Previously, there was the Ancient God Jiang Yi, the Green Bull Temple's Yu Qingniu, and now, there was the Black Water Extreme Palace's Ji Tianqiong.
They all announced to the public that they were in closed-door training, but when the enemies arrived, they found out that they were long gone.
The Green Bull Temple was slightly better, at least the higher-ups of the temple knew that their temple master was not here, and now they were playing an empty city.
But in the eyes of outsiders, they were as miserable as the Ancient God and the Black Water Extreme Palace.
Sovereign Chu also announced that he was in closed-door training, and it had been about a year now.
In the past, this was nothing, just a very common thing.
But now, it made the Southern Chu people a little uncertain.
"If the big shots in closed-door training all disappeared for no reason, then those who are not in closed-door training can't be together." Old Duke Cheng Jiongting squinted his eyes and said unhurriedly.
The others also calmed down when they heard this.
Cheng Longyuan frowned, "I just didn't think that the change in the Black Water Extreme Palace would benefit the Ancient God."
"To be precise, it is Chen Luoyang who benefited. Whether the Ancient God benefited or not, we still have to see in the future." Cheng Jiongting said slowly.
Cheng Longyuan and the others nodded.
"It is also a good timing, there are not many who can disturb him at this time."
There was no need to mention the Southern Chu people, but Sovereign Chu was in closed-door training, and it was good enough that no one came to disturb him.
The Xian Tian Palace was good at defending, but not good at attacking.
The Western Qin Great Emperor had fallen, and the Western Qin Dynasty could not even protect itself.
The West Sky and the Demonic Buddha were competing.
The Barbarian Tribe King had just suffered under Emperor Xi's Ancient Array Formation and returned to the Barbarian Tribe to recuperate. It was said that he was also in closed-door training to find a way to break the ancient array formation.
Chen Luoyang had just gone to the East Zhou and Heavenly River, and the two sides seemed to have a secret discussion, so it was unlikely that they would fall out immediately.
The North Sea Yan Ranshan and the Black Water Extreme Palace were both in the north, and they were neighbors. With such a big change happening to their neighbors, Yan Ranshan would not take it lightly. The Black Water Extreme Palace was empty, of course, it was better to benefit themselves than to benefit others.
However, Yan Ranshan had just suffered a great defeat in Dongzhou and was almost kicked out of the sect by the Dongzhou Empress. He had not even caught his breath and was caught unprepared by his neighbor's matter.
In particular, the Hierarch of the Ancient God, Chen Luoyang, had just met with the Empress of Eastern Zhou, Xu Ruotong. Yan Ranshan was also worried that the two would conspire and take advantage of the situation to deal with his family.
"Most importantly, rumor has it that Chen Luoyang didn't use Emperor Xi's Ancient Formation when he breached the Black Water Extreme Palace …" someone said in a low voice.
Everyone fell silent.
"At first, I thought it was someone on par with Cheng Yingtian and Lian Buyi. Who would have thought …" A Southern Chu King sighed.
Southern Chu couldn't ignore Chen Luoyang's rise.
The two sides were old enemies, and Chen Luoyang himself had killed many members of the Southern Chu imperial family.
Even if Southern Chu was willing to swallow this hatred, Chen Luoyang's wild ambition made them uneasy.
"Chen Luoyang's momentum is growing. If this continues, I'm afraid he will become another Skyscraping Demon." Cheng Longyuan exhaled a mouthful of foul air.
Although this person was still a Martial Sage, the momentum of his growth over the past year was simply too ferocious, startling everyone.
"There are too many things happening in the world of mortals. No one has the time to care about him. Now, even one giant can't take him down. If so many giants take action, it may violate the taboo of the Supremes," someone said with a wry smile.
Although he was said to be another Skyscraping Demon, Chen Luoyang was more at ease than Heavenly Demon Ye.
If Heavenly Demon Ye were to start all over again, he would definitely be besieged by the world of mortals, and he would not be able to rise again.
