Chapter 1795: Overbearing Ziling Sect
Chapter 1795: Overbearing Ziling Sect
The Celestial Alliance was one of the three superpowers. They had subordinate organizations all over the world, including in the Western Desert. After conquering more than half of the Western Desert, the Ziling Sect had affected the interests of the Celestial Alliance's subordinate organizations.
Thus, the Celestial Alliance moved. The Celestial Alliance was incredibly arrogant, coming bearing a decree and arrogantly demanding that Xiang Shaoyun kneels to them. Three members were in the delegation. All three of them were powerful cultivators, with two of them being fifth-stage Gods and one of them being a seventh-stage God. The one who had spoken was none other than the seventh-stage God.
However, their command went unanswered. They were forced to release their auras as a way to pressure the Ziling Sect. However, having grown into a tier-9 organization, the incorporeal power surrounding the Ziling Sect was powerful enough that they did not need to fear their auras.
"Xiang Shaoyun, get your ass out here and accept the divine decree!" demanded the seventh-stage God yet again.
Right at that moment, a massive torrent of energy shot out of the sect, streaking toward the seventh-stage God. The attack was quick, violent, and dazzling. The seventh-stage God couldn't even react before the beam pierced through his chest, blasting him through several mountains and impaling him to a cliff.
The seventh-stage God was overwhelmingly shocked. He wanted to get rid of the spear stabbing through his body, but no matter how he struggled, he couldn't move the spear. The sealing power within the spear was too great. The other two Gods were greatly frightened. Before they could flee, two spears shot toward them, nailing them right beside the seventh-stage God.
With the strength of the three envoys, they were capable of flattening mountains with even a tiny bit of their strength. However, they found themselves incapable of mustering any of their strength. The ordinary-looking spears were erasing their strength, painting the cliff red with their godly blood. The plants on the mountain were nourished by the divine blood and started growing at a rapid speed.
The Ziling Sect members witnessed everything. They only had mocking sneers on their faces without a trace of sympathy. They also weren't shocked, as though that was how things should be.
Their confidence was justified. After the Ziling Sect was invaded by several major organizations, they were able to defeat the invaders, including the invaders' Nine Revolutions Realm expert, who was then put under Xiang Shaoyun's control. Both the Yu Clan and the Jing Sect were forced to submit, and the Di Clan was destroyed. The Ziling Sect was already the undisputed strongest organization in the Western Desert. For the Celestial Alliance envoys to show so much disrespect, they were courting death.
Many organizations were aware of the Celestial Alliance's decree. They all wanted to see if the Ziling Sect would compromise. Thus, many spies were sent to observe the situation. All of them were stunned when they saw the three envoys nailed to a cliff.
"A-arent these the Celestial Alliance's envoys? They were nailed here? The Ziling Sect is truly overbearing!"
"Does the Ziling Sect intend to challenge the Celestial Alliance? That's crazy!"
"The dominion is already in chaos. What is the Ziling Sect doing? Why are they starting internal turmoil? That's just wrong!"
"Be careful when you talk. I heard that the overlord is very strong now. Even aliens can be slaughtered at will. Since he dares to challenge the Celestial Alliance, there is naturally a reason for his confidence."
"You can't blame the Ziling Sect for this. Those three envoys were the ones acting arrogantly. They even demanded that the overlord kneels before them. How stupid can they be?"
...
The three envoys were still alive. When they heard all the remarks, they felt like they were better off dead. They represented the face of the Celestial Alliance, and they had thrown away the Celestial Alliance's face. They had also allowed the air of dignity they had cultivated for themselves over many years to be trampled over.
Atop one of the Ziling Sect's mountains, Purple Lightning Marquis, Scarlet Flame Monarch, and Devouring Ghost were gazing at the three envoys with disdain.
"They are thinking of creating trouble for us with just those three? Are the people from the Celestial Alliance imbeciles?" said Scarlet Flame Monarch with derision.
"Those three are merely feelers to test our response. The true show is yet to begin," said Purple Lightning Marquis.
"Bring it on. We don't fear them anymore," said Devouring Ghost.
"Yeah. Back when we knew nothing, we naively tried to conquer the Western Desert with the overlord. Ultimately, all of you were nearly killed, and the overlord himself was killed. Good thing we got a restart. Our dream from back then is going to be fulfilled soon," said Purple Lightning Marquis with a melancholic tone.
"I don't understand why the overlord isn't fighting for the young guild master position," said Scarlet Flame Monarch.
"The overlord must have formed his own plan. But he has been busy recently, so we shouldn't bother him with such senseless questions," said Purple Lightning Marquis. "As for those spies, let them be. Allow them to spread the news of what happened here. The Celestial Alliance will definitely send stronger experts here to save face. At that time, we'll be able to have a good fight with them."
Sure enough, a group of powerful cultivators from the Celestial Alliance came a few days later. Riding on an ancient war chariot, they approached in an aggressive manner. The group was led by two peak ninth-stage Gods. As for the other members, they were all Gods as well. This was a group powerful enough to destroy many organizations in existence.
However, this wasn't enough against the Ziling Sect. Of course, the group was aware of that. Instead of attacking, they went to help the three nailed envoys. But even after a ninth-stage God used all his strength, he still couldn't pull out any of the spears. All who witnessed that scene were stunned. Just what kind of power could cause even a ninth-stage God's efforts to be fruitless?
"Ziling Sect, audacious! You dare detain our celestial envoys? You will suffer soon!" said the leader coldly before opening the decree in his hand.
Whoosh!
A bright radiance rippled out of the decree, and a hazy figure appeared before them. An incomparably powerful aura accompanied that figure's appearance.
All the Celestial Alliance members knelt down and said, "Greetings, alliance master."
