Chapter 607: Chapter 557 He’s Too Mysterious

рlease,reading On ΒΟXΝOVEL.ϹʘM

Time passed and the leader of the Nefarious Alliance, Zhao Baiyang, came out of seclusion. He broke into the ongoing battlefield between the human race and the demon race, successively killing several great demons who were on the sixth level of the Spirit Realm and even went toe-to-toe with a Demon King who was on the seventh level, emerging unscathed from the battle. This sent shockwaves through the world.

No one expected this, Zhao Baiyang, who had not taken action in decades, would show such strength. Many forces that had once looked down on the Nefarious Alliance instantly changed their previous attitudes and began to reinspect their stance.

Being able to contend with a Demon King at the seventh level of the Spirit Realm and remain unscathed, even though he didn’t suppress the Demon King, at least proved that he was capable of fighting at the same level.

Such a strong individual, even in the Sky Wasteland, could be classified as one of the top powerhouses, singlehandedly able to support a second-rate faction, and qualify to dominate one side.

Therefore, with Zhao Baiyang now having such qualifications, the powerful forces in the Sky Wasteland must change their attitudes toward the Nefarious Alliance, as they now pose a threat to their own standing.

The clearest indicator was that outside territories of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, some forces that had been targeting the Nefarious Alliance abruptly changed their styles and chose to concede many resources.

This alone proved just how clear and stark the understanding of “survival of the fittest” was among the powers of the Sky Wasteland.

They clearly understood that Zhao Baiyang was fully aware of their targeting of the Nefarious Alliance. His active move against the demon race was a show of strength. If they did not heed this warning, then Zhao Baiyang would certainly not show mercy.

No matter what they thought, the current situation did not allow them to act against the Nefarious Alliance. After all, there were plenty of unowned lands. Why provoke a powerful figure over such a matter?

Zhao Baiyang was very satisfied with this outcome.

However, just then, another major event happened.

Xue Wuheng, the leader of the Demonic Cult, emerged from seclusion. He located Wang Changqing of the Hell Demon Sect, forcefully killed him, but let Yang Yongxiu escape.

Even so, Xue Wuheng’s slaying of Wang Changqing surprised many powerful forces.

After all, everyone was well aware of the incident where Wang Changqing and Yang Yongxiu had ambushed Xue Wuheng. But it was surprising when the injured Wang Changqing was counterattacked by Xue Wuheng.

Now, thirty years had passed, and Wang Changqing’s wounds should have healed. Wang Changqing, a cultivator of the demonic way from the Hell Demon Sect, had many hidden aces up his sleeve. However, he was killed by Xue Wuheng. This undoubtedly confirmed the rapid progress Xue Wuheng had made in these thirty years.

First, it was Zhao Baiyang, and now Xue Wuheng. Their successive actions shocked both the Sky Wasteland and the Daming World.

Before the revival of Heaven and Earth, these individuals were powerful forces suppressing the world. However, with the changes brought by the revival, their strengths were continuously improving. But compared to the emerging powerful forces from the Sky Wasteland, they inevitably seemed a bit lacking, gradually distancing themselves from the top.

Many people believed that after the revival reached its peak and ancient powers from the Sky Wasteland returned, these original powerhouses would inevitably become indistinguishable from ordinary people, losing their ability to stir up the world.

Some argued that these individuals had become history. In their view, the only ones capable of stirring up the world and claiming a place when Great World truly arrives would be Pei Xuanjing, who overwhelmed the world at the time, and His Majesty, the Emperor of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty.

However, the reality proved many people wrong. The actions of Zhao Baiyang and Xue Wuheng told everyone that they were still relevant and maintained their position at the very top.

Many wondered if these two could achieve this, what about those powerhouses, who once ranked alongside them?

Could individuals like Taoist Qingxu and Elder Tianshi also have made tremendous progress and possess great strength during these thirty years?

If these two individuals also made significant progress, then what about that person hidden within the depths of the Taoist Academy? Thirty years ago, he could easily suppress cultivators of the seventh level of the Spirit Realm. With thirty more years having passed, his strength might have become even stronger.

This thought added pressure to many powerhouses in the Sky Wasteland. The revival of the Heaven and Earth in the ancestral land seemed to not possess the straightforward advantage they had imagined.

Of course, nobody would forget His Majesty, the Emperor of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty. Despite his lack of action, no one would ignore this powerhouse as the Great Ming Divine Dynasty continually grew stronger.

“The strength of these two individuals has actually reached such an extent. It seems that over these thirty years, everyone has advanced without pausing.” Zhu Houji’s indifferent voice echoed throughout the palace.

At this moment, he was not wearing a yellow robe. Instead, he had put on a Taoist robe. Paired with his lean stature, he had the appearance of a Taoist immortal.

Although he hadn’t thought like many others, assuming that Zhao Baiyang and Xue Wuheng would blend into the crowd, he did not expect that they would make such progress in only thirty years.

“What do you think, how much has Master Pei gained in these thirty years? To which step has he advanced in his realm?” Zhu Houji looked at Wu Shijiu and asked.

Ever since cooperating with Wu Shijiu and understanding his objectives, their relationship had grown closer, and they became increasingly intertwined by mutual interests.

Upon hearing the Emperor’s question, Wu Shijiu hesitated for a moment, his eyes shone brightly, then he shook his head slightly and said, “Wu Shijiu is not certain.”

The Nine Realms of Spirit, each step is like ascending the heavens. After stepping into the seventh level of the Spiritual Realm, no one could easily make further progress, even those with exceptional talents.

From the seventh level to the eighth level of the Spiritual Realm is one step at a time. This hurdle might be too high for many to cross in their lifetime. Thirty years were but the blink of an eye for a cultivator at the seventh level of the Spirit Realm. To achieve another breakthrough in such short a time was not easy.

However, the person he faced was Pei Xuanjing.

Considering Pei Xuanjing’s extraordinary journey, anyone else would not have achieved his current prominence. Yet, Pei Xuanjing had done so.

Therefore, despite his own experiences, Wu Shijiu dared not judge Pei Xuanjing’s progress based on common sense.

“Indeed, Master Pei’s mystery is known to none.” Zhu Houji sighed.

Master Pei was indeed mysterious. It seemed that his hidden strength could never be fully revealed. It seemed impossible ever to gauge the depth of his strength fully. He could always break people’s conventional thinking, so no one dared to underestimate him.

“Let’s put aside Master Pei’s matter for now. Your trouble seems to be approaching.” Zhu Houji said to Wu Shijiu.
