Chapter 670: Chapter 671: Just Passing By

In the third area of Wanzang Mountain, lies a world where ice and snow intertwine—it is the Snow Prison World, the very gate to the Hundred Saints Cemetery!

Once here, it is equivalent to entering the true Wanzang Mountain, where opportunities for fortune and transformation abound, yet danger and chance coexist.

The Four Great Imperial Clans’ Chu family and Yu family are currently in a standoff with Demon Gate, the tension palpable in the air.

To say Demon Gate, in fact, refers to just one person!

In front of the Chu and Yu families stood a callous man, carrying a black blade on his back and exuding an aura as cold as an iceberg, with many disciples of the Demon Gate keeping a safe distance, daring only to watch from afar.

This man was none other than the top genius of Demon Gate—Lin Rui!

Reputed to be the almost Saint Heir of Demon Gate!

He was immensely talented, powerful, ruthless, and ferocious, to the extent that even many of the Ninth Grade warriors of Demon Gate did not dare to provoke him!

Rumor had it that Lin Rui’s brother was also one of the nine Saint Heirs of Demon Gate!

"This is the only gateway to the final Hundred Saints Cemetery; it’s time for you of the Four Great Imperial Clans to stop here," Lin Rui spoke indifferently, his voice calm yet carrying an indomitable aura.

"Heh, Lin Rui, does Wanzang Mountain belong to your family?"

"Exactly, who says we must follow whatever you dictate?" the leaders of the Chu and Yu families, Chu Feng and Yu Yao, both spoke up in dissatisfaction.

"I won’t allow you to enter the Hundred Saints Cemetery and gain the inheritance of great powers," Lin Rui declared with unstoppable conviction.

"Arrogant!" Chu Feng sneered coldly, his body bursting with an astonishing presence, evidently that of an Eighth Grade warrior.

Having entered Wanzang Mountain, he too had encountered an opportunity, which had allowed his cultivation to break through to the Eighth Grade warrior level.

"Fire Flame Blade Technique!" Chu Feng erupted, wielding his long blade enveloped in a wisp of flame.

"Chu Feng is making his move!"

"Isn’t Chu Feng the number one genius of the Chu family? And now that he’s an Eighth Grade warrior, he should qualify to challenge Lin Rui, right?" the members of the various imperial clans watched Chu Feng with hopeful eyes.

But just as Chu Feng was about to reach Lin Rui, Lin Rui moved swiftly.

Lin Rui merely swung out a palm, as thunderous as a tiger’s roar, filled with terrifying might!

Thump!

A dull sound echoed, as Chu Feng staggered backward, coughing out a mouthful of fresh blood, his complexion deathly pale.

"My God, Chu Feng has been defeated!"

"Unable to withstand a single palm from Lin Rui!"

"That’s too exaggerated!"

Upon witnessing this, Yu Yao, the genius of the Yu family, picked up a longsword, her eyes brimming with a fighting spirit as she said, "Yu family’s Yu Yao—asks for guidance!"

"It’s the young miss of the Yu family, Yu Yao!"

"Yu Yao is the only female genius among the Four Great Imperial Clans!"

"And Yu Yao is also an Eighth Grade warrior!"

Yu Yao adjusted her state of readiness, focusing all her energy into the longsword in her hand, and launched an attack.

"Yu family Swordsmanship!"

Lin Rui’s expression remained nonchalant, undisturbed as he threw a punch, the sound like a ferocious beast roaring, packed with dreadful power.

Spurt!

Yu Yao was sent flying, her sword slipping from her grasp, and she spat out blood.

"Young miss!"

"Miss, how are you?" more than ten Yu family disciples rushed to support Yu Yao.

"Cough, cough... This Lin Rui is too terrifying; I’m nowhere near his match!" Yu Yao said, her face filled with fear.

At this moment, with both the Chu family’s genius Chu Feng and Yu Yao defeated, all members of the two great imperial clans felt immense pressure weighing down on them.

"Heh, are all of you from the Four Great Imperial Clans useless?"

"None of you can even take a single palm from Elder Brother Lin Rui?" nearly a hundred Demon Gate disciples jeered.

Just then, an icy voice sounded through the air.

"Lin Rui, step aside!"

Who?

Everyone turned their heads to see a man in red approaching, with a Fire Jiao Spear strapped to his back and an overpowering aura emanating from him, followed by a dozen or so people.

"Gu Tong!"

"Brother Gu Tong!" both Chu Feng and Yu Yao’s eyes lit up with excitement.

The newcomer was none other than the strongest genius from the Four Great Imperial Clans—Gu Tong!

Seeing Gu Tong, the people from the two great clans felt as if they had seen their savior.

The Demon Gate disciples who had been mocking earlier now wore solemn expressions upon seeing Gu Tong, not daring to act rashly.

Indeed, as the strongest genius among the Four Great Imperial Clans, Gu Tong possessed a strength that truly inspired fear.

