At Sima Jie's command, hundreds of Purple Origin Crystals were used to activate the "Soul Devouring Purgatory Array," which covered the sky and sealed off the entire Great Rift Valley.
Boom!
As the great formation was activated, it caused the entire Great Rift Valley to tremble violently, deepening the scar on the earth.
Sensing something was wrong, everyone instinctively flew into the sky, heading towards the valley entrance.
They discovered that the places where light should have been was still pitch black, even as they approached the valley entrance.
Some people tried to rush out of the valley, but found that there was a formation barrier blocking their way.
This enormous commotion and earth-shattering change filled those present with shock and anger.
They glared angrily at Sima Jie, demanding answers.
"Sima Jie, what do you mean by this?"
"Sima Jie, when did you set up this formation? Are you trying to poison us? Aren't you afraid of our retaliation?"
"Sima Jie, you'd better think this through. If you really do this, the Sima family won't be able to protect you, and neither will the Dongfang family!"
"Sima Jie, quickly break the great formation. This matter is not yet beyond redemption. Let's pretend nothing happened."
The Sima family members, recovering from the heartache of hundreds of shattered Purple Origin Crystals, looked at their young master with equal bewilderment.
They didn't understand what Sima Jie was up to, so they remained silent for the time being.
Faced with the anger, accusations, and incomprehension of the crowd, Sima Jie revealed a sinister smirk on his indifferent face.
Those present felt a chill run down their spines upon seeing his smile, as if something bad was about to happen.
Sima Jie glanced at the crowd indifferently, then reached out to the person who had first spoken up and questioned him, and that person was immediately drawn over.
This man was a Golden Immortal disciple in the early stage of the Crimson Sun Dao Palace. He was being held hostage by Sima Jie, and his expression was one of extreme fear and panic. He shouted with bluster but no real fear:
"Sima Jie, what are you trying to do? If anything happens to me, the Chiyang Dao Palace will not let you off the hook."
Sima Jie remained unmoved, as if he hadn't heard anything. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, and in the despairing gaze of the Golden Immortal, he pointed a finger at the Golden Immortal's brow.
The Golden Immortal from the Crimson Sun Palace immediately quieted down, his expression becoming wooden, and he stopped struggling.
Sima Jie continued his actions. He flicked his fingers, as if forming some kind of hand seal, and a net-like spiritual light appeared, enveloping the Golden Immortal's head.
After doing all this, he naturally put the golden immortal away. Judging from his actions, it didn't seem like he was treating a person, but rather an object that was useful to him.
His movements were swift and seamless, from the capture to the sealing, as if he had done it countless times, displaying unparalleled skill.
Everyone stared in disbelief at the scene, momentarily stunned.
They still can't believe that Sima Jie actually made a move, especially in front of so many people.
This is tantamount to declaring war on all major powers. Not to mention Sima Jie, even the entire Sima family wouldn't dare to do it.
Not to mention others, even the Sima family members were extremely surprised. What had happened to their young master?
If you're going to do something like this, you should do it secretly. How can you be so brazen about it in front of so many people?
The other disciples of the Crimson Sun Palace, seeing their own people captured, roared angrily at Sima Jie:
"Sima Jie, are you crazy? Release him immediately, or our Chiyang Dao Palace will never let you off the hook."
Sima Jie's smile remained unchanged, still sinister and cold. He was about to make his move on his next target when he heard someone speaking again. He reached out to that person.
The man from the Crimson Sun Palace snorted coldly, trying to dodge. He was a late-stage Golden Immortal, and his cultivation was much higher than his junior brother's.
To his surprise, he also fell victim to the virus.
His body flew uncontrollably toward the direction Sima Jie reached out, and he struggled and cried out.
"Help me quickly, or you'll be next."
His words startled everyone, and several people couldn't help but take action. Together with the five people from the Crimson Sun Palace, there were more than ten people fighting against Sima Jie, and the situation was temporarily deadlocked.
The man was overjoyed, "Don't be afraid, everyone. No matter how strong Sima Jie is, he is only at the peak of the Golden Immortal realm. With so many of us, he can't cause any trouble."
Sima Jie snorted coldly, and an aura of a mid-stage Immortal King pressed down on him.
The crowd gasped in surprise.
"The aura of a Celestial King. Isn't Sima Jie at the peak of the Golden Immortal realm? When did he break through to the Celestial King realm?"
The Sima family was both surprised and delighted. Their young master was indeed extraordinary. He had unknowingly reached the Immortal King realm, truly a source of pride for the Sima family.
These people were all Golden Immortals, and even if they joined forces, they were no match for Sima Jie. The late-stage Golden Immortal cultivator from the Crimson Sun Dao Palace still fell into Sima Jie's hands.
Sima Jie used the same method to deal with it, then coldly looked at the dozen or so people who had just made a move.
Those whose gaze swept over him shivered with fear.
Of all the people who entered this time, they only knew of three Celestial Kings.
Chu Tian of the Senluo Palace, Jiu Xiao of the Jiugongfang, and Dongfang Wuwei of the Dongfang family are all at the early stage of Immortal King, and none of them are present at the moment.
They didn't expect there to be another Sima Jie. This aura doesn't feel like that of an early-stage Immortal King, but rather a mid-stage one. What should they do?
Sima Jie's hunt continued, targeting those who had previously opposed him.
Some disciples of the Sima family felt that Sima Jie was deliberately offending people from various powerful factions, which was unacceptable. Relying on their membership in the Sima family, they advised him:
"Young Master, isn't this a bit inappropriate? Our Sima family probably can't afford to offend so many people. Perhaps we should release them?"
