Chapter 757: Chapter 672: Past Causes, Present Effects, The Great Battle Begins!

Just as Chu Xuanji was going berserk, intimidating everyone around, Chen Daozang appeared, bringing with him the Xuanyin Sword and the Yanhuang Furnace.

Both the Xuanyin Sword and the Yanhuang Furnace were famous magical artifacts in the Cultivation World and had previously shone brilliantly in the Ancient Cultivation World.

Among them, the Yanhuang Furnace was known as the most mysterious magical artifact in the history of the Cultivation World. It couldn’t only concoct Elixir Pills, but was also a rare defensive magical artifact with astonishing defensive power.

And the Xuanyin Sword was one of the most terrifyingly powerful attacking magical artifacts in the Ancient Cultivation World!

The leader of the right path in the Ancient Cultivation World had relied on the Xuanyin Sword to display divine might and defeated the leader of the Demon Path who possessed the top-grade high-level magical artifact ’Soul Summoning Banner’.

As the Ancient Cultivation World declined, the Yanhuang Furnace and the Xuanyin Sword both vanished without a trace, until they reappeared in the modern Cultivation World — Chu Xuanji had found them in a Dong Mansion!

There was a time when Chu Xuanji used these two artifacts to shake the four quarters.

Latterly, out of consideration for the mentor-disciple relationship, he had let Chen Daozang go, but he didn’t expect that Chen Daozang wouldn’t immediately leave Huaxia. Instead, while he was away, Chen Daozang sneaked into Mount Tian, broke his Formation, and stole these two artifacts.

Now, Chen Daozang appeared with these two powerful artifacts, instantly drawing the attention of everyone present.

Apart from Chu Xuanji, Yan, and Xi Wei’er, the faces of others revealed more or less a touch of surprise.

It seemed that none of them had expected Chen Daozang to brazenly show up at the conference, and moreover with two powerful artifacts in tow!

"Chen Daozang has ill intentions coming here!"

After the surprise, almost everyone came to this conclusion in their hearts.

In Xi Wei’er’s eyes, a sharp light twinkled, and a faint, hardly noticeable smile appeared on her lips.

Seeing this, both Caesar and Mile immediately determined that Chen Daozang’s appearance at this time was no coincidence. Their originally tense nerves relaxed a bit, and their expressions faintly showed excitement, as if they were anticipating something.

The representatives of the African Union and the Russian Alliance Cultivator Organization appeared thoughtful, evidently guessing something.

Yan furrowed his brows.

And below, representatives of the Cultivation Families and Sects had varying thoughts.

"Chen Daozang, you dare to show up?"

After a brief silence, a bellow erupted in the Buddhist temple, and the Lv Family Patriarch, Lv Yuan, suddenly stood up, glaring at Chen Daozang.

On that day, when Chen Daozang wanted to massacre the Hua Xia Cultivation World, he and Chu Xuanji had fought desperately to stop him, harboring deep-seated hatred for Chen Daozang.

"As a part of the Cultivation World, why can’t I come?"

Chen Daozang was indifferent to the anger of Lv Yuan and the other strong people from the Hua Xia Cultivation World. He spoke with a full smile, seemingly unconcerned about others making a move, his arrogance peaking.

"Since you’re here, then there’s no need for you to leave!"

Yan spoke, his body erupting with intense war intent and killing intent.

Chen Daozang had once tried to cleanse the Hua Xia Cultivation World in blood and joined forces with Jie Dao for a mad slaughter that caused a tragedy. Now that he appeared, as the leader of the Yanhuang Organization and the Guardian of Hua Xia, Yan naturally had to do something.

"That’s right, Chen Daozang, today is your death day!" Lv Yuan chimed in, ready to strike at any moment.

"Chen Daozang, give back the lives of my master and disciples!"

Sect Leader Cang Bo of the Tian Shan Sword Sect was even more forthright, drawing the treasure sword from his waist as he spoke.

