The old man was slightly older than Jiang Yi and younger than Du Qiming. However, his appearance was different from Jiang Yi and Du Qiming who maintained their middle-aged appearance. Instead, he looked old.
However, despite his old appearance, his spirit was hale and hearty. Standing there, he looked like a demon god with the sky above his head and the earth below his feet.
The title of "Luo Ri King" was more like a form of self-mockery. Right now, Du Qiming couldn't see any signs of fatigue from him.
Elder Du looked at him in Silence but didn't say a word.
Elder Zheng smiled, "Elder Du, it must have been hard on you."
Du Qiming said, "You can accurately grasp my whereabouts, it seems like you left someone in the sect."
"I am not the only one who is unhappy with Jiang Yi," said Zheng Chi.
Du Qiming said placidly, "But not me."
Zheng Chi sighed, "If Elder Du is not willing to go against Jiang Yi with me, can you just watch from the side and not interfere?"
Du Qiming said, "If you didn't mix with the barbarians, we might still be able to discuss this. But now that you have invited a wolf into the house, as a member of the Ancient God, I can't just sit back and do nothing."
Zheng Chi smiled when he heard this, "Elder Du's words are too hurtful."
In Xian Tian Palace, Elder You Hao's strength was no weaker than the former Palace Lord Shan Jing.
The one who restrained himself previously was Mister Tianji, Ying Xiantian, the giant of the mortal world.
But in the Ancient God, the situation was different.
Although Zheng Chi and Jiang Yi were on the same level in the past, there was a huge gap between their cultivation levels.
Different from Shan Jing of Xian Tian Palace, Jiang Yi of the Ancient God was a giant that was on the same level as Mister Tianji.
It wouldn't be easy for Zheng Chi to go against him.
He himself was well aware of this.
If it was possible, he didn't want to fall out with Mister Tianji so soon.
Unfortunately, his plan to contact Mister Tianji was exposed and now, he had no choice but to release it.
"I am also a disciple of the sect, I can't do something like inviting a wolf into the house. I am only doing this to protect myself," said Zheng Chi.
Du Qiming said, "If that's the case, you shouldn't be here."
Zheng Chiyan said, "If we really step into the Wilderness, we will truly have no choice."
"…" Du Qiming was silent for a moment before saying, "These are your own choices. You can't blame others."
Zheng Chi shook his head. "It's not my choice. Jiang Yi and I have a tacit understanding. Neither of us wants to cause a complete chaos, and the best thing to do is to maintain the status quo. Therefore, I won't go to the Wildlands, and he won't leave the headquarters."
Du Qiming frowned when he heard that.
Zheng Chi sighed, "But that young man surnamed Chen doesn't seem to think so. He wants to go all out."
"That's not surprising. It's an order from the Hierarch. What he can achieve depends on his own ability," Du Qiming said.
Zheng Chi shook his head. "I thought he was on the same side as me, but now it seems that he's not on the same side as anyone."
Du Qiming gave him a sidelong glance. "According to what you've said, you're planning to get rid of him?"
"No, I won't do that." Zheng Chi shook his head.
"But you don't want him to continue chasing after you, so you're planning to get rid of me?" Du Qiming asked.
Without Elder Du, a peak eighteenth level Martial Saint, Chen Luoyang's forces would suffer great losses. They wouldn't have an absolute advantage over Zheng Chi's forces.
If the Wildlands got involved, and Jiang Yi didn't personally take action, Chen Luoyang's forces might be in danger.
Zheng Chi said, "Elder Du, you're exaggerating. I hope you can stand by and watch."
Du Qiming's expression was as calm as a lake. "Zheng Chi, I've always known about your cultivation and strength. Many years ago, you and the Cult Master, the two young waves, had already slapped us, the old waves, onto the beach.
Now that I heard from the Hierarch that you've successfully cultivated the lost 'Nuwa', I think I'm even less of a match for you.
Even so, I'm afraid it won't be easy for you to take my life. "
"Elder Du, you're exaggerating." Zheng Chi placed his hands behind his back. "You're right. However, even if I can easily win, I don't want to fight you. I just hope that you can wait a little longer and look into the future with me."
Du Qiming's gaze sharpened. "Look into what?"
"Let's see who wins between our Sect's current Sect Master and Vice Sect Master," said Zheng Chiyan.
Du Qiming's expression became somewhat strange.
"I admit that Chen Luoyang is a rare genius. Judging from his current rise, he's comparable to Lian Buyi and the others. He's strong enough to compete for the Red Dust Ten Heroes." Elder Du stared at Zheng Chi. "The Hierarch's high regard for him is not without reason. However, he's still far from the Hierarch's level."
Even though Chen Luoyang was the leader appointed by Jiang Yi to lead the expedition against Zheng Chi, in Elder Du's eyes, when the time came, he and Elder Peng Feng would be the main force to fight against Zheng Chi, who was also at the eighteenth level.
At most, there would be Lian Buyi.
As for their Vice Hierarch, only when he reached the seventeenth level would he truly be qualified to participate in this battle.
