Chapter 691: Chapter 421 Heaven’s Ancestral Path_1
“What do you think? Should we continue to the Eastern Sea, or should we take a trip to Cloud Sky Sect first? Once Cloud Sky Taoist dies, there will be no one left in the Eastern Territory who can restrain the Orthodox Demonic Sect!”
Holy Daoist looked at Logan and asked. He naturally hoped to go to Cloud Sky Sect to help, but he could not do it alone. He needed Logan to take action as well.
After all, his lifespan wasn’t much, and if he fought against three Sanctuary Powerhouses alone, he would definitely consume his life force, something he had to consider.
Logan didn’t hesitate and directly said, “A trip to Cloud Sky Sect will just take half a day. I’d like to see for myself what the Orthodox Demonic Sect is all about!”
The display of strength by unveiling three Sanctuary Powerhouses was unmatched. If such a powerful force existed, why did it remain obscurely patient in the Eastern Territory for so many years?
The two made a swift decision and changed course towards Cloud Sky Sect. Along the way, they saw cultivators fleeing in terror everywhere.
When they arrived at the Sect, corpses were strewn all over the ground. Holy Daoist couldn’t help but sigh; at least ten thousand had fallen.
At the mountain gate, there were tens of thousands of disciples from the Orthodox Demonic Sect standing guard. When they saw Logan and his companion approach, they naturally went into battle formation.
Logan simply sneered and, with just a burst of Thunder and Lightning Laws, more than a thousand people fell to the ground. Such was Logan’s strength now.
Since the day when his mastery over Thunder and Lightning Laws reached Great Achievement, plus his own Quasi-Saint level strength, fighting a Sanctuary Powerhouse wasn’t a problem for him, let alone this group of insignificant clowns.
The remaining members of the Orthodox Demonic Sect were terrified and dared not advance. Logan had no interest in wasting time with them and simply walked past them.
Inside the Sect, a middle-aged man full of tragic fury bellowed, “Orthodox Demonic Sect, do you not fear the Central Region’s reprisal for making such a bold move?”
“Afraid? With three Sanctuary Powerhouses, our Orthodox Demonic Sect has been in this desolate Eastern Territory for many years; it’s about time we return to the Central Region to contend for supremacy!”
Someone shrouded in Demonic Qi and exuding unrivaled arrogance responded, “You Cloud Sky Sect pride yourselves as the number one Sect in the Eastern Territory, but now your Sect has only a few hundred people left. Do you really plan on holding out?”
With a hint of contempt, Cang Demonic Blade decided today was the end of Cloud Sky Sect, and after that, he would proceed to the Central Region. His plans of many years were finally coming to fruition.
“Let me tell you something else. Neither Demonic Sky Gate of the Western Wasteland nor Blood Drinking Sect of the Central Region are more than pawns of our Orthodox Demonic Sect. Thus, we don’t care in the slightest about the fall of these two Great Sects. They simply served to prove one thing.”
“And that is how many Sanctuary Powerhouses still exist in the Central Region and the Western Wasteland. The answer is none, although a young fellow did turn the tide. But he isn’t a Sanctuary Powerhouse, and besides, he’s already headed for the Extreme Cold Lands, probably to the Ancient Secret Realm like the other Sanctuary Powerhouses!”
Cang Demonic Blade walked forward triumphantly, “Who else can stop me? With three Sanctuary Powerhouses here, with a wave of our hand, the Eastern Territory could be obliterated in an instant!”
“Don’t be arrogant. Dozens of Sanctuary Powerhouses from the Ancient Secret Realm, like me, have already emerged!” An old man covered in wounds yelled furiously from the ground.
Thornwell Nango was treating the old man’s injuries and said, “Supreme Elder, please calm yourself. We need time for you to heal and recover!”
“Do you even have the nerve to speak? As a Sanctuary Powerhouse, your combat power is so weak. After just ten rounds, you were already at your last gasp!”
Cang Demonic Blade snorted with laughter, completely disregarding the old man. Indeed, the emergence of a Sanctuary Powerhouse from Cloud Sky Sect had truly scared him, but the old man’s combat power was too inferior. Without much effort from their three Sanctuary Powerhouses, the opponent was already beaten.
“Dozens of Sanctuary Powerhouses from the Ancient Secret Realm are out? Keep bluffing. Even if they were really about to come out, that would be from the Ancient Secret Realm opening in ten years!”
“If you are indeed the Supreme Elder Cloud Sky Taoist of Cloud Sky Sect, there were rumors that you entered the Ancient Secret Realm a hundred years ago. I think you’ve actually been hiding in Cloud Sky Sect all along; you couldn’t have come from the Ancient Secret Realm.”
He didn’t believe a bit of it; with many Sanctuary Powerhouses trapped in the Secret Realm for decades, they were probably long turned to dust, so how could they possibly return safely?
The Cloud Sky Taoist was furious. It was only because his lifespan was short and he was running out of energy that he wasn’t able to fully exert his strength. How else would he tolerate such insolence from these people?
He glanced at the few hundred people in the Sect, struggling to stand up. “I’ve been absent for a hundred years and already let down my Sect too much. Today, no matter what, I must protect you, even if it means sacrificing my entire Dantian and taking the three Sanctuary Powerhouses with me!”
“Supreme Elder, think twice!” Orion Nango exclaimed in alarm, “Didn’t you say dozens of Sanctuary Powerhouses have already emerged? There’s hope if you survive. We are willing to fight the Orthodox Demonic Sect to carve a bloody path for you to seek help from those Sanctuary Powerhouses, to avenge Cloud Sky Sect!”
“After the battle just now, I’m already burnt out!” Cloud Sky Taoist shook his head, his eyes filled with desolation. He had thought that Holy Daoist had obtained the Inheritance of the Secret Realm, and he would have a chance to extend his lifespan and continue on the path of cultivation. But everything had been fleeting like an ephemeral flower.
“Remember, no matter what happens to Cloud Sky Sect afterwards, we owe Logan a favor. I won’t be able to return it, but the descendants of Cloud Sky Sect must repay him!”
As Cloud Sky Taoist waved his talismans, he was about to sacrifice his Dantian. This scene made even Cang Demonic Blade and the thousands with him retreat dozens of steps.
A frown crossed the face of an Elder beside Cang Demonic Blade, who then earnestly said, “Once a Sanctuary Powerhouse sacrifices their Dantian, they can obtain a combat power amplified by nearly a hundredfold. Even with three Sanctuary Powerhouses, we won’t be able to handle it. Why not retreat first and come back after he falls?”
