Swoosh!
A glass light suddenly descended with a sharp killing intent, almost tearing through the void as it smashed down towards Su Zimo’s head!
The glass light seemed to carry the might of Heaven and Earth and was unstoppable!
“Conjoint Body Mighty Figure!”
“Desolate Martial is invincible among the Dharma Characteristic Dao Lords. In the end, the Conjoint Body Mighty Figures can’t sit by idly!”
“The Mighty Figure of Glass Palace is trying to kill Desolate Martial directly!”
The crowd was in an uproar.
All of a sudden!
Suddenly, a black shadow flew out from the crowd on the other side and struck the glass light!
There was a loud bang!
The black shadow revealed its true form—it was a gigantic Weapon Tripod.
On the other side, the Conjoint Body Mighty Figure that attacked shuddered and staggered a few steps back. He had a terrible expression as he glared in the direction of the Weapon Tripod!
“Extreme Fire!”
The Glass Palace Mighty Figure grit his teeth and spat out.
It was only then that many cultivators realized what was happening.
In that split second earlier, the Mighty Figure of Glass Palace wanted to kill Su Zimo but the latter was saved by Mighty Figure Extreme Fire of Hundred Refinement Sect!
“What are you trying to do?”
Extreme Fire stood up slowly and his eyes seemed to be burning with flames. “Today is the fight for the Dharma Characteristic Ranking. Earlier on, I didn’t say anything even when many Dharma Characteristic Dao Lords surrounded Zimo together shamelessly. And now, even a Conjoint Body Mighty Figure wants to be equally shameless?”
“Extreme Fire, this has nothing to do with the fight for the Dharma Characteristic Ranking today. This is a feud between super sects like us and Desolate Martial!”
A Mighty Figure of Heavenly Dipper Sect stood out with an unfriendly expression as well.
A Mighty Figure of Chaos Essence Sect had a murderous aura and said coldly, “That’s right. The feud between us and Desolate Martial has to end today!”
“It’s fine to end a feud,”
Extreme Fire said, “The cultivation world is filled with strife and it’s inevitable for there to be friendships and feuds. However, if you guys want to bully others with numbers and seniority, I’m not going to let that happen as long as I’m here!”
“Extreme Fire, let me advise you not to get involved!”
Immortal Sword laughed coldly at the side. “Nobody will be able to protect Desolate Martial today. He’ll definitely die!”
Extreme Fire put away his Weapon Tripod without any fear in his eyes as he said slowly, “Why? You so-called orthodox sects don’t even know shame anymore?”
“A group of Conjoint Body Mighty Figures are actually joining forces to deal with a Dharma Characteristic Dao Lord. Is this how righteous immortal sects are?”
A Mighty Figure of Snowdrift Valley stood out. “It’s the fortune of all living beings that Desolate Martial was able to establish the Martial Dao and impart martial arts to all living beings. He established that eternal stele with incredible merit. If you guys insist on making things difficult for him, won’t you be disappointing the hearts of all cultivators in the world?!”
“That’s right.”
A Mighty Figure from one of the immortal sects, Clear Wind Temple, nodded as well. “Although it’s a personal feud, what does it mean if a few Conjoint Body Mighty Figures of the immortal, fiend and Buddhist sects join forces to deal with a single Dharma Characteristic Dao Lord? Aren’t you afraid of being laughed at by the future generation?”
Not all the super sects of the nine immortal sects were against Su Zimo.
A Mighty Figure of Pure Maiden Sect stood out as well and sneered, “Although those from the immortal sects speak of benevolence and Dao, they’re filled with scheming and conniving plots. What a joke.”
“Amitabha,”
A Mighty Figure of Dapamkara Monastery chanted a Buddhist proclamation softly as well. “Patron Desolate Martial has supreme merit in giving to all living beings. Indeed, you guys should not be doing this.”
