Chapter 207: The Anger of the Yuan Gate Elders
The Transmission Array Area in the Realm of Demons
This area was a vast expanse of rocky terrain, surrounded by mountains of varying sizes. The entire place was shrouded in an overwhelming murderous aura. At this moment, the rocky grounds were filled with people. All the participants from the various super sects were waiting for the transmission array to activate. There were still a few days left before the array would open.
Xiao Tian and Lin Qingzhu sped towards the area and finally arrived.
"Xiao Tian is here!" "Look, it's Xiao Tian!" "And he's with Lin Qingzhu!"
Seeing Xiao Tian's arrival, the surrounding crowd showed expressions of awe and respect. After all, he was the fierce individual who single-handedly wiped out all the Yuan Gate disciples. People generally accepted the relationship between Xiao Tian and Lin Qingzhu, and many admired Lin Qingzhu for choosing the top young talent in the Eastern Wastelands.
Upon landing, Xiao Tian told the Dao Sect members, "I need to cultivate for a while. Don't go out yet."
With that, he closed his eyes and began absorbing the energy from the spirit seal he obtained from Yuan Cang, aiming to enhance his cultivation further, hoping to contend with the Wheel-Turning Realm.
As Xiao Tian cultivated, his strength surged rapidly. Days passed, and the transmission array activation day arrived, but Xiao Tian's cultivation session had not yet ended.
"It seems the Dao Sect members aren't planning to leave immediately..."
Seeing this, the other super sect members decided to depart, leaving only the Dao Sect members behind.
Outside the Realm of Demons
As the sect competition concluded, news of the events within the Realm of Demons spread quickly. When people learned that all Yuan Gate disciples were annihilated, the entire Eastern Profound Region was shocked. Yuan Gate was the most powerful super sect in the region, and for someone to wipe out all their disciples was a massive affront to their prestige.
Although there was an agreement among the super sects that no one would pursue matters that occurred within the Realm of Demons, Yuan Gate's domineering nature made it unlikely they would let this go. The loss of several hundred elite disciples was a severe blow, even to a sect as powerful as Yuan Gate.
In addition, Xiao Tian's name spread far and wide across the Eastern Profound Region. His past fame was limited to certain areas, but now everyone knew of his exploits. His performance in the Realm of Demons was even more astounding than Dao Sect's Zhou Tong in the past. Many believed that if Xiao Tian continued to grow, he would be on par with Zhou Tong.
Demon City: Yuan Gate's Base
In a spacious hall, the atmosphere was tense and suffocating.
"Bang!"
An elder, his face twisted with rage, slammed the table beside him into pieces. "Dao Sect has gone too far, wiping out all our disciples!"
"Wasn't Ying Xiaoxiao supposed to be Dao Sect's strongest? Where did this Xiao Tian come from?" another elder asked in confusion.
"Elders, you may not know because you've been in seclusion. Xiao Tian was the champion of the Hundred Dynasties Battle and recently defeated a Life Profound Realm elder from Hongya Cave," a Yuan Gate deacon explained cautiously.
"Unexpectedly, besides Yuan Cang, someone else has reached the Life Profound Realm so quickly!" the elder at the head seat mused, before his expression turned grim. "But since he dared to kill our disciples, he cannot be allowed to live. If another Zhou Tong emerges, it will be disastrous."
"I agree. We must eliminate him in advance!" "He must pay with his life. Otherwise, how will Yuan Gate command respect in the future?"
Thus, the six Yuan Gate elders decided to await Xiao Tian's appearance and kill him on sight.
Meanwhile: Dao Sect's Base
The atmosphere here was strange. Although they knew Xiao Tian was powerful, they hadn't expected him to dare to annihilate all Yuan Gate disciples.
Qi Lei spoke slowly, "This situation is exhilarating, but Yuan Gate won't take this lying down."
"It's out of our hands now. We should report this to the sect master," Chen Zhen suggested.
"No need, I'm already here."
A voice sounded, and Ying Xuanzi, dressed in white, appeared.
"Sect Master?" Qi Lei and the others greeted him with a bow.
"Rise," Ying Xuanzi said, waving his hand.
Qi Lei asked, "Sect Master, why are you here so soon?"
Ying Xuanzi replied, "This might be our best opportunity to deal with Yuan Gate!"
"Deal with... Yuan Gate?" Qi Lei and the others were shocked. They had thought Xiao Tian's feat was astonishing, but hearing the sect master speak of dealing with Yuan Gate, the most powerful force in the Eastern Profound Region, was beyond their expectations.
Back in Demon City
As days passed, the atmosphere in Demon City grew increasingly tense. Though the sect competition had ended, the real drama was just beginning. One day, the transmission array in the city's center suddenly lit up brightly. The various forces in the city knew that the Dao Sect disciples and Xiao Tian were about to emerge.
Under many watchful eyes, the Dao Sect disciples appeared on the transmission array.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a terrifying aura erupted from a distance, and over a dozen figures flew towards them. Leading them were six elders, exuding a murderous aura and immense pressure.
One elder, his face dark, shouted, "You ruthless little beast! I've waited long for you. Come back to Yuan Gate and atone for your crimes!"
"The events within the Realm of Demons are not to be pursued by anyone. Does Yuan Gate intend to break the rules set by the super sects?" a cold voice retorted as Qi Lei and the other three appeared in the sky.
Knowing the sect master's plan, they were ready to confront Yuan Gate head-on.
Xiao Tian stepped forward, floating in the air. He cupped his fists towards Qi Lei and the others, "Hall Masters, there's no need for you to intervene. I can handle these Yuan Gate old dogs myself!"
"Arrogant brat! Do you think killing Yuan Cang, a mere Life Profound Realm novice, makes you our equal?" a Yuan Gate elder sneered.
"To be honest, you're nothing but trash!" Xiao Tian said, waving his sleeve. Suddenly, twenty-two dark golden Heavenly Demon Puppets appeared in the sky, emanating an intense killing aura.
