History's Strongest Senior Brother c1-1474

  The actual killing had been concentrated on the martial practitioners within the Wutong Phoenix Perching Formation and atop the Riding Wind Heavenly Vessel.

  “If the southeast wants to take over Circumference Mountain, I believe that the remaining local martial practitioners will have no way of resisting,” Yan Zhaoge said, “A considerable number of southern experts of the Announcing Peace Mountain Range have been slain by me as well. Vast Spirit Mountain, one of the two greatest sects there, was toppled by me, with their Chief, Daoist East Spring, having been slain by me as well.”

  “I believe that there would also not be much obstruction if the southeast were to try advancing into the Announcing Peace Mountain Range.”

  In order to prevent the southeastern martial practitioners from assisting Yan Zhaoge or making use of this chance to attack, the southern Blazing Heaven Territory had previously heavily locked down the news of Yan Zhaoge’s rampage.

  As a result, this was the first time hearing about it for these martial practitioners of the southeast.

  A Golden Court Mountain martial practitioner beside the Southeastern Swordsmistress said with a dazed look on his face, “Daoist East Spring of the Announcing Peace Mountain Range’s Vast Spirit Mountain-I seem to have heard of him before. He should have been an eighth level Martial Saint?”

  “That’s right,” Yan Zhaoge said as a thick metal whip in the shape of a dragon’s tail appeared in his hand, “This is the defining treasure of Vast Spirit Mountain.”

  At the same time, a sword that flickered with purple light appeared in his other hand, “Apart from them, there was also another person at Vast Spirit Mountain whose skill in the sword was rather outstanding. Still, it seemed like he was not a local of the Announcing Peace Mountain Range.”

  Everyone simultaneously exclaimed in shock, “Two high-grade Sacred Artifacts?!”

  After examining that sword for a moment, the Southeastern Swordsmistress suddenly said, “Purple Sea Sword, the accompanying sword of ‘Purple Tide Swordsman’ Zhao Zhen of the Bright Connection Sea of the southern Blazing Heaven Territory.”

  She paused for a moment before adding, “Also an eighth level Martial Saint.”

  She gazed at Yan Zhaoge.

  On hearing Yan Zhaoge’s words, she had already understood.

  Yan Zhaoge had been able to set up the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation at Circumference Mountain with the help of the water vein of the Dynasty River present in the vicinity.

  Yet, there was no great river like the Dynasty River at the Announcing Peace Mountain Range!

  If Yan Zhaoge had repelled Yuan Xiancheng and slain Daoist East Spring and Zhao Zhen there, even having repelled Zhang Shuren of the ninth level of the Martial Saint realm as well, this must all have been done based on his own strength!

  Even if he had used the power of high-grade Sacred Artifacts like the Extreme Yang Seal or even an Immortal Artifact, there was a single, indisputable fact therein.

  Yan Zhaoge was currently just a late Seeing Divinity Martial Saint.

  People said that a three-year-old kid wielding a sabre would hurt himself before he hurt others.

  However powerful treasures were, if their wielders were too weak, their strength could not be manifested.

  Yan Zhaoge had once pursued and slain Shen Lingzi of the eighth level of the Martial Saint realm in the Royal Reed Sea.

  This matter was known by the Southeastern Swordsmistress and all the other experts of the southeast present.

  Ever since then, they had known how extraordinary this youth was.

  Still, one versus one and one versus many were completely different things altogether.

  With his own strength, facing their combined onslaught, he had still defeated a flock of mid Immortal Bridge Martial Saints.

  Borrowing the power of the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation, he had slain three late Immortal Bridge Martial Saints, Qing Shuzi included.

  Such achievements in battle truly left one speechless and gaping.

  A living legend-there was no other way to describe him!

  Someone could not stop himself from murmuring out loud, “A fallen deity descended into the mortal realm…”

  History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 997: Fame shaking the world

  HSSB997: Fame shaking the world

  A fallen deity referred to a deity who had been banished from amongst the Immortals of heaven, thereon roaming within the human realm.

