200 The Past!
“Hmph!”
A cold snort sounded from the east.
The moment the voice sounded, the boundless darkness that originally enveloped the sky changed again.
As this cold snort sounded, it was instantly dispelled.
An ancient supreme aura spread out, expelling the darkness that filled the sky. Then the clear sky appeared again.
At the same time, a figure slowly walked over.
The moment that figure appeared, countless people looked over and saw a towering figure shatter the void and come over.
In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of everyone.
This huge being and the monstrous aura emitted by it deeply affected countless cultivators at this moment.
Moreover, the terrifying pressure that had originally enveloped Chen Feng’s body had disappeared.
Seeing the appearance of this being, Chen Feng heaved a sigh of relief and cupped his fists respectfully.
“Sect Master.”
The middle-aged man in front of him nodded slightly. “Not bad.”
As he spoke, he looked at the Demon Master of the Heavenly Demon Sect.
His short response had already caused a huge commotion below.
“Sect Master? This person is the sect master of the Empyrean Sword Sect.”
“Oh my god! What’s going on today? The Demon Master of the Heavenly Demon Sect has arrived. Even the Sect Master of the Empyrean Sword Sect has come.”
“These two are both half a step into the True Emperor Realm. They are top figures of the Southern Region.”
“Could it be that they are also going to fight this time?”
“…”
Countless people exclaimed in shock at the arrival of the Empyrean Sword Sect Master.
After all, the sect master of the Empyrean Sword Sect was the same as the sect master of the Heavenly Demon Sect. They were both top beings in the Southern Region.
It was already very good to see one usually, let alone now that the two of them were here.
While everyone was shocked, the Sect Master of the Empyrean Sword Sect looked at the Demon Master of the Heavenly Demon Sect and spoke slowly.
“It’s been a hundred years since we last met, right?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the Demon Master’s hoarse voice sounded again under the black robe. “A full hundred years.”
When the Sect Master of the Empyrean Sword Sect heard this, he nodded slightly. “It’s been a hundred years. I didn’t expect this meeting to be carried out in this way.”
“The two of us are old acquaintances.”
“I don’t want to say anything else. There’s only one sentence. I’ll definitely take Shen Ran away!”
The words of the Sect Master of the Empyrean Sword Sect were filled with determination.
As soon as he finished speaking, to everyone’s surprise, the Demon Master slowly stretched out his arm.
His arm was extremely fair, like a woman’s arm.
He held his arm in midair and clenched it into a fist, as if he was waiting for something.
This scene puzzled everyone.
However, when the Sect Master of the Empyrean Sword Sect saw this scene, he smiled.
Then he walked over step by step and extended his fist like the Demon Master.
Just like that, under the gaze of countless people, the two fists collided.
However, logically speaking, these two were infinitely close to the True Emperor Realm.
The collision of fists would definitely cause turmoil in this world, with all kinds of phenomena.
However, unexpectedly, when their fists collided, there was no sound.
Their fists hung in midair, as if in a stalemate.
This stunned everyone.
The two Demon Masters who were involved looked up at each other.
It was like what the two of them used to do.
The collision between the two fists lasted for a long time.
After a long time, they both took a step back.
At this moment, the Sect Master of the Empyrean Sword Sect looked at the Demon Master with a smile. He cupped his fists and smiled. “Thank you for showing mercy, Demon Master.”
As he spoke, he brought Chen Feng back to the island.
This scene fell into the eyes of countless cultivators, making them confused and unable to understand what was happening.
“What exactly is going on?”
“Were the two of them competing just now? But why didn’t I feel any aura fluctuations?”
“Also, what did the Empyrean Sword Sect Master mean by thanking the Demon Master for showing mercy?”
“Could it be that the winner has been decided between the two of them?”
“They’re too unpredictable. I thought there would be an unprecedented battle, but I didn’t expect it to end like this.”
“…”
Amidst the discussion of countless voices, the sect master of the Empyrean Sword Sect landed on the island.
He looked at Shen Ran and smiled broadly. “You surprise me every time.”
As he spoke, he also saw Ji Qinglin lying on the ground like a dead dog. However, it was just a quick glance and he did not pay much attention.
Hearing the Sect Master’s words, Shen Ran simply smiled and did not say anything.
Seeing this, the sect master of the Empyrean Sword Sect said again, “Alright, go back.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he left with many disciples of the Empyrean Sword Sect.
As for Shen Ran, he naturally left in the carriage under countless gazes.
Just as they were about to leave, the one-armed elder looked at the Demon Master anxiously.
“Demon Master, are we going to let them leave just like that?”
“Not only did they severely injure Young Master, but they also stole our Heavenly Demon Sect’s supreme treasure.”
The Demon Master shook his head under his black robe and slowly brushed his sleeves.
However, it was this action that made the one-armed old man’s pupils constrict.
At this moment, he saw drops of blood dripping from the Demon Master’s fingertips. Although they quickly evaporated, it proved that the Demon Master was injured.
Without a doubt, he must have been severely injured when he collided with the Empyrean Sword Sect Master.
But he was also puzzled. What had just happened?
The Demon Master did not explain much about this and left with the seriously injured Gu Shujue.
As he left, he thought of the scenes that had often happened a hundred years ago.
In the scenes, he cultivated with a young man. Every day, after cultivating, they would bump fists and collide with spiritual energy and inner breath.
In the past, the other party had always won. This time, the Demon Master had also lost.
Thinking of this, the Demon Master shook his head helplessly.
“Aye.”
As the Demon Master and the others were leaving, the remaining cultivators and some elders also chose to leave.
The saddest among them were the elders of the Zhou and Xu families.
They had thought that they could kill Shen Ran this time, but they did not expect Chen Feng to be so powerful.
It was not easy for the Demon Master to appear, thinking that the situation could change, but the Sect Master of the Empyrean Sword Sect came too.
For a moment, the two elders looked at each other helplessly.
However, they had no choice but to get up and leave with Zhou Ziran and Xu Lingfeng.
Gradually, everyone left.
At this point, the trip to the East Sea Mystic Realm was completely over!
