Chapter Nine: The Divine Powers of the Vajra Prajna Realm (Section One)
Wang Yulong is visiting this Eastern mysterious country for the first time, where his ancestral clan once lived. Even in such a northern city that is not particularly commendable, he finds himself captivated and reluctant to leave.
Just because others cannot, does not mean I cannot. This is the competitive spirit inherent in all intelligent beings. Out of confidence in themselves, five elite masters of the Six Extremes Heavenly Path boldly threw down a challenge to Yue Peng.
Initially, Zhang Yu was drawn to the connections that Jia Fuli and Yue Peng had, which is why he specifically requested Jia Fuli to come. Although both were part of the Anti-Demon Alliance, their statuses were vastly different. According to the internal hierarchy of the Anti-Demon Alliance, there are four levels: "Mountain, Sea, Wind, and Cloud." Zhang Yu holds the highest rank, the "Mountain Level," while Jia Fuli holds the lowest, the "Cloud Level." Zhang Yu indeed possesses this authority. Moreover, Jia Fuli holds a sense of admiration for this legendary figure. Therefore, despite knowing that Zhang Yu was acting in a personal capacity, she readily agreed. Zhang Yu is at the highest "Mountain Level," and Jia Fuli is at the lowest "Cloud Level." Zhang Yu indeed has this authority. Furthermore, Jia Fuli admires this legendary figure. Thus, even though she was aware that Zhang Yu was acting privately, she still agreed without hesitation. Additionally, she brought along a burden, hoping to contribute to this operation.
It was not merely out of a sense of responsibility, nor was he planning to assist Jiafuli. Rather, he had discovered that his enemy had also arrived in this city
A few days ago, Wang Yulong's girlfriend, feeling that there were hardly any attractions to enjoy in this city, decided to seek out some sightseeing spots on her own to relax. She left behind Wang Yulong, who was unwilling to leave, but they agreed on a time and place to meet.
To be honest, he greatly envied Zhang Yu's immense strength, and he even felt a tinge of envy towards Yue Peng, who had caused such chaos here. With the ability to disregard everything, one could simply break through the door and charge in to confront that demon warrior. There would be no need to wait in such a disheveled state on the street.
Yue Peng's actions are so ruthless, clearly intended to kill the chicken to scare the monkey, serving as a stern warning to all the monsters with intentions harmful to him. Facts speak louder than anything; demonstrating considerable strength can indeed make one think twice before acting.
The reason why the literati of ancient and modern China created a "jianghu" that has never existed in reality is probably to fulfill this desire
Since it is a "publicly funded trip," he naturally did not feel wronged. Although he did not go so far as to book a presidential suite, which would be excessively extravagant, he certainly lived quite comfortably. Accompanied by his close girlfriend, he has already been here for a week, doing nothing but leisurely wandering around each day.
Four-star hotels are now commonly built in medium to large cities across China. The Mingmen Hotel in Changchun is an example of such a high-end hotel
To understand, the executive-level figures of the Six Extremes Heavenly Path are already among the most powerful monsters in the world. Jiafu Li modestly claims that even with the alliance of Wang Yulong, they may not be able to withstand any opponent who can execute more than ten moves. Their strength is at least equal to, if not greater than, the Dark Angel that Yue Peng defeated last time. They annihilated five, and it is said that not even their primordial spirits managed to escape, resulting in a tragic demise.
The Arctic Legion should be stationed nearby, but Wang Yulong does not know exactly where. The entire Arctic Legion consists of approximately one hundred and fifty members, all of whom possess strength at the level of the five major enforcers. This alone demonstrates that the International Monster Alliance truly deserves its reputation as the world's foremost power group. Therefore, Wang Yulong does not dare to cast any spells for fear of being detected. Based on the information he has gathered in the past, he is certain that the demon warrior who killed his mentor is now one of the members of the Arctic Legion. This further underscores the International Monster Alliance's status as the world's leading power group. Thus, Wang Yulong refrains from using any spells, fearing detection. He intends to seize this opportunity to eliminate the opponent and avenge his mentor.
Yue Peng spoke straightforwardly, pointing out that the Earth Sovereign had already agreed to abandon this operation. Therefore, he instructed the five of them to leave immediately. It was not considered impolite.
