Chapter 887: The Extreme Path, Venerate Lord Yuan Yi
The sword-wheel sacred image was tremendous and it seemed like it could suppress the nine heavens.
Luo Yunyang still had some energy left over as well as the Great Obliteration Millstone, which was his trump card. However, he had just defeated Great Heavenly Venerate Life Extinguisher mere moments ago.
It could be said that he had suffered considerably for the sake of dealing with Great Heavenly Venerate Life Extinguisher!
His imposing aura had also been completely extinguished by Yan Chijian's attack!
If Yan Chijian hadn't attacked, quite a number of ninth-level Heavenly Venerates would have been willing to negotiate with Luo Yunyang after watching him crush Great Heavenly Venerate Life Extinguisher's body.
This way, their bodies wouldn't suffer too many losses, and they would still be able to gain the stuff they wanted. There wasn't any rule that the immense riches contained within the Rising Sky Feather couldn't be settled through negotiation.
Now, however, Yan Chijian had used the simplest, most direct method to destroy the scenario Luo Yunyang had so painstakingly built up.
Luo Yunyang didn't know Yan Chijie. Yan Chijie's bluntness and domineering style of doing things both infuriated him and made him feel helpless.
He might be able to hold of Yan Chijian, but what about the others?
While these thoughts went through Luo Yunyang's mind, more sacred images appeared within the void. There were sacred images of strange creatures as well as multi-limbed beings that appeared high in the void.
It could be said that every single one of these sacred images couldn't be routed that easily.
Many people felt fear upon seeing this array of sacred images. Even though they knew they could surely gain some benefits if they rushed out now, they didn't dare move while facing the deterrence of these sacred images.
Luo Yunyang, who was on rather good terms with the Rising Sky Feather Sect, came over without caring for his own safety while the Rising Sky Feather Sect was facing a crisis.
However, the Rising Sky Feather Sect wasn't so important that Luo Yunyang would risk his life fighting for it. Upon seeing all the sacred images dominating the sky, Luo Yunyang decided to leave even though he wasn't very pleased.
After all, he hadn't come here to throw away his life.
He turned his gaze to Great Heavenly Venerate Rubble's body and a trace of his spirit consciousness melded into the minds of Great Heavenly Venerate Rubble and the others.
Great Heavenly Venerate Rubble understood Luo Yunyang's intent. He didn't have the slightest complaint about Luo Yunyang. It could be said that Luo Yunyang had already tried his utmost but things had turned out this way because the opponents were too strong.
Just as Great Heavenly Venerate was about to speak, 36 projections appeared in the void.
They were 36 projections of large steles. On every stele were two inscribed words.
Pure Sun, Mysterious Sky, Yin Yang!
When he saw these 36 familiar names, Luo Yunyang had a hunch that these 36 steles represented the 36 Great Cosmoses.
The 36 steles with the inscribed names of the 36 Great Cosmoses formed sacred images. Luo Yunyang didn't know what these 36 sacred images could do. However, he had a feeling that these 36 sky stele sacred images would be extraordinary.
Perhaps they would be a big deal.
As Luo Yunyang was pondering who the arrival was, someone said leisurely, "Hey, hey, hey... All you Rising Sky Feather people, don't even think about leaving!"
The massive sword-wheel that had crashed onto the Rising Sky Feather Sect's mountain gate seemed to have also been affected by the 36 sky steles and slowly moved away.
Great Heavenly Venerate Rubble was astonished when he saw the sky steles that covered the sky. He hadn't held much hope that the Rising Sky Feather Sect would survive this extermination anyway.
However, seeing these 36 sky steles in the air made his last ounce of hope disappear completely.
"Venerate Lord Yuan Yi!" Finally, someone spoke. It wasn't Great Heavenly Venerate Rubble, but Yan Chijian.
Hints of respect and fear could be heard in Yan Chijian's voice when he said these four words.
The person called Venerate Lord Yuan Yu didn't appear. Only a voice appeared above the 36 sky steles.
This voice made the sky tremble!
"Ha ha ha... Yuan Venerate Wanliu, I never expected that you would see this day!" The strong deep voice might have been bewitching at first, but the words he spoke made some people feel displeased.
As Luo Yunyang stared at the 36 sky steles, he could vaguely sense the majestic power within them.
However, the source of this power baffled Luo Yunyang. These powers originated from the 36 Great Cosmoses, so Luo Yunyang couldn't even sense any power from Venerate Lord Yuan Yi himself.
What about Venerate Lord Yuan Yi's power?
As Luo Yunyang wondered about this, Great Heavenly Venerate turned to Luo Yunyang and said solemnly, "Yunyang, you have already given your all by coming to our Rising Sky Feather Sect. The Rising Sky Feather Sect only feels grateful for your arrival."
