Chapter 395: Chapter 342: Ying Tian Sheng of the Demonic Cult

Translator: 549690339

Just as Pei Xuanjing and his companions stepped into the vicinity of the Palace of Myriad Images, they were detected by a sharp aura.

“Pei Min, taste death!”

A fierce murderous intent, almost materializing, was directed to kill Pei Xuanjing.

With an unchanged look on his face, Pei Xuanjing muttered lightly, “Leader of the Demonic Cult, Ying Tian Sheng!”

The Palace of Myriad Images is the dwelling of the Empress Dowager.

This world is named the World of Myriad Manifestations and the Empress Dowager’s palace is named The Palace of Myriad Images. Just from this name alone, one can infer the ambitions of the Empress Dowager.

There are even rumours that the Empress Dowager once intended to build a Divine Palace of Myriad Images, but it was stopped by the late Emperor, who deemed it too taxing on the people and the national treasury!

The decoration in the Palace of Myriad Images is stunningly grand, noble, and elegant. Every single piece of decoration in the palace is extraordinary, making even treasures considered precious by countless people seem common within the palace.

At that time, since the Empress Dowager was in seclusion, the inner palace of the Palace of Myriad Images was closed. Other than a few confidants, no one was allowed to approach without permission.

Even the various experts from the Brahman Gate and the Demonic Cult, who were invited to protect the Empress Dowager, were only guarding in the palaces near the Palace of Myriad Images.

Although the Brahman Gate and the Demonic Cult worked together because of the Empress Dowager, there existed deep grudges between them and their enmity was no small matter. Saying they were as bitter as the sea was not an exaggeration.

Each of them occupied a palace adjacent to the Palace of Myriad Images, and a Half-Step Heavenly Being sat in person to guard the Empress Dowager in her seclusion.

The reason why the two Half-Step Heavenly Beings were stationed here was because the Empress Dowager’s cultivation had reached a critical point. If all went well, she could break the last restriction, and the Celestial Barrier would no longer be a problem.

Therefore, in addition to protecting the dharma, the two Half-Step Heavenly Beings also wanted to learn from the experience of the Empress Dowager’s breakthrough for their own benefit.

At that time, the moon in the sky was bright and the stars were twinkling. However, if one looked closely, an invisible aura from within the Palace of Myriad Images where the Empress Dowager was, soared up into the sky, filling the heavens and tinging the twinkling stars, forming a rhythmic movement.

Many experts from the Brahman Gate and the Demonic Cult who were guarding here seized the opportunity to release their aura, interacted with Heaven and Earth, and observed the changes in the stars’ positions to understand the principles.

However, at this moment, Ying Tian Sheng, the leader of the Demonic Cult, who was originally immersed in comprehending the path of the Empress Dowager’s cultivation, suddenly opened his eyes, and a trace of murderous intent appeared in his eyes.

“Pei Min, taste death!”

Boom!

The aura of Ying Tian Sheng, the leader of the Demonic Cult, burst out enormously, heading towards Pei Xuanjing who was about to reach the Palace of Myriad Images.

This chilling, fierce killing intent almost materialized, the rolling waves sweeping in all directions. Apart from the Palace of Myriad Images, where the Empress Dowager was in seclusion and was unaffected, the faces of everyone in the palaces within several miles changed, and those with insufficient strength were so oppressed by this sudden murderous intent that they couldn’t even lift their heads.

In the grand hall where the Brahman Gate was located, a Brahman Gate expert who was also immersed in the peculiarities of the Empress Dowager’s cultivation was equally taken aback.

“Amitabha!”

With a Buddha’s name, a light golden aura emerged from Master Zhiyuan, scattering the chilling killing intent of Ying Tian Sheng, the leader of the Demonic Cult, making it illusionary.

Master Zhiyuan sighed softly, “Junior brother, it seems that tonight will not be peaceful.”

“Humph, a minor skill!”

