Supreme Lord of Towers

Although the Celestial Cry Mountain Range is extremely far from the Azure Sky Immortal Sect, the speed of the teleportation array was incredibly swift. It took less than five hours to transport Ye Chen and his group to their destination.

Buzz!

As the void trembled, Ye Chen and his group were enveloped in a dazzling glow and emerged from the spatial channel, descending to the ground.

What met Ye Chen's eyes was a vast canyon, teeming with shadows of people all around.

These people, like Ye Chen and his companions, had come to the Celestial Cry Mountain Range to undertake the demon-slaying mission.

"Junior Brother Ye Chen, this place is a vital teleportation point within the Celestial Cry Mountain Range. Most cultivators at the Divine Mansion Realm will be transmitted here," Xu Yan said with a grin.

"Those cultivators don't seem to be from the Azure Sky Immortal Sect, do they?" Ye Chen glanced around and immediately noticed many unfamiliar faces.

Their robes were clearly different from those of Azure Sky Immortal Sect disciples.

Some robes bore intricately carved small swords that appeared lifelike.

On some others, exquisite patterns covered the fabric, appearing extraordinarily beautiful.

"Junior Brother Ye Chen, they are disciples of the Wan Jian Xian Sect and the Hundred Flowers Immortal Sect," Xu Yan explained to Ye Chen.

The Wan Jian Xian Sect is the most powerful immortal sect in Sword Province, even more profound in heritage than the Azure Sky Immortal Sect, with disciples mainly focusing on the Sword Dao.

In contrast, the Hundred Flowers Immortal Sect is the most powerful immortal sect in Hua Province, and its disciples are all female, somewhat similar to the Piaomiao Peak of the Azure Sky Immortal Sect.

Since both Sword Province and Hua Province border the Celestial Cry Mountain Range,

this time, these two immortal sects have also dispatched many disciples into the mountain range to undertake the demon-slaying mission.

A loud buzz resounded.

At that moment, not far from Ye Chen, the void suddenly trembled, and a mass of radiant light flew out, enveloping a large group of cultivators.

These cultivators wore battle robes engraved with lightning patterns, exuding an aura of dominance.

"It's the disciples of the Thunder Prison Immortal Sect, they've also arrived," the disciples from Overlord Body Peak standing beside Ye Chen looked with apprehension in their eyes.

The Thunder Prison Immortal Sect, although like the Azure Sky Immortal Sect, is a second-class immortal sect.

However, its overall strength far surpasses that of the Azure Sky Immortal Sect,

making it undoubtedly the strongest immortal sect among the five surrounding provinces.

Because of this, even the disciples of the Azure Sky Immortal Sect are extremely wary of the Thunder Prison Immortal Sect.

Unless absolutely necessary, they would never provoke the Thunder Prison Immortal Sect lightly.

"Thunder Prison Immortal Sect? I recall that Venerable Changfeng, who outbid me for the Immortal Golden Thunder, is the Vice Sect Leader of Thunder Prison Immortal Sect," Ye Chen couldn't help but muse to himself.

"Junior Brother Ye Chen, the disciples of Thunder Prison Immortal Sect are not to be trifled with. If we encounter them, we better avoid them, not causing any additional issues," Xu Yan couldn't help but admonish Ye Chen.

Even he harbored some apprehension toward the disciples of Thunder Prison Immortal Sect.

It's known that the Thunder Prison Immortal Sect not only has unparalleled heritage but also acts extremely domineering.

If accidentally provoked, it could lead to a significant amount of trouble.

Even the higher-ups of the Azure Sky Immortal Sect advise their disciples not to easily provoke Thunder Prison Immortal Sect.

Otherwise, if something happens, even the higher-ups might not be able to protect them.

Woosh, woosh, woosh.

At this moment, figures suddenly soared into the sky and swiftly descended into the canyon.

Many of them appeared exhausted, and some were even covered in blood, as if they had suffered severe injuries!

"Damn it! We were really unlucky this time, encountering an Outer Realm Demon Race with the Demon King bloodline. We nearly faced total annihilation."

"Yes! If we hadn't escaped quickly, we would have been dead by now." The faces of this group of cultivators were all extremely grim, looking as if they had barely survived a terrifying experience.

"Demon King bloodline? They're already very fortunate to have returned alive," Xu Yan couldn't help but comment.

He explained to Ye Chen that this canyon is not only a teleportation point but also a haven for human cultivators.

If human cultivators encounter danger in the Celestial Cry Mountain Range or wish to rest, they would return to this canyon.

After all, the canyon gathered strong individuals from all major forces, generally preventing Divine Mansion Realm demon experts from attacking here.

"Ha! Ye Chen, didn't expect a pathetic fool like you to have the guts to come to the Celestial Cry Mountain Range to undertake a demon-slaying mission. Do you even know your own limits?" At that moment, a mocking voice suddenly echoed around Ye Chen.

Swish!

In the next moment, a woman clad in red luminescent attire stepped out from the crowd, staring coldly at Ye Chen, her lips curled with ridicule.

The woman was none other than Xiahou Ting.

"Hmph! Ye Chen, today will be the day this pathetic fool meets his end. This time, I won't let you return alive! Without the protection of the Overlord Body Peak higher-ups, what are you? Crushing you would be as easy as squashing an ant." As Xiahou Ting finished speaking, another cold voice reverberated among the crowd.

The speaker was Wang Tian, True Disciple of Azure Sky Peak.

He and Xiahou Ting were already aware that Ye Chen had accepted the demon-slaying mission, so they waited for him in this canyon.

This time, they came specifically to end Ye Chen's life.

"What? That person is Azure Sky Immortal Sect's Ye Chen?"

"I heard he possesses a ninefold Qi Sea Foundation and even triggered the rare Ziqi Donglai phenomenon. I wonder if it's true." The eyes of all the cultivators from various forces in the canyon turned toward Ye Chen, full of intense curiosity.

Nowadays, Ye Chen's fame had already spread across several surrounding provinces.

After all, not even Thunder Prison Immortal Sect had anyone with a ninefold Qi Sea Foundation, but Ye Chen did.

This was simply miraculous.

So, even disciples from the Thunder Prison Immortal Sect had heard of Ye Chen, let alone other sects.

"Hmph! A worthless fool unable to awaken his bloodline, what does a ninefold Qi Sea Foundation matter? In the end, he's just a joke." A disciple from the Thunder Prison Immortal Sect couldn't help but sneer, exuding extreme disdain, looking at Ye Chen as if he were watching a clown.
