Chapter 878: Collecting Debts!

In the vast Five Elements Domain, after many years, the Five-Finger Mountain appeared again.

Those five mountain peaks, which looked like fingers, had been destroyed by a powerful Demon Emperor many years ago; their reappearance now represented that the Five Elements Divine Sect had returned to its former position.

It was just that whether there was a Nascent Soul head sitting in charge on the five peaks was another matter.

And outside the Five-Finger Mountain, there was another towering mountain peak hidden in the mist all year round, looking down on everything in the Five Elements Divine Sect from high above.

That was the place of cultivation for the Five Elements Divine Sect's Supreme Elder, True Person Ancestor Shenyuan!

It was also a forbidden land within the current Divine Sect that made people turn pale at the mention of it.

Many disciples who accidentally entered it would disappear, and even Sect Master Shenhuo himself would find it difficult to find them back.

The world did not know what had happened to the Supreme Elder, but Sect Master Shenhuo had repeatedly ordered that no one was allowed to approach Ancestor Shenyuan Shanfeng!

On this day.

Sect Master Shenhuo stood on another cliff, looking at Ancestor Shenyuan Shanfeng not far away, his expression hesitant and conflicted.

Under his diligent governance over the past few decades, the Five Elements Divine Sect had gradually shown signs of prosperity.

Especially the number of Nascent Soul True Persons, after many years of silence, had finally begun to erupt.

No matter how you looked at it, the future of the Divine Sect was a picture of great prosperity.

But this world, in the end, does not let people be at peace!

The demon race attacked again, and this time, behind them, there was the personal support of that terrifying Lord of Mount Cangwu Mountain.

The hegemon of Central State descended strongly on the Eastern Wasteland, wanting to conquer the Eastern Wasteland cultivation world.

To be honest, whether it was submitting to the Mingyuan Sect or living under the Ancestor Tianyuan Dao Sect, it didn't matter to these major Nascent Soul powers.

It was just changing a piece of sky.

But when two poles oppose, there must be a battle!

The current Five Elements Divine Sect really couldn't afford to be tossed around anymore.

Sect Master Shenhuo didn't want to watch the great situation he had worked so hard to support be destroyed by that damned Human-Demon War.

He wanted to seek an audience with his Qi Qi Shixiong.

As one of the only three Great Cultivators of the late Nascent Soul stage remaining in the Eastern Wasteland, his Qi Qi Shixiong was famous.

If he was willing to take the initiative to go to the Ancestor Tianyuan Dao Sect to plead for mercy and seek some easy and safe tasks for the Five Elements Divine Sect in the coming war, that would be the best.

Just like that lucky Divine Talisman Sect!

I heard they received the protection of a big figure from the Ancestor Tianyuan Dao Sect, so they didn't have to go to the front line personally, only needing to provide a large number of talismans stably.

This kind of thing, his Five Elements Divine Sect could actually do too!

And because of the comprehensiveness of the Five Elements Divine Sect, they could do it even better!

But his Qi Qi Shixiong hadn't shown his face for a long time, and even when the Ancestor Tianyuan Dao Sect powerhouses came to recruit, he hadn't appeared.

It was as if he was indifferent to everything in the outside world.

"Qi Qi Shixiong, what exactly are you thinking?"

Sect Master Shenhuo muttered, his expression gradually becoming firm.

He heard that there was a mountain in Central State called Heaven and Earth Shanfeng!

Connecting heaven and earth, magnificent and spectacular!

The Ancestor Tianyuan Dao Sect established a special organization on it—the Star Gate, specifically used to accept powerhouses from outside states.

Especially some powerhouses who were old and had high realms, the Star Gate liked to accept them the most.

With his Qi Qi Shixiong's realm and strength, even in the Star Gate, he would likely be an outstanding figure.

If his Qi Qi Shixiong joined the Star Gate, then the Five Elements Divine Sect would have a backer in the future war and could avoid some dangerous wars.

Of course!

Sect Master Shenhuo also had a little careful thought in his heart.

His Qi Qi Shixiong staying in the sect now was really too dangerous.

If he left the Divine Sect, perhaps it would be a good thing for the sect?

Thinking of this, Sect Master Shenhuo made up his mind and prepared to visit his Qi Qi Shixiong on Ancestor Shenyuan Shanfeng personally.

