The Qingxuan Sect's army was completely wiped out, leaving only one Corpse Gu Zhenren. Although Corpse Gu Zhenren defected to the Qingxuan Sect, strictly speaking, he was not considered a practitioner of the Qingxuan Sect.
"How is this possible? The Qingxuan Sect has the powerful Martial Emperor Shi Gu Zhenren here. How could they be completely wiped out?" Upon hearing this, the cultivator looked at his companion in disbelief, and then continued, "Could it be that Shi Gu Zhenren didn't try his best?"
Shi Gu Zhenren was a demon himself, and he surrendered to Qingxuan Sect only because of the situation. Even if he switched sides in the battle, it was not impossible. Apart from this explanation, there seemed to be no other explanation that made sense. Otherwise, with Shi Gu Zhenren, the Martial Emperor, around, Xuanming Sect would have no chance of winning.
"At the beginning, I also guessed this, but after careful inquiries, I found out that not only did Master Shi Gu not turn against us, but he also tried his best, but still failed to turn the tide of the battle." The man said with emotion.
"This... How is this possible..."
Even after getting confirmation again, the cultivator still looked incredulous. Master Corpse Gu did not turn against them and even tried his best, but Zheng Tong and the other two actually died
"All of this is because of one person." The man sighed and continued, "According to the news, the reason for this situation is because of a cultivator from the Xuanming Sect who has the strength to rival Corpse Gu Zhenren."
Can he fight against the Corpse Gu Master
The cultivator was startled, then frowned and said, "If I remember correctly, the cultivators of Xuanming Sect are all at the peak of Martial King, right? A Martial King at the peak is as powerful as a Martial Emperor, and there is also a one-star Martial Emperor in the middle stage, who is good at insects, beasts and puppets?"
It is not unheard of that a peak Martial King could survive at the hands of a Martial Emperor, or even fight against a weak one-star early Martial Emperor. However, it is too unbelievable that he could fight against a one-star mid-stage Martial Emperor, who is also a Corpse Gu True Person and has invincible combat power in the same realm.
"I don't dare to believe it either, but this incident was witnessed by a cultivator from afar, so it can't be fake." The man laughed bitterly and continued, "It is said that the cultivator who fought against Corpse Gu Master was a cultivator named Yan Jian Wang!"
"Flame Sword King?"
The practitioner was stunned and muttered to himself, "I seem to have heard this name somewhere!"
"I remember now. King Yanjian is the cultivator who has become famous in recent decades and has been killing demons everywhere." As if he had thought of something, the cultivator immediately exclaimed.
"Then do you know the origin of this Flame Sword King?" the man immediately asked upon hearing this.
"It is said that he is a cultivator from Tianqian Palace." The cultivator said uncertainly, "The origin of King Yanjian is quite mysterious. We only know that he has the Qianyuan Bell in his hand. He has been hunting down evil demons in recent decades, and even killed the Blood Demon Ancestor before."
"Blood Demon Ancestor, that's impossible?" the man said with a look of disbelief.
The Blood Demon Ancestor is a one-star Martial Emperor peak warrior, and is extremely good at saving his life. How could a Martial King cultivator possibly kill a veteran Martial Emperor like the Blood Demon Ancestor! The fact that Yan Jian Wang has the power to fight against Corpse Gu Zhenren is incredible, and the fact that he has the power to kill the Blood Demon Ancestor is simply legendary!
"The Blood Demon Ancestor was seriously injured and his strength was greatly reduced. Moreover, there was also a peak Martial King cultivator from the Xuanming Sect who took action at that time. It was not just King Yanjian who did it alone." The cultivator hurriedly explained.
I see!
Hearing this, the man couldn't help but nodded. If this was the case, then it made sense. Otherwise, he would never believe that a cultivator at the peak of the Martial King level had the power to kill a one-star Martial Emperor cultivator at the peak. If he had such power, even the Corpse Gu Master would not have been able to survive.
After all, the Tianji Palace has restricted the number of people, and it is impossible for Master Shigu to bring the puppet in. His strength is also weakened compared to when he was in the outside world. Everyone doesn't know that Master Shigu's corpse puppet clone has been directly killed by the Tianji Palace.
“Tian Qian Palace, if there weren’t constant fighting among the three major forces in our star field, it would be no weaker than the Tian Qian star field at its peak.” The man said with emotion.
The constant fighting among the three major forces weakened the strength of the Damo Star Region. Resources were dispersed, geniuses fell, and the Damo Star Region was unable to become strong.
The cultivator glanced at his companion and said with a wry smile, "This is just between you and me, don't say it outside. The three major forces have been fighting for countless years, and it is not something you and I can change."
"I'm just saying it casually." The man shrugged and continued, "In fact, if the Xuanming Sect can continue to develop like this, maybe in the future it will really have the hope of unifying the entire Damuo Star Region."
"It's not that easy!"
After this, the cultivator smiled bitterly and shook his head. Now that the Xuanming Sect has risen, the Qingxuan Sect and the Qingxuan Sect have begun to suppress the Xuanming Sect secretly. If the Xuanming Sect continues to grow, the Qingxuan Sect and the Qingxuan Sect will definitely unite to deal with the Xuanming Sect. Although the Xuanming Sect is the strongest of the three major forces, it is not so easy to face two major cultivation forces with similar strengths alone.
In history, not only the Xuanming Sect had grown stronger, but the other two cultivation forces had also grown stronger, but they all declined under the joint suppression of the other two forces. The three major forces have always maintained a balance. Unless one of the cultivation forces can give birth to a high-level martial emperor, or even a stronger existence, it is possible to break the situation and unify the Damo Star Region.
Yang Qi and his five companions who were recovering in the canyon did not know that the story of their previous battle with Corpse Gu had spread. Except for Tong Shan who needed some time to recover because of performing bloodline martial arts, the others had consumed their energy and vitality, so it only took half a day for Yang Qi and his four companions to fully recover.
After everyone recovered, they immediately distributed the spoils of killing Zheng Tong and the other two. This time, Yang Qi took all the corpses of the insect beasts because the dark beetle was about to evolve.
Snap!
The dark beetle opened its mouth wide and swallowed the corpse of an insect beast in no time. After observing the insect beast closely, everyone found that it was actually a beetle-like insect beast, and it didn't look special.
Luo Ye withdrew his gaze from the dark beetle, and immediately looked at Yang Qi beside him, and asked curiously, "Brother Yang, how did you get this insect beast? Before, your insect beast killed four insect beasts with similar strength to yours by itself."
Yang Qi's insect beast doesn't seem to have any obvious weaknesses and has strong combat power. If they can get such an insect beast, even if it is just used for auxiliary purposes, it will be of great help to them.
Woo~woo~
As Luo Ye finished speaking, the dark beetle immediately began to make low sounds, as if it understood what Luo Ye said and was showing off its strength. (To be continued)
