บท 108: Chapter 108: The Grand Gathering of the Soul Hall!
Within the crowd, several figures treading on air exuded terrifying auras from their entire bodies.
The Sky Serpent Mansion truly deserved its reputation as a top force on the Northwest Continent, incomparable to the Jia Ma Empire. In the Jia Ma Empire, a Dou King was already one of the top ten experts, but here, they were merely small stewards.
Only a Dou Emperor could be considered an Elder here!
Faced with so many powerful figures, there wasn't a shred of fear in the eyes of the Amethyst Winged Lion King. Its entire body was engulfed in a purple flame, standing defiant against the crowd.
At the forefront of the Sky Serpent Mansion was a white-haired elder leaning on a snake-shaped cane. His hunched figure gazed menacingly at the Amethyst Winged Lion King, his pupils suddenly contracting upon sensing both their seventh-tier strength.
When he noticed a chariot behind the two figures, shrouded in an indistinct mist, his heart sank.
Using a seventh-tier magical beast as a mount, even their Sky Serpent Mansion lacked such audacity. Each seventh-tier magical beast had its own pride. Even with their special means of peaceful coexistence with serpent-type magical beasts, they could not force a seventh-tier beast to act as a mount.
The visitors clearly came with ill intentions!
However, as countless people in the city watched, he couldn't disgrace the Sky Serpent Mansion's reputation. What a tricky situation.
The elder quickly made a decision, fixing his gaze on the Amethyst Winged Lion King, and spoke calmly, "I am She Qi, the Grand Elder of the Sky Serpent Mansion. May I ask who you are and why you have come to our Mansion?"
In the sky, the Amethyst Winged Lion King stared coldly at She Qi. "My master has business with your Mansion Lord. Get him out here quickly to receive us!"
"You wish to see the Mansion Lord?" She Qi looked uneasily at the two aggressive beast kings. These were certainly not friendly visitors!
If the two seventh-tier magical beasts dared to cause trouble, he could capture them on the spot. Despite their strength equivalent to two or three-star Dou Emperors, he was a nine-star Dou Emperor and could handle them alone.
However, the presence of that carriage made things different. With a seventh-tier beast as a mount, their background was too mysterious and formidable to easily offend.
"Bring the guests inside, Grand Elder!" Just as She Qi pondered, an ancient voice resounded from afar, falling into everyone's ears.
The powerful Dou Qi within the voice caused many in the city to feel a heavy pressure, some even wobbling unsteadily.
"The Mansion Lord!"
"A Dou Venerate!"
"They even alarmed the Mansion Lord?"
The Amethyst Winged Lion King, struggling against the pressure, exchanged a heavy gaze with the other beast king.
"The Mansion Lord invites you in. Please, come into the city," the Grand Elder of the Sky Serpent Mansion said as he approached.
"Humph—" The Amethyst Winged Lion King, unimpressed by this show of courtesy, snorted coldly, its tone arrogant, "What is your Jade Serpent's status? Is it worthy to claim my master's presence personally? Let him come to invite us himself!"
"Hiss—"
At this, the crowd drew sharp breaths. In their minds, one thought dominated:
They're finished!
The Amethyst Winged Lion King's retort was tantamount to dragging the Sky Serpent Mansion's reputation through the mud. How could the Mansion let this slide?
"You seek death!" She Qi was enraged by the Amethyst Winged Lion King's words. A cold Dou Qi gathered power, transforming into a giant black serpent exuding a bone-chilling coldness.
"Roar—"
As the energy serpent surged forward, the Amethyst Winged Lion King roared, summoning immense fire energy. A pair of flaming wings, each about ten zhang large, condensed behind it.
Wings ablaze with high-temperature purple flames, distorting the air itself.
With a flap, a colossal pillar of purple fire, four to five zhang wide, shot out, colliding with the enormous black serpent.
The smaller Amethyst Winged Lion King mimicked the action, the two resembling copies of each other as they faced the enemy.
Three gigantic figures clashed in mid-air, their collision momentarily freezing space.
"Boom!" A thunderous sound echoed in the clear sky.
The fierce attacks of the three Dou Emperors clashed in the sky, unleashing terrifying energy at their point of impact, causing space itself to ripple.
"Enough!"
As the commotion grew, an enraged voice boomed, an aura waking like a monstrous dragon. The space around the energy clash twisted violently, and dense spatial ripples spread out.
A spatial rift cracked open, absorbing the clashing energies into oblivion.
"Who dares!"
The Amethyst Winged Lion King's attack paused, a sense of danger emerging as it warily eyed the spatial rift, sensing a deadly threat within.
"You're seeking me?"
"Now I'm here. Where is your master? Tell him to come out. Remaining concealed is unbefitting of his status."
A calm voice echoed from the twisted space, where a terrifying green serpent silhouette flickered, revealing a green-clad figure.
This man had a tall, willowy figure, with green hair and beard, and eyes like green gemstones, giving off an ethereal vibe.
Behind him, a serpent phantom exuded a powerful presence, blending with the landscape, his imposing aura far surpassing everyone present.
"It's the Mansion Lord of the Sky Serpent Mansion, the Green Serpent Venerate!"
