System's Super Sect Chapter 1440 - 1217: Upper Realm Wood Dragon, Ready for Battle!

A furious shout.

Startled the people of Divine Flight City.

Also startled the people inside the Purple Treasure Pavilion.

However, at this moment, whether it was the people of Divine Flight City or those in the Purple Treasure Pavilion, after experiencing the terror of Jiang Heshan, they no longer worried about the Purple Treasure Pavilion when facing the infamous Prince Zhenyou, Sima Tianxuan, no matter how terrifying the aura he released was.

All that remained was a spectator mentality.

"Just a few days ago, I heard that Prince Zhenyou heavily criticized the Celestial Ranking in front of the Sovereign, denouncing it as a publicity stunt by the Exhaustive Knowledge Pavilion. But later, he was embarrassed by being defeated by a Great Domain Master of the Middle Realm. Who would have thought he’d come knocking today."

"I guess even he didn’t realize he could only rank fourth among King-Sealing Experts. It’s one thing to be overshadowed by Senior He Youyuan, but to also be bested by two Ministry Level experts from the Zhetian Pavilion? Yet, over the years, he’s been boasting to be the top under He Youyuan!"

"If he isn’t satisfied with his ranking, he should challenge those from the Zhetian Pavilion. Why come to challenge the Immortal Sect? What was he thinking? No one from the Immortal Sect is on the Celestial Ranking. If an expert from the Immortal Sect were on it, he wouldn’t be steady even at fifth, let alone sixth."

"You really dare to speak... But indeed, what you said has a point. Not only fifth and sixth wouldn’t be stable, if he’d come a few days earlier..."

The people’s discussions did not reach the ears of Sima Tianxuan because all his attention was on the ruins surrounding the Purple Treasure Pavilion.

His perception swept across every inch of the ruins, feeling the remnants of power within, and then he coldly laughed, saying, "It seems that not only is this king dissatisfied with Exhaustive Knowledge Pavilion and the Immortal Sect, but someone even beat me to laying siege to the Purple Treasure Pavilion."

Creating the Celestial Ranking.

Exhaustive Knowledge Pavilion, Immortal Sect, destined to become the target of scorn!

Throughout the land, cultivators and the You Country royal family, how could they allow such a small sect to make decisions for them?

Meanwhile, in the Curved Realm Passage at the City Lord’s Mansion in Divine Flight City, several more people emerged from the passageway. Yan Lai, upon hearing the commotion, hurried back and was immediately scared to kneel on the ground.

Celestial Nether King.

King of Harmony and Sorrow.

Ice King.

King of Wujie.

King of Chaos.

All five royal King-Sealing experts unexpectedly gathered in Divine Flight City.

"Salute to His Highness Celestial Nether King, salute to His Highness King of Harmony and Sorrow, salute to His Highness Ice King..." Yan Lai had just bowed to the five.

Another person walked out of the Curved Realm Passage.

It was Prince Longyang!

The gathering of six royal King-Sealing experts in Divine Flight City, how terrified Yan Lai was! He promptly and discreetly escorted the six into the City Lord’s Mansion.

Everyone walked in silence.

Because each had their own thoughts.

The reason Prince Longyang remained silent was simple; the outcome he least wanted to see was now unfolding before him.

The arrival of the Celestial Nether King and others would surely ensure Sima Tianxuan’s safety.

Especially King of Harmony and Sorrow, who had always hidden the fact that Sima Tianxuan had joined their faction, wasn’t he considered the greatest trump card?

If the trump card were at risk, he would surely step in!

Upon reaching the top floor of the City Lord’s Mansion in Divine Flight City, seeing Sima Tianxuan above the Purple Treasure Pavilion, the previously silent Celestial Nether King spoke.

"Prince Longyang, don’t think this king is unaware of the rumors spread within the Divine Shadow Army and the gossip in the capital city — you initiated it. You wanted Sima Tianxuan to challenge the Immortal Sect, you’ve succeeded. But if the Immortal Sect were defeated, what then?"

