The blade's radiance stretched for thousands of feet, its power terrifying enough to split the heavens in two.
Accompanying the blade's light was a cold, thunderous shout that echoed like a demon god.
"Today, the scum of the three major sects shall be exterminated!"
As the words fell, the thousand-foot blade light descended from the sky.
With this strike, nearly one-third of the cultivators from the three major sects were obliterated!
Blood splattered, severed limbs flew!
Wails and cries of agony filled the air!
This sudden strike left everyone stunned, frozen in place like wooden puppets.
Elder Huangquan and the others felt their scalps tingle, their hair standing on end.
Though he was also a sage, he was merely at the early stage of sagehood.
That blade light instilled in Elder Huangquan a sense of impending death.
"Who is it?!"
At this moment, all eyes turned toward the source.
A middle-aged man clad in black battle armor, exuding an icy demeanor like a demon god, stepped through the air.
He wielded a blood-red battle knife, his gaze sharp as an eagle's, sweeping over Elder Huangquan and the others.
"Sage!"
Many cultivators gasped in astonishment.
Even in the Immortal Domain, sages were not commonly seen, let alone in the lower realms.
Who was this suddenly appearing sage, and why was he aiding the War Demon Hall?
As the crowd pondered in confusion, the remaining cultivators of the War Demon Hall widened their eyes in shock.
The man who appeared bore an uncanny resemblance to their revered hall master!
Throughout the generations, the hall masters of the War Demon Hall had statues erected within the hall, which is why they recognized him so quickly.
The hall master of the War Demon Hall, his eyes trembling, spoke in disbelief, "Is it... the seventh hall master?"
At this declaration, silence fell over the surroundings.
The seventh hall master of the War Demon Hall was a notorious figure on the Senluo Continent.
In his era, it was the most glorious time for the War Demon Hall.
However, the seventh hall master had vanished without a trace, with some claiming he had ascended to the Immortal Domain.
Now, could this suddenly appearing man truly be the seventh hall master?
"This... how is this possible?" Elder Huangquan and the others were taken aback, their hearts churning with turmoil.
In the era of Gu Yuan, they were merely a group of small fry.
"I never expected that those three small sects from back then could do something like this now." Gu Yuan's gaze was cold and indifferent.
Upon hearing this, Elder Huangquan's heart sank completely.
There was no doubt that this suddenly appearing sage was indeed the seventh hall master of the War Demon Hall.
Yet the people of the three major sects could not fathom how the seventh hall master could coincidentally appear now.
"Hiss... it's that ruthless person, he has descended from the Immortal Domain?" Some other onlookers from the Senluo Continent gasped.
The name of the seventh hall master, Gu Yuan, was well-known across the Senluo Continent.
Those prodigies from the Immortal Domain had not heard of Gu Yuan, and their eyes held a hint of pity.
"What use is it for this seventh hall master to come? Does he dare to intervene?"
"Exactly, even if he is a sage, offending the Fallen Son will lead to nothing good."
These prodigies from the Immortal Domain did not hold high hopes for Gu Yuan.
Strength and realm were only part of the equation.
Identity and background were equally important.
Though Gu Yuan was a sage, he was still a sage from the lower realm; did he dare provoke the Fallen Son?
As the hall master of the War Demon Hall and others thought of this, their expressions of joy and excitement diminished significantly.
Elder Huangquan also came to the same realization.
The panic and surprise on their faces faded, replaced by calm and indifference.
Elder Huangquan said slowly, "Seventh hall master, I did not expect you to appear, but do you know whose orders we are following to exterminate the War Demon Hall?"
Gu Yuan's eyes flashed with cold light as he replied, "It doesn't matter whose orders you follow; today, not only your three major sects but even the people behind you must die!"
"Bold! You dare to disrespect the Fallen Son!" Elder Huangquan shouted angrily.
At that moment, a calm and indifferent voice rang out.
"What is the Fallen Son worth?"
As the voice echoed, a lion's roar shook the air, and nine-headed lions pulled a carriage into view.
Elder Dongxuan, Yi Yu, and others followed closely behind.
"Another sage powerhouse?" The cultivators from the Senluo Continent displayed shock once more.
However, the gazes of the prodigies from the Immortal Domain were fixed on the nine-headed lions pulling the carriage.
"Using nine-headed lions to pull a carriage, could it be that..." Some prodigies from the Immortal Domain exchanged glances, each seeing the shock in the other's eyes.
If the Fallen Son was someone they feared and were wary of, then this individual was someone they could only look up to, a being from an entirely different realm.
"Hmm? Who are you?" Elder Huangquan raised an eyebrow.
The sage aura emanating from Elder Dongxuan made Elder Huangquan's heart tremble slightly.
This sage appeared to be acting like a subordinate.
Seeing Jun Xiaoyao arrive, Gu Yuan also cupped his hands from a distance and said, "Young master has arrived."
"What!"
At Gu Yuan's action, the cultivators from the Senluo Continent were left speechless.
On the Senluo Continent, the legendary seventh hall master Gu Yuan, known for his formidable reputation, had actually become someone else's servant?
The cultivators of the War Demon Hall were completely bewildered.
This was completely contrary to their expectations of the seventh hall master being high and mighty.
Yan Qingying raised her delicate, snow-white face.
Though she was blind, she still turned toward Jun Xiaoyao's direction.
Who could be called "young master" by a powerhouse like the seventh hall master?
Could he possibly compare to the Fallen Son?
Seeing this scene, the prodigies from the Immortal Domain suddenly felt a chill run down their spines.
They quickly realized who was seated in that carriage.
One by one, the prodigies from the Immortal Domain stepped forward, cupping their hands and saying, "We greet the young master!"
This scene truly shocked the cultivators of the Senluo Continent.
They had never seen these arrogant prodigies from the Immortal Domain display such reverence and admiration.
Now, even Elder Huangquan felt a jolt in his heart.
It was obvious that the person in the carriage was not only a prodigy from the Immortal Domain but also seemed to hold an extremely noble status.
Previously, these prodigies from the Immortal Domain had only shown a hint of caution upon hearing the name of the Fallen Son.
But now, they actively approached to pay their respects.
The difference was immense.
"Is it really necessary to go through all this trouble? Just kill them; using the Fallen Son as a shield is laughable!"
From within the carriage, Jun Xiaoyao's voice carried a hint of disdain.
"Yes!"
With Jun Xiaoyao backing him, Gu Yuan felt completely at ease.
He swung his blade directly at Elder Huangquan.
"No... you can't do this! The Fallen Son will not spare you!" Elder Huangquan desperately resisted, screaming in terror.
However, his words only drew cold mockery from the prodigies of the Immortal Domain.
"How foolish! The Fallen Son means nothing in front of the Jun family's young master!"
"Exactly, when it comes to status, does the Jun family's young master fear anyone?"
These prodigies from the Immortal Domain looked at the coalition of the three major sects with scorn and pity.
The three major sects were utterly finished.
And the Fallen Son had truly run into a brick wall.
