Although at the time, with the strengths of Wu Bubai, Wu Buhuo, and others, killing Xiao Rugu wasn’t difficult, it could even be said to be very simple.

Yet, the "Great Demon Heart Sutra" was indeed unfathomable and unparalleled.

Back then, Xiao Rugu was clearly killed on the spot, but it wasn’t long before news of Xiao Rugu emerged again in the Small Thousand World.

Xiao Rugu mysteriously resurrected from the dead.

Then, led by Wu Bubai and others, members of the Martial Sect consulted countless ancient texts, and only then confirmed one thing - cultivating the "Great Demon Heart Sutra" to a certain depth would give rise to a Demon Heart.

Those with a Demon Heart, as long as the Demon Heart isn’t completely annihilated, can resurrect from death.

Moreover, the Supreme Martial Realm itself has resurrection effects.

Since then, Xiao Rugu became the shame of the Martial Sect.

For tens of thousands of years, members of the Martial Sect dreamt of killing him.

Even Wu Bubai and Wu Buhuo often went beyond the ancient city, venturing to the Small Thousand World to hunt Xiao Rugu, but without exception, none succeeded.

What’s more hateful is, Xiao Rugu didn’t die, yet from then on, every generation of Martial Sect successors faced Xiao Rugu’s relentless pursuit and revenge. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Due to this, after Xiao Rugu, the update and transmission speed of Martial Sect successors quickened significantly.

And with faster updating and transmission, there was a decline in quality.

After all, a rare supreme-level exceptional talents would only appear once in thousands or even tens of thousands of years; it takes time.

"I hope Qingqing can rise to the occasion and personally end Xiao Rugu!!!" Wu Bubai took a deep breath and said solemnly.

And the thousand or so Martial Sect members present all clenched their fists.

Their murderous intent and hatred for Xiao Rugu permeated their bones.

Just then.

Yun Qingqing walked out from the Nine-story Tower...

Amazingly, Yun Qingqing had already reached the late True Martial Realm!

The inheritance of Martial Arts Will directly allowed her to break through several small realms, advancing like a rocket.

Bear in mind, she was only 19 years old.

"What kind of will?"

Wu Bubai directly approached and asked.

The inheritance of Martial Arts Will is the strongest method the Martial Sect uses to cultivate martial arts practitioners.

Also, it is the Martial Sect’s uniquely powerful inheritance.

This inheritance of Martial Arts Will is categorized into four colors: green, blue, purple, black.

Black is the strongest.

Green is the weakest.

And purple, evidently, is also very strong.

But there are differences within each color.

Purple varies from purple.

"Vermilion Bird." Yun Qingqing didn’t hesitate, responded directly.

"Really?" Wu Bubai’s eyes brightened, those aged eyes trembling slightly.

Not only Wu Bubai, but Wu Buhuo and others were also the same.

Yun Qingqing firmly nodded, even raised her hand, waving in the air.

Suddenly, a faint shadow of the Vermilion Bird appeared before everyone’s eyes.

"Hahaha, great! Great!! Great!!! Heaven finally has eyes!" Wu Bubai laughed heartily, extremely excited.

Among purple Martial Arts Will, the finest kind is Vermilion Bird Will.

Even back then, although Xiao Rugu was purple, he only had the Ancient Viper Will!

It cannot compare to Vermilion Bird!

"Xiao Rugu, are you ready? If you still want to hunt this generation’s Martial Sect successor, perhaps you’re the one who’ll die."

Wu Bubai murmured, decided to expend all of Martial Sect’s strength to nurture Yun Qingqing.

——————

War Abyss.

Zhan Yuan Square.

Ye Tian already drank several cups of tea.

A quarter of an hour had already passed.

As for Ye Yang and Xing Jiusi, each second felt like a year.

It was tormenting.

Ye Tian frowned: "Is your master running late, or has he abandoned you?"

Ye Yang and Xing Jiusi were just about to say something.

Suddenly.

"Boom..."

The entire Zhan Yuan Square, no, the entire War Abyss Plane, distinctly trembled, and listening closely, distinct cries of sorrow and fear came from deep within the heart of the plane.

More alarming was that all spaces within Ye City turned to void.

All became Chaos. Shattering space isn’t difficult.

But to shatter space within a radius of several thousand kilometers or even larger area in one go is indeed a bit horrifying.

And all this was due to one young man’s arrival, just because this young man descended from the sky and landed.

Simply landing caused such commotion.

This young man appeared very young, around 20 years old, but in reality, he was forty to fifty thousand years old.

Of course, for top-level martial arts cultivators, longevity is calculated in millions of years, even endless lifespan; forty to fifty thousand years is truly a young age, very young indeed.

This young man wore a black robe, looked handsome, but exuded a faint gloomy temperament.

Especially his eyes, too profound, profound enough to make people afraid to meet his gaze, as if one glance leads to enchantment, to entering demonic territory.

"Master!!!"

Ye Yang and Xing Jiusi immediately knelt down, respectfully kneeling on the ground. Whereas Ye Tian deeply stared at him.

"Ha-ha, this person has some strength." The Nine Heavens Goddess spoke with some playfulness and amusement: "Unfortunately, your realm is too high compared to his."

At this moment, the entire War Abyss was utterly silent.

Countless eyes focused on the black-robed youth, none could fathom this person’s strength or realm, yet everyone had an inexplicable intuition: this person is strong! Invincibly strong!!! Despairingly strong!

"May I ask the senior’s name?"

Ye Tian smiled slightly and spoke.

He respected truly strong people.

Of course, respect does not prevent him from killing.

"Xiao Rugu."

The black-robed youth revealed a smile and said, "At your young age, you managed to crush my disciple, while my elder disciple is already King Martial Realm and still fears battling you — a good seedling indeed. I admire you; how about you follow me for cultivation from today and become my third disciple?"

Xiao Rugu then said, genuinely interested in Ye Tian.

At around twenty years old, with such strength, it’s rare to find another like him across All Heavens and Worlds.

Moreover, the thing that intrigued him most was Ye Tian’s power level which derived from the ability to fight beyond his limits, and not from his own realm, which was quite interesting.

Ye Yang and Xing Jiusi were anxious; they deeply desired their master to crush Ye Tian.

Otherwise, given Ye Tian’s unchecked personality and existing hatred, even if they became brothers with Ye Tian, the future possibility of Ye Tian killing them remained large, whereas their master only cared about the strength of his disciples, caring not about whether his disciples shared mutual love, unity, right or wrong, and dying at Ye Tian’s hands meant in vain.
