Chapter 495

Upon hearing this, Xu Yan and the others couldn’t help but lament. So, the Wanxing Martial Arts Academy was once so formidable, but still couldn’t stand against the Spirit Sect and aristocratic families.

The Ling Domain, after all, belonged to the Spirit Sect and aristocratic families. They forcibly erased this part of history about the Wanxing Martial Arts Academy from the Loose Cultivators.

Wen Yong continued, “This is also as recounted by our predecessors in the All Ages Alliance. They said that after the calamity of the Blood Demon, the Wanxing Martial Arts Academy, the pride of heaven, was targeted and brought down. For a while, the Loose Cultivators in the Ling Domain went through a tragic period.

“The Spirit Sect issued an order that no one should spread or promote the Wanxing Martial Arts Academy, nor possess anything associated with it, such as symbols, etc. Once discovered, there would be no mercy.

“The informers were handsomely rewarded, and those who assisted the Spirit Sect in re-establishing order in the Ling Domain and extensively spread their slogans would be rewarded.

“Those who made great contributions could be granted entry into the Spirit Sect and become a warrior within its ranks.

“Many upright and unyielding Loose Cultivators were killed during that dark time.

“Even more tragically, countless Loose Cultivators betrayed their friends and even their own families!”

Xu Yan and others fell silent.

The circumstances of the Loose Cultivators in the Ling Domain were far worse than those in the Inner Domain.

They also understood why the warriors of the Spirit Sect looked down on those of the Inner Domain. It was all due to their arrogance and twisted mentality.

“Our All Ages Alliance adheres to the principle of breaking the established order and striving for a foothold for all Loose Cultivators worldwide. Some of the seniors in the Alliance have experienced the dark times of past years.

“Even some of our elders have witnessed the calamity of the Blood Demon!”

Wen Yong sighed with regret.

As a Loose Cultivator at the lowest level of the Ling Domain, Fang Hao understood even better the predicament of those at the bottom, and how the Spirit Sect and aristocratic families looked down on them from their high positions.

“As the leader of the Yuzhou Alliance, I will certainly lead the Yuzhou Alliance to coexist on an equal footing with the Spirit Sect and the noble families!”

Fang Hao declared solemnly.

“I, Wen Yong, will definitely assist the Alliance Hierarch with all my strength in creating a great future!”

Wen Yong said solemnly.

Then, he turned to Xu Yan with a serious expression. “Brother Xu, you should understand the impact of this competition for the Pride of Heaven. Even the once immensely powerful Wanxing martial arts academy fell apart.

“The restart of this Pride of Heaven competition is definitely not a good thing. Two fists can’t compete with the four!”

Li Xuan listened quietly the whole time. He couldn’t help but be astonished by the Spirit Sect’s strength. It was truly beyond expectations.

Even the powerful Wanxing Martial Arts Academy was crushed.

“It’s not possible that dozens of peak Refining Gods, or even existing beings beyond Refining Gods in the Transcendent Spirit Sect, will come to suppress my master, Xu Yan, right?”

Li Xuan couldn’t help but feel tense at the thought.

What Wen Yong said was good — two fists are hard to fight four hands!

But even if I’m fighting alone, with my divine martial true body, I’m not really alone.

What’s more, the power of the Great Wastelands Warriors is continuously increasing, and the second divine martial true body will not be far away.

Li Xuan evaluated his own strength and immediately calmed down.

“Don’t panic. With my four martial arts techniques combined, with my formations, the wonders of the world, and a sword array… With all of my strengths combined and setting up a deadly formation, I can kill as many Refining Gods as come at me. I’m far stronger now than the original Demon Master.

“Even if they are stronger than the Refining Gods, that doesn’t mean they can’t be beaten. Annoy me, and I’ll set up a large formation, exterminate an entire Transcendent Spirit Sect, and let the world know that I am even more ruthless than the Demon Master.”

With these thoughts, Li Xuan immediately felt as light as a feather.

I, am invincible in Ling Domain!

“If I can reach the Divine Skill Realm, I will truly have nothing to fear.”

Li Xuan muttered to himself.

I’m not sure when Xu Yan will be able to comprehend the martial arts technique of the Divine Skill Realm.

Once I enter the Divine Skill Realm, I won’t be afraid of anything.

Once the Divine Skill is released, even entities stronger than Refining Gods can easily be blasted away.

Xu Yan pondered for a moment then said seriously, “I understand Brother Wen’s concerns, but I, Xu Yan, fear no so-called Heaven’s Chosen. I will transcend all previous Heaven’s Chosen.

“I am determined to take on this battle. The saying ‘two fists can’t compete with the four’ only applies to those who are not strong enough.

“A true strong person can suppress the world alone. Four hands, eight hands, sixteen hands, they are all merely commonplace!”

As long as my master’s realm is high enough, beyond imagination, what can Refining God Heavenly Men do? No matter how many arrive, they will be just offering their lives.

“To reach the peak of martial arts, one must naturally step on the countless powerful ones to ascend to the top.”

Xu Yan thought silently to himself.

The legacy of the Crimson Ming, the divine glow corporeal form, the renowned fame… My name as Xu Yan, the sword god, is still not famous enough in the Ling Domain. Since they have taken the initiative to help raise my fame, I naturally won’t refuse.

Wen Yong looked at Xu Yan and fell into silence for a while. He was also considered among the Heaven’s Chosen in the All Ages Alliance in Yuzhou, but he realized that he lacked the confidence and pride that Xu Yan portrayed.

“If Brother Xu is confident, then let’s fight and spread our influence in the Ling Domain, and suppress the true heritage of the Spirit Sect!”

Wen Yong took a deep breath and offered his support.

“That’s the spirit! Since I, Xu Yan, dare to accept the challenge, naturally I am confident. I never do anything without being sure of success.

“It’s perfect that Brother Wen is here. Take these pills. They can assist you in cultivation.”

An smile spread across Xu Yan’s face.

He handed two bottles of pills to Wen Yong.

Wen Yong had given him the spirit jade marrow, which had helped him to break through to the Divine Intent State. Now, he was giving pills to Wen Yong to help him cultivate faster and break through to Refining God sooner.

“This…Thank you, Brother Xu.”

Wen Yong readily accepted the pills.

After catching up, Wen Yong and Yu Gao bid their farewells and departed. Their mission was to monitor the movements of the Jade God Sect and Lu Xinting.
