Chapter 884: A Mountain With A Thought

Since ancient times, peacemakers had needed both prestige and great strength.
Without superiority in strength as a form of support, mediation would not be successful even if the peacemaker was impartial towards both parties.
Based on the same rationale, if the mediator possessed superior strength, he would be able to decide the direction of the scene with a mere sentence and the other party would only listen even if the decision was biased.
They would have to swallow their grievances even if they were not willing to accept it.
After all, they could not afford to offend and disrespect the mediator. For example, many years ago, an intense extermination had occurred between two top sects.
During such a situation, one of the three hall masters of Hong Meng Sacred Hall, Left Hall Master, had stepped forward and immediately halted the all-out war between both parties with just one sentence.
Although the conditions he had proposed had been very unfavorable for one side, in the end, the two sides had shaken hands and made peace according to the Hall Master’s conditions.
In addition to the prestige of the Left Hall Master, what was more important was that the Left Hall Master’s cultivation had made people shudder even before they could even think about offending him.
Although Luo Yunyang was now the Zongzi of Hong Meng Sacred Hall and had great prospects of becoming a Yuan Venerate, most of the elites that were stuck at the ninth-level Heavenly Venerate would be afraid of a person who might become a Yuan Venerate.
After all, they were also hopeful elites that might one day become a Yuan Venerate or were even closer to becoming one themselves.
Furthermore, there wasn’t much joy to sucking up to a person expected to become a Yuan Venerate rather than becoming a Yuan Venerate themselves.
The seventh-level Heavenly Venerate who spoke was a disciple of a top-notch ninth-level Heavenly Venerate. He knew what his master was thinking and also knew that he was allowed to say certain words.
Thus, his words were extremely inflexible.
Luo Yunyang glared coldly at the seventh-level Heavenly Venerate, who was already floating in mid-air.
The death of Yuan Venerate Wanliu was just around the corner, but he had yet to encounter such problems when his mediation began.
His mediation would become a big joke if he didn’t abolish the person challenging him in the first place.
Luo Yunyang did not recognize the seventh-level Heavenly Venerate that stepped forward, but his provocation had left Luo Yunyang without any room for retreat.
He mulled this over for a moment before the fourth-level ancient bronze bell of four universes appeared above his head.
His spirit consciousness struck the huge bell heavily, even though he did not use the attribute regulator.
Traceless Bell Wave!
Although he did not use the attribute regulator, the power of the Traceless Bell Wave exceeded its state when he had just received the Chaotic Yuan Sky Bell technique.
Even though the seventh-level Heavenly Venerate seemed to lock down on Luo Yunyang, deep down he was actually quite wary of Luo Yunyang.
If nothing else, his Sacred Image, a giant golden tiger with widespread wings, was already floating in the void.
The giant winged tiger was formed by the cultivation path of the seventh-level Heavenly Venerate. Not only could it gather the power of the seventh-level Heavenly Venerate’s internal universe, but it could also utilize the power of the Origin Source Laws controlled by the seventh-level Heavenly Venerate.
It could be said that the Heavenly Venerate’s Sacred Image was akin to the seventh-level Heavenly Venerate having a much stronger clone of him.
The seventh-level Heavenly Venerate was looking forward to Luo Yunyang making a move when the Sacred Image was formed.
He would definitely show no mercy if Luo Yunyang attacked him recklessly. Instead, he would destroy the Hong Meng Sacred Hall Zongzi’s reputation to supplement his own.
The seventh-level Heavenly Venerate could sense Luo Yunyang’s move when the huge bell chimed. However, he felt that there was nothing to fear about this sort of sound wave attack.
Unfortunately, the seventh-level Heavenly Venerate felt that something was off the instant the bell wave rippled at him. Just as he was preparing to change his method of dealing with the bell wave, the bell wave shattered his mind.
The seventh-level Heavenly Venerate fell in mere moments.
Luo Yunyang swung his hand towards the seventh-level Heavenly Venerate while he was falling and the ancient bronze huge bell that had originally appeared in Luo Yunyang’s hand collided with the falling body of the seventh-level Heavenly Venerate.
BOOM!
Everything happened in a flash. Meanwhile, the seventh-level Heavenly Venerate’s body had already been pulverized.
Heavenly Venerates could be indestructible, but the Traceless Bell Wave Luo Yunyang had received had its own wonderful function. It could destroy the memories of a Heavenly Venerate that were hidden in the long river of time and space.
Therefore, one could say that the seventh-level Heavenly Venerate struck by the Traceless Bell Wave had shattered his spirit consciousness completely. Even his Sacred Image, which had formed in the void, collapsed instantly.
As the master of the seventh-level Heavenly Venerate, Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake had been quietly watching this from afar.
It wasn’t easy for a ninth-level Heavenly Venerate to have a seventh-level Heavenly Venerate as a disciple.