Prince Longyang confidently replied, "Just one Sima Tianxuan isn’t enough to defeat the Immortal Sect. Not even He Youyuan could kill Lie Yao with two sword strikes."

"Thus, upon learning you forced Sima Tianxuan to seek out the Immortal Sect, this king visited the Thousand Crafts Sect and personally saw the Sect Leader requesting a sect’s treasure. Even if it can’t kill a Heaven Unrestricted Upper Realm expert, it’ll surely restrict them to use only half of their full power."

With that said, Celestial Nether King chuckled smugly.

King of Chaos even laughed incessantly.

For he had been holding back upon knowing this matter, just waiting for this moment!

You’ve made me suffer these past days!

Dare you even mention Lie Yao?

Serves you right!

Hahaha!

Prince Longyang’s expression changed; he hadn’t expected the always loyal to the Sovereign Thousand Crafts Sect to aid Celestial Nether King.

No way?

The Thousand Crafts Sect could never stand in Celestial Nether King’s camp.

Because the Thousand Crafts Sect’s backing is the current Sovereign of You Country.

There’s only one possibility: even the Thousand Crafts Sect Leader wants the Immortal Sect defeated.

"Surprised, aren’t you?" King of Chaos laughed relentlessly, exceedingly pleased, "Do you really think your little schemes would go unnoticed by us?"

Prince Longyang’s expression grew somewhat gloomy, and then he sought an excuse to leave, intending to inform the Immortal Sect Sect Leader using the Sound Transmission Stone.

But just as he was about to leave, King of Chaos stuck close.

Behaving as if he intended to keep a close eye on him.

Prince Longyang contemplated contacting the Immortal Sect Sect Leader using the Sound Transmission Stone right in front of everyone, exposing the Sound Transmission Stone didn’t matter.

It’s better than losing this battle.

Just as he was about to go all in, a white light descended from the sky.

Members of the Immortal Sect arrived.

So much so that Prince Longyang’s motion to take out the Sound Transmission Stone halted abruptly.

But when Prince Longyang saw who had come, he realized the other exuded powerful Demon Qi. Clearly, a Demon Ancestor had arrived.

Sect Leader Wen didn’t appear?

From within the white light, Wood Dragon slowly emerged, then coldly raised his head to glance at Sima Tianxuan suspended above the Purple Treasure Pavilion.

Sima Tianxuan also stared at Wood Dragon, his spearhead even pointing directly at Wood Dragon’s head, overlooking him from a superior position.

"Only one demon came?"

Wood Dragon raised an eyebrow.

Feeling somewhat displeased.

Originally, he was worried about not having anyone to practice with, and even considered going back to find a Demon Emperor from the Sky-Split Race. But then Sima Tianxuan came along, so he volunteered to handle this invader for the Sect and get some practice.

But with that tone.

It made him very upset.

"Truly courting death." Wood Dragon’s face turned cold as his vast azure Demon Power erupted, sending him instantly before Sima Tianxuan.

His arms curved like hooks, aiming to lock Sima Tianxuan!

Sima Tianxuan was shocked.

Such speed!

Startled, he quickly swept his spear in a half-moon arc, intending to push Wood Dragon back a few steps before retreating upwards for a counterattack. But as the spear swept out, it was directly caught by Wood Dragon. Sima Tianxuan tried to yank it away forcefully but to no avail.

Boom—

The next moment, with an explosive burst of Three-Colored Demon Power, the gunhead was snapped at the point held by Wood Dragon.

"My spear!"

What an overbearing Demon Ancestor!

He actually crushed the Three Extremes Spear with his bare hands!

This Three Extremes Spear, though not made from a thousand-year-old Blue-White Ice, was crafted from one of the toughest celestial materials in Heaven-Gazing Gorge.

It was bestowed by the Sovereign upon attaining the Sealing King title.

After sealing the king, it accompanied him in his journey to become the first Sealing King in the Divine Shadow Army and the foremost under He Youyuan in You Country.