In addition, aside from Jiang Yurong, who couldn’t get up, and Wudang Sect Leader Heavenly Master Zhang, other representatives and strong people from the Hua Xia Cultivation World were brimming with intense war intent, just waiting for Yan’s command.

"Heh, are you all thinking of ganging up on me?"

Feeling the intense war intent from everyone, Chen Daozang was utterly unafraid, his face breaking into a cold laugh: "There’s no need to waste your effort. Besides Yan and my old master, the rest of you are nothing but a bunch of chickens and dogs, without any ability to withstand a single blow. However many of you come, it won’t make a difference!"

"Is that so?"

Yan was enraged, and he abruptly stood up, ready to make a move.

"Yan, the cause of the past, the fruit of today, let me do this!"

The silent Chu Xuanji finally spoke. As he did, he grabbed Ye Fan and threw him towards Yan, "Take good care of Xiao Fan for me!"

"Master!"

Ye Fan’s face changed.

On that day, when Chen Daozang wreaked havoc in Mount Tian, Ye Fan had also been there, deeply witnessing Chen Daozang’s strength and terror.

Today, Chen Daozang had arrived with two mighty artifacts, clearly well-prepared, and the situation was greatly disadvantaged for Chu Xuanji.

This... made him very worried for Chu Xuanji’s safety!

"Chu Xuanji, since I’ve appeared today, naturally I intend to settle things with you."

Seeing Chu Xuanji about to act, Chen Daozang remained very calm, as if everything was under his control, "However, there’s no need to rush, old man. Allow me to say a few words first."

Chu Xuanji, upon hearing this, didn’t rush into action, seemingly intrigued as to what Chen Daozang had to say.

Seeing this, Ye Fan, without a word, dashed towards Chu Xuanji, ready to face life and death with his master!

"Little junior brother, are you in a hurry to court death?" Seeing Ye Fan’s action, Chen Daozang let out a mocking laugh.

"Chen Daozang, the one meeting death today is you, isn’t it?"

Yan said, his figure flashing as he moved next to Chu Xuanji.

"Heh, Yan, ranked first in the Divine List and known as the strongest person of our time, do you really think you need to join forces with Chu Xuanji to deal with me?"

Yan’s action caused Chen Daozang’s brows to twitch slightly, but they quickly relaxed as he scoffed in ridicule.

"Why would I need to join forces to take you down?"

Yan said in a deep voice, his confidence as the world’s strongest person fully on display.

"Haha..."

Upon hearing this, Chen Daozang couldn’t help but burst into laughter, then said with a chilling murderous intent, "As expected of the world’s strongest person, truly domineering. Well then, come at me one by one. I’ll send you on your way separately!"

"Such arrogant nonsense!"

Lv Family Patriarch Lv Yuan couldn’t stop sneering. In his view, Chen Daozang had been severely injured by Chu Xuanji last time, and it was hard to say how much of his strength had recovered. Even if he came with the Xuanyin Sword and the Yanhuang Furnace, he might not be a match for Yan.

"That’s right, Chen Daozang, do you think that by bringing the magic artifact you stole from the Evil Emperor, you’ve become invincible in this world?"

Sect Leader Cang Bo of the Tian Shan Sword Sect spoke up in agreement, also disbelieving that Chen Daozang could be Yan’s opponent.

"You all know I am a very cautious person. Well, to prevent you from abandoning your so-called pride as strong people and joining forces, I need to remind you of one thing."

Chen Daozang completely ignored Lv Yuan and Cang Bo, instead smiling at Chu Xuanji and Yan, "According to the rules of this Cultivator’s Convention, participants must temporarily put aside past resentments and must not initiate combat on the convention grounds. If one wishes to fight, they can go to the temple’s Ancient Arena. Violators will be severely punished!"

"Miss Xi Wei’er, you are the host of this convention. Am I right?" Chen Daozang said, turning his gaze to Xi Wei’er at the end.

