The Sword Sect.
On Calming Peak, several cultivators had solemn expressions as if they had encountered a troublesome matter.
The Calming Peak Master, the Soul Formation Stage Empty Mountain Daoist, frowned slightly and asked the other cultivators for their opinions. "What do you think of the Sourcebeast Monarch's protest?"
The most prominent figures in the Sword Sect were naturally the seven Peak Masters of the seven main peaks.
At the same time, these seven Peak Masters were high and mighty. There were many trivial matters in the sect, such as sect missions, sect benefits, diplomatic relations with the outside world, and so on. The seven Peak Masters generally didn't care about these matters.
These trivial matters were handled by cultivators of the fifth and sixth realms like them.
Calming Peak was in charge of these diplomatic relations.
"The Sourcebeast Monarch's tone is very arrogant. He actually said that our Sword Sect disciples wanted to kill his only son and wants us to give him an explanation.
Heh, not to mention that we didn't kill him, even if we did, when did our Sword Sect have to give face to a demon beast? " The Fresh Rain Daoist said sternly. His words revealed his disdain for the Sourcebeast Monarch and his pride for the Sword Sect.
"You can't say that. Not only is the Sourcebeast Monarch's cultivation at the eighth realm, but he also has a Yellow Springs Dharma Artifact. He treats the Yellow Springs Realm as his own garden and can freely enter and exit it.
In addition, with the Yellow Springs Death Qi, he's almost immortal and can be considered quite difficult to deal with. "
The Late Autumn Daoist pondered for a moment and said in detail, "The Sourcebeast Monarch's so-called explanation is actually a bluff.
His true goal is none other than to obtain some benefits from the Sword Sect and spread the news at the same time. For the sake of his son, he even dares to hold the Sword Sect accountable. In the future, no one will be foolish enough to offend his son. "
The Empty Mountain Daoist rubbed his forehead. His only thought now was to be extremely worried about his position as Calming Peak Master.
The Sword Sect disciples killed their masters. They were all bad at refining pills and refining artifacts, but when they went out, they were all experts at killing people and causing trouble.
It could be said that it was common for disciples of the Sword Sect to wander outside and eventually kill their juniors, causing their seniors to complain. He was already used to it.
In consideration of the Sword Sect's status and power, most people didn't dare to directly condemn them. However, this kind of condemnation and asking for an explanation was not a problem.
After all, no matter how strong your Sword Sect is, you still have to pay attention to a certain extent, and you can't make enemies for no reason.
This was because if there were too many unrighteous acts, sooner or later, they would be attacked by the masses.
"It's fine if I can't beat or scold these precious sword cultivators in the sect.
If you want to kill someone, then so be it. You can just kill them and clean up the loose ends.
In the end, not only did they fail to kill him, they even got a hold of his weakness. Now, we have to clean up their mess. " Empty Mountain Daoist sighed and said, "Moreover, this Sourcemonster King is not a weakling. If we are not in the right, we can't directly reject his request."
Daoist Clearspring said firmly, "Under normal circumstances, Demon Monarch Sourceroot's method should work. After all, it's for the sake of an eighth-rank Demon Monarch, and the request isn't a big deal. Most cultivators will agree."
The truth was that the Primordial Demon King's request was not harsh. There were two points.
The first was to ask the Sword Sect to confine the two disciples that attacked his son as punishment.
The second was to ask the Sword Sect to compensate him for his son's troublesome medical expenses as an apology.
Neither of these requests were excessive. They were more to show that they were in the right. If the Primordial Demon King really wanted to make things difficult for the Sword Sect, he wouldn't dare to go so far.
"We don't know the specifics. Why did our Sword Sect disciples attack Demon Monarch Sourcemonster? Were they really in the wrong? We don't know the details yet. We definitely can't agree to this. "
Daoist Empty Mountain thought for a moment, then slowly said, "In the past ten thousand years, the Sword Sect has never admitted defeat without knowing the truth."
Daoist Newmoon suggested, "Why don't we summon those two Sword Sect disciples and ask them about the details?"
"The main reason is that those two disciples haven't returned to the sect yet." Daoist Empty Mountain spread his hands and said, "Moreover, one of them is our Sword Sect's chief disciple, Ji Chuan, and the other is Lu Qingshan, who entered the sect as the champion of the Seven Regions Dao Exchange."
His words were shocking. Everyone present couldn't help but take a deep breath.
These two disciples were not to be trifled with.