However, although Du Qiming had such thoughts, he was not as violent as Peng Feng. Since Jiang Yi had made arrangements and given orders, he would follow them.
Zheng Chi looked at Elder Du and sighed softly, "This Deputy Sect Leader Chen's background is not simple at all. If that wasn't the case, why do you think Jiang Yi would be able to tolerate his arrogance?"
Du Qiming did not respond.
Apart from Jiang Yi's orders, the reason why he was so cautious when facing Chen Luoyang was also because of this.
This Vice Hierarch Chen's past was indeed filled with many mysteries.
He had suddenly risen in this part of the Red Dust World.
And Jiang Yi, the Hierarch of the Red Dust Ancient God's Church, had such a strange attitude toward him.
"Are the rumors true?" Elder Du suddenly asked.
Zheng Chi smiled and nodded. "Jiang Yi ordered him to be the leader and lead the army to deal with me. He had the idea of two tigers fighting.
Although Chen Luoyang is a tiger cub, if I kill him, I will be in big trouble. Jiang Yi, on the other hand, will be completely free of future troubles.
I really can't help but admire this wishful thinking. "
He first nodded, then shook his head. "But as long as we don't move, as this tiger cub grows stronger, it will be Jiang Yi's turn to have a headache."
"What's in it for you?" Du Qiming said coolly. "You are not willing to be under others. Whether it is Hierarch Jiang or Hierarch Chen, you have to rebel."
Zheng Chi said, "I have obtained time."
"That's true." Du Qiming nodded. "But to me, I feel that Hierarch Jiang is more suitable for my church."
Then, dark gold light flashed in his eyes.
A dark gold Ancient Demon God appeared in the sky. It had the body of a bird and the head of a deer. It spread its wings and flew away as fast as the wind.
Du Qiming's title was "Fei Lian King". He had mastered the "Fei Lian" of the Divine Demon Fist.
In the Mortal World, his movement technique and speed were top-notch among martial arts experts of the same level.
At this moment, Du Qiming used the fist force of the "Fei Lian" and combined it with his movement technique.
He did not want to compromise with Zheng Chi, but he did not plan to fight him head-on either.
Given his cultivation level, he might not be Zheng Chi's match, but if he wanted to run, Zheng Chi could not do anything to him.
That was how it should be …
But who knew that Zheng Chi's speed was faster than he had expected, and he caught up in an instant.
A giant god with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a snake covered the surroundings. Its power engulfed Du Qiming's "Fei Lian".
At the same time, Zheng Chi's "Fei Lian" also caught up to Du Qiming.
"Nuwa …" Du Qiming's heart sank.
"Nuwa", the Divine Demon Fist, had been passed down in the Central Plains of the Ancient God. However, it was lost in the middle.
Therefore, it was not as mysterious as Chen Luoyang's "Shennong". Few people knew its specific effects.
As an elder of the Ancient God, Du Qiming had heard about the general effects of "Nuwa" since he was young.
Nuwa mended the heavens, eliminated imperfections, and turned the tide.
"Nuwa" did not have great power, but it could turn something rotten into something magical.
One of its magical effects could be summarized as: When fighting with others, it could make up for any imperfections.
If your enemy's speed was faster than yours, you could increase your speed.
If your enemy's defense was stronger than yours, you could strengthen your defense.
And so on and so forth.
Of course, there was a limit to this kind of improvement. It depended on the specific situation.
But for Zheng Chi, whose overall strength was higher than Du Qiming's, it was undoubtedly enough.
Therefore, Zheng Chi caught up to Du Qiming in an instant. "Since Elder Du has made up your mind, I have no choice but to offend you."
After saying that, he punched out casually.
It looked like an ordinary punch, but Du Qiming could only barely parry it.
However, at the moment when Zheng Chi's punch was blocked, a third figure suddenly appeared in mid-air.
It was also a punch, aimed at Zheng Chi.
Although it was not as easy and natural as Zheng Chi's, it was still an extremely fierce punch.
It was obviously another elder of the Ancient God at the peak of the Martial Sage level, "Immortal Giant Spirit" Peng Feng!
Zheng Chi's eyes flickered slightly.
The powerful Invincible Body of Gods and Demons condensed to block the punch.
And Du Qiming, who was in front of him, simply did not counter it. Instead, he raised his Invincible Body of Gods and Demons and took Zheng Chi's punch head-on. At the same time, he counterattacked Zheng Chi in a way that would hurt both sides.
Du Qiming was knocked back by Zheng Chi.
Zheng Chi took two heavy punches at the same time, and his body also swayed a little.
Just as he was about to counterattack Peng Feng and force him back, his expression suddenly changed slightly.
He saw a strange-looking weapon appear in Peng Feng's hand. The blade was like a short knife, but it had a sawtooth.
This weapon slashed across, and a sharp, ear-piercing sound rang out in the air.
Zheng Chi's Invincible Body of Gods and Demons, which could withstand the attack of a level-18 expert head-on, was directly slashed by Peng Feng.
"… God Punishing Edge." Zheng Chi took a deep breath.
