Chapter 2780
Many became confident after Pinnacle God Monarch stepped up to oppose Li Qiye . Plus, Zhang Cangsheng and Venerable Xian were there too . What was there to be afraid of?
“Only those who are accepted by everyone in Immortal Demon are qualified to sit on that throne . ” One ancestor joined in .
He chose his words well to express an impartial stance, not clearly standing on Eight Trigrams’ side nor provoking Longevity Hall .
In the case of a full conference, Li Qiye wouldn’t be able to sit on it anyway .
“True . ” Many big shots agreed: “It has to be accepted by everyone in Immortal Demon . We can support this . ”
Everyone clearly thought that he wasn’t qualified to sit there . It was reserved for wise sages like Everlasting Jiang . Li Qiye was young and didn’t accomplish anything yet .
“What a joke about wanting to sit up there, you’re nothing more than a murderer of the innocent and should be persecuted by all in order to maintain justice in the system . Everyone is responsible for taking down evil . ” Zhang Cangsheng was more aggressive with his words .
“Oh? Is that so?” Li Qiye smiled: “That’s alright, I have no plans on becoming a virtuous person and don’t need any other reason to sit up there besides wanting to . ”
He continued on while glancing at the two Everlastings: “Come, I don’t care if it’s for revenge or to stop me from reaching that throne . Today will be the last chance for any of you to voice your dissatisfaction . I will start massacring anyone who does it after today . ”
“That’s a bold declaration!” Pinnacle Monarch shouted back: “Do you think you’re invincible and that the countless experts of Immortal Demon will let you do as y-?”
“Precisely so, I can do whatever I want . Not convinced? All come together, I just need one hand to take all of you down . ” Li Qiye interrupted him .
With that, he reached one hand forward and moved the other behind his back while leisurely staring at the crowd: “The truth is always unpleasant to hear but come, just one hand . I don’t care for your intent, whether it be for revenge or just to get rid of me to sleep well, or maybe you didn’t like my declaration earlier . The more the merrier, and only blame your lack of skills when you fall to the ground, humiliating your forefather in the process . ”
He posed there facing the crowd in an arrogant manner as if he alone was invincible .
Everyone didn’t know what to do, feeling both annoyance and helplessness . Annoyance stemmed from his arrogance and blatant contempt for the rest of the world . Helplessness came from the fact that he was indeed very strong .
Few people here could withstand one move from him even if he only used one hand . Perhaps only the Everlastings could do so .
“You said it, not us . ” The monarch shouted in response, unconvinced .
Of course, they wouldn’t accept the claim that he could beat everyone here with one hand . The monarch wanted to use this chance to get rid of this powerful enemy .
“Yep, just one hand against however many armies you can muster . ” Li Qiye leisurely smiled .
The monarch had an unsightly visage . This was his first time being treated in this manner .
“Keep your words . ” Venerable Xian scowled .
“Don’t worry about it, if I can’t win with one hand, it will be my loss and I’ll surrender . ” Li Qiye said .
His opponents including the two Everlastings exchanged glances . They had a complicated look on their face .
No one could handle such arrogance and disdain . Plus, this was a godsend opportunity to kill Li Qiye . Why would they keep waiting?
However, they contemplated about his actual strength and felt dread . Just how strong was the guy to be so confident against them? Nevertheless, they still made up their mind .
“Okay, no take back then . ” Zhang Cangsheng spoke: “If we can’t defeat you right now, Eight Trigrams will leave . All of our previous feuds will be erased . ”
“Same with our Central Sacred Ground . ” Venerable Xian agreed .
Ultimately, they didn’t think they would lose under these conditions . They have never faced someone making this claim before, let alone a junior .
Normally, masters felt trepidation before their presence due to their lifelong conquests . Being looked down upon wasn’t a good feeling .
“Boom!” Runes appeared around Zhang Cangsheng - each one the size of a mountain .
They engulfed the area like multiple tsunamis and made the crowd feel their immensity . Many couldn’t stand up straight .
These runes above him came together to form a supreme grand dao in the form of the eight divinatory trigrams . He suddenly became the ruler of the world that should be worshipped by all .
People finally understood why his full title was “Zhang Cangsheng of Eight Trigrams” after seeing the images above . He gave the feeling of total control - grasping life and death in his palms .
Venerable Xian started channeling his power too . Space trembled with a buzzing noise . Immortal strands of light started oozing from him like the opening of a sacred treasury . His body seemed to have endless resources and treasures .
“We wish to assist you, Seniors . ” Pinnacle God Monarch also roared and released all of his vitality with a bang .
“Rumble!” Bright lights covered the sky . A visual phenomenon took place - numerous divine peaks appeared . Each could be an independent world . This was a sight akin to an often-used description - three thousand worlds .
These peaks soared to the sky and lingered above the city’s air space . This increased the already existing pressure in this area . The peaks poured down chaos energy and the might of a progenitor .
“What is that?” The peaks arranged themselves and looked like gigantic palms . People started gasping for breath, unable to move .
“The power of a progenitor . ” One old ancestor’s expression changed: “Rumor has it that the progenitor has left behind a palm print in Pinnacle Kingdom . This palm print eventually turned into an ultimate technique in the form of these peaks . They protect the kingdom and guarantee prosperity . I can’t believe the monarch is capable of controlling it . No wonder why he’s their strongest ancestor . ”
In the beginning, everyone knew that the monarch was strong, just not on the same level as Li Qiye . Now, after seeing this particular technique, they thought that maybe he could put up a fight .
“He possesses the power of one palm strike from the progenitor . That’s quite hard to beat . ” An Eternal commented with respect .
“Yes, an all-destroying palm . ” Many ancestors nodded: “No wonder why he dared to come here . The guy was prepared . ”
The trio surrounded Li Qiye after finishing their preparation .
