Simultaneously traversing: traversing countless heavens

Chapter 94 Am I the only one of the Quanxing?

As soon as Zhou Yi finished speaking, the vast square was so quiet you could hear a pin drop, before being overwhelmed by an even stronger wave of astonishment and doubt.

Which of the leaders of the various schools of Taoism is not a person who has experienced many storms and ruled a region?

At this moment, they couldn't help but look at each other, seeing the same astonishment and disbelief in each other's eyes.

When have I ever seen such an arrogant and unscrupulous young man?

His outrageous claim of unifying the righteous and the evil paths was already astonishing, but now he dares to challenge all the heroes of the world with his own strength.

This goes beyond the word "arrogance"; it's downright—

"Is he insane?!"

Whispers and anger spread rapidly among the elders of each faction.

Zhang Jingqing, the Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain, frowned deeply. His deep voice suppressed the noise as he looked directly at the figure on the stone steps. His words carried the reproach and bewilderment of an elder: "Sect Leader Zuo! Is what this young man said merely the hot-blooded recklessness of youth, or is it the true intention of your Reverse Life Sect? This matter is no small thing; it cannot be treated lightly! We have come here to see you and to hear an explanation!"

His question revealed the true feelings of the vast majority of righteous leaders present.

Your disciple has a problem with his mind? Or have you, Zuo Ruotong, also lost your mind?

What the hell are you guys doing, Reverse Life Sect?!

First, he lowered himself to leave the Xuanmen sect, and then he made this outrageous statement.

From the perspective of other sects, the Reverse Life Sect was simply unbearable to look at; there wasn't a single normal person in the sect, from top to bottom.

Countless gazes, heavy with pressure, were cast upon the highly respected leader of the Reverse Life Sect.

Zuo Ruotong remained calm, facing hundreds of gazes, and slowly stepped out of the shadows of the main hall, stopping half a step behind Zhou Yi. Her position and posture spoke volumes.

He faced Zhang Jingqing, and also the heroes of the world, his voice clear and unwavering: "Master Zhang, fellow practitioners."

"The words in the Book of Changes are all from the heart and represent the common will of the entire Reverse Life Sect. This matter is no child's play. The Reverse Life Sect is willing to devote all its strength to support him and his chosen path."

"boom--!"

These words are even more shocking than Zhou Yi's declaration just now!

It definitively confirms that today's earth-shattering situation was not a crazy solo performance by a genius disciple, but a high-stakes gamble by the entire Reverse Life Sect, risking its thousand-year reputation and future!

Zuo Ruotong actually placed the sect leader's authority and the sect's fate on this young disciple!

"Nonsense! Absolutely nonsense!"

"Is the Reverse Life Sect trying to isolate itself from the world?!"

Anger and shock erupted, and the righteous camp was in an uproar. Many people's faces showed anger at being offended and deep confusion.

Meanwhile, on the Quanxing side, a restless commotion, a mixture of violence, excitement, and astonishment, suddenly arose.

The long-suppressed evil, under this strange and high-pressure situation, is like dry firewood doused with oil.

"Hehehe————"

A sharp, piercing laugh suddenly rang out, drowning out some of the noise.

It is well known that people who like to stir up trouble will not miss any opportunity to cause trouble and show off in front of so many people.

Yuan Jingui stepped forward from the crowd, his face bearing his usual unsettling, mocking smile. His triangular eyes narrowed as he stared directly at Zhou Yi high above. His voice was deliberately raised, full of provocation: "What an arrogant brat! What big words! You think you can take on all of us by yourself? Ha! It's that old devil Zuo Ruotong behind you—uh!"

"Yuan Jingui!" Wugensheng shouted sharply, his expression changing drastically as he tried to stop him.

But it was too late.

On the high platform, everyone could only see Zhou Yi's gaze casually sweep towards the direction where Yuan Jingui was, glancing at him indifferently.

There were no hand seals or incantations, no bursts of breath, and not even any obvious killing intent.

However-

"Bang!!!"

A dull thud, like a heavy hammer striking thick leather!

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Yuan Jingui, who was shouting loudly, was hit head-on by an invisible, extremely fast siege hammer!

