Chapter 464 - 246: Seizing the Array Banner, Sweeping Away the Extreme Martial Sect
The Divinity-Sealing Seal, an unknown-level treasure he obtained when he destroyed the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold, as he had never used it to its full potential.
The Divinity-Sealing Seal is quite peculiar, specifically used to seal Primordial Spirits. When used, the sealing power also targets the user’s Primordial Spirit, so he dares not use it fully, fearing it might seal his own Primordial Spirit!
Without exposing the Human King Bell or using the Sun True Flame Palm, this peculiar Divine Soldier might be the only way to break this Martial King Array.
Rumble...
The Big Banner smashed down with the momentum of annihilating everything, aiming to shatter Wei Fan’s Golden Body. He flashed away from Jiang Li’s sight, and the Divinity-Sealing Seal in his hand emitted strange fluctuations and struck out fiercely.
Brilliant light once again exploded from Jiang Li’s body, resisting the strike of the Divinity-Sealing Seal, which halted a mere three inches outside his body, unable to advance further.
A strange power directly ignored these light screens and suddenly rushed into Jiang Li’s body.
"Argh..."
In the next moment, Jiang Li’s eyes turned white, and his aura quickly weakened. Simultaneously, the Big Banner in his hand fell powerless, and his body plummeted from the void.
"..."
Instantly, all disciples of the Extreme Martial Sect widened their eyes in disbelief, watching this scene.
How did Wei Fan, who was chased and beaten by the Sect Leader earlier, suddenly manage to "kill" Sect Leader Jiang Li?
Jiang He looked horrified: "Senior Brother Jiang Li..."
Wei Fan’s attack was clearly blocked by the Array, yet how did Senior Brother still get into trouble?
"Isn’t the Martial King Array broken now!"
Wei Fan reached out to grab the fallen Array Banner: "Now it’s your turn to experience the power of the Martial King Array!"
This type of Array Banner, like the Divine Soldier, does not require a master. Whoever holds the Array Banner is its master.
As power infused the Big Banner, the entire Grand Array linked with Wei Fan, and with just a thought, the array’s power surged like a reversing river, causing brilliant light to emanate from his body.
The tumultuous power caused his Golden Body to swell.
"Not good!"
"The Array Banner has been seized by Wei Fan; now he is the master of the Martial King Array!"
"Quick, escape!"
"The Extreme Martial Sect is finished!"
...
All members of the Extreme Martial Sect’s expressions changed dramatically, emitting terrified screams as they severed their connections with the Grand Array and fled desperately.
Boom!
With a sweep of the Big Banner in Wei Fan’s hand, two or three Extreme Martial Sect Martial Venerables instantly exploded into powder, their bones annihilated.
Witnessing this, everyone from the Extreme Martial Sect felt a shiver up their spines, wishing their parents had given them more legs.
"If you don’t want to die, get out of the Extreme Martial Sect immediately. Anyone who still dares to identify as an Extreme Martial Sect disciple in the future, don’t blame me for settling accounts!"
Wei Fan swung the Big Banner back and forth, and terrifying fluctuations swept out in waves. In mere moments, none of the Martial Venerables of the Extreme Martial Sect were left alive.
Under the power of their own Martial King Array, even the Five-Colored Golden Body Ninth Forging Martial Venerables were crushed like ants.
They indeed had legacy techniques left by the Martial King, but they had no time to use them before being exterminated by Wei Fan.
Another reason was that most of the legacy left by the Martial King was on Jiang Li, the Sect Leader, and none of the ordinary Elders had them. Thus, as the Array Banner fell into Wei Fan’s hands, the entire Extreme Martial Sect’s fate of annihilation was sealed, with no chance of reversal.
He didn’t chase after and kill all the remaining disciples of the Extreme Martial Sect; he was no House-Slaying Demon Fiend. Exterminating the Martial Venerables to prevent future retaliation was enough.
After issuing the warning, he used the Big Banner to control and contract the array.
The disciples who escaped the Extreme Martial Sect did not linger long and quickly dispersed in different directions.