"I have inquired about this with the Ancestor Tianyuan Dao Sect powerhouses, and they swore that it is feasible, and the Dao Sect Great Power currently sitting in the Eastern Wasteland also has some interest in Qi Qi Shixiong and is willing to accept him into the Star Gate."

"As long as Qi Qi Shixiong agrees, for the future war, for the development of the sect, and even for Qi Qi Shixiong's desire to seek a fifth-order spiritual land to cultivate and promote to Soul Transformation, as long as he enters Heaven and Earth Shanfeng, this is also a good thing for him personally."

"Three birds with one stone; he should agree, right!"

Sect Master Shenhuo firmed up his idea again, his mood no longer anxious, and he took a step forward, preparing to go to Ancestor Shenyuan Shanfeng.

However, the next moment, his pupils shrank, and his expression changed drastically.

He saw the vast clouds and mist that shrouded Ancestor Shenyuan Shanfeng all year round begin to tremble violently.

The towering sea of clouds actually showed signs of collapsing.

"How is this possible?"

"That is Qi Qi Shixiong's proudest Nine Heavens Cloud Chi Star-Locking Formation, even above the sect-protecting formation; how could it collapse suddenly?"

Just as he was puzzled.

The vast clouds and mist suddenly became agile.

As the clouds and mist flowed, a snow-white python, surrounded by dots of starlight, stood with its head held high, its fierce gaze instantly locked onto a certain place.

"Roar!"

As the starlight Chi-Dragon roared, it rushed toward that place regardless of everything.

Whoosh...

The mountain wind blew, and a figure slowly emerged.

Facing the rushing Chi-Dragon, he was unhurried, pointing a finger, which landed on the Chi-Dragon's forehead.

Instantly, the starlight Chi-Dragon was hit hard and collapsed instantly.

However, the man in white was not happy, but frowned instead.

"The old thief's formation attainments are somewhat beyond my expectations."

Sure enough, the collapsed Chi-Dragon generated again in the vast sea of clouds, its ferocious gaze looking at Luo Chen again.

Boom!

A large amount of clouds and mist rushed toward the man in white as the Chi-Dragon shook its head and tail.

Forcing him to retreat continuously.

Seeing this scene, Sect Master Shenhuo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although this person didn't know what method he used to temporarily crack his Qi Qi Shixiong's peak-protecting formation, he clearly didn't clean up his tracks well and left some loose ends.

Just right, it also gave him enough reaction time.

However!

In a fleeting glance, when he saw the man in white's face, Shenhuo's expression changed completely.

It was Luo Chen!

A sharp voice came from his mouth, spreading throughout the entire Five Elements Divine Sect.

"Enemy attack!"

Instantly, the entire Five Elements Divine Sect moved.

There was the sound of bells ringing, nine times in a row.

There was vast mana, surging and erupting.

And there were rays of light rushing into the sky from various peaks and valleys, rushing toward Ancestor Shenyuan Shanfeng.

Facing the many disturbances, Luo Chen smiled helplessly.

The current him naturally couldn't do what Sovereign Sovereign Qixia did, forcefully killing his way into the belly of someone else's sect and slapping down Mount Yanfu Mountain with one palm.

Even, it could be said that even Sovereign Sovereign Qixia relied on the incarnation of the Ancestor Tianyuan Ancestor and Luo Chen as an anchor to achieve success in one strike.

So Luo Chen could only sneak in quietly, intending to first solve the peak-protecting formation of Ancestor Shenyuan Shanfeng, and then settle the old debt with the old thief Ancestor Shenyuan that had been accumulating for two hundred years!

The action was a bit sneaky, but for revenge, only the result matters.

Only, there was a little accident in the process.

The old thief Ancestor Shenyuan's formation attainments were beyond the world's expectations.

He actually also had the level of a formation master!

"However, this formation has flaws after all."

Luo Chen sneered, ignoring the starlight Chi-Dragon that was dying and living in an endless cycle.

Mana flowed at his fingertips, and incantations were pinched quickly.

Then he suddenly slapped the ground with his palm!

"Mountain Collapse!"

The terrifying mana fluctuation swept through the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, spreading from Luo Chen as the center toward the towering Ancestor Shenyuan Shanfeng.

Not only that, a black light flew out from Luo Chen's arm, roared, and turned into a giant dragon hundreds of feet long.

