“That’s Dao Lord Desolate Martial!”
Many cultivators thought to themselves.
Although they had never seen Su Zimo before, they felt that only such a powerful aura was worthy of Desolate Martial’s Dao title!
The Sect Master of Stellar Luna Sect and everyone else who had seen Su Zimo before lamented internally.
If they had not seen it with their own eyes, they would not have believed that Dao Lord Desolate Martial had transformed to such a state after merely 10 years!
This was not merely an increase in his cultivation realm.
It was an indescribable feeling.
More than ten years ago, Su Zimo was lauded as the strongest monster incarnate in history and killed many titular disciples, gaining fame in Tianhuang Mainland; he was even reborn after a single attack from a Half-Martial Ancestor.
However, at that time, Stellar Luna Sect and the others still looked at Su Zimo as though they were looking at a junior.
But now, there was a sense of vicissitude and pressure emanating from Su Zimo. In front of him, everyone from Stellar Luna Sect felt a sense of pressure!
“Congratulations on entering the Dharma Characteristic realm, Fellow Daoist Desolate Martial.”
After a long silence, the Murong family’s master was the first to step forward and say gently, “Of course, I would like to congratulate you on establishing the Martial Dao and bringing blessings to the masses as well.”
“Back when I parted ways with you, I told you that I would personally pay a visit to congratulate you if you can establish your Martial Dao. Today, I’m fulfilling my promise.”
The Murong family’s master was a beautiful middle-aged lady. She looked to be in her thirties and had a voluptuous figure. Her words and actions were elegant and dignified while her voice was gentle and beautiful, sounding like a spring breeze.
“You’re too kind, Fellow Daoist Murong.”
Su Zimo smiled gently and nodded. “Take a seat.”
The hall was extremely empty.
At that moment, Tao Yao walked down the steps upon Su Zimo’s orders and took out a chair from his storage bag, placing it beside the Murong family’s master.
“Please!”
Tao Yao made an inviting gesture.
“Thank you, Dao child.”
The Murong family’s master smiled and sat down.
The other cultivators of the Murong family were naturally not qualified to sit in the main hall and stood behind the Murong family’s master.
Su Zimo’s gaze shifted to the Sect Master of Stellar Luna Sect.
The Sect Master of Stellar Luna Sect laughed and stood out, bowing slightly. “Greetings, Fellow Daoist Desolate Martial. Congratulations on entering the Dharma Characteristic realm and imparting martial arts to all living beings!”
“Well said,”
Su Zimo nodded. “Take a seat.”
Tao Yao took out another chair from his storage bag and placed it beside the Sect Master of Stellar Luna Sect.
The Sect Master of Stellar Luna Sect heaved a sigh of relief.
More than ten years ago, after the battle at the palace of Yan Country, he told Su Zimo that he would forget about the feud between Su Zimo and Stellar Luna Sect.
In the battle outside Ping Yang Town thereafter, no cultivators from Stellar Luna Sect took part in it either.
From the looks of it, those two decisions were made correctly!
The Valley Master of Blaze Columbus Valley cupped his fists and laughed. “Fellow Daoist Desolate Martial, to think that something like imparting martial arts to all living beings would be done by you! It’s nothing much for you to enter the Dharma Characteristic realm, but it’s definitely worth bragging about creating the Martial Dao!”
“No problem,”
Su Zimo nodded with a smile. “Valley Master, why don’t you stay here today? There’s a wine pool in Dragon Tiger Sect and the wine inside is fragrant. You can drink to your heart’s content!”
“Good, good, good!”
The Valley Master of Blaze Columbus Valley’s eyes lit up as he said hurriedly, “Since Fellow Daoist Desolate Martial has said that, I won’t decline. Although I’ve drunk the good wine of Dragon Tiger Sect before, I’ve never had my fill of it. I can finally drink to my heart’s content today!”
“Take a seat.”
Su Zimo gestured with a nod.
Tao Yao arrived beside the Valley Master of Blaze Columbus Valley and moved out a seat.
“Thank you.”
The Valley Master of Blaze Columbus Valley laughed and sat down comfortably.
Initially, the atmosphere in the hall was a little tense.
But now, the atmosphere was much livelier after that exchange.
Many cultivators were relieved as well.
