Chapter 1145: Geezer Su

Among the elders here, there were brothers in the same generation as Old Devil as well as uncles who were older than him. Back then, they opened the seal only to find that the power within was not as simple as they expected. In the end, they had to stay here to guard this place.

If they didn’t do so, this entire area would turn into an evil land. At that time, not only would the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect turn into ashes, the rest of this land would fall into ruin as well.

“It was everyone’s fault.” An ancestor gently sighed: “If we didn’t agree and work together to open the seal, we wouldn’t be in this situation today. It is not just your fault.”

Old Devil sighed as well. It was all due to greed back then. It ruined everything and almost ended the sect completely.

Li Qiye looked at them and commanded: “Mu Shaodi can stay, the rest of you, leave.”

The elders glanced at each other. In fact, they didn’t know Li Qiye’s true ident.i.ty, so they looked at Old Devil instead.

Old Devil nodded and said: “Elders can go, just leave this place to Young n.o.ble Li. When it is over, everyone can return to the sect.”

Old Devil was the greatest hope to become an Immortal Emperor. He had a very high position in the minds of these elders. The elders were a bit hesitant, but they still decided to eventually leave after hearing him.

With their departure, Li Qiye signaled to the Benevolent Saber within the imperial formation by waving his sleeve. With a clank, the saber slightly resonated with a hymn before flying into his hand. The other two weapons also followed and floated above his head.

He gently stroked the blade afterward. It was flas.h.i.+ng with a cold and dreadful glint capable of deterring others from approaching. Its tip could easily pierce a paragon’s body. The saber kept on hymning as if it had seen its master. It looked like it recognized Li Qiye.

“Benevolent Saber…” Li Qiye gently sighed while holding the blade. Back then, it was quite an undertaking for him to find a destiny true stone for Immortal Emperor Min Ren, eventually refining into this one-of-a-kind weapon.

“Clank.” The saber returned to its scabbard. He then s.h.i.+fted his gaze towards the huge abyss and told Old Devil: “Open it, I want to see him.”

“Umm... “ Old Devil hesitated and looked at Li Qiye: “Your Excellency, don’t we need to prepare a bit?”

“Don’t worry, I know what we’re about to face.” Li Qiye slowly replied while staring at the pit.

Old Devil took a deep breath and channeled all of his blood energy as universal laws emerged. The seal was opened at this time. The old man did not dare to be careless and readied himself for the worst.

“Clank—” One could see a black energy floating around the pit as if there was boiling water inside.

“Boom!” With a loud blast, this black energy surged into the sky in an endless and terrifying manner. It was a ferocious reverse waterfall.

“Buzz—” A faint hum came about. Immortal Emperor laws appeared around the imperial foundation. Its power tried to stop this flood of boiling black energy.

However, the black energy kept on spewing out. It would eventually fill the entire underground foundation. Even a more powerful foundation wouldn’t be able to seal this torrential black energy.

“Hahaha…” A shadow rushed out from the pit and laughed: “Junior, you have finally given up. Be smart and scram from this place to avoid making a mistake.”

This shadow was engulfed in the black energy, making it seem as if it didn’t have a body. It was made up entirely of this dark air and seemed to be able to control this form of energy.

It looked quite burly and strong, resulting in a very vigorous and mighty presence. Despite being formed from the black energy that gave off a dark and ominous feeling, it had an innate majestic aura.

“No, I did not give up. I simply let you out today in order to end it all and obtain peace for this land!” Old Devil shook his head.
