitely continue to decline.
Therefore, no sect would be willing to seal their sect unless they had to play.
It seemed that in the ten years that the "Myriad Domain Dao Arts" had been opened, the Emperor Dragon's Heavenly Palace had encountered a great calamity. Even the Nine-Colored Immortal Sect's Sect Master, Xiao Zihan, was unable to deal with it, which was why the sect had been completely sealed.
Tang Huan's thoughts raced, and a chill flashed past his narrow eyes.
Although he did not know what had happened, the accuracy of his judgement was unquestionable. Not only did the number of people in Jade Imperial City decrease drastically, the entire city was filled with a desolate and desolate aura. It was as if the residents of the city could no longer see any hope.
Whoosh.
Not long after, the sound of something tearing through the air could be heard.
Two figures flew over, and in an instant, they landed in front of Tang Huan and the others. Other than Xiao Niao, they also brought along a tall and sturdy blue-clothed old man.
"Elder Sun?"
Tang Huan looked at the blue clothed old man in shock, and her expression instantly changed, "Your cultivation …"
Tang Huan had always been extremely grateful and respectful towards Sun Kui. Back then, he was just a small Heaven Man, and it was Sun Kui who brought him from Nether Cloud City to Jade Imperial City and joined the Emperor Dragon's Heavenly Palace. If not for Sun Kui, Tang Huan's cultivation path would not have been so smooth.
Ten years ago, although Sun Kui's cultivation wasn't considered to be at the top amongst the elders of the Emperor Dragon's Heavenly Palace, he could still be considered an expert. At all times, he could give off an aura that was as majestic as a mountain.
But the current Sun Kui, that kind of aura had completely disappeared. His hair was completely white, his cheeks were filled with ravines, and even his back was a bit stooped. He looked as if he had aged a few decades compared to ten years ago. What was even more shocking was that the current him no longer had the aura of a Marquis of Heaven.
"Crippled …" Sun Kui smiled bitterly and sighed.
"Crippled?"
Tang Huan's eyes turned cold, and in between mind instructs (in a second), a strand of the power of the God Creation Crystal shot out from the depths of his soul and entered Sun Kui's Dantian. An instant later, the situation in his Dantian appeared in Tang Huan's mind. Although his Dao Nascent Soul still existed, it was already covered in dense cracks.
Not only that, the cracks had even spread into the Dao crystal.
The current Sun Kui was just like an ordinary person, he could not circulate his cultivation technique, otherwise, the cracked Dao Nascent Soul would immediately collapse, and then his soul would scatter. There would be no way to save him.
Xiao Niao's pretty face was also incomparably gloomy. It was obvious that she was already clear about Sun Kui's injuries. Although Xiang Miaomiao and the others did not know the specifics of the situation, when they heard Sun Kui's words, their expressions were filled with anger. A dignified elder of the Emperor Dragon's Heavenly Palace had actually had his cultivation crippled.
"What a vicious method!"
The anger in Tang Huan's eyes was already somewhat difficult to contain. She took a deep breath and said, "Elder, who did it?"
In a normal battle, it was impossible to cause such an injury. This was because no one would be able to control their strength so precisely when fighting, not even a Heavenly King would be able to do so.
If the injuries of Sun Kui's Nascent Soul were any heavier, his life would be in danger. If it were any lighter, he could still use the power of medicinal pills to treat it. But now, this injury could not take his life, nor could he recover. He could only watch himself die of old age as an ordinary person.
To a former Marquis of Heaven, this could be said to be a fate worse than death.
The person who attacked was also extremely vicious. He should have completely controlled Sun Kui and caused him to lose his ability to resist. Then, he used a method to leave such an injury in his Nascent Soul … Furthermore, it was very likely that the person who attacked was a Heavenly King Stage powerhouse. During a battle, it would be difficult for the Heavenly King to control his opponent's injuries so accurately. However, when they were not fighting, it would not be difficult for the Heavenly King to do so.
"Let's not talk about this small matter for now."
Sun Kui waved his hand, his gaze sweeping across the crowd, and he couldn't help but reveal an excited smile, "Tang Huan, I never thought that all of you would return safely, and not a single one of you would be missing. Good! Good! It's good that you're back! However, you can't stay here for long. Hurry up and leave. Don't let those people find you. "
As he finished speaking, the excitement between Sun Kui's brows had already turned into anxiety and worry.
Now that his cultivation was crippled, he was naturally unable to determine the cultivation and strength of Tang Huan, Xiao Niao and the others. It was naturally reasonable for him to be worried like this.
"Elder Sun, don't worry about that."
"Big Brother Tang Huan is now an Inferior Heavenly King, Senior Sister Xiao Niao is also an Inferior Heavenly King, and this guy called Jin Hong is Big Brother's servant, also an Inferior Heavenly King. With three Inferior Heavenly Kings here, who else do you think is worth us escaping from in the current Crimson Radiance Sect?"
"Three Inferior Heavenly Kings?"
Hearing this, Sun Kui's mind was greatly shaken, he simply could not believe his own ears. It had been so many years since a single Heavenly King had appeared in the Emperor Dragon's Heavenly Palace, but now, the Emperor Dragon's Heavenly Palace actually had three Inferior Heavenly Kings … At this moment, Sun Kui felt as if he had been struck by a great joy, and tears streamed down his face.
Xiao Niao also said somewhat anxiously, "Right, Elder Sun, what exactly happened to our Emperor Dragon's Heavenly Palace these past few years?"
"Alright, alright, I'll tell you now."
"..."
Ten years ago, when the Primal Beginning Immortal Domain opened, more than two thousand marquis from hundreds of domains entered.
Originally, everything was calm and peaceful, but not long after, a rumor spread out that the masters of the various sects had long since given the order to the cultivators who had entered the Primal Beginning Immortal Domain. The moment they entered the Immortal Seeking Hall, they had to join hands and completely annihilate the dozens of people from the Emperor Dragon's Heavenly Palace.
After hearing about this rumor, Xiao Zihan, Nie Cangsheng, Du Xinghe, and the other upper echelons of the Emperor Dragon's Heavenly Palace were all shocked.