That day, the Jianghu of Zhao Kingdom was shaken when news spread of Wei Fan single-handedly exterminating the Extreme Martial Sect, which had Martial King heritage, and the news swept through neighboring kingdoms like a storm.
"The Extreme Martial Sect is annihilated!"
Ji Qingyue descended, her face full of shock. She had seen Wei Fan do many outrageous things, but she never thought he could truly destroy a sect with Martial King heritage single-handedly.
Wei Fan put away the Array Banner and walked over to Jiang Li, whose Primordial Spirit was sealed, first taking Jiang Li’s Storage Gourd.
At this moment, Jiang Li seemed to be asleep, his expression calm, his breath steady and long-lasting, with no reaction to external stimuli.
"This Divinity-Sealing Seal is at least an Exotic Treasure refined by a Martial King, possibly even stronger!"
Even now, he couldn’t utilize the full power of the Divinity-Sealing Seal, regretting not interrogating the Martial Venerable of the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold about the seal’s origins when he had directly slain him back then.
However, at that time, he hadn’t thought that the Divinity-Sealing Seal would be such a powerful weapon.
Ji Qingyue showed a look of curiosity: "What are you planning to do with the Extreme Martial Sect?"
The Martial King Array of the Extreme Martial Sect was still intact and undamaged. It would be a true pity if Wei Fan were to destroy it.
Moreover, besides the array, the Extreme Martial Sect was a true cultivation holy land. The essence qi of heaven and earth was rich here. For low-level martial artists, cultivating here for a day was equivalent to several days outside.
Wei Fan showed a contemplative look, as he initially didn’t think he could take the Extreme Martial Sect intact.
Although he despised such places, he knew that if used well, it could cultivate many experts for the Human Race.
After pondering for a few moments, he looked at Ji Qingyue: "Hand it over to the Zhao Kingdom’s Demon Suppression Bureau, to train their Demon Suppression Guards. What do you think?"
Ji Qingyue’s eyes lit up: "Very impressive. For ordinary martial artists, training in a place like this is almost like taking drugs—cultivation grows rapidly. It can certainly nurture a batch of experts.
As I know, the Zhao Kingdom’s Demon Suppression Bureau’s strength is not very strong. They are often at a disadvantage in their confrontations with the Demon Fiends!
But the fear is that it might be used by those with ulterior motives and become private property for some nobles!"
Wei Fan shook his head: "If others handed it to the Zhao Kingdom’s Demon Suppression Bureau, this might happen, but I’m different. As long as they still fear me, they wouldn’t dare use my things for private gain."
As he spoke, he took out the Demon Hunter Waist Token: "I am Demon Hunter Patrol Envoy Wei Fan, commanding the Zhao Kingdom’s Demon Suppression Bureau’s Garrison Commander to come to the old site of the Extreme Martial Sect to see me!"
He had no intention of occupying the Extreme Martial Sect himself. Though it’s a cultivation holy land, to a Martial Venerable powerhouse like him, it’s not much different from the wilderness.
"Patrol Envoy Wei Fan? Old site of the Extreme Martial Sect? The Wei Fan who killed Niu Dingtian?"
At the Kyoto Demon Suppression Bureau Headquarters, Garrison Commander Lu Yongnian showed a puzzled look.
He knew of the Demon Hunter Patrol Envoy Wei Fan, and he knew of Wei Fan’s killing of the Five-Colored Demon Bull Clan Leader Niu Dingtian. The confusion was because of the mention of the old site of the Extreme Martial Sect in the message.
The Zhao Kingdom only has the Extreme Martial Sect, so where is there an "old site" of it?
But this message couldn’t be fake, as only the Demon Hunter Patrol Envoy’s Waist Token could directly contact the Garrison Commander.
"Could it be that there is a place in the Zhao Kingdom that I don’t know of, called the old site of the Extreme Martial Sect?"
