There were more than 500 people seated in the Imperial Holy Land. Yun Che quickly scanned them with his spiritual sense. Although he had been prepared, he was still surprised. Among these 500 people, not counting Xia Yuanba, there were actually 163 emperors!
The remaining nearly four hundred people are all Overlords above level seven!
This is the Huangji Holy Land, which has a history of ten thousand years and is ranked first among the four holy places! !
Just to contend with this one Royal Holy Land, it would probably take the combined efforts of six or seven guardian families in the Illusionary Demon Realm.
In the front row, with the sitting of Master Gu Cang, there were exactly twelve people!
These twelve people were dressed similarly, and each of them had white hair and beards, with whisks in their hands. The aura on their bodies was extremely strong... Especially the three people sitting in the middle. When Yun Che's spiritual sense touched their profound energy, it was as if he had suddenly fallen into an endless ocean, and he could not even see the edge.
Those three people...
“The twelve people in the front row are the twelve True Immortals of our Holy Land.” Noticing the direction of Yun Che’s gaze, Xia Yuanba whispered in his ear, “The three people in the middle are the True Immortals of Pain, Nine Sighs, and Absolute Heart that I mentioned earlier. They are the three Level 10 Emperors of the Imperial Holy Land besides the Saint Emperor!”
Yun Che nodded slightly and said, “For experts of this level, their profound strength is either as violent as thunder or as strong as a mountain. However, the Royal Supreme Holy Land seems to be quite different.”
“That’s because the core of the Imperial Sacred Domain’s profound arts is the ‘holy heart’. The stronger the profound power and the higher the level of the profound arts, the more pure one’s heart and desires will be.” Xia Yuanba replied, and then added in a low voice: “In fact, I am a complete outlier in the Imperial Sacred Domain.”
“Pure and free from desires?” Yun Che thought of the fact that the Imperial Sacred Domain was not missing from the forces that invaded the Illusory Demon Realm a hundred years ago, and smiled calmly, “The other seven emotions and six desires may have faded, but the desire for the profound way is probably not weakened at all, otherwise they would not have come out in full force to participate in this Devil Sword Conference.”
When he was visiting the twelve masters of the Royal Saint Domain, hundreds of mysterious energies from the Royal Saint Domain swept over him. But no one came forward to talk to him, and almost none of the twelve masters and elders of the Saint Domain in the front row turned their heads. Their energy was all focused on the current Demon Sword Conference.
“Brother-in-law, there is one thing I don’t understand.” Xia Yuanba asked in a low voice, “Why did you send Sister Xue’er away?”
He would never believe that Yun Che was thinking about the reputation of the Divine Phoenix Sect.
Yun Che's breathing stagnated, and he closed his eyes slightly, and sent a voice transmission to Xia Yuanba: "Xiao Yun has been missing for three days."
“What…” Xia Yuanba was so shocked that he almost jumped up. He quickly sent a message, “What happened? Who did it?”
"With the strength of Xiao Yun and his wife, and the best protection in the world around them, they were able to abduct Xiao Yun silently... There are not many people in the Profound Sky Continent who can do this."
Xia Yuanba's brows sank: "The Four Sacred Grounds... Could it be the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region!?"
He finally began to understand why Yun Che had been so stubborn in his attitude towards Xuanyuan Wendao.
“About nine out of ten.” Yun Che exhaled lightly, “When we met Xuanyuan Wentian on the way to the Moon Slaughter Devil Cave, the way he looked at me and the words he said made me feel that something was wrong at that time.”
“How ridiculous!” Xia Yuanba clenched his fists, veins popping out on his forehead. “Mighty Heavenly Sword Region is one of the Four Sacred Grounds after all, and they would actually do something like this… Oh? No, why did they take Xiao Yun away? What’s the reason?”
“It is very likely that the fact that I am the son of the Yun family in the Illusory Demon Realm has been exposed. They also know Xiao Yun’s identity. Other than that, I can’t think of any other reason.” Yun Che whispered.
These words made Xia Yuanba realize the seriousness of the situation, and it was by no means ordinary seriousness. He grabbed Yun Che’s arm and said anxiously: “Since it is very likely that you have been exposed, then why are you still staying here! You should know that the Illusory Demon Realm is a place that has been demonized in the Profound Sky Continent. Today is another day when all the heroes in the world have gathered together. If this matter is made public, you will become the target of public criticism!”
"I know, but I can't just abandon Xiao Yun."
This sentence made Xia Yuanba feel empty inside. He immediately realized that with this reason, no matter how much he tried to persuade him, it would be useless.
“Yuan Ba, you don’t need to worry too much.” Yun Che said calmly: “The situation may not be that serious. I have the Ancient Profound Ark with me. As long as the Ancient Profound Ark is not exposed, I can retreat unscathed in any situation… Let’s just wait and see what happens.”
"However, if the situation really reaches the worst point, Yuanba, you must remember to draw a clear line between you and me! Don't forget that the other three holy places are secretly jealous of the Huangji Holy Land for having a disciple like you who possesses the Overlord Divine Vein. Even within the Holy Land, the adopted sons of the Holy Emperor and their supporters must regard you as a thorn in their flesh. If my identity is really revealed in public and you protect me, they will take the opportunity to label you a 'monster'. So at that time, you must not..."
At this moment, Yun Che’s brows suddenly furrowed, and his eyes instantly turned cold… because a cold murderous intent was firmly locked on him.
“Yun Che, give me your life!!”
This sudden roar was like a bolt from the blue, startling all the experts present. On the right side of the Holy Domain, an old man in a green robe flew up and swooped down towards Yun Che like an eagle.