"He even alarmed a Dou Venerate. This doesn't bode well!"
"The Green Serpent Venerate hasn't appeared for over a decade. Who knows how strong he has become."
The appearance of the Green Serpent Venerate ignited widespread discussion. This legendary figure still had many tales told about him, and for many, he was a beacon on their path of cultivation.
"Today's visit to the Sky Serpent Mansion is for one purpose alone!"
From within the carriage, a calm voice emerged, and a slender hand lifted the curtain. Clad in white, Yun Yi stepped out.
This scene underscored the terrifying force behind him, making the Green Serpent Venerate both secretly relieved and instantly wary.
Seeing their posture, it was clear the visitors weren't friendly!
"What is your business?" The Green Serpent Venerate asked plainly, his sharp, abyss-like eyes causing those he looked at to instinctively glance away.
In the next moment, Yun Yi's words caused all the Sky Serpent Mansion's members to undergo a drastic change in expression.
"I want the Sky Serpent Mansion!"
A stone thrown into a thousand waves.
With Yun Yi's words, the previously bustling city grew eerily silent, and all members of the Sky Serpent Mansion's faces darkened, their eyes flashing with cold intent.
"How dare you! Do you know what you're saying?" In the sky, She Qi's eyes filled with killing intent, ready to attack the two Amethyst Winged Lion Kings at any moment if the Green Serpent Venerate gave the order.
"You're speaking nonsense. Do you know the gravity of your words?"
The Green Serpent Venerate's voice was emotionless, delivered indifferently as he suppressed his anger, while the elders of the Sky Serpent Mansion encircled him, preparing for a fierce fight.
"Ha—" Yun Yi responded with a cold laugh, "Today, the Sky Serpent Mansion has two choices: surrender and live, or resist and die—"
He had initially considered subduing the Sky Serpent Mansion to use as his vanguard to stir chaos in the Northwest Continent. But how he achieved this didn't concern him.
If the Green Serpent Venerate was wise, Yun Yi wouldn't mind an easier time. If not, he wouldn't hesitate to turn everyone in the Sky Serpent Sacred City into flame slaves.
Regardless of the method, the outcome would be the same!
"Arrogant youngster, today I'll capture you first and let your elders come to ransom you!"
The Green Serpent Venerate shouted, reaching out with one hand. The space around Yun Yi distorted, forming a cage meant to imprison him, and a gigantic energy hand enveloped Yun Yi.
"Death Finger!"
Yun Yi remained calm, black flames rising around him, disintegrating the spatial cage and condensing at his finger.
With a light shout, he pointed, and a finger-sized phantom flew out, rapidly expanding to match the size of the energy hand.
Under countless watchful eyes, two terrifying attacks clashed.
"Hmm!"
A humming sound reverberated through the skies, accompanied by terrifying energy waves.
"Ugh—"
Below, some weaker individuals spat blood, and others' eardrums burst, blood flowing from their ears gruesomely.
"Boom!"
When the humming stopped, violent energy ripples swept outward.
"Ugh—"
Yun Yi shuddered and staggered back five steps on the war chariot, a trickle of blood sliding from his lips.
No one noticed that the falling blood transformed into a black flame, scattering in the wind.
Compared to Yun Yi, the Green Serpent Venerate merely wobbled, unharmed.
Seeing Yun Yi, the Green Serpent Venerate's eyes flashed with disbelief. Yun Yi's power was revealed upon first contact.
Nine-star Dou King!
Such strength, confronting a Dou Venerate head-on—unbelievable!
"Youngster, you are impressive, but today you must surrender!" The Green Serpent Venerate's eyes now bore strong killing intent, barely restrained before the public.
The elders of the Sky Serpent Mansion slowly surrounded them, determined to capture both the man and the beasts.
"Hah—" Yun Yi suddenly chuckled coldly, "Curious about my origins?"
"Now, I'll show you!"
"Hm?"
Hearing Yun Yi and seeing his confident demeanor, the Green Serpent Venerate felt a sense of foreboding.
"Let's begin this grand feast, shall we?"
As Yun Yi's words fell, the world plunged into brief silence.
"Jie jie jie, what elegant taste, Young Prince! Attacking the Sky Serpent Mansion, Qing Hai, didn't you have a grudge with that Green Serpent? He's yours!"
Just as the Green Serpent Venerate was about to strike again, dense black fog surged from the horizon, arriving in the sky, accompanied by eerie laughs.
"The old serpent dares strike against the Young Prince? Do you think our Soul Hall is without men?" A thunderous voice echoed, startling many.
Soul Hall!
The Soul Hall's presence sent ripples of fear across the Sky Serpent Empire. If the Soul Hall targeted the Sky Serpent Mansion...
Thinking of this, everyone felt a chill running down their spines!
At this moment, the Green Serpent Venerate's face grew exceedingly grim. This situation was dire.
Thick black fog enveloped the Sky Serpent Sacred City, darkening even the sun.
Moments later, hundreds of figures emerged from the black fog, dozens emitting Dou Emperor auras, led by three formidable elders.
Their presence caused violent spatial ripples.
In the end, it was a chaotic clash with overwhelming energies engulfing the battlefield as the sky turned ominously dark.
