Heaven-Dominating Martial Emperor

Silence.

A deathly silence!

No one could have imagined it.

The enforcement team, personally led by the Ninth Layer Spirit Sea Realm expert Li Yuntian, had been utterly annihilated by Ye Chen in a single exchange!

Ye Chen stood with his hands behind his back, his expression as tranquil as still water.

It was as if his previous actions had been a trivial, effortless matter.

The towering demonic shadow faded away, but his proud bearing remained, like a Demon God standing tall, making the hearts of the Demon Dao cultivators pound wildly in their chests!

At almost the same moment.

Behind Ye Chen, the small group of Demon Dao members who had refused to flee the battle all fell to their knees in unison.

”We pay our respects to the Sect Leader!”

Their expressions were frenzied, as if they were witnessing a Demon God in the flesh!

Their voices were filled with utmost reverence, brimming with admiration and awe!

As for the other side, the group of Demon Dao experts who had already drawn a clear line between themselves and Ye Chen now wore ugly expressions, their hearts filled with shock and fear.

’To be able to so easily suppress and kill a Ninth Layer Spirit Sea Realm expert at such a young age... If given more time, just how powerful could he become?’

’Was their decision to leave the Demon Sect truly a wise one?’

Just then, Ye Chen suddenly turned to the people behind him and asked in a deep voice, ”Have you sorted through the contents of the Luoyun Sect’s treasury?”

Hearing this, everyone exchanged glances.

A figure exuding a powerful aura stepped forward and announced loudly, ”Reporting to the Sect Leader, we have gathered all the items from the Luoyun Sect’s treasury right here. We would never dare to take anything for ourselves! We were just waiting for your return to hand them all over!”

With that, the figure respectfully presented a Storage Ring to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen accepted it. With a sweep of his consciousness, he already had a rough idea of whether anything was missing from inside.

After all, as the former Saint Heir of the Luoyun Sect, he had fought countless battles and collected plenty of spoils for the sect.

He knew better than anyone just what treasures were hidden away in its treasury!

”Very good!”

Ye Chen saw that none of the items from the treasury were missing; everything was neatly arranged inside.

He nodded slightly and took out all the Spirit Stones.

In an instant, pile after pile of Spirit Stones, like small mountains, appeared before everyone.

The concentration of Spiritual Qi in the area seemed to thicken considerably.

”Set the array!”

Ye Chen’s fingers danced nimbly. One by one, the Spirit Stones shot out like streaks of light, landing in various locations around the sect to become the foundational points of an Array.

Before long, all the Spirit Stones on the ground had vanished, and faint lines of light seemed to connect each foundational point.

The faint outline of a vast and majestic Array began to materialize before their eyes.

”The Dragon’s Eye Dotting technique?”

”That’s a technique only the most supreme masters of the Dao of Arrays can grasp!”

”The Sect Leader… is also an expert in Arrays?”

Old Ghost Wushan couldn’t help but exclaim from within the crowd.

Hearing this, the others were all shocked beyond words.

’Is our Sect Leader really so omnipotent?’

Soon, after Ye Chen finished laying the Array’s foundation, his eyes flashed, and he uttered a single word: ”Activate!”

BOOM!

A terrifying killing Array, seemingly soaked in blood, began to operate!

An astonishing killing intent shot straight into the heavens!

The surrounding majestic mountains were torn open by that formless killing intent, sending rubble flying as deafening rumbles echoed endlessly!

”This is the Five Elements Extreme Dao Killing Array. It is enough to protect the sect and slaughter any enemy who dares to invade!”

”But this is only the beginning. Again!”

Ye Chen’s expression was solemn, his voice cold and clear.

However, the Spirit Stones on the field had already been completely consumed, not nearly enough to construct another Array!

Ye Chen took out the Storage Ring he had obtained from Li Yuntian, adding it to the resources plundered from the Cold Wind Sect’s treasury.

Soon, as his ten fingers danced, another terrifying great Array appeared before everyone!

The moment the great Array appeared, a terrifying suction force swept out in all directions!

The Spiritual Qi of this corner of the world, like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea, all converged and was drawn into the sect by the Array!

Everyone’s faces lit up with pleasant surprise.

They could feel that the surrounding Spiritual Qi concentration was several times richer than before.

Even the speed at which their internal Spiritual Power circulated had increased significantly.

In an instant, countless withered flowers, grasses, and trees were revitalized with vibrant life.

Everyone’s complexions turned rosy, and it even seemed that old injuries and hidden ailments within their bodies had healed considerably.

”This is the Great Array of Ten Thousand Sects Returning to One, a top-tier Spirit-Gathering Array!”

”With this Array, your cultivation speed will be greatly improved!”

”Even tasks like nurturing Spirit Grass and refining Spirit Pills will become much more convenient!”

Even Ye Chen, who had stepped into the Blood Condensation Extreme Realm, couldn’t help but feel a trace of fatigue after setting up two great Arrays in a row.

What he didn’t mention was that these two great Arrays secretly corresponded to the dao of yin and yang—one yin, one yang, interdependent and mutually supportive.

The Spiritual Qi gathered by the Great Array of Ten Thousand Sects Returning to One, aside from being used to improve the Spiritual Qi concentration here,

also had a portion that was used to sustain the operation of the Five Elements Extreme Dao Killing Array.

To put it bluntly, the Five Elements Extreme Dao Killing Array was completely self-activating and required no Cultivator to control it.

If anyone tried to force their way into the sect, or if a powerful enemy invaded,

the Five Elements Extreme Dao Killing Array would activate on its own, draw upon the Power of Heaven and Earth, and suppress the enemy!

It was like a barrier protecting the sect. Anyone who wanted to break in would first have to pass through it!

After inheriting the memories of the Ancient Demon God, Ye Chen’s attainments in the Dao of Arrays had already reached the pinnacle of perfection.

Although the combined resources of the Cold Wind Sect and the Luoyun Sect were not even enough to reproduce a fraction of such a top-tier great Array,

with Ye Chen’s skill in Arrays, he could still manage to set up a rudimentary version.

And this rudimentary version was already more than enough for the Demon Sect to protect itself!

’The resources in Lei Province are still too scarce, it seems!’

’To achieve the might of the Ancient Demon God, I’ll have to venture into a much wider world!’

Ye Chen shook his head, feeling a bit helpless.

The crowd had long been won over by Ye Chen’s methods. They were utterly and completely impressed by him!

”The Sect Leader’s methods are simply divine craftsmanship, profound and unpredictable!”

”To be able to follow the Sect Leader in this lifetime is our greatest fortune!”

At this moment, no one dared to question Ye Chen’s strength any longer.

He could casually set up an Array of such monstrous power.

Could anyone else in the entire Lei Province do the same?

Without a doubt, they now possessed the power to protect themselves.

Just a wisp of the aura casually leaking from the Five Elements Extreme Dao Killing Array was enough to suppress and kill a Spirit Sea Realm expert!

”Old man, do you still wish to leave?” Ye Chen asked, looking at Old Ghost Wushan.

Old Ghost Wushan bowed his head respectfully. ”The Sect Leader is immensely powerful, and his techniques are divinely unpredictable!”

”In my opinion, the Sect Leader truly has the potential to restore the glory of the Demon Sect!”

Hearing this, Ye Chen couldn’t help but smile.

”Sect Leader, we also wish to join the sect!” Just then, the group of Demon Dao experts who had previously drawn a line between themselves and Ye Chen all began to speak up.
