The murderous intent surged wildly in his eyes. Qiu Taoguang harbored resentnt in his heart and didn't hesitate any longer. A dense Evil Qi instantly roiled around him, and with a casual gesture, he tore open the Void in front of him and stepped into the space rift!
"I shall go kill Zong Yue. As for those who escaped first at the start of the battle, leave them to you!"
As his cold voice echoed, his figure vanished into the rift, leaving behind only the palpable pressure of a formidable aura soaring towards the sky, swiftly pursuing the direction Zong Yue fled.
anwhile, at the southeastern corner of the Ancient Demon Sect Relics, within the Demon Lord's tomb's Inheritance Hall.
"Boom!"
Within the Inheritance Hall, which had been silent for days, a majestic aura once again burst forth, stirring the clouds and winds!
In the deep passage, a tall figure slowly rose, and as he moved, the three Daos hovering above his head instantly emitted a dense pressure, whistling down straight into his body.
In the next instant, the overwhelming pressure unique to the Vientiane Realm surged like a tide, sweeping through the surroundings, causing the Void to tremble and the Heaven and Earth Primordial Power to boil.
Standing still for a while, sensing the various divine changes occurring within him after advancing into the Vientiane Realm, Lu Chong slowly opened his eyes, and from deep within them, two beams of almost tangible golden light burst forth, making the chilly air within the hall hiss and crackle.
"Whew... So this is the power of the Vientiane Realm."
Exhaling a long breath of impure air, Lu Chong lowered his gaze, looking at his slowly outstretched palm.
In his palm, three imnsely solid strands of the Power of Great Dao suddenly rose, and with their fluctuation, they seed to emit an incredibly astonishing power wave, causing a myriad of colors to flicker in his eyes, and he couldn't help but marvel.
"After years of arduous cultivation, I've finally taken this step successfully. But, I wonder how the others are faring."
Suppressing the excitent in his heart, Lu Chong murmured softly, then turned his gaze towards the other passages ford by the Power of Great Dao within the Inheritance Hall.
Previously, when Zong Yue led people from here to explore deeper into the Demon Sect Relics, Lu Chong was at a critical mont in his cultivation breakthrough, so he sealed his Divine Sense to prevent outside disturbances that might lead to failure. Therefore, he remained unaware of this matter.
"Hmm? Zong Yue is not here? It seems he must have successfully broken through to the Vientiane Realm, after all, he was a step ahead of ."
Scanning the surroundings but not finding the expected figure of Zong Yue, Lu Chong first paused in slight surprise, then a complex expression appeared on his face and he shook his head helplessly.
No matter how hard he hurried, he could only barely keep up with Zong Yue. Yet, if he hadn't chosen to imdiately search for Jiang Shu's whereabouts upon entering the inner circle of the relics, but instead joined Zong Yue to find this Demon Lord's tomb, comprehend the Dao Origin, his breakthrough could have been even faster.
Perhaps he could have engaged in a contest with Zong Yue to see who would be the first to achieve a breakthrough and step into the Vientiane Realm.
However, regarding this, Lu Chong had no regrets.
Though he was no longer the First True Inheritor of True Martial Sect, he was still recognized as the eldest senior brother among the True Disciples of the sect, long accustod to considering every action for the sect.
Previously witnessing Jiang Shu becoming a Daoist Monarch of Vientiane Realm firsthand, experiencing substantial advancent in cultivation and an explosive increase in strength, the talent he displayed surpassed that of Zong Yue entirely. This made Lu Chong imnsely joyful, even more so than his own breakthrough, thrilled beyond comparison.
With an unparalleled prodigy like Jiang Shu, it undeniably laid a solid foundation for the ultimate rise of True Martial Sect in the future.
Reining in his thoughts, Lu Chong's face returned to calmness, and he walked towards the passage exit.
At this point, several True Disciples from the Eight Great Sects stationed here had long noticed the powerful aura emitted during his breakthrough. Seeing him erge from the depths of the passage, their eyes slightly focused as they ca forward to greet him and offer congratulations to this newly promoted Daoist Monarch Dayuan.
Responding to everyone's congratulations with a smile, Lu Chong looked towards his fellow True Martial Sect True Disciple beside him and asked:
"Where did the Zongyue Sect True Disciples go?"
The True Disciple quickly answered, explaining Zong Yue's instructions after his breakthrough and subsequent movents in detail.
Lu Chong patiently listened, occasionally nodding slightly:
"Since Daoist Monarch Qingtian has successfully broken through and advanced to the Vientiane Realm, those Demon Sect and Demon Clan fellows are unlikely to pose any threat to him."
"Let's stay here for now and wait for the other friends who are comprehending the Dao Origin to complete their cultivation, then we'll go together to rendezvous with Daoist Monarch Qingtian."
Upon hearing this, everyone naturally nodded in agreent, and their faces lit up with a barely concealed excitent.
With Lu Chong also successfully stepping into the Vientiane Realm, the situation for the Eight Great Sects' team was promising. As long as Zong Yue, as Daoist Monarch Qingtian, could make further gains and decisively thwart the arrogance of the Demon Sect and Demon Clan, leading them to seize all opportunities within the Ancient Demon Sect Relics, this relic exploration would undoubtedly be a success.
They could enhance their own strength with these opportunities, and there's a significant chance to overco the bottlenecks in their cultivation. Additionally, there would be substantial benefits for the sects they belong to.
However, they didn't yet know that this seemingly assured situation had already undergone trendous changes.
Yet soon, a piece of shocking news reached them.
