Chapter 275: Shaken
That’s right!
How could they guarantee the safety of the things in their hands when the great formation was gone?
Many of the formations in the sect’s cultivation methods were attached to the great formation.
If the great formation was destroyed, those small formations would lose their buffs and they would break if they were attacked by experts.
“Who dares to attack Xuantian Sect now?”
“Sigh! I’m worried that some of the sect’s deacons and disciples will s.n.a.t.c.h our things.”
“Don’t even think about it. I heard that the sect has captured quite a few people this time. That group of black sheep has all been captured.”
“I feel that these things should become a part of one’s own strength so that they won’t be easily stolen by others.”
“Without the great formation, the restrictions in our cave dwellings were only to prevent a gentleman from harming a villain.”
He didn’t believe it!
Especially since his senior and junior brothers were all holding precious treasures in their hands, his heart was filled with worry.
Senior brother Jin Wen picked up the bag and went straight to his cave abode.
“Sigh! There are so many good things on Mount Eternal. I’m so anxious to see them lying there unclaimed!”
One of the four water ripples wailed.
As he spoke, this senior brother leaned against the wall and started crying.
“This senior brother is so anxious that he’s crying!”
“There are so many good things on Mount Eternal. It’s all ruined just by looking at them. I’ve never seen so many good treasures placed in front of me in my entire life. I’m just looking at them, but I can’t get them. If it were me, I would cry too!”
“There’s no need for it to be you. Think about it carefully. Those Virtual Realm demon pills that the chief disciples had lost, or even the treasures that the True Realm Beasts had stored for many years. Think about it, those are resources! Any one of them can make the prodigies in the clan appear one after another.”
Heartbroken!
Giving away something that was within reach.
The more he thought about it, the more heartbroken he became.
“I… Wait a moment. I need to cry for a while!”
“My poor brothers, if they had such a treasure back then, they wouldn’t have died so tragically! Boohoo!”
Soon, a strange scene appeared at the entrance of the Xuantian Sect.
Many disciples carried large bags on their backs as they supported themselves against the mountain gate, wailing loudly.
News of the Demon Clan of Mount Eternal attacking the Xuantian Sect but was being killed by the ancestor of the Xuantian Sect quickly spread throughout the s.h.i.+ning Heaven Territory.
Then, it spread to other regions.
The Demon Clan was shaken!
The Human Clan was shaken!
The entire world was shaken.
Many demons could not sleep through the night. They could not believe the result, so they sent out their spies one after another.
The spies repeatedly confirmed that it was true.
Some still couldn’t believe it. They thought that the spies were reporting rumors.
However, the Demon Clan that escaped from Mount Eternal immediately came to take refuge and this made the Demon Clan had no choice but to believe it.
In the s.h.i.+ning Heaven Territory, the eternal demons of Mount Eternal had been exterminated.
All the demons of Mount Eternal were wiped out.
Shock.
“The world is about to change!”
Under the leaders.h.i.+p of the Xuantian Sect, the Demon Clans that remained on Mount Eternal had no way to survive.
The entire Mount Eternal became the possession of the Xuantian Sect.
What angered the Demon Clans was that not only did the Xuantian Sect disciples seized this place, they also packed up all the resources and transported them to the Xuantian Sect.
Those resources were acc.u.mulated by the Demon Clans over the years.
“Scoundrels! Those belonged to us, how dare they?”
The atmosphere!
But there was nothing they could do.
“Revenge. I want revenge for the Ape Clan!”
In a cave, an old ape covered in golden fur roared angrily.
“Ancestor, calm down.”
…
After learning about the process of the destruction of Mount Eternal, the demons fell silent again.
“That’s impossible! Those ancestors of Mount Eternal were already at the middle stage of the Semi-G.o.d Realm before they died. Even a warrior at the later stage of the Semi-G.o.d Realm would have to be careful when surrounded by four Semi-G.o.d Realm experts. How could they be killed so easily?”
“So, that ancestor hiding in the Xuantian Sect might be the one who survived the ancient legends!”
