Chapter 401: Chapter 401: Nether Sect
“Impossible!” Li Bi shook his head, “Years ago, the Lord of Azure God decapitated the Undefeated Underworld God and sealed his head and body in different locations.”
“The Undefeated Underworld God cannot possibly be revived.”
Another Elder also spoke up, “I also feel it’s impossible for the Undefeated Underworld God.”
“But, if it isn’t the Undefeated Underworld God, then who could it be?”
A group of Elders discussed.
It was at this moment that the Sword God Xi Long said, “Actually, the seal on the Undefeated Underworld God’s head has already been broken by someone.”
“What!” As soon as Sword God Xi Long spoke, Chen Jing and Li Bi, among others, all had their expressions change dramatically.
The seal on the Undefeated Underworld God’s head had been broken!
Could it be that the Undefeated Underworld God’s head was…?
Sword God Xi Long took a deep sigh and said, “To not conceal anything from you all, the seal on the Undefeated Underworld God’s head was actually broken by someone over a thousand years ago.”
“And the Undefeated Underworld God’s head has long since disappeared without a trace!”
The words of Sword God Xi Long chilled everyone’s hearts.
The Undefeated Underworld God’s head has actually gone missing?
This was nothing short of earth-shattering news.
If this matter were to spread, it would definitely cause a great upheaval in the Azure God Continent.
“The seal on the Undefeated Underworld God’s head had always been guarded by experts from the Azure God Mansion, but over a thousand years ago, a group of people in grey cloaks and masked faces appeared. They were all extremely powerful and injured several Elders who were guarding the seal before destroying it and taking the Undefeated Underworld God’s head,” said Xi Long with a heavy tone.
Chen Jing and Li Bi looked at each other, their faces showing mutual shock.
Panic spread throughout the great hall.
Just recently, the appearance of the Undying Death God had already caused a great shock to the world, and now even the Undefeated Underworld God’s head was missing.
If the Undefeated Underworld God were to revive, then chaos would be inevitable in the Azure God Continent.
The Azure God Mansion might handle one Undying Death God, but if the Undefeated Underworld God were to join in as well, I’m afraid even the Azure God Mansion would not be able to suppress it.
If the Undying Death God and the Undefeated Underworld God were to join forces, it is estimated that even our Lord Azure Bear would not be their match.
“This matter is of grave importance, so I ask that you please do not leak any information,” Xi Long warned as he surveyed the crowd.
The hearts of all present went cold, and they respectfully agreed.
“Sir, is it known who took the Undefeated Underworld God’s head back then?” Chen Jing couldn’t help but ask.
“It is likely to be someone from the Nether Sect,” Xi Long said gravely.
The Nether Sect!
All were shocked.
Back then, it was the Undefeated Underworld God who established the Nether Sect.
“The Nether Sect still exists!” Li Bi exclaimed in shock, “Wasn’t the Nether Sect destroyed after the Undefeated Underworld God was killed by the Lord of Azure God?”
Xi Long shook his head, “In that battle back then, nearly all the experts of the Nether Sect perished, but there were still some who slipped through the net, and the Son of Nether God escaped.”
Upon mention of the Son of Nether God, everyone was startled.
The Son of Nether God, the son of the Undefeated Underworld God, was a prodigy with stunning talent, comparable to the Undefeated Underworld God himself. Even the Undefeated Underworld God had highly praised him. If the Son of Nether God were still alive, it’s feared his power might now be no less than that of the Undefeated Underworld God in his prime.
“It must be the Son of Nether God who took away the Undefeated Underworld God’s head,” Xi Long stated.
Hearing that the Son of Nether God was still alive, everyone felt even more weighed down.
If the Undefeated Underworld God were revived, in addition to the Son of Nether God and the Undying Death God, that would be absolutely terrifying.
“If the Son of Nether God rescued the head of the Nether God, it’s feared he will also make a move to rescue the body of Nether God,” Li Bi said, her face fraught with worry.
Xi Long nodded, “We have also thought of that, but there’s no need to worry. Nether God’s body is sealed in the deepest part of the Azure God Mansion, guarded in turns by Lord Azure Bear and the Mansion Master. The Son Nether God won’t possibly be able to rescue Nether God’s body.”