From childhood, he had shown a talent far surpassing that of his peers. The Gu Clan had decided early on that he would be the successor, pouring countless heavenly materials, earthly treasures, and massive resources into him!

Moreover, Gu Tong had even taken three pseudo-Saint-level powerhouses as his mentors!

The three pseudo-Saint-level teachers all gave Gu Tong the same evaluation!

Unmatched at the same level!

Destined to step into the pseudo-Saint realm in the future!

Though crowned with the title of prodigy, Gu Tong now felt immense pressure.

"You’re Gu Tong?" Lin Rui’s piercing gaze rested on Gu Tong.

"Step aside!" Gu Tong said icily.

"If you want me to step aside, you’ll have to show me if you’re capable enough," Lin Rui replied indifferently.

"All of you, back off!" Gu Tong ordered.

"Yes!" Chu Feng, Yu Yao, and the others retreated one after another, clearing a space for Gu Tong.

The nearly hundred disciples of the Demon Sect behind Lin Rui were even more intuitive, taking the initiative to leave.

"Ha!" With a furious shout, Gu Tong suddenly erupted with the aura of a peak Ninth Grade Battle Emperor, sweeping across the field and stirring up wind and clouds.

"Hiss, it’s a peak Ninth Grade Battle Emperor!"

"Not for nothing is Big Brother Gu Tong the number one talent among the four great Emperor Clans!" exclaimed the people from several Emperor Clans, faces alight with excitement.

Lin Rui was by no means weak, as he too erupted with the aura of a peak Ninth Grade Battle Emperor!

Both prodigies were of the same level, one ranked first among the four great Emperor Clans, and the other a prospective Saint Heir of the Demon Sect!

Their confrontation was definitely like the clash of a needle against wheat awn!

Gu Tong slowly pulled out his weapon from behind, a Fire Jiao Spear, covered with dragon patterns and forged from a peak Battle Emperor Jiao dragon, invincible and possessing terrifying power.

"It’s Big Brother Gu Tong’s Fire Jiao Spear, which once drew the blood of a Ninth Grade Battle Emperor!"

"With Big Brother Gu Tong’s strength, combined with the Fire Jiao Spear, he is near invincible!" said Chu Feng, Yu Yao, and the others, full of anticipation.

In contrast, Lin Rui also slowly drew out a black blade from his body, crafted from mysterious materials and covered with complex and profound patterns, emitting a terrifying aura of slaughter. This was undoubtedly a top-tier weapon!

Gu Tong was the first to make a move, vanishing from his original spot in an instant, the sound of his spear already audible despite him not yet arriving.

"Fire Jiao Spear Technique!"

Gu Tong thrust his spear towards Lin Rui, his speed like thunder, and with the Fire Jiao Spear’s power, this move was enough to catch a Ninth Grade Battle Emperor off guard!

Lin Rui, battle-hardened, remained calm and swung his blade.

"Dark Tiger Slash!"

This was an extremely terrifying swordsmanship technique, which could even pose a risk of injury to a Ninth Grade Battle Emperor, let alone a peak Eighth Grade Battle Emperor.

Boom!

The two figures collided with intense force, and their terrifying powers clashed, instantly covering the area with a frightening shockwave that made many in the crowd stumble backward!

"This is terrifying!"

"Is this the clash between two top-tier prodigies?"

"It feels like a duel between two Ninth Grade Battle Emperors!"

Both the four great Emperor Clans and the Demon Sect were astounded by the strengths of Gu Tong and Lin Rui!

In their first exchange, there was no victor.

"You are strong, the strongest opponent I have met in my life!" Gu Tong said gravely, offering his high praise.

"I thought the four great Emperor Clans had declined until I saw the rise of the clans in you," Lin Rui also gave his high appraisal.

With Gu Tong’s strength, it was definitely possible to rejuvenate the four great Emperor Clans!

"Four great Emperor Clans, fight me!" Gu Tong called out in a low voice, brandishing his spear and charging again.

"Kill!"

"Kill them!" Chu Feng, Yu Yao, and the others led their members toward Lin Rui.

"Demons, assist me in battle!" Lin Rui roared, leading the charge with nearly a hundred Demon Sect disciples following suit.

The battle was extreme and casualties appeared quickly!

Although the four great Emperor Clans had Gu Tong, Chu Feng, and Yu Yao, three Eighth Grade Battle Emperor prodigies, the Demon Sect was not to be outdone, boasting two Eighth Grade Battle Emperor powerhouses and an absolute advantage in numbers!

"We can’t go on like this—the Demon Sect has too many people!"

"If we continue, we’ll all die!" said Chu Feng, Yu Yao, and the others with grim expressions.

"Hold on, it’s not looking great for the Demon Sect, either!" Gu Tong said.

Just then, Ye Wudao and others strolled over, talking and laughing.

In that moment, everyone turned to look.

"Sorry everyone, please continue fighting, I’m just passing through!" Ye Wudao said with a smile.
