Chapter 524 - 523: The Strong are Revered!

Chapter 524: Chapter 523: The Strong are Revered!

"Young friend, how are you willing to hand over the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Order? Now that it’s just the two of us, feel free to speak frankly."

Zuo Yangming smiled slightly and said in a relaxed tone.

Ye Xuan, calm in demeanor, hands in his pockets, responded coolly, "What do you think I should do to hand over the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Order?"

Instead of giving a direct answer, Ye Xuan countered Zuo Yangming with a question.

Zuo Yangming maintained his composure and suggested quietly, "Lift the three-year pressure on Emperor Immortal Sect?"

Ye Xuan scoffed disdainfully, "You think the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Order is worth only that much?"

Zuo Yangming narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile, "Then perhaps the young friend himself would like to propose a condition for this sovereign to assess."

Ye Xuan shook his head and remained silent.

Zuo Yangming observed Ye Xuan, not understanding what he meant by this.

This young man was unexpectedly calm.

In the presence of him, the Sect Leader of the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect, there was not a trace of timidity. Instead, he gave off the impression of a crafty old fox.

"Lift the three-year pressure and then promise to return three Great Emperor Immortal Skills, and never again move against the Emperor Immortal Sect—how does that sound?"

Zuo Yangming proposed again.

This condition, if made public, would surely shock the entire East Desolation Domain.

Three Great Emperor Immortal Skills—what did that represent?!

One must realize that the Emperor Immortal Sect, with only the publicly known Heavenly God Fierce Fire Scripture, has been repeatedly suppressed.

The battle that shook the Southern Domain half a month ago was essentially because of the Great Emperor Immortal Skills.

Both the Fierce Battle Sect and Qianyuan Cave Heaven sought to gain more benefits from the Emperor Immortal Sect, which is why they chose to ally with the Yunxiao Sect, forming an alliance army of nine powerful forces, to make a move on the Emperor Immortal Sect.

Now, Zuo Yangming immediately offered three Great Emperor Immortal Skills—what terrifying value was this?

Not to mention others, if it were up to Zhou Zihuang or Ning Zongtang, they would have already agreed in their hearts.

The Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect lifting the three-year pressure on the Emperor Immortal Sect meant that the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect would no longer cause trouble for the Emperor Immortal Sect in the future.

Added with Zuo Yangming’s subsequent statement, there would be no more trouble for the Emperor Immortal Sect.

With three Great Emperor Immortal Skills, the Emperor Immortal Sect would inevitably rise unstoppably. Coupled with no interference from the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect, the Sect would rise swiftly in the future.

Recreating the glory of the past would not be impossible.

It could be said that Zuo Yangming’s proposal held immense value.

Who would have thought that the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Order crafted by Ye Xuan himself would be of such great value?

But in Zuo Yangming’s eyes, such value seemed only fitting for the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Order.

As for the specifics, no one knew.

After naming his price, Zuo Yangming kept his gaze fixed on Ye Xuan, hoping to see more changes in his expression.

In this world, there should be no one who would refuse the benefits of three Great Emperor Immortal Skills.

After all, Great Emperor Immortal Skills were created by a Great Emperor, possessing terrifying power beyond ordinary cultivation techniques.

This is why Great Emperor Immortal Skills had always been the most precious of techniques.

Their value was priceless!

However, what Zuo Yangming didn’t expect was that the young man in the black robe remained devoid of any emotional change, as if he was unaware of the significance of the Great Emperor Immortal Skills.

"In addition, ten spirit ore mines," Zuo Yangming slowly upped the ante.

Ye Xuan still maintained his composure.

"Plus ten Medicine Fields," Zuo Yangming added once more.

Ye Xuan still did not respond.

Zuo Yangming’s eyes narrowed as he continued, "Ten Melting Furnaces, ten supreme Artifact Refining Techniques, ten Holy Rank Spirit Array Diagrams, ten Holy Rank Spiritual Pattern Pens, ..."

One by one, treasures of incomparable value were slowly listed off by Zuo Yangming.

Yet, Ye Xuan still gave no response.

This made Zuo Yangming stop and frown, "My young friend, please say something."

Ye Xuan gave Zuo Yangming a sidelong glance and said indifferently, "Firstly, this so-called three-year pressure you mentioned should never have existed in the first place; furthermore, what right does your Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect have to move against the Emperor Immortal Sect?"

