Chapter 2025 - 2014: The Supreme Emperor Challenges the Western Pope
"Don’t worry, I have my own plans." Lin Zifeng nodded. Not long ago, he studied the history of the Western darkness, and indeed, the Western darkness is different from the Eastern.
But ultimately, everything hinges on strength.
As long as I succeed in stepping into a Saint, the world will be vast and no one will dare to provoke me.
...
Soon, under Lin Zifeng’s lead, the Sky Net members quickly left the town to track down Mo Xiangxi’s whereabouts. Lin Zifeng deliberately brought the dashing guy to the big river where Mo Xiangxi had escaped, and then the group followed the river, relying on the dashing guy’s keen sense of smell to continue their pursuit...
Meanwhile, after Lin Zifeng left Zhonghai City, the Lin Family in Yanjing was eradicated, which allowed many to seize a great opportunity. The division of Yanjing’s territory and the immense benefits were all swallowed up by those small forces.
These days, the Holy Hall has been quiet, relaxing its management of Yanjing and Jiangzhou, fully guarding the Zhonghai City area.
The Divine Sky Sect was infiltrated by a large group of Bright Knights on a certain night, and within just one night, they were utterly slaughtered. All sect disciples had almost no resistance against the powerful Bright Knights.
In just three days, the Mortal World was once again bustling with noise, and the news of the Divine Sky Sect’s destruction swept like a storm. Some even secretly criticized and cursed the Taishang Sect and the Demon God Sect as useless.
Western forces infiltrated the East and destroyed the Divine Sky Sect, which had stood for thousands of years, yet no one stood up to utter a word, instead making a huge commotion to destroy the Holy Hall.
Under pressure, the Sect Leader of the Demon God Sect, Yao Chenfeng, personally came to seek alliance with the Holy Hall, writing off past grudges, and brought a large number of Elemental Power Seeds and numerous Treasure Medicines to negotiate peace with the Holy Hall.
This left many in the Holy Hall puzzled, as they were fiercely battling, and now they came to negotiate peace. And at this moment, Lin Zifeng was not around.
Everything was entirely handed over to Beiming Yu and Nangong Bing to manage.
Initially, Nangong Bing intended to contact Lin Zifeng to discuss the issue further, but Beiming Yu insisted on negotiating peace.
Through contact, Beiming Yu reached Lin Zifeng, and upon hearing that the Demon God Sect and several other remaining Holy Lands came to negotiate peace with the Holy Hall, Lin Zifeng couldn’t help but laugh.
Not only that.
Even many small Huaxia families and some sects, and Dataoism wanted to negotiate peace with the Holy Hall.
Faced with this situation, not only did Lin Zifeng find it odd, but everyone in the Holy Hall found it an unbelievable matter.
With the Demon God Sect representative, most forces wanted to negotiate peace with the Holy Hall, agreeing to a future of non-interference.
However, upon thinking about it, Lin Zifeng realized that it made sense. The early East-West agreement of non-aggression was signed long ago. Even a sect like the Divine Sky Sect, that stood for thousands of years, dared to be wiped out, meaning that Western forces no longer regard the East seriously.
Once relations with the Holy Hall sour, with internal turmoil unresolved, how can they resist Western forces?
Moreover, the strength of the Holy Hall has been growing steadily, and so many forces united did not manage to destroy the Holy Hall, indicating its formidable strength. Furthermore, the crisis of the Holy Hall, with the Western Pope personally present, signifies what?
It implies that the Holy Hall might have significant ties with the Bright Church, and now the Bright Church uses the Divine Sky Sect as an example, and the Divine Sky Sect is one of the main offenders against the Holy Hall, who wouldn’t be afraid?
At this point, they can only negotiate peace with the Holy Hall, paying a huge price to do so.
Thus, further establishing the enormous status of the Holy Hall in Huaxia!
Except for the Taishang Sect, the Holy Hall has almost become the greatest power in Huaxia! No one can rival it!
Moreover, it is rumored that the Taishang Sect’s Supreme Emperor personally went to the West to duel the Western Pope!
The news of the Supreme Emperor challenging the Western Pope is sweeping across like a storm.
Everyone is eagerly anticipating a duel between this pitiable fierce person, the Supreme Emperor, and the Western Pope.
In the battle of the Holy Hall, the Supreme Emperor was defeated at the hands of the Western Pope. However, after the defeat, he was not truly injured and even escaped from the Pope’s hands, proving his incomprehensible skill and boundless mana.
His cultivation almost vaguely rivaled that of the Holy War Angel.
Unfortunately, the Holy War Angel has not appeared, unknown whether alive or dead, leaving everyone in great anticipation, as these two are dubbed the dual potential heroes of the East. If they were to compete one day, who would be the true king of the East!
But on the other hand, Lin Zifeng finally felt relieved, since the Demon God Sect and the others are willing to negotiate peace with the Holy Hall. In this special and crucial period, he naturally has no reason to refuse.
It’s important to know that the Western Pope assisted him, yet Lin Zifeng is still in the dark as to why, as he practically has no connection with the Pope, and while in the Greece Wilderness, he even destroyed the Death Tomb, concluding that the Pope should hate him to the core.
But then? The Western Pope not only helped him but also significantly impacted and intimidated his enemies!
So, Lin Zifeng now has no choice. If one day the Pope is not genuinely helping him but using him in some way, by then, his own strength should have matured.
.........
On the fifth day, Lin Zifeng, with the temporarily assembled Sky Net members, finally found Mo Xiangxi’s whereabouts in Russian territory.
"Damn! This old dog sure knows how to run, it took us days to finally track him down."
In a certain forbidden life zone forest in Russia, led by Lin Zifeng, the group was extremely cautious.
Here, they might encounter those Western experts, and if a battle breaks out over Mo Xiangxi, it would not be worthwhile.
"Wait!"
Suddenly, the ears of the dashing guy perked up sharply, as he has absolute sensitivity to the dense forest.
This area is in Russia, fraught with danger, with Mo Xiangxi in the dark and them in the light. If a battle breaks out here, it offers no benefit to them.
"That damn old dog Mo is probably nearby, everyone must be careful, as the terrain here is fraught with crises, and we might find ourselves in dire straits, be extremely cautious."
The dashing guy rarely wore a solemn expression. From the moment they entered this area, he was extremely vigilant, as after all, this place was not in Huaxia and posed numerous threats.
Moreover, this forest is reputed to be the most dangerous in Russia, fraught with dangers. It is highly likely that with one misstep, they could step on a landmine, with no time for regret as their bodies would be blown to pieces!
In addition, the forest dangers include those terrifying marshes, into which sinking would be inescapable for ordinary people.
Fierce beasts and raptors are frequent visitors here; the unlucky ones would certainly be torn apart by these ferocious creatures!
Facing all this, none of them wanted to carelessly lose an arm or a leg, as that would be the end.
