77: Go and ask the ancestor to come out of seclusion

“Damn it, how dare you provoke the might of my Shenhuo Sect? Die!”

Just then, a loud roar suddenly came from behind Lu Fengming.

Along with the voice came two extremely powerful attacks.

Two strong cultivators from the Shenhuo Sect charged from behind Lu Fengming, unleashing an incredibly terrifying energy fluctuation.

This powerful force, like an overwhelming tide, poured out its energy, rapidly striking towards Lu Fengming.

The terrifying force pierced through the void, deafening, causing a painful bursting sensation in one's ears.

Boom!

Amidst the explosions, Lu Fengming remained calm and unperturbed.

Instead, he quickly turned around and extended his hands, grabbing towards the source of the explosions.

The attackers were two Divine Fire Sect Elders at the Nascent Soul Realm.

Seeing Lu Fengming so wantonly slaughtering Shenhuo Sect disciples, they finally could no longer tolerate it.

In their rage, they unleashed a killing blow.

However, facing the two Elders’ ultimate strike, Lu Fengming not only did not use any spells or divine abilities to block, but instead tried to forcefully resist them with the power of his physical body.

As Lu Fengming made his move, his powerful physical divine ability forcibly resisted the two Divine Fire Sect Elders at the Nascent Soul Realm, then he advanced triumphantly, his strength undiminished, quickly seizing the throats of the two Divine Fire Sect Elders.

With a crack and a squeeze, he forcefully crushed their throats.

As that immense power was exerted, the heads of the two instantly exploded.

“Ding! Host has slain a Shenhuo Sect disciple. Host has gained 200,000 villain points.”

“Ding! Host has slain a Divine Fire Sect Elder. Host has gained 300,000 villain points.”

Just as Lu Fengming killed these two, a system prompt also sounded in his mind.

A sound of nature.

This sound was simply a sound of nature.

It made one intoxicated and unable to extricate oneself.

Lu Fengming couldn't help but lick his lips.

The bloodstain from one of the Divine Fire Sect Elders had just touched the corner of his mouth, which Lu Fengming easily licked away, carrying a hint of bloodthirsty gore.

“Eighth Elder!”

“Ninth Elder!”

Many disciples of the Shenhuo Sect couldn't help but let out cries of sorrow, a series of hysterical shouts.

Watching with their own eyes as two great Elders of the Shenhuo Sect had their heads crushed by Lu Fengming, dying without a burial place, many strong cultivators also felt a sense of shared sorrow, like a rabbit mourning a fox.

They were well aware of the strength of the two great Elders just now.

These two Elders were top cultivators ranked in the top 10 within the entire Shenhuo Sect, all possessing the Nascent Soul Realm.

They never expected that when facing Lu Fengming, he could easily defeat the two Elders with only his physical divine ability, without using any spells or divine abilities.

The two Elders couldn't even withstand a single move from Lu Fengming before dying at the hands of this demon, Lu Fengming.

Thinking of this, everyone's gaze towards Lu Fengming was once again filled with intense apprehension and fear.

These two were top cultivators at the Nascent Soul Realm, yet when facing Lu Fengming, he killed these two Elders as easily as slaughtering chickens and dogs, with no effort at all.

How could such a terrifying existence, such formidable combat power, not inspire awe and make people tremble with fear?

“Leader, things have come to this, what should we do?”

The Shenhuo Sect Grand Elder's heart was filled with panic, and he couldn't help but look at Huo Lingyun, the Leader of Shenhuo Sect, and ask.

His voice carried an undisguised tremor.

Clearly, he had already been awed by Lu Fengming's terrifying combat power.

Lu Fengming was simply too formidable.

So formidable that even if their Shenhuo Sect united all its forces, it wouldn't be enough for Lu Fengming to bully.

This guy in front of them was clearly a cultivator in his twenties, so why did he possess such terrifying strength?

“This guy is simply a devil, a demon. Why does such a terrifying person exist in this world? Why did my Shenhuo Sect provoke such a freak?”

Huo Lingyun simply couldn't imagine why a young cultivator like Lu Fengming would possess such an unrivaled power, why he would be terrifying to such an extent.

He simply couldn't believe everything he saw.

Thinking of this, Huo Lingyun’s heart had already sunk to the bottom, and the worry and fear in his heart became even more apparent.

