Heaven-Dominating Martial Emperor

After all, when Ye Chen fought the abbot of the Vajra Temple, the abbot had revealed his identity as an evil cultivator under everyone’s watchful eyes. He made no attempt to hide it, so the news naturally spread at an astonishing speed.

And besides the Vajra Temple’s abbot, traces of many other evil cultivators had appeared since.

Ye Chen alone had already fought several of the most infamous and powerful demon lords among the evil cultivators.

After the Demon Exorcism Institute took note of the developments in Lei Province, the middle-aged scholar and his group immediately set out for Kunlun Mountain.

They had long since heard the news of a secret realm appearing on Kunlun Mountain and also knew that many evil cultivators were active in the area.

”I told you all long ago that the mountain wasn’t safe, but you refused to listen.”

”If I weren’t here, I’m afraid you all would have been annihilated.”

The middle-aged scholar swept his gaze over the many Cultivators present, a hint of resignation in his tone.

Before ascending the mountain, almost everyone had passed by the spot where he was.

And he had offered a word of warning to each of them.

Based on the Demon Exorcism Institute’s experience, evil cultivators wouldn’t appear for no reason. There was certainly a trap set by them on Kunlun Mountain.

However, everyone seemed to have been blinded by the allure of the Kunlun Mountain secret realm; no one had listened to him at all.

Hearing this, many of the Cultivators lowered their heads in shame.

They hadn’t paid any attention to the middle-aged scholar’s words. Only now did they realize how foolish their actions had been. They had been lured here by rumors spread by the evil cultivators, nearly becoming their fodder.

”Oh, right. I haven’t introduced myself.”

”I am Mo Tianyun, a Grand Deacon of the Great Hong Demon Exorcism Institute.”

”My every word and deed represents the will of the Great Hong Demon Exorcism Institute. Whether you choose to listen to me is up to you.”

Mo Tianyun paid the other Cultivators no more mind. His gaze lingered on Ye Chen for a moment with a hint of admiration before quickly shifting to the Celestial Slaughter Nether Venerable.

His main purpose on this trip was to deal with the demon lord before him.

”Grand Deacon?”

”Your cultivation is merely at the Ninth Layer of the Divinity Transformation Realm. Do you really think you can deal with me?”

The Celestial Slaughter Nether Venerable was not the least bit intimidated by the Demon Exorcism Institute’s name. His expression was indifferent, and his voice, like a great clap of thunder, echoed endlessly between heaven and earth.

”We won’t know until we try, will we?”

Mo Tianyun smiled. He took a step forward, and the terrifying power of his Ninth-Layer Divinity Transformation Realm cultivation instantly erupted. A vast aura spread out, blanketing the sky and earth!

”Heh heh... Then let’s try!”

The Celestial Slaughter Nether Venerable showed no fear. A violent aura cascaded down like a mountain torrent and a tsunami, viciously colliding with the pressure from Mo Tianyun’s Spiritual Power.

In the unseen void, it was as if countless explosions were ringing out one after another. Astonishing turbulence spread as the two Ninth-Layer Divinity Transformation Realm experts clashed. The sheer might of their confrontation was world-shaking!

”Thank goodness someone from the Demon Exorcism Institute is here.”

”The Celestial Slaughter Nether Venerable has been intercepted! It seems we’ve escaped disaster.”

Huo Qiguang’s eyes flickered, and he said decisively, ”But I fear there are still other dangers here. We should leave as quickly as possible.”

The moment his voice fell, countless figures suddenly flew down from the surging vortex of Evil Qi behind the Celestial Slaughter Nether Venerable.

At the forefront of these countless figures stood several equally infamous demon lords whose strength had reached the Fifth Layer of the Divinity Transformation Realm or higher!

Under their leadership, innumerable hideous ghouls and fiends swarmed forth, blanketing the area in a tide so vast one could not see its end.

Such a terrifying scene sent a chill through many hearts.

The mountaintop was surrounded by a sea of blood, and now, countless evil creatures were emerging on the plaza, closing in to annihilate them!

The evil cultivators had completely sealed off the area. Even if the Celestial Slaughter Nether Venerable didn’t act, their situation was still incredibly perilous!

”Looks like we have to go all out today!”

”Kill!”

”We have to kill every last one of these bastards! Otherwise, none of us will escape Kunlun Mountain!”

Faced with such a crisis, the various experts on the field spontaneously joined forces.

The top experts from the major factions confronted the demon lords leading the ghouls.

The other, weaker Cultivators engaged the sky-filling swarm of ghouls.

”No!”

Within the Cyan Ape Tribe’s ranks, piercing screams suddenly erupted.

A demon lord had just charged into the Cyan Ape Tribe’s formation!

It was a terrifying existence at the Sixth Layer of the Divinity Transformation Realm. He rampaged uncontested, and with a wave of his hand, a large number of experts exploded into a mist of blood. He collected all of their pure vital energy and blood into a transparent bottle.

”The White-Robed High Priest isn’t here! We lack an expert to protect us! Faced with a demon lord like this, our only choice is to flee for our lives!”

They had no time to resent Ye Chen for killing the White-Robed High Priest; their only thought was to scatter and escape.

But still, a great number of the Cyan Ape Tribe’s experts fell.

The situation for the Yu family and the Xiao family was no better than that of the Cyan Ape Tribe.

The Black Tiger Tribe was even more miserable; nearly all the experts they had brought to Kunlun Mountain were wiped out.

”Quick, retreat toward the edge!”

Huo Qiguang raised a hand, suppressing a large swath of ghouls, and was the first to flee into the distance.

Behind him, the experts of the Huo family hurriedly followed.

Huo Wuji was responsible for covering their rear, but Huo Qiguang wasn’t the least bit worried that he would meet with misfortune.

After all, Ye Chen was right beside Huo Wuji!

’This kid’s vital energy and blood are frighteningly abundant!’

’Such a delectable meal! I absolutely cannot let it go!!!’

A demon lord noticed Ye Chen trailing behind the Huo family’s group. Mistaking him for an ordinary junior, the demon lord immediately swiped a claw at him.

Huo Wuji noticed this, but he didn’t intervene. He simply continued to kill the other ghouls nearby, allowing the rest of the Huo family to escape smoothly.

”Hm?”

The demon lord frowned. ’Is this family planning to abandon this junior?’

Just as he thought he was about to succeed, Ye Chen suddenly raised his eyes to look at him.

That gaze was as sharp as a divine weapon from the heavens. The demon lord’s heart clenched as he was met with it, and his hand movement unconsciously paused for a fraction of a second.

While the demon lord was still reeling in shock and doubt, Ye Chen threw a punch. A torrent of cyan light erupted, and a violent power surged forth like a tidal wave, striking the Fifth-Layer Divinity Transformation Realm demon lord in an instant.

BOOM!

The demon lord didn’t even have time to let out a scream before his body exploded into pieces that scattered across the ground.

’Truly courting death, to dare and pick a fight with Young Friend Ye.’

’Did he really think he was just some ordinary junior?’

Huo Wuji watched from a distance as the demon lord was blasted apart by Ye Chen’s punch, and he shook his head with a sigh.

”Trying to leave?”

The Celestial Slaughter Nether Venerable’s gaze hardened as he noticed Ye Chen and the Boundary Spirit fleeing toward the edge.
