Chapter 207: Ancestor of the Great Chu Imperial Dynasty
"What a fine Heavenly Sin Leaderboard!"
The Lord of Sunset Cloud City roared like a demon lord descending upon the mortal realm. Terrifying demonic might enveloped the entire city, forcing countless people to their knees in an instant. They had no power to resist.
Boundless Saintly fluctuations surged like a vast ocean, as if an ancient demon god had appeared, or a god of slaughter was looking down upon all living beings.
At this moment, everyone wished they could flee this place immediately.
The pressure of a Saint was almost suffocating!
No one was willing to stay in the same city as a demonic Saint, for they never knew when they might be used in a blood sacrifice.
"Om!"
A stream of light broke through the void. Its essence blood surged like a tsunami as it shot upward like a comet, defying the heavens. It moved with incredible speed, attempting to escape into the distance.
This was a Sacred Lord-level figure.
Seeing the Lord of Sunset Cloud City unleash his demonic might, he knew the situation was dire and tried to flee at once.
But in the next second, the Lord of Sunset Cloud City let out a cold snort. It was like a heavy hammer striking the heavens and the earth. The sound wave, like the tolling of a great bell, swept outward. Countless people turned pale and spat out a mouthful of blood.
The Sacred Lord, who had already reached the edge of Sunset Cloud City, was struck as if by a heavy blow. His body staggered, and before he could recover, a massive hand descended from the sky and crushed him into a fine mist of blood.
"Courting death!"
The Lord of Sunset Cloud City retracted his hand. In his palm rolled a single, crystal-clear drop of blood.
This was the essence blood of the Sacred Lord from just a moment ago.
He had refined it in an instant.
"Gulp!"
Beside him, the man swallowed hard as he saw the drop of essence blood.
It was too terrifying.
A Sacred Lord-level figure could not even put up a fight against the City Lord.
He was gone in a single exchange.
If the City Lord wished it, slaughtering everyone in Sunset Cloud City would not take much time at all.
"Who else wishes to leave Sunset Cloud City?"
The Lord of Sunset Cloud City stepped into the sky, his expression cold and emotionless.
His identity had been exposed, and he had completely torn off his disguise. His voice seemed to come from the nine hells, chilling and indifferent.
Every cultivator in the city could hear it. A cold dread washed over them, and their bodies were drenched in cold sweat.
Faced with a Saint, they were simply too weak. They could not possibly win through numbers. Most of them could not even withstand a single thought from a Saint.
They couldn't fight, and they couldn't run.
Instantly, countless people fell into despair.
"It is not that I wish to kill you today. You could have lived a while longer, but the Master of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets has forced my hand. Everyone, may your journey be peaceful."
The Lord of Sunset Cloud City's voice was icy. He extended a hand and pointed a finger at the void.
"Om!"
The grand formation of Sunset Cloud City erupted with dazzling light, brighter than the sun in the sky. Rune after rune, as if forged from fresh blood, appeared with tragic beauty, turning the entire world a deep crimson.
Terrifying fluctuations instantly surged out. The firmament trembled, and the earth shook.
Enormous cracks, with Sunset Cloud City as their epicenter, spread wildly in all directions, as if it were the end of the world.
"Lord of Sunset Cloud City, you dare!" someone shouted in extreme anger.
"What is there that I do not dare?"
The Lord of Sunset Cloud City's expression did not change. He had already been forced into a dead end. Everything he had done in the past had been exposed. By now, experts from the demon or human races were likely already on their way.
Once they arrived, he would surely die.
Since he was going to die, why not risk everything in a final gamble?
"Lord of Sunset Cloud City, you are truly a wolf in sheep's clothing! If not for the Heavenly Sin Leaderboard created by the esteemed Master of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, who knows how long you would have hidden yourself! Once you grew powerful enough, you would have become a great calamity for this world!"
"Today, even if we must die, other experts will avenge us! We will be waiting for you on the road to the Yellow Springs!"
An old man with snow-white hair laughed with sorrow, his voice desolate. He stared fixedly at the Lord of Sunset Cloud City, his gaze sharp enough to pierce through him.
"Is that so?"
The Lord of Sunset Cloud City sneered with disdain and said indifferently, "If you think a mere Heavenly Sin Leaderboard can hunt me down and kill me, then I'm afraid you will be disappointed."
After speaking, the Lord of Sunset Cloud City pressed his palm down. The grand formation activated, unleashing boundless killing intent. Countless people cried out in agony as their bodies collectively cracked apart, streams of fresh blood flowing out.
The blood did not fall to the earth but converged, rushing toward the sky and forming a blood-red ocean.
"The Heavenly Sin Leaderboard cannot hunt you down and kill you, but then what about this old man?"
Just as everyone was about to fall into complete despair, an aged voice echoed from the void, reaching the ears of every single person.
Before the voice had even faded…
"Boom!"
A tremendous explosion resounded.
The grand formation shattered, turning into a rain of light that scattered in all directions.
In the distant sky, celestial light surged and divine radiance pierced through the heavens. A man strode over. His steps were firm, his figure imposing and magnificent.
He seemed capable of propping up heaven. He materialized from the void, his black hair like a waterfall, his eyes profound, filled with the endless birth and destruction of stars. He was like a celestial god descending upon the world!
"In the past, this old man always wondered why cities within the Imperial Dynasty were repeatedly annihilated. It was not until the Heavenly Sin Leaderboard appeared that this old man finally understood."
"So it was you all along, Lord of Sunset Cloud City, causing trouble from behind the scenes!"
"It's the Ancestor of the Great Chu Imperial Dynasty!" someone cried out in shock.