However, as the successor of the Supremes, Chen Luoyang still gave everyone some misgivings. It was a headache.
Slowly, the Old Lord Cheng Jiongting said, "Right now, it is difficult for the Great Chu to do anything alone. We can only wait and see and wait for His Majesty to come out of seclusion."
The others were helpless, but there was nothing they could do.
At this moment, someone suddenly made an urgent report.
"In the north, Chen Luoyang's new movements? Quickly bring it to me. "Cheng Longyuan took a jade slip and checked its contents. He was stunned on the spot.
When the others saw this, they couldn't help but feel their hearts skip a beat.
The Old Lord Cheng Jiongting was no longer dozing off. There seemed to be golden flames flashing in his eyes.
He waved his hand in the air, and the jade slip directly flew out of Cheng Longyuan's hand and fell in front of him.
After reading the information in the jade slip, the Old Lord fell silent for a moment.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Cheng Jiongting and Cheng Longyuan.
Cheng Longyuan had already come back to his senses. He said with difficulty, "Chen Luoyang left the Black Water Extreme Palace the day before yesterday."
The Southern Chu people were stunned when they heard this.
He had just conquered the Black Water Extreme Palace, subdued the heroes, and become the new palace lord. Now was the time to sort out the Black Water Extreme Palace and gain control of it. How could he suddenly leave at such a critical moment and give up halfway?
Cheng Longyuan's expression was indescribable. "Chen Luoyang … went to the North Sea."
The North Sea?
Everyone was stunned again.
They had thought that Chen Luoyang's departure was because there had been internal changes in the Ancient God Sect and they were urgently waiting for him to return to deal with it. But now it seemed that was not the case.
In the North Sea, the territory of another sacred land of the Demonic Path, Swallow Mountain, was adjacent to the Black Water Extreme Palace's sphere of influence.
Chen Luoyang left the Black Water Extreme Palace behind and went to Swallow Mountain in the North Sea. What was he trying to do?
Some people seemed to have thought of something, but were momentarily frightened by their own bold guess.
As expected, Cheng Longyuan exhaled and Slowly said, "He issued a formal challenge to Swallow Mountain Lord Han Shang of the North Sea. He wants to compete with Han Shang!"
The surrounding people were silent.
A Martial Saint had challenged a Martial Venerable!
Everyone who heard the news was so shocked that they couldn't say a word.
…
The news was not hidden and quickly spread throughout the Mortal World.
The people of the Ancient God Sect were shocked by their Hierarch's big move.
He had just conquered the Black Water Extreme Palace and he immediately challenged Swallow Mountain in the North Sea?
And he was openly challenging the Lord of Swallow Mountain, "King Fuyao" Han Shang. Such boldness shocked the whole world.
The people of the Black Water Extreme Palace who had just surrendered were even more speechless.
They, who had been secretly criticizing Chen Luoyang for being unreliable, now felt a slight chill down their backs.
In the Demon Palace, Chen Luoyang didn't care if his foundation in the Demon Palace was shallow or not, and he didn't bother to win people over.
He would fight Swallow Mountain again to establish his supreme authority. Those who follow me will prosper. The second half of the sentence was "Those who oppose me will die."
When he returned to the Black Water Extreme Palace from Swallow Mountain, it would be the official Palace Lord succession ceremony. If there was a problem, he would start a massacre.
Wen Xinzhi and the others could read Chen Luoyang's unspoken words.
He didn't need to say much. Everything was left to Wen Xinzhi and the others to handle.
If you don't handle it properly, I'll deal with you. It was that simple.
The people of the Black Water Extreme Palace smiled bitterly.
The only suspense right now was the result of the battle between this new Palace Lord and King Fuyao.
They wanted to see if he was really confident enough to swallow the world, or if he was overestimating himself and making a fool of himself.
To be honest, many people secretly hoped to see him make a fool of himself.
