nQi Ming looked up carefully.

nThis was a pitch-black giant that seemed to be made of black iron. It had a huge dragon head that was like a true dragon, but its body was a prehistoric giant alligator that was many times larger.

nIts entire body was covered in diamond-shaped scales.

n“You’re a Demon Court Venerable!”

nLü Qingyan recognized the other party at a glance and almost cried out, “Dragon Alligator!”

n“It’s actually a Demon Court Venerable.”

n“Has the Demon Court gone mad?”

n“What does the Demon Court want to do? Could it be that they want to fight our Heaven Enlightenment Sect again?”

n“Bastards!”

n

n

nThe inner sect elders were too shocked and furious.

nOne had to know that the Demon Court’s Venerable had a high status in the Demon Court and was powerful. He was close to an immortal god. Even the legacy elders of the various peaks of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect were not his match. They were a realm lower.

nOnly the Peak Masters of the twelve peaks or the Grand Elders of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect could resist the Demon Court’s venerable.

nBuzz!

nThe voice of the Demon Court’s Dragon Alligator Venerable entered the ears of everyone present as if it was ringing in their minds, “I’ve already left the Demon Court. Therefore, what I’m doing now is unrelated to the Demon Court.”

n“Dragon Alligator Venerable.” Lü Qingyan slowly took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. “You did not hesitate to leave the Demon Court to declare war on our Heaven Enlightenment Sect. What’s the point of doing this? What exactly are you doing?”

n“Why?!”

nA huge fluctuation immediately appeared in the Dragon Alligator Venerable’s tone. It was filled with anger and violent killing intent. He could no longer hold back, causing a terrifying spiritual qi storm to arise in the surroundings.

nIt was like a natural disaster.

n“Have you forgotten? It was a month ago.”

nDragon Alligator Venerable shouted in a deep voice, “During your Heaven Enlightenment Sect’s Outer Sect Assessment, the legacy elder of the Martial Illumination Peak, Su Zixu, designed the Heavenly Chief Inheritance trap in the Heavenly Chief Mystic Realm and lured out a large number of Qi Refinement realm demon cultivators who were hiding in your Heaven Enlightenment Sect.”

n“However…”

n“You should know that the last demon cultivator you captured possessed the inheritance bloodline of the Dragon Alligator. His real name is Long Tengyun. Not only did your Heaven Enlightenment Sect search his soul, but you also left him without a corpse.”

n“Long Tengyun is my great-grandson.”

nLü Qingyan was stunned.

nShe did not expect this.

nNo one present expected such a reason.

nIt was obvious.

nIt was because Long Tengyun’s identity and background was not simple, as the great-grandson of the Demon Court’s Dragon Alligator Venerable, that after the soul search, they could find so much information about the hidden demon cultivators and eliminate them in one go.

nHowever, there was one thing they did not understand.

nSince Long Tengyun was the great-grandson of a demon venerable, with his status, why did he have to do such a dangerous thing as going undercover?

n“There’s more.”

nLong Tengyun was only a descendant of the Dragon Alligator. Their bloodlines were separated by several generations, so why did Dragon Alligator Venerable make such a big fuss? He did not hesitate to leave the Demon Court to declare war on the Heaven Enlightenment Sect?

nIf one pondered carefully, they would discover some interesting points.

nHowever, one thing was for sure.

nThe reason why the Dragon Alligator Venerable took revenge for his great-grandson, Long Tengyun, was only on the surface. There was definitely another secret behind this, and there was a reason that everyone was unaware of for the time being.

n“Qi Ming!”

nAt this moment, the Dragon Alligator Venerable’s gaze landed on Qi Ming. He clearly recognized him, “My grandson was captured because of you. Therefore, you deserve death.”

n“Die!”

nBoom!

nAs soon as he finished speaking…

nThe Dragon Alligator Venerable did not hesitate to attack. There was no room for discussion. Or rather, he was already prepared to die here.

nHe was prepared to die.

nAgainst such an enemy, words and discussions were useless.

nHe could only fight to the death!

nAfter all, this was the Heaven Enlightenment Sect.

