"Everyone has underestimated you."
Swallow Mountain Chieftain Han Shang looked at the young man in front of him, "Now that things have come to this, it's useless to say anything else. I only hope that you don't end my Swallow Mountain's legacy. My sect has no enmity with you. Without me, my sect will be the same as Blackwater Extreme Palace."
As the leader of the demonic path, Han Shang was very open-minded about such things.
How could he not want to conquer other experts and rule the world?
As long as it was beneficial to this final goal, it didn't matter if there was any old enmity between them.
He only hated himself for being one step behind and not being a match for Chen Luoyang.
However, since there was no old enmity, as long as Swallow Mountain submitted like Blackwater Extreme Palace, their disciples wouldn't be purged.
Chen Luoyang's treatment of Blackwater Extreme Palace showed that he didn't care about the Ancient God.
If the Hierarch of Devil religion could become the Palace Master of Devil Palace, he could naturally become the new Swallow Mountain Chieftain and rule over the North Sea.
But this didn't include King Fuyao, Han Shang himself.
It wasn't that Chen Luoyang couldn't tolerate him, but Han Shang's own pride wouldn't allow him to lower his head, even if he lost to Chen Luoyang, even if the other was a Supremacy's successor.
"Those who obey me will prosper, those who oppose me will die," Chen Luoyang said indifferently.
Today, he was here to kill. Whether or not he could subdue Swallow Mountain was secondary.
He needed to accumulate more dark gold nectar in the white jade bottle.
Searching for Jiang Yi's information had used up a lot, so he naturally needed to replenish it.
Between Jiang Yi and Han Shang, Han Shang would definitely be killed first. Jiang Yi could still keep him alive to see if that Netherworld god "Ghost" would appear again.
"Please give this to my sect, they will know what to do." Han Shang took out a jade tablet and wrote an order in the air. Light runes were engraved on the jade tablet and then it floated in front of Chen Luoyang.
"Today, it seems that my fate has come to an end, but I'm not one to sit and wait for death. If you want to take my life, I'll need you to do something." After handing over the jade token, Han Shang took a deep breath and stood in the boundless darkness. Astral winds swept around him, revealing the fierce nature of a trapped beast.
However, Chen Luoyang did not care about his opponent's desperate struggle. After putting away the jade token, he casually stood with his hands behind his back.
"I admire your backbone, but unfortunately …" He shook his head, "From the moment you entered, you were already dead."
Mountain Chieftain Yan Ran, Han Shang's heart skipped a beat. He suddenly realized that in the darkness surrounding his body, there were two black suns that were faintly discernible, rising slowly.
Each of the two dark suns seemed to contain a small ball of light.
In the center of the two balls of light were two pages of the Heavenly Book. One was written with the word "Illusion" and the other with the word "Life".
With the support of the two pages of the Heavenly Book, the two black suns had a stronger suction force, especially towards the "Tranquility" Heavenly Book on Mountain Chieftain Yan Ran's body. It was hard for him, who was at the end of his rope, to resist. He could only watch as the "Tranquility" Heavenly Book left his body.
Mountain Chieftain Yan Ran, Han Shang wanted to stop it, but his injuries were extremely severe. Just the instability of the Heavenly Book made it hard for him to suppress his injuries, which erupted like a flood.
The "Tranquility" Heavenly Book flew away from Han Shang's body without any hindrance. It was swallowed by the "Black Sun" Heavenly Book and fell into Chen Luoyang's hands.
Chen Luoyang stood still without any intention of making a move. He calmly took over the "Tranquility" Heavenly Book and browsed through it. The other two pages of the Heavenly Book also disappeared.
Han Shang struggled in his grave injuries, but he realized that inside the black coffin, the aura of death was surging from all directions, eroding his body.
At this moment, he was surrounded by the aura of death and could not move. Even if he wanted to fight to the death, he did not have the strength to do so.
This Mountain Chieftain Yan Ran seemed to be drowning. He could only struggle helplessly to delay himself from sinking into the water. However, the shadow of death was getting closer and closer to him, and he could not even grab a life-saving straw.
Just as Chen Luoyang said, with Han Shang's current physical condition, his fate was already sealed after he was trapped in the black coffin.
Chen Luoyang did not need to exert any effort to make a move. All he had to do was stand by the shore in Silence and watch Han Shang sink into the water.
After conquering the Absolute Black Water Palace, he took a few days to come to the North Sea's Yan Ran Mountain. It was to study and master this black coffin.
Although he could not say that he had mastered it, he could more or less put it to good use.
Chen Luoyang carefully studied the mysteries of the "Tranquility" Heavenly Book. After a while, he nodded and kept the Heavenly Book.
He then took a step forward and came to the side of Mountain Chieftain Yan Ran.
The other party was already at his last gasp, heavily injured and on the verge of death. Under the invasion of the boundless aura of death, even if he wanted to fight with Chen Luoyang, he would not have the strength to do so.
Chen Luoyang calmly extended his hand and opened his fingers, grabbing the top of the other party's head.
The corner of Han Shang's mouth twitched, as if revealing a mocking smile.
"I've heard that you've mastered the Art of Eclipse Purloin. However, let's not waste our efforts now."
If a Martial Sage wanted to break through to Martial Venerable, he had to break through the Heavenly Gate and break through the Death Tribulations.
This Heavenly Chasm allowed the strength of a Martial Venerable to far surpass that of a Martial Sage. There was a huge difference in strength between the two.
Because of this, Martial Sages using demonic arts such as the Heaven-Devouring Demonic Art, Boundless Sea of Blood, and Art of Eclipse Purloin would not have any effect on Martial Venerables.
Otherwise, the Ancient God and the Blood River Lineage would have all sorts of thoughts and ideas.
