Chapter 772 – I Want To Compete With You In The Sword! (1/2)
“You?” The old man in dark golden robed laughed coldly. He raised his right hand and made a clawing motion towards Yang Ye and the others. Yang Ye and the others weren’t harm by it, but numerous buildings throughout Ancient Domain City collapsed in an instant. Moreover, the walls around the city were instantly transformed into powder. Besides that, the ground around the city was collapsing incessantly….
However, not a single person within the city was dead!
The old man said, “If we want, then not to mention your tiny Ancient Domain City, we can even destroy the entire continent!”
“Is that very amazing?” Yang Ye flipped his palm, and the Stone of Suppression appeared in his grasp. As soon as that happened, a powerful and mysterious force enveloped the surroundings, and the strengths of all the experts from the Hallowed Grounds was suppressed by a realm.
At the same time, 21 Half-Saint puppets appeared behind Yang Ye.
Now, Yang Ye’s side had 72 Half-Saints. While it was still fewer than the Hallowed Grounds’ forces, their quality far surpa.s.sed the Hallowed Grounds. After all, the Half-Saints of the Hallowed Grounds had been suppressed.
“Our Hallowed Halls’ greatest mistake was allowing the Stone of Suppression to fall into your hands!” Supreme Exalt He looked Yang Ye in the eyes. Even though his cultivation had been suppressed, his face was still extremely calm, “However, do you think that you can crush us just because you have the Stone of Suppression? Every single person here is an elite of the Hallowed Halls. Believe me, even if their cultivations have been suppressed, every single one of them isn’t weaker than the Half-Saints on your side.”
“I know!” Yang Ye replied, “However, we’re confident in our ability to kill 90% of your forces. Moreover, once the I and the other Half-Saints die, my Master and Senior Lu Yan will leave Profounder Continent and head to the Hallowed Grounds with the Stone of Suppression. We’ll make the Hallowed Grounds pay a hundredfold for every single person that dies here. Besides that, I’m sure you’re aware that I’m acquaintances with that little girl in Nameless City. At that time, even if their joint forces are unable to destroy your Hallowed Grounds, it should be sufficient to cripple it. Once that happens, we’ll see how all of you fight the defiant profounders!”
“That’s a good idea!” Lu Yan nodded.
“I think it’s not bad as well!” Elder Mu chimed in.
“You’re threatening us?” asked Supreme Exalt He.
Yang Ye glanced at the members of the Hallowed Halls and said, “The defiant profounders are about to emerge from the seal, and a calamity is upon us. If the Hallowed Grounds fights us to the death, then I guarantee that we’ll definitely cripple you when the defiant profounders emerge. I won’t ally myself with the defiant profounders, but I wont ally myself with the Hallowed Grounds as well. What I want is very simple, I want all of us to keep clear of each other and don’t interfere in each other’s business. If the defiant profounders attack the Hallowed Grounds, then it’s your problem; if they attack us, then it’s our problem. In short, so long as the Hallowed Grounds doesn’t come looking for trouble with us, then we won’t head over to the Hallowed Grounds to cause trouble!”
He had the Sword Precursor with him now, so he naturally wouldn’t head over there to cause trouble. In his opinion, the southern territory’s main objective was to improve its strength as soon as possible. Most importantly, he had to improve his strength as soon as possible. After all, he only had another month to live.
“Approved!” Suddenly, a voice resounded from within the blue vortex. The expressions of Supreme Exalt He and the others changed slightly when they heard it because it was the Hallowed Lord’s voice!
On the other hand, a wisp of astonishment flashed through Elder Mu and Lu Yan’s eyes!
Supreme Exalt He took a deep and long glance at Yang Ye, and then he led the others back into the blue vortex. Meanwhile, the old man in a dark golden robe stopped when he was about to enter the vortex, and he turned and gazed at Yang Ye, “You’ll come begging for my Hallowed Grounds’ help when the defiant profounders emerge from the seal!” He turned around and stepped into the vortex once he finished speaking.
In next to no time, the blue vortex vanished from the sky, and the sky returned to its previous calm state.
Countless people throughout the city heaved sighs of relief when they witnessed this scene.
Yang Ye was the same. He had to admit that Profounder Continent really was too weak when compared to the Hallowed Grounds. If the defiant profounders weren’t there to tie down most of the Hallowed Grounds’ forces, then it truly wouldn’t be difficult at all for the Hallowed Grounds to crush Profounder Continent. It was even to the extent that the strength who’d arrived earlier was sufficient to crush Profounder Continent. Of course, if they fought and the forces of Profounder Continent fought to the death, then the outcome would be exactly as he’s said. At least 90% of the Hallowed Grounds’ experts would perish here!
“Young Master, that person who spoke earlier is extremely strong!” Suddenly, Lu Yan spoke solemnly, “Don’t travel to the Hallowed Grounds again unless it’s very important.”
Elder Mu nodded and said, “He’s the strongest expert I’ve ever seen. I’m truly unable to imagine how he actually possesses such terrifying strength when he hasn’t stepped foot into the Saint Realm!”
Yang Ye asked, “How strong is he?”
“Boundlessly close to the Saint Realm!” Lu Yan replied, “Of course, even if he’s only a step away from the Saint Realm, he’s still a Half-Saint. However, his strength far surpa.s.ses ordinary Half-Saints. So long as he obtains Quintessence Violet Energy, then stepping foot into the Saint Realm should be a piece of cake to him.”
Yang Ye spoke in a low voice, “Senior Lu, even you are unable to fight him?”
Lu Yan shook his head and said, “I’ve been sealed in this d.a.m.nable place for too long, so my strength is far inferior that what it used to be. Coupled with the fact that I have no Quintessence Violet Energy to recover my strength, my strength isn’t just unable to rise, it’ll even regress endlessly. Haha! If the members of the Yang Clan knew that I died here, they would definitely summon my soul and whip my soul because it’s truly too humiliating!”
When he spoke up to this point, Lu Yan raised his head and looked up into the sky, “But the people of this region are quite strong. They were actually able to seal those madmen and even use this world as a cage to trap them for 100,000 years. Young Master, if you’re able to leave this world in the future, then you must be careful. After all, the Yang Clan is truly too far away from here.”
