System's Super Sect Chapter 1441 - 1218: Vein Sealing Barrier
Previously on System's Super Sect...
"What’s going on?" The King of Harmony and Sorrow immediately pressed.
Blurting out the question in his anxiety, he turned his head and saw that Prince Longyang was actually right beside him. For a moment, he regretted having the King of Chaos stop him.
The man kneeling on the ground did not dare say anything more.
Of course.
He really didn’t know much either.
He could only keep repeating the same sentence, "Your subordinate doesn’t know the specifics, only knows that the battle between the Old Ancestor and the Immortal Sect Sect Leader was extremely brief. And that... that Immortal Sect Sect Leader, with just one person and one sword, actually used a Heaven Unrestricted Middle Realm cultivation to force the Old Ancestor out of Divine Flight City."
"Impossible!"
The Celestial Nether King roared in anger on the spot.
Then he berated furiously, "You don’t know anything, yet you spout such nonsense. The Old Ancestor, forced back by a mere Immortal Sect Sect Leader at Heaven Unrestricted Middle Realm? It was nothing more than the Old Ancestor choosing to yield. Next time something like this happens, think it through before you speak."
He refused to believe that a mere Heaven Unrestricted Middle Realm could force back a Half-Step Primordial Vast.
The Old Ancestor’s retreat definitely had his own reasons.
Otherwise, with the power of a Half-Step Primordial Vast, even a King-Sealing Expert wouldn’t last three moves in his hands, let alone some Heaven Unrestricted Middle Realm nobody.
Under the Celestial Nether King’s scolding, the messenger retreated in terror. But although he left, the suspicious looks on the faces of the King of Harmony and Sorrow and the others did not fade.
Prince Longyang at the side was overjoyed. The thing he’d been most worried about had actually developed in a good direction.
Looks like the Old Ancestor also discovered the extraordinariness of the Immortal Sect. Precisely because of the Immortal Sect’s extraordinary nature, the Old Ancestor did not choose to punish the Immortal Sect.
As for why there was a battle between the Old Ancestor and Sect Leader Wen in the first place, Prince Longyang was curious, but not particularly worried.
The Old Ancestor had withdrawn.
That alone was enough to explain everything.
If the Old Ancestor truly wanted to kill Sect Leader Wen, it would have been impossible for him to retreat.
"King of Chaos, thank you, thank you! If you hadn’t forced your way into Ancestor Mountain, the Immortal Sect might not have won the Old Ancestor’s favor."
Having said that, Prince Longyang, too excited to hold back, strode over and gave the scowling King of Chaos a big hug.
The King of Chaos shoved Prince Longyang away with one hand, then was just about to smash a fist into him, but one sentence from Prince Longyang made him freeze.
"Hit me all you like, this king absolutely won’t fight back."
With that, Prince Longyang even thrust his chest forward a bit.
This made the King of Chaos’s fist hover midair, trembling slightly, unable to land for a long while.
Seeing this, Prince Longyang spoke coldly, "If you don’t dare, then don’t throw tantrums. You can’t even control your own emotions—what makes you think you can ever fight and beat me?"
...
At the same time.
High above Divine Flight City.
The surging waves covering the sky finally stilled. The unscathed figure of Wood Dragon entered everyone’s sight, relentlessly closing in on Sima Tianxuan under the stunned gazes of all.
"If my Immortal Sect’s experts were allowed on the Celestial Ranking, if the Demon Race were allowed on the list, you’d be hard pressed to even squeeze into the top ten of the Upper Realm."
Words that killed both body and heart!
But they also made Sima Tianxuan understand the vast gulf between himself and this Demon Ancestor before him.
No wonder—was he really that far behind?
Harboring both unwillingness and fury, Sima Tianxuan shot forward and launched himself at Wood Dragon with all his might. Wood Dragon was very accommodating, forcibly playing along with him for a full quarter-hour. During this quarter-hour, no matter how Sima Tianxuan attacked, Wood Dragon never dodged.
Of course.
In the meantime, he would also return Sima Tianxuan one punch.
Though it was just one punch, it was wrapped in Three-Colored Flames and infused with a great amount of Power of the Celestial Muddy Cyan Dragon.
With one punch, Sima Tianxuan was blasted back a thousand zhang!
With one punch, Sima Tianxuan’s Spirit Body was damaged by a tenth!
After three punches, the people of Divine Flight City couldn’t help but gasp in amazement again and again.
Too strong.
Truly too strong.
Sima Tianxuan, reputed to be the number one under He Youyuan, actually had no ability to fight back at all, and couldn’t shake the opponent in the slightest.
So this so-called number one Sealing King in the Divine Shadow Army had always just been an empty title.
"Do you still have any doubts about the Celestial Ranking now?" Wood Dragon stood like a towering mountain, letting Sima Tianxuan pour out his attacks, then asked indifferently.
But at this moment, Sima Tianxuan’s eyes were already bloodshot, his mouth muttering the same line over and over, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
It was clear.
His belief.
His confidence.
And the proud backbone he’d built over so many years.
Had all completely collapsed today.
Seeing this, Wood Dragon no longer intended to keep dragging things out. He continued to tank Sima Tianxuan’s offensive head-on and started to relentlessly bombard Sima Tianxuan in return. Although this style of fighting wasn’t particularly advanced, Wood Dragon simply enjoyed this way of battle.
