Chapter 2312 - 2311: Seeing the Light Again!
Star Region Calendar, 89659th Century, Year 9668, January 8th.
The hundred billion lands that had been silent for about ten years, surged into life on this day.
Not because of the Extraterritorial Demon, but because of... the Phoenix Sect!
...
Outside the Xumi Ring of the Holy Son, numerous powerful beings still sat cross-legged.
For five years, they seemed to have been accustomed to this kind of besieging.
Since the Phoenix Sect had not come out, they simply absorbed nature’s spiritual energy here, or cultivated with Spirit Crystals or Star Crystals.
After all, as long as it’s on this piece of hundred billion lands, cultivation anywhere is still cultivation.
However, they bore the sect mission, their spirits tense, and while cultivating, they did not forget to extend their Divine Senses.
If they detected someone from the Phoenix Sect coming out, even if they were in a breakthrough, they would be immediately interrupted.
Their primary goal was to kill people from the Phoenix Sect, to demonstrate the intimidation of the past!
If possible, then... it would naturally be best to annihilate the entire Phoenix Sect!
Numerous specks of dust scattered over them, yet they seemed oblivious to it.
"Hoo..."
At some point, a gust of wind blew, brushing away some of the dust on them.
This wind came quickly, and left just as swiftly, rather abruptly.
A few Dao Sovereign Realm super powerhouses slightly furrowed their brows and opened their eyes.
"Where did the wind come from?"
They looked toward the direction the wind was coming from; that place... is the Void!
This wind was blowing down from above.
And everyone knew that the Void they were gazing at was precisely the hiding place of the Phoenix Sect all along!
Just as they were about to withdraw their gaze and continue meditating—
A figure suddenly appeared.
"Huh?"
These few Dao Sovereign Realm super powerhouses were all taken aback; in the first instant, they thought they were seeing things.
The eyes that were about to close suddenly widened, their heads lifting directly to look at that figure!
This look made their complexions immediately turn dark.
"Purple Demon King, Shen Li?!"
"True form... this is a true form, not an illusion!"
"Phoenix Sect, you’ve been hiding for five years, and you’ve finally decided to come out?"
"Hahahahaha... I thought you were planning to hide for a thousand years!"
With the first speaker, more and more voices spread around.
Swish swish swish—
In this moment, everyone present sitting cross-legged suddenly opened their eyes!
Upon the eight Heavenly Emperor Realm powerhouses, terrifying pressure blasted out with a bang!
"Everyone."
Shen Li glanced at the people below and said calmly, "It’s been five years; thank you for waiting."
"To destroy your Phoenix Sect, whether it’s five years, even fifty, five hundred, what does it matter?!" someone shouted angrily.
Shen Li looked at this person, "If I remember correctly, you should be the Grand Elder of the Giant Spirit Sect, Seventh Grade Dao Sovereign Realm super powerhouse, Wu Feng, right?"
Upon hearing this, the other sneered, "You have a good memory; I have never seen you face to face!"
"Even if we’ve never met, you recognize me, don’t you?" Shen Li said.
"Of course I recognize you!"
Wu Feng stood up, "The Phoenix Sect’s strongest, Purple Demon King Shen Li, also a super powerhouse at the peak of the Dao Sovereign Realm, how could I not recognize you?"
"I’m not the Phoenix Sect’s strongest, you overthink,"
Shen Li shook his head and said, "Of course, even if I’m not the strongest, I’ve never regarded you as anything!"
"What did you say?!"
Wu Feng’s expression turned cold, "Getting the chance to say these words is your fortune, and you still push it?!"
"The fact that you are alive at this moment is the real fortune."
Shen Li said indifferently, not waiting for Wu Feng to speak again, and looked at others.
He could feel the murderous intent in these people, could also feel the frostiness of their aura.
But...
He was not afraid!
"Everyone."
Shen Li took a deep breath, "The Phoenix Sect is no longer the past Phoenix Sect. You, esteemed in the Dao Sovereign Realm, Heavenly Emperor Realm, have been here besieging for five years; indeed, it has been hard for you, but... as for what to say next, I urge you all to really think carefully."
"The Phoenix Sect is a great enemy of the entire Lower-Class Star Region, equivalent to the Extraterritorial Demon!"
A Heavenly Emperor Realm powerhouse spoke: "To destroy you, need any more thinking?"
"What a massive accusation..."
Shen Li sneered disdainfully, and his expression suddenly turned cold, glaring at this Heavenly Emperor Realm powerhouse, "Since you’re so eager to annihilate the Phoenix Sect, today... the first one I’ll kill is you!"
"Boom!!!"
As the words fell, Shen Li’s clothing suddenly flared, terrifying pressure and aura burst out directly at this moment.
The people below were all petrified at this moment.
"Heavenly Emperor Realm? You’re Heavenly Emperor Realm?"
"In five years, you actually reached the Heavenly Emperor Realm!"
"What a terrifying cultivation speed!!!"
Numerous voices of disbelief echoed, and those Dao Sovereign Realm super powerhouses all had their pupils contracted, expressions changed drastically!
Yet here, Shen Li did not care for them at all; his figure stepped into the Void, immediately causing cracks to appear.
He was like a missile speeding over, arriving before that Heavenly Emperor Realm in a flash, his palm transformed and slapped fiercely.
"Even if you’ve broken through to the Heavenly Emperor Realm, so what?!"
That Heavenly Emperor Realm powerhouse said coldly, "Both of us are First Grade Heavenly Emperor Realm, but how many years have I been immersed in the First Grade Heavenly Emperor Realm? And you, you’ve just broken through!"
"Boom!!!"
Speaking, he also made a move, assaulting Shen Li.
As for the others...
Besides those in the Dao Sovereign Realm, the other seven Heavenly Emperor Realm powerhouses didn’t hesitate at all, all attacking Shen Li at this moment!
The Phoenix Sect having a Heavenly Emperor Realm was definitely not good news for them.
However, since this person was so arrogant, just breaking through to the Heavenly Emperor Realm, and dared to show his true form, they naturally would also join forces to eradicate him, cutting off this arm of the Phoenix Sect!
"Rustle rustle rustle..."
Numerous attacks rained down, bombarding Shen Li from all directions without leaving any gaps.
Yet over here, Shen Li clearly saw these attacks but didn’t care at all!
Such a scene made those Heavenly Emperor Realm even more furious!
Shen Li, this obviously disregarded their attacks!
"Courting death!"
"You don’t want to live, then I’ll oblige you!"
The crowd spoke, their methods becoming even sharper.
And just as these attacks were about to hit Shen Li, these Heavenly Emperor Realm powerhouses were already imagining how tragically Shen Li would die—
"Boom boom boom boom!"
Tremendous illusory palms suddenly extended from the void, grabbing their attacks, and then...
They all shattered!!!
