Chapter 1129: A New Destination!
All the recent events were triggered by that young man and the Overlord Sect!
Now, everyone suddenly realizes that the previously unknown Overlord Sect has become quite powerful. No one dares to underestimate them anymore!
Especially their strongest member, Lifetaken Yama Xi Wuqing, who has attained the Seventh Grade of the Yuan Emperor Realm and is capable of facing the half-step Yuan Zong Realm without disadvantage!
Most significantly, the Fantastic Gate Soul Realm that serves as a counterbalance to the Tiangang Sect was very likely created by him!
If such an individual were an independent cultivator, even the three major first-rate powers would compete fiercely to recruit him!
As time elapsed, the reputation of Su Yi, Xi Wuqing, and the Overlord Sect spread swiftly, not only within the Chaos Realm but also across the six continents, three states, and one sea, where their legends began to circulate.
Among these regions, the Central Region was the most vibrant and magnificent in terms of propagating these legends.
After various forces like the Sacred Mountain, the Divine Sword School, and the Yutian Palace heard about this, their reactions varied greatly, with some delighted and others infuriated.
In a vast and majestic mountain range somewhere in the Chaos Realm, an endless blood-red mist envelops the area.
When sunlight penetrates this mist and reaches the mountains, it transforms into a crimson light, making the entire space appear like a place of bloodshed and terror, extremely eerie!
Wu Jiuyou stands atop a towering peak, gazing into the distance, with an incredibly cold look in his eyes.
“What a formidable Su Yi, I truly underestimated you!”
Wu Jiuyou’s eyes were cold, with a glint of hatred gleaming in them.
He had heard the rumors from outside, and after learning that the Tiangang Sect had been defeated by Su Yi, his resentment grew stronger for no apparent reason.
“Swish…”
Suddenly, a flash of light appeared on the mountain peak, and an elderly figure materialized beside Wu Jiuyou.
“Elder Bi!”
Seeing this old man, it was Elder Bi who had led the team at the previous alliance meeting. Wu Jiuyou nodded in greeting upon seeing him.
“Have you heard about that youth Su Yi?”
After Elder Bi arrived, he immediately inquired, “It’s about time we discover what that item he obtained actually is!”
Wu Jiuyou and Elder Bi have always coveted the Item Spirit Beast that Su Yi acquired in the Zhao Spirit Secret Realm and wanted to obtain it for themselves.
At that time, to achieve this goal, Elder Bi even planned to entrap Su Yi, hoping to subdue him with assistance from the Tiangang Sect.
However, they all underestimated that youth too greatly, and ultimately, he managed to escape successfully.
With representatives from Cangyun Temple and Nine Star Valley present, Elder Bi couldn’t boast about it and dared not mention Su Yi obtaining a powerful artifact.
“Whatever it is, it’s at least equivalent to a Magical Tool!”
Wu Jiuyou contemplated for a moment before stating this.
An object possessing an Item Spirit is undoubtedly extraordinary; even if it is classified as a Magical Tool, it cannot be compared to an ordinary Dharma Tool.
“I’ll personally handle this matter. Let’s find an opportunity to eliminate that youth! He possesses more than one treasure, and there’s a peculiar wooden box that even the Sacred Mountain seeks to acquire.”
There was a flash of murderous intent in Elder Bi’s words, and he exuded a formidable aura.
They had attempted to pursue Su Yi and his companions when they departed from the secret realm.
But perhaps they took an incorrect route and failed to catch up in the end.
“The Overlord Sect is quite powerful, especially Xi Wuqing. Elder Bi, are you confident in taking action? If not, it might be preferable to report this to the sect master. I’m certain he would also be interested in that artifact!”
Wu Jiuyou raised an eyebrow and spoke directly, without any courtesy toward Elder Bi.
After all, Wu Jiuyou was the premier talent of the Blood Sun Sect, with superior status, and wasn’t obligated to show much deference to Elder Bi.
Previously, they had maintained politeness and respect because they needed to rely on each other outside the secret realm.
“Um…”
Elder Bi was startled but didn’t elaborate further.
Given his own capabilities, he indeed couldn’t contend with Xi Wuqing, particularly when the latter could establish the Fantastic Gate Soul Realm.
“Elder Bi, please proceed. I will go and meet with the leader first!”
After saying this, Wu Jiuyou departed without paying much attention to Elder Bi.
This left Elder Bi’s expression extremely displeased. Even if the junior’s position was superior, it remained disrespectful to behave this way before him, which made him quite dissatisfied.
“Not even able to ascend the Nie Long Platform, yet still has the audacity to seek out the leader!”
Elder Bi couldn’t help but sneer. He could discern that Wu Jiuyou’s sole objective was to eliminate Su Yi.
Because, considering the opponent’s strength, it would be impossible for him to handle that young man independently.
Therefore, he required assistance from someone more powerful.
“Since that’s the case, I wish you good fortune!”
Finally, Elder Bi snorted coldly, leapt into the air, and vanished from the mountaintop.
…
Su Yi and his companions hastened back, not returning to their previous resting location, but instead going back to where Fengjia Village used to be.
Here, under Nangong Ningyue’s care, the appearance had completely transformed.
“Not bad, now it truly resembles what a sect should look like!”
Su Yi and the others descended from the void and observed before them a towering rock with the words “Overlord Sect” inscribed upon it, appearing quite impressive.
