Chapter 2917

Gao Xueting reached out and supported Yang Kai’s arm to prevent him from falling in an awkward state. Yang Kai nodded his thanks and took rapid breaths to calm the surging Qi and blood in his chest.

Suddenly, there were two ‘wuwu’ sounds. Youdaoplaceholder0, the little black dog-like Guixu let out a wail as if enduring something extremely painful.

At this moment, its appearance was extremely miserable. Before, it doesn’t know what method Gong Yue used to control and stimulate the power in its bloodline. It actually manages to navigate with many Emperor Senior Stages for a long time on its own. But after reaching its limit, it seemed to pose no threat at all. When it was involved by many supernatural powers, it was even more severely injured with its whole body bloody and unbearable.

Gong Yue looked at it and clearly perceived something. He smiled slightly and said, “Well, anyway, the time is almost up.”

No one knew what he meant by saying this, but just as his voice fell, Guixu suddenly retching ed a few times and then its mouth expanded violently, instantly turning into that monstrous huge mouth.

From within the huge mouth, a cold light burst forth, and a man with a spear seemed to break free from the abyss, spinning and rushing out.

The moment he regained his sight, Feng Ming was clearly a bit stunned. After being swallowed in one gulp just now, there was boundless darkness all around, no light, no sound. Fortunately, he didn’t suffer any harm and seemed to have just been swallowed into a strange world.

Occasionally, a ray of light came out from that world, and he fought his way out along this light with all his strength and finally managed to escape.

With a sweep of his gaze, Feng Ming made a decision. He kicked towards Guixu, who was standing beside him and retching continuously, directly kicking this little black dog flying and out of sight, and then the spear shot out like a dragon, stabbing towards Gong Yue, who was sitting cross-legged aside.

At the critical moment of life and death, Gong Yue didn’t dodge and didn’t even mean to resist. His aura had always been very weak. He was able to fight against many Emperor Venerable Realm experts entirely relying on Guixu’s strange ability. Now that Guixu was also of no use. Even if he resisted, he couldn’t defeat Feng Ming in a rage.

He faced the call of death with a calm expression, as if he had already seen through life and death.

With a chi sound, the Yanlei Spear blasted into Gong Yue’s chest, blowing open a hole in his chest. Through that hole, the wriggling internal organs could be faintly seen.

Gong Yue was still smiling： “Killing me alone is useless. Time will prove that my choice is correct and you are all wrong.”

“Mystifying!” Feng Ming snorted coldly. With a surge of emperor yuan, a beast roar came from the Yanlei Spear. Immediately after, Gong Yue’s body burst open, turning into a blood mist and disappearing without a trace.

A black light escaped. Feng Ming was quick-eyed and shot out with a spear, directly breaking the black light. Then he let out a sigh of relief and turned to ask the crowd, “Are you all right？”

Chen Wenhao’s face didn’t look good. He shook his head and said, “It’s okay. Thanks to Elder Yang. How about you, Brother Feng？”

Feng Ming shook his head and said, “I’m fine too, but we still have to check carefully. That thing is too strange.”

“What did Gong Yue mean by what he said just now?” Gao Xueting’s beautiful eyebrows were tightly wrinkled. She had been thinking about Gong Yue’s words but couldn’t quite understand. She just felt extremely bored in her heart as if something bad was about to happen.”

No one knew what Gong Yue meant by his words before he died.

Just as everyone was pondering, suddenly a rumbling sound came from afar and approached. The earth and mountains began to shake and tremble. As if something had been broken, black lights suddenly rose from somewhere on Lingjian Peak and turned into streamers shooting in all directions.

“Demonic thoughts… How can there be so many demonic thoughts？” Gao Xueting looked up and was instantly pale with shock.

These black lights were obviously the same as the existence that had eroded Gong Yue, all remaining demonic thoughts, but the number was as many as several hundred or even a thousand. It was as if a firework exploded in the air and flew in all directions.

“How could this be！” Chen Wenhao was also a bit dumbfounded.

Qiu Ran and the others saw the demonic thoughts for the first time. Although they didn’t know their power, they also felt that these things were extremely difficult to deal with, and everyone’s expression was solemn.

“Spirit Sword Peak… is a place to seal demons！” Yang Kai coughed lightly and said, looking extremely weak. “The reason why Gong Yue came here was to break the seal and release the other demonic thoughts.”

Gao Xueting was shocked when she heard this and turned to look at him. “Junior Brother, you mean there is a place here like Nan Zhao？”

Yang Kai said, “There is no other explanation.”

Everyone’s attention was attracted by the ancient cave in Nan Zhao. No one expected that in the Spirit Sword Peak of Qingyang Temple, there was actually another place to seal demons. Gong Yue was eroded by the demonic thoughts and obviously knew this, so he would go the long way around and come directly here, using his own array attainments to break the prohibition and release more demonic thoughts.

He didn’t resist when he was dying. One reason was that he couldn’t resist, and the other was that there was no need to. Because even if he died, his mission had been accomplished. As he said before, there were still many people who would follow in his footsteps.

Dammit！” Gao Xueting gritted her silver teeth.”

