There was no surprise that these two old men and one old woman were probably the truly hidden powerful figures of the Shengdan Sect.
In fact, for every major sect or family, the top combat power shown on the surface was just one aspect of it.
The truly top combat power consisted of those senior figures who were already on the verge of death.
Their cultivation realms were not low. Some of them were injured in their early years and had lost their lifespan, resulting in not being able to live for many years. Some had already reached the end of their lifespan, and some had been stuck at a certain realm for many years without making any progress.
However, these hidden powerful figures all cultivated assiduously, hoping to make a breakthrough and change their fates against the heavens before they died.
The three in front of them were probably the same.
The two old men fixed their eyes on Ye Wushuang, with indignation and killing intent in their eyes.
The old woman stood beside Sheng Tianzhe, took out a pill, and made Sheng Tianzhe swallow it.
“Let me take a look.”
The old woman grabbed Sheng Tianzhe’s palm and then said, “Even you couldn’t resist him. This little fellow at the Ninth Layer of the Return to Origin Realm really seems to be a tough nut to crack.”
“Granny Yin…”
Sheng Tianzhe opened his mouth, and blood flowed out. Covering his chest, he said painfully, “He is the descendant of the Ye Clan!”
Upon hearing this, Granny Yin raised her eyebrows.
Then, Granny Yin sighed and said, “Back then, Sheng Yuncong took a fancy to the devouring bloodline of the Ye Clan in order to increase his lifespan. He joined forces with the Tianji Mansion to destroy the Ye Clan. Now… as you sow, so shall you reap.”
Sheng Yuncong!
He was the previous Sect Master of the Shengdan Sect and Sheng Tianzhe’s father.
The devouring bloodline of the Ye Clan had made a great name for itself within the Qingyun Empire. Back then, Sheng Yuncong had seen the potential of the devouring bloodline and coveted it.
After years of research, they still couldn’t transfer the devouring bloodline. In the end, Sheng Yuncong didn’t get what he wanted and died decades ago.
Sheng Tianzhe opened his mouth as if to say something, but in the end, he didn’t say a word.
Granny Yin couldn’t help but smile bitterly and said, “It wasn’t just your father’s fault. I, Old Man Meng, and Old Man Xie all agreed to it.”
“If we could have transferred the devouring bloodline of the Ye Clan to us old fellows when we destroyed the Ye Clan back then, there wouldn’t be a situation where seven overlords coexisted in the land of Qingzhou.”
Not far away, Old Man Meng and Old Man Xie both nodded.
Old Man Meng, whose figure was withered and slightly fat, snorted coldly, “Anyway, what’s done is done.”
“That little Ye Clan in the Qingyun Empire, if it’s destroyed, it’s destroyed. Now that their descendants have come to seek revenge, we’ll just kill them to eliminate future troubles.”
As Old Man Meng snorted coldly, he clenched his palm, and an ancient bronze cauldron appeared in his palm.
“The Shengqian Cauldron!”
This was another treasure that protected the Shengdan Sect. It was at least as powerful as the Saint Pattern Cauldron.
Old Man Meng snorted. The aura in his body surged like a rolling tide.
As the power surrounded his body, it was as if thousands of troops were galloping.
This kind of imposing manner…
It was infinitely close to the Cave Void Realm.
The peak of the Void Realm!
He was much stronger than Sheng Tianzhe.
Old Man Meng didn’t say a word and charged forward with the cauldron in hand. The aura in his body roared like mountains and seas.
Ye Wushuang, who saw this scene, didn’t change his expression.
He blocked the Tianyan Sword in front of him, and the aura in his body surged out.
Three hundred strands of the Supreme Void Spiritual Sword Qi burst out again.
The state of the small accomplishment of the sword intent condensed.
In an instant, the two figures clashed.
Power burst out, and the rumbling sound never stopped.
The land of the Shengdan Sect once again endured the bombardment and vibration that it couldn’t bear.
“This Ye Wushuang…”
Granny Yin and Old Man Xie looked up and were stunned.
This Ye Wushuang was truly ferocious.
Granny Yin and Old Man Xie both knew Old Man Meng’s strength.
He was really just a step away from the Cave Void Realm.
However, with his lifespan nearly exhausted over the years, Old Man Meng still couldn’t break through that barrier.
But at the peak of the Void Realm, he was already one of the most powerful existences in the land of Qingzhou.
But when facing Ye Wushuang, Old Man Meng didn’t unleash an overwhelming domineering aura because Ye Wushuang was truly not weak.
“A cultivator at the Ninth Layer of the Return to Origin Realm can actually fight against someone at the Void Realm…”
Beside them, Sheng Tianzhe’s face regained some color and couldn’t help but say, “This kid has made a leapfrog change in just one year during the Hundred Kingdoms Martial Assembly and in the Heavenly Gate and Earth Gate.”
Just thinking of this, Sheng Tianzhe felt annoyed.
He really should have killed this kid earlier.
But when Sheng Tianzhe really noticed Ye Wushuang, Ye Wushuang had already gone to the Lingjian Mountain. With Si Yin around, who could kill him?
Boom… rumble…
The intense rumbling sound continued.
Granny Yin then said, “Tell the disciples of the sect to retreat, now.”
“Alright.”
Immediately, several elders of the Shengdan Sect flew over from a distance.
“Sect Master.”
An elder said in horror, “We can’t retreat. Outside the protective formation of our Shengdan Sect, there is a layer of restriction that has trapped all of us here.”
“Except for the disciples below the Celestial Gang Realm who were allowed to leave by Ye Wushuang earlier, no one else can get out of that restriction.”
What!!!
When these words were spoken, the expressions of Granny Yin, Old Man Xie, and Sheng Tianzhe changed drastically.
There was a layer of restriction outside the huge Shengdan Sect?
What kind of powerful figure could do such a thing?
“Could it be that Si Yin has come?”
Granny Yin’s face changed in shock.
If Si Yin made a move, they really had no way to turn the situation around.
But… although Si Yin’s alchemy skills were extraordinary and her strength was powerful, she wasn’t proficient in the art of formations.
Then who could it be?
Who else in the Lingjian Mountain had such means?
At this moment, above the mountains where the Shengdan Sect was located, a figure stood on the peak of a mountain.
“Hehe…”
The figure in the black robe, as if shrouded in darkness, let out a creepy and sinister laugh.