Yun Che had never seen this person before.
The incident happened suddenly, and no one expected that someone would dare to suddenly attack in the venue of the Devil Sword Conference. In addition, the Royal Holy Land was close to his seat. Almost at the moment the roar sounded, the old man in green robes rushed in front of Yun Che, and his profound energy transformed into a sword, preparing to kill him directly... Even if others wanted to stop him, they were unable to do so.
Before Yun Che could move, Xia Yuanba had already leapt up, roared, and punched him.
Boom! !
A circular wave of air exploded in the air, fiercely blasting away a thin cloud in the sky. The two forces of the Sovereign Profound Realm collided in mid-air, and the stalemate lasted for a long time. Xia Yuanba looked sinister, while the green-clothed old man showed a look of shock on his face, as if he couldn't believe that his own strength could be taken on so easily by a junior like Xia Yuanba.
"roll!!"
Xia Yuanba roared, and his already strong arms suddenly became twice as thick, and the force he exerted instantly transformed from a violent storm to a hurricane.
BANG!!
The sword light formed by the green-clothed old man's mysterious energy suddenly shattered, and the whole person was like being hit by a sledgehammer. He flew back dozens of feet before he stopped, and a faint paleness appeared on his face.
Xia Yuanba only stepped back slightly, his eyes as fierce as before, and the aura that burst out of his body made countless profound practitioners present suffocate... and many people were as horrified as the old man in green.
Although Yun Che did not recognize this green-clothed old man, almost everyone in the Four Sacred Grounds knew him.
The elder of Tianwei Sword Region... is one of the top ten elders!
His profound strength cultivation is as strong as the seventh level of the Sovereign Profound Realm!
He was actually knocked away by Xia Yuanba's punch and was firmly at a disadvantage!
Countless eyes with deep shock fell on Xia Yuanba, and some people even gasped. Those who could enter the Sea God Platform were all the top powerhouses in the Profound Sky Continent. Naturally, they had heard that a disciple with the Overlord Divine Vein had appeared in the Royal Extreme Holy Land, and that he had already achieved the status of an Emperor at the age of just over 20.
But I have only heard of it before, and today is the first time I have seen it.
But... this is more than just becoming an emperor! He knocked back a level 7 emperor with one punch. This strength has clearly reached the late stage of the Sovereign Profound Realm!
Even in the four holy places, it is the most pinnacle realm!
He was already so terrifying at the age of twenty, and a hundred years later, it was even more unimaginable! In the similar age group, the other three holy places... let alone being compared, it is estimated that they can't even find someone worthy of carrying his shoes!
The twelve True Immortals of the Imperial Sacred Domain had all turned their heads and nodded silently. There was no surprise on their faces, only faint smiles and admiration... admiration for the fact that Xia Yuanba's profound strength had improved in such a short period of time.
Master Gu Cang slowly stood up and said calmly: "Xuanyuan Jue, as an elder of the Sword Domain, why did you suddenly attack a junior?"
Xuanyuan Jue… Yun Che frowned at this name: It was indeed him!
Xuanyuan Jue, the ninth elder of Tianwei Sword Domain! Xuanyuan Yufeng's biological father, Ling Yun and Ling Jie's grandfather!
“Humph!” After being knocked back by Xia Yuanba’s punch, Xuanyuan Jue’s shock had already surpassed his anger. However, if he retreated at this point, he would lose all face. He stared at Yun Che and cursed angrily, “Not only did this little Yun Che hurt two elders from my Sword Domain, he also tried to kill my beloved daughter. If I don’t cut him into pieces today, I’d be unworthy of being a father!”
Yun Che still sat there, sneering: “Xuanyuan Yufeng has a vicious heart and a vicious act! If it weren’t for the fact that she is Ling Jie’s biological mother, I would not be able to relieve the hatred in my heart even if I killed her ten times! I finally spared her life, and it would be fine if you didn’t thank me, but you actually had the nerve to bark in front of me!”
“You’re courting death!” Yun Che’s words undoubtedly added fuel to the fire, making Xuanyuan Jue even more furious.
"Calm down, both of you."
A peaceful voice sounded from the seat of the Supreme Ocean Palace. Zi Ji stood up slowly with a faint smile on his face: "It is not convenient for outsiders to interfere in the grudges between the two of you. But all the heroes in the world have gathered here for the Demon Sword Conference, so we should not cause trouble. Even if it is not for the Demon Sword Conference, since you are in our Ocean Palace, you are our distinguished guests. We do not want to see any distinguished guests suffer here. Please give me a little face. Even if there is a huge grudge, please solve it after leaving the Ocean Palace."
Being forced back by Xia Yuanba's punch, Xuanyuan Jue had already lost all face and was in a difficult position. Zi Ji's words undoubtedly gave him a way out. Xuanyuan Jue swung his long sleeves and snorted angrily, "Okay! For Mr. Zi's sake, I will let this brat live for a few more days. Yun Che, kid! I heard that your master is the old man Duo Tian, who should have turned into ash long ago, and has the ability to reach the sky and penetrate the earth... Hahahaha, don't say he is the old man Duo Tian, even if he is the king of heaven, I will not be afraid of him! I want to see how he can save your life from my hands then!"
Yun Che: “…”
“Ridiculous!” Xia Yuanba said disdainfully, “If you want to make a move on my brother-in-law, you have to get past me first! It’s a pity that you can’t even beat a junior like me, and yet you shamelessly challenge my brother-in-law’s master. Aren’t you afraid of being laughed at?”
"You!" Xuanyuan Jue's eyes widened and he almost vomited blood.
"Yuanba, don't be rude." Master Gu Cang scolded calmly.
