“Lei Wanjun from the Thunder God Clan hasn’t arrived yet.”
An old man in a silver robe spoke.
As soon as he finished speaking, the rune in the center of the hall suddenly lit up, and a silver figure slowly appeared.
He was a burly middle-aged man with a rugged face and a violent aura between his brows.
Dense bolts of lightning rumbled around his body, each one like a silver python, slithering across his body with a clattering sound.
Lei Wanjun, eighth-rank Gold Immortal and patriarch of the Thunder God Clan.
“Sorry, I am late.”
Lei Wanjun’s voice, like muffled thunder, resounded in the council hall. His gaze swept across everyone, finally settling on Wu Tianji. “Clan Leader Wu, what is the matter so urgent?”
Wu Tianji tapped his finger lightly on the table, producing a dull sound.
“You’ve all heard of Eighteenth Heaven, right?”
Lei Wanjun frowned. “The destruction of the Hall of Light and the Palace of Fire?”
“That’s right.”
Wu Tianji nodded, a cold glint radiating from his golden-red eyes. “The Light Palace was destroyed, and the Holy Light Heavenly Venerate was killed. The Fire God Palace was destroyed, and Yan Wuji was also killed. It was the same person who did it, a Daoist cultivator named David.”
Lei Wanjun frowned even more deeply. “A Taoist cultivator can destroy two divine powers? Although the Hall of Light and the Palace of the Fire God are not the strongest on Eighteenth Heaven, they are not easily destroyed by just anyone.”
“That’s why I called you here.” Wu Tianji’s voice was serious. “This David is not an ordinary person.”
He took out a piece of jade from his sleeve and probed it with his divine sense. The information in the jade formed a light screen and appeared in the center of the council hall.
David’s image appeared on the screen: a young man with long black hair tied neatly with a gray ribbon, dark purple eyes, a cold face, wearing a gray robe, and a purple long sword hanging from his waist.
“David, a Daoist cultivator, whose cultivation method is unknown, but is suspected of mastering the Great Luo Golden Scripture.”
Wu Tianji’s voice resounded in the council hall, “Cultivation: When he was at the eighth rank of the True Immortal Realm, he finished off the Holy Light Heavenly Venerate of the fifth rank of the Golden Immortal Realm. After forty days of seclusion, he broke through to the first rank of the Golden Immortal Realm, penetrated the Heavenly Flame Capital’s Heavenly Fire Divine Fire Formation with a single sword, and finished off Yan Wuji, the fifth rank peak of the Golden Immortal Realm.”
The information on the screen appeared one by one, and each piece of information made the high-ranking members of the Protoss gasp in shock.
A Level Eight True Immortal Realm finished off a Level Five Golden Immortal Realm?
A level one Golden Immortal Realm Sword was able to destroy the ancient formation?
This combat capability had exceeded their understanding.
“That’s not possible!”
Lei Wanjun was the first to speak, his voice filled with disbelief, “There are six minor realms between the eighth level of the True Immortal Realm and the fifth level of the Golden Immortal Realm, and each minor realm is an insurmountable chasm. Even the monstrous geniuses of ancient times couldn’t possibly finish off their opponents by crossing the six minor realms!”
“The facts speak for themselves.”
Wu Tianji’s voice was calm, “The Light Palace and the Fire God Palace have been destroyed, that is an indisputable fact.”
Lei Wanjun opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn’t say anything.
He couldn’t refute it at all.
The news of the destruction of the Hall of Light and the Palace of the Fire God had spread throughout Nineteenth Heaven. Countless divine cultivators had witnessed the tragic scene following the destruction of the Fire God Palace. Thousands of corpses lay scattered across the square, and red blood stained the entire square.
It’s not fake.
“Who exactly is this David?”
An old man in a white robe asked.
He radiated holy light; he was an elder of the Holy Light Palace, a top-level sect of the Light Palace, holding an important position on Nineteenth Heaven.
Holy Light Heavenly Venerate was sent to Eighteenth Heaven by Holy Light Palace.
Now that the Holy Light Heavenly Venerate was dead, the Holy Light Temple had also lost face.
“Checked.”
Wu Tianji said, “David was originally a cultivator from the lower realm, but his exact identity is unknown. He cultivated the power of chaos and supposedly received the inheritance of the Great Luo Golden Scripture, as well as a piece of the key to the Chaos Dao Palace.”
“Chaos power?” Lei Wanjun’s eyes suddenly widened. “The legendary power of chaos?”
“That’s right.”
Wu Tianji nodded. “The power of chaos is the source of all elements and the source of all laws. Those who cultivate the power of chaos have combat power that far exceeds their peers. This is why he is able to cross realms to finish off his opponents.”
Silence enveloped the council meeting room.
Everyone wore grim expressions.
The power of chaos is a legendary thing, it is said that only ancient gods and demons of chaos are able to master it.
Now, a Daoist cultivator has mastered the power of chaos, which is definitely not good news for the gods.
“He also obtained the key fragment to the Chaos Dao Palace.”
Wu Tianji continued, “I don’t need to explain what the Chaos Dao Palace is, right? It’s the palace of the Daoist patriarch. It’s said that, if you enter this palace and comprehend just a little of its contents, you can advance to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.”