"Setting aside Ji Chuan and Lu Qingshan's status for now, there is one more thing that everyone should know." Daoist Newmoon suddenly said in a stern voice, "Demon Monarch Sourcemonster is urgently urging us to give him an explanation as soon as possible.
That's not all, but there is even a faint hint of threat in his words. It seems like he will attack our Sword Sect disciples if we don't give him an explanation. "
"Threatening our Sword Sect?" The most mild-tempered Daoist Clear Spring immediately raised his eyebrows in anger. "Did Demon Monarch Sourcemonster borrow ten guts from some old dog? How dare he? "
Late Autumn Daoist suggested, "Peak master Empty Mountain, I feel that this matter is not up to us to decide. Why don't we report this matter to our superiors and let the Sword Cometh Peak master and Haoran Peak master deal with it."
"Report to the Sword Cometh Peak master and Haoran Peak master? This … the great sword cultivators of our sect have always dealt with problems in a very simple manner. I'm sure everyone here knows this … "Murmured Clear Spring Daoist.
"Then what should we do? One is peak master Haoran Peak master's most outstanding disciple, while the other is the Sword Cometh Peak master's only disciple. Which one of them is up to us to decide?
As for the Demon Monarch Sourcemonster who is denouncing us, he is a grade-8 Great Demon. It is also not up to us to decide how to respond to him. "Empty Mountain Daoist spread his hands and said helplessly.
Everyone looked at each other for a long time, before finally coming to a decision.
"Empty Mountain is right. Let's report this matter to our superiors and let the two peak masters deal with it."
The cultivators present were all veterans of the Sword Sect, and were well aware of the personalities of the peak masters.
Everyone was well aware of what the final outcome would be before the matter was presented.
.....
The Origin Source.
The ten thousand feet tall Demon Monarch Sourcemonster was crouching beside the spatial crack that led to the Yellow Springs World. Surging Yellow Springs death Qi rose and fell with his breathing.
A ferocious-looking Origin Demon was respectfully prostrating in front of the Demon Monarch Sourcemonster.
"How is it? Has the Sword Sect given a reply?" asked the Demon Monarch Sourcemonster.
"Not yet." The Origin Demon reported in a trembling voice, afraid that the Demon Monarch Sourcemonster would vent his anger on him.
However, the Demon Monarch Sourcemonster's sinister face did not reveal much of a ferocious glint.
The reason was very simple.
He knew a thing or two about the Sword Sect's temperament.
If those two disciples of the Sword Sect had really killed his son, then the Sword Sect would be in the wrong, and it would be possible for them to agree to his conditions.
But now, Prince Sourcemonster was still alive even though he was in danger. It was naturally extremely difficult for the Sword Sect to agree to his conditions.
In truth, all he wanted was to make a big deal out of this matter so that the cultivators of the world would know of his might and ferocity, and no one would dare to provoke him and Prince Sourcemonster again.
The so-called asking the Sword Sect to give an explanation was just an act.
It would be good if they did, but it did not matter if they did not.
As for the threat he had revealed, it was nothing more than a show of strength.
Otherwise, a dry condemnation would appear too weak and powerless.
"Demon Monarch …" At this moment, the prostrating Origin Demon suddenly trembled and looked behind the Demon Monarch Sourcemonster with fear in his eyes.
The Demon Monarch Sourcemonster's heart tightened.
It was because he sensed an extremely dangerous aura with his spiritual perception.
It was the smell of death.
The Demon Monarch Sourcemonster suddenly turned his huge head.
It was clearly the middle of the night, but there was a dazzling light behind him!
He saw a sword light rising from the barren land at the edge of Burial Ridge and shooting into the sky. It was like the Milky Way hanging high in the sky, piercing through the night sky, and finally landing at the core of the Origin Source where he was.
The sword light was loud and clear, causing the stars and moon to pale in comparison wherever it passed.
The dark night was illuminated by the sword light as if it was daytime.
"So you want an explanation? Then I'll give you one." A clear and cold female voice arrived along with the sword light.
The way the great sword cultivators of the Sword Sect dealt with problems was as simple as the Daoist from Tranquil Peak had said.
This was because there was only one way they dealt with problems …
Since the problem was not easy to solve, they would deal with the person who brought it up.
.....
The Demon Monarch Sourcemonster reacted quickly. He hastily stirred up the Yellow Springs Death Qi around him.
Countless dim yellow flood dragons instantly charged out. They coiled their bodies, and their eyes burned with death light. Their roars tore through the air as if they wanted to devour everything as they met the sword light from beyond the heavens.