His eyes were filled with undisguised anxiety and nervousness.

He knew very well that this time, their Shenhuo Sect had provoked the most unprovokable freak in their lives.

The opponent's monstrous level had completely exceeded Huo Lingyun's imagination; the opponent's strength was so terrifying that even if Huo Lingyun and the many strong cultivators of the Shenhuo Sect fought with all their might, they would be no match.

“As things stand, only by inviting the Old Ancestor out of seclusion can we contend with him.”

“Quick… quickly go invite the Old Ancestor!”

Huo Lingyun couldn't help but let out a low voice.

As he said these words, his face grew more anxious; he now only hoped that the Shenhuo Sect's Old Ancestor, who had been dormant for ten thousand years, could emerge from seclusion.

Perhaps only when the Old Ancestor awakened could he turn the tide, save the collapsing edifice, and slay this monstrous evil, preserving the bloodline of their Shenhuo Sect.

Otherwise, the destruction of the Shenhuo Sect would surely be today.

“No need for such trouble, this Old Man has already emerged from seclusion.”

Just as Huo Lingyun was about to use the Shenhuo Sect's last trump card, a muffled voice suddenly resounded across the sky.

Hearing this voice, the many disciples of the Shenhuo Sect also had a drastic change in their expressions.

They took a deep breath, their faces revealing a hint of disbelief.

“Greetings, Old Ancestor!”

“Greetings, Old Ancestor!”

Upon seeing the figure of the Shenhuo Sect Ancestor appear before him, Huo Lingyun hastily knelt down.

The Shenhuo Sect Grand Elder also followed suit, kneeling on the ground, his face full of respect, his tone carrying a hint of excitement.

Clearly, they also hadn't expected the Old Ancestor to truly emerge from seclusion.

“Greetings, Old Ancestor!”

“Greetings, Old Ancestor!”

...

The many Shenhuo Sect disciples who had reacted also knelt down in unison, respectfully welcoming their Old Ancestor.

Clearly, they also hadn't expected to be able to see the Old Ancestor in their lifetime.

One must know that the Shenhuo Sect Ancestor was the greatest legend of the Shenhuo Sect, and also the greatest source of confidence for the Shenhuo Sect.

He was a strong cultivator at the Spirit Division Stage.

The Shenhuo Sect Ancestor had cultivated to the Spirit Division Stage in just over a thousand years, and then entered the ancestral land of the Shenhuo Sect to break through.

This breakthrough lasted for ten thousand years.

The people of the Shenhuo Sect had thought that their Old Ancestor had long since passed away during this period and was no longer in this world.

Not only did many disciples of the Shenhuo Sect believe this, but even the Elders and Huo Lingyun himself thought that after ten thousand years, the Old Ancestor had remained silent, and perhaps had already quietly passed away.

The Old Ancestor's deeds were merely a mythical legend.

Ten thousand years ago, the Shenhuo Sect Ancestor began his breakthrough.

Everyone thought that he was truly in seclusion for a breakthrough.

However, as time passed, the Shenhuo Sect Ancestor remained silent, and even his aura became hidden.

Outsiders simply did not take the Shenhuo Sect Ancestor seriously, only believing that the Shenhuo Sect Ancestor was already a dead man.

The reason why the news of the Shenhuo Sect Ancestor's passing was not announced was simply that the Shenhuo Sect disciples were still dreaming a foolish pipe dream.

Or perhaps they wanted to use the name of such a deceased figure to deter other forces.

Otherwise, with the strong presence of the Shenhuo Sect Ancestor, the Shenhuo Sect would have been able to rise to a higher level in the entire Yan Yang Empire, becoming a first-class force in the Yan Yang Empire.

Even Huo Lingyun, just now, wanting to invite the Shenhuo Sect Ancestor out of seclusion, was merely taking a last resort, treating a dead horse as if it were alive.

He never expected that the Old Ancestor not only hadn't passed away, but his strength had actually advanced to a higher level.

To what terrifying level he had now reached, even Huo Lingyun found it difficult to judge.

Facing this powerful force.

Huo Lingyun privately admitted that he wouldn't be able to last even a few rounds against the Old Ancestor.

With such a strong cultivator as the Old Ancestor present, he would surely be able to turn the tide, preserve the Shenhuo Sect, and also slay this arrogant fellow, Lu Fengming.
