Chapter 1892: Okay, I’m Coming

“Hiss!”

After hearing that, everybody in the valley gasped hard. It had never occurred to them that the voice that sounded helpless and casual would make such a tough declaration after giving in so many times.

Even if all the deities and devils in the world come to beg me to spare you, you will not be saved.

The voice echoed inside the valley like waves each higher than the last. All the Cultivators of the Ancient Sages Sector’s faces were pale, and their souls were shaking violently. They almost vomited their internal organs out.

They were flabbergasted, but Elder Scorching Sun was so exasperated that he was almost stabbing a hole in the sky!

“Ah! Ah! Ah! How dare you!”

The altar below Elder Scorching Sun’s feet fell apart abruptly. Centered at the altar, dozens of interconnected cracks that looked like a spider web appeared on the ground and extended outwardly.

From the cracks, red light resembling magma spurted out, further accentuating the horrendousness of his body. None of the Cultivators of the Ancient Sages Sector were able to look at him directly.

Elder Scorching Sun waved his hands. “Place the array!”

Shua! Shua! Shua! Shua!

The hundreds of disciples of the Red Sun Sect floating above the Cultivators of the Ancient Sages Sector accelerated all of a sudden. The red clouds below their feet expanded almost five times, enshrouding them in a glow and turning them into giants three to four meters tall.

The giants rushed into the air, leaving crimson exhaust flames in midair that looked like the strokes of enormous rune arrays. After all the exhaust flames were connected, hundreds of overwhelming runes had been composed!

The ancient runes from the Saint Fire Dynasty and the even more primeval battlefields occupied the entire sky. They seemed to have awakened the mysterious force sealed between the sky and the earth and established a translucent spiritual shield around the whole of Angry Fire Mountain, covering the Angry Fire Army, the Red Sun Sect, Elder Scorching Sun, and the hundred thousand Cultivators of the Ancient Sages Sector.

It was not just a defensive array. A lot of ancient runes were flashing on the array, with violent auras vaguely spreading out, like dragons and tigers that could lunge out and hurt the enemy anytime.

“Hahaha! This is the first variation of the ‘Rising Sun Array’, the ‘Soaring Flame Blood Transformation Array’!” Elder Scorching Sun’s hair and beard both turned red. He widened his eyes and shrieked, “No-fly zone? You are forbidding me from riding a flying sword in my own turf? You truly don’t know what you are talking about! Come on. My great array is already done. Whatever skills and techniques you have, just bring it on!”

Together with his shrieks, the fiery fiend in the sky went on a rampage, too. The six light balls that were as dazzling as the sun unleashed thousands of electric arcs that turned into six different blades, including one giant axe that could break a mountain, one long spear that pierced through the sky, and one sword that seemed to be chasing the moon. Surrounding the six arms of the giant that looked like dragons, the weapons made the giant look more intimidating than ever!

Huo!

The hearts of the Cultivators in the valley seemed to be on a swing. Hardly had they been distracted by the weird voice in the sky when they were seized by Elder Scorching Sun’s shocking aura again.

Despite all the boasting of the strange voice, awed by the ‘Soaring Flame Blood Transformation Array’ and the magnificent power of the fiery fiend, they still chose to take Elder Scorching Sun’s side firmly.

Chances were that the crazy lunatic in the sky was not Master Spiritual Vulture at all. Even if he was, so what? Could he have established such a magnificent array or released such a daunting image?

Hehe. Elder Scorching Sun’s little finger must have been thicker than Master Spiritual Vulture’s waist!

“The Rising Sun Array has countless changes. The first variation is already so powerful. It is truly the greatest array in the world!”

“The array is indeed powerful, but how can it compare to the invincibility of Elder Scorching Sun’s fiery fiend?”

“Elder’s techniques are unparalleled. Whatever scoundrel they are, as long as they are bold enough to show up, they will be blown to smithereens in the blink of an eye.”

“Take not a musket to kill a butterfly. They are just jesters humiliating themselves here. They do not deserve Elder attacking them personally. It will stain Elder’s honorable image. Come on. Regardless of who you are, if you want to make trouble on the Angry Fire Mountain, you must pass through me!”

“Wait a moment, Fellow Cultivator Gongsun. Everybody in the ‘Phantom Ocean Alliance’ has worshipped Elder Scorching Sun for a long time and decided to disband the ‘Phantom Ocean Alliance’ so that everybody could join Elder’s ‘Red Sun Sect’ and be better at Elder’s service! We didn’t expect that such crazy retards today would dishonor Elder’s name today. Such blasphemy must not be tolerated! Everyone in the ‘Phantom Ocean Alliance’ is simmering with anger! Let me see how impressive the so-called ‘Star Glory Federation’ is!”

“No, no, no. Let me, let me!”

“Come on. Xiahou Ba of the Essence Return Sect is here to defend the name of Elder Scorching Sun. ‘No-fly zone’? I am already in midair. What can you do about me?”

The ‘Soaring Flame Blood Transformation Array’ was covering them all, and the enormous fiery fiend was next to them, offering protection. It was definitely the safest moment for adulation and pledges of loyalty.