Activate the protective sect formation. We must stop these things as soon as possible. If we let them escape… ” Yang Kai said urgently. Before he could finish speaking, another change occurred. There was another rumbling sound, and then a burst of laughter came into everyone’s ears.”

Yang Kai’s words stopped abruptly, and he looked in the direction of the sound source in astonishment.

He had already recognized whose voice it was.

The laughter was initially a little restrained, as if extremely surprised, but as time passed, it became more and more unbridled and rampant.

A stream of light shot over from the distance, and the laughter also approached quickly.

In the blink of an eye, an old man with white hair and beard, a sloppy appearance, and tattered clothes appeared not far in front of everyone. An indescribable pressure suddenly descended from the sky, as if a huge mountain was pressing on everyone’s chest, making many Emperor Venerable Realm cultivators even have difficulty breathing. Yang Kai’s condition was not good in the first place, and now a trickle of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.

The old man stood in the air, stopped laughing, his gaze swept slightly among the crowd, and then fixed on Yang Kai. He smiled and said, “Oh？ You brat is here too. It’s really a small world.”

Yang Kai’s brows furrowed tightly. He always felt that something was not right. The old man in front of him was no different from the one in his memory, but his temperament was completely different. The old man in his memory was wise and free and easy, but the person in front of him exuded a sinister aura all over his body.

Gao Xueting’s expression became solemn, and she hurriedly said, “Greetings to the Great Emperor！”

Qiu Ran also quickly saluted.

The others were startled. Including the other elders of the Divine Temple, they knew nothing about this person, but both Qiu Ran and Gao Xueting actually addressed him as the Great Emperor. There were only a few Great Emperors in the world. Who was this person in front of them?

Feng Ming and Chen Wenhao looked at each other and saw the shocked expressions in each other’s eyes.

Gao Xueting explained, “This is Lord Hongchen！”

“What?” The two were shocked, but they didn’t dare to be slack. They both bowed and said, “Greetings to Senior Hongchen.”

Among the ten great emperors, except for those who founded sects, the rest are all mysterious figures who are elusive. Among them, the Red Dust Emperor is the most mysterious. Because he practices the way of the red dust and needs to experience the red dust, he will incarnate into thousands of forms and struggle in the red dust to experience all kinds of life. The beggar on the street, the woodcutter on the mountain, the turtle in the brothel, the high-ranking officials in the court, perhaps there is his figure, but no one can recognize him. Maybe he can pass by him, maybe he can drink and sing with him, but no one has ever really recognized his identity.

Feng Ming, Chen Wenhao and others have never seen the Red Dust Emperor, but they firmly believe in Gao Xueting’s words.

Because it is rumored that the Qingyang Temple has a good relationship with the Red Dust Emperor, especially the temple master Wen Zishan, who has a relationship like father and son with the Red Dust Emperor. Otherwise, how could the Qingyang Temple become one of the top sects in the Southern Region in just a few thousand years？ You know, among those top sects, except for the Qingyang Temple, the remaining ones are all long-established existences. The Tianwu Holy Land can even trace back tens of thousands of years of history.

The powerful people saluted, but Duan Hongchen just smiled slightly and ignored them. His eyes were always looking at Yang Kai with great interest.

Gao Xueting said： “My lord, the demonic thoughts have resurfaced and the temple is in crisis. Please help us.”

Yang Kai gently patted Gao Xueting’s arm and shook his head, saying, “Don’t say anymore. He’s not Senior Hongchen.”

“Huh？” Gao Xueting was stunned. Then, as if remembering something, her delicate body trembled and she looked at Duan Hongchen in extreme horror.”

Feng Ming and Chen Wenhao both looked blank, completely confused. Gao Xueting said that the old man in front of them was the Red Dust Great Emperor, but Yang Kai said he wasn’t. And this old man didn’t show any sign of refuting, which really made these two outsiders confused.”

“Wu Kuang, how did you get out？ What did you do to Senior Hongchen？” Yang Kai asked in a deep voice, his gaze icy cold.”

“Duan Hongchen” smiled slightly, pointed at his own head and said, “Since this Seat has come out, what do you think the outcome of the old Hongchen fellow will be？ He has already been devoured by this Seat！ Hahaha！”

“Impossible！” Yang Kai shouted sternly.”

Wu Kuang’s laughter stopped abruptly, extremely suddenly. He said coldly, “How many years has this brat lived? How much do you know about this Seat’s supernatural powers? The old Hongchen fellow thought he could imprison this Seat in that mirror, but instead he actually helped this Seat. How extremely stupid, ridiculous！ Under this Seat’s Heaven Devouring Battle Technique, how could he resist? Who in the world can resist?”

“The Heaven-devouring Battle Law？” Feng Ming and Chen Wenhao were shocked and took a few steps back together. They had naturally heard of this famous cultivation method. It could be said to be the most powerful and evil cultivation method in the history of the Star Boundary. It triggered the Great Emperor Battle and made the Broken Star Sea take shape. Even now, tens of thousands of years later, the name of this cultivation method is still well known to many powerful people.

Chen Wenhao frowned and hesitated, saying, “Could it be that your Excellency…”

He didn’t dare to say any more, and even felt a bit of fear towards that reputation that was extremely powerful tens of thousands of years ago.

Wu Kuang said haughtily, “Yes, I am a devouring Heaven!”