The rock stood to one side, and directly ahead was a path leading inward.
As they proceeded, they noticed that the original village dwellings had all been renovated, converted into several grand halls, with the remaining structures still serving as living quarters.
The appearance of Fengjia Village had completely changed from before; it previously had a rural atmosphere, but now it possessed a somewhat grand and elegant ambiance.
“There hasn’t been sufficient time; I haven’t been able to completely transform this place!”
Nangong Ningyue stood before Su Yi and indicated different areas, saying, “Master, look, that location is suitable for constructing a grand meeting hall, and that area can be completely leveled for a martial arts arena! Those mountain peaks over there can also be developed as secluded training grounds! Actually, there’s ample space here for us to expand and demonstrate our capabilities!”
Each time Nangong Ningyue pointed in a direction, Su Yi observed as well.
He realized that this woman possessed keen insight, and her proposed plans aligned perfectly with Su Yi’s thoughts.
Moreover, her ability to manage and guide people was unparalleled.
Su Yi considered that in the future, when the Overlord Sect began implementing its division mechanisms, Nangong Ningyue should receive proper training.
“I’ll entrust these matters to you; you may handle them according to your own judgment. We also need to expand our influence, recruit capable individuals, and this location won’t suffice for us to fully express ourselves!” Su Yi stated clearly.
Through managing the affairs of taking over cities from the Seven Star Sword Sect and Golden Sword Sect, he realized that the Overlord Sect severely lacked manpower.
These matters should be addressed systematically, step by step.
“Yes, Master!” Nangong Ningyue responded respectfully.
“When we have time later, let’s decorate and establish another Fantastic Gate Soul Realm here!”
Xi Wuqing was also surveying the surroundings, examining the terrain.
Su Yi nodded at these words; the previous arrangement of the Dark Sun Realm was merely to counter the Tiangang Sect’s attack and didn’t represent its most complete state.
Otherwise, with the true power of the Dark Sun Realm, Hong Qianglong would likely have been trapped within it, and without requiring Xi Wuqing’s intervention, he would have ended up gravely injured—and that would have been a fortunate outcome!
“Let’s proceed gradually; we still have numerous tasks to accomplish!”
Su Yi then spoke and looked at Wen Zhengquan and Nangong Ningyue, “Wen Zhengquan, Nangong Ningyue, accompany me!”
After Su Yi finished speaking, he walked ahead and entered a nearby grand hall; Wen Zhengquan, Nangong Ningyue, the Green Emperor, Yin-yang Dark Emperor, the Soul Devouring Emperor, and Huang Jian followed.
“Nangong Ningyue, you’ve performed admirably lately; this item is a reward for you!”
Su Yi tossed out a jade bottle containing Spiritual Essence, which Nangong Ningyue caught.
“Thank you, Master Xie!”
After receiving it, Nangong Ningyue showed no intention of opening it; she simply expressed gratitude with a salute.
“Exercise caution when using this item; it can provide great benefits, but don’t pursue quick success and immediate results!”
Su Yi cautioned her, then said, “Next, you will assist the Overlord Sect in recruiting capable individuals. We need manpower, we need to expand! But we should establish certain principles when selecting people; for now, let’s adhere to the standards of your Cangyue Mercenary Group! Regarding future criteria, we can discuss that later when time permits!”
Su Yi provided Nangong Ningyue with a bottle of Spiritual Essence, hoping to enhance her cultivation. Although she possessed exceptional talent, she currently remained at only the fifth level of the Yuan True Realm.
With the Overlord Sect’s expansion, if her strength proved insufficient, she would certainly be unable to command respect from new recruits!
“Yes, Master!”
Nangong Ningyue nodded, unaware of the precious contents within the jade bottle.
“You may leave now!” Su Yi waved his hand.
After Nangong Ningyue’s departure, Su Yi’s attention turned to Wen Zhengquan.
“Master… Master!”
For some reason, when Wen Zhengquan noticed Su Yi’s serious expression, he couldn’t help but tremble nervously, and his speech became unsteady.
“With your cultivation at the Ninth Level of the Yuan Void Realm, how far do you believe you are from attaining the Yuan Emperor Realm?”
Su Yi observed the elderly man before him and inquired.
“Master, I am not distant from reaching the Yuan Emperor Realm, but unfortunately, I have yet to encounter the opportunity, and breakthrough is not straightforward!”
Wen Zhengquan sighed with a bitter smile and responded honestly.
As a wandering cultivator previously, he had indeed experienced hardship.
In fact, some sects had been willing to accept him, but Wen Zhengquan disliked being commanded and constrained by others.
Subsequently, he learned about the emergence of a new sect called the Overlord Sect. He felt this presented an opportunity to take a chance and secure a respectable position within it. He aspired to become an influential figure.
However, he never could have anticipated encountering such a formidable sect leader, or that the Overlord Sect’s overall strength would far exceed his expectations!
“You are not far from the Yuan Emperor Realm. I will take you to a location immediately, where you will have an opportunity to advance to the Yuan Emperor Realm. However, you must keep this place confidential and not disclose it to anyone! Otherwise, I will eliminate you!”
Su Yi gazed at Wen Zhengquan seriously and spoke deliberately, emphasizing each word.
Su Yi’s tone lacked strong inflection, but every word he uttered resonated like thunder in Wen Zhengquan’s ears, laden with deadly intent!
