Chapter 1168 - 1168 The Secretly Cowardly Huangnie Path
These few figures who appeared out of nowhere were shrouded in a cyan radiance, looking mysterious and transcendent.
The many immortal academy disciples present were all puzzled.
This time the Void Heaven Realm had opened, only their immortal academy disciples had entered.
Where on earth had these people crawled out from?
And their manner of speaking was full of arrogance and condescension.
Although the attitude and bearing of these few people was somewhat off-putting.
One had to admit, however, that their primordial spirit aura was overwhelmingly vast, like the heavens themselves.
Not a bit weaker than Huang Nie Dao, Jun Bieli, and the others.
"You also want the Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal Root?"
Huang Nie Dao's expression turned cold and stern.
He had already come to regard the Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal Root as his own possession, and would not tolerate others laying a hand on it.
Boom!
Without any unnecessary words, Huang Nie Dao struck directly, his surging undying flames transforming into countless flame sword feathers that swept forward.
Yet those few figures merely let out a light laugh, their attitude utterly casual.
They struck out with their palms, and an immeasurably vast soul force surged, as though the heavens themselves were overturning.
All manner of strange and wondrous phenomena appeared.
Ancient gods prostrated themselves in worship, ten thousand spirits offered prayers, the omens were terrifyingly astonishing.
It was hard to imagine what power these few people could possibly come from.
Boom!
After a single clash, those few figures did not budge in the slightest.
A flicker of surprise crossed Huang Nie Dao's eyes.
Although he had not gone all out, that move was absolutely not something an ordinary person could withstand.
"What's wrong, surprised?"
"If I told you that within the younger generation of my clan, my strength is only considered middling, would you be even more astonished?"
Seeing the slight surprise on Huang Nie Dao's face, the one who had stepped forward said calmly.
"How is that possible?!"
The immortal academy disciples present all drew a sharp breath.
The strength of these few people was considered only middling within their own faction?
Did that not mean that even someone like Huang Nie Dao, a true-born son of an ancient emperor, could at best be considered excellent in such a faction, and could not reach the very top?
That was truly terrifying.
It was hard to imagine what kind of power could have such extraordinary depth.
"What faction do you come from exactly?" Huang Nie Dao's brow also furrowed.
He felt the situation had become somewhat troublesome, beyond his control.
The leading figure calmly uttered four words: "Feng Tian Cheng Yun."
The moment those four words were spoken, Huang Nie Dao's pupils suddenly contracted.
He was, after all, a true-born son of an ancient emperor, and his vision was far from ordinary.
Those four words, combined with the faint trace of heavenly dao aura emanating from these few people.
He immediately thought of one clan.
One that had been hidden behind the eons.
The supreme power lurking beneath the surface of the immortal domain.
The Cang Clan!
Huang Nie Dao's pupils trembled.
"Unexpected, that this golden great age would actually draw out this clan as well. Are they truly stepping out from behind the scenes to stand in the open?"
Waves surged within Huang Nie Dao's heart.
In this great age, all manner of creatures had emerged.
Powers that had previously lurked beneath the surface were now beginning to show themselves.
His imperial father, the Undying Ancient Emperor, had once warned him.
Certain ancient powers hidden beneath the surface were best left unprovoked.
The Cang Clan was one of them.
This caused Huang Nie Dao's expression to stiffen, leaving him somewhat caught between advancing and retreating.
After all, he had just been so domineering moments ago, declaring he would monopolize the Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal Root.
And now, unexpectedly, beings from this clan had appeared and also wanted the Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal Root.
One could say Huang Nie Dao had shown off too soon, and now found himself in a difficult position.
"I know who you are, you are the true-born son of the Undying Ancient Emperor. Out of respect for your father, you may leave." the leading figure said.
Huang Nie Dao's expression shifted through several changes.
Setting aside whether he could fully overpower these few people.
Even if he could defeat them, he could not make a move.
The Cang Clan was far too mysterious. If he truly offended them, there would likely be no good outcome.
