Chapter 607: Chapter 607: Sweating Profusely
Mahayana Realm!
Below the Immortals, the last grand Kingdom of cultivator monks!
It is also the most powerful Kingdom!
Before Yang Tian stepped into the Cultivation Kingdom, Li Yicai, once hailed as the strongest wielder of the Galaxy Sword, resembled a looter in the later stage. Even in the history of cultivation, very few have reached the Mahayana Era.
Though the Monster World and the Cultivation World differ, their circumstances are similar.
It can be said that, since the beast Luo Quan, we haven’t witnessed a Mahayana monk!
Who could have imagined that today, standing before them, there was a Great Mahayana Warrior, making their faces instantly pale!
"Mahayana Realm?"
Evidently, the woman also heard Luo Quan’s words, and she was utterly stunned, her body drenched in sweat.
A Kingdom, a piece of the sky!
Between each grand realm, the difference is akin to the gulf between heaven and earth!
To the power brokers of those chaotic times, all others were mere ants.
Yet, facing the great Mahayana Yang Tian, they immediately felt themselves shrink into ants!
Seeing these two finally quiet down, Di Hai was relieved.
Indeed, his position was rather awkward!
By relationships, he now belonged to Yang Tian. Luo Quan and his wife daring to disrespect Yang Tian meant their deaths were natural and justified.
On the other hand, Luo Quan was one of the last surviving beasts of the Monster World. Luo Quan naturally wouldn’t want them to perish like this!
At this moment, fear surged, as they sensed the overpowering aura of Yang Tian’s Mahayana Era cultivation. Naturally, this outcome was the best!
Thus, Di Hai hurried forward and said, "Elder Luo, I truly haven’t betrayed the Devil World! Years ago, when the Ghost World was destroyed by the Three Sages of the Cultivation Kingdom, I had no choice but to flee to the Cultivation Kingdom for shelter!"
"Cultivation Kingdom? You went to the Cultivation Kingdom?"
Luo Quan immediately asked in surprise, "Then you truly became a cultivator..."
"To survive in the realm of truth, I..." I abolished my previous magic practices!" Di Hai sighed.
"Abandoned your original magic practices?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Quan and the woman both gasped in disbelief, staring at Di Hai.
No one knew how long passed before Luo Quan exclaimed, "No wonder!" So that’s why. You You Dihai, a disciple of the Ghost Master, such a monstrous talent... But now, after all these years, you possess a far stronger Kingdom than before, yet your aura is much weaker than it used to be. You’re no longer as arrogant as you once were. So, it turns out... because you gave up your skills and started anew!"
Re-cultivation?
The woman on the side heard this and couldn’t help but glance again at Di Hai, wondering about the extent of his talent.
To abolish and rebuild, yet still reach the peak stage of robber-like power!
But in the woman’s eyes, Di Hai now lacked the slight sense of arrogance he once had!
Perhaps he was indeed extraordinary, but who stood before him now?
Yang Tian!
An absolute malevolence, darker than anyone else!
Compared to Yang Tian, everyone seemed dimmed and insignificant.
Upon confirming that Di Hai truly hadn’t betrayed the Ghost World, combined with the awe of Yang Tian’s Mahayana aura, Luo Quan soon abandoned resistance and led Yang Tian and company into the depths of the swamp, to meet the remaining survivors of the Ghost World.
Along the way, Yang Tian also gained insight into the current cultivation status of the ghosts!
The Monster World was originally founded on the boundless Yin-Yang principle. The sect was led by its Sect Master and supported by the Shadow Sect, Banshee Sect, Blood Essence Sect, and Frenzy Kill Sect — these four major families served as its branches.
However, when the Three Sages took the Devil Kingdom, Yin Yang Five Elements Sect lost much of its power. All the sect masters fell. Among the four emperors, one emperor was destroyed while the Frenzy Killing Emperor was left crippled, the Devil Emperor grievously injured. The Shadow Emperor, along with Luo Quan and his disciples, including the woman named Lu Xiaofei, stayed together.
