Chapter 335: Old Li Ba

Despite its severe injuries, the Phoenix Sheep managed to break out of the water prison and fly back to its hidden sanctuary.

Still, the man was pursuing it relentlessly.

Upon returning, the Phoenix Sheep immediately kicked out all outsiders and securely sealed the realm. Unless someone of the eighth realm with control over the Heavenly Origin tried to breach it, the hidden realm would remain locked.

Boom boom boom boom!

Four muffled sounds echoed as the disciples of the immortal sects were kicked out of the Phoenix Sheep\'s hidden realm, still bewildered by the sudden turn of events.

Landing outside Phoenix Sheep Mountain, the disciples realized that the entire area had become completely scorched. When the Phoenix Sheep came back earlier, it lost control of its divine fire, reducing everything in its path to ashes.

The devastation was a stark reminder of the immense destruction a seventh realm Eminent One could unleash if left unchecked.

As they regained their footing after being thrown out of the hidden realm, a new figure appeared standing on the scorched ground.

A tall man in a hemp robe, with a wine gourd hanging at his waist, walked over. He frowned as he muttered to himself, "It still escaped in the end. I told you I couldn\'t do it..."

The four disciples of the immortal sects watched him warily, sensing the extraordinary aura emanating from him.

The aura of this Eminent One felt majestic and carried the weight of a mountain. Having just been in a battle, his entire body was still enveloped in qi flames that he had yet to retract.

The pressure was quite intense.

The man glanced at them and asked, "Are you the disciples from the immortal sects here for the trial?"

He hesitated slightly, likely contemplating whether to silence them permanently. His expression conveyed a sense of deliberation, as if he was deciding whether to crush a few bugs.

"What do you intend to do?" Feng Chaoyang raised a General\'s Constellation Orb, sending a dazzling light straight into the sky!

"Oh?" The man looked at him. "Celestial King Sect? This means your sect and mine share the same origin, so I won\'t kill you. Just don\'t tell anyone when I let you go."

As he spoke, he glanced at the others, his eyes immediately revealing a chilling killing intent.

Feng Chaoyang quickly said, "They are also disciples of the Celestial King Sect."

"Do you take me for a fool?" The man sneered. "I know about the four immortal sects doing this trial in this hidden realm."

With that, he pointed at Li Shiyi, who was reaching for a jade talisman.

"Watch out!"

Feng Chaoyang and Chu Liang acted simultaneously!

Feng Chaoyang summoned a General\'s Constellation Orb and a burst of light appeared in front of Li Shiyi, shielding her from the man\'s attack.

Boom—

The General\'s Constellation Orb exploded instantly, shattering with a thunderous blast. This part of the General\'s Supreme Constellation Disc couldn\'t withstand a single finger from the man. But on second thought, it was already impressive that it could block an attack from the seventh realm when it was someone in the fourth realm that had activated it.

Meanwhile, Chu Liang launched his attack, sending the Crimson Executioner sword flying toward the man.

When the man appeared, the Crimson Executioner began to vibrate violently. This person was undoubtedly a mass murderer who had committed countless unspeakable evils!

Swoosh—

The Crimson Executioner cut through the air with an overwhelming murderous aura that was incredibly sharp!

But the man merely raised his hand and caught the blade of the Crimson Executioner.

Boom!

The legendary sword, powerful enough to slay a sixth realm cultivator, was utterly powerless before a seventh-realm expert. Despite its furious vibrations, the Crimson Executioner couldn\'t move at all in the man\'s grasp; justice was utterly useless at this moment.

Clang clang.

The man struck with his palm, shaking off the sword qi from the Crimson Executioner, and casually tossed it aside.

This was not an existence they could fight!

But at that moment, Li Shiyi raised the jade talisman and let out a sharp cry, "Great-Grandpa! Come save me!"

Her cry sounded utterly pitiful, releasing all her suppressed fear and grievances.

The next second, a stern voice came from the other side of the talisman.

"Who dares to touch my great-granddaughter?!"

Crack—

As his voice still echoed, thunder struck overhead, splitting the sky open. An incredibly sharp sword qi descended, followed by a gigantic hand wielding a sword striking down!

An incredibly sharp sword qi descended from the sky, accompanied by a huge hand wielding a sword.

"You little brat, you must be tired of living!" The voice boomed with anger, echoing like thunder.

"Damn! Old Li Ba!" The man, his expression previously lazy, suddenly snapped to attention with his eyes widened in shock. He raised his wine gourd high, and a torrent of black water poured out from it.

The old gourd appeared small, but the black water flowing from it was like a mighty river, roaring and spanning the sky!

As the sword struck down, the black river instantly transformed into a viscous poison, clinging to the sword and continuously corroding the sword qi.

Clang—

When the sword was struck down, it sliced half of the mountain peak with extremely fierce and terrifying force!

