The Holy Hall master was not an ordinary God. Over the years, he had been searching for more strength outside the dominion. In fact, he had spent very little of his time actually cultivating in the Holy Hall. Thus, his cultivation level was actually slightly higher than Xiang Yangzhan’s. He was a fifth-stage Rebirth Realm cultivator.
As the master of the Holy Hall, he ruled over all the organizations of the Desert of Despair that had vanished from aboveground and had gone to live underground. He was the strongest God under the ground.
He had not come to the Ziling Sect alone. He had brought two old men with him. One was a one-eyed guardian of the Holy Hall while the other was the Holy Hall’s first elder. They were respectively in the third-stage Rebirth Realm and the first-stage Rebirth Realm. The three were the Holy Hall’s strongest representatives, and their appearance made it clear they were sincere in helping the Ziling Sect.
Xiang Yangzhan was very grateful for their reinforcement. He was also inwardly impressed at how capable his son was. His son had actually obtained a wife with such a powerful background all by himself. The Ziling Sect had prepared itself for a battle.
Finally, the people of the opposing organizations finally arrived.
Every single one of them was a God. The group included two Gods from the Di Clan, and fifteen Gods in total had been deployed this time. This was most certainly a powerful group that could destroy even a tier-8 organization. Wu You, Nangong Shui, and Hong Quanba were the strongest in the group. They were all sixth-stage Rebirth Realm cultivators.
As for the two from the Di Clan, they weren’t weak, but they were only second-stage Rebirth Realm cultivators. It was obvious the Di Clan wasn’t using all their strength against the Ziling Sect. Although the three organizations were unhappy, they did not say anything about it. They stepped through layer upon layer of space before finally arriving above the Ziling Sect. Immediately, they unleashed their godly presence upon the Ziling Sect.
However, the Ziling Sect had long relocated their members to the Holy Earth Hall. Nobody knew what would happen in a battle between Gods. Perhaps their enemies would take this chance to completely erase the Ziling Sect. Thus, they had decided to relocate the weaker members away so that they could fight without inhibitions.
“Purple Lightning Marquis, Scarlet Flame Monarch, where are you? Get your ass out here!” roared Hong Quanba.
His voice was in itself a terrifying attack that few could withstand. Immediately after, several figures appeared in the sky.
“It’s you, Hong Quanba? Even after so many years, you’re still this weak? How disappointing,” said Purple Lightning Marquis with a sneer.
“You’re Purple Lightning Marquis?” Hong Quanba cried out in alarm.
“What? You don’t remember me anymore? I still look the same, but you seem to have aged considerably,” said Purple Lightning Marquis as he flicked his purple hair with a smirk.
“You have a stinky mouth. You were lucky enough to escape back then. This time, that won’t happen again!” said Wu You coldly.
“Are you the young sect master that pissed himself at the mere sight of the Overlord back then? Wu You from the Jing Sect?” asked Purple Lightning Marquis.
“I will slice you into pieces, you bastard!” roared Wu You as he drew his Worriless Sword.
“Purple Lightning, Scarlet Flame, don’t tell me that the fellow beside you is Overlord reincarnated?” asked Nangong Shui as he focused on Xiang Yangzhan.
“Who the hell are you, granny?” asked Purple Lightning Marquis.
Nangong Shui was instantly infuriated. She screeched, “You bastard! Who do you think you’re calling granny? Take a good look!”
Her life force started surging, and her appearance started turning young. A beautiful face appeared, but unfortunately, there was a scar on her face, a scar that ruined the perfection that was the face.
Scarlet Flame Monarch exclaimed, “You’re that slut, Nangong Shui?”
“Both of you deserve death!” Nangong Shui raged. She unleashed a furious water palm toward Scarlet Flame Monarch.
The palm was akin to the waves of a vast ocean, advancing with a terrifying might. Purple Lightning Monarch stood before Scarlet Flame Monarch, manifested a lightning spear, and stabbed at the incoming palm. All the sea waves dispersed into nothingness.
“All of you will pay for the scar Xiang Dingtian left on my face back then!” said Nangong Shui as she dashed forth like a phantom and attacked Purple Lightning Marquis with her full strength.
Water Snatch!
Instantly, a terrifying clump of energy gathered around Nangong Shui. The energy spread forth to envelop both Purple Lightning Marquis and Scarlet Flame Monarch, instantly causing the two of them to start becoming desiccated. Man or God, without water, one’s life would be threatened.
“We need to make a move as well. After killing all of them, we will disappear,” said Wu You with thick killing intent. He picked Xiang Yangzhan as his opponent, as he believed that Xiang Yangzhan was Xiang Dingtian’s reincarnation.
“I can no longer suppress my fist. I’m going to punch them apart!” roared Hong Quanba as he charged forth, aiming for the Holy Hall master.
The others also sallied forth, each looking for their own opponent. One could say that this battle was a collision between a new power and several old powers. Whether the Ziling Sect would be able to survive this baptism of Gods would rely on their own strength.
“My patience has been running thin over the years. I’ll show you my current strength!” said Purple Lightning Marquis as he turned berserk. Terrifying lightning energy erupted from his body, numerous tendrils of electricity spreading all around him to form a world of purple lightning. A series of bombardments was unleashed upon Nangong Shui.
“No matter how you struggle, you won’t be able to escape death,” said Nangong Shui. She showed no fear as she created one water ball after another. The water balls were released upon the lightning bombardment.
Lightning was a hard power, while water was a soft power. Which would prevail in this confrontation?
Meanwhile, Xiang Yangzhan and Wu You had also engaged each other in a battle.
Xiang Yangzhan’s cultivation level was slightly lower, but his combat strength was comparable to Wu You’s. That was especially true when he raged, as he would become rather terrifying in his fury.
“This is something I built for my son. If I allow bastards like you to destroy it, it would be too humiliating for me as a father! Thus, die, all of you!” said Xiang Yangzhan as he clashed against his opponent with his lightning spear in his hand.
Wu You swung his Worriless Sword repeatedly, unleashing one alarming sword ray after another. His sword rays threatened to slice the world itself into pieces as they advanced and slashed apart Xiang Yangzhan’s attacks.
“It doesn’t even matter if you’re Xiang Dingtian reincarnated. Today, you die!” declared Wu You confidently.
“Life is truly interesting with a grandson-in-law that is so adept at courting trouble,” said the Holy Hall master as he clashed against Hong Quanba.
