"This is fate. No one expected him to be so fierce when he attacked." The Lord of Qingjiang of Eastern Zhou, Xu Mo, said slowly, "Or rather, the timing was so good and he seized it."
The destruction of a holy land and the fall of a big shot wasn't unprecedented in the mortal world.
This matter definitely involved many people and was not a normal matter.
Many times, it would involve even more powerhouses, and everyone would keep each other in check. In the end, it would be difficult to determine the winner and loser, giving the losing side a chance to recuperate.
However, the current situation in the mortal world was rather subtle.
Among the top ten demonic sects, Skyfiend had gone into hiding, Jiang Yi and Ji Tianqiong had gone missing, Patriarch Blood River had perished, and the leader of the Wildlands Tribe had just suffered a loss under the Ancient Emperor Xi Array at the headquarters of the Ancient God Sect and had returned to the mountain to recuperate.
The Island Master of Fusang Island had arranged a duel with Tian Shaojun for the sake of the Demon Lord, and his family's lineage originated from the Xihe Realm, so he had no choice but to keep a low profile.
Azure Dragon Island Master was already very respectful to the Demon Lord. Now that there was a Netherworld God among his disciples, he felt like he was treading on thin ice and was trembling with fear.
The Sea of Misery had to rely on the protection of the Demon Venerable.
The only one left was Bie Donglai, who was guarding the furnace for the Demon Sovereign.
Finally, Mountain Chieftain Yan Ran was singled out by Chen Luoyang. Strictly speaking, Mountain Chieftain Yan Ran was also injured.
As for the ten most powerful cultivators of the Righteous Alliance, the old Sword Immortal was recovering from serious injuries, Mr. Tianji was dead, the Great Emperor of Western Qin was in trouble, the Head of the Green Bull Temple had returned to the Qingwei Realm, and the master of the Heaven Pool and Emperor Chu were in closed-door training.
Only the abbot of the Western Paradise, Huihui, was entangled with the abbot of the Boundless Temple, Fakong of the Sea of Bitterness. The Empress of Dongzhou and the Sword Master of the North Sea were busy pursuing the God of the Underworld under the orders of the Supreme Being.
Even without Xu Peng's matter, Sword Master of the North Sea Bamboo Roc had always lived in seclusion, rarely venturing into the mortal world, and was even on good terms with Chen Luoyang.
Finally, Crane Immortal Li Hushuang had to stay in East Zhou to help protect him, as well as protect the old Sword Immortal who was recuperating.
Cheng Shu Zhi and Xu Mo, the two Eastern Zhou experts, still have some concerns that are not known to outsiders.
Even without the matter of the God of the Underworld, His Majesty would most likely not intervene in the incident at Yan Ran Mountain.
It was not entirely because Chen Luoyang had just visited Eastern Zhou and the two sides had reached a tacit understanding.
Instead, it was the Greater Demon named Feng Ang, who was backed by the Mountain and Sea Realm. His arrival in the mortal world concerned the Mortal Emperor Mausoleum and the Paragon of two Realms, and Chen Luoyang.
Before this was cleared up, Eastern Zhou would not act rashly.
Thus, for a time, there was actually no one in the mortal world who could restrain Chen Luoyang, and this was not even including the parasol tree he had planted.
However, what made everyone speechless was that even if Chen Changsheng planted a parasol tree, it would only result in mutual destruction for the sacred land forces that had a powerhouse overseeing them.
After all, it was Chen Mou who took the initiative to kick down their mountain gate, and not the Wildlands Tribe Leader who took the initiative to challenge them.
Although the Ancient Formation of Emperor Xi was powerful, it required time to activate and stabilize the formation. For a giant Martial Venerable, as long as they did not fight head-on, they would have a chance to escape.
But Chen Luoyang didn't plant parasol trees, and Han Shang failed. What else was there to say?
The battle at Yan Ran Mountain made the heroes of the mortal world sigh at Chen Luoyang's ability to pick the right time, but they were also secretly shocked.
Everyone had underestimated Chen Luoyang's strength.