  Thereafter, those most powerful figures of Daoism had been likened to these fallen deities, past Immortals.

  Whether it was before or after the Great Calamity, this was the highest form of praise towards a genius of Daoism who had yet to push open the door to Immortality!

  That Golden Court Mountain martial practitioner had only just muttered this aloud, overcome by emotion and unable to stop himself from doing so.

  As soon as he had said this, he felt that he might have overstated things a bit.

  As he was feeling slightly vexed, he actually saw everyone beside him all unconsciously nodding in agreement now.

  Regaining their wits, they all exchanged looks as they felt rather overwhelmed, yet soon composed themselves again.

  If even this youth before them did not deserve the name of fallen deity with his strength and talent, there was probably no one at all who did.

  The Southeastern Swordsmistress was silent for a time before she too slowly nodded, “The name of Fallen Deity-Young Master Yan is truly deserving of it.

  “Swordsmistress overpraises me, you overpraise me, everyone,” Yan Zhaoge smiled, “As for what we should do from here on out, we still need to plan things out.”

  The Southeastern Swordsmistress shook her head, sighing, “Let us first not talk about what to do with the Announcing Peace Mountain Range. Here at Circumference Mountain, for every day that the Southern Exalt does not return, Wutong Slope will not be able to continue reigning over here.”

  The Dynasty River was here and would not change its course. It would still continue passing through the Circumference Mountain Range.

  With a water vein of the Dynasty River here, Yan Zhaoge would not even have to be stationed here frequently for Wutong Slope to lose its control over this area.

  For every day that the Southern Exalt Zhuang Shen did not return, it would be pointless even if they tried to regain their lost territory here.

  If Yan Zhaoge happened to be in a good or bad mood and came here one day, it would immediately be another drowning of the enemy troops.

  After today’s battle, the border over at the eastern region of the southern Blazing Heaven Territory already no longer belonged to Wutong Slope.

  Wutong Slope would feel even more terrible due to the fact that things were still not over with this.

  The source of the Dynasty River was not at Circumference Mountain as it was instead in the central Jun Heaven Territory far away.

  Starting from the central Jun Heaven Territory, the Dynasty River flowed through many districts of the central and southern Territories.

  Circumference Mountain was only one of these places.

  It flowed through many places to its north and south.

  Although these places were connected to Circumference Mountain, there was a heavenly gulf that separated them from the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory.

  Still, they were actually intrinsically the same as Circumference Mountain as they all faced the threat of Yan Zhaoge!

  Due to the presence of the Dynasty River, the entire eastern region of the southern Blazing Heaven Territory and a long stretch of river which flowed southward was something which Wutong Slope would henceforth be no longer able to keep a proper hold of!

  Yan Zhaoge would definitely not be able to wrest control of all these places based on just his own power alone.

  With his current cultivation base, it would be impossible for him to borrow the segments of the Dynasty River running through the whole of the southern Blazing Heaven Territory, transformi
ng them into nine bends of the yellow river.

  However, he merely needed to casually take a trip somewhere to cause instability in the lives of the martial practitioners of the south who lived there…

  Away from environments like that of Circumference Mountain, it would be difficult to say how much strength Yan Zhaoge possessed.

  Here, however, the lives of that trio were already sufficient to prove Yan Zhaoge’s abilities.

  It could even be predicted that all other places with similar large scale rivers in the World beyond Worlds would not have it peaceful from here on out.

  This was a person whom they had to be vigilant against at all times, though even vigilance might not be enough.

  “This place was basically secured by you. It will naturally be left for you and Broad Creed Mountain to deal with,” The Southeastern Swordsmistress said very straightforwardly.

  There was certainly no need to relentlessly slaughter all the martial practitioners of the south here.

  Facing such a massive threat, with Wutong Slope unable to provide any assistance, the local martial practitioners would naturally choose to pledge their loyalty to those who truly controlled this place.

  As for whether people would move over from the southeast, that was a different matter altogether.

