Gate of God

Fang Zhengzhi could not be bothered to answer the Heavenly Oasis Saint’s question. As he watched Yuan Rong get sucked by the black light, he sliced at it with his Traceless Sword.

“Roar!”

A dragon roar resounded.

A purple light shone intensely and in the purple light, there were black balls of fire burning. It was like a purple dragon bathed in flames.

“Boom!” A huge explosion sounded.

The black light split apart as if it had been cut into halves by the sword. It then turned into two balls of black light.

At the same time, two figures emerged from the black light and landed on the ground with a thud.

“Bleurgh!” Yuan Rong spat a mouthful of blood out from his mouth and fell onto the diagram on the ground. His face turned pale as he said, “How can this be possible?! This rascal is only in his Rebirth State. How can he destroy my Shadow Evasion Dao with just one slice of his sword!”

“Big brother, are you alright?” Second Elder of the Black Moon Island was pale too. However, he seemed to be in a better shape than Yuan Rong.

After all, Yuan Rong protected him with his Shadow Evasion Dao. Hence, his injuries were not as serious. When he landed on the ground, he immediately lunged toward Yuan Rong.

“Breaking the shadow with just one slash!? This rascal’s progress is really too fast!” The Heavenly Oasis Saint was shocked. After all, Fang Zhengzhi’s opponents were two Sages.

To the Shadow Sect, intelligence gathering was of utmost importance. However, the Shadow Sect’s intelligence network could not penetrate the Heaven Dao Pavilion of the Holy Region.

Hence, the Heavenly Oasis Saint did not know much about the fight which took place one month ago at the Heaven Dao Pavilion. He only knew bits and pieces. As for the details, it was a mystery to him.

After all, this was a secret in the Holy Region, a secret which no one dared to mention.

Of course, these were all not important. In the Heavenly Oasis Saint’s mind, the most important thing was not the fact that Fang Zhengzhi had mastered Hell Dao and the Dao of Yin Yang, it was the fact that he could fuse both Daos together.

When the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples saw this ridiculous scene, they were all shocked. After all, to them, this was the first time they had seen someone use the Hell Dao and the Dao of Yin Yang like this.

“He could injure two Sages alone?!”

“Fang Zhengzhi, is he really so strong?”

“Even though Yuan Rong is injured, this is still unbelievable, right?”

The Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples were all shocked. However, they could not care about Yuan Rong and company because they had to deal with the Shadow Sect disciples, who were surging toward them like a tidal wave.

“He used the Yin Yang Mirror to break the heaven and earth revolution, which doubled the strength of the Hell Dao. Prodigy, this rascal is a true prodigy!” When Second Elder of the Heaven Dao Pavilion saw this scene, terror and shock were plastered all over his face. “We can’t let him leave, we definitely can’t let him leave! Fourth brother, sixth brother, attack!”

The moment Second Elder said that he raised his golden sword high up in the air. Then, he rushed toward Fang Zhengzhi.

“Yes! Second brother!”

When Fourth Elder and Sixth Elder saw this scene, they shared the same mentality as Second Elder. The fusion of two Daos was an act only a prodigy could pull off.

They could not let him live.

Hence, the moment Second Elder said that the two of them nodded their heads in response. Then, they followed tightly behind Second Elder to attack.

“Protect Yan Xiu!” Yan Qianli seemed prepared. When he saw Second Elder and Fourth Elder moving, he rushed forward too.

His body moved as fast as a bolt of lightning. At the same time, two blood-red spears materialized in his left and right hands. Then, he jabbed at Second Elder and Fourth Elder with them.

“Fighting two of us at the same time? Yan Qianli, you really don’t know your own strength! Fourth brother, sixth brother, there’s no need to care about him, I’ll take care of him!” When Second Elder looked at Yan Qianli, who was blocking him, he smiled coldly and the golden sword in his hand instantly doubled in size. It turned into a huge sword which dazzled with golden light.

He slashed with this sword!

Space shattered!

The sharp sword radiance was accompanied with a shrilling sword noise, blocking both of Yan Qianli’s blood-red spears.