The mockery on his face instantly twisted into extreme terror and pain. His chest visibly caved in, his feet left the ground, and he flew backward!

fast!

It was so fast that most people only saw a blurry afterimage!

No one can stop it!

"boom!"

Then came an even heavier impact.

Yuan Jingui's body slammed heavily onto a thick, decorative stone wall at the edge of the square, dozens of steps away. The force was so great that the ground trembled slightly.

Then, like a lump of mud, he slowly slid down the wall to the ground, his limbs twisted at bizarre angles, his head tilted to one side, his eyes wide open, staring blankly at the sky, already lifeless.

Blood slowly seeped out from beneath him, staining a patch of bluestone slab red.

One fatal blow!

What's even more chilling is that the stone wall that withstood such a terrible impact remained completely intact, without even a single crack!

It was as if that terrifying power, capable of destroying gold and jade, was "erased" by some invisible rule the moment it touched the wall, and only affected Yuan Jingui!

"hiss--!"

This time, gasps of shock echoed throughout the venue, more synchronized and more terrified than ever before!

Regardless of whether they were righteous or evil, many young disciples turned pale and instinctively took a half-step back. Even many veteran experts felt their pupils suddenly contract and a chill run down their spines.

Many of them weren't afraid because they didn't understand the methods, but because of this domineering way of killing members of the Quanxing Sect in front of so many people. Was the Nisheng Sect going to war with the Quanxing Sect? Were they playing this big?!

"Your Mightiness!"

Within the Quanxing faction, an old and shrill female voice suddenly rang out, filled with barely suppressed shock and anger.

Among the Quanxing people, an old woman named Wu Ruilan, with a hunched back and leaning on a dragon-shaped cane, slammed her cane heavily on the ground!

"Clang!" The sound of metal clashing against metal was jarring.

She glared at Zhou Yi high above, her voice trembling with anger: "How utterly arrogant! To resort to such ruthless tactics over a mere disagreement! Does he think that the Quanxing sect is without any support?!"

""

"Sect Leader!" On the other side, the hot-tempered, tall-bearded man couldn't help but growl at Wugensheng, his facial muscles twitching. "Yuan Jingui only said one thing, what's wrong with that! You just stood by and watched your disciples be killed innocently?!"

All eyes of the Quanxing disciples were focused on their sect leader. Anger, bloodlust, fear, and anticipation—various emotions intertwined on their faces.

Wugensheng remained silent.

He had a premonition that something was wrong the moment Yuan Jingui spoke, but in the end he couldn't stop him.

At this moment, he slowly raised his eyes and met the white figure on the high platform across the vast distance.

There was no angry roar, no fierce questioning; his eyes were indescribably complex, containing helplessness, solemnity, and a hint of cold understanding.

He knew it perfectly well in his heart.

This was not an accident, nor was it an impulsive act.

This is an open conspiracy, a form of coercion.

Even if that idiot Yuan Jingui hadn't jumped out, there would have been other opportunities.

Today, the other party is determined to force him, Wugensheng, to formally step into this situation as the leader of Quanxing Sect and accept this challenge head-on!

He had nowhere to run!

Wugensheng slowly stood up from the bluestone.

This simple gesture attracted almost all the attention in the room.

He patted off non-existent dust from the hem of his clothes, his posture still carrying a hint of laziness, but an invisible pressure began to emanate from him.

He looked up at Zhou Yi, who was high above him, his voice not loud, but clearly carrying a hint of mockery and weariness: "Is it really necessary to force him like this?"

On the high platform, Zhou Yi, upon hearing this, asked in a very soft voice, his emotions unreadable.

"Am I the one who represents the entirety of the sect?"

Upon hearing this, many people were taken aback, then suddenly realized what was happening, and their expressions became extremely strange.

Yes!

When did the roles of good and evil seem to have been reversed?

The leaders of the righteous path, the Rebellious Life Sect, and their representatives, who should have been law-abiding and reasonable, acted tyrannically and decisively, killing at will.

The evil Quanxing sect, known for its lawlessness and recklessness, appeared timid and hesitant at this moment.

What are you, Wugensheng, the leader of Quanxing Sect, pretending to be, a weak and helpless white lotus flower?