  “This Yan may not be able to remain at a single place for long periods of time. Also, my Broad Creed Mountain has only just stabilised its footing in the World beyond Worlds not long ago,” Yan Zhaoge smiled, “There are many things that Swordsmistress and various seniors of Golden Court Mountain will have to decide on hereafter.”

  Whatever the case, whatever they decided on, it would be impossible for them to overlook him and Broad Creed Mountain.

  When he felt that the time was right or there was such a need to, they would be able to take over Circumference Mountain at any time.

  At the present time, the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory could use Circumference Mountain as a springboard, advancing deeper into the south into the Announcing Peace Mountain Range and other areas.

  Looking at Yan Zhaoge, the Southeastern Swordsmistress slowly nodded, “With the foundation that you established, what is to come hereafter will be much easier.”

  Zhang Shuren, Peng He and Yuan Xiancheng had all perished, Wutong Slope hence suffering a huge blow to their vitality!

  With the Southern Exalt Zhuang Shen absent now, this crisis was to Wutong Slope like the very sky had collapsed.

  The martial practitioners of the southeast would definitely be able to suppress the south and give them a good beating after this.

  Yan Zhaoge alone had caused the originally evenly matched foes to lose their original equilibrium.

  “Since that is so, this Yan will first be returning to the southeast,” Yan Zhaoge smiled, cupping his hands towards them, “It has already been a long time since I was last home.”

  The Swordsmistress and everyone else all smiled.

  Hadn’t Yan Zhaoge’s main purpose in all this been to return to Broad Creed Mountain in the first place?

  It was just that whether intentionally or not, his return journey this time had been much too out of this world, having caused the reign of the southern Blazing Heaven Territory to crumble vastly all at once!

  After taking his leave of the Southeastern Swordsmistress and the others, Yan Zhaoge returned to the Royal Reed Sea of the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory.

  From now on, his name of Fallen Deity would be widespread.

  The first person to mention this name was a direct lineage descendant of the Southeastern Exalt’s Golden Court Mountain.

  After it was personally said by the Southeastern Swordsmistress, a longtime Elder of Golden Court Mountain, it quickly spread into the surroundings all around.

  It was not just in the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory as it was spoken of throughout the entirety of the World beyond Worlds.

  The southern Blazing Heaven Territory that bordered the southeast which had been the backdrop of this long journey of Yan Zhaoge’s reacted the most intensely to this.

  A Seeing Divinity Martial Saint directly became public enemy number one of the south.

  However, as Yan Zhaoge’s name of Fallen Deity spread, however much these martial practitioners of the south ground their teeth, a considerable many of them were unable to say anything in response.

  While the Southern Exalt Zhuang Shen was absent, the southern Blazing Heaven Territory was actually still full of experts.

  Yet, a youth of the Seeing Divinity Martial Saint realm had rampaged through the south, traversing and battling over an endless distance as he had killed his way straight back to the southeast, totally unstoppable by all!

  In the battle of Vast Spirit Mountain, battling one against three, he had slain the Chief of Vast Spirit Mountain, ‘Crouching Dragon Old Man’ Daoist East Spring, slain the ‘Purple Sea Swordsman’ Zhao Zhen of the Bright Connection Sea, beat the number one descendant of Wutong Slope, ‘Phoenix Pupils’ Zhuang Chaohui, into two nirvanic rebirths.

  After repelling ‘Treasured Branch Suppressing Peak’ Zhang Shuren, a late Immortal Bridge Martial Saint and longtime Elder of Wutong Slope, he had ultimately trampled over the entire Vast Spirit Mountain.

  At that time, there had been over a hundred martial practitioners of the south atop Vast Spirit Mountain, and none of them had dared to face him, all having been scared into fleeing away.

  Qing Shuzi, the head disciple of the Heaven Emperor, as well as the longtime Elders of Wutong slope, ‘Blazing King’ Peng He and ‘Treasured Branch Suppressing Peak’ Zhang Shuren, had congregated at Circumference Mountain, the three late Immortal Bridge Martial Saints surrounding and attacking Yan Zhaoge.

