Summon the Shadow Legion at the start and create the Underworld Palace!

"Hiss~!"

"As expected of the Supreme Sword Master, Shen Baochen!"

"With just one sword strike, he forced back She Xiaotian, who was also a Saint King!"

"No wonder he's hailed as one of the strongest sword cultivators in the Eastern Wilderness!"

at this time.

The powerful figures from all sides who witnessed this battle from the hidden void couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

Such a big commotion naturally attracted a lot of attention.

But instead of showing themselves, they chose to watch from the shadows.

Especially after witnessing Shen Baochen severely injure She Xiaotian with a single sword strike, everyone was utterly shocked.

Both of them were at the Saint King level.

There are probably very few people in the entire Eastern Wilderness who can achieve this level of skill.

Just as everyone was marveling at this, Shen Baochen, who was in the distance, suddenly turned around and glanced in their direction.

Then.

He then carried the broken sword and slowly walked away.

That seemingly ordinary figure sent chills down the spines of those hiding in the shadows.

"He...he could he have found us?" Someone couldn't help but swallow hard.

"It's hard to say!"

"But there's a very high probability that it has been discovered!"

"Do you think... Shen Baochen might have already broken through to the Great Sage realm?"

"Even if we don't break through, it's not far off!"

In the crowd, an elderly man with a full head of silver hair muttered to himself.

Upon hearing this...

Silence fell again.

Shen Baochen is too strong!

Even though they were both Saint Kings, and the Snake Howling Sky was as strong as him, he couldn't even withstand a single sword strike from him!

"Is this... the splendor of the number one genius of the human race back then?" A complex look flickered in someone's eyes.

Throughout the countless years of human history, many extraordinary talents have emerged.

But if we're talking about the last ten thousand years, there's probably no one else who can compare to Shen Baochen!

It is truly astonishing that he has risen to the ranks of the strongest in the Eastern Wilderness in less than five thousand years of cultivation.

It should be known that the lifespan of a Saint King can reach as long as 30,000 years!

in other words!

As long as Shen Baochen does not perish prematurely, the human race will surely produce another supreme saint in the future.

Even... the Emperor!

Upon thinking of this, many people's expressions became incredibly complex as they looked at Shen Baochen's departing figure.

Those present included not only humans, but also powerful individuals from other races.

They had personally experienced Shen Baochen's power and were filled with dread.

At the same time, they made up their minds that they must pass this message on to the Hui people as soon as possible!

After all, no one wants to see a peerless genius emerge from the human race who may one day become an emperor!

Thinking about this...

Without further hesitation, they vanished silently into the void.

……

at the same time!

Despite his injuries, She Xiaotian appeared in the council hall of the Tengshe clan.

There are also many high-ranking members of the Tengshe clan here.

Judging from their expressions, they seemed to be discussing something important.

"Pfft!"

As soon as She Xiaotian appeared, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and his face instantly turned deathly pale.

Upon seeing this, everyone was startled and stood up.

"Chieftain!"

Are you alright?

"Who on earth could have injured you so badly?!"

Their expressions were grave, and they hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

Snake Roaring Sky waved his hand.

"It's alright!"

"The Dao of Cause and Effect, it truly lives up to its name!" He took a deep breath, barely managing to stabilize the churning blood and qi within his body.

"The Way of Causality in Swordsmanship?"

"Shen Baochen!"

"Clan leader, could the person who injured you be Shen Baochen from the Sword Tomb Holy Land?"

Upon hearing this, everyone's pupils contracted instantly.

The name Shen Baochen is renowned throughout the Eastern Wilderness.

Everyone present knew this!

Snake Howling Sky nodded heavily, then took a deep breath and said.

"I originally intended to track down the murderer who killed Ming'er, but I didn't expect to run into Shen Baochen along the way."

"Then, a conflict occurred between us."

"After a brief exchange, I was no match for him..." She Xiaotian paused, a strong sense of apprehension flashing in his eyes.

Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed drastically.

"Even the clan leader is no match for him?" Someone's pupils contracted slightly, and his whole body trembled violently.

"Patriarch, who exactly murdered the Holy Son?"

Could it be...?

"Is the other party related to the Sword Tomb Holy Land?" another person guessed.

"No!"

"Shen Baochen only intervened to stop me from entering Yunxiao Prefecture because of Ming'er's devouring of humans."

"The one who truly killed Ming'er was the King of Hell!"

After She Xiaotian finished speaking, his gaze became even colder.

Upon hearing this, the high-ranking members of the Tengshe clan frowned.

The Hall of Yama?

I feel like I've heard this name somewhere before, but I can't quite place it right now.

Not long after.

An old man suddenly realized something and blurted out, "Wait!"

"Chieftain, you're not talking about the Yama Palace that wiped out the Blood Bat Clan in Tianfang Prefecture a while ago, are you?"

Upon hearing this, the other high-ranking members of the Tengshe clan quickly realized what was happening.

They seemed to have heard of this force before, but hadn't paid much attention to it.

After all, it was just a newly emerging second-rate power.

Even if the other party wiped out the Blood Bat Clan, they were nothing compared to the Teng Snake Clan!

"good."

"It's almost certainly the Hall of Yama, the King of Hell!"

Snake Howling Sky nodded, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes.

"But Chieftain..."

"As far as I know, although the Yama Palace was able to wipe out the Blood Bat Clan, it seems that there has never been any information about a sage or powerful figure presiding over them."

"How could they possibly be a match for the five demigods?" someone frowned, raising their doubts.

Everyone present knew that the clan leader had sent five half-saints to protect Sheming.

Among them was even a peak half-saint!

With such strength, even a sage or powerful expert might not be able to kill Sheming.

Unless... more than one sage intervenes.

Even so.

In order to assassinate a King of the Sixth Heaven, would the Yama Palace choose to dispatch several Sage Realm experts?

When did Sage Realm experts become so idle?

Snake Howling Heaven glanced at them, but did not offer any explanation. Instead, he raised his hand and touched his brow.

"Buzzing~!"

next second.

A phantom of light and shadow appeared, recreating the scene of Sheming's murder before everyone's eyes.

"This is the image that was transmitted back to Ming'er by the wisp of her soul."

"This...this..."

After reading it, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

For a moment, I didn't know what to say.

"I know……"

"The things Ming'er has done over the years have made you all feel that something is wrong."

"But no matter what, he is my only son!" She Xiaotian said in a deep voice.

Everyone remained silent.

Yes!

She Ming is She Xiaotian's only son!

It is common knowledge that the stronger a cultivator's cultivation level, the lower the chance of having offspring.

She Xiaotian not only possesses the bloodline of the Primordial Teng Snake, but is also a Saint King powerhouse.

Therefore, over the past tens of thousands of years, he has only had one offspring, Sheming.

His doting on She Ming fostered her arrogant and disdainful personality.

"Chieftain..."

Someone was about to speak when She Xiaotian raised his hand to interrupt them.

"I have only one request now, and that is to avenge my son in the name of the Tengshe clan!!"

"Haven't you always felt that Ming'er monopolized the position of Holy Son of the Tengshe Clan and wanted to establish a few more Holy Sons?"

"good!"

"As long as it avenges my son, I am willing to reopen the Tengshe Ancestral Land, giving your descendants the opportunity to receive the baptism of ancestral blood!"

"Or even... re-electing the Holy Son of the Tengshe Clan!"

Snake Howling Sky's gaze swept over everyone present, a hint of madness in his eyes.
