"Brother Yun, it seems that this invasion by the Demon Sect is a calamity for the entire Eastern Region!" Xu Shuo sighed and said, "With the current strength of our Eastern Region, it is basically impossible to fend off the people from the Demon Sect. However, if what the Diviner said is true, then our Eastern Region should not perish but will instead be reborn from the ashes, restoring the prosperity of Ancient Times."
"Prosperity my ass! Given the strength of those from the Demon Sect this time, the chances of us surviving are negligible, let alone restoring the prosperity of Ancient Times," Huang said with a dark expression.
This invasion by the Demon Sect was evident to anyone that they could not withstand it. After all, among those who came this time were nearly ten strong individuals from the Gaze of Fate, while they only had Yun Qing as their sole Gaze of Fate expert, and he was just newly entered into that realm.
"Actually... we are not completely without a chance," Yan Haoxuan said slowly, his eyes flickering. "You all should know about our Eastern Region's forbidden area, Sword Mound! As long as we enter there, we do have a chance to fight them."
Sword Mound?
Hearing these three words, everyone's eyes lit up. The Sword Mound has restrictions on strength; those who enter cannot exceed Yang Po Er Chong in cultivation level and cannot surpass Yang Spirit Peak in Soul Power. Otherwise, they would be killed by the Vengeful Spirits born from the Divine-Grade Remnants at the core of Sword Mound.
If they truly entered Sword Mound, even if they could not contend with the people from the Demon Sect, they could at least preserve the last bit of strength for the Eastern Region.
"We mustn't delay; let's go quickly. The people from the Sword Sect will surely arrive here soon. With a Soul-Searching Realm Expert's strength, it won't take them long to travel from Sun Kingdom to Sword Kingdom," Yun Qing said with a slight frown.
After all, Yuwen Haocang had just escaped and would definitely return to the Demon Sect's stronghold in the Eastern Region. Once he got there, he would bring back news of their location, and at that time, other Soul-Searching Realm Experts would definitely come to intercept them.
"Cloud Leader, we can leave anytime we want, but what about my tens of thousands of disciples?" Yan Haoxuan showed a hint of difficulty on his face. As a sect leader, if he abandoned his disciples at this moment and fled, where would that leave his reputation?
The others also looked troubled; they all had their own factions and many disciples beneath them. If they fled now, those disciples' families would surely be captured and killed by the Demon Sect.
"Now is a critical moment of life and death. We cannot take all the disciples with us; we simply do not have that much time. The people from the Demon Sect might appear here at any second, so we must leave as soon as possible," Yun Qing said, frowning. They had no time to waste because the Demon Sect could arrive at any moment.
"What you have brought should be the elite disciples from your respective factions, right? We don't have time to deal with anything else now; we just need to take these elite disciples with us. As for the ordinary disciples, or those who haven't even entered the Earth Soul Realm, bringing them into Sword Mound would only lead them to their deaths. So let them fend for themselves outside!"
Yun Qing was indeed a formidable leader; he discarded what needed to be discarded without a hint of hesitation. If he had shown even a slight hesitation or compassion at this moment, the entire Eastern Region might truly face destruction.
"Since that's the case, everyone should leave quickly. My Sword Sect has a Teleportation Array that leads directly to Sword Mound," Yan Haoxuan said, glancing at everyone.
The master of the entrance to Sword Mound, Zong Hongfei, was from the Sword Sect. He had spent over ten years in Sword Mound, so establishing a Teleportation Array connecting to the Sword Sect was relatively easy.
"Then everyone go gather those elite disciples and enter Sword Mound together," Yun Qing said. Although he was somewhat surprised that the Sword Sect had a Teleportation Array leading to Sword Mound, now was not the time for further contemplation.
"Leader, is Young Master Chen... is he alright?" As everyone went to gather their disciples, Yuer and Lin Luori approached Yun Qing, looking at Xing Chen lying on the ground.
"Chen Er's injuries are severe. In his condition, he would normally be doomed to die. However, there is a mysterious force within him that keeps his life intact and his soul from dispersing. So for now, he is not in immediate danger. But when he will wake up, I do not know," Yun Qing sighed again as he looked at Xing Chen. This time, Xing Chen's situation was even more serious than before; even Yun Qing could not tell when or if he would wake up.
"If it weren't for that old rascal Huang this time, Young Master Chen wouldn't be like this. Look..." Lin Luori stepped forward and made a gesture as if to kill.
"Killing is necessary, but it cannot be done now. No matter what, he is a Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm expert. If we kill him now, our already limited combat power in the Eastern Region will be reduced even further. Even if we must kill him, it should be in battle against the people from the Demon Sect," Yun Qing said with a fierce glint in his eyes but remained exceptionally calm.