A Martial Saint had confronted a giant Martial Venerable head-on, and not only had he won, but he had also taken his life. This was unprecedented in the mortal world.
There might not be a successor, but there must have been no predecessor.
"Mister Cheng, you were nearby to watch the battle, right?" Southern Chu's Cloud Capital King Cheng Jinjun looked at Cheng Shuzhi and asked softly.
"Rain Master," Cheng Shuzhi nodded. "The one who came from your side was Senior Cheng, right?"
Chen Luoyang, as a Martial Saint, had challenged a giant Martial Venerable, shocking the world.
When the cultivators of the mortal world received the news, most of them rushed to the North Sea to watch the battle.
Chen Luoyang didn't care.
However, the others didn't dare to get too close. They only watched from afar. Although some details couldn't be seen clearly, it was already shocking.
Southern Chu's Old Prince Cheng Jiongting had uncharacteristically left Southern Chu and personally come to the North Sea. Eastern Zhou's second in command, Cheng Shuzhi, had come.
"When Old Granduncle returned from the battle, the first thing he said was …" Cheng Jinjun took a deep breath. "Chen Luoyang isn't injured."
A Martial Saint had challenged a Martial Venerable without being injured and killed on the spot!
This result was even more frightening.
In a battle between giants, even if victory and defeat had been decided, it was still rare to kill one of them without paying any price. This often meant that there was a clear gap in strength between the two sides.
However, the one who had killed Mountain Chieftain Yan Ran, Han Shang, was a Martial Saint.
"The Demon Emperor has many treasures on him. Sect Leader Han's family isn't as rich as his," Cheng Shuzhi said. "However, the Demon Emperor's shocking skills can already be said to have filled the heavenly chasm. He is not inferior to a level nineteen Martial Venerable. He truly is a giant."
Martial Saint, a giant.
"It looks like it's going to be another Heavenly Demon Ye." Cheng Jinjun's expression was solemn. "The so-called common master of the Demonic Path, I'm afraid this is only his first step. In the end, it will be the entire Mortal World, right?"
He looked at Cheng Shuzhi and Xu Mo. "After the Demonic Path, it will be the Righteous Path and us. If this continues, it will definitely be a situation where we will be defeated one by one."
"It's taking control of the Mortal World on behalf of his Master and Supreme Martial Venerable," Xu Mo said Slowly.
Cheng Jinjun's expression became even more solemn.
Compared to the Heavenly Demon Ye of the past, there was still a gap between this young man surnamed Chen.
If one Han Shang wasn't his match, what about three or five?
What about eight or ten?
What about all the experts of the Mortal World gathered together?
Due to various reasons, although everyone couldn't find time to work together, if a person like Heavenly Demon Ye really appeared in the Mortal World, they would be in the same boat. They had no choice but to work together. At that time, everything else could only be put aside.
However, Chen Luoyang also had something that Heavenly Demon Ye didn't have.
Facing the Demon Venerable's successor, the heroes of the Mortal World more or less had some reservations.
Perhaps some people like the King of the Wildlands Tribe did as they pleased, but not everyone was the same.
Abbot Fa Kong of the Bitter Sea Faction, Island Master Azure Dragon, and Island Master Fusang were examples.
It was also because Chen Luoyang was the successor of the Mortal World Supreme Martial Venerable that the two Holy Lands of the Demonic Path, Black Water Extreme Palace and Swallow Mountain, knelt together.
If they submitted to the successor of the Mortal World Supreme Martial Venerable, their sects might have better development in the Mortal World. This was completely different from being swallowed by the Ancient God. The psychological bottom line was too far apart.
If Jiang Yi had fought the same way, eighty percent of the people of Black Water Extreme Palace and Swallow Mountain would not have submitted. They would either fight to the death or flee.
However, Chen Luoyang came, and the result was that he alone became the ruler of the three Holy Lands.
"The Holy Lands of the Martial Dao can change their Sect Masters, but our situation is different …" Cheng Jinjun sighed.
The three Dynasties were born to be enemies, but in this aspect, they had the same standpoint.