This seventh-level Heavenly Venerate disciple of his was his trusted aide, and he had expended countless resources and effort to push his disciple’s cultivation until he became a seventh-level Heavenly Venerate.
This disciple hadn’t disappointed him. Instead, he was considered his most powerful assistant. However, this assistant had just been killed instantly by Luo Yunyang.
Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake was livid.
At the same time, he also started to be apprehensive of Luo Yunyang, who seemed to be only a fourth-level Heavenly Venerate.
“Luo Yunyang, how dare you kill my disciple!” Although Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake was not willing to appear right now, he knew that he would become a laughing stock if he did not step forward.
After all, there were many people of similar status there and they all knew him.
“It’s Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake!” Fear struck Great Heavenly Venerate Rubble when he saw Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake.
He knew about Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake. Although Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake couldn’t be compared to the top-notch Great Heavenly Venerate who had conjured the sword-wheel of 36 longswords, his Soaring Snake Sacred Image allowed him to draw on the endless power of the great land.
Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake was a very difficult character to deal with both in terms of offense and defense.
Within this sect, only Yuan Venerate Wanliu sect would be able to kill him. However, Yuan Venerate Wanliu was about to die, and there should be no one else who could deal with Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake.
Luo Yunyang glanced at the figure of the Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake in the void and said dully, “So what if I killed him? Would you dare kill me?”
These words made Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake choke and left him speechless. After all, as the saying went, it was an eye for an eye.
However, when Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake thought about Luo Yunyang’s identity, he immediately felt as though he was handling a scorching-hot potato.
Luo Yunyang was a Zongzi of Hong Meng Sacred Hall, so he was considered a key person nurtured by Hong Meng Sacred Hall. Hong Meng Sacred Hall would never allow such a person to be killed while they were grooming him.
The Hong Meng Sacred Hall Yuan Venerate Almighty that stood guard over Luo Yunyang might even obliterate him before he could lay his hands on Luo Yunyang. However, not killing Luo Yunyang would make him extremely uncomfortable too.
“Kid, you are one of the candidates on Hong Meng Sacred Hall’s Heaven Roll. I cannot kill you, but I can capture you and seek justice from your superiors in Hong Meng Sacred Hall.” Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake conjured a series of hand seals and sent a yellow Soaring Snake out of his body.
The Soaring Snake was a mythical beast brought together by Earth Origin Source Laws. In addition to that, Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake had mustered up all his effort to conjure it. Hence, in the blink of an eye, the increased power had reached the peak of the ninth-level Heavenly Venerate.
A boundless amount of Earth Origin began to gather into a mountain around Luo Yunyang as the huge Soaring Snake moved into the void.
This mountain was completely made up of the essence of earth.
Great Heavenly Venerate Rubble, who stood beside Heavenly Venerate Nongyue, shook his head gently and lamented. “Yuan Venerate can reverse time and space and create nomological laws.”
“Meanwhile, a ninth-level Heavenly Venerate that has reached the peak of Origin Source Laws can use the force of the nomological laws as they please.”
“Refining the Divine Earth of the nine heavens out of thin air and transforming it into a sacred mountain is a technique that is really…”
Great Heavenly Venerate Rubble was also an eighth-level great Heavenly Venerate that had condensed a Sacred Image. Although he too was skillful in manipulating Earth and Rock Origin Source Laws, he was more inferior compared to Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake.
This difference in skill would not allow him to resist when facing Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake’s overwhelming techniques.
Luo Yunyang could sense that the void around him had become extremely rigid and it was getting very difficult for him to even move.
He created a sacred mountain with a mere thought. Although this sacred mountain would eventually disappear without the support of the earth’s pulse, it was still a terrifying technique.
Luo Yunyang would have been able to shatter this sacred mountain directly if he’d had the cultivation base of a ninth-level Heavenly Venerate.
However, he did not have that sort of cultivation base. Hence, he could only rely on the other techniques he had up his sleeves.
While Luo Yunyang was pondering this, a cold voice said, “Although this technique is a bit stupid, it is not completely useless.”
The owner of the sword-wheel that was shining brightly in the void, Yan Chijian, was the one who had spoken. His words were actually mocking Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake.
However, Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake did not respond to his goading, as he was already wary of Yan Chijian.
Meanwhile, the old Heavenly Venerate and his disciples, who had been watching the battle all along, were all rather relaxed.
The probability of them receiving the main opportunity of Yuan Venerate Wanliu was very slim. Their main goal was to come out of the Rising Sky Feather Sect with a slice of the pie.
However, Luo Yunyang was undoubtedly blocking their way.
“He’s overestimating himself!” Some people sneered when they saw the appearance of the black sacred mountain.
In their opinion, Luo Yunyang wasn’t going to escape from it.
