2526 Gathering of Fiends

“The Sect Master of Tianhuang Sect, Desolate Martial, is here too!”

“Hurry, let’s keep our distance from him lest we offend him.”

Although many fiend cultivators had never seen the Martial Dao Prime Body before, they quickly recalled the rumors about Desolate Martial when they saw his purple robes and silver mask.

“Tianhuang Sect resides in a remote corner and Desolate Martial is merely a Perfected Fiend. Why should we fear him? The entire Fiend Domain has been alarmed by the appearance of this Fiend Cave and countless sects, factions and supreme experts have arrived. Desolate Martial is nothing much.”

“What do you know?”

Another person said with lingering fear, “In that battle back then, Desolate Martial killed Yan Zui and the others and a million-strong fiend army. In the eyes of many people, he has already replaced Yan Zui and is now the new Supreme Perfected Fiend!”

“Hehe!”

A long-faced fiend cultivator at the side gave a strange laugh. “Not necessarily. I heard that the prince of Firmament Ascension Palace looks down on him. Now that the Fiend Cave has appeared, the prince, Ling Xian, has appeared as well!”

“If the two of them meet, there will definitely be a fight.”

“That’s for sure. The prince’s title alone is something that nobody else will dare to use. It literally means that he will surpass and execute all other immortals. How domineering and arrogant is that?!”

Another Heaven Immortal pouted his lips slightly. “That’s true. Don’t forget, Prince Ling Xian is backed by a Fiend Emperor as well. Unless Desolate Martial has a death wish, he’ll definitely want to avoid Prince Ling Xian.”

A large number of cultivators were gathered in the vicinity of Bei Yin Mountain. They covered the mountains and plains densely.

The appearance of the Fiend Cave had alarmed countless fiend cultivators who wanted to search for opportunities and encounters!

After the Martial Dao Prime Body arrived, he surveyed his surroundings.

At the foot of Bei Yin Mountain, there was a gigantic cave that was pitch-black with sinister winds gusting. It was like the gaping mouth of an ancient ferocious beast that could not be penetrated with eyesight nor spirit consciousness.

This was the Fiend Cave that the fiends were referring to!

At the front of the Fiend Cave, a few major factions occupied a place with fluttering flags and experts under their lead—no other cultivator dared to approach!

There were hundreds of thousands of fiend cultivators gathered there.

Apart from a group of Heaven Immortals, there were also hundreds of Perfected Fiends in front of the hundreds of thousands of cultivators. Their leader was not old, but his gaze was sharp as an eagle and his aura was terrifying!

Hundreds of thousands of fiend cultivators surrounded that person like stars surrounding the moon.

From his bearing, he should be the disciple of Firmament Ascension Palace, Ling Xian!

The appearance of this Fiend Cave and the fact that Firmament Ascension Palace sent out such a huge force was proof of how strong their foundation was.

Behind Firmament Ascension Palace were a few other major factions.

Black Fiend Sect, Yellow Springs Villa, Godfiend Ridge and Wind Fiend Sect that had met the Martial Dao Prime Body before were among them.

Apart from the four heaven-grade factions, there was also Ghost King Palace, Heavenly Evil Sect and Soul Devouring Palace—these three factions were ranked alongside the former!

Although the cultivators brought by those factions were slightly less than Firmament Ascension Palace, there were still more than a hundred thousand of them respectively!

After the Martial Dao Prime Body arrived, many cultivators avoided him and a blank space appeared around him.

Although the Martial Dao Prime Body was alone, he was ranked alongside the heaven-grade factions and was not disadvantaged in terms of aura!

The Perfected Fiends of Black Fiend Sect, Yellow Springs Villa, Godfiend Ridge and Wind Fiend Sect revealed wary expressions when they saw the Martial Dao Prime Body.

The young master of Heavenly Evil Sect rolled his eyes and suddenly declared, “This is Fellow Daoist Desolate Martial, the Supreme Perfected Fiend who has shaken the Fiend Domain and threatened the Nine Firmaments in recent years, right?”

