The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3140 - 3135: Skyfire Male Lion_1
Previously on The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms...
Navigating the Universe Starry Sky was a task Yang Chen had mastered through extensive experience. By following his map and utilizing the Spirit Leaf Flying Boat, transitioning between different realms had become significantly less daunting than his initial attempts.
As long as he maintained a clear course and remained vigilant against hazards like the Barren Black Hole—a phenomenon so dangerous that even Heaven-appointed or Sky-separating stage experts would retreat from it—there was little to fear. With his map accurately detailed, Yang Chen circumvented obstacles with ease, ensuring a seamless journey.
His destination, Jiang Wenxing, was situated a mere month’s travel from the Divine Night Sect. After thirty days of traversing the void, Yang Chen quietly breached the boundaries of this plane.
Task reports indicated that the local powerhouse only possessed a cultivation level of a half-step Heavenly Leaving Realm, failing to reach the Heaven-separated Realm. Given Yang Chen's current realm and cultivation, slipping into this world undetected was a simple matter.
To survey the landscape, Yang Chen employed his soul-searching technique, having already mastered the Third Layer of the Forbidden Divine Art. This allowed him to gain a comprehensive view of the various regions within the plane. After a brief observation, he gathered significant intel.
"The situation matches the description from the light sphere. A full-scale war between humanity and demonic beasts has broken out. Interestingly, the demonic beasts have discovered a method to command ancient beasts. Currently, the demonic beasts hold the advantage, leaving the humans struggling to survive across the board."
Having grasped the general state of affairs, Yang Chen vanished in a blur of motion. He needed to reach the eastern sector of the plane to locate the Golden Yuan Sect, the central hub for human resistance.
Traversing the interior of a plane was trivial for him thanks to his Spacetime Dao Intent. Two days later, he hovered in the clouds above the Golden Yuan Sect, observing the scene below.
While the immediate vicinity of the Golden Yuan Sect remained relatively untouched by the fires of conflict, the encroaching offensive of the demonic beast legions was visible in the distance. It was clear that without a drastic solution, the Golden Yuan Sect would eventually fall victim to their relentless ferocity.
Since he was there to provide assistance, Yang Chen bypassed formal introductions and simply released his Qi. The sudden eruption of his aura triggered an immediate reaction from the sect below.
"Who goes there!"
The Ancestor of the Golden Yuan Sect, a half-step Heavenly Leaving Realm expert, emerged instantly. Accompanied by three Boundaryless Experts, they intercepted Yang Chen in the blink of an eye.
"Reinforcements from the Divine Night Sect. Here is the token," Yang Chen stated, glancing at their cultivation levels and inwardly shaking his head. While all four were technically in the Realmless Stage, their comprehension of laws and the density of their Dao Intent Inscriptions were lacking.
Even their leader, despite being a half-step Heavenly Leaving Realm expert, possessed a weak Qi that was only marginally superior to Boundaryless cultivators from the Spirit Realm. Without further chatter, Yang Chen presented his identification token.
The sight of the token caused the expressions of the Boundaryless Stage Experts to shift instantly, replaced by a mixture of shock and reverence.
"Ah, an esteemed visitor from the Divine Night Sect! Please forgive our lack of hospitality; we did not realize you had arrived. We hope you can overlook our rudeness, Sir." The Boundaryless cultivators bowed deeply, their tone dripping with respect.
Despite their shared Boundaryless Stage status, even the half-step Heavenly Leaving Realm leader treated Yang Chen with the deference one might show a superior, instinctively adopting the posture of a junior.
Yang Chen hadn't anticipated his Divine Night Sect status to carry such weight here, though it made sense. Figures like Ji Yue Shuang were treated with respect by even Heaven-separated Realm Experts when traveling. This was due both to their elite lineage and the fact that someone like Ji Yue Shuang possessed the strength to challenge ordinary Heaven-separated Realm Experts.
The No Realm cultivators began introducing themselves one by one.
"This old man is Fu Shenghan, the Ancestor of the Golden Yuan Sect. Sir, please, let us move inside to discuss matters further," the half-step Heavenly Leaving Realm expert said with a flattering smile.
Yang Chen did not decline, replying calmly, "Very well, lead the way."
Fu Shenghan hurriedly guided him into the sect. Once inside, he immediately commanded servants to prepare exquisite delicacies and spirit fruits, terrified of showing any sign of disrespect toward Yang Chen.
Waving a hand dismissively, Yang Chen said, "That is enough; there is no need for such formalities. Time is of the essence for everyone here, so let us be direct. Who is leading the demonic beasts in this plane, and who is the primary target that needs to be eliminated?"
At this question, Fu Shenghan paused, a look of hesitation crossing his face. Seeing this, Yang Chen’s brow furrowed.
"Does Daoist Friend Fu have something difficult to share?" Yang Chen inquired.
Fu Shenghan forced a laugh. "No, not at all. Sir Yang Chen is overthinking things. I simply thought that since you have traveled a great distance, you should rest in our sect for a few days before we dive into the demonic beast situation. We wouldn't want to overwork you, Sir."
Yang Chen narrowed his eyes but remained silent. With his intellect, it was obvious that Fu Shenghan wasn't worried about his fatigue; he was clearly concealing something. However, he chose not to press the issue immediately. His Lingxi Divine Pupil suggested that while Fu Shenghan and the others were struggling to speak openly, they harbored no genuine ill intent.
"Fine," he said. "I will rest for a few days. You may discuss things among yourselves and inform me later."
Relieved by Yang Chen's easy agreement, Fu Shenghan laughed quickly. "Sir Yang Chen, we have a sacred treasure land in the rear mountains of the Golden Yuan Sect. I promise it will provide a most satisfying rest..."
Fu Shenghan personally saw to Yang Chen’s accommodations. Once he was settled, the other Boundaryless cultivators gathered with Fu Shenghan, their faces etched with worry.
"Senior Brother Fu, Yang Chen is also just a Boundaryless cultivator. You are at the half-step Heavenly Leaving Realm; is there truly a need to be so subservient to him?" the other experts asked, confused.
Fu Shenghan replied coldly, "What do you know? He may look like a Boundaryless cultivator, but he hails from the Divine Night Sect. His power is likely extraordinary, probably exceeding mine and one of yours combined. Never underestimate a disciple of the Divine Night Sect. Any Realmless cultivator capable of joining their ranks and being sent on such a mission is no ordinary person."
"But even if he is a powerhouse from the Divine Night Sect, our predicament..."
They all looked downcast as the gravity of the situation hit them.
"Who could have predicted the Divine Night Sect would send someone so quickly? Now that he's here, how do we explain the reality of our situation?"
"Sigh, who would have thought the Skyfire Male Lion would actually break through to the Heaven-separated Realm? How can we possibly tell Sir Yang Chen from the Divine Night Sect about this?"
"But if we keep quiet, the truth will come out eventually."
The Boundaryless cultivators fell into a tense, heated debate. Fu Shenghan eventually signaled for silence with a wave of his hand.
"We must inform him, but the timing isn't right yet. I feared that if I spoke the truth just now, Sir Yang would have departed immediately. If that happens, the Golden Yuan Sect won't survive long enough for the next wave of reinforcements to arrive."