Those with a certain degree of supernatural ability at least possess highly developed spiritual awareness. It is evident that Wang Yulong's two targets had long since detected his presence, and thus they both reacted calmly, each countering the surprise attack launched by Wang Yulong.
Under the supreme magical power of Zhang Yu, Jia Fuli and Wang Yulong joined in the excitement, watching a live broadcast through a spiritual wave television in a luxury suite at the Mingmen Hotel
The primordial spirit was not spared, and this behavior, akin to that found in illustrated books, is truly astonishing. Yue Peng's methods are indeed awe-inspiring.
Inside, contrary to Wang Yu Long's expectations, there was a fight. A man and a woman, both human, were being attacked by a group of monsters, whose numbers were double that of the humans and consisted of a single gender.
After being infuriated by the complete lack of such intentions, Yue Peng bluntly stated: "We speak based on strength; who needs to reason with you? Either get lost, or—die."
As for certain monster factions, most of the small-scale monster gangs in the area have already withdrawn. Conversely, those with solid backing have increased their manpower locally or requested assistance. The arrival of the Arctic Legion from the Holy Land Group and thirteen experts from the International Monster Alliance has further added to the unpredictable variables. In summary, the current atmosphere is one of heightened tension, where every sound is alarming and any moment could trigger a large-scale conflict among monsters
Everyone values their reputation and face, so naturally they do not agree. Moreover, the retreat of the Earth Emperor gives the impression that he is timid and afraid of trouble, thus he did not exert his full strength. Yue Peng is not necessarily remarkable either
Although I have attained enlightenment for many years and have long refined my temperament, it is indeed said that "the mountains and rivers may change, but one's nature is hard to alter." When my fierce temper erupts, I ruthlessly take lives, slaughtering five individuals one by one. My methods are straightforward, yet not excessively cruel. However, I show no mercy from the outset, leaving my opponents utterly defeated. Years of cultivation are completely destroyed in an instant.
As a useless appendage, Wang Yulong was thus left idle, merely eating plain rice
Even Zhang Yu, after watching this battle, cautioned Jia Fuli not to provoke this person for the time being and to observe the situation before making any decisions. Moreover, Jia Fuli herself was not certain that Yue Peng would support her.
We are merely tourists, and we have not offended you in any way, so what concern is it of yours
Demon power intensity and Lv: cultivation level
At that time, everyone was gathered to watch the members of the Six Extremes Heavenly Path being sought by Yue Peng, preparing to witness the spectacle. Various spells were employed, including Western crystal balls, the evil eye of black sorcery, the heavenly eye of the righteous path, and the thousand-mile illusion technique, among others. They observed this highly immersive negotiation.
He knew that relying on himself and those two humans, they were still no match for the four masters of the Arctic Legion. Therefore, this strike represented the life and death of the three individuals; if it failed, the consequences would be dire
As Wang Yulong was lost in thought and about to leave, he suddenly sensed a faint fluctuation of demonic energy, and his spirit was instantly jolted. He murmured softly, "Demonic power barrier"
He can also be considered an experienced demon-slaying expert; the title of "Paladin" bestowed upon Wang Yulong by the European Church is not merely for show. Although he is stationed in the UK to handle the exorcism affairs of the European Church there, his accumulated achievements are not particularly numerous
The Arctic Legion is the only legion of the Holy Land Group that does not have any human members, which is why its methods are consistently inhumane, brutal, and notorious for having a very bad reputation even among monsters
It is important to understand that almost all monsters possess special means for self-preservation and escape. Given the significant disparity in strength, eliminating an opponent's primordial spirit is not an easy task. Yue Peng can easily handle five opponents at once, leading those weaker monsters to believe that they can always escape from their enemies and that they will find opportunities for revenge in the future. This mindset is greatly diminished.
Having lost his usefulness, Jiafuli no longer showed any interest in Wang Yulong. Although this young man had decent skills, he was clearly at a significant disadvantage compared to someone of Yue Peng's caliber. Zhang Yu could only take action himself, as he was unable to offer any assistance.
