Chapter 3439: Frustrated Again
Two palms facing each other.
Space was obliterated.
A deafening roar erupted, and terrifying shockwaves spread outwards from the two individuals.
Wherever the impact was felt, ancient stars were annihilated. Even many cultivators who were secretly watching the battle paled and hurriedly retreated, fearing that they would be affected by such power.
However, some cultivators were still unable to dodge in time and were hit by the aftershocks. Their bodies exploded instantly, and they died on the spot without even letting out a scream.
Some powerful Immortal Emperors were lucky enough to escape with their lives, but they were all in a sorry state.
this moment.
They looked at the two figures in the chaotic void, their faces filled with horror.
In the void.
Shen Changqing's body trembled, and then he stepped back, his right hand skin cracked, and immortal blood dripped down.
Just one hit.
He has already been injured.
no way.
Facing an ancient, half-saint who had attained enlightenment through five tribulations, the cultivation level of a peak Immortal Emperor was ultimately far too inferior.
Even if Shen Changqing's foundation is deep enough to rival ordinary immortals, it would still be difficult for him to compete with a powerhouse of this level.
"Among the Immortal Emperors, to be able to withstand a single palm strike from me and survive, your strength is indeed worthy of being the number one among Immortal Emperors!"
Jiang Linyuan gave a fair assessment, and his gaze toward Shen Changqing held a hint of appreciation, but it was soon overwhelmed by a chilling killing intent.
The stronger Shen Changqing's foundation, the less he can afford to let his opponent live.
otherwise.
It will surely become a great calamity in the future.
at this point.
Jiang Linyuan understood.
Now, there is not much time left until the next great calamity. When the great calamity arrives, breaking through to the semi-saint realm will be an easy thing for him.
To be honest, even Jiang Linyuan had a hard time estimating how terrifying such a prodigy would become if he could advance to the level of a half-saint.
But there is one thing.
Jiang Linyuan, however, was certain.
That means giving the other party some time, and knowing that you could never be their match.
If you don't break off relations with this kind of person, then you should do your best to befriend them. But if you do break off relations, then you must nip it in the bud and never give them any chance.
"Unfortunately, an Immortal Emperor is still an Immortal Emperor; you were destined to perish in this battle!"
Jiang Linyuan made another move, but Shen Changqing had no intention of continuing to confront him head-on. Instead, he summoned the withered branch, and his immortal power surged forth like a river bursting its banks.
"boom--"
A terrifying aura erupted from the withered branches, and a phantom of a celestial tree reaching to the heavens emerged from the Great Dao River, capable of suppressing countless ages.
Subsequently.
Shen Changqing made a move.
The withered branch fell towards Jiang Linyuan.
The latter's pupils widened suddenly, and the confident look on his face vanished, replaced by horror in his eyes.
"not good--"
Jiang Linyuan directly summoned a celestial sword, unleashing terrifying sword power. The sword energy transformed into a long river that pierced the sky, slashing fiercely towards Shen Changqing.
this moment.
Jiang Linyuan no longer held any contempt in his heart.
The withered branch fell, and the power of the Nine Tribulations Half-Saint was like a destructive force. The so-called long river of sword energy could not even withstand a single breath before being directly cut in two.
With such unstoppable force descending, Jiang Linyuan was greatly alarmed and could only defend himself with the immortal sword in his hand.
"Buzz!"
The immortal sword trembled and let out a mournful cry. At the same time, an unparalleled force overwhelmed him, causing the tiger's mouth of his arm holding the sword hilt to crack and drop a large amount of immortal blood, which obliterated countless layers of void.
not only that.
That power caused Jiang Linyuan's body to tremble violently, as if his immortal bones had been severely injured. He then retreated backward, and blood appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"The remnant body of a Nine Tribulations Half-Saint!"
"You still possess such a treasure—"
Jiang Linyuan's face showed shock. He had thought that the destruction of that Nine Tribulations Half-Saint treasure meant that the other party had few more trump cards left.
did not expect.
This time, he even brought out the remains of a Ninth Tribulation Half-Saint.
A demigod of the ninth tribulation!
This level of existence is only one step away from becoming a saint.
Even if the opponent perishes, they are still not to be underestimated.
Such as these.
When Jiang Linyuan saw Shen Changqing take out such a treasure, he understood that he had no chance of winning this battle.
But he felt unwilling to leave so decisively.
Shen Changqing said calmly, "If Sect Leader Jiang wants to fight, then I will naturally accompany you. If you don't want to fight, then please go back, Sect Leader Jiang!"
Furthermore, let me tell your cult leader, I have no intention of being his enemy, but if it really comes to war, I am not without my own methods!
As soon as these words came out.
Jiang Linyuan's expression changed rapidly.
He gave Shen Changqing a deep look, which could be considered a way out.
"Such arrogance! Since you insist on seeking death, then I will convey these words myself."
But when that time comes, I hope you won't regret it!
After leaving those words behind, Jiang Linyuan turned and left.
joke.
Take out the remains of the Nine Tribulations Half-Saint.
Such a treasure is absolutely beyond my ability to contend with.
Since Shen Changqing had made such a harsh statement, Jiang Linyuan didn't mind taking the news back with him.
but.
The next time they come, it will inevitably be the end of the Xuantian Dao Sect.