At this point, Great Heavenly Venerate Rubble's voice wavered ever so slightly. "However, the current circumstances are already out of your league. Venerate Lord Yuan Yi was originally an enemy of my master."
Great Heavenly Venerate Rubble then added, "Back in the day, Venerate Lord Yuan Yi was also an astonishing genius. He and my master were considered two exceptional individuals. However, because he lost to my master once, Venerate Lord Yuan Yi has always been jealous of my master."
There was a trace of disdain in Great Heavenly Venerate Rubble's eyes. "It's a pity that he's still lagging behind. In the process of ascending to a Yuan Venerate, he kept failing to break through the last step. Ultimately, he had no choice but to take the extreme path of a Heavenly Venerate who is a Venerate Lord."
The voice coming from the 36 sky steles rang out once again. "Even if I obliterate your sect, do you think that all those disciples you sent away will be safe?"
"Ha ha ha! You are wrong. Since the Rising Sky Feather Sect has to be destroyed, how can any seeds be left behind and given a chance to one day flourish and return?"
"Furthermore, as your old pal, how could I give you such a chance to be revived? Ha ha ha... Isn't it very considerate of me to bring back all the disciples that you sent away?"
As the word 'considerate' was said, many silhouettes appeared beneath the 36 large sky steles, as if led by some unseen force.
These figures appeared so tiny and insignificant that it seemed as though they could be trampled on at any moment.
Luo Yunyang didn't pay much attention to the silhouettes at the beginning. However, he suddenly became frantic when he recognized a familiar figure.
Dong'er! Standing before him was his beloved younger sister, Luo Dong'er!
Luo Dong'er had entered the Rising Sky Feather Sect and cultivated there after Luo Yunyang's approval. After all, Luo Dong'er would have cultivated on her own very slowly. Thanks to his alliance with the Rising Sky Feather Sect, Luo Dong'er's rate of cultivation would be extremely quick if she got to cultivate in the Rising Sky Feather Sect.
When the Rising Sky Feather Sect had encountered this difficulty, Luo Yunyang had gotten in touch with his sister and found out that the Rising Sky Feather Sect had sent her back to the region of the Milky Way's Human Tribe. He had never imagined that Venerate Lord Yuan Yi would be crazy enough to actually drag his younger sister back.
Beside his sister was a group of young elites from the Milky Way's Human Tribe. Luo Yunyang's heart burned with anger when he saw this group of people.
"I can't leave!" Luo Yunyang met Great Heavenly Venerate Rubble's eyes.
Great Heavenly Venerate Rubble had seen Luo Dong'er too. He too had never imagined that the disciple he had already sent away would actually be forcefully brought back here by Venerate Lord Yuan Yi.
He glanced at Luo Yunyang beside him and said, "Yunyang, don't be too impulsive for the time being. This matter can still be discussed."
He then shouted at Venerate Lord Yuan Yi, "Venerate Lord Yuan Yi, the enmity we have lies between you and the Rising Sky Feather Sect! Luo Dong'er is Luo Yunyang's younger sister and she was only a guest of the Rising Sky Feather Sect. She was never a formal disciple."
"Furthermore, she resides in the domain of the Milky Way's Human Tribe. That is a region under Hong Meng Sacred Hall's jurisdiction. Were you not afraid that you would answer to Hong Meng Sacred Hall by snatching her without an explanation? Release her and do not harm the innocent! If you dare, you can just charge straight over at the Rising Sky Feather Sect!"
Great Heavenly Venerate Rubble spoke in an impassioned tone. Some Rising Sky Feather Sect disciples also chimed in. "Yeah, come at us if you have the guts! Damn it, if it weren't for our Patriarch's demise, would you dare come?"
Those 36 sky steles rotated and countless ripples gathered within the void. A figure appeared where those ripples converged.
This figure had an extremely calm expression. It seemed as though he wasn't the slightest bit angry about the words of Great Heavenly Venerate Rubble and the Rising Sky Feather Sect's disciples.
"I once oversaw the East Region Stronghold for 100,000 years and obtained a Hong Meng Seal. You do know that a Hong Meng Seal can grant me a clean slate for the majority of my wrongdoings, right? Therefore, don't bother using Hong Meng Sacred Hall as a threat. It really isn't of any use." The faint, soft voice had a mocking ring to it.
These mocking words reverberated in the void continuously.
He stared at Luo Yunyang as he said, "You are the Zongzi of Hong Meng Sacred Hall. I can't kill you, but you can't do anything by staying here either. Let me give you a word of advice... Get lost and go back to where you came from! He he... You won't be able to stop me! Today, all the members of the Rising Sky Feather Sect will die!"
Luo Yunyang's expression turned icy when he heard Venerate Lord Yuan Yi's words. Although he knew the odds of victory were extremely low, he could no longer turn back!