After pondering, he decided to meet Wei Fan. This was a Killing God, and who knows what madness he’s up to in the Zhao Kingdom, wanting to meet the Zhao Kingdom Demon Suppression Bureau’s Garrison Commander; now is the right time for him to handle this situation at the Kyoto office.
But before seeing Wei Fan, he needed to figure out where this old site of the Extreme Martial Sect was.
Lu Yongnian was about to call his Assistant General to investigate the location of the old site when the Assistant General hurriedly rushed in: "My lord, something terrible has happened?"
Lu Yongnian’s heart sank, and he asked gravely: "What happened? Did the Demon Fiends breach the defenses?"
The Assistant General shook his head: "None of that. Just now, the logistics department intelligence reported that because the Extreme Martial Sect once sent people to trouble Wei Fan, Wei Fan has come to take revenge and has already exterminated the Extreme Martial Sect. Including Sect Leader Jiang Li, all the Martial Venerable powerhouses of the Extreme Martial Sect were killed, not a single one survived, and the remaining disciples have fled.
The Extreme Martial Sect has been wiped out by this House-Slaying Demon Fiend."
Lu Yongnian felt his scalp tingle, finally understanding what the old site of the Extreme Martial Sect was. The Extreme Martial Sect has been destroyed, and its current location is called the old site of the Extreme Martial Sect.
This ferocious being has really gone mad in the Zhao Kingdom, wiping out the Extreme Martial Sect.
"Is there an error in the report? The Extreme Martial Sect has the Martial King inheritance, how many experts did Wei Fan bring?"
Lu Yongnian was still a bit skeptical that the Extreme Martial Sect could be wiped out like this, knowing its influence in the Zhao Kingdom, which even the Imperial Family fears to some extent.
Even though Wei Fan had the record of single-handedly killing He Jiuling and Niu Dingtian, he didn’t think Wei Fan could single-handedly destroy the Extreme Martial Sect.
The Martial King inheritance meant that as long as the array left by the Martial King was intact, it couldn’t be broken by one or two Martial Venerables unless a Martial King took action; otherwise, the Extreme Martial Sect wouldn’t be destroyed. This is why these Martial King sects are so arrogant.
The existence of the Martial King Array is enough to ensure the continuation of their lineage; daring to attack their mountain gate, who kills whom is still unknown.
The Assistant General shook his head again: "The report is correct. This message is from a Divine Realm Martial Sect of the Extreme Martial Sect who escaped. These scoundrels usually don’t resist the Demon Fiends, but when trouble arises, they ask the Demon Suppression Bureau for help, saying that Wei Fan is wantonly killing innocents and wants the Demon Suppression Bureau to suppress Wei Fan.
According to this escaping Divine Realm Martial Sect of the Extreme Martial Sect, Wei Fan only brought one woman, but that woman didn’t make a move. It was Wei Fan, single-handedly, using a mysterious method to pass through the protective array of the Extreme Martial Sect and suddenly dealt with Jiang Li, who controlled the array, thus exterminating the Extreme Martial Sect!"
Lu Yongnian gasped, shocked that the Extreme Martial Sect was wiped out by one person. This is somewhat terrifying.
The array set up by the Martial King didn’t even stop Wei Fan.
"So what does he mean by summoning me to the old site of the Extreme Martial Sect now? To help capture the escaped disciples of the Extreme Martial Sect?"
After thinking for a while, Lu Yongnian didn’t find an answer, so he chose to not think about it. Whatever the reason, he had to go see Wei Fan at the Extreme Martial Sect—he couldn’t afford to offend this Killing God.
"Wei Fan summoned me at the Extreme Martial Sect. I’m heading there now. If I don’t come back, you shall inform the other Garrison Commanders and let them find the Demon Hunter Organization to seek justice for me."
Not knowing if he would return from the hands of this Killing God, Wei Fan, he told of the matter of Wei Fan summoning him to the Extreme Martial Sect.
If he doesn’t return, he hopes they could help him find the Demon Hunter Organization to seek justice for him.
After instructing the Assistant General, Lu Yongnian soared into the sky, heading towards the location of the Extreme Martial Sect.
