Chapter 418: Suppressing Shambhala (2)

"Is it really Wu Yuan?"

"It's him!"

"Indeed, in the entire Middle Land, he might be the only one with such astonishing talent."

"At just fifty, he’s already at the ninth-stage Spiritual Body phase, and it seems he has a fourth-degree immortal root." Hushed discussions broke out among the Golden Core elders of the Huoyan Sect, their voices filled with shock, jealousy, and even murderous intent.

Many of them had cultivated for hundreds of years, yet only reached the third-stage Golden Core phase.

"He actually knows about our Huoyan Sect? He seems to know quite a bit."

"This Wu Yuan, is he waiting here on purpose? Could he have known in advance that the Huoyan Sect was coming to kill him?" More cultivators from the Huoyan Sect grew wary.

He knew they were coming, yet dared to wait for them here. He was either foolish or relying on something.

However, how could someone who rose to power from an indigenous civilization and made advance preparations to propagate his Faith be a fool?

"Daoist Wu Yuan, since you know about the Summerpeak mainland, you should also know about the Bloodforge Devil Hall." The enormous fiery beast spoke again.

"We are here on the orders of the Bloodforge Devil Hall to invite you to join the Devil Hall. Please return with us to the Summerpeak mainland, where an Amethyst Cradle Reverend from the Devil Hall will meet you." Ying Quan spoke without hesitation.

He didn't know what gave Wu Yuan his confidence, but that didn't stop him from trying a different approach. If he could trick Wu Yuan into entering the sect, killing him would be easy.

"Under the orders of the Bloodforge Devil Hall?" Wu Yuan smiled lightly. Standing high in the sky, he casually taunted, "Aren't you here to kill me under Reverend Huo Yan’s orders?"

Silence fell.

The Golden Core cultivators from the Huoyan Sect were stunned. How did this Wu Yuan know everything?

In an instant, a multitude of thoughts filled their minds. Was there a traitor among the Golden Core elders?

But how could that be possible? Wu Yuan was only fifty years old, while most of these Golden Core elders had been cultivating in the sect for hundreds of years.

Furthermore, the forbidden regions had just disappeared. How could he have planted a traitor?

It wasn’t just the Huoyan Sect. Even the immortal cultivators from the Middle Land Immortal Hall were dumbstruck. In their eyes, their ruler was growing increasingly unfathomable.

"Furthermore." Wu Yuan suddenly spoke again, "Those subordinates of mine who were scouting beyond Huang Island, were they killed by Elder Mo Lu of your Huoyan Sect?"

By now, the minds of the Huoyan Sect’s cultivators were in complete chaos. With this, how could he possibly be bluffing?

The fiery beast fell silent. The only sounds were the howling of the gale through the sky and the surging waves.

"Wu Yuan," the fiery beast finally spoke once more. "Since you know all this, then you understand my Huoyan Sect's determination. As a sign of respect for your talent, I will give you a chance to kill yourself!" for new novels

"My Huoyan Sect promises that we shall not harm the mortals of Middle Land, nor your mortal family."

"Otherwise, when the great war begins, the Middle Land will be destroyed." The fiery beast's voice was icy cold, no longer concealing his true intentions.

They wanted him to commit suicide? Using his mortal family to threaten him?

A chill flashed in the depths of Wu Yuan's eyes, a surge of anger burning in his heart. It had been a long time since he had felt such rage.

At this moment, Wu Yuan realized that Daoist Long's words were true. The Huoyan Sect was really after his life.

"You want my life?" Wu Yuan's eyes grew colder. His principles had never changed: kindness or enmity was repaid tenfold!

All of you can go to hell!

"Little Black, Beast Fusion!" Wu Yuan commanded through spiritual transmission.

"Yes, Master, let's kill them all," Little Black could hardly contain its murderous intent.

Teng Snakes were bloodthirsty and savage by nature. Thus, only the Eldritch Progenitor could subdue the first of the Teng Snakes.

Boom! Wu Yuan, who had been wearing a smile, suddenly erupted with power. His body, which was shorter than two meters tall, grew rapidly.

Boom! In a head-on clash, Wu Yuan's slightly smaller frame didn't budge an inch. But the flame beast was sent flying backward, crashing heavily into the water. The splash generated towering waves, and the ground trembled faintly.

Numerous cracks appeared on the surface of the fiery beast's body.

"What?"

"Good heavens." From the nearby battleship, hundreds of Qi Sea cultivators were standing agog, staring in disbelief at the unfolding scene.

Dozens of Golden Core elders of the sect working together were blasted away in the very first exchange?

In the sky ten thousand li away.

This? Well done, Wu Yuan! Well done! Daoist Long was equally shocked, staring at the scene.

The distance was too large and he couldn’t hear what was going on, but he saw everything clearly.

In a head-on confrontation, Wu Yuan took the absolute upper hand.

Even I may not be able to accomplish this. Daoist Long was both shocked and wary. He finally understood why Wu Yuan was so audacious.

Strength! It was because of his formidable strength that Wu Yuan could act so recklessly.

...

At this moment, within the Middle Land Immortal Hall, Fang Xia, Arctic, Mountain Devil, and the other Middle Land immortal cultivators were staring at the light screen in shock.

Wu Yijun was equally stunned. Her brother's strength had reached such a terrifying level?

...

After laying low for decades, Wu Yuan’s outburst could only be described as earth-shattering, leaving all the spectators in astonishment.

For the Middle Land, it felt like their ruler was even stronger now, stronger beyond comprehension.

As for the Huoyan Sect, they were terrified.

The fiery beast emerged from the sea, its gigantic eyes were fixated on Wu Yuan, filled with disbelief.

Only through a head-on confrontation could they understand Wu Yuan’s true strength. In just fifty years, he managed to obtain such terrifying strength? Given more time, how strong would he become?

Whoosh! The fiery beast staggered back abruptly. In its palm was a colossal divine bow that towered hundreds of zhangs high.

The bow had no strings, its body ablaze with unending flames.

The fiery beast held the bow with three hands, its other arm mimicking the position of a bowstring. Instantly, the boundless spiritual qi from heaven and earth surged.

A crystal-clear, translucent arrow of flame materialized, ethereal yet so real, pointing straight at Wu Yuan.

This? Wu Yuan's pupils contracted slightly.

Warning bells went off in Wu Yuan’s mind, as though he was a mortal being watched by a savage beast.

“This?” The spectators in the Middle Land Immortal Hall instinctively tensed up.

"Heavenly Flame Bow! It's finally out," Daoist Long, thousands of li away, stared at the gigantic divine bow.

He was well aware of the bow's power. It was the guardian treasure of the Huoyan Sect.

The Divine Flame Array, coupled with the Heavenly Flame Bow, was the reason for the Huoyan Sect's unshakeable standing on the Summerpeak mainland. Even without Reverend Huo Yan’s presence, the Huoyan Sect maintained its formidable influence.

"Kill!" Wu Yuan moved, his wings flapping. In an instant, several illusions formed, charging straight towards the fiery beast.

"Go!" The fiery beast held the bow, notched the arrow, and let it fly, all in one seamless motion.

Whoosh! A dazzling arrow of fire tore through the sky in an instant, its terrifying trail appearing to rip heaven and earth in half.

Ignoring the illusory shadows, it struck Wu Yuan!