Seeing Jiang Linyuan leave, Shen Changqing did not stop him, and his figure disappeared afterward.
When the other cultivators who were secretly watching the battle saw this scene, they all breathed a sigh of relief for some reason, while at the same time feeling a little regretful.
It's a rare opportunity to witness a clash between demigods, but to end it so abruptly is undoubtedly a missed chance.
After all, if one could witness such beings fighting, one might be able to learn something from it.
but.
It's pointless to say anything now.
But compared to the opportunity not to actually witness the battle of the demigods, they were even more shocked by Shen Changqing's strength.
"It seems the rumors are true. This new sect leader of the Xuantian Dao Sect is indeed the same person as the Heavenly Demon Saint Lord Shen Hong!"
"To contend with a demigod without being at a disadvantage, he can certainly be considered the number one Immortal Emperor—"
Many powerful people were deeply shaken.
Don't be fooled by the fact that Shen Changqing defeated Jiang Linyuan; it was because he used a supreme treasure.
However, the opponent had already exchanged a blow with Jiang Linyuan.
That move.
There is absolutely no water added.
To know.
Jiang Linyuan is not only an ancient half-saint, but also a being who has reached the fifth tribulation level. If he strikes with anger, let alone an immortal emperor, even an ordinary half-saint would probably be killed.
Shen Changqing's ability to withstand Jiang Linyuan's palm strike with his own strength is enough to solidify Jiang Linyuan's status as the number one Immortal Emperor.
If it were any other Immortal Emperor in front of them, even one of the top ten experts on the Immortal Emperor Stele, they would probably perish on the spot in a single encounter.
Especially when Jiang Linyuan said those words, it further confirmed this point.
……
Xuantian Dao Sect.
When Shen Changqing returned here, all the cultivators showed expressions of awe.
The Battle of Chaos.
Although not everyone can see it clearly.
But for many cultivators, catching a glimpse of the truth is by no means a problem.
Seeing Shen Changqing personally take action and force back the ancient half-saint, they were naturally filled with awe.
"I am deeply grateful that you have come to witness the grand ceremony of the Xuantian Dao Sect, but the Xuantian Dao Sect has other matters to attend to at the moment, so I will not continue to entertain you."
I hope you can all understand what happened here!
"Sect Leader Shen, you're too kind!"
"We are already satisfied to have witnessed Sect Leader Shen's charisma today!"
Upon hearing this, many cultivators fawned over him, offered their compliments, and then took their leave.
Not long after.
The once bustling Xuantian Dao Sect has become much quieter.
Shen Changqing returned the withered branch to Ye Yun.
"This is a good item. Keep it safe; it will be of great benefit to you in the future."
"Disciple understands!"
Ye Yun took a deep breath, his expression becoming extremely solemn.
He had witnessed the entire Chaos War.
Shen Changqing used this withered power to injure an ancient half-saint, causing the opponent to back down. This was partly due to the opponent's formidable strength, but it did not change the fact that the withered branch was incredibly powerful.
Compared to when it was in Shen Changqing's hands, this withered branch in his hands was barely enough to suppress even an Immortal Emperor.
Ye Yun understood.
With his current strength, he is far from being able to unleash the full power of this treasure.
Otherwise, given the power of this item, Ye Yun would be confident in suppressing even a half-saint in person.
the other side.
Many cultivators who saw this couldn't hide their envy.
They had all witnessed the power of this treasure, so it was impossible for them not to be tempted.
but.
They were merely attracted to each other.
As for the idea of snatching it, he had absolutely no intention of doing so.
Not to mention that the other party has the entire Dan Peak and that sect master standing behind him, Ye Yun's own strength is also formidable, enough to rival an Immortal Emperor.
Such strength makes other cultivators hesitate to challenge it.
Seize the opportunity.
There's no way to explain that.
……
Main peak.
The celestial palace.
This is where the original sect leader lived.
Now that Yang Daoxu has abdicated, Shen Changqing naturally moved in here.
As for Danfeng, given his current status, it is no longer appropriate for him to continue living there.
The reason.
This is because the position of sect leader is to govern the nine peaks and develop the sect, rather than to favor a particular peak or branch.
If this were to happen, it would lead to an imbalance among the nine peaks, resulting in one peak becoming dominant while the other eight become weak.
and so.
Each time a peak master of the Nine Peaks succeeds as sect leader, they detach themselves from their original status as one of the Nine Peaks. Even if they receive some preferential treatment in terms of resources due to past relationships, it won't be too much.
Now that Shen Changqing is the sect leader, he should do the same.
Of course.
Given Danfeng's current resources and strength.
Even if Shen Changqing didn't deliberately tilt, he could still maintain his position as the number one among the nine peaks, that much is undeniable.
Any one of Gu Qingyang and the others could support a peak.
Now that all of them have gathered at one peak, the strength of that peak is naturally unimaginable.
While a sect leader cannot allocate too many resources to a particular peak, they also will not deliberately suppress a peak simply because it is powerful.
in contrast.
If one peak can grow stronger independently without sacrificing the resources of the other peaks, it is a good thing for the entire sect.
Looking at the scene inside the palace, Shen Changqing had a thought, and then he saw the void change. In a short while, everything became completely different.