Blackie had already received Luo Chen's order, so naturally, it knew what to do next.

It rushed toward Ancestor Shenyuan Shanfeng without fear of death, its massive body beginning to circle and coil around the mountain, spiraling upward.

Terrifying power erupted from both outside and inside simultaneously.

In the terrified eyes of the powerhouses who rushed over one after another, the spiritual mountain that hadn't collapsed even during the Human-Demon War began to crack inch by inch.

The man in white slowly stood up, looking at Ancestor Shenyuan Shanfeng. Boom!

Only a loud noise was heard, and the towering giant mountain collapsed!

The vast sea of clouds also vanished into thin air.

The starlight Chi-Dragon in the sea of clouds, after a whimper, was never seen again.

At this moment, the mountain collapsed and the earth cracked, like the end of the world.

Luo Chen looked at the huge mountain collapsing and shouted from afar: "Old thief Ancestor Shenyuan, how long are you going to hide?"

The questioning voice turned into a majestic sound wave, spreading throughout the entire Five Elements Divine Sect.

However!

No response!

There was only the sound of angry shouting behind Luo Chen.

"Bold!"

"What kind of petty thief dares to offend my Divine Sect?"

"Take down this arrogant person!"

Facing the questions, Luo Chen frowned and turned around.

Only then did his true face appear before the four Nascent Soul True Persons who had rushed over in a hurry.

Since it was revenge, why hide his head and tail? Now his face was Luo Chen's original appearance.

At just one glance, Qi Qi Emei lost her voice: "Dan Sect Senior?"

"Demon-Slaying True Person, Luo Chen!" Another person blurted out.

Yao Hong's expression was suspicious, "Senior, why are you acting like this?"

In the eyes of many, Luo Chen was a legend.

A legend who rose rapidly and resounded through the Eastern Wasteland.

Especially his generous and charitable behavior toward the younger generation had won him the favor of many.

Even though Qi Qi Emei and the others had promoted to the Nascent Soul realm, they still called him "Senior" out of habit.

To their questions, Luo Chen did not answer, but nodded instead.

"In just a few decades, the Five Elements Divine Sect has cultivated three new Nascent Souls; it really has a deep foundation!"

Subsequently, his gaze shifted and fell on the current Divine Sect Sect Master, Shenhuo.

"Shenhuo, you should understand why I came today, right?"

Sect Master Shenhuo stammered, unable to speak for a long time.

Luo Chen shook his head, "Not to mention your sect's Supreme Elder's dark thoughts about me, just the matter of the three great Demon Emperors besieging me in the Medicine King Domain back then cannot escape the hands of your Supreme Elder. I came here today just to collect a debt!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Qi Qi Emei and the other three looked at each other.

The details of the Medicine King Domain war had gradually spread over these years.

The number of top powerhouses involved was almost no less than the most dangerous time of the Human-Demon War.

Especially in that battle, the strength of Dan Sect's Luo Chen was exaggerated to the extreme.

Facing the siege of three great Demon Emperors, he not only survived but also personally killed the Huang Man Great Demon Emperor, the son of the Ancient Demon Emperor Ditian!

Such a battle result could almost rival the time when the Master Qing Shuang Demon Emperor, the number one person under Soul Transformation, fought alone against the three major human cultivators.

But the result of that battle was not only Luo Chen's great victory, but also the tragic event of Luo Chen being seriously injured and fleeing, spending ten years in a secret place to recover before returning.

Now, the person involved said personally that the reason he fell into such a dangerous situation was the secret means of the Five Elements Divine Sect's Supreme Elder?

Once this spreads, the reputation of the Five Elements Divine Sect's Supreme Elder for harming fellow cultivators during the Human-Demon War will be completely ruined.

Even if it doesn't spread, just at this moment, it made the Divine Sect cultivators feel uneasy.

Seeing the atmosphere take a sharp turn for the worse, Sect Master Shenhuo finally couldn't sit still.

He said sternly: "Luo Chen, this is just a crime you're trying to pin on us; words are not proof, do you have evidence?"

"Evidence?" Luo Chen laughed.

The loud laughter spread throughout the wilderness, making the low-level disciples of the Five Elements Divine Sect who were constantly rushing over feel their blood and qi restless, their mana chaotic, and even their minds dazed.

