Chapter 559: Sacred Fireworks

"Clearly, your intelligence is flawed. It is impossible for him to be merely a Supreme; he might even be an Invincible One among Supremes. Otherwise, it would be impossible for us to have failed to detect him, nearly descending."

Number Three, surrounded by the Great Dao, analyzed calmly.

The other nine nodded.

This was now somewhat troublesome. If a single attack from a Forbidden Weapon could not erase this Supreme, then they would have made a losing deal this time.

"Do you think this person might be related to the mission target?"

At this moment, Number One spoke as if by divine inspiration.

The rest of the group was taken aback.

Although Number One's suspicion was completely devoid of evidence, as someone who attained the Dao as a pure martial artist, his intuition was extremely sharp. Perhaps it was truly as he said—was there really a connection?

"Regardless of whether there is a connection, we must proceed with caution and make thorough preparations. When necessary, we must even maintain corresponding contact and communication with the Venerables to prevent capsizing in the gutter."

Number Three pushed up his glasses and said calmly.

"Let me go and test him first."

At this moment, Number Two, who had been taciturn all along and appeared both infinitely True Reality and infinitely Illusion, wandering between the real and the fake, suddenly spoke up.

"If this person is truly related to the Number Five Strange Object, then we must test him first. Otherwise, if we use a Forbidden Weapon to snipe him, we might lose the clues to Number Five forever."

The other nine fell into hesitation.

They admitted that what Number Two said made sense, but would any accidents occur if he went to probe alone? This was not an ordinary Supreme.

At the same time, they knew well the principle that splitting up easily leads to trouble.

"Rest assured, I wander between True Reality and Illusion; apart from those few Venerables, who can capture me?"

Number Two spoke proudly.

He was the second strongest among the ten, already a Peak Divine. If he were to step into the ranks of the Supremes, he could guarantee that even those few Venerables would not be able to capture him.

"No, acting alone easily leads to trouble."

Number One frowned, rejecting Number Two's words.

However, the next moment, his tone shifted.

"If you insist on testing him, we can provide support from the shadows. Once you obtain results from your probe, we will act immediately to suppress this person with lightning speed."

"This can also prevent this person from escaping."

The other nine nodded upon hearing this; it should be done this way.

They were now secretly assembling and setting up the Forbidden Weapon. Once the preparations were complete, they would let Number Two go and test to get results, then decide whether to snipe him or capture him.

At this time, the complexions of the Three Elders—Fu, Lu, and Shou—also looked somewhat ugly.

They were not simple Supremes; they had even walked the path of the Weird, only they were hiding it now and had not revealed their true strength. Yet, this person had actually taken advantage of them hiding their strength to manifest his holiness in public and mock them?

It was simply slapping them in the face, over and over again.

At this time, Shou Lao spoke.

"Have you finished discussing over there? The three of us will cooperate with you to set up a Heavenly Net to prevent that person from escaping."

The other two elders also nodded, appearing very proactive.

The ten people from the Multiverse Alliance were somewhat silent upon hearing this.

They were, after all, able to hear the subtext.

What did "prevent that person from escaping" mean? It was nothing more than "I'll provide support, you carry," or even a hint of putting in effort without actually contributing. Clearly, they were borrowing their power to exhaust that Supreme, and they didn't even think they could solve that Supreme.

Although they indeed did not need the help of the Three Elders, seeing three outsiders sit back and reap the benefits without exerting much power made them feel very unhappy.

Number One stepped forward and spoke calmly.

"The three of you, it is you who provoked this Supreme. I have no doubt that if this Supreme escapes alive, the first person he will retaliate against will definitely be you, so you must do your best. Our origins are not something you can imagine; we have our own ways to escape, and in the end, it is you who will suffer."

He did not speak empty words, directly stating the pros and cons of the matter.

"Easily said, easily said."

Shou Lao replied with narrowed eyes.

The three of them were not scared easily; which one of them wasn't an old fox? Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to escape the calamity of the Heavenly Court's destruction back then and live until now.

However, what these ten people with mysterious origins said did make sense. If they could be sure of a one-hit kill, there would be no need to hide anything; kill the enemy first, then talk about the rest.

But these ten people were indeed arrogant in their speech, actually saying their origins were not something they could imagine? They were just a bunch of juniors who weren't even Supremes, yet they dared to speak such wild words? Even when they were ranked among the Three Dukes of the Heavenly Court back then, they wouldn't have said such things.

Or did they really have the corresponding confidence?

The Three Elders narrowed their eyes slightly, their gazes deep, thinking of the Immortal Gods who had left back then and whose whereabouts were unknown in the end.

"This fellow Daoist, I always feel you are somewhat familiar."

Shou Lao spoke, looking at Number Ten as if by divine inspiration...

On Li Heng's side.

The Sacred were ultimately tenacious and hard to kill. Apart from Xuelianzi, who served as the fuse for the explosion and died completely, contributing five hundred Golden Source Points to him, the other Sacred of the Three Immortals Sect affected by the explosion were severely injured but ultimately still alive.

These Three Immortals Sect Sacred were somewhat mixed with the Weird; perhaps they had long since become the so-called "Weird." Li Heng happened to be curious about them, so he gathered these Sacred, these Weird, and observed them carefully, as if observing white mice.

Shentu and Yulei, who were watching from the sidelines, breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

It seemed this terrifyingly powerful Supreme had not seen through their identities? However, they had already begun to beat a retreat in their hearts, stepping backward, imperceptibly.

Then, laughter rang out.

"Oh, I missed two more white mice."

An invisible strange force rose, directly suppressing Shentu and Yulei, catching them in front of Li Heng and throwing them into the gathered Sacred or Weird, looking somewhat pitiful.

The Shengsheng Mengzhu and other Sacred did not dare to intervene.

After all, in his mind, Shentu and Yulei might have had problems long ago, but he had never had evidence to be sure. Now, this Supreme who suppressed the Three Immortals Sect had made a move, which just happened to prove this point.

Rather than thinking about these two traitors and spies, it was better to consider how to fish in troubled waters and gain benefits within the Three Immortals Sect. It was just that this Supreme had been here the whole time, and even claimed to be the Sect Master.

He found it difficult to make a move.

With such a commotion occurring at the Three Immortals Sect, other powers and experts in the World Sea should have noticed; when they gather together and the situation becomes chaotic, perhaps he will have a chance?

"I heard you are 'Gui', so show me."

Li Heng spoke indifferently.

But these Three Immortals Sect Sacreds remained unmoved. After all, the Three Elders of Fortune, Prosperity, and Longevity were not dead yet; how could they dare to commit such an act of betrayal? It would be better to just play dumb and charge forward first.

Li Heng did not care about this; it was a perfect excuse to kill and harvest Golden Source Power.

He thought for a moment, deciding to kill half of them at random. With a flick of his mind, half of the Three Immortals Sect Sacreds turned into fireworks; it looked incredibly magnificent, yet it was bone-chilling.

"Alright, you may continue to demonstrate."

He smiled as he spoke, and the surviving Sacreds turned deathly pale.