Cultivators from other sects such as Dark Ghost Sect, Seven Kills Sect and Blood Mist Sect thought to themselves, “Legend has it that Desolate Martial is decisive in killing like a fiend. Now that I think about it, he seems rather easygoing.”
“Master, you’re worrying too much.”
Dao Lord Black Leather sent a voice transmission as well, “Seems like Desolate Martial is smart and has no intention of offending us.”
The Sect Master of Dark Ghost Sect said nothing.
Actually, the current situation did not prove anything.
Stellar Luna Sect, Blaze Columbus Valley and the Murong family did not have any deep feuds with Su Zimo to begin with.
However, it was different for them!
More than ten years ago, they sent a Conjoint Body Mighty Figure of their sect to kill Desolate Martial!
A few days ago outside Ping Yang Town, their cultivators even arrived nearby to covet Desolate Martial’s belongings!
That was a huge taboo!
As the Sect Master of Dark Ghost Sect hesitated, Seven Kills Sect stood out.
Similar to the Sect Master of Stellar Luna Sect, the Sect Master of Seven Kills Sect revealed a smile and cupped his fists. “Congratulations on entering the Dharma Characteristic realm, Fellow Daoist Desolate Martial. You have established the Martial Dao and it’s a blessing for all living beings. This is an eternal achievement!”
Under normal circumstances, Su Zimo should accord this person a seat right now.
However, at that moment, Su Zimo was expressionless and merely looked at the Sect Master of Seven Kills Sect in silence, leaving him there!
The smile on the face of the Sect Master of Seven Kills Sect froze.
The group of cultivators had just relaxed when they suddenly felt a sense of trepidation, as though a calamity was about to descend upon them!
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly turned tense!
Back then, one of the six Conjoint Body Mighty Figures that encircled Su Zimo was from Seven Kills Sect!
There were also cultivators of Seven Kills Sect outside Ping Yang Town!
“Dao Lord Desolate Martial, I…”
The Sect Master of Seven Kills Sect looked awkward. Just as he was about to continue, Su Zimo retracted his gaze and turned to look at the Sect Master of Heaven Motion Sect who was not far away.
“It’s been more than 10 years. How have you been, sect master?”
Su Zimo smiled gently.
More than ten years ago, the Sect Master of Heaven Motion Sect promised him that he would write off his feud with Su Zimo from then on and would not cause trouble for the latter.
Later on, Heaven Motion Sect fulfilled their promise and did not send any cultivators to Ping Yang Town.
The Sect Master of Heaven Motion Sect froze for a moment and even felt flattered, saying hurriedly, “You’re welcome, Fellow Daoist.”
“Take a seat.”
Su Zimo nodded.
Tao Yao moved a chair and placed it beside the Sect Master of Heaven Motion Sect.
The Sect Master of Seven Kills Sect stood at the side and could neither advance nor retreat. His face flushed red and purple as he felt a burning sensation!
“A clear distinction between gratitude and hatred!”
Two words flashed through the Sect Master of Stellar Luna Sect’s mind.
Su Zimo’s attitude towards them was completely different from his attitude towards the Sect Master of Seven Kills Sect!
Although they were all here with the intention of befriending Su Zimo, it was most likely going to be fruitless for Dark Ghost Sect, Seven Kills Sect and the other sects!
“Desolate Martial, what’s the meaning of this?!”
An elder of Seven Kills Sect could not hold it in any longer and stood out. Killing intent surged in his eyes as he said coldly, “Our sect master is here personally to extend his congratulations. How can we allow a young kid like you to humiliate us?!”
“Hmm?”
Su Zimo’s expression turned cold and his gaze intensified.
“You want to kill me?”
Su Zimo’s spirit perception was the most sensitive to killing intent.
Seven Kills Sect had once sent a Conjoint Body Mighty Figure to kill him. That debt had yet to be settled and this Seven Kills Sect elder still dared to harbor killing intent towards him!
“You must have a death wish!”
Exhaling, Su Zimo raised two fingers and conjured a sword art, slashing towards the Seven Kills Sect elder!
Chi!
A bedazzling sword beam burst forth, creating a vast expanse of white.
The Seven Kills Sect elder was alarmed.
He had not expected that Su Zimo would be so domineering as to kill in public in front of so many sects and factions!
In a moment of distraction, the Heaven Slaying Sword Qi crossed the void and entered his head.
Poof!
The Seven Kills Sect elder was sliced into two and died on the spot!