Even having a powerful father to back him up would be of no use.
Huang Nie Dao said nothing and began to withdraw, making his stance clear.
Evidently, compared to obtaining the Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal Root, the consequences of offending the Cang Clan were far more severe.
"Tch, wasn't it supposed to be that heavenly treasures go to the worthy? And now you've gone soft just like that. What a pathetic sight!"
Seeing Huang Nie Dao's attitude, the little divine demon ant naturally was not willing to let it go, and mocked him pointedly.
"He's nothing but a daddy's boy."
"Exactly. Without a good father, where would his status and standing come from?"
Evidently, the other immortal academy disciples also held some contempt for Huang Nie Dao.
"You have no idea whatsoever what clan they come from."
Huang Nie Dao swept a cold glance over the little divine demon ant and the others, then turned and left with a flick of his sleeve.
The remaining immortal academy disciples also began to move, preparing to withdraw.
Jun Bieli frowned faintly, a flash of dark light passing through his eyes as well.
"So it really is that clan surfacing."
Jun Bieli had also guessed the identity of these few people.
He too had thoughts of retreating.
There was no need to get into a conflict with this group right now.
But at that moment, the leading figure spoke: "Hold on. Those connected to Jun Xiaoyao, stay."
The surrounding immortal academy disciples felt a jolt in their hearts.
Could it be that these mysterious figures who had suddenly appeared also had a grudge against Jun Xiaoyao?
"What do you mean by that?"
Princess Longji's beautiful eyes turned cold and sharp.
"Nothing much. Jun Xiaoyao has done something wrong, so let's have you all atone for it first." the leading figure said.
"Insolent!" A killing intent surged in Princess Longji's beautiful eyes.
Who had the right to judge whether Jun Xiaoyao was right or wrong?
"Lord Jun is the great hero who saved the immortal domain. Are you all blind?!"
The little divine demon ant was furious as well.
Just what kind of people were these, daring to be so high and mighty, speaking such outrageous words.
"Jun Xiaoyao is only one of the reasons. There is also that woman, whom we find quite interesting. She could be taken into our clan."
Another voice spoke up, pointing toward Li Qing'er at Jun Bieli's side.
Li Qing'er's expression changed.
Jun Bieli's expression also turned cold, a rare look for him.
Li Qing'er was his reverse scale.
"You've gone too far." Jun Bieli said indifferently.
"One who has refined the Heavenly Dao Crown was born to belong to our clan."
"If she is unwilling, that is fine. Our clan has special methods to extract the Heavenly Dao Crown's power from within her body once more."
The leading figure's tone was indifferent to the point of cruelty.
Boom!
Jun Bieli made his move, striking out with a single palm, returning to simplicity and truth.
These people were truly detestable.
"Heh, did you think we would come to the Void Heaven Realm to pick the Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal Root without any preparation at all?"
Those few people laughed coldly, simultaneously driving their supreme soul force.
In an instant, a crushing pressure vast as the heavens surged forth.
A cyan grand formation materialized, boundless and mighty, as though billions of miles of mountains and rivers were all bearing down at once.
Even someone as powerful as Jun Bieli, resisting this vast formation alone, was sent staggering back repeatedly, his primordial spirit form trembling.
Within the Void Heaven Realm, after all, only the primordial spirit was present, and Jun Bieli could not fully unleash his true strength.
Li Qing'er, the divine demon ant, Princess Longji, and the others also struck out together to resist the formation.
"Futile. Where is Jun Xiaoyao? Have him come forward and answer for his crimes!"
"Who gave him the audacity to desecrate the heavens!"
These few people spoke with unbridled arrogance.
It was as though heaven ranked first and they ranked second.
Aside from the heavens above, all living beings in the world were beneath their notice.
Just as the situation was falling into crisis.
Above the cosmic vault, a colossal golden Tathagata dharma form suddenly appeared, pressing down like a primordial mountain, crashing onto the grand formation!
"Who has the right to pass judgment on this young master? Not even heaven can, let alone the likes of you!"
