Chapter 2659: Fallen Hallmaster Dao
“Whoosh.”
The noisy discussions on the Sacred Mountain immediately stopped.
This time, everyone felt threatened and kept quiet out of fear, not daring to move at all.
The position of Hallmaster Dao had been taken?
The Council of Ten sat around the seat.
On the sides of Dao Xuanji were Zhong Yuanzi and Yu Kunpeng, who were of a few positions lower.
Even Zhong Yuanzi, who was focused on studying the fusion of elements, noticed something.
After frowning slightly, Zhong Yuanzi gave up his seat.
Others aside, Fang Wenxin was to be rightfully respected by everyone on Sacred Mountain Gui Zhe.
The first generation of red-clothed people were the purest. They laid the most solid foundation for the stability of the Shengshen Continent.
“No thanks.” Fang Wenxin, the old man in red, didn’t even raise his eyebrows.
His eyes were still half-closed as he brushed past Dao Xuanji and stood in the last corner.
He didn’t give her any face at all.
Dao Xuanji was expressionless.
The Kun Peng God, Elder Yu, looked around and sighed. He put away the fishing rod that didn’t suit the location.
He stood there solemnly, knowing that things were going to get serious.
However, he had come in a hurry and hadn’t even changed into a new pair of shoes. At that moment, his restless toes were exposed, and it was quite awkward.
“Can we start now?”
The leader of the three judges, the one in the golden robe, tilted his head and asked.
“Wait a little longer.”
Dao Xuanji looked into the distance.
Not long after, a sword cry sounded in the distance, and it began to drizzle on Sacred Mountain.
“Clang!”
A rainbow light pierced through the sky and turned into an old man holding a sword. He nodded at Dao Xuanji from afar and landed on the side.
“This is…”
There was a commotion among the people below. Some found him familiar, while others were sure that there was no such person on Sacred Mountain.
Just then, a child’s voice sounded, “It’s the Seven Sword Deity, Gu Yu.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a commotion started on Sacred Mountain.
“Elder Gu?”
“He’s the new Seven Sword Deity, Gu Yu?”
“I heard that Elder Gu and Mr. Siren are ancient swordsmen from the same era. They are nearing the semi-saint person stage…”
“No way! Elder Gu has also joined the Holy Divine Palace?”
“Elder Gu is considered half a teacher to me. I didn’t expect to see him at the Sacred Mountain Conference. That is great!”
“But who could invite him, an outsider, to the mountain?”
“He probably came to observe the change in the Council of Ten. The audience is pretty lacking though…”
Before the noisy discussion could stop, many rays of Holy Lights and spiritual lights descended from all directions. The voice of the child sounded from time to time.
“It’s Hong Quan from the Hong Clan.”
“It’s Min Ti from the Min Clan.”
“It’s Jiang Nayi from the Jiang Clan.”
More than ten figures descended the mountain to watch the conference.
Everyone present could sense that a storm was about to brew.
That was because all of the spectators, without exception, greeted Dao Xuanji when they landed.
They were clearly the people Dao Xuanji had found to support her.
Dao Xuanji and the three people from the Judicial Division behind her looked extremely solemn.
“That’s impossible, right?”
“She’s his sister!”
Everyone was shocked and their thoughts were like a tide.
When the audience from the Higher Void and the Demi-Saint families arrived, everyone saw Dao Xuanji turn around and nod at the three golden-robed men behind her.
The golden-robed man holding the edict immediately stepped forward and circulated his spiritual source. His voice resounded in all directions as he said solemnly, “I summon the criminal, Dao Qiongcang!”
…
“Bang!”
The void was destroyed, and the giant beast engaged.
When the terrifying white-haired monster suddenly appeared in the sky above Qingyuan Mountain, Ye Xiaotian’s reaction was extremely swift.
“Space blockade!”
He turned around, and light and shadow overlapped. Layers of space interweaved, wanting to seal the ghost beast inside.
The spatial crack was so big that it looked like the sky had shattered. It could be said that all the Saints present were well-prepared.
Unexpectedly, before the space was sealed, the giant beast opened its mouth and inhaled…
“Boom!”
Qingyuan Mountain’s spiritual source suddenly disappeared.
The complex space blockage was destroyed and devoured by the giant beast.
“Impossible!” Ye Xiaotian had his pupils tremble in shock as he dodged the attack.
At the critical moment, he barely managed to pull his body out of the giant beast’s mouth.
However, as he moved away, his eyes met the crimson eyes of the white-furred nine-tailed ghost beast…
“Buzz!”
His mind went blank.
All the colors in his vision disappeared.
“Be careful!”
No one had expected the ghost beasts to appear so abruptly on Qingyuan Mountain without any warning.
What was even more surprising was…
Ye Xiaotian was so frightened that he lost his mind after just one exchange of blows.
By the time Yu Zhiwen cried out in alarm, it was already too late.
Ye Xiaotian’s body, which was under control, was held still in mid-air for a moment.
In the eyes of the ghost beast, the dazzling Power Upanishad Formation under his feet was like the best tonic in the world.
“Whoosh!”
The white-haired monster rushed over.
Ye Xiaotian was able to come back to his senses not because he had broken free from the control, but because the control was no longer aimed at him.
According to the saint’s will, the ghost beast had given up on controlling him, not because it had changed its target, but because it was now charging at him.