Hearing that Nether God’s body was suppressed in the deepest part of the Azure God Mansion, and that it was under the alternating guard of Lord Azure Bear and the Mansion Master, everyone felt reassured.
“However, everyone must still be vigilant and well-prepared. The Son Nether God has been alive all these years, secretly rebuilding the Nether Sect, and many experts from demon sects across the Azure God Continent may have already sided with the Nether Sect,” Xi Long said.
The hearts of the people sank even further upon hearing that many forces from demon sects and evil masters had already joined the Nether Sect.
“Moreover, it’s possible that some of the Supreme Sects and families in the Myriad Gods Empire might have spies from the Nether Sect,” Xi Long said, “It’s even possible that our Azure God Academy and the Azure God Mansion might have spies from the Nether Sect.”
The assembly of experts immediately looked at each other with vigilant eyes.
“But, my friends, I still have faith,” Xi Long said, “There’s no need for suspicion. I’m referring to those disciples or elders and even the Supreme Elders. If anyone finds a Nether Sect spy, they should strike immediately without hesitation.”
Everyone responded respectfully.
Just as they were discussing the Undefeated Underworld God and matters of the Nether Sect, suddenly an Earth-Shaking Dragon Roar burst forth, the sound echoing throughout the entire Azure God Academy.
A vast dragon might from ancient times swept over Heaven and Earth.
All were startled, then turned their eyes toward the direction of the Dragon Blood Pond.
“What is this?” Chen Jing exclaimed in astonishment. “Ancient Dragon Soul!”
In the sky above the Dragon Blood Pond, a massive dragon soul appeared.
The dragon soul lifted its head, roaring through Heaven and Earth.
“Who is at the Dragon Blood Pond?” Xi Long was also surprised and asked.
“It’s Friend Yang,” Chen Jing said with a smile, “He entered the Dragon Blood Pond early this morning for cultivation. Who would have thought that he’d actually stir the Ancient Dragon Soul of the Dragon Blood Pond.”
Xi Long looked relieved upon hearing this.
Only a disciple of exceptional talent who entered the Dragon Blood Pond for cultivation could stir the Ancient Dragon Soul. If it was Yang Xiaotian, then it wasn’t surprising.
However, at that moment, another Earth-Shaking Dragon Roar resounded. Above the Dragon Blood Pond, another massive dragon soul appeared.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
“Two Ancient Dragon Souls? What’s going on? Isn’t there only one Ancient Dragon Soul in the Dragon Blood Pond? How can there be two?” A venerable elder exclaimed in shock.
From ancient times to the present, all disciples who entered the Dragon Blood Pond for cultivation only ever stirred one Ancient Dragon Soul.
No one had ever seen two Ancient Dragon Souls before.
But then, another Ancient Dragon Soul flew out.
“Three Ancient Dragon Souls!” Even Chen Jing was dumbstruck.
Then a fourth Ancient Dragon Soul appeared, followed by a fifth, a sixth, a seventh…
The Ancient Dragon Souls from the Dragon Blood Pond seemed endless.
Not only the high-levels but even the disciples from all the peaks and halls of the Azure God Academy were stunned.
Finally, the Ancient Dragon Souls above the Dragon Blood Pond stopped at ten.
Xi Long, viewing the ten Ancient Dragon Souls, exclaimed, “It seems the legend is true.”
Legend?
Everyone instinctively turned to look at Xi Long.
But Xi Long did not explain what legend he referred to.
Meanwhile, Yang Xiaotian, sitting cross-legged in the Dragon Blood Pond, felt his blood boiling. The Dragon Essence within him became increasingly thick and solidified. The Dragon Blood from the Blood Pond permeated into his flesh, coating his skin with a layer of golden light, shining brightly.
After one day, the time for cultivation in the Dragon Blood Pond came to an end.
Yang Xiaotian was brought out of the Dragon Blood Pond.
Although he could only cultivate in the Dragon Blood Pond for one day, this day of cultivation brought unimaginable benefits to Yang Xiaotian.