“Alright!” Fourth Elder and Sixth Elder exchanged a look. They knew what each other was thinking and did not even bother to fight with Yan Qianli. Instead, they rushed straight for Fang Zhengzhi.

“Block them!” Yan Qianli shouted immediately.

The moment he said that 50 disciples of the Shadow Sect rushed out from the group of two to three thousand. They stood in front of Fourth Elder and Sixth Elder.

“Kill!” They roared together. These 50 disciples rushed forward without a care in the world. They were all resolutely fearless.

“Do you want to die?” Fourth Elder and Sixth Elder’s gazes turned cold. Swords appeared in their hands as they rushed into the formation laid by these 50 disciples.

Blood flew everywhere and cries of agony could be heard.

“Heavenly Oasis old man!” When Yan Qianli saw this tragic scene, he felt a pain in his heart. After all, he spent a lot of effort training these disciples.

Furthermore, his time as a Sage was short. While he could hold off Second Elder with his Dao of Asura, there was still a disparity in strength between the two of them.

“Eh… I thought I’m supposed to just watch the show? In the end, it’s still up to me!” The Heavenly Oasis Saint sighed and did not hesitate as he rushed forward.

At the same time, his swung his fly-whisk upward. Silvery threads filled the sky, which then rushed toward Fourth Elder and Sixth Elder. Every single strand of these silvery threads shone with a cold, metallic light.

It was clear.

This was a messy fight.

In the core of this messy fight, Fang Zhengzhi fought with Yuan Rong and Second Elder of the Black Moon Island. All other Sages were trying to rush toward this position.

Fang Zhengzhi was very clear about the situation.

After all, while the Shadow Sect disciples had a numerical advantage, his side was still disadvantaged when it came to strong cultivators.

How could it be easy to bog three Sages of the Heaven Dao Pavilion down?

Without hesitating any more, he rushed straight toward Yuan Rong. As he did so, five chains of different colors appeared rapidly from the ground.

This was the Hell Near-Life Chains!

The moment the Hell Near-Life Chains appeared, they wrapped themselves around Yuan Rong and Second Elder of the Black Moon Island as quickly as a bolt of lightning.

“Putssk!” The moment Yuan Rong stood up, his right leg was pierced by the Hell Near-Life Chains. He fell back on the ground once again.

This utterly terrified him.

At this moment, he finally understood how powerful could a person, who had the Hell Dao, the Dao of Yin Yang, and the Near-Life Dao, be.

“That’s not right! This rascal also knew the Heaven Dao!” A chill ran down Yuan Rong’s back. Suddenly, he felt an immense sense of danger coming toward him.

He wanted to dodge but his right leg was pierced by the Hell Near-Life Chains. He was completely immobile. Hence, all he could do was to block the move that came from behind.

However, could he really block it?

“Dragon Dances Eight Realms!”

When that murderous voice sounded, Yuan Rong saw a black shadow appearing behind him. The black shadow wielded a sword, which glowed with a devilish purple light.

“Kill!”

“Kill!”

“…”

From eight different directions came eight different shadows wielding eight swords which glowed purple. They slashed at Yuan Rong and Second Elder of the Black Moon Island.

It was a shocking scene.

This was because the moment the eight shadows drew their swords, space appeared to have collapsed. Then, eight dragon roars could be heard and eight purple dragons rushed out.

“Second brother, go!”

“No, I can’t abandon you, big brother!”

“Ah!”

With a wail of agony, one black shadow rushed into the air to escape. However, the moment he shot into the air, he felt a terrifying pressure dragging him down.

“Kaboom!” A huge explosion.

The black shadow, which had just been airborne, was dragged down once more as it landed on the ground heavily. Blood trickled from the corner of the shadow’s mouth.

“Second brother, you…” Yuan Rong looked at Second Elder, who had fallen right back next to him. His expression indicated that he was unwilling to accept this fact.

“Big brother, we can’t escape. From the start to the end, this rascal never planned on letting us escape…” Second Elder of the Black Moon Island looked at the huge diagram in the air as his chest rose and fell.