"You're a Realm Eight, and so am I. What do you think you can do to me? As long as the Origin Source exists, I'm indestructible. I'm invincible! "the Demon Monarch Sourcemonster roared.
His cultivation method was special. He could use the Yellow Springs Death Qi to recover continuously.
No matter how serious his injuries were, he could quickly recover.
Hence, the Demon Monarch Sourcemonster was confident that as long as he was in the Origin Source, no Realm Eight cultivator could kill him!
The two of them met his attack with their arts.
On one side, the Yellow Springs Death Qi flowed. The flood dragons danced wildly, vowing to devour the sword light.
On the other side, the boundless night sky melted into the sword light. It stood tall and majestic like the stars.
In this seemingly unbalanced confrontation, the sword light had clashed with the flood dragons thousands of times.
However, there was no balance at all.
That was because this sword light crushed the countless flood dragons as easily as crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood.
An austere killing intent covered the skies as it shot toward the Demon Monarch Sourcemonster.
The space around the Demon Monarch Sourcemonster shattered like a glass mirror under this sword. Only a line of pitch-black was left behind.
This sword light covered the Demon Monarch Sourcemonster's entire body.
"The strongest Realm Seven, Xia Daoyun …!" The Demon Monarch Sourcemonster raised his dim yellow eyes. He could feel the supreme divine power contained in the sword light.
In his spiritual sense, the will of death and death was clearly displayed at this moment.
He couldn't help but cry out in grief.
That cold female voice rang out. Coupled with this white sword light, how could he not know who it was?
Sword Qi spanned 30,000 miles. Frost froze 14 provinces with a single sword.
The strongest Realm Seven recognized by the Heavenly Secrets Temple.
Luoshen Fairy, Xia Daoyun.
What was the strongest Realm Seven?
It wasn't something that could be described simply as the first on the Heaven Rankings.
It could only be said that the strongest Realm Seven was definitely the first on the Heaven Rankings. However, the first on the Heaven Rankings wasn't necessarily the strongest Realm Seven.
There was only one way to judge the strongest Realm Seven.
… In the records of the Heavenly Secrets Temple, from ancient times until now, the strongest Realm Seven was unmatched in terms of battle prowess.
That was why it was also appropriate to call the strongest Realm Seven the strongest of the Heaven Rankings.
And this title belonged solely to Xia Daoyun.
…
The Demon Monarch Sourcemonster didn't expect Xia Daoyun, who was recognized as the strongest Realm Seven, to be so terrifying after breaking through to Realm Eight.
One had to understand that he was also an Eighth Rank existence!
He couldn't even block a single sword strike from Xia Daoyun, who was at Realm Eight.
Then he thought about how he had been blinded by greed. He actually dared to threaten the Sword Sect?
How laughable, how laughable!
But he couldn't be blamed for this.
Logically speaking, even if the Sword Sect didn't fear his threat, they would at most ignore him. At most, they would give him a warning. They were already considered quite a domineering sect.
Who would've thought that the Sword Sect would directly attack them?
A careless tongue is the root of misfortune!
What a pity, my son. Father can no longer protect you by your side.
Fortunately, I gave you the Geomancy Map of the Netherworld, so you finally have a protective treasure.
This was the Demon Monarch Sourcemonster's final thought before he died.
Then, the sword light completely destroyed the Demon Monarch Sourcemonster's enormous body.
The sword light flickered several times.
When the sword light dissipated, there was nothing left where the Demon Monarch Sourcemonster had been.
…
No matter how serious his injuries were, the Demon Monarch Sourcemonster could quickly recover with the help of the Yellow Springs. That was why he was undying.
This was the biggest headache for countless cultivators when facing the Demon Monarch Sourcemonster.
But for Xia Daoyun, the solution was also very simple.
"Why did you let him recover? Wouldn't it be over if you just killed him? "
The woman with brows like distant mountains murmured softly as she watched the Demon Monarch Sourcemonster's body disappear between heaven and earth. "Acting pitiful is fine, but threatening … You're courting death!"
Then, the woman didn't say anything else. Her figure disappeared from Burial Ridge in an instant.
…
The Demon Monarch Sourcemonster didn't know that the most tragic thing about him wasn't that he had been killed by Xia Daoyun's sword.
Instead, it was that he was still worried about Demon Monarch Sourcemonster, who was in the Yellow Springs. In reality, he had also died under Lu Qingshan's sword a long time ago.
The disciple killed the son, and the master killed the father.
This master and disciple had reached a subtle tacit understanding on this matter.