If it weren't for the invasion of the Demon Sect, Yun Qing's personality would have already taken the head of Huang by now. However, this is not the time for internal strife, so even Yun Qing cannot act recklessly at this moment.
Lin Luori listened to Yun Qing and dared not say anything further. Since Yun Qing had decided this, any further comments from him would be futile, so Lin Luori simply closed his mouth.
"They're quite fast," Yun Qing suddenly looked into the void, his eyes shining with a purple light as arcs of purple lightning danced within them. Where his gaze fell, strands of electric arcs struck down.
Sizzle!
As the lightning struck, the space was instantly torn apart, and a figure of a young man in his twenties slowly emerged.
The young man was dressed in black, his gaze cold and proud. The aura he exuded was much stronger than that of Yun Qing; his cultivation was at least at the peak of Gaze into the Self.
"Azure Cloud Gang leader, Yun Qing. Not bad; you managed to break through Gaze of Fate in this Eastern Region and even discern my hiding place. Impressive," the Black-Clad Youth said with a nod, as the purple lightning in the air was pushed away by the aura he emanated.
"Are you also from the Demon Sect?" Yun Qing's expression turned serious. The pressure from this young man was overwhelming; even the pressure he felt from Yuwen Haocang earlier was not as great, though that was due to Yuwen Haocang's injuries.
"Demon Sect Young Master, Demon Wind!" The young man looked coldly at Yun Qing.
"I didn't expect that the Demon Sect would send even you, a Young Master of the Demon Sect, to invade my Eastern Region. It seems that the Demon Sect truly values my Eastern Region!"
A smile suddenly appeared on Yun Qing's face. Although the young man, Demon Wind, was powerful, with the might of his High-Level Divine Weapon, Purple Extreme Thunder Sword, there was still hope to defeat him.
“Yun Qing, being able to break through to Gaze of Fate in a place like Eastern Region proves your extraordinary talent. I will give you a chance: hand over the High-Level Divine Weapon Purple Extreme Thunder Sword, and then, if you join me in the Demon Sect, I can spare your life.”
Demon Wind looked down from above, speaking as if he were granting Yun Qing a great favor.
“Hmph, just because of you?” Yun Qing showed disdain, his eyes filled with contempt as he looked at Demon Wind. He then slowly spoke, “If you want me to submit to you, it’s simple: just defeat me!”
Yun Qing slightly clenched his fists, a powerful aura gradually brewing around him, causing the surrounding Vital Energy to erupt at that moment.
“Since that's the case, I have no choice but to beat you into submission.” Demon Wind’s gaze sharpened, a hint of Black Light flashing in his eyes.
“Stop talking nonsense; let’s see the real skills!” Yun Qing moved his feet and instantly vanished from sight, locking onto Demon Sect Young Master Demon Wind with a powerful aura.
“Shifang Wujiquan, Ten Directions Annihilation!”
With one strike, countless images of Yun Qing surged from all directions, attacking like a flood. Each image threw a punch at Demon Wind, each punch capable of shattering the ground and tearing apart space.
Countless Fist Shadows bombarded towards Demon Wind. Even someone as strong as him, who was at the level of Peering into the Pinnacle of Self-Observation, had to respond.
“Demon-Breaking Claw!”
With a slight change in expression, Demon Wind instantly unleashed his Earth-Level Top Martial Arts, the Dragon Capture Claw. He swung out a claw, and in an instant, a menacing Black Magic Dragon, exuding a chilling Demonic Aura, appeared in the surrounding space. Claw shadows filled the area, colliding with the incoming Fist Shadows.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of intense explosions echoed around, causing the entire space to begin shattering under the pressure of such powerful impacts.
“Seize Ghosts and Capture Spirits!”
Before the surrounding shockwaves had dissipated, a loud shout of “Demon Wind” rang out. Immediately, his hand, still in the shape of a dragon's claw, reached out towards a certain point in the void.
In this grasp, there were no lingering claw shadows, no overwhelming might; it appeared hazy and indistinct, yet it gave off the feeling of a ghostly hand reaching out from the Underworld, emanating a chilling Demonic Aura that sent shivers down one's spine.
“Ninefold Thunder Palm!”
As Demon Wind reached out, Yun Qing's figure slowly materialized, followed by a fierce palm strike. His entire form transformed into a bolt of purple Lightning, instantly colliding with Demon Wind's claw like a flash of thunder.
Thunder roared around them as powerful shockwaves continuously spread outward.
“Good, good, good! As expected of the Azure Cloud Gang leader; your strength is indeed formidable. Today, I shall play with you for a while.” After some time, as the shockwaves subsided, Demon Wind's cold voice slowly emerged.
At this moment, both Yun Qing and Demon Wind appeared disheveled and tattered, clearly having gained no advantage from their recent clash.