nAlthough he, the Dragon Alligator Venerable, was powerful, he had already completely offended the Heaven Enlightenment Sect by daring to directly attack the Heaven Enlightenment Sect and not hesitate to destroy the Heaven Enlightenment Assembly.

nAs long as the higher-ups of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect reacted.

nAt that time, Dragon Alligator Venerable would definitely die.

nBut before that, if he wanted to do something, no one present could stop him.

nRumble!!!

nAt this moment, in Qi Ming’s vision, the entire sky dimmed. The space almost collapsed as it suffered an incomparable pressure and quickly caved in.

nIt was an incomparably huge heaven shrouding alligator claw.

nIt directly landed on Qi Ming.

nDragon Alligator Venerable wanted to kill Qi Ming.

nThe goal was clear.

nMoreover…

nWhile Dragon Alligator Venerable was hiding, he had already seen the battle between Qi Ming and the other legacy disciples of the other eleven peaks from the beginning to the end. He knew that Qi Ming had mastered the Chaos Green Lotus Sword Scripture.

nIt was enough for the Heaven Enlightenment Sect to have one Yang Li. They could not have another one. Otherwise, the Heaven Enlightenment Sect would become the leader of the Southern Region.

nKilling Qi Ming was Dragon Alligator Venerable’s first goal.

n“Junior Brother.” Lü Qingyan exclaimed in shock.

nSwoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!!!

nLü Qingyan formed hand seals in an instant. Nine-colored light rushed out and formed countless hand seals that shot into the sky.

nNot only that, Lü Qingyan threw out defensive Dharma treasures, shields, pagodas, cauldrons, and so on one after another. They soared into the sky but were unable to withstand the strike of Dragon Alligator Venerable.

nBang bang bang!!!

nThese treasures were directly shattered.

n“Screen of the Nine Heavens.”

nBoom!

nFinally, Lu Qingyan shouted. She resolutely took out her intrinsic Dharma treasure, the Nine Heavens Screen. Nine-colored light surrounded it like a huge screen that covered the sky as it faced Dragon Alligator Venerable.

n“Oh.” The Dragon Alligator Venerable exclaimed softly as if he was surprised by the strength that Lü Qingyan had suddenly erupted with.

nBoom!

nThere was a loud sound.

nThe Dragon Alligator Venerable’s attack was indeed blocked.

nCrack! Crack!

nHowever, cracks appeared in Lü Qingyan’s Nine Heavens Screen. Her intrinsic Dharma treasure had been damaged. Her foundation had been injured.

nPew!!!

nLü Qingyan spat out blood and was severely injured.

n“Senior Sister!!!” Qi Ming shouted.

n“Run! Run!”

nBuzz!

nLü Qingyan waved her hand and a decree flew out. It landed deep on Qi Ming’s chest. She shouted again, “This is a one-time use spatial token. Activate it quickly. It can teleport you away.”

n“But Senior Sister, you…” Qi Ming said.

n“Hurry up!”

nPew!!!

nLü Qingyan spat out another mouthful of blood. She could not hold on anymore.

n“!!!”

nQi Ming gritted his teeth and injected spirit energy into it. He activated the one-time use Spatial Token. The spatial fluctuation enveloped Qi Ming’s entire body and combined with the Heaven Enlightenment Mirror Avatar.

nBuzz!

nQi Ming was being teleported away.

n“Dream on.” Dragon Alligator Venerable’s tone was cold.

n“Stop him!”

n“Let Legacy Disciple Qi leave!”

n“Explode! Explode! Explode!”

nRumble!!!

nImmediately, Tan Chengling, Cui Qing, and the inner sect elders of the other peaks quickly freed up their hands and threw out artifacts one after another. They directly detonated the artifacts, producing great destructive power and might to stop Dragon Alligator Venerable for a moment.

nBuzz!

nQi Ming was teleported away by the Spatial Token.

n“All of you deserve to die!”

nRumble!!!

nDragon Alligator Venerable was completely furious. He had erupted with incomparably terrifying strength. He was an invincible existence that heavily injured all the inner sect elders.

