Supreme Warrior in the City

Su Yang frowned tightly. This situation with the Taoist Venerable is too peculiar; it has never been seen before.

How could such a supreme being lose sanity?

"Where is the Human Emperor?" Su Yang asked.

Eternal Divine Emperor: "He hasn’t returned!"

"He hasn’t returned?" Su Yang was surprised. With such things happening, why hasn’t the Human Emperor come back?

Eternal Divine Emperor: "He said the Taoist Venerable must have discovered something over there, and he went to investigate."

"What?" Su Yang’s expression changed drastically.

The Taoist Venerable encountered something, turning into what he is now.

Yet the Human Emperor dares to investigate further. Isn’t he afraid of facing the same danger?

"What did he go to investigate?" Su Yang asked urgently.

The Eternal Divine Emperor shrugged: "The situation was too chaotic at that time. After we arrived, the Human Emperor asked us to help control the Taoist Venerable, then he just said a word and left."

"We didn’t even have the time to ask about the situation before he disappeared. We don’t know what he’s investigating."

"We did pursue for a distance, but the Human Emperor was just too fast, and we couldn’t keep up with him!"

Su Yang frowned deeply and said in a low voice, "Go find the Seven Demon Venerable, Wan Du, and the others and have them come to find me."

"Also, alert the others to be on guard and prepare for possible conflict!"

The Eternal Divine Emperor seemed bewildered: "Is this tension necessary?"

"Who would we even be fighting?"

Su Yang shook his head: "I don’t know either."

"But, for something capable of turning the Taoist Venerable into this, I can’t think of anything else besides the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable."

"We must make thorough preparations. If it really is the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable appearing, they could attack us at any time!"

The Eternal Divine Emperor’s face changed instantly.

If the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable made a move personally, the situation would truly spiral out of control.

Not to mention anything else, just the power of the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable alone is beyond what we can contend with.

Among so many people, the Eternal Divine Emperor trusted Su Yang the most.

Even though Su Yang has evaded confronting the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable for so many years, causing some discontent among others,

the Eternal Divine Emperor always believed in Su Yang’s words, knowing that the power of the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable far exceeds their imagination.

So now, learning that the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable might appear, the Eternal Divine Emperor was the most shocked.

He immediately left to inform the Seven Demon Venerable, Wan Du, and others of the situation.

Su Yang stood in the air, looking at the Taoist Venerable within the halo.

After thinking for a moment, Su Yang slowly opened the halo and released the Taoist Venerable.

As soon as the Taoist Venerable was released, he plunged into madness, letting out growling roars like beast cries. His eyes emitted a beast-like light, and he stared straight at Su Yang before suddenly pouncing to tear at Su Yang ferociously.

Su Yang frowned deeply. What exactly is happening with the Taoist Venerable?

Even if he has truly lost his mind, as a peak supreme being, his power is terrifying, with myriad means of attack.

But why is he now using such attack methods?

He resembles a beast, attacking only with his body, biting and clawing?

Could it be that he has forgotten even his magic?

This is akin to instinct!

However, the Taoist Venerable’s physical body is also extremely powerful.

Even with this close combat, any other supreme being would have to handle it carefully.

But Su Yang isn’t afraid of him at all now.

The Undying Golden Body and Undying Bone weren’t something the Taoist Venerable could harm before.

Moreover, over the years, the Misty Qi has tempered his Undying Golden Body and Undying Bone even further.

At this moment, standing still, the Taoist Venerable wouldn’t be able to harm him at all!

As the Taoist Venerable rushed forward, Su Yang reached out and pinned him to the ground.

The Taoist Venerable struggled desperately, but couldn’t break free from Su Yang’s grip.

Yet his hands could still tear at Su Yang’s body repeatedly.

If it were an average supreme being, they would have sustained severe injuries by now.

But Su Yang was unharmed; instead, it was the Taoist Venerable’s hands that were injured while tearing at Su Yang’s Undying Golden Body.

Su Yang pinned the Taoist Venerable down, constantly observing him.

The Taoist Venerable’s eyes were beast-like, filled only with bloodlust and madness.

This situation reminded Su Yang of what he previously encountered in the Feather Spirit Palace.

At that time, Su Yang’s power was quite low, not even reaching the Sub-Saint realm.

Within the palace, in those small palace halls suppressed by the Divine Artifact, there were some particularly mysterious black shadows.

Back then, cultivators from the Nine Realms entered the palace to investigate, and Su Yang was among them. Su Yang saw with his own eyes how those cultivators who entered the small palace halls were possessed by those black shadows, turning into beast-like killing machines.

Even if those cultivators were slain, the shadows would leave their bodies and enter others, continuing to control them as killing machines.

Only the Divine Artifacts on those small palace halls could suppress those shadows. Only those Divine Artifacts could destroy the shadows.

At that time, Su Yang thought those shadows were incredibly powerful.

But as his strength grew, he gradually recognized that the shadows weren’t particularly terrifying.

So, Su Yang slowly forgot about those shadows.

But now, seeing the Taoist Venerable’s condition instantly reminded Su Yang of those past scenarios with the shadows.

Because the Taoist Venerable’s current state is so similar to those previously possessed by shadows.

Having lost their sanity, like a beast attacking others indiscriminately.

Were it not for the Taoist Venerable’s immense power, Su Yang would suspect this result was caused by a black shadow possessing a cultivator.

And now, Su Yang couldn’t help but speculate: could the Taoist Venerable have encountered a similar black shadow?

These shadows must be stronger than those Su Yang encountered before; even a supreme being possessed couldn’t resist their power. Is this why such a situation occurred?

If that were true, the Taoist Venerable is indeed in trouble.

Su Yang knows clearly that once possessed by those shadows, the person’s soul is crushed immediately.

In other words, once possessed by a shadow, the person as they were is essentially dead.

Even if rescued, it’s merely a body; the Divine Soul is definitely gone.

Could it be that the Taoist Venerable’s Divine Soul doesn’t exist anymore? Is he now fully controlled by a black shadow, essentially becoming another person?

Su Yang frowned deeply, thinking that for a supreme being, annihilating a supreme being’s Divine Soul is an extremely difficult task.