It was just like what he had said.

When Fang Zhengzhi used the Yin Yang Mirror to break the revolution of heaven and earth, he never thought of giving them a chance to escape.

Fang Zhengzhi had never been someone who delighted in killing.

However, this time, he had no intention of letting Yuan Rong and Second Elder escape. This was because he knew how dangerous an unscrupulous person could be.

Today…

The three Sages of the Black Moon Island used Yan Xiu as a hostage.

What would they do tomorrow?

How could he be sure that the three Sages would not threaten him with the villagers of the Northern Mountain Village? Or even his own parents?

This was not something Fang Zhengzhi could accept.

Total extermination may sound like a cruel concept. However, if someone was too compassionate and kind, especially when it came to dealing with someone who had absolutely no scruple, this ‘kindness’ was no longer kind. This was disregarding the safety of one’s loved ones.

Hence, the three Sages of the Black Moon Island must die!

“Fang Zhengzhi, even if I die, the Nine Pinnacles Mountain would not spare you!” Yuan Rong’s eyes were filled with venom. He hated how heaven was unjust to him. More importantly, he hated Shi Fan. If he had not wasted the most opportune moment, he would not be in this situation right now.

However, his hatred was futile.

This was because Fang Zhengzhi was already in front of him. At the same time, Fang Zhengzhi’s Traceless Sword stabbed into the depth of his heart. Its devilish purple light glowed.

This stab came very quickly. The sword was already in front of him the moment Second Elder of the Black Moon Island flew into the sky and then dropped back down.

He did not try to dodge it because he knew he could not do so. It was not because of the sword’s speed but instead, it was because his body was bogged down by the Hell Near-Life Chains. His arms and legs were immobile.

“I…” Yuan Rong looked up and saw Fang Zhengzhi standing in front of him. When he looked at Fang Zhengzhi’s crystal-clear eyes, he seemed as if he wanted to say something. However, Fang Zhengzhi did not give him the chance to do so. He had already pulled his Traceless Sword out from Yuan Rong’s heart. Then, he stabbed it straight into his throat.

“Shwoosh!” A human head flew into the air and landed in front of Second Elder of the Black Moon Island. The eyes of this human head still looked unwilling to concede defeat.

Silence!

The entire battlefield was silent!

It was so strange!

The elders of the Heaven Dao Pavilion, and the many disciples, all had the same thought in mind when they saw this head.

“This is the third one!”

“Three Sages died in the same day! Furthermore, they all died at the hands of the same person, who was still in his Rebirth State!”

Shock. This was something that had never happened in the Holy Region for hundreds of years. After all, there were only about 100 Sages in the Holy Region.

Three dying in one day?

This was something that could only happen during a fight among the five sects of the Holy Region. However, today, there was no such fight. There was only Fang Zhengzhi, who had been encircled by countless people.

How could they not be shocked?

After their shock…

A wail of extreme agony rang out.

“Big brother! Ah!” Second Elder of the Black Moon Island had a feral look on his face. The black symbol on his forehead started to shine brightly.

Then, the black symbol started to spread all over his face, and then his neck, chest, and even his arms. They all glowed.

“Fang Zhengzhi, be careful! This one here has been concealing his strength. He has a Gifted Bloodline, which is reversing its flow!” When the Heavenly Oasis Saint saw this transformation, his fly-whisk shook and he was visibly worried.

However, the moment he said that, the huge symbol in mid-air started to move. Quickly, it pressed down on Second Elder’s head.

“Thump!” Second Elder’s face changed visibly. He came into contact with a terrifying pressure, which forced to kneel on the ground.

At the same time, a shadow appeared before him, wielding a sword. A purple ray of light pierced into his heart.

Then, the purple light moved and another human head flew into the air. Then, the shadow slowly turned around to look at the Heavenly Oasis Saint.

“Heavenly Oasis old man, what were you saying?”

“…” The Heavenly Oasis Saint’s mouth moved. He was terribly uncomfortable as if he had just swallowed a fly. He seemed incapable of speaking.
