Chapter 88: Chapter 87: Great Peng King! The Deal with Su Nan!
The moment the barrier shattered.
Led by Su Nan, every elder of the Little Immortal Sect instantly arrived!
One Sect Leader at the Peak of Quasi-Emperor, six Great Saint Peak Masters, ten Saint King enforcers, over thirty Saint elders, more than a hundred King deacons!
This was the first sect Su Nan forged with the power of the entire Southern Region!
Such a terrifying group gathered in one place; their formidable aura alone made the heavens and earth tremble, and the void mourn.
Yet, even if this group could easily overpower a sacred land, they still showed somber and grave expressions in the face of the shattered barrier.
Demon!
The young cultivators might not understand, but they all had been through that terrifying racial war.
It truly was a sea of corpses and blood. Even mighty Saints could perish accidentally on that battlefield.
The bloodthirstiness, madness, and strength of the Demon Race, even after hundreds of years, remained vivid in their memories.
Years ago, in the race war, the Human Race didn’t win.
Instead, they united the power of the five domains to set up Heaven’s barrier, separating the Demon Race and the Human Race.
Both races recuperated for hundreds of years, and now the barrier has finally been broken by the Demon Race again!
"Did you build the Little Immortal Sect here knowing they would come?"
Wu Jiuling glanced at the imposing group beside him, feeling slightly relieved.
"I knew they would come, but I didn’t expect them so soon."
Su Nan narrowed his eyes, gazing into the distance at the group approaching.
Ten thousand years have passed, and the Emperor’s path will open; he predicted the Demon Race would launch another attack.
But he hadn’t expected the Demon Race to break through the barrier on the day his sect was established.
"Trying to intimidate me..."
Su Nan snorted softly.
"Hahaha, Su Nan, long time no see!"
A hearty laugh exploded from the sky, causing the King realm powerhouses on the Little Immortal Sect’s side to groan, feeling as if their eardrums were about to burst.
Boom!
Su Nan lifted an eyelid without accommodating, the Great Cyan Spear in his hand piercing the void like a black dragon, shooting forth.
The aura of the Peak of Quasi-Emperor permeated the heavens and earth, the pressure of the Emperor’s Weapon crashing down with overwhelming power.
Bam!
The whole lofty Demon Race paused, each letting out a muffled grunt and stepping back.
Only the one leading stood tall as a sword, with gold hair wildly dancing in the wind.
Seeing the Great Cyan Spear, not only did he not dodge, but he laughed and took a step forward, meeting the Emperor’s Weapon head-on with his palm.
With a violent boom, a tempestuous aura swept everywhere, and winds and clouds surged between heaven and earth.
Unexpectedly, the Great Cyan Spear flew back into Su Nan’s hand.
"If you brought the body of the Great Cyan Spear I’d fear you somewhat, but this fragment cannot so easily break my demon body."
The Great Peng King’s eyes shone sharp as crystalline diamonds.
The people of the Little Immortal Sect said nothing.
Is the body of the Emperor’s Weapon so easily moved?
Unless in a life-or-death crisis for a family or faction, no one would use such a deadly artifact.
Even the fragment of the Emperor’s Weapon carried some of its aura, yet it was blocked by his flesh.
This demonstrated the terrifying strength of the opponent’s body.
"Po Cang, I didn’t expect after hundreds of years you’d become the Great Peng King of the Golden-winged Roc Clan."
Su Nan showed no surprise that the opponent could block his Great Cyan Spear, only slightly astonished at his identity.
"Thanks to you, for killing my two brothers, letting me devour their bloodline."
The Great Peng King chuckled lightly, but his eyes couldn’t shed the coldness.
"Pity I didn’t kill you; you’ve grown into quite a force."
Su Nan looked at the Great Peng King, his expression a half-smile.
Back then, in his youthful exuberance, he obsessed over assaulting the Great Peng King alone.
No grievance; just because his inherited Emperor’s Weapon was the Great Cyan Spear, while the other was called Po Cang, it irked him.
The Great Peng King fell silent at his words.
Back then, Su Nan drilled through the hundred thousand strong Demon Race army just to hunt him down.
