Checking in for 100,000 Years

Chapter 1084: Chapter 1084: The Devouring Beast of Shadow Souls Reemerges

”According to rumors in the world, you are merely at the True God Realm Third Level, so how did you come to the Master Hall of our Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect?”

The elder in black swiftly scanned the surroundings and, upon discovering only Ye Yun, felt a slight ease in his heart.

This matter is laced with eerie mystery.

The young man in white opposite him, though with low cultivation base, had managed to slip in unnoticed, which was highly abnormal.

Could it be...

An astonishing thought surfaced in the elder’s mind.

He stared intently at Ye Yun, frowned and asked, ”Who are you? Why are you disguised as Cang Ming’s disciple and infiltrating our Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect? This joke, isn’t it too much, sir!”

”You talk too much. My master, his venerable self is not in your Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect, where exactly has he gone?”

Ye Yun frowned slightly and lightly struck out with a palm.

An illusory big hand suddenly appeared before the elder in black.

Bam!

The palm print landed on the chest. The elder cried out miserably and flew backward.

The stone door of the hall was smashed open, and he flew directly to the plaza before falling.

This palm strike by Ye Yun was merely intended as a lesson, not too forceful.

Even so, the elder in black still sustained minor injuries.

The elder swayed to his feet and wiped away the blood at the corner of his mouth.

The commotion in the Master Hall instantly drew the attention of many high-level experts of the Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect.

Figures flickered, and black-robed elders of the Divine Sovereign Realm Sixth and Seventh Layer or higher appeared all around.

”Master, what happened just now? Who struck you?”

A tall, thin elder in black asked.

”This person claims to be a disciple of Cang Ming, the Ninth Hall Master of the Ten Thousand Monster God Temple. He is the Ye-surnamed youth we’ve been seeking, and he suddenly infiltrated the Master Hall and attacked me...”

The master of the Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect wiped away the blood at the corner of his mouth and continued to speak solemnly as he stared at the white figure in the hall, ”This person’s cultivation base is very high, at least not beneath mine!”

”Master, how could a disciple of that old Cang Ming be so strong? That old fellow himself isn’t even as powerful as you!”

The gaunt elder frowned, gazing toward the depths of the hall, pondering, ”Could it be an impersonation?”

”I suspect the same, but this person doesn’t admit it...”

The master of the Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect said dispassionately.

Ye Yun stood with his hands behind his back, walked slowly to the broken hall’s entrance, and casually watched the black-robed elders.

”My master, his venerable self...

Was captured by you from the Ten Thousand Monster God Temple, but now he’s not in the Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect. Where did you take him?”

Ye Yun asked calmly.

”Your master...”

A black-robed elder was about to speak but was suddenly interrupted by the master of the Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect.

”We cannot say; our Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect cannot afford to offend them!”

The master of the Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect said covertly.

”Master, I think this person is somewhat unfathomable. Our Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect doesn’t need to engage with this person, causing loss among our ranks...”

The elder secretly communicated.

”What do you understand?”

The master of the Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect furiously scolded through communication, ”The Lei Family is a Divine King-level power, far beyond what our Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect can provoke! If they send a God King Realm expert to descend upon the Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect, our entire sect would cease to exist!”

”Master, you’re right...”

The elder sighed, shook his head, and spoke no further.

The other black-robed elders, although they didn’t hear the conversation between the two, vaguely deduced something.

After all, these individuals were elder-level figures within the Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect, high in status and knowledgeable in many matters.

”Must you really force me to act?”

Ye Yun looked coldly at the furtive congregation of the Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect.

These insignificant Divine Sovereign Realm ants, he was truly reluctant to bother killing them.

”Formation!”

The master of the Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect shouted angrily, and all the black-robed elders vanished into the void instantly.

Whooshing...

A black shield suddenly appeared above the Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect.

Within the shield, black gas resembling flames rapidly materialized.

Among the black gas, various black shadow souls floated, roaming constantly.

Most of these shadow souls were at the Divine Sovereign Realm, baring their fangs and claws, appearing fierce, emitting chilling screams.

”What formation is this?”

Ye Yun stepped out of the hall to the plaza, gazing at the sky, and asked indifferently.

”This is the Yin-Soul-Devouring Sky Formation, the sect-protecting formation of our Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect! Even if you are a God King Realm expert, today you shall not leave this place!”

A black-robed elder laughed arrogantly.

The Yin-Soul-Devouring Sky Formation is indeed the most formidable formation of the Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect.

All disciples of the Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect must capture many shadow souls annually to inject into this great formation.

Shadow souls devour one another, continuously growing.

With the accumulation over time, the number of shadow souls in this formation has become unimaginable.

As for the claim that the Yin-Soul-Devouring Sky Formation can slaughter a First Layer God King Realm expert, this black-robed elder was indeed somewhat exaggerating.

However, a half-step God King Realm expert would surely be suppressed by the formation.

As for a God King Realm, trapping them for a period... would pose no problem.

If they could trap and kill this youth in white within a certain time, it would be all the better.

If not, they would have the chance to quietly use the Teleportation Array to leave during the operation of the formation.

”Your Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect has indeed killed quite a few people...”

Looking at the haunting shadow souls, Ye Yun spoke calmly.

The Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect is notorious for its ruthless reputation and is identified with the evil path.

However, in the Divine Land, there is no overt hatred between the righteous and evil paths.

Therefore, an entity like the Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect, as long as it doesn’t impinge on the interests of righteous forces, won’t face annihilation.

Ultimately, it’s still the interests among various powers that reign supreme.

”Ye-surnamed, the cultivation technique you exhibited in the Yin Yang Cave, is it truly a certain inheritance from the Yin Yang Cave?”

The master of the Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect squinted slightly and asked solemnly.

The reason the Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect and Nine Battle Sect united to attack the Ten Thousand Monster God Temple was naturally out of envy for the Yin Yang Cave’s inheritance.

However.

The two forces ultimately returned empty-handed.

The Ye-surnamed fellow, at that time, had vanished to an unknown place.

So they had no choice but to abduct Palace Master Cang Ming, spread the word, intending to lure the Ye-surnamed here.

Unexpectedly, man proposes but heaven disposes.

En route, they were intercepted by Lei Family experts descending from the sky, who demanded Palace Master Cang Ming.

Regarding the reason, the other party didn’t disclose, and they dared not ask.

”Indeed—so what?”

Ye Yun smiled calmly.

Suddenly, his palm moved, and a round black monster appeared in the void beside him.

It was a Devouring Beast of Shadow Souls housed in the storage.

”Master, I’m finally out again, haha, so happy!”

The Devouring Beast of Shadow Souls laughed.

”See? We are surrounded by a formation, and these are all shadow souls...”

Ye Yun pointed with his hand.

”Wow, this is truly fantastic!”

The Devouring Beast of Shadow Souls shouted excitedly, its round body slightly moved, rising immediately into the air.

At the moment the Devouring Beast of Shadow Souls appeared, all the shadow souls revealed terrified expressions.

The operation speed of the Yin-Soul-Devouring Sky Formation also slowed at this instant.

”What... happened?”

An elder in black shouted with a face full of shock.

”What kind of demon beast is this? It has such a deterring effect on shadow souls?”

The master of the Devouring Heavenly Demon Sect looked somber, cold light flashing in his eyes.