Thus, the surviving cultivators are now under the control of the Blood Refiners.
Since the Three Sects and Three Sages always aimed to exterminate them, they could only hide temporarily in the depths of the swamp, where Yin Yang originally thrived.
Today marked the day of Luo Quan’s meeting with Luo Quan, who was in charge of supplies.
When Di Hai heard Luo Quan’s account, he couldn’t help but ask, "Elder Luo Quan, among the Yin Yang Emperor’s remnants, who is still alive?"
"Who else? Your Uncle Gu Changfeng is still alive!" Luo Quan immediately responded.
"Gu... Uncle Gu is still alive?"
Di Hai laughed out loud upon hearing this.
On the other side, Su Youu curiously asked, "Master, who is this Uncle Gu? Is he one of the elders of the Yin Yang Five Elements Sect?"
"Not just an elder!"
Di Hai explained with a smile, "Your Uncle Gu Shizu is a senior figure among our ancestors, second only to my master. That is to say, your master and our ancestor rank beneath him, and he isn’t under the Demon Masters’ influence! I truly didn’t expect him to still be alive!!"
Saying this, Di Hai immediately turned to Elder Luo Quan with eagerness and asked, "Elder Luo Quan, where would Uncle Gu be taking us now? How is he doing?"
"What do you mean?"
Luo Quan’s eyes flashed with a peculiar light, but he said nothing. He merely sighed, "If you go see him, you’ll understand; no need to inquire further!"
As he said this, Luo Quan seemed to recall something. He suddenly turned silent, walking ahead quietly.
When Di Hai noticed this, his heart grew suspicious.
Yang Tian, on the other hand, merely furrowed his brows thoughtfully without saying a word.
Under Luo Quan’s lead, after about half a stick of incense’s time and passing through dozens of varying-sized arrays, they finally arrived at the entrance of a cave.
Di Hai gazed at the cavern that had just emerged from its veil of mystery and sighed, "So, the Devil Kingdom’s remnants are here now?"
"Indeed! Hiding below is easier!"
Luo Quan seemed helpless as he sighed, though he soon glanced nervously at Yang Tian and stammered, "Master... Heaven... Heaven’s direction..."
"Lead the way!"
Yang Tian replied indifferently.
Hearing this, Luo Quan exhaled and took the lead to descend.
After all, with Yang Tian — such a Mahayana-level cultivator — following behind, Luo Quan’s heart remained in turmoil!
Under Luo Quan’s guidance, Yang Tian and his party smoothly descended.
Beneath the cavern’s dark and narrow tunnels emerged a vast land, resembling an underground palace.
Yet Yang Tian remained unimpressed.
After all, using Monster power to create such a palace underground was not a great feat.
As they stepped onto the open hall, they were suddenly stopped.
Two men appeared, clad in robes as red as blood. Though their powers were scattered and weak, they showed zero respect toward Luo Quan, instead sneering at him without hesitation. One of them coldly chuckled, "Elder Luo, back so soon today? So many people — did you bring new sacrificial offerings?"
Sacrifices?
Luo Quan’s face darkened at those words. As for the woman, Lu Xiaofei trembled slightly.
The idea of sacrificial rituals seemed utterly dreadful.
The two men dressed in crimson robes, who had blocked Luo Quan, clearly enjoyed themselves. They took great pleasure in mocking Luo Quan, the towering figure, with cheerful faces: "Haha, don’t be so tense! Anyhow, for now, the Monarch still holds a stockpile. He wouldn’t conduct any sacrifices unless those ran low!"
As they said this, the two men glanced at Yang Tian’s face, their expressions filled with unusual mockery, before turning to leave.
Watching the strange exchange between these two and Luo Quan, Di Hai was about to speak.
But Luo Quan hurriedly grabbed him, his face changed, pulling him aside to move away.
