Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 502: Chapter 499: Accumulating the Strong

After Su Han finished speaking, the huge light barrier disappeared, and so did Su Han’s icy demeanor.

”Damn it, this bastard!”

Gu Yunlei was furious at this point, ”What does he think he is? How dare he threaten me like that? Just a Sect Master from an Eighth-Rate Sect? In the eyes of those Eighth-Rate Sects, let alone the Sect Master, even the Supreme Elders must respectfully and humbly submit to me. This bastard not only snatched the woman I had my eyes on but also dared to threaten me?”

From childhood to this day, it was the first time that Gu Yunlei had received such a threat, and naturally, he couldn’t accept it.

With the backing of Ruyi Sect and his father, in this world, all sects below Sixth-Rate must obey him. He had visited no fewer than ten sects, where from the Outer Sect Disciples to the Sect Leaders, no one dared to provoke him. Whatever he said was the rule, as if they were serving a great deity.

That vanity and pride had been deeply etched in his heart, so now, hearing the words from Su Han, he truly couldn’t accept it.

”And you two!”

Gu Yunlei then turned his gaze to the two elders, grinding his teeth, ”What are you even here for? What are all those resources my father provides you for? How could you treat me like this? There was a chance to capture him, but all you did was dither and worry about this and that. I’m not concerned—what are you concerned about?!” ℴℴ𝘮

”When we return to the sect, I will definitely report this matter to my father. You two will see!”

”Hmph, back to the sect!”

Upon finishing his words, Gu Yunlei viciously squeezed Han Mei in his embrace and turned to leave.

Han Mei’s chest pained from the squeeze, her face turned pale, and she cursed Gu Yunlei countless times in her heart, yet she dared not show it on her face.

The two elders, however, had somewhat gloomy expressions.

They knew that the Sect Master was very aware of his son’s nature—how spoiled and arrogant he was. As a father, the Sect Master knew best.

Even if the Sect Master came to know of this incident, he would not punish them. Except for the Sect Master, they were the two most powerful in the entire Ruyi Sect, along with the last one stationed at the sect in the peak of Dragon God Realm, the heavens of Ruyi Sect. The Sect Master would not have reached where he was without being intelligent.

When the two looked at each other, they both sighed inwardly.

What they knew was that, with Gu Yunlei’s character, he would sooner or later bring disaster upon the Ruyi Sect.

What they did not know was that the disaster had already begun.

...

Meanwhile, within the Phoenix Sect.

Su Han moved his hand, and the blood mist in front of him continued to dissipate, eventually curling back and reintegrating into the Lifeblood Crystal, disappearing from sight.

”In another two hours, I will be able to bring Shangguan Mingxin back,” murmured Su Han.

This Blood Sacrifice Technique wasn’t anything particularly clever, and Su Han had grasped it in his previous life.

If Su Han’s cultivation base had already reached the Dragon God Realm, even if just at the early stage, he could have controlled Shangguan Mingxin’s body through the blood traces and directly slain the two elders, as well as Han Mei and Gu Yunlei.

But at this moment, all he could do was teleport Shangguan Mingxin back.

Time passed, and two hours went by.

On the square of the Phoenix Sect, a vortex suddenly appeared. The Nine Clouds Immortal Illusion Formation activated on its own, allowing the vortex to enter the Sect Residence, and a figure fell from within.

It was Shangguan Mingxin!

At this moment, she was still in a coma, her pretty face deathly pale, her eyes tightly closed, her breath seemingly on the verge of scattering.

Su Han’s brows lightly furrowed as he flashed forward and caught Shangguan Mingxin.

After a brief examination, Su Han let out a sigh of relief.

”It hasn’t harmed the foundation; it won’t affect cultivation.”

If the foundation had truly been damaged, even Su Han would have found it difficult to claim he could repair it, given that he had been reborn, and was not the Sovereign of the Holy Domain from his previous life.

After making Shangguan Mingxin swallow a few pills, Su Han brought her into the Xumi Ring of the Holy Son.

In the past three months, everyone from the Phoenix Sect, Su Han included, had been cultivating inside the Xumi Ring of the Holy Son.

When entering it, Su Han often heard a series of muffled booms and felt the constant emergence of powerful breaths—this was clearly the Phoenix Sect disciples making rapid breakthroughs.

The three hundred and forty million spirit stones brought back from the Qilin Daoist Temple managed to alleviate the urgent need of the Phoenix Sect.

Of these spirit stones, Su Han had given a whole one hundred million to one person, and this person was Shen Li, currently the strongest in the Phoenix Sect!

Shen Li’s cultivation, making its way towards mastery of the Space Law, carried a breath that was almost imperceptible, having already reached the Dragon God Realm Peak. Had it not been for the lack of spirit stones, he might have reached the Dragon Emperor Realm by now.

”This is what a purple talent looks like...”

Even Su Han couldn’t help but feel a bit of jealousy and admiration for Shen Li’s terrifying pace of cultivation.

He did hold many memories and techniques, true, and his experience and mastery of realms were also genuine, but that didn’t mean his aptitude was as exceptional as these memories, techniques, experiences, and realms.

In his last life, Su Han’s aptitude wasn’t particularly great. He had reached the position of Sovereign of the Holy Domain through sheer perseverance.

And his body in this life, still without any special physique or freakishly high aptitude, even his magic physique had been personally transformed by him.

The one thing Su Han could be thankful for was his starting point, much higher than others because he had... lived for almost one hundred million years!

And during that hundred million years, he wasn’t just any nameless soldier, but the once Lord of the Holy Domain, the strongest in the Milky Way starry sky!

Within just a few short years, Shen Li had gone from an ordinary person to the Dragon God Realm Peak and was even on the brink of breaking through to the Dragon Emperor Realm, something absolutely nobody on the Dragon Martial Continent could achieve.

So much so, if this were spoken aloud, no one would believe it.

To Su Han, this represented the accumulation of decades of Shen Li’s innate talent, which exploded in full force at the moment of cultivation, making his rate of advancement indescribable.

And he was also, to date, the strongest person in the Phoenix Sect.

Ultimately, the outcome of a war is decided in the hands of the powerful. The so-called tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even over ten million disciples are nothing more than cannon fodder.

The Phoenix Sect had no shortage of powerful individuals at this moment; just the Starry Divine Guards in the Golden Core Realm, comparable to the Dragon God Realm, numbered around seven hundred.

But these individuals, while a pleasant surprise to Su Han, weren’t something he paid too much attention to.

Because the Dragon God Realm, on the Dragon Martial Continent, was ultimately only considered high-grade, if all these individuals ascended to the Dragon Emperor Realm, then the Phoenix Sect would truly possess the capacity to shake heaven and earth!

What Su Han needed to do now was to accumulate strong warriors!