Under the awe-struck gaze of Sect Master Shenhuo and the four Nascent Soul True Persons, Luo Chen floated up slowly, with the scene of the mountain constantly collapsing behind him.

"What evidence do you want?"

"For our kind, we only seek to have our thoughts clear!"

"The resentment your Five Elements Divine Sect has held against me, Luo Chen, has accumulated for I don't know how many years; today, let's settle it all at once!"

While speaking, Luo Chen's spiritual sense spread, and his powerful Nascent Soul domain was suddenly released.

In just an instant, it firmly suppressed the four restless Nascent Soul True Persons.

The terrifying suppression made the four change their expressions.

Especially Qi Qi Emei and the other three newly promoted Nascent Souls, who thought that after achieving the True Person realm, they could go anywhere in the world.

However, only now did they know that there is a heaven beyond heaven, and people beyond people.

Even if they were both in the Nascent Soul realm, there was a difference between heaven and earth.

Luo Chen looked at the four people who had surrendered under his domain, as well as the vast number of low-level cultivators who didn't even dare to look at him, and only felt bored.

"Old thief Ancestor Shenyuan, are you still not appearing? Do you really want to force me to start a massacre?"

In the silence, a hoarse and sinister voice sounded.

"The enemy has invaded, why haven't you made a move yet?"

An equally powerful Nascent Soul domain was released from the broken Ancestor Shenyuan Shanfeng.

It instantly collided with Luo Chen's domain.

Boom!

Ripples bloomed in the void.

Because of this collision, Luo Chen naturally couldn't suppress the others.

Sect Master Shenhuo suddenly shouted, "Kill him! Invading the belly of my Divine Sect, provoking internal strife while the demon race is deploying troops—even if the Ancestor Tianyuan Dao Sect asks personally, we have reason to speak."

Above the nine heavens.

A flying shuttle was looming.

Old Fu's expression was slightly worried, "Four Nascent Soul True Persons, and the top powerhouse True Person Ancestor Shenyuan secretly watching—does Luo Chen really not need our help?"

Beside him, Fairy Canglong smiled slightly, her eyes full of trust in Luo Chen.

"No need; with Qi Qi Shixiong Luo Chen's methods, as long as they are not Great Cultivator-level powerhouses, no matter how many come, it's just a drop in the bucket."

Old Fu glanced at Fairy Canglong, then looked at the battlefield below, his expression quite complex.

He was shocked by Luo Chen's powerful strength, and felt sad because of the sudden appearance of three new Nascent Souls in the Five Elements Divine Sect and an extra new Nascent Soul in the Luo Tian Sect.

Why didn't his Divine Talisman Sect have such new powerhouses!

Of course, this thought was just a flash, and his attention was more focused on the battle below.

Does Luo Chen really have the strength to suppress all living beings now?

Amidst the loud shouts, Sect Master Shenhuo was the first to make a move.

Opening his mouth, a crimson flame rushed directly toward Luo Chen.

Luo Chen frowned slightly, his spiritual sense still spreading, flowing against the current, trying to find the trace of the old thief Ancestor Shenyuan.

Facing Sect Master Shenhuo's methods, he was completely unmoved.

Playing with fire?

In front of him, Luo Chen, this is seeking one's own death!

He didn't even make any big movements, just grabbed into the void, and that crimson flame was obediently grabbed into his hand, circling around his fingertips.

Not only that, as Luo Chen pulled his fingers back.

Instantly, something seemed to be pulled out from Sect Master Shenhuo's body.

"Is this your Origin True Fire?"

Pfft!

Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Sect Master Shenhuo's expression was incomparably terrified.

How could the Origin True Fire he had refined for hundreds of years be broken so easily, and even be directly pulled out?

It seemed as if the other party was the master of his Origin True Fire?

How did he know that Luo Chen was a master of playing with fire, and his attainments in controlling fire could be called one of the best in this world.

Also because he practiced the "Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana Sutra," the most top-tier fire-attribute cultivation technique, he had immunity and even suppression effects on most fire-type attacks.

Most importantly, he had already realized the Origin of Fire!

Showing off fire in front of him is like playing with a big sword in front of Guan Gong.

Following Sect Master Shenhuo's move, the other three Nascent Soul powerhouses also moved.

To this, Luo Chen just smiled contemptuously.

"You are all seeking your own death!" (End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 879 =====
