“Old man, so you ran here.”
A low, bellowing voice echoed in the sky. A burst of golden runes descended, protecting the remaining Demon Suppression Army guards and Morigin martial artists.
As a result, the golden battle spear that had been repairing the runes could no longer drop and was directly struck by a divine light, sending it flying away.
On the promising path, a powerful figure, wrapped in runes and radiating a dazzling brilliance, descended.
A surviving Black-rank Demon Extermination General, upon seeing the figure on the promising path, revealed an expression of admiration and excitement on his face.
“It’s General Zhuang Ziyuan.”
Zhuang Ziyuan was the most renowned Earth-rank Demon Extermination General in the Demon Suppression Army’s Far Suppression Legion, possessing incredible talent and powerful strength. He had condensed a top-grade Rune Seed, and although he was only at the mid-stage of the Rune Seed Realm, his true combat power was even higher than that of the late-stage Rune Seed Realm.
Upon seeing Zhuang Ziyuan’s arrival, the Rune Seed Realm expert from Cloud Sea Sect shuddered involuntarily.
He was well aware of the young Demon Extermination General’s immense power. Even the Supreme Elder of their sect, who was at the late-stage of the Rune Seed Realm, was suppressed by this man.
And now, their opponent had appeared here, which meant there was trouble with the Supreme Elder.
“Run!”
Not showing any hesitation, and not even harboring any thoughts of resistance, he immediately fled in desperation.
Although he too was at the mid-stage of the Rune Seed Realm, his power, compared to Zhuang Ziyuan’s, was worlds apart.
Moreover, he was currently seriously injured and not in his peak state.
“Hmph, I can’t stop that old man, Yun Shan, let alone an insignificant midstage Rune Seed Realm like you trying to escape from me?!”
On the promising path, Zhuang Ziyuan radiated a brilliant light all over his body, snorted coldly, and turned his runes into twelve golden rivers that sealed the void.
With a hum, the heaven and earth trembled, as the surviving Rune Seed Realm expert from the Cloud Sea Sect crashed into one of the golden rivers, causing the world to shudder and unleashing a boundless might that made people quake in fear.
With countless rays of auspicious clouds and dazzling brilliance, Zhuang Ziyuan walked through the void like a god.
For every step he took, a Law Rune emerged behind him.
After ninety-eight steps, there were eighty-one runes swirling around him, and they continued to multiply, eventually forming eighty-five Law Runes.
Each Law Rune transformed into a golden river that filled the sky, sealing off heaven and earth.
“Break! Break! Let me break!”
The Rune Seed Realm expert from the Cloud Sea Sect, desperate to break through the multiple layers of the seal, kept on crashing into the golden rivers.
However, the vast difference in power between the two parties resulted in their flesh being torn apart, and their golden blood stained the sky.
After finishing off a Rune Seed Realm expert, the brilliance swirling around Zhuang Ziyuan intensified, and his aura faintly showed signs of transformation.
However, advancing from the mid-stage to the late-stage Rune Seed Realm was not easy, and even with his exceptional talent, it was impossible to make such progress all at once.
“All the Rune Seed Realm experts from the Cloud Sea Sect have been killed, and the Supreme Elder has escaped. Demon Suppression Army guards and all martial artists, hear my order: annihilate the remaining forces of the Cloud Sea Sect with all your might.”
Resonating with runes, and booming with divine sounds, Zhuang Ziyuan’s voice echoed throughout the battlefield spanning thousands of miles.
“The Supreme Elder has fled!”
“The Great Elder and Third Elder were slain?!!”
The Cloud Sea Sect disciples felt the sky crumbling when they heard the news.
The Supreme Elder, the strongest Rune Seed Realm expert apart from the Sect Master and the most significant pillar of support to the Cloud See Sect, had fled just like that.
The Great Elder and Third Elder, experts in the mid-stage and early-stage of the Rune Seed Realm, were also slain.
This outcome was difficult for them to accept.
From the beginning of the war to the present, not even two full days had passed, and the senior experts of the Cloud Sea Sect had either perished or fled.
How long could they, the Gold Body Realm and Transforming Origin Realm disciples, withstand it?
Could the Cloud Sea Sect continue to exist?
“Escape, escape! As long as we join forces with the Sect Master, the Cloud Sea Sect will not be destroyed.”
For a moment, many Cloud Sea Sect elders, stewards, and disciples began to break out in different directions, splitting up into dozens of groups.
“Kill!”
In the sky and on the ground, Demon Suppression Army guards, strong fighters from various martial academies, and independent martial cultivators pursued and killed them relentlessly.
This was a bloody, brutal battle. Amidst the countless explosions and murderous sieges, disciples of the Cloud Sea Sect fell one after another.
However, due to the vast scale of the battlefield and the numerous remnants of the Cloud Sea Sect, many elders and disciples managed to break through the encirclement and eventually escape.
“The Cloud Sea Sect has been defeated!”
Lu Yun, who was still striving to recover from his injuries, changed his expression when he learned of the end of the battle.
He didn’t expect the Cloud Sea Sect to fall so quickly.
Moreover, even the late-stage Rune Seed Realm Supreme Elder had been defeated and forced to flee.
As for the power of a late-stage Rune Seed Realm expert, he didn’t know.
However, even a heavily injured mid-stage Rune Seed Realm expert had inflicted unprecedented damage on him in just a few exchanges.
“In this case, it will be impossible to continue accumulating DemonExtermination Points and acquiring resources.”
Originally, Lu Yun planned to continue accumulating Demon-Extermination Points and search for resources after recovering from his injuries.
But now, there was no way.
The Cloud Sea Sect had been completely defeated, which meant that everything within their territory had become the war spoils of the Demon Suppression Army.
Without permission, even as the Martial Academy’s Saint Child, he couldn’t privately plunder resources.
These were the rules – the Demon Suppression Army’s rules, and the rules of the Yuan Emperor.
Unless, he became part of the Demon Suppression Army’s higher-ups.
Gazing at the now-quiet void, Lu Yun’s expression calmed down somewhat as he ultimately decided to continue recuperating his injuries.