Xu Mo was silent, while Cheng Shuzhi spread his palms. "There is nothing we can think of now. His Majesty has an errand from the Mortal World Supreme Martial Venerable. Your Majesty is in seclusion. Let's see what the Demon Emperor plans next. To be honest, he hasn't unified the Demonic Path yet."
Fusang Island was in seclusion, but its future largely depended on the result of the battle between the Demon Venerable and Tian Shaojun.
The Blood River Patriarch died, and Blood River retreated into the Blood Sea to recuperate, waiting for the opportunity to make a comeback.
Moreover …
"There is also that old demon Heavenly Demon Ye," Xu Mo said as they walked.
Cheng Jinjun nodded slightly and said no more, but he was still worried.
The three of them arrived at the Black Water Extreme Palace, and the Demon Palace Elder Wen Xinzhi personally received them.
Apart from them, there were also people from other forces, and they were basically the top experts of each force.
This included Azure Dragon Island and Boundless Temple, which had always been on good terms with Chen Luoyang, and the Wildlands, which had a tense relationship not long ago.
Even the Western Qin Dynasty, which was in a mess internally and badly battered, sent people to congratulate and attend the ceremony.
Today's ceremony affected the entire Human World.
When people from all sides met, they had to communicate with each other.
Many people hoped to meet Chen Luoyang in private, mainly to find out Chen Luoyang's next thoughts and actions.
This young man's every move flashed the attention of the entire Human World.
"Master Yuan Chi, please wait for a moment. The Palace Lord will see you later." Elder Wen led the representative of the Sea of Misery, Yuan Chi Demon Monk, to a large hall, and a Demon Palace disciple immediately served tea and snacks.
In the hall, Cheng Shuzhi, Cheng Jinjun, Xu Mo, and the others were all curious.
The people of the Sea of Misery were also here, so who was Chen Luoyang's priority?
Among those present, one of the Ten Heroes of the Human World, Yuan Chi Demon Monk, represented the Sea of Misery, which had always been on good terms with Chen Luoyang.
The "Rain Master" of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, Cheng Shuzhi, was one of the top figures in the world other than the magnates.
Now that they were all here, the only ones in front of them were the Martial Venerables.
Yu Shan Ming, who was the representative of the Wildlands, looked at an Azure Dragon Island elder next to him: "Is Island Master Bao here?"
The other shook his head: "Island Master has received orders from the Sovereign to pursue Xu … Peng. She already has some clues, so she can't leave right now. She specially ordered I to come in her place and prepare gifts to apologize to the Demon King."
Not Azure Dragon Island Master?
Everyone was surprised.
The Sea of Misery's abbot Fa Kong was currently wrestling with the West Sky's abbot Pu Hui, so he definitely wouldn't be here. Everyone knew this.
Then who could it be?
Dark North Sword Master?
Could it be "Mad Emperor" Bie Donglai?
Everyone was deep in thought. At this time, a Demon Palace disciple suddenly announced that the Palace Lord had arrived.
Then, everyone saw two people walk into the hall together.
One was Chen Luoyang.
The other was dressed in white, with hemp shoes and a black sheathed long blade at his waist.
Standing there, he was like a divine tree that reached to the heavens. Below him was the reincarnation cycle of the vast ocean, and above him was the Great Sun Golden Crow.
When everyone in the hall saw him and Chen Luoyang appear together, they instantly became silent.
One of the ten strongest of the Red Dust Demonic Dao, Fu Sang Island Master Tian Sheng Hai?
Because of the arranged battle between Sovereign Tong Xi and Young Master Tian Sheng Hai, Fu Sang Island had been keeping a low profile to avoid suspicion. They had also temporarily put aside their past grudges with Chen Luoyang.
Chen Luoyang was now active in the mortal world, and Fu Sang Island Master pretended to be deaf and mute. Everyone could understand.
But now, at Chen Luoyang's ascension ceremony, Fu Sang Island Master actually came in person?
From the looks of it, he wasn't here to cause trouble, but to congratulate.
Everyone in the hall looked at each other and had the same thought.
… Is the Red Dust Demonic Dao really going to be unified?