Thus, Yue Peng established the Chaos Void Realm, and both sides engaged in battle. At the beginning, Yue Peng had a slight advantage. However, he signaled to cease hostilities. Yet, one of the attendants was unwilling to comply, insisting on a relentless pursuit, and resorted to despicable tactics to scheme against him
With a sword in hand, one can swiftly settle grievances and express gratitude
The five deacons who came later, although they are also members of the Six Extremes Heavenly Path, do not belong to the same system as the Earth Sovereign. They are affiliated with another elder's faction. Usually, there is some friction with the Earth Sovereign's faction, so they do not take the Earth Sovereign's instructions to heart
The night watch extended until midnight, lingering with reluctance. Searching everywhere, Wang Yulong's enemy was not a member of humanity, but a pure-blood demon from the *Book of Maps*. The race remains unidentified. Wang Yulong's mentor, the priest Kalis, had a grudge against this pure-blood demon, who had inexplicably fallen from the demon realm to the human world, and was brutally killed by him.
Concentrating his entire breath, Wang Yulong entered the battlefield, and the fiery fighting spirit erupted suddenly, launching a fierce surprise attack on the two nearest members of the Arctic Legion
Cities in northern China experience extremely cold temperatures during winter. The relatively arid climate poses significant harm to human skin. Wang Yulong's close girlfriend could not tolerate this and insisted on leaving.
Although Wang Yulong could tell that the four monsters had not yet revealed their true strength, it was still enough to astonish him
After crossing an iron flower fence, Wang Yulong quickly located the site of the demon power barrier. This type of barrier can confuse the mind, rendering it invisible to the observer. Therefore, it can be utilized by those with a certain level of cultivation. When demons engage in activities they prefer humans not to know about, they often like to set up such demon power barriers.
The flames erupted from his body, and the fiery aura surged to its peak in an instant. The blazing flames manifested, and Wang Yulong had no intention of holding back his strength.
Looking up at the sky, Wang Yulong felt somewhat drowsy
This escape will inevitably lead to retaliation from the Arctic Legion or the Holy Land Group in the future
Any member of the Arctic Legion possesses a certain level of strength. This certain level is defined by the two fundamental standards prevalent in the world of monsters.
Unlike Wang Yulong's purely cameo nature, every day he wanders around with his girlfriend. Jiafuli's work attitude is very serious. Although she cannot take real action, the intelligence gathering is conducted meticulously. She obtains a large amount of first-hand information and analyzes and organizes it comprehensively
A round of sophistry
There is no need to consider it at all; Wang Yulong is very certain about what he should do
The four monsters, upon seeing them, Wang Yulong immediately recognized them as members of the Arctic Legion he had been searching for in vain. There were many identifiable characteristics, such as their attire, the techniques they employed, and traits that matched his own records. However, the two opposing humans surprised Wang Yulong even more. The female was not particularly remarkable, her power being less than half that of Jafri, which was not unexpected. The male, on the other hand, was astonishingly capable of contending with the four monsters from the Arctic Legion, his strength being extraordinary among humans.
Although he is lazy, it does not mean that Wang Yulong lacks the necessary perseverance. This matter, much like his haphazard life, is something he cannot let go of
Recently, Yue Peng has eliminated five high-ranking attendants of the Six Extremes Heavenly Path, and this news has spread like wildfire throughout the city. All the monsters that have entered this city in Northeast China are now facing a crisis. Many monsters that originally planned to live here or pass through have changed their routes. Even the native monsters are migrating to avoid disaster.
After silently infiltrating the demon power barrier, Wang Yulong discovered this simple barrier. It covered a considerable area, and although it was evident that it had been hastily constructed, the skill involved in creating this demon power barrier was truly remarkable, indicating the work of a master.
Although Wang Yulong's timing, angle, and strategy are beyond reproach, the target of this attack was not so cooperative
Luxury speaks for itself; those who reside here, without exception, possess top-notch earning capabilities
Recently, Wang Yulong has been unusually diligent
"It seems there is no hope again, let's just go back!" Wang Yulong muttered to himself
It was simply unexpected that so many diverse forces would become intertwined here, and the situation has become extremely severe. The original plan is no longer applicable, and all actions have consequently been delayed
Thus, he is now wandering the streets alone, idly passing the days with nothing to do
However, for Wang Yulong, who has cultivated sacred power for many years, this is certainly not difficult for him
This behavior shattered Yue Peng's limit of tolerance. Moreover, Yue Peng was originally a notorious violent celestial bird from ancient times, who took pleasure in slaughtering living beings, with a fierce and terrifying presence. He was never a benevolent figure. "Once a monster possesses human traits, it is no longer a monster, but a human monster." Such a ridiculous type of demon was not something Yue Peng enjoyed embodying.