The impact of Desolate Martial establishing a Dao and imparting martial arts to all living beings was way too great for the cultivation world and Tianhuang Mainland!
That single incident pushed Su Zimo’s reputation to its peak!
Before long, two factions were formed among the immortal, Buddhist and fiend sects.
The people who wanted to kill Su Zimo were naturally led by Immortal Sword.
Extreme Fire and the others were on Su Zimo’s side.
Of course, although the Mighty Figures of Snowdrift Valley and Clear Wind Temple were willing to speak up for Su Zimo, they might not wage war against the other Mighty Figures for the sake of Desolate Martial.
“Things are getting more interesting,”
The Golden Crow Third Prince clapped excitedly when he saw the chaos in the human cultivation world.
“I truly don’t understand how we were defeated in the ancient war given the state of the human race!” Rakshasa Feng Tian sneered.
Piak! Piak!
While the two sides were in a stalemate, someone clapped from the side, attracting the gazes of many cultivators.
Heavenly Secrets finally stood out.
Ever since Su Zimo appeared, he had been watching coldly from the sidelines.
Now that the situation was tense, he had to step in!
“Everyone, there’s no need to argue,”
Heavenly Secrets smiled indifferently. “Why don’t we ask Dao Lord Desolate Martial first? If you aren’t here for the fight for the Dharma Characteristic Ranking today, what are you here for?”
That question was the key!
Su Zimo did not hesitate and sneered, pointing at Night Spirit beneath Immortal Sword and the others. “There’s nothing to hide. I’m here today to take him away!”
“Ah!”
The moment he said that, a cry sounded from the crowd.
Night Spirit was a cruel and cold-blooded primordial taboo.
Apart from the fight for the Dharma Characteristic Ranking, all the cultivators gathered here today were here to witness Night Spirit’s death!
But now, Su Zimo had openly declared that he wanted to take away that extremely dangerous primordial taboo!
“Good, good, good!”
The smile in Heavenly Secrets’s eyes intensified. “As expected of Desolate Martial. You’re truly open and honest.”
A primordial taboo was the enemy of all ten thousand races!
Su Zimo’s action was equivalent to standing opposite the ten thousand races.
Nobody dared to imagine what sort of a bloodbath that primordial taboo would cause in Tianhuang Mainland if it was alive!
That was an uncertain danger!
It had to be killed!
The immortal, Buddhist and fiend sects did not doubt that at all!
This time round, even the Mighty Figure of Snowdrift Valley frowned and reminded, “Desolate Martial, don’t be foolish. If you want to save him, no one can save you!”
Those were truly earnest words.
Unfortunately, Su Zimo was determined.
He had made many preparations, including his trump card, the Dragon True Body—there was no way he would back down!
Extreme Fire’s expression turned grim as well.
“Zimo, you have to think carefully about the possible consequences of your decision!”
Extreme Fire sent a voice transmission with his spirit consciousness, “At that time, you’ll turn the entire world against you. Even I won’t be able to protect you! Even if you manage to escape, you might not survive in Tianhuang Mainland!”
“I know,”
Su Zimo replied indifferently, “Master, there’s no need to say more. This is my decision. There’s no need for you and Hundred Refinement Sect to interfere.”
“Senior crane, Nian Qi, there’s no need for you guys to attack either,”
Turning around, Su Zimo said to everyone from Ethereal Peak.
Thereafter, he looked at Demoness Ji of Pure Maiden Sect and shook his head slowly.
Su Zimo knew that if he chose to save Night Spirit, people like Extreme Fire and the others would stand by his side without hesitation as well.
However, those people would definitely fall into the vortex and might be minced to death!
That was because he knew that the enemies this time round were not only Conjoint Body Mighty Figures of Sword Sect and Chaos Essence Sect, but also the ferocious beings of the Primordial Nine Races that were hidden among the cultivators!
That was the reason why Su Zimo did not inform monkey and the others about Night Spirit’s capture.