Han Shang could guess Chen Luoyang's intentions with just a gesture, but he did not care.
However, Han Shang's expression changed very quickly.
It was as if a huge black sun had appeared in his vision.
Under the cover of the "black sun", the power of this Mountain Chieftain Yan Ran quickly flowed into the "black sun".
Han Shang's body seemed to move, as if he wanted to struggle, but he quickly gave up.
"That's right, when we exchanged blows just now, I had a premonition that the supreme art you've cultivated has already surpassed the Art of Eclipse Purloin, Heaven-Devouring Demonic Art, and Boundless Sea of Blood." Slowly, Han Shang closed his eyes, "An anomaly …"
Chen Luoyang waved his other hand in the air, and a black orb flew out from Han Shang's body.
After receiving the orb and examining it, he casually asked, "Is this the treasure you used to protect yourself by gathering thousands of spirits just now?"
Mountain Chieftain Yan Ran closed his eyes and did not speak.
Chen Luoyang smiled with a hint of playfulness, "Did you get it from the Black Water Extreme Palace? Is it recent? "
"…" Mountain Chieftain Yan Ran Han Shang opened his eyes, frowning as he looked at Chen Luoyang with difficulty.
Chen Luoyang looked him in the eye and said, "Seems to be the case."
Han Shang was silent for a while, then suddenly said, "This black coffin was unearthed in the imperial capital of Western Qin, but rumor has it that it has something to do with the Black Water Extreme Palace. Did you also get this black coffin from there?"
Chen Luoyang smiled but did not answer. He just played with the Thousand-Soul Orb with his fingertips, and seemed to be talking to himself, "Many people know that you have the Tomes of Arcane, but no one knew about this thing before. It's very secretive. I'm afraid it's not just a treasure to protect yourself?"
He looked at Han Shang, "You were too enthusiastic about the war of Eastern Zhou, especially about conquering the imperial capital, Tianfeng City. Could it be that you want to avenge Ancestor Blood River?
Everyone guessed that you had other intentions when you took such a risk, but they could not figure out the reason. Now it seems that no one knew that you had such a hidden treasure.
So, what do you want from Tianfeng City of Eastern Zhou, and it has something to do with this treasure? Can you achieve great things by combining the two? "
Mountain Master Yan Ran fixed his eyes on Chen Luoyang, not taking his eyes off him.
The pain and weakness caused by the "black sun" continuously devouring his cultivation had been forgotten by this time.
After a long while, Mountain Master Yan Ran, Han Shang, exhaled and said, "I admire you."
He said no more, closed his eyes again, and his face was ashen.
"You're welcome." Chen Luoyang smiled, and the "black sun" that had already drained his opponent expanded, swallowing the powerhouse in front of him who was at the end of his road.
Chen Luoyang's eyes returned to the Thousand-Soul Orb in front of him, and he did not say a word.
After thinking for a while, he put away the Thousand-Soul Orb and got out of the black coffin.
When he appeared again, he was already outside Mountain Master Yan Ran.
Just like when he first arrived, Chen Luoyang stood leisurely at the foot of the mountain, looking at the mountain gate of the Holy Land of Diabolism in front of him.
The only difference was that at this moment, there was a corpse floating in the air next to him.
The corpse of Mountain Master Yan Ran, Han Shang.
Everyone on the mountain was dead silent.
Although they already had a bad premonition just now, now that they really saw their Sect Leader fall, everyone was still stunned on the spot.
Chen Luoyang did not say anything, and only waved his hand.
Han Shang's corpse floated in the air and automatically flew up the mountain.
There was a slight commotion on the mountain. Wang Zhaoying and the others had complicated expressions, but they still received their sect master's corpse first.
Seeing the token placed on the corpse, everyone looked at each other, speechless for a moment.
After a long time, someone broke the silence, and said indignantly, "Are we actually going to submit to the person who killed our master, and worship him as our master?!"
An old man beside him said, "Calm down, this is the sect master's last will. It is to protect our lives, and also to protect our sect's legacy."
Another elder said in a muffled voice, "It's true that the sect master is thinking for us, but are we really going to be so spineless?
Black Water Extreme Palace surrendered, and it was Ji Tianqiong who abandoned them. Our sect is different from them today!
Our Yan Ran Mountain has thousands of years of foundation, painstakingly built, just for today. Sect master just died in battle, and we immediately surrender to the enemy?
Such a Yan Ran Mountain is better than having no Yan Ran Mountain. Thousands of years ago, there was no Yan Ran Mountain in this world, why fight to the death? "
His words made some people look ashamed, and some people's blood boil.
But there were also people who shook their heads, "Where there is life, there is hope. Today, we are not as skilled as others, and we should work hard to repay them in the future. The situation in the mortal world is turbulent, and it changes in an instant. Who knows what will happen tomorrow? Sect master thought of this, and that's why he wanted us to stay alive. "
The martial practitioners of Yan Ran Mountain were divided, and they were in a stalemate. Soon, they split into two factions.
Chen Luoyang did not seem to care about this. He sat leisurely by the mountain stream, and looked at the "Tranquility" Heavenly Book. The setting sun shone on him, and it was pure gold.
It was a peaceful and peaceful scene, but it made people feel so pressured that they almost suffocated.
Everyone knew that the Demon Emperor could not wait forever.
Today, they had to take down Yan Ran Mountain.
If they did not submit, they would be destroyed.
The dispute on the mountain became more and more intense. In the end, conflict broke out, and they even fought for a short time.
The fighting quickly stopped.
The great formation surrounding the mountain gate was removed, and the astral wind layer that had not dissipated for years slowly disappeared.
Chen Luoyang dusted his clothes, and stood up. He walked under the setting sun with his hands behind his back, and walked toward the other side's mountain gate.
