Chapter 203: Zhong Ya Is Here!

Whoosh!

…

At the Feast of Ziyun, which was now dead silent, bloody rain fell, and the droplets splashed clearly and audibly.

Chen Dandan’s body and face were fully splashed with bloody water. As for her, she was rooted to the ground as if her entire body had been stunned, staring at the youth in the air shakily.

Apart from a bunch of Primal Core adepts from the Divine Light Sect, as well as Yun Lu, who appeared to be rather indifferent, the other attendees were all extremely shocked and fearful.

A moment ago, the group of Primal Core adepts from the Xuanyin Sect had rushed out and surrounded the youth.

At that moment, everyone had clearly seen that the Xuanyin Sect’s Distinguished Elder, Qi Ming, had a golden halo surrounding him, which was very likely to be the unique golden inner Yuan that Golden Essence adepts possessed.

As for the Xuanyin Sect’s Young Lord Yuan, Liu Yi, the Xuanyin Sect’s head elder, Bai Shitang as well as another elder from the Xuanyin Sect, their bodies were wrapped with silver inner Yuan.

These were the three late Primal Core adepts.

As for the other four Primal Core adepts of the Xuanyin Sect, two had a pure white inner Yuan halo while the other two had a milky, pale white fog around them.

They were mid Primal Core and early Primal Core adepts respectively.

These were the people who were all mass beheaded by the youth in the blink of an eye!

Thud!

Thud! Thud!

When the corpses of the group of the Xuanyin Sect’s Primal Core adepts hit the ground, the entire crowd slowly regained full consciousness and their faces all had on expressions of extreme shock, fear and bewilderment.

All of them slowly cast their glances once again on the youth floating in the sky. He held a folding fan in his hands and was dressed in white as if he were a scholar and was floating scarily above all.

“The Golden Essence adept… was killed by him just like that? His brains even flew and splattered everywhere!”

“Within the time it takes to take two breaths, all the Primal Core adepts from the Xuanyin Sect, including the Golden Essence adept Qi Ming, head elder Liu Yi, the two mid Primal Core elders and two early Primal Core disciples were all killed!?”

“In front of this youth, the status of the Golden Essence adept and the early Primal Core disciples seemed to mean nothing! He managed to kill them all casually and cut out their brains…”

Hushed voices began to ring out in the setting of the Feast of Ziyun as everyone began to voice their opinion on what had just happened.

Now, for the other three big sects who had been watching the spectacle gleefully, be it those from the Tianwu Sect, Thousand-year Sect or the Xuesha Sect, their expressions had changed to that of fear. In fact, they were so afraid that their faces were now extremely pale. Even the Golden Essence adepts within these three big sects were now glancing at the youth floating steadily in the sky with a gaze of utmost fear and fright. They knew better than to delude themselves into thinking that the Golden Essence adept of the Xuanyin Sect, Qi Ming, had been killed simply due to carelessness.

Just now, when the youth had taken action, his body had been moving extremely fast and had far surpassed them! Furthermore, utilizing the fan in his hand, the youth’s attacking prowess was extremely strong and they could not guarantee that they could win over him even if they all joined forces and worked hand in hand.

This was scary!

Way too scary!

“Although his inner Yuan is only that of a Silver Essence adept, silver, but… that thickness and pureness is double the strength of a normal Silver Essence adept’s inner Yuan!”

“It’s comparable to the perfect fusion of three Silver Essence adepts’ inner Yuan… this isn’t any weaker than a Golden Essence adept’s inner Yuan! A Golden Essence adept’s inner Yuan is only stronger by double of a normal Silver Essence adept’s inner Yuan…”

“That folding fan of his has got to be a heavenly spirit weapon! Not only that, it should be a unique heavenly spirit weapon!”

At this very moment, everyone, including the Divine Light Sect’s Golden Essence adept, Ci Xuan, stared on with growing intensity at the folding fan in the youth’s hand.

Well, that was all they could do.

Although they stared on intensely, none of them held on to any greedy ideas of acquiring the fan.

It was not that they did not want to own the fan. It was more of the fact that everyone knew they were not eligible to own this item.

Based on the showcase of ability by the youth, if they dared to thirst after this object, they would probably face the same fate as the Xuanyin Sect’s adepts…

“No…!”

A cry of utmost shock and confusion rang out. This was Chen Dandan, who had now regained full consciousness. She had collapsed to the ground, shaking her head continually with a look of horror in her eyes. “No… This is impossible! This is simply impossible!”

“How could he be so powerful? This is impossible! It’s definitely impossible!”

“I must be dreaming! I must be dreaming!”

“Yes, I’m just dreaming! This is all a bad dream!”

Chen Dandan sat wearily on the ground and glanced at the piercing fresh blood surrounding her. Her entire body trembled intensely. The sight of the fresh blood hurt her eyes and caused her to feel limp and weak.

Did Chen Dandan truly think this was all a bad dream? No…

Seeing as Zhou Donghuang had floated in the air and become a Primal Core adept, Chen Dandan had already known that she was not merely dreaming.

Now, her cries of the situation being a dream was but her desperate attempt to forcefully console herself. Chen Dandan feared that she would reach a point where her organs would burst and her entire body would explode with horror.

The atmosphere in the air felt thick and oppressive all of a sudden.

“I say, I can’t believe three years was all it took for you to become powerful enough to kill all the elders in our the Xuanyin Sect!”

An old voice, which was still energetic and full of vigor, rang out from afar.

Although the voice came from a distance, it pierced the air with a shocking intensity and flowed to the Feast of Ziyun, into the ears of everyone present.