"As for the three Great Emperor Immortal Skills, as you said, they are to be returned, not given, which means they inherently belong to the Emperor Immortal Sect."

"As for those things you mentioned later, they deserve even less attention."

"You, from the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect, must have a clearer idea than I do about how much you took and how much loss you’ve caused the Emperor Immortal Sect in the past."

"So..."

"Don’t think those conditions you mentioned are actual conditions; they are all things that rightfully belong to the Emperor Immortal Sect."

"Understand?"

Ye Xuan’s words filled Zuo Yangming with barely concealed anger, and by the time Ye Xuan had finished speaking, Zuo Yangming nearly burst out in a rage-fueled laugh.

He, the Sect Leader of the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect, had never had to talk down to anyone. Who had he ever esteemed so highly?

By his standards, those concessions he had just made were already the utmost limit.

This Ye Xuan again and again had displeased him, and he was someone who could kill a person.

Despite the hint of murderous intent in his heart, Zuo Yangming still spoke with a faint smile, "Young friend, do you know what the essence of this world is?"

The corners of Ye Xuan’s mouth curled slightly, a mocking look flashed in his eyes as he drawled, "Then why don’t you enlighten me, I really don’t quite understand."

Zuo Yangming’s smile faded, and suddenly a terrifying, boundless oppressive force emanated from him.

Boom——

The next moment, a boundless and vast Purgatory World burst forth behind Zuo Yangming, within which gods and demons roared, fierce beasts howled, and the sun, moon, and stars were falling.

That Purgatory World seemed to envelop the entire vast white world in an instant, suppressing everything.

The terrifying aura was like falling into hell!

At this moment, a living, breathing Purgatory World was presented right before Ye Xuan.

Among the roars of gods and demons, they fought ceaselessly with those huge fierce beasts whose heads touched the sky and feet trod the earth.

When they clashed, the whole world trembled.

The mere leakage of the aura from these gods and demons could easily slaughter Heavenly Humans; they were extremely terrifying.

This Purgatory World seemed not at all false, but truly existed!

The shock it brought to people was incomparable!

Within it, Ye Xuan seemed like an ant that was exceedingly tiny.

Boom!

While the gods, demons, and fierce beasts were fighting, Zuo Yangming slightly lifted his hand, and with a gentle tap in the void, everything changed.

Endless gods and demons, fierce beasts, all screamed miserably, turning into dust.

Together with the entire boundless Purgatory World, they were dissolving continuously.

Eventually, it turned into smoke.

The power of a single finger was terrifying to this extent.

What a terrifying power this was!

This was the Sect Leader of the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect, Zuo Yangming!

His oppressive force was like a mighty prison!

Suppressing the ages.

"There are many beings in this world that are far more powerful than you can imagine, but there are also stronger existences that can easily obliterate them," Zuo Yangming said matter-of-factly, with a smile, "Just like those gods, demons, and fierce beasts you just saw, any one of them could sweep across the entire Southern Domain, turning it into a hell on earth."

"And I can easily kill these existences."

"In this world, there are only four words to the law—"

"Might!"

"Makes!"

"Right!"

"Respected!"

The last four words resounded like thunder, as if countless heavenly tribulations were descending simultaneously.

They were shocking to the core.

Unfortunately, while Zuo Yangming was speaking, Ye Xuan maintained his calm, and even...

Yawned?!

"Are you done talking?" Ye Xuan smacked his lips and glanced at Zuo Yangming.

Zuo Yangming’s eyes narrowed into slits, a thick murderous intent flashing through them.

It had been many years since he encountered someone he so wanted to kill.

This youth in front of him had completely roused Zuo Yangming’s desire to kill.

"Do you still not understand my meaning?" Zuo Yangming said in a deep voice.

He had said so much, why did it feel like playing the lute to a cow?

"You mean that because you can easily kill me, I should just listen to you, right?" Ye Xuan retorted.

"Otherwise?" Zuo Yangming said coldly.

At that moment, Zuo Yangming’s body burst forth with an infinite, majestic oppressive force that shook heaven and earth.

He felt his temper was really too good and saw the need to let this fellow know what true terror in the world means!

Unfortunately, Ye Xuan seemed to hear nothing, calmly saying, "Whatever principles you have, they don’t work with me, Ye Xuan."

"I could kill you as easily as flipping my hand."

"Believe it or not?"

Ye Xuan’s mouth curled up slightly, a trace of cold severity flashing across his eyes.
