A cold voice rang out, and a man dressed in white, wearing a scholar's headscarf, stepped forward.
The man in white was handsome and refined, not like a cultivator, but more like a scholar.
However, when people saw the man, they couldn't help but cry out in surprise, recognizing his identity. At that moment, a character behind the woman slowly faded.
The people behind the woman saw it. At the critical moment, a character appeared behind her—the character "Yu" (Imperial Command). It was that very character that saved her life.
"One of the Four Ancient Sects, a disciple of the Book Sect." Someone called out.
Only disciples of the Book Sect possess such a refined temperament, and only they can master words, use literature as the Dao, use calligraphy as their skill, and calmly save the woman's life at critical moments.
"Thank you, senior brother, for saving my life."
Only then did the woman realize that the one who had come to her aid was the scholar, and she hurriedly saluted.
The scholar smiled slightly and returned the bow, saying, "Miss, you hold a righteous heart, refuse to yield to tyranny, refuse to follow the crowd, dare to speak your voice for justice, and a woman is no less than a man. I admire you." Seeing
the scholar's praise, the woman immediately felt a bit embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
"Hey, you four ancient sects have always ignored worldly disputes. What do you mean by coming out now? Has he done his role as a turtle and tried to stand out? At that moment, someone sneered.
It was a powerful alien warrior, his voice stirring and shaking the eardrums. His entire body was covered in scales, his blood and energy surging to the heavens, and his pressure was astonishing.
Most terrifying, he was surrounded by chaotic energy, indicating that he was a powerhouse rooted in chaos, with a chance to break through to the Immortal Realm in the future.
Rooting oneself in chaos means that a cultivator has gained the recognition of the Chaos Heavenly Dao. This is somewhat like an admission ticket—only with the admission ticket can one participate in the Immortal Realm assessment.
In the past, people would never have dared to imagine rooting themselves in chaos, because without even chaotic energy, how could they take root in chaos?
Now that the gate of the world has opened and chaos energy pours in, people now have the chance to root themselves in chaos. However, opportunities are not shared equally; only exceptionally gifted geniuses have the chance to establish themselves in the Realm King Realm.
Legend has it that if you take root in a phenomenon at the Realm King Realm, the chance of advancing to immortality is one in a thousand. If you haven't rooted a phenomenon in the Realm King Realm, even if you later do so at the Divine Lord Realm, the chance of advancing to Immortal Realm is less than one in a million.
Although there are now many prodigies in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, those who can root themselves in chaos are still extremely rare. Anyone who can root in chaos is the strongest of the strongest, the elite among elites.
And the scaled-covered expert before him was a powerhouse rooted in chaos. His aura was terrifying, and his tone was even more aggressive—he even uttered insulting words like a coward, clearly showing he didn't care about the four ancient sects.
Faced with the mockery of the scale-covered expert, the scholar's expression remained unchanged, maintaining a calm expression:
"Our Book Sect has always been unconcerned with worldly affairs and has no intention of making enemies with anyone. But ultimately, we are a human force, so we naturally won't stand by and watch righteous people of the human race be killed.
As for standing up for the human race, how could it be called standing out? "
Enough talk, are you here to help Xinghe Sect?" The scaled-covered expert spoke coldly.
"I'm not here to help; I'm just here to watch the commotion. When I was at the Book Sect, I heard Senior Brother Li Chenggang say that in today's world, when it comes to heroes, it is Dragon Chen.
I have great respect for Senior Brother Li Chenggang. Visiting here today, I am eager to see the heroic spirit he spoke of. The scholar said.
"So you're with Long Chen's group. Enough talk, pay with your life!"
The scaled-covered expert shouted coldly, suddenly stepping into the void and charging at the scholar, striking without any taboo.
"Boom!"
The scaled-covered expert sliced through the air with his claws, chaotic energy swirling around him. With every strike, he struck with full force, leaving no room for maneuver.
Countless people were shocked. This foreign powerhouse was truly bold. Although the Four Ancient Sects were indifferent to the world, their strength was unfathomable. This guy wanted to kill as soon as he made a move—wasn't he afraid of angering the Book Sect?
The Book Sect disciple was both shocked and furious. He hadn't expected this scaly-covered expert to strike so casually and directly take his life, which instantly ignited his anger.
"Are you a disciple of the Book Sect? Would you be afraid of me?"
"Buzz!"
The scholar formed a hand seal with one hand, and the character "Shield" appeared in his palm. He suddenly clasped his hands together, and when he separated them again, a shield character appeared in each palm.
When the character "shield" appeared, the scholar's hands each produced a shield of divine light. The shields were small, only about a foot long, with flowing immortal script on them, radiating a sacred radiance.
With a loud explosion, the scaled-covered expert clawed at the shield, shattering it, and his arm went numb from the force of the shield.
"Bang!"
At the very moment the shield shattered, the scholar's other shield suddenly slipped out and slammed hard into the chest of the scaled-covered expert.
"Boom!"
The scaled-covered expert spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and in a sudden move, was severely wounded by the scholar's strike.
"What?"
Someone exclaimed, this Book Sect disciple is just too strong!
However, some experts realized that it wasn't that the Book Sect disciple was particularly strong, but that scaled-covered expert had been careless, thinking he could take down the frail Book Sect disciple with a single move, only to be severely wounded in a single blow.
"The outcome is decided. You've already lost. There's no point in continuing the fight. I'm not here to fight, I'm here to wait for someone." The scholar did not take the opportunity to attack, but spoke calmly.
The scaled-covered expert was struck heavily in the chest by the shield, making stars appear before his eyes and blood spraying wildly. It took him quite a while to recover.
"You're the one who lost! You damned human, go die!"
The scaled-covered expert roared in fury. The phenomenon behind him stretched open, and a Blood Crocodile appeared, its raging blood energy crushing half the sky.
"Buzz!"
His mouth opened wide, and a blood-red divine light shot out, like a flood dragon emerging from the sea, heading straight for the scholar.
"Courting death!"
The scholar was furious. The scaled-covered expert not only showed no mercy, but instead unleashed his life-bound killing move.
"Turn the world upside down,"
the scholar shouted sharply, summoning a scroll of immortal script. The scroll was densely inscribed with immortal script. The scholar pressed his hands on it, causing it to tremble, and countless immortal scripts lit up, forming a light screen like water.
"Buzz"
When the blood-red divine light struck the letter, everyoneA horrifying scene unfolded: the divine light instantly rebounded and flew straight toward the scaled-covered expert.
"Pfft!"
The scaled-covered expert was killed by a single strike from his own strike, turning into a mist of blood.
As for the scholar, after blocking the blow, his face turned as pale as paper. Clearly, he had paid a heavy price for the rebound.
"Damn humans, pay with your life for my son!"
Just as the scholar put away the scroll, a furious roar rang out. A giant hand that covered the sky slammed down fiercely at the scholar. In that instant, heaven and earth condensed, time stopped, and the terrifying pressure rendered him immobile.
It was obvious that an immortal powerhouse had made a move. The father, covered in scales, saw his son killed and had no time to rescue him. In a fit of rage, he launched a deadly attack on the scholar.
"Boom!"
Just when everyone thought the scholar was doomed, a giant hand spread wide, blocking the scholar's path and forcibly catching the sky-covering giant claw.
When they saw who had made the move, countless people were fired up, and their cheers echoed like a tsunami.
