Chapter 603 – Another Divine Artifact Eaten (2/2)

Venerable Yun Ji’s Profound Emperor 6th rank powers exploded out. The air around them started exploding and space started distorting. All the inner sect disciples felt their hearts sink as if a large mountain was pressing against them. What an uncomfortable feeling!

It was the same for Luo Tian.

The Profound Emperor realm was much more complicated than he imagined.

It was different from the other lower realms.

One was one and two was two. Two was larger than one in any circumstances. This was the gap in levels when people were in the Profound Emperor realm. One of the main factors how Luo Tian was able to kill Venerable Hun Yuan so quickly was because Venerable Hun Yuan underestimated his enemy.

He thought Luo Tian wasn’t his opponent.

How would he have known Luo Tian would smash out with all his strength in the first move? If Luo Tian could kill someone with one punch, he would never throw out a second!

But now it was different.

Venerable Yun Ji’s cultivation was at the Profound Emperor 6th rank which meant there was a difference in five small realms. Strength and oppressive pressure was like the difference between heaven and earth.

His suppression surged out in all its might and Luo Tian’s body sank down. His sea of consciousness was violently shaking and this caused him extreme discomfort. Luo Tian’s expression showed he was suffering but he still looked up and shouted: “Venerable Yun Ji, such good moves!”

Immediately after…

Luo Tian shouted internally: “Level 8 Berserk!”

After releasing 256 times the power of his base attributes, his sea of consciousness slightly improved. But he was still feeling extremely uncomfortable like someone was trying to gouge his brains out. Luo Tian clenched his teeth and held on before saying coldly: “Venerable Hun Yuan has already died, so naturally, you’re the next person to take action.”

“But before you make your move, I have some questions to ask you.”

Before Venerable Yun Ji could reject it, Luo Tian directly asked: “When the ten great immortal sects joined hands and surrounded the outer sect, did you show up at all? Did you fight back at all?”

Seeing all the young disciples of the outer sect dead, Luo Tian was very clear that those high and mighty inner sect Elders and the Sect Leader never showed up. They allowed the allied forces of the ten great immortal sects to kill to their heart’s content.

Because Han Hua and the others tried to fight back, they were going to be executed!

How laughable was this?

The reason Luo Tian asked these questions was that he wanted the surrounding inner sect disciples to hear what kind of person Venerable Yun Ji was.

Venerable Yun Ji started laughing unexpectedly and said: “The outer sect disciples are nothing but garbage. It’s perfect that they died because Mount Hua can save on a lot of expenses. It was good timing from the allied forces of the ten great immortal sects to clean out the trash for me, so I actually should be thanking them.”

Unexpected!

He dared to say such words!

Luo Tian felt pain in his heart.

At this time, Venerable Yun Ji continued saying: “But it’s good that not a single inner sect disciple has died during this incident. They are the only useful people in our Mount Hua Immortal Sect, the true cornerstone of Mount Hua Immortal Sect and the catalyst to rise up again.”

“In order to protect the inner sect disciples, I compensated the ten great immortal sects with top grade xuan stones and inner cores. I wouldn’t hesitate even if I have to pay a higher price. As long as I can protect the inner sect disciples, Mount Hua Immortal Sect will have a future filled with hope.”

After saying this, a cold sneer appeared on Venerable Yun Ji’s mouth as he sent Luo Tian a sound transmission: “Kid, you want to play schemes with me? You’re still a bit too tender! Humph~!”

It was just as Venerable Yun Ji expected.

Those inner sect disciples were so moved that they started crying. In their hearts, Venerable Yun Ji’s position had risen to another higher step.

“Sect Leader, you have suffered too much.”

“Sect Leader, we will defend Mount Hua Immortal Sect with our lives.”

“We will not disappoint you!”

Most of the outer sect disciples had died and there were only about a hundred or so of them left. These people were naturally abandoned by Venerable Yun Ji because the inner sect disciples were his true focus.

It was unknown when…

The surviving outer sect disciples started coming out one by one with expressionless faces. Their hearts were dead as they glared at Venerable Yun Ji.

Also at this time…

One of them loudly yelled: “Luo Tian, I will support you! Just let Mount Hua Immortal Sect be destroyed!”

The feeling of being abandoned didn’t feel good.

Over a hundred people from the outer sect stepped out and roared out in unison as well.

Venerable Yun Ji sent out his spiritual senses before coldly harrumphing: “A bunch of garbage! All of you can go to hell for me!”

At this time…

Luo Tian took a step forward.