Facing the killing intent from Ying Tian Sheng, Pei Xuanjing coldly snorted. With a flick of his sleeve, he easily dismissed it.

Yin Daoist laughed bitterly, “I didn’t expect this Demonic Cult’s leader to be so powerful.”

The three of them had come concealed in stealth, but were easily discovered. This showed that the strength of the Demonic Cult’s leader was by no means inferior to their own.

Ye Daoyuan was unfazed, “If it was that easy, there would be no need for the three of us to join forces.”

Pei Xuanjing spoke, “According to the original plan, you two hold them off, and I’ll deal with the Empress Dowager. How about it?”

“Alright!” Ye Daoyuan and Yin Daoist nodded simultaneously, “Take care, Taoist friend.”

Pei Xuanjing smiled, nodded, and strode directly towards the Palace of Myriad Images.

At this moment, Pei Xuanjing made no attempt to conceal his aura. With such a move, anyone who wasn’t a fool could understand his purpose.

“Stop him!”

“You Villain, How dare you!”

The leader of the Demonic Cult, Ying Tian Sheng, wasn’t irked when his probing attack was easily shattered by Pei Xuanjing. However, seeing Pei Xuanjing now head towards the Palace of Myriad Images as if no one were around, he was immediately engulfed in rage.

“Pei Min, are you acting as if I’m not present!”

With that said, he slammed down a palm, and an overwhelming primordial Qi poured out like a gushing river.

Originally, Ying Tian Sheng didn’t have much discontent towards Pei Min, a rising star. After all, there was no conflict of interest between the two sides, and they didn’t even know each other.

But to his surprise, Pei Min sided with the Emperor immediately after a decade-long seclusion, becoming a major stumbling block to the revival of the Demonic Cult. This angered Ying Tian Sheng.

What made him full of hatred towards Pei Min was his action in Wannian County, where he swept a Demonic Cult stronghold with thunderous momentum, causing all the Heavenly Rank experts of the Demonic Cult in that stronghold to die, with no survivors.

Pei Min’s move this time caused heavy losses to the Demonic Cult. Understandably, the Heavenly Rank experts were the pillars of a force. Such a loss was unacceptable to a force as large as the Demonic Cult.

Therefore, the moment he sensed the appearance of his opponent, he made a decisive move. Although it was only a probe, it indeed was an invitation to battle.

However, the other party ignored him, headed to the Palace of Myriad Images, with an obvious purpose, this made the already irritated Ying Tian Sheng burn with anger.

“Hehe.” Pei Xuanjing was completely unconcerned about Ying Tian Sheng’s move and seemed as if he hadn’t heard him at all.

Boom!

A talisman appeared out of thin air, colliding head-on with Ying Tian Sheng’s palm strike, making a ground-shaking sound, and the endless energy swept around like waves.

The figure of Ye Daoyuan stood in front of Ying Tian Sheng, blocking his path, and laughed, “I’ve heard much about Ying Taoist friend’s powerful abilities. Please don’t hesitate to enlighten me.”

A trace of cold light flashed in Ying Tian Sheng’s eyes. He knew that since Ye Daoyuan had made a move, it was absolutely impossible for him to pass by and give Pei Min a hard time.

He said in a deep voice, “Ye Daoyuan, you are known as the number one person in the world, but I don’t buy it. Today, let me see what you are capable of.”

His hands moved lightly, and countless Heaven and Earth Essence Qi gathered, and the rolling Qi swept around him. The wind was howling, and the temperature dropped suddenly, giving off a sinister and eerie aura.

Boom!

Ying Tian Sheng swiped several palms, and the flying blood shadows in the air enveloped Ye Daoyuan.

“Very well, today let me, Daoyuan, see the unique skills of the Demonic Cult.” Ye Daoyuan drew talismans in the air with both hands, and the talismans revolved around him, emitting a profound and obscure aura.

Light radiated from the talismans attached to his hands. He struck one strike after another, the continued attacks were like an endless tidal wave.