Decades ago, this spear survived battles against He Youyuan without damage, yet it broke today in the hands of a Demon Ancestor.

Sima Tianxuan was shocked, not even caring about his broken spear; now he only feared being locked by its hard arms.

Boom—

The Five Veins quaked together.

After the vibration of the Meridian Gate, several layered waves surged forth, propelling him backward and upward by a hundred yards. The waves faced Wood Dragon head-on, but Wood Dragon didn’t retreat a single step, even using Demon Power to break through, relentlessly pursuing Sima Tianxuan.

Seeing this, Sima Tianxuan was not panicked because he anticipated Wood Dragon would not fear these waves, and he didn’t plan to rely on them to delay him for long either.

Boom—

The Five Veins quaked again.

Blue Vein Qi transformed into a spear and then was fiercely thrust into mid-air. From it, a battlefield like a lake surface rapidly formed within a radius of ten thousand meters. At its center, endless ripples continually spread.

Sima Tianxuan stood within, his aura climbing rapidly. Then he condensed another spear, gripping it tightly with one hand.

"You are of the Dragon Race." Sima Tianxuan spoke coldly, "The one I wish to challenge is the Sword God of the Immortal Sect, not you!"

"You?"

Wood Dragon retorted coldly with a sneer, returning the tone Sima Tianxuan used when he first saw Wood Dragon.

After speaking, three-colored flames ignited under Wood Dragon’s feet and rapidly spread, melting the battlefield like a lake surface as they passed. Seeing this, Sima Tianxuan exploded forth, the Five Veins quaking, coldly uttering words.

"Water Mirror: Divine Power Water Strike!"

With these words, the distance between Sima Tianxuan and Wood Dragon shortened, and when they were inches apart, he unleashed a powerful stab.

This strike churned up a thousand waves, piercing through the heights of the Sea of Clouds, also engulfing Wood Dragon within the three-colored sea of flames.

This scene, because it was right above Divine Flight City.

Astounded the people of Divine Flight City.

It also made the Celestial Nether King exclaim in awe, "Such a powerful Celestial Level Middle-grade Vein Technique: Divine Power Water Strike, surpassing the Realm of Perfection with just one move. It has been many years since Sima Tianxuan took anything this seriously. The last time was during the contest for first place in You Country against He Youyuan."

"Who would’ve thought the Immortal Sect could subdue an Upper Realm Dragon Race, and this dragon’s bloodline seems extraordinary. To break the Three Extremes Spear with such a formidable Demon Body and strength, far more terrifying than those fearsome Upper Realm Demon Emperors in the forbidden zones."

The previously silent King of Harmony and Sorrow spoke with a grave expression.

He hadn’t spoken before.

Because it was none of his business, he was reluctant to comment.

Now he spoke.

Because he was concerned.

Also, the Immortal Sect having two Sealing Kings gave him a sense of pressure.

Even if Sima Tianxuan won.

It would be a victory for Prince Longyang.

In You Country, no six-star influence had ever produced two Sealing King experts. With such a sect supporting them, who could compete?

Just then, a voice came from downstairs.

"Your Highness! Your Highness!"

The Celestial Nether King, who was focused on the battle, immediately responded, because the person was his confidant. Recently, he had been at Divine Flight City, attempting to woo the Immortal Sect. Unfortunately, he hadn’t even gotten to meet the Sect Leader of the Immortal Sect.

"Let him come up," said the Celestial Nether King.

The person hurried upstairs and then glanced around, hesitating upon seeing Prince Longyang.

The Celestial Nether King said, "Make your own judgment."

After pondering for a few moments, the person chose to continue speaking, "A few days ago, a Royal Family ancestor visited the Purple Treasure Pavilion and engaged in a rivalry in mid-air with the Sect Leader of the Immortal Sect. No one knows the outcome, but ultimately it was the Sect Leader of the Immortal Sect who returned safely, and the ancestor withdrew."

"Say that again!"

Celestial Nether King exclaimed in shock.

The person quickly knelt and dared not continue speaking.