If not for the innate speed of the Golden-winged Roc Clan, he would have long been slain under Su Nan’s spear.
"Speak, breaking the barrier isn’t just for reminiscing with me, right?"
Seeing only the Golden-winged Roc Clan, with no other demon clans behind, Su Nan felt slightly relieved.
The Golden-winged Roc Clan was strong, but he feared not a single clan.
"Ha, I heard today is the day your sect was founded, Su Nan; naturally, I’ve come to bring a gift."
The Great Peng King scanned all around with sharp eyes, then looked down at the mountains, speaking disdainfully,
"The sky is too low here, the mountains too short, and the scarce resources are pitiful."
"Now Heaven’s barrier is broken. I offer you, Little Immortal Sect, the Demon Race’s thousand-mile mountains and rivers, filled with countless treasures, how about it?"
At those words, everyone’s pupils in the Little Immortal Sect contracted.
The demon territory differs from the Human Race; the demon aura there fosters the growth of extraordinary treasures and divine materials, and the spiritual power is exceedingly abundant.
If the Little Immortal Sect could truly take the demon realm’s thousand-mile mountains and rivers as its backyard, the benefits would be endless.
Not only could disciples train in the demon realm, but they could also reap endless resources.
Moreover, the demon bodies are filled with treasures; in alchemy, artifact refining, talisman crafting... every demon is worth a fortune.
Just like the Human Race, to the Demon Race, human essence and blood are also excellent cultivating materials.
The Great Peng King said he offered the thousand-mile mountains and rivers, but it was more like opening up a simple battlefield with the Little Immortal Sect.
Specifically for the younger generation, a battlefield for young talents!
Yet, no matter how you look at it, for the Little Immortal Sect it’s a huge gain, since once the thousand-mile mountains and rivers are given, they’re the Human Race’s!
"Conditions."
Su Nan asked flatly, not believing the Great Peng King capable of such goodwill.
"I heard you took the Taikoo inscriptions from the hands of the demonic path?"
The Great Peng King’s golden pupils flashed as he spoke:
"Coincidentally, I have a progeny who just began cultivating and wishes to use these inscriptions to test his aptitude."
After his words, a golden-haired youth strode out from the demon crowd, golden eyes sharp and unscrupulous.
He merely stood, yet the sound of tumultuous blood flowing within him could be heard.
Golden rays flickered around him like a blazing sun, captivating.
"Bloodline regression! Ancient Tianpeng!"
A Great Saint from the Little Immortal Sect’s eyes lit up, seeing through the young Peng King’s roots, exclaiming in awe.
At these words, the faces of the Human Race present changed.
The Demon Race values bloodlines, and the Ancient Tianpeng bloodline is even more terrifying than the Human Race’s Sacred Body.
The previous Great Peng King had such a bloodline: unmatched speed, terrifying strength.
If he wasn’t aged and no longer active, even the Peak of Quasi-Emperor couldn’t have dealt with him.
But unexpectedly, such formidable bloodline emerged again!
"The era is upon us!"
This thought simultaneously arose in everyone’s minds.
The Emperor’s path is about to open, and monstrous young talents are continuously appearing.
"Just add one person to the test, and I’ll give you a thousand-mile mountains and rivers. Is this deal worth it?"
The Great Peng King noticed the shock on the Human Race’s faces and showed a proud smile.
Even for him, a thousand-mile rivers were extremely valuable.
But those tested Taikoo inscriptions could create values many times, even dozens of times, more powerful!
The previous old Peng King was fortunate to undergo the Taikoo test with his Ancient Tianpeng aptitude, eventually overpowering many generations of talents, ranking tenth on the list!
No one knew what benefits the old Peng King gained under Taikoo’s blessing.
But from then, the Golden-winged Roc Clan acquired a nearly Emperor-level divine technique!
Today, the young Peng King possesses the Ancient Tianpeng bloodline; can he also squeeze into the top ten?
Can he secure a powerful divine technique for the Golden-winged Roc Clan?
Today, the Great Peng King shattered the barrier for two reasons!
One, to let the young Peng King participate in the test and gain Taikoo’s blessing!
Two, to have the young Peng King surpass all disciples of the Little Immortal Sect and slap Su Nan in the face hard!
