As Zhou Tong spoke, the surrounding disciples of the Shimo Sect found it strange.
Why had Zhou Tong suddenly come to find Saint Son Jiang?
To spar with him?
The disciples of the Shimo Sect found it unbelievable.
Zhou Tong had even defeated their Divine Son, and now he was coming to spar with Jiang Li?
Wasn't this clearly bullying?
Although Saint Son Jiang Li's talent and strength were astonishing, he was still a level below Ye Wushang.
Now, to spar with Saint Son Jiang Li was simply going too far.
"I am truly here with sincerity for a spar this time. I have even brought an Elder of the Heavenly Palace from our Chaos Holy Land to bear witness. Rest assured, it will be a friendly bout, and I will not use the Overlord Fist or the Nine Divine Forms!"
"As long as Jiang Li can withstand three moves from me, I will apologize to your Shimo Sect and from now on, I will avoid all Shimo Sect members I encounter…"
Zhou Tong continued to speak calmly, as if discussing something trivial.
The white-robed elder behind Zhou Tong also stepped forward.
This white-robed elder possessed an extremely formidable aura.
"That's right, I am an Elder of the Heavenly Palace from the Chaos Holy Land. With me as witness, Zhou Tong will not use the Overlord Fist or the Nine Divine Forms. As long as Jiang Li can last three moves under Zhou Tong, we of the Chaos Holy Land will admit defeat!" the white-robed elder added.
Upon hearing their words, the surrounding Shimo Sect disciples' expressions changed slightly.
An Elder of the Heavenly Palace from the Chaos Holy Land was considered a very powerful elder within the Chaos Holy Land, possessing great strength and high status.
Moreover, there were also Elders of the Earth Palace, the Mysterious Palace, and the Yellow Palace, all of whom were significantly inferior to the Elders of the Heavenly Palace.
An Elder of the Heavenly Palace could already represent the Chaos Holy Land in making some major decisions.
To think that this old man was an Elder of the Heavenly Palace of the Chaos Holy Land.
Since the Elder of the Heavenly Palace had said so, Zhou Tong would likely not go back on his word.
"Three moves, only three moves…"
"Perhaps we should let Saint Son Jiang give it a try…"
"Yes, I think it's fine. This Zhou Tong is only formidable with the Overlord Fist and the Nine Divine Forms. If he can't use them, he's no threat at all…"
"Saint Son Jiang Li had previously defeated Saint Son Lin Zhang of Cang Mo Peak with ease. Dealing with a Zhou Tong who doesn't use the Overlord Fist and the Nine Divine Forms should be no problem…"
"This is a great opportunity for us to regain our honor, and the conditions were proposed by himself…"
…
The surrounding Shimo Sect disciples began to discuss amongst themselves, appearing quite eager.
After all, this Zhou Tong had previously defeated their Divine Son.
Now that there was an opportunity to regain their honor, they were all very excited.
Zhou Tong looked at the discussing disciples with a blank expression, filled with disdain.
Three moves? I could cripple that guy in a single move.
These people still expect that trash to be able to fight me for three moves. How ridiculous.
The beautiful middle-aged woman behind Zhou Tong's eyes flashed with a fierce light, her body trembling slightly. The scene of her son's death flashed through her mind.
She had sacrificed so much…
This time, that brat Jiang Li must, absolutely must, be crippled.
…
On the outskirts of Luoxing Sea Island.
A peerlessly handsome young man and a delicate and charming woman were both flying towards Luoxing Sea Island.
"Senior Sister Xia, do you feel that this Eastern Star Sea Region seems a bit off!" Jiang Li said to Xia Qingying beside him.
Jiang Li's Divine Sense Master realm had already reached the Saint King level, making his perception of his surroundings extremely sensitive.
He could clearly feel that the entire Eastern Star Sea Region seemed to be somewhat different from before he left.
Although he didn't perceive any danger, the surrounding auras gave Jiang Li a faint sense of emptiness and detachment.
It felt completely different from before.
Xia Qingying frowned slightly, her delicate eyebrows seeming to ponder something.
"Junior Brother Jiang Li, are you perhaps mistaken? I don't feel anything out of the ordinary!" Xia Qingying replied.
"Perhaps it's just my imagination!" Jiang Li suppressed his thoughts and continued.
Perhaps he had been wandering outside for too long.
"Junior Brother Jiang Li, you cannot return to Luoxing Sea Island now!" Just as Jiang Li and Xia Qingying were slowly flying towards Luoxing Sea Island, a hurried voice rang out.
Jiang Li and Xia Qingying looked towards the source of the sound.
A charming woman in a fiery red, flowing dress was flying towards them.
The woman's face showed a hint of worry, making her look quite melancholic.
"Junior Sister Xue… what happened?" Xia Qingying asked upon seeing the woman.
It turned out that this charming woman was none other than Xue Yufei.
Xue Yufei's complexion was rosy, and there was a slight sheen of sweat on her forehead. Her chest rose and fell slightly, indicating she was quite agitated.
Jiang Li also looked at the charming woman before him with a puzzled expression.
Xue Yufei took a deep breath, "Junior Brother Jiang Li, you cannot go back. Zhou Tong, the Hegemon Body of the Chaos Holy Land, is currently at Luoxing Sea Island…"
…
Tianxing Sea.
The central region of the Eastern Star Sea.
There was a massive island here, surrounded by many powerful formations.
This island was called I am That Tianjing Sea Island.
Any creature that attempted to approach this island was easily annihilated by the powerful formations outside.
Even Saint King level or Great Saint level sea monsters, if caught by the formations, would be easily erased.
Outside the formations, many guards patrolled meticulously, guarding against any potential dangers or accidents.
Inside the island.
Spiritual energy permeated everywhere, with abundant spiritual plants and fragrant flowers and trees.
From the depths of the island, loud shouts and collisions could often be heard, as if something was being extracted.
"Elder Song, the people of the Shimo Sect plan to cooperate with the Ziwei Holy Land and the Taiqing Holy Land. Do you have any thoughts on this?" a middle-aged man in a luxurious brocade robe asked from the depths of the island.
Beside the middle-aged man stood a cultivator with a commanding aura.
This cultivator wore a white Taoist robe that shimmered with an unusual light.
"Greetings, Elder Song!"
"Greetings, Elder Li!"
…
The two slowly walked towards the depths of the island. Many cultivators along the way respectfully saluted them.
It turned out that these two were Elders from the Chaos Holy Land and the Sky Phoenix Clan, Song Bowen and Li Guangyao.
"It's nothing. Even if the three factions join forces, with our strong alliance, they will be nothing but paper tigers!" Song Bowen said indifferently, his tone extremely condescending.
In the depths of the island, many cultivators were relentlessly mining spirit stones.