"Yes."

Xi Wei’er nodded.

"Miss Xi Wei’er, what happens if Yan sneak attacks while I’m dueling Chu Xuanji?" Chen Daozang asked again.

"As one of the main leaders of the Global Cultivator Alliance, if Yan abandons the pride of the strong and takes the lead in breaking the rules by doing something so despicable, the other five leaders will naturally interfere to stop him," replied Xi Wei’er.

"Exactly, we will not allow such a thing to happen!"

Caesar, seeing Xi Wei’er and Chen Daozang in cahoots, solidified his assumption and immediately spoke out in support.

"The convention’s rules are not to be trampled upon, Tianzhu Buddhism must not be desecrated, and it’s not just Yan—should any other member of the Hua Xia Cultivation World delegation act, I’ll be the first to object!" Mile also spoke up, taking a strong position.

"Hey, let’s see if the people from the Hua Xia Cultivation World dare to make a move!"

Following the stances taken by Xi Wei’er, Caesar, and Mile, representatives from the families and sects of the American Cultivator Alliance, European Union, and Tianzhu Alliance below all spoke out with unified attitudes, extremely forceful—should anyone from the Hua Xia Cultivation World dare to act, they too would intervene!

"With that settled, then I can rest easy," Chen Daozang said, smiling slightly.

"Chen Daozang, back then, my master spared your life, but not only did you fail to repent, you now threaten to betray your master with the magic artifact you stole from him...

Overhearing what Sect Leader Cang Bo of the Tian Shan Sword Sect had said and gazing at Chen Daozang’s punchable smile, Ye Fan glared at Chen Daozang with a face full of anger and shouted sternly.

"Junior brother, you’d better just pray for your own fortune."

Chen Daozang mocked with a smile, before shockingly announcing, "Well, I’ve heard just outside the Buddhist temple that Yan has staked his reputation and cultivation on a bet, saying that the destroy virus has not been wiped out from the human race and that it will reappear in the world—that is the truth!"

Whoosh!

Startled by Chen Daozang’s words, the previously quiet scene stirred, with varying degrees of surprise appearing on people’s faces.

Even Chu Xuanji, Yan, and Ye Fan were no exception!

Chu Xuanji, in particular, had a glint in his eye as if he had guessed something.

"However, there’s one thing he got wrong."

Chen Daozang spoke again, his smile unabated and his demeanor lighthearted, yet his words were shockingly heretical, "It’s not only Chu Xuanji and his disciple who have the formula to completely eradicate the destroy virus. I have it too!"

"What... what?"

Upon hearing Chen Daozang’s words again, someone exclaimed in amazement.

At the same time, on the stage, Xi Wei’er, Caesar, and Mile, as if having heard the greatest of good news, immediately beamed with smiles.

In contrast, Yan Yi’s face showed the opposite reaction, his pupils contracting suddenly into the most dangerous pinpoints.

As if to confirm Yan’s suspicion, Chen Daozang once again spoke, directly pronouncing Ye Fan’s death sentence, "So, Miss Xi Wei’er, you need not worry about anything, just go ahead and execute my little junior brother. As for my master himself, leave him to me—we also need to come to an end!"

"You heinous disciple, were you the one who developed and deliberately spread the destroy virus??" Chu Xuanji’s gaze locked on Chen Daozang like a knife, he interrogated coldly.

"Master, even if you know you will die at my hands, there’s no need to slander me like this," Chen Daozang sneered.

"Your master would never engage in such underhanded tactics just to dispose of me!"

"You heinous disciple, come out and face your death!"

Hearing his words, Chu Xuanji, fully aware that even if his judgment was true, Chen Daozang would never admit it, simply cut off further talk.

"Master, rest assured, on this day next year, I will definitely burn offerings at your grave!"

Chen Daozang’s arrogance knew no bounds. He completely regarded Chu Xuanji as a dead man!