“That’s impossible! No one can live for so long! Birth, aging, illness, and death are the natural laws. There couldn’t be a heaven-defying person who successfully defied the natural laws.”
“If it’s not that person, then who was it?”
…
A certain city’s restaurant had been full for the past two days.
In a world where news needed to be spread by word of mouth, the restaurant had become a place for warriors to gather the world’s information and chat when they were bored.
It was fine now. He could express his opinions and wait for others to follow and interact with him.
In a corner of the restaurant, a young man with crippled legs sat cross-legged.
It was Wei Yang.
After he escaped, he needed to know what was going on outside these days.
“It turns out that the Xuantian Sect has a Semi-G.o.d Realm warrior!”
“I’m afraid it’s not as simple as a Semi-G.o.d Realm warrior. I heard that Mount Eternal sent four ancestors who were in eternal sleep to attack an ancestor but they were all killed instantly.”
“Hiss.”
“The Xuantian Sect is going to rise up!”
“I don’t think so. The Xuantian Sect is too weak. One ancestor will not be enough. Besides, many ancestors were in eternal sleep among the Phoenix and Dragon Clans.”
“Indeed. In comparison, the Xuantian Sect is indeed too weak.”
“I heard that many traitors in the Xuantian Sect will be publicly punished in half a month. There were two elders from the sect! Under such circ.u.mstances, the Xuantian Sect is still alive.”
“I don’t understand. The two elders were doing fine in the Xuantian Sect. Regardless of cultivation achievement or status, they were already at their peak. Why would they betray the sect?”
“I couldn’t understand either. Did they abandon the sect and become orcs? Would they even get such a high status?”
“Traitors don’t have enough internal energy and they would often look for external forces,” Wei Yang said.
“Oh? That makes sense, but why would they choose to betray? You haven’t explained it clearly.”
“Traitors do it for the fame and profit. When a human traitor from the Xuantian Sect colludes with the demons, he will get half of the resources.”
“Especially when the reward for selling the secrets of the Xuantian Sect was abundant.”
“How do you think these two elders became elders? Where did their strength come from? But once they set foot on this path, there’s no turning back,” Wei Yang said indifferently.
The world was just so cruel.
Humans were being oppressed by the Demon Clans and orcs, and even a little bit of resources had to be fought for with their lives.
If there was a chance to easily obtain many resources, who would let it slip?
The traitors managed to grow quickly and attained high positions using these resources.
“This…”
Everyone in the restaurant thought that it was true.
The profit from the betrayal was too great.
“Sigh! The days for us humans are getting more and more difficult.”
“What are you afraid of? Big waves wash away the sand! When the remaining humans no longer hold grudges, it will be our chance to turn the tables.”
Wei Yang took a sip of wine.
He didn’t say this, but Li Mu had said it casually back then.
Li Mu was the person he wors.h.i.+pped the most, and he was also the light in his life. His life was no longer dark.
“Yes! Brother, you are right, let me toast you,” the warrior beside him raised his wine cup and said.
“Here’s a toast to you as well. Humans will not be beaten down.”
“Unfortunately, there are too few prodigies among humans, and we don’t have enough talent. There’s that ancestor of the Xuantian Sect, and the other experts added together are not even a branch of the Demon Clan.”
Speaking of this, all the humans lowered their heads.
There were not many humans on the Continent and even fewer prodigies.
The worst thing was that there were even fewer resources.
Without resources, prodigies could not grow.
Many prodigies even died early due to the harsh living environment.
Helpless!
“I am going to check out how the Xuantian Sect is going to deal with the traitors. Is there anyone else who’s on the same path?”
“These scoundrels, I want to see how they die!”
…
Everyone was furious and helpless.
“Brother, are you going?”
Wei Yang was stunned for a moment and shook his head, “I’m… Not sure!”
After escaping for so many years, he was already used to being alone.
“Come on! Let’s go and take a look together!”
The middle-aged man at the next table kept inviting him.
“Alright!”