  Besides them, there had also been Yuan Xiancheng and Daoist Leading Mist of the mid Immortal Bridge stage and numerous martial practitioners of Wutong Slope who had participated in the capture attempt.

  In the end, however, the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation that existed only in legend to those of the World beyond Worlds had reappeared in this world.

  With the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation, Yan Zhaoge had forever buried the three mighty late Immortal Bridge Martial Saints as led by Qing Shuzi at Circumference Mountain!

  So many experts of the World beyond Worlds perishing in a single conflict had been extremely rare in the World beyond Worlds in recent years.

  This time, however, all of them had died to a single Seeing Divinity Martial Saint.

  The two battles at Vast Spirit Mountain and Circumference Mountain thus shocked the entire World beyond Worlds.

  HSSB998: From Solar Luminary Young Master to Fallen Deity

  Central Jun Heaven Territory, Kunlun Mountain, Ingenious Flying Peak.

  Golden light flickered within a cave manor atop Red Lotus Cliff.

  On the ground was a massive Eight Trigrams diagram that was circulating unceasingly with a Taiji diagram located at its centre.

  A girl was seated in the meditative position atop the Taiji diagram. She wore red clothes and a white gown with a silver fox shawl across her shoulders, being shockingly beautiful as it dazzled one’s eyes.

  This was none other than the daughter of the Brocade Emperor Fu Yunchi, the ‘Grand Red Lotus’ Fu Ting.

  She sat quietly within the Taiji diagram and the Eight Trigrams formation, while there was a middle-aged man who stood outside the Eight Trigrams formation.

  “The words personally said by Golden Court Mountain’s Zhang Yunying should not be wrong,” That middle-aged man shook his head slightly, seemingly feeling disbelief whilst also admiration, “Zhang Yunying’s temperament is such that she would not exaggerate things.”

  Zhang Yunying was the actual name of the Southeastern Swordsmistress.

  This was still known by few within the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory as everyone was already used to just calling her Swordsmistress.

br />   Fu Ting smiled upon hearing this, “If it is Young Master Yan, Yan Zhaoge, I believe that he possesses such capabilities. I was not being humble when I previously told you and the other senior apprentice-uncles that Young Master Yan’s talent and strength surpass mine.”

  That middle-aged man sighed, “That may be true, but it is still unexpected that even Qing Shuzi was killed by him.”

  “If we were not informed by Young Master Yan and Senior Zhang, even we would not have expected that Qing Shuzi had already mastered the Heaven Earth Within Sleeve before attaining the Human Exalt stage,” Fu Ting said, “People always say that Qing Shuzi might surpass the Heaven Emperor before him, and this appears to have been true indeed.”

  The middle-aged man slowly shook his head, “This might not really be the case. The Heaven Emperor too is someone who conceals himself deeply.”

  “While it is widely thought that he only mastered the Heaven Earth Within Sleeve after attaining the Human Exalt stage, there is probably only he himself who knows the veracity of this for sure.”

  “Instead, we and the rest only saw him revealing that he had learnt the Heaven Earth Within Sleeve when he was already a Human Exalt. Who can know when exactly he mastered it, however?”

  Hearing this, Fu Ting nodded emphatically, “You speak rightly, senior apprentice-uncle. This time, if Qing Shuzi had not been forced to the brink of death by Young Master Yan, no one could know that he had actually already successfully learnt the Heaven Earth Within Sleeve.”

  It was just fine however high one estimated the Heaven Emperor who was already an Immortal now.

  As the daughter of the Brocade Emperor, Fu Ting deeply understood just how powerful Emperors, True Immortals, were.

  “To think that many were unconvinced when people of the southeast once hailed that Young Master Yan as the ‘Solar Luminary Young Master’,” That middle-aged man clicked his tongue in praise, “Now, however, there are few who dare to doubt the title of ‘Fallen Deity’ he now has.”

  While Yan Zhaoge’s fame had previously been widespread, those outside of the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory had mostly not truly paid this much attention.