Rumble—

After releasing the black water, the man swiftly employed a traversal technique and escaped without hesitation, narrowly evading capture. Had he been a moment slower, the Eminent One, a sword cultivator at the eighth realm, would have traversed the nine provinces and descended upon him!

Thunder continued to rumble, and it seemed as though a gigantic figure was emerging from the crack. Shortly after, a figure floated down from the sky.

He was a short and stout old man, clad in a white robe, with a round face and a long beard, not quite fitting the image of a legendary grandmaster.

But after witnessing that sword strike, everyone present instantly recognized him, and their hearts swelled with awe!

This was the previous sect leader of the Endless Sword Sect, a sect in the Divine Nine. Currently, he served as the Supreme Elder and the inheritor of the Li family\'s Sword Saint legacy...

His name was Li Ba!

"Great-Grandpa!" Li Shiyi ran over, calling out in a way that seemed to convey that she had been wronged.

"Oh, my little Shiyi." Old Li Ba said as he swept his sleeve, hugged Li Shiyi, and quickly patted her shoulder. "I arrived late and gave that scoundrel the chance to escape. But don\'t worry, I\'ll search every corner of the world to catch the villain who dared to harm my great-granddaughter!"

"Okay..." Li Shiyi nodded gently.

Li Ba raised his eyes again and looked at the three young people around. "What about them? They didn\'t bully you, did they?"

Luo Xiaoyong, Feng Chaoyang, and Chu Liang all stood at attention and shook their heads in unison.

Are you kidding me? This is a legendary eighth-realm master of the world! Who would dare not to stand at attention when he glared at them?

"No." Li Shiyi quickly shook her head. "Everyone has been very kind to me, it\'s just that the sudden appearance of that bad guy was too frightening."

Li Ba\'s gaze turned solemn as he looked up at the sky and said, "It seems that the Divine Phoenix King from the West Sea is on the brink of ascension and someone is scheming to awaken it from that state. It’s just those on the brink of ascension plotting against each other. But no matter what, I won’t forget those who dare implicate my great-granddaughter... hmph!"

This cold snort sent a shiver down everyone\'s spine.

Chu Liang looked at this seemingly fragile young girl and made a mental note that she must not be provoked.

When it comes to calling for backup, I have always considered myself quite skilled, but compared to this young girl, I am just an apprentice shaman meeting a grand shaman.

At most, I can summon a seventh-realm master, but she can summon her eighth-realm grandpa at any time!

There are only a few eighth-realm experts in the world. If I could summon Venerable Wen Yuan as easily as a familiar, I would be walking around with an air of dominance. Thinking about it this way, this girl has been acting quite modestly.

"Then I\'ll take her home. You should also return to your respective immortal sects. That person has already fled thousands of li away, so there\'s no need to worry anymore," Li Ba said.

"Thank you, esteemed senior!" the three of them said in unison, bowing.

With the use of Shattering the Void, Li Ba took Li Shiyi and departed, leaving only Luo Xiaoyong and the other two behind.

Luo Xiaoyong said, "If there’s nothing else for me to do here, I\'ll be leaving too. See you next time."

"I..." Feng Chaoyang opened his mouth, about to say something.

He came with three General\'s Constellation Orbs, and now he\'s going back empty-handed. He desperately needed to get an explanation for this matter.

Before he could say anything, Chu Liang took out two General\'s Constellation Orbs and handed them over.

"Brother Feng, these are the valuable items I took from you earlier. I should return them to their rightful owner," Chu Liang said with a smile.

"Ah?" Feng Chaoyang was startled as he said, "It really was you who took them. How did you do it?"

"Just some minor tricks," Chu Liang answered as he shook his head. "You wanted to challenge me earlier, so I tried to make you weaker. Now that our sparring has ended, I dare not keep them with me."

In fact, if it were some ordinary enchanted tools, or slightly valuable pills and talismans, it wouldn\'t matter if Chu Liang took them. Feng Chaoyang wouldn\'t mind too much anyway.

But the two General\'s Constellation Orbs were too valuable.

One of them could actually withstand an attack from a seventh-realm cultivator!

Although that man casually used a divine ability, the fact that an enchanted tool wielded by a fourth-realm cultivator could block it demonstrates the tool\'s considerable strength.

The Celestial King Sect wouldn\'t let it go easily, and Chu Liang wouldn\'t be able to use them conveniently in the future. If discovered, it could risk disrupting the unity between the two sects. Selling them secretly could be an option, but it was unnecessary.

Feng Chaoyang did try to protect everyone earlier, and if Chu Liang still stole from him, he would feel ashamed of himself.

So, after slight deliberation, he decided to return them to Feng Chaoyang.

Feng Chaoyang took the two General\'s Constellation Orbs and stared at Chu Liang for a moment, appearing slightly stunned.

He admitted that if he had obtained Chu Liang\'s valuable items by some means, he wouldn\'t have returned them. Moreover, despite his previous provocations, Chu Liang didn\'t hold any grudges against him. He really...

"Brother Chu..."
