Chapter 1967: Bad Intentions from the Visitors

Yang Jian retracted his divine consciousness. His mind was as clear as a mirror. Just as he expected, the cultivators of the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family had arrived. They were already in Wangdu.

Moreover, they did not seem at all interested in what was happening at the palace. They were quietly drinking their liquor at the tavern as if they did not care about the happenings in the Heavenly Battle Palace at all. Perhaps, the cultivators of the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family really did not care much about the actions of the cultivators here.

Perhaps, for the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family, the only thing they really cared about was the Wangshen Watchtower.

Who knew why the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family actually came here?

After withdrawing his divine consciousness, Yang Jian stopped thinking about the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family. It was not something he could worry about at that moment. They were not at the same level; he was not yet qualified to intervene in their affairs. At the current moment, what he needed to deal with were the cultivators from the north.

These cultivators from the north most likely came following the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family. As for why they went to the Heavenly Battle Palace, no one knew if they did it by themselves or under orders of the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family.

After Yang Jian arrived, the other cultivators from the Heavenly Battle Palace became extremely quiet. No one spoke. After all, Yang Jian was the palace lord of the Heavenly Battle Palace. He was an elder. Since he had arrived, it was natural that he would take the lead.

An oppressive and intense aura accompanied the solemn and silent space. The situation was tense. It was as if a huge battle could break out at any moment.

Yang Jian looked at the cultivators in the sky and said, “Since you also have this intention, please. My Heavenly Battle Palace happens to be the location of the law battle. The guest room of our Heavenly Battle Palace is this law battle platform. Since you have come from the far north, my Heavenly Battle Palace will help receive and welcome you on this law battle platform.”

One might mistake Yang Jian’s words as one uttered to a dear friend who had come to visit if one did not know the context.

Naturally, what he meant by receiving and welcoming them at Heavenly Battle Palace’s law battle platform meant that they would receive them in the form of a battle.

In the sky, the vast and powerful might continued to occupy the sky. Among the cultivators from the north, the elder who spoke earlier was rather respected. He said to the cultivators around him, “Since the Heavenly Battle Palace has issued such a sincere invitation, if any one of you wish to reciprocate their kindness, just head down there.”

Just as Yang Jian and many others had expected, the cultivators from the north were powerful. They were indeed not from the same faction. Instead, they were from multiple different factions that followed the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family over here, to Wangdu.

The reason they came here was that the Heavenly Battle Palace was the place of law battles. Here, they could clearly see the strength and capabilities of the practitioners in Wangdu. While it was not enough for them to gauge individual practitioners’ abilities, it was enough for them to peek at the general strength.

High up in the sky, a figure strode forward. His body leaned forward as he landed on top of the Heavenly Battle Palace.

The person’s body was muscular and sturdy-looking, his eyes were like copper bells, and his black hair draped over his shoulders. His body was cloaked in a golden robe, and he gave off a sense of domineering wildness as an intense and powerful aura emanated from his body. His cultivation level was Renhuang fifth plane, and his powerful aura was very oppressive.

The practitioners from the north instantly relaxed after they saw the Renhuang step forward. That person was a powerful cultivator from a royal family that conquered a continent in the northern lands. When that royal family conquered the continent, they stepped over numerous corpses, and they were famous across various continents for a time. The royal family’s influence also spanned across various continents. Even in the main continent of the north—the Yanyun Continent—the royal family was very well known. This person was a core cultivator from that royal family. He excelled in battles, and his battle strength could be described as frightening. If the Heavenly Battle Palace did not send out a powerful person, they would be crushed.

“Which one of you is willing to go and welcome our guest from afar?” the Heavenly Battle Palace Palace Lord Yang Jian asked.

Just as he finished speaking, a Renhuang of the same plane stepped forward. With a step, he leaped into the air and landed on the law battle platform. He raised his head to look at the figure in the sky and said, “Appreciate your guidance.”

Neither one of them gave their names as if that was not important. It did not matter what the objectives of the visitors from the north were, they certainly did not have good intentions, so they did not need to be too polite or formal. Moreover, the way these visitors arrived could also be said to be incredibly cocky.

The Renhuang who stepped forward was a practitioner of the Heavenly Battle Palace. For these visitors to arrive at the Heavenly Battle Palace in such a cocky manner, he naturally knew that there was no need to be polite with them.

Then, bright lights appeared, and the Renhuang law battle platform floated into the air. Lights from the law matrix shot through the clouds in the sky and the Renhuang law battle platform formed a space of its own.

Ye Futian looked at the matrix of the law battle platform. The self-formed space segregated the space, and happenings on the inside would not affect the outside. However, the inside was large and spacious enough. It was quite fascinating. It seemed like it was something that the Heavenly Battle Palace specifically prepared for law battles of the Renhuang level.

Bang… Then, a loud bang sounded. The law battle platform emitted an intense spacial wave. The cultivators could clearly hear the crisp sound, and the Renhuang from the royal family in the north stepped across the sky, and countless beams of lights descended straight from the sky.

