"Sect Leader, let's wake the Elder Ancestor up!" an elder shouted.
A handsome middle-aged man stood in the void far away and looked down at the situation. He watched coldly as Chu Li killed his sect's masters as if he was slaughtering chickens without batting an eyelid.
He was followed by four elders with white hair and a youthful complexion like immortals.
The four elders were furious and agitated. They wanted to devour Chu Li.
The middle-aged man remained silent.
His purple robe fluttered in the wind and his handsome face was gloomy. His eyes flashed like cold stars and his killing intent soared into the sky. The air around him seemed to freeze.
Unfortunately, this power had no effect on Chu Li who was far away.
"Sect Leader, if we don't wake the Elder Ancestor up, we won't have a chance anymore!" the elder continued to persuade.
The middle-aged man sighed and shook his head.
The four elders looked at him anxiously.
"Sect Master, at this point, if we still don't wake up the patriarch, then our Heavenly Net Sect will be destroyed just like the Blood Sun Sect. We'll all be sinners of the sect, and we won't be able to face our ancestors," said another elder in a low voice.
The other three elders nodded and looked at him anxiously.
Tian Luo Sect Leader Gan Chenggong shook his head and sighed. "Do you think it's easy to wake the Elder Ancestor up?"
"We have to wake him up no matter how difficult it is," the four elders said and stared at him with bright eyes.
Gan Chenggong glanced at the four elders and shook his head. "Elders, you don't know the inside story. Once the Elder Ancestor is awakened, it'll be a double-edged sword. Although we can destroy Monk Ding Ru, Tian Luo Sect will also become the target of public criticism. It'll be difficult for us to survive."
"Why?" The four elders frowned.
Gan Chenggong said, "The Elder Ancestor's secret skill can freeze their lifespan, but it'll cause their temperament to change. They'll become cruel, bloodthirsty, and cold-blooded. Once they wake up, they'll kill everyone they see, even our Tian Luo Sect disciples."
"Then let the disciples retreat first and wake the Elder Ancestor up."
"The person who awakens the Elder Ancestor must sacrifice his life."
"I'll do it." The elder who spoke earlier said, "If Monk Ding Ru continues killing, we'll die too. I'd rather wake the Elder Ancestor up. If I die, I'll be satisfied if I can drag Monk Ding Ru down with me!"
"One person isn't enough, we need five." Gan Chenggong shook his head lightly. "All five of us will die."
"Sect master, then we'll all die," said the other three elders icily.
Their gazes were cold as they glared at the faintly discernible Chu Li without hesitation.
"Alright." Gan Chenggong looked up at the sky and sighed. "I hope I didn't make the wrong move …"
"We're all facing the danger of our sects being destroyed. It's impossible to count on others to save us." An elder shook his head and said, "If we die, then we die. If we can get rid of Monk Ding Ru, then we won't feel wronged."
They had previously looked down on Chu Li, thinking that the Blood Sun Sect and the younger generation of disciples were useless, which was why they couldn't do anything to this monk. Although the Demon Subduing Palace Leader was powerful, he wasn't invincible.
Now that he had personally experienced Chu Li's prowess, he realized that he had been stubborn and had underestimated Chu Li. However, it was all too late.
It was impossible to count on the other ten sects to help. The Twelve Devil's Sects had always been fighting amongst themselves. Now that Miss Zhou had quelled the internal strife, it was impossible for them to help each other unless Miss Zhou appeared.
"Ding Ru, don't be so arrogant!" Suddenly, a shout rang out.
Twenty-two people appeared in the void. They were all elders with white beards and eyebrows. The elder in the lead was tall and sturdy, like an iron tower standing tall in the void. His voice reverberated in the air like a huge bell.
Chu Li's figure was like a ghost, faintly discernible within the Tian Luo Sect. Every time he appeared, he would kill a person. None of them could withstand his attacks, and it was as easy as mowing grass.
He paid no attention to the twenty-two people who appeared in the void and continued to kill.
"Set up the formation!" the burly elder shouted.
The twenty-two elders immediately took their positions in the air and formed a formation that enveloped Chu Li.
Chu Li's figure flashed and disappeared from their field of vision. When he appeared in another place, he had killed another person.
The twenty-two elders turned around and once again flew into the air, enveloping Chu Li like a large net.
There were three masters from the Tian Luo Sect within the range of their formation. Their bodies froze for a moment as if they had been immobilized. They could not move at all, but their bloodshot eyes kept darting around.
However, Chu Li was not affected at all. In a flash, he disappeared again.
The expressions of the twenty-two elders changed.
They did not expect the formation set up by the masters from various sects to be ineffective. Even such a powerful formation could not stop him.
Once they stepped into their respective positions, the formation was activated. The formation known as the Inescapable Net was used to lock the void and stagnate inner energy. Within its range, no one could move the void or use their inner energy. It was extremely powerful.
"Let's go!" the burly elder said.
The twenty-two elders floated away.
Gan Chenggong, who was initially relieved, shook his head and his expression darkened.
"Damn it!" The other four elders clenched their teeth.
They were initially overjoyed. This time, someone had finally broken the pattern of the Twelve Demonic Sects' internal strife and came to rescue them. However, they did not expect them to retreat as soon as they arrived. They did not have any fighting spirit and were just doing their job half-heartedly.
It was obvious that Miss Zhou had pressured them to rescue them. However, when they saw that things were not going well, they immediately retreated. They cherished their lives and watched helplessly as the Tian Luo Sect disciples were killed. It was really hateful.
"Sect Leader, we can't rely on others. Let's do it ourselves," one of the elders said.
"Alright." Gan Chenggong nodded slowly.
The five of them disappeared in a flash and appeared in front of a cave at the peak of the mountain.
Gan Chenggong glanced at the five of them and said in a deep voice, "Four elders, it's not too late to regret now. As long as we leave this place, we can rebuild the Tian Luo Sect even if we destroy it."
The four elders pondered.
Although they were not afraid of death, the arrival of the twenty-two elders gave them hope.
"Boom!" A muffled sound rang out, and the ground shook.
They looked up and saw four middle-aged men turning into dust. Chu Li, who was next to them, had already moved to another place and killed another middle-aged man with a wave of his hand. He did it easily and skillfully.
When they saw this, their anger surged like lava.
"Sect Leader, the Tian Luo Sect can't be destroyed." One of the elders said, "Even if we die, there will be other disciples to inherit the Tian Luo Sect. Moreover, the inheritance of the Tian Luo Sect has been preserved. After the Tian Luo Sect is destroyed, someone will activate the inheritance of the Tian Luo Sect."
"Sigh." Gan Chenggong shook his head and said, "Alright then, let's wake the elders."
The four elders nodded slowly.
They could not stand the fact that Chu Li was killing their own disciples so recklessly and yet they could not do anything about it. This humiliation and anger made them determined to drag Chu Li along even if they had to die.
Gan Chenggong said, "Follow me."
"Yes," the four elders said.
The five of them disappeared from the peak of the mountain in a flash and appeared in another valley in the next moment.
The angry roars and screams had already disappeared. They were a thousand miles away from the Tian Luo Sect and it was impossible for them to hear what was happening there.
The five of them stood in front of a cliff in the valley. Gan Chenggong pointed at the cliff and said in a deep voice, "The ancestors are sleeping here. We need to sacrifice our essence, qi, and spirit with the supreme Heaven Luo to wake them up."
"Let's begin, Sect Leader," one of the elders said.
"Supreme Tian Luo!" Gan Chenggong shouted.