But as soon as they thought of the scene of Chen Luoyang riding alone to break through the enemy's formation and take down the Black Water Extreme Palace, they lost confidence …
While the Black Water Extreme Palace martial practitioners were conflicted, the Swallow Mountain martial practitioners were shocked and angry.
Just a moment ago, everyone had been discussing how Chen Luoyang had taken down the Blackwater Extreme Palace and plotting how Swallow Ran Mountain should handle the situation. In the end, Chen Luoyang actually wanted to challenge them as well.
Just now, they were discussing whether they had a chance to intervene and take a share of the neighboring Black Water Extreme Palace's territory. They didn't expect that Chen Luoyang would also target them.
This kid's appetite was too big. Wasn't he afraid of being stuffed?
Taking up so much territory, would he be able to hold it?
Especially when he directly challenged the Mountain Lord of Swallow Mountain?
A Martial Sage took the initiative to challenge a big shot?
The Swallow Mountain disciples subconsciously felt that it was ridiculous.
But at this moment, outside the mountain, Chen Luoyang's expression was calm, as if he wasn't challenging a big shot.
He looked at the towering mountains in front of him in Silence.
It was as if a layer of black mist covered the mountains.
But it wasn't mist.
It was all piercingly cold astral winds.
The astral winds were densely packed. Under extreme compression, they seemed to be solid, showing a kind of static state as they enveloped and protected Swallow Mountain.
Chen Luoyang and the East Zhou Empress didn't lie to Feng Ang.
In the Mortal World, the place with the densest astral winds was indeed Swallow Mountain in the North Sea.
Swallow Mountain had been managed by many generations. They used the terrain conditions here to build their own mountain protection formation. It was both offensive and defensive, and it was powerful.
At this moment, the endless astral winds seemed to have stopped. But if someone tried to barge in, they would immediately face a storm of death.
However, to the people of Swallow Mountain, the usually impregnable and reassuring formation seemed to be the most unreliable now.
It wasn't because Chen Luoyang had broken the Blackwater Extreme Palace's formation.
Unlike the Demon Empress Ji Tianqiong, the Blackwater Extreme Palace's formation could only be supported by Wen Xinzhi and other Martial Sages. Swallow Mountain's Mountain Lord, Han Shang, was in the mountain.
The power of a big shot controlling the formation far exceeded that of a Martial Sage.
But what made the martial practitioners of Swallow Mountain nervous was that Chen Luoyang had the Golden Parasol Tree with him. According to the rumors, Han Shang might not be able to stop Chen Luoyang from planting the tree here.
Although they could take revenge on the Blackwater Extreme Palace or the Ancient God as long as Han Shang left, it would be too humiliating to be kicked out of their own nest.
The other people of Swallow Mountain were more likely to suffer.
"King Fuyao, do you dare to fight?"
Chen Luoyang's tone was calm.
Han Shang's figure appeared at the top of Swallow Mountain's main peak, facing Chen Luoyang from afar. Although they were far apart, they could see each other clearly.
"Hierarch Chen is courageous enough. I can naturally fulfill your wish. However, this battle is too ridiculous. It will be easy for thieves to take advantage of it."
Han Shang shook his head lightly, "I heard that Hierarch Chen has just met Emperor Zhou. Could it be that you are here to open up the eyes of Eastern Zhou to please Emperor Zhou and seek the Phoenix?"
Chen Luoyang was surprised, "It's not that complicated."
He looked up at Swallow Mountain's Mountain Lord and smiled, "It's just because you're an eyesore."
The people of Swallow Mountain were furious when they heard this.
Han Shang, as the Lord of the holy land, was calm as usual and did not show his emotions.
"Alright, then let me see how capable the Supreme's disciple is. Since you took the initiative to provoke him, I believe the Supreme won't blame me for bullying the weak."
"I also believe that my master will not interfere," Chen Luoyang raised a finger and shook it lightly, "I can't think of a reason why he saved you."