The cultivator from the Heavenly Battle Palace extended a fist. Then, the crowd could vaguely see a gigantic golden foot come from above, clashing with the opponent’s fist. As the two clashed, a frightening light burst forth.

A cacophony of intense battle noise resounded in the air. The cultivator from the north moved down from the sky step by step. Each of his steps created a frightening giant footprint that was accompanied by a potent and oppressive Power of the Great Path as if he was going to crush the sky at any moment. The law power attack had a resemblance to the Divine Elephant Stomping the Sky skill.

The crowd looked toward and inside the law battle platform. Every step would turn into a giant footprint. The giant golden footprints would block the sky and fill the sky; they were overwhelmingly powerful.

The Renhuang of the Heavenly Battle Palace released continuous attacks to block them. A Divine Wheel of the Great Path appeared above his body. It was a golden eagle that blocked the sky and the sun when it spread its wings. It tore through space and cut open a route as it charged straight toward its enemy.

The Renhuang cultivator from the north glanced at the divine eagle beneath him, and a mighty large footprint descended from above. At that moment, it was as if a golden armor had donned on him, and bright and wondrous divine lights surrounded his entire body while his eyes were filled with pride and condescension.

The eyes of the Renhuang from the Heavenly Battle Palace were sharp. Fearsome tornadoes appeared all around him. With its wings extended. The divine eagle shot upward. Golden divine light that tore through space appeared above the law battle platform. It was inevitable. It seemed as if they were going to crush and destroy everything within its path.

However, the Renhuang from the north seemed very calm. He looked at everything with composure. Just how strong were those from the royal family of the north? Many of them had experienced that first hand. It was far above this level, that was for sure.

Vuong… Incredibly bright divine light devoured the sky. The Renhuang from the north had disappeared. Then, a towering war god illusion appeared in the sky. The face of the Renhuang from the north also appeared. From high up above, a humongous rock pillar emerged. As if a pillar of divine light that pierced through the Great Path, it came crashing down.

It was not a rock pillar. It was a leg. However, it moved as fast as lightning, to the point where a divine light that pierced the sky appeared in the air, stomping downward.

The Great Path was directly crushed into pieces. The sharp divine eagle fought against the tide to charge upward but was crushed under the pillar of light. Divine light burst forth when it was annihilated. It was blinding.

Boom… The bright light directly crushed the Great Path and pierced through the sky, striking the body of the Heavenly Battle Palace Renhuang. With a loud bang, the mighty divine wheel of the Great Path of the Heavenly Battle Palace Renhuang cracked. The body of the divine eagle was about to be crushed. He grunted as a ray of light pierced through his body. Then, his body fell, and he knelt on the ground. His Great Path was damaged, and he was severely injured.

Everyone in the vast land of the Heavenly Battle Palace witnessed this scene. The place was unbelievably quiet.

So ruthless.

A powerful Renhuang was completely crushed and severely injured. This hit was incredibly damaging to the Heavenly Battle Palace’s Renhuang.

However, it also showed them the strength of their opponents. This practitioner from the north had overwhelmingly defeated and severely injured the Renhuang of the Heavenly Battle Palace.

The law battle platform’s matrix moved. Someone went up to the platform to bring the Heavenly Battle Palace’s Renhuang down. The Heavenly Battle Palace Palace Lord Yang Jian’s expression became cold after witnessing the scene before him. He raised his head and said to the Renhuang floating in the sky above the law battle platform coldly, “You have come so far from the north. Is there a need to be so ruthless and cruel?”

The Renhuang did not pay much attention to Yang Jian’s words. He replied, “I heard the law battle platform of the Heavenly Battle Palace was a cruel place. Injuries and even deaths are not uncommon. It is supposed to be a real law battle. Why is it that when it is from me, it is ruthless and cruel? Could it be that the rumors I heard were wrong?”

The Renhuang from the north stood in the sky above and looked down calmly as if he was not surprised by this reaction.

Ye Futian raised his head to glance at the Renhuang in the sky. He was confused. The cultivators of the north arriving in Wangdu meant that they were very powerful outsiders. Why did they have to be so ruthless and cruel?

Were they trying to bring up the conflict between the north and the Donghua Domain?

What was the reason behind their pressuring? Were they aiming for the Wangshen Watchtower?

“It looks like the visitors are not simply unkind. The northerners follow orders of the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family. For these cultivators to be so rude and cocky, someone must be supporting them from behind. It can only be the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family. This means that the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family might have already agreed to it. In that case, their objective for coming here will not be simple,” said Lin Qiu to Ye Futian gently.

Ye Futian nodded. To be so ruthless, it was natural that they were not here to spar. Instead, they were here as a show of force. In terms of who they were showing it to, that was something for one to ponder. Or perhaps, they were showing it to the entire Wangdu.

The Heavenly Battle Palace had gathered many powerful cultivators of Wangdu, and even many from the Dongxiao Continent, on this day. For them to do this, the one backing them was definitely not simple.

This battle had triggered the emotions of many. They were miserable. At that moment, no matter what internal conflicts existed, it did not matter. The arrogant behaviors of these northern visitors were simply contempt.