Aren't you, Quanxing, always vengeful and intolerant of the slightest provocation?

In front of so many people, your disciple was killed on the spot. Such a disgrace! According to your usual style, shouldn't you have already rushed over with bloodshot eyes and howling?

What are you waiting for?

What are you hesitating about?

"Rootless!"

Zhou Yi's voice suddenly rose, booming like thunder, resounding in everyone's ears, carrying an undeniable force: "What are you still hesitating about?!"

This shout was like the last straw, not only pressing down on Wugensheng, but also striking the hearts of everyone in Quanxing.

"Sect Leader!"

"Give the order!"

"Kill him!"

"Avenge Brother Yuan!"

Within the Quanxing faction, the bloodlust could no longer be suppressed, and roars and urging voices rose and fell. Pairs of bloodshot eyes stared intently at Wugensheng, awaiting his command. The malevolent energy of the evil path was completely ignited by the blood of their comrades and the public humiliation.

Wugensheng closed his eyes and took a deep breath. No one knew what his inner turmoil was like at that moment.

If he had a choice, he would never let anyone from Quanxing wade into this bottomless, murky water, where fortune and misfortune are uncertain.

This idea might seem utterly ridiculous to the leader of Quanxing Sect—the leader of a thousand-year-old evil cult that advocates unrestrained desires and no taboos is actually considering the lives of his disciples.

He, Wugensheng, is probably the most "incompetent" and "unqualified" leader in the history of the Quanxing Sect.

But----

Does being a person of pure nature mean you deserve to die?!

Do rotten people have no right to survive in the cracks?!

So they deserve to be used as pawns, cannon fodder, and crushed at will?!

Suddenly, Wugensheng opened his eyes.

The last trace of struggle and tenderness in his eyes completely faded away, replaced by a frozen pool and a near-desperate, frenzied fighting spirit burning deep within it.

He knew that he was no match for Zhou Yi, and that no one present was his match either.

But so what!

Am I to be manipulated by you?!

I accept your advice today not because I'm afraid of death, but because it was my own decision!

Wugensheng gazed at the white figure high above, who seemed like a god looking down upon all living beings. With all his might, he let out a suppressed yet seemingly soul-deep curse and warning: "Zhou Yi—!!!"

"If you dare let them—die in vain—"

"I, Wugensheng, will fight you to the death in this life, the next life, and all eternity!!!"

The roar was not like a horn of attack, but rather like a mournful accusation by the officiant before a grand funeral.

Before the roar had even faded, Wugensheng's eyes were already filled with pure and violent killing intent.

He stopped looking at anyone, suddenly raised his arm, and extended a finger, pointing straight and decisively at the Book of Changes at the end of the stone steps.

Then, from between his teeth, three cold, resolute words burst forth: "Quanxing—"

"At your command!!!"

The air in the square seemed to freeze instantly. Both the righteous and the evil factions held their breath.

Wu Gensheng's chest heaved violently, and his last word, like a bloodstained javelin thrown out of the sky, tore through the air: "Kill!!!"

"Kill him!!!"

"roar-!!!"

The moment the order was given, the entire faction was like a powder keg that had been ignited!

The long-suppressed ferocity, violence, thirst for blood, desire to challenge the strong, and instinctive obedience to the sect leader's orders erupted suddenly!

Dozens or even hundreds of streams of Qi, varying in strength but all filled with an eerie aura, shot into the sky, their colors mottled, stirring up the wind and clouds!

A chaotic scene of people and deafening roars!

An unprecedented battle between one person and one faction, a battle of vast disparity between good and evil, and even the entire world of supernatural beings, has begun, drawing a bloody curtain!

On the high platform, facing the surging waves, Zhou Yi simply raised one hand slowly, his eyes devoid of joy or sorrow, as if preparing to brush the dust off his sleeve.

Please vote with your monthly tickets and give me a reward!

I really racked my brains, but I feel like fighting is easier to write about.

Brothers, we're going to be featured in the recommendations in a few days, so make sure to catch up on updates! It won't really affect anything, though, since I'm just a small-time flop...

I'll continue writing tonight when I have nothing to do, and I'll post it as soon as I'm done.