Right at that moment, after being sent flying by a punch, Sima Tianxuan suddenly took out a black object from his Storage Ring.
It was one zhang tall.
Its whole body pitch-black.
Blue fluorescent light wound around its surface.
Sima Tianxuan slapped it into midair, then pressed a blood-drenched hand directly against its pitch-black surface.
After a single breath, it shattered with a roar.
The moment it shattered, a circular blue barrier instantly enveloped the land within a hundred li, including Divine Flight City beneath their feet.
"Vein Sealing Barrier!" Prince Longyang let out a sigh of amazement. He hadn’t expected Thousand Crafts Sect to go so far as to give even this to Sima Tianxuan just to secure victory.
This had originally been the Thousand Crafts Sect’s Treasure!
And rumor had it that two or three thousand years ago, ten Six-Spin Vortex Divine Artisans had joined forces to forge it. After they transcended Heaven-Gazing Gorge, they left it behind.
No one knew if that rumor was true, but one thing was certain: right now in Heaven-Gazing Gorge, there wasn’t a single Six-Spin Vortex Divine Artisan who could recreate it.
Once the Vein Sealing Barrier was activated, it automatically sealed off a hundred li of land. Within the sealed region, all Celestial Level Middle Grade and Celestial Level Top-Grade Vein Techniques could no longer be used.
Its suppression of the Demon Race was even more terrifying.
Their power would plummet by a whole minor Realm!
When Wood Dragon felt his Realm drop back to the Middle Realm, he was a bit surprised, but when he sensed that his Demon Body was still a Demon Immortal Demon Body, he couldn’t be bothered to care.
But at that moment, Sima Tianxuan suddenly let out a cackling laugh. "So what if you’re strong? Today you still die here. Your Realm dropped, but as the activator, I am not restricted by it!"
As his words fell.
Boom—
Wood Dragon blasted him flying with a single punch.
Seriously funny—back when I was in the Middle Realm, I could already kill those in the Upper Realm!
Bang—
Sima Tianxuan plummeted outside Divine Flight City while still cackling, and Wood Dragon immediately manifested his Dragon Body, stomping him underfoot and going all out. Sima Tianxuan struggled, wanting to strike back, but after unleashing another Divine Power Water Strike, he found he still couldn’t shake Wood Dragon in the slightest.
In that instant, the last shred of faith he’d been clinging to collapsed.
Wood Dragon didn’t indulge him. He directly spat out Celestial Turbid Cyan Dragon Demon Power, binding him tightly. Then he used Three-Colored Flames to roast him, heavily damaging his Spirit Body until it was no longer enough to protect him, and the vast Celestial Turbid Cyan Dragon Demon Power poured into his body in a steady stream.
"Aaah—"
Once the Celestial Turbid Cyan Dragon Demon Power entered his body, Sima Tianxuan felt as if he were being torn apart, letting out a miserable scream of agony.
Seeing this, King of Harmony and Sorrow could no longer hold himself back.
Sima Tianxuan must not have an accident!
"Stop!"
Bang—
King of Harmony and Sorrow’s Five Veins trembled in unison, turning into a startling arc of light that shot toward Wood Dragon.
Once he moved, how could Celestial Nether King and the others not understand? So Sima Tianxuan was his man.
The King of Chaos was the most dumbfounded.
Because he had always thought Sima Tianxuan belonged to the Sovereign, and had never had the slightest doubt.
"You really think you and they can truly cooperate? To put it bluntly, you don’t even know that half of your ten most trusted subordinates are their people." After speaking, Prince Longyang silently added another line in his heart: and a few are mine.
The King of Chaos was stunned.
He looked at Prince Longyang, then at Celestial Nether King, King of Harmony and Sorrow, and the others.
At this moment.
He was completely broken.
"I’m done playing!"
With that, the King of Chaos took three quick steps and was already down the stairs.
Seeing this scene, Celestial Nether King and the others didn’t try to stop him.
Because the King of Chaos was already useless.
His greatest value had already vanished once they broke through Ancestor Mountain.
Prince Longyang naturally didn’t stop him either; he only quietly turned his gaze to King of Harmony and Sorrow. He hoped Sima Tianxuan would be beaten to death by Wood Dragon, but that was just his private wish. If Sima Tianxuan were really killed in front of all the kings, the Immortal Sect was definitely in for serious trouble.
After all, on the surface Sima Tianxuan was still the Sovereign’s man.
"Friend, you can stop now. If he dies, the Immortal Sect will be in a lot of trouble." Prince Longyang also spoke up.
As for Celestial Nether King and the others, they didn’t say a word.
Prince Longyang glanced sideways at them and instantly guessed their little scheme.
They were probably more than eager for Sima Tianxuan to die at the Immortal Sect’s hands. Even if they didn’t know Sima Tianxuan was King of Harmony and Sorrow’s man, it was still the same.
Because with Sima Tianxuan’s death, they gained a hundred benefits and not a single drawback. One less competitor, and the Immortal Sect would be dragged into a huge mess.
However, Wood Dragon did not stop at this moment.
"Stop, by this king’s command!"
King of Harmony and Sorrow roared again in fury, but what he got in return was Wood Dragon’s sweeping tail, which slapped him bodily and sent him flying ten thousand zhang away.
After swatting him away, Wood Dragon spoke coldly.
"Who the hell are you?"
