I Slay Gods and Demons in the Deceit Night

In the midst of Deceit Night, the atmosphere was stagnated to the extreme.

"The Saint Master has sharp vision, truly not like a young man, more like an experienced old chap."

This man, one of the three Great Venerables of Heavenly Gate, spoke coldly.

"It's not about experience, just some hearsay regarding the Heaven and Earth Net."

Lin Yan said: "This Great Array seals both heaven and earth, yet its range seems to be only six hundred miles! The world is vast and infinite, tonight I did not take the main road, but ventured into the wilderness..."

"Such an array, without prior days of preparation, is difficult to accomplish."

"You need to know my exact itinerary, and also know the inevitable paths I will take."

"Otherwise, the formation is wasted."

"But tonight, I traverse only wild mountains and desolate plains."

"So this shocking Great Array should be capable of movement."

"Even the Holy Alliance was unable to create such a large and movable formation, only the Old God's Magical Objects could."

Lin Yan spoke: "I have merely recently been in Holy Alliance, perusing some ancient records and looking into some old events regarding Shangri Sacred Land."

Years ago, when the Judicial Great Heavenly Monarch descended to the Lower Realm, he slayed the Immortal known as Carrying Mountains and Chasing the Sun.

To prevent that Immortal from escaping, he led twelve hundred followers, carrying a Heaven and Earth Net, to block and seal an area of a hundred thousand miles within the array.

During the reign of the Second Generation Human Emperor, the Human Clan once possessed eighteen sets of Heaven and Earth Net.

For this, the Second Generation Human Emperor had established eighteen camps, each comprising a thousand soldiers and horses, deploying the Heaven and Earth Net.

But the strength of the Human Clan was insufficient to fully maximize such divine objects, and usually could seal merely a few thousand miles at its peak.

Later, with the fall of the Second Generation Human Emperor, no further records remained of the eighteen sets of Heaven and Earth Net.

Whether it was the treasures condensed into the Heaven and Earth Net, or the associated formations within, or even the eighteen camps totaling eighteen thousand elites, currently no document records exist.

"To form this Heaven and Earth Net, are the ten thousand evils within these six hundred miles responsible?"

Lin Yan, holding the Night Illuminating Divine Sword, spoke: "No wonder that once the Heaven and Earth Net appears, the evil energy surges to the sky and wickedness spreads..."

"Even if you have discerned the key, what can you do?"

The Great Venerable took out a whip filled with thunder saying: "Today the one to kill you, is one of the three Great Venerables of Heavenly Gate, ranked on the right side, known as You Heavenly Venerate!"

"Once again it's the Old God's Magical Objects!"

Lin Yan stroked the blade, saying: "Though it is an artifact from the Ancient Era, it lacks Spiritual Wisdom! You, being this era's Divine Blade, a true Divine Spiritual Artifact, can you surely cut through this object?"

The Night Illuminating Divine Sword slightly trembled, the sound of the blade crying sounded incredibly excited, filled with an intense War Intent!

——

Heavenly Destiny City.

The Old Taoist opened his eyes, saying: "This battle has commenced."

He tilted his head towards the Young Venerable and sighed: "This old Taoist's skills are poor and helpless in action, follow the silk pouch left to you by the Alliance Hierarch instead..."

"The movements of those from Upper Heaven are uncertain."

The Young Venerable's gaze slightly condensed, saying: "I'm a bit worried, if they might seize the opportunity to hollow out the Holy Alliance, occupying the nest, using our Holy Alliance to restart their era..."

"The Alliance Hierarch also rose from Upper Heaven."

The Old Taoist slightly shook his head, saying: "The Holy Alliance belongs to the Human Clan's Holy Alliance! The Heavenly Ancestor Realm is indeed part of the Human Clan too! They and the Saint Master are actually no different..."

He paused and sighed: "Young Venerable, when did you begin to view the Holy Alliance as your own possession?"

"Just because we have merits in the Holy Alliance, does it mean the Holy Alliance should be under our influence?"

"Such a notion, what difference is there from those who boast themselves as noblemen and aristocrats?"

Upon this sound, the Old Taoist's gaze slightly tightened, staring at the Young Venerable.

The Young Venerable's face slightly changed, nodded, then immediately said: "I understand."

And shortly after the Young Venerable departed, a sturdy giant walked out, saying: "The Young Venerable is apprentice to the present Master of the Holy Alliance, who is regarded as the Young Master of the Holy Alliance by all."

"Actually, to be frank, his lineage is the direct line of the Holy Alliance, the most rightful successor of the Holy Alliance's great power!"

"Within the Holy Alliance, in terms of distinguished family background and strong heritage, none can compare to the Young Venerable."

"His lineage is indeed the largest force within the Holy Alliance, the true noble aristocrat, the first power!"

"Unfortunately, though remarkable, he lacks the prowess and fortitude to dominate all directions, nor does he have the prestige of the Saint Master."

This Supreme Elder contemplated: "To the Alliance Hierarch, the Young Venerable is his Direct Disciple, entrusted with significant responsibility, naturally plausible! But aren't we trusting him too much?"

"The Old Taoist trusts the current Alliance Hierarch!"

The Old Taoist looked outward and said: "Indeed, if the Young Venerable can rise, becoming the next Alliance Hierarch in the future, so be it! But neither in boldness, scope, nor disposition does he compare to the present Alliance Hierarch!"

"Truly in the Old Taoist's mind, the next Alliance Hierarch should be the Saint Master."

"However, the Saint Master only wishes to be a blade hanging over the Holy Alliance."

"But even if not the Saint Master ascending, the Young Venerable is unsuitable to be the next Alliance Hierarch."

"Yet at least, as long as the Alliance Hierarch still reigns, the Young Venerable will harbor no disloyalty! As long as it's the Alliance Hierarch's order, the Young Venerable will risk his life to accomplish it!"

Thus spoken, the Old Taoist contemplated, saying: "The Supreme Elder from Upper Heaven has departed Heavenly Destiny City, you are now responsible for matters within Heavenly Destiny City... The Young Venerable's people all come from various Holy Alliance divisions, can't guarantee no other forces have planted spies."

"I'm already prepared."

Zhen Qiong slightly nodded, saying: "However, according to your plans, this time we must catch them in one fell swoop, the issue is... how long can the Saint Master hold on?"