This person’s voice was heard even before he had appeared physically.

“Teacher!”

Upon hearing this voice, Chen Dandan, who had previously collapsed onto the ground with four trembling limbs, now stood up like someone who had been injected with vigor, her face flushed with color and relief.

Well, a second later, the voices echoing around her caused Chen Dandan to collapse on the ground once again.

“Chen Dandan called out to the voice and called it, ‘Teacher?’”

“Is that the other Golden Essence adept of the Xuanyin Sect, their strongest elder, Zhong Ya?”

“Well, this youth managed to kill the Xuanyin Sect’s Distinguished Elder, Golden Essence adept Qi Ming… Even if Zhong Ya were stronger than Qi Ming, how much stronger could he possibly be?”

“He is definitely not this youth’s match! This youth’s strength, although not yet surpassing that of a Dharma adept, is definitely enough to crush any adept that is below the Dharma stage…”

…

No one present here, including the people of the four big sects of the powerful supreme sect of Ziyun, as well as the lucky Connate adepts of the Xuanyin Sect who had survived, believed that the Golden Essence adept elder, Zhong Ya, was strong enough to defeat Zhou Donghuang.

Chen Dandan began to have her doubts as well.

Hua!

Hualala!

In the calm surroundings of the Feast of Ziyun, a grey shadow suddenly appeared. This figure’s voice was especially bright, and his robes swayed with the wind, making rattling noises.

The owner of this grey shadow was an old man dressed in long grey robes.

Zhou Donghuang identified this figure in an instant.

This was the Golden Essence adept that had appeared in the Valley of the Medicine Masters three years ago, the Xuanyin Sect’s elder, Zhong Ya.

“Hm?”

Once he realized that Zhong Ya looked much more youthful than he had three years ago, Zhou Donghuang was momentarily stunned before he regained his composure. His eyes flashed a few times.

“Young man, three years ago, I did not kill you simply because I was afraid that the deed would interfere with my crossing to the Dharma stage… I can’t believe that three years later, you’d dare to appear here!”

Zhong Ya stared steely at Zhong Donghuang and spoke in a tone devoid of emotion. “Since you’re here, your life will be lost today, here and now.”

“Teacher!”

Just as Zhong Ya had finished his sentence, Chen Dandan shouted out in a panicky fashion. “You’d better leave! You’d better leave!”

“He killed Elder Qi Ming, head elder and our strongest brothers! You should wait till you’ve crossed over into the Dharma stage before challenging this Zhou Donghuang and avenging their deaths!”

At this very moment, all Chen Dandan wanted was for her teacher to quickly flee and enter the Dharma stage before returning to seek out Zhou Donghuang for revenge.

With Zhou Donghuang’s showcase of ability earlier on, unless Zhong Ya managed to enter the Dharma stage, he would definitely be no match for Zhou Donghuang!

Ah!

Upon hearing Chen Dandan’s words, Zhong Ya’s face changed. He glanced meaningfully to the side and saw that there were tens of corpses on the stage of the Feast of Ziyun, which included all his sect’s people apart from his personal disciple Chen Dandan, who had collapsed on the floor.

These corpses were either rid of their brains or were separated from them.

Among the corpses, there was the sect’s main disciple, the Xuanyin Sect’s head elder, Bai Shitang, as well as his other disciples, the sect’s Distinguished Elder Qi Ming as well as Liu Yi.

“Qi… Qi Ming?”

Towards the death of Bai Shitang and Liu Yi, Zhong Ya simply felt rage. However, the death of Qi Ming was something unfathomable to Zhong Ya. After all, Qi Ming was also a Golden Essence warrior.

Yet, he had died here?

“You…”

When Zhong Ya looked up once again at Zhou Donghuang, who was floating in the air a short distance away from him, his eyes were full of confusion and disbelief. “As a mere late Primal Core adept, you managed to kill a Golden Essence adept?”

Zhou Donghuang stared back at Zhong Ya calmly and said, “Three years ago, I warned you about this… Zhong Ya, as you brought away Chen Dandan against my wishes, you brought a grudge with me upon your entire sect… Today, I, Zhou Donghuang, am here to put an end to this entire grudge.”

Once Zhou Donghuang had spoken these words, everyone who was present noticed that the youth dressed in white had appeared here and massacred the people of the Xuanyin Sect because of Chen Dandan.

She was the root of all their troubles!

At this moment, several people turned to glance at Chen Dandan and collectively had the thought of her being a true troublemaker…

“Hahaha… Hahahahahaha…”

Zhong Ya laughed without any hint of mockery in his tone, and his laughter grew with time. Afterwards, he stopped suddenly as everyone looked on with shock.

After laughing, Zhong Ya shot a glance that was as cold as steel at Zhou Donghuang. “Young man, if you had taken action three days ago, you probably could have done as you pleased and killed me, as well as destroyed the entire the Xuanyin Sect.

“Instead, you chose to take action only today. Your goals are fated to stay as mere dreams forever!”

Almost immediately after Zhong Ya had spoken, a strong scent unfurled from his body, and this was followed by a gust of black power that flew out from within.

Within an instant, a shadow about one-foot tall rose from Zhong Ya’s body. It was about the size of a small hill and the shape of a black raven, standing upright.

Surrounding this one-foot tall shadow of a black raven, there was a small trail of black halo that wrapped around him like flowing water, giving off a strong yet unique scent.

Although Zhong Ya was not near the attendees of the Feast of Ziyun, the onlookers who were weaker were still overwhelmed with this scent. Some flushed red while others even began to bleed internally.

“Is this… Dharma!?”

Many immediately averted their eyes.