Therefore, a lot of Cultivators of the Ancient Sages Sector who intended to distinguish themselves before Elder Scorching Sun soared into the sky. They all activated their own magical equipment, which emanated colorful brilliance, while they rode the wind in demonstration.

Although they were not as organized and impressive as the disciples of the Red Sun Sect, they were certainly much more obstreperous and eye-catching. They were shouting at the top of their voices resolutely, as if they were the most loyal servants.

Seeing that those people were so quick to take the hint, Elder Scorching Sun put on a casual smile and did not stop them, simply allowing them to fly in midair and flatter him.

‘Green Willow’ Fang Chengzhi found it hard to restrain himself. The Green Cloud Sword Sect was rather famous for their sword-riding arts. His own ‘Willow Leaf Sword Art’ entailed a special movement technique, which allowed him to be as elegant and enjoyable as a willow Leaf dancing in the wind when he rode a flying sword.

He was of a mind to show himself off, not entirely to adulate Elder Scorching Sun. Today was the occasion where all the heroes of the world were gathered. If he distinguished himself in the sky and dwarfed the seniors who had been famous for a long time in terms of riding flying swords, would the title of ‘Green Willow’ spread from the Running River State to the entire world?

However, the moment his feet exerted strength, his thigh was pinched by someone so hard that he almost burst into tears. He could not help but cry out.

Thankfully, everybody was soaked in the zealous atmosphere. With all the rumbling thunder and raging airwaves in the sky, nobody noticed his scream or wretched appearance.

Fang Chengzhi looked at his father, full of confusion.

Leader Fang Shiyi of the Green Cloud Sword Sect was more solemn than ever. He even forgot to resort to the private talk technique but simply lowered his voice to speak to his son. “Don’t move. Wait a while longer, or I will smack you to the ground!”

Fang Chengzhi shrank his neck and clicked his tongue. Then, the voice came from the sky again.

It was rather strange that the soft, gentle, and warm voice was not affected at all no matter how Elder Scorching Sun roared and how many deafening explosions the ‘Rising Sun Array’ raised.

“Fellow Cultivator Scorching Sun, let’s be honest here. Your seemingly gigantic, three-headed, and six-armed image of fiend is just a sound and visual effect slightly better than a mirage. It is an illusion built because of the reflection, refraction, and diffraction of the rays of light in the air and the clouds. While it can trick Cultivators who are unaware of the truth, it does not boast any power at all, and it can be affected very easily.

“I am of a mind to draw a tortoise on each of the three heads of your fiery fiend, but considering that a lot of news reporters are livestreaming here, and all the videos may become historical files one day, such a childish act is not very appropriate.”

The voice in the cloud seemed to be even yawning before it continued.

“Also, your so-called ‘Soaring Flame Blood Transformation Array’ sounds impressive enough, but it is nothing more than an enormous spiritual shield that has been jumbled up. If it was functioning at full efficiency, it would certainly be very powerful. However, both you and the ‘Saint Fire Dynasty’ do not have the first understanding about the primeval relics and are still in the phase of ‘monkeys playing with pistols’. You cannot bring out one percent of the array’s power at all.

“You have even spent a lot of time and effort wasting the one percent of the power on useless sound and visual effects. Sometimes, it really confuses me. You are not hotblooded adolescents anymore. Why do you attach so much importance to the impressiveness instead of actual performance?

“Forget it. It’s too late for a lecture right now. Our fleet is already in position. All the cannons and artilleries have locked onto all the flying objects in the sky of the ‘no-fly zone’. I will give you three seconds to exit the no-fly zone, or there will be dire consequences.

“Also, our magical equipment is different from yours. You cannot begin to imagine how powerful it is. So, please activate your spiritual shields to the maximum, fellow Cultivators on the ground. If you have any defensive magical equipment, hurry to activate it and cover your heads. There’s also the life-saving magical equipment that has been passed on in your family for hundreds of years and can only be used once. Stop hesitating. Now is the time to bring them out and cover yourselves in them.

“As for the members of the ‘Angry Fire Army’ and the ‘Red Sun Sect’, lay down your weapons, kneel on the ground, and raise your hands above your heads. We will try to spare your lives as much as possible. But if you insist on following Elder Scorching Sun in resisting us to the end, I’m afraid that we will have to say sorry—”

“Enough of the cr*p. B*stard, come on!”

Elder Scorching Sun’s eyes were fuming in fury when he interrupted the voice in the sky.

“Elder Scorching Sun is invincible! Elder Scorching Sun will sweep across the world and establish an enterprise that will last forever!” the members of the Angry Fire Army and the Red Sun Sect shouted at the same time.

“We are the loyal servants of Elder Scorching Sun. Whoever you are and whatever you are, come at us first if you want to touch the Angry Fire Mountain!” hundreds of Cultivators of other sects chanted in the sky with their feigned sense of justice.

“Come on! Come on! Come on!” The hundred thousand Cultivators in the entire valley were flapping the flags and laughing at the same time.

There was a brief silence in the clouds, which was broken by a casual voice.

“Okay, I’m coming.”