n“Ah!!!”

nPew!!!

nThe inner sect elders of the twelve peaks screamed repeatedly.

n“Dragon Alligator Venerable.”

n“You’re too insolent.”

n“Stop!”

n“…”

nBuzz! Buzz!

nAt this moment, Feng Zimu, Su Zixu, and the two legacy elders of the Heaven Ascension Peak rushed over in the shortest time and stopped Dragon Alligator Venerable.

nThe four legacy elders descended.

nFeng Zimu was Qi Ming’s master. He had always been paying attention to the Heaven Enlightenment Assembly, so he could only rush over immediately after discovering the abnormality.

nSu Zixu knew Long Tengyun’s true identity, so he had been paying attention to the Heaven Enlightenment Assembly.

nAs for the Numinous Sky Peak and the Heaven Ascension Peak…

nThis was because these two peaks were very close to the place where the Heaven Enlightenment Assembly was held.

n“Su Zixu.”

nThe Dragon Alligator Venerable’s gaze stared at the other party, filled with intense killing intent, “End your life and I will leave immediately. Otherwise, everyone present will die.”

n“Dragon Alligator Venerable.” Su Zixu’s gaze was cold and fearless, “You’re courting death.”

n“How are your injuries?”

nFeng Zimu held Lü Qingyan and fed her a healing pill. Only then did a trace of blood appear on Lü Qingyan’s pale face.

n“Master… Master.”

nLü Qingyan coughed out another mouthful of blood and said, “I… I won’t die for the time being. However, Junior Brother used the one-time use spatial token. I don’t know where he has been teleported to.”

n“Also, before leaving, he said that demonic and itinerant cultivators have infiltrated.”

n“His situation is very dangerous.”

n“Alright.” Feng Zimu said, “Treat your injuries first. Qi Ming will be fine.”

n“Mm.” Lu Qingyan nodded.

n“Dragon Alligator Venerable.” The legacy elder of the Heaven Link Peak said, “You’re really very bold. Even if you’re a Demon Court Venerable with an unfathomable cultivation, by coming to the Heaven Enlightenment Sect alone, what’s the difference between that and courting death?”

n“Ridiculous.” Feng Zimu shouted in a deep voice, “Dragon Alligator Venerable, you will definitely die here today.”

n“You?” The Dragon Alligator Venerable snorted coldly.

n“Attack!”

n“Heaven Link Aspect!”

n“Green Lotus Dao!”

n“Nine Heavens Divine Mountain!”

nBoom! Boom! Boom!

nThe three legacy elders joined forces and directly used their strongest methods to attack Dragon Alligator Venerable. He was extremely powerful, surpassing the legacy elders, so he seemed to be at ease when facing the attacks of the three legacy elders.

nPew!!!

nNot long after, the legacy elder of the Numinous Sky Peak was injured.

n“The Peak Masters should be arriving soon.” Feng Zimu shouted, “Let’s persist for a while longer.”

n“Mm.”

n“Understood.”

n“We have to stall Dragon Alligator Venerable. We can’t let him unleash a massacre. Otherwise, this Heaven Enlightenment Assembly will really be ruined.”

n“Yes!”

nThe four legacy elders shouted in conversation.

nAt this moment, on the other side, Qi Ming was teleported out of Heaven Enlightenment City by a one-time use space token. When he recovered from his shock, he found himself in a dark and dense forest.

n

n

n“This is…”

nWith a thought, Qi Ming thought of something. Although he had left Heaven Enlightenment City, he could still control the Heaven Enlightenment Mirror Avatar and understand where he was.

n“I haven’t left the range of the Heaven Enlightenment Assembly.” Qi Ming said.

nBoom! Boom! Boom!!!

nIn the sky, a huge explosion and rumble sounded.

nQi Ming looked up.

nOne could faintly see an incomparably huge body unleashing its divine might, and there were numerous figures fighting the other party in the surroundings. The battle was especially intense.

nThe aftershock of the battle spread.

nMany places were destroyed by the aftershock of the battle.

nSeveral mountain peaks collapsed..