The Martial Dao Prime Body did not move at all and remained silent without even looking at the person.

“Mmm?”

That statement attracted the attention of Ling Xian!

Initially, Ling Xian was standing at the front and did not notice the Martial Dao Prime Body. When he heard that, he turned around slowly and glared at the Martial Dao Prime Body with an unfriendly expression through the crowd.

“Desolate Martial is here too!”

Ling Xian nodded slowly with a cold glint in his eyes. “Good timing, good timing!”

Over the years, Desolate Martial’s reputation in the Fiend Domain had already surpassed his.

In fact, there were many rumors that said that Desolate Martial was the de facto Supreme Perfected Fiend—that was even more unacceptable for Ling Xian!

The fight for the Perfected Fiend Ranking was hosted by Firmament Ascension Palace.

Although Yan Zui was dead, the fight for the new Perfected Fiend Ranking had yet to begin—what rights did this person have to be assumed as the top of the Perfected Fiend Ranking with the title of supreme attached to him?!

In a flash, Ling Xian was prepared to cause trouble for the Martial Dao Prime Body.

However, the Perfected Fiends behind him exchanged glances and advanced one after another to stop Ling Xian.

“Prince, please calm down. There’s nothing to fear about Desolate Martial. There’s no need to use a sledgehammer to crack a nut.”

“That’s right. Lord Ling Xiao instructed us to prioritize the Fiend Cave and not create unnecessary trouble.”

“That’s right. Once we obtain the treasure in the Fiend Cave, Desolate Martial will be like fish on a chopping board waiting to be slaughtered by us!”

In reality, the Perfected Fiends were still wary of the Martial Dao Prime Body. However, they could not express weakness verbally.

Ling Xian nodded slightly and retracted his killing intent.

Pausing for a moment, he seemed to have suddenly thought of something. Gritting his teeth, he asked hatefully, “Are you guys sure that the sl*t fled within?”

“Someone witnessed it personally!”

A Perfected Fiend said firmly, “However, that sl*t is only a Grade 5 Heaven Immortal. She definitely won’t be able to withstand the sinister winds of the Fiend Cave. She must have died inside a long time ago and her Essence Spirit was destroyed without a corpse left!”

When he heard that, Ling Xian’s eyes flashed with a hint of sadness.

From his tone earlier on, he clearly hated this sl*t to the core.

However, at that moment, his heart ached when he heard that the sl*t was dead.

“Not necessarily.”

Another Perfected Fiend consoled, “Your Highness, don’t forget that that woman has an Apocalyptic Fiend Diagram in her hands as well. This Fiend Cave created this diagram and with this diagram on her, she might be able to neutralize the sinister winds within.”

Sinister winds gusted at the entrance of the Fiend Cave.

Many factions did not act rashly, waiting for the sinister winds to weaken or even dissipate.

Otherwise, even the Perfected Fiends present could not withstand such strong sinister winds!

“Strange, why don’t I see any Fiend King experts?”

“Logically speaking, the first time a Fiend Cave as such appears, there should be countless opportunities and treasures inside. Even Fiend Kings should be tempted.”

There were at least millions of cultivators in the vicinity of Bei Yin Mountain and that number was still increasing rapidly.

However, there were indeed no Fiend King experts among the many fiend cultivators.

A fiend cultivator said in a deep voice, “Although the strongest cultivators in the vicinity are only Perfected Fiends, there are definitely many Fiend King experts watching in secret. It’s just that they haven’t appeared yet.”

“That’s right. This is the first time that the Fiend Cave has appeared. Although no one has touched the opportunities and treasures inside, there are countless potential dangers!”

“These Fiend Kings are smart and want us to test the waters. If a shocking treasure truly appears, they’ll definitely appear and fight for it!”

Just as everyone was discussing, the Martial Dao Prime Body suddenly moved and strode towards the entrance of the Fiend Cave!
