Chapter 202: Lu Changsheng Finally Returns, the Ancient Domain's Heavenly Sect is Shocked! _5
At that moment, an overwhelming Dao Foundation aura emerged.
"Kongling Daoist Monarch, do not go too far!"
"Even if I did slay your disciple, so what?"
"I, this old man, will meet you head-on!"
Hearing this voice, Zhong Yu's expression instantly changed.
"Not good, it's Elder Wen…"
This Elder Wen was the Law Enforcement Hall Elder who accidentally killed Kongling Daoist Monarch's disciple.
Originally, Zhong Yu had warned Elder Wen repeatedly to never step out.
But Kongling Daoist Monarch's repeated provocations at the Heavenly Sect of the Ancient Domain had finally enraged Elder Wen.
"Lu Changsheng, your matter will have to wait. I'll be back shortly."
Zhong Yu knew that the moment Elder Wen stepped forward, this situation would spiral out of control.
Kongling Daoist Monarch was not someone to be trifled with.
If Elder Wen dared appear, then Kongling Daoist Monarch would surely dare to strike!
Zhong Yu could not stand by and watch Elder Wen be killed so easily.
"Hall Master, please go ahead."
Zhong Yu immediately stood up, and with a flash of his figure, rushed out of the Law Enforcement Hall and flew rapidly toward the mountain gates.
Lu Changsheng thought for a moment; after all, this was an important matter for the Heavenly Sect of the Ancient Domain.
Thus, Lu Changsheng also followed closely, flying out of the mountain gates.
At this moment, outside the mountain gates of the Heavenly Sect of the Ancient Domain.
Elder Wen stood suspended midair in the void.
But just as he stepped outside the gates—
A massive mountain came crashing down from above.
A Magical Treasure!
This was an immensely terrifying Magical Treasure.
And it was being wielded by a Daoist Monarch, emanating dreadful power.
Once it descended, Elder Wen would undoubtedly perish!
"Kongling Daoist Monarch…"
Elder Wen immediately spotted Kongling Daoist Monarch.
He seemed momentarily stunned, surprised that Kongling Daoist Monarch would dare to brazenly attack him outside the mountain gates of the Heavenly Sect of the Ancient Domain.
Kongling Daoist Monarch's gaze was frosty: "You abused your power to bully the weak, breaking the rules. Then I shall slay you to honor my slain disciple!"
Kongling Daoist Monarch was one of the pinnacle Foundation Establishment Daoist Monarchs.
Within the entire Purple Sun Immortal Sect, he ranked among the top three.
A pinnacle Foundation Establishment Daoist Monarch of this stature—let alone Elder Wen—even Zhong Yu was no match for him.
This was precisely why Zhong Yu had refrained from directly confronting him.
They truly were no match for Kongling Daoist Monarch.
"Kongling Daoist Monarch, cease this at once!"
At the critical moment, Zhong Yu arrived.
He acted without hesitation, immediately unleashing a Divine Skill.
"Whoosh…"
A violent gust of wind whipped through the air.
Within the storm, yellow sand surged wildly.
This was a Divine Skill—and a Composite Divine Technique at that.
Though not yet at its pinnacle, its power was still daunting.
The Divine Skill directly enveloped the giant mountain Magical Treasure.
The massive mountain froze for a brief moment.
It was in this instant that Zhong Yu managed to shield Elder Wen behind him.
"Kongling Daoist Monarch, enough!"
"This is the mountain gate of the Heavenly Sect of the Ancient Domain—do not overstep your bounds!"
Zhong Yu bellowed in anger.
"Out of bounds?"
"It is your Heavenly Sect of the Ancient Domain that has truly overstepped!"
"But since you are here, Zhong Yu, it's just as well. If you insist on protecting Elder Wen, I'll simply kill the both of you!"
Kongling Daoist Monarch waved his hand.
Suddenly, countless radiant Flying Swords shimmered into existence, hovering in the void.
The Flying Swords converged to form a colossal sword hundreds of feet long, suspended in the air and radiating a terrifying aura.
Witnessing this scene, Zhong Yu's complexion changed dramatically.
Kongling Daoist Monarch—he was truly unrestrained.
He really intended to kill!
Kongling Daoist Monarch wasn't even afraid of the Divine Power Ancestor of the Heavenly Sect of the Ancient Domain intervening.
That was entirely out of the question.
This was no longer within the sect's mountain gates; it was outside.
As a Foundation Establishment Daoist Monarch on equal footing with the Dao Foundation level, he had not violated the rules.
Though furious, Kongling Daoist Monarch had not lost his wits.
He had intentionally taunted them at the mountain gates but refrained from stepping inside—
All in anticipation of Zhong Yu and Elder Wen stepping out.
"Divine Skill: Sky-Pillar!"
Without a moment's hesitation, Zhong Yu unleashed his most potent Divine Skill.
Elder Wen did the same, simultaneously releasing a Divine Skill.
Yet, Kongling Daoist Monarch's gaze remained as icy as ever.
"Heavenly Sword, Slash!"
In an instant, the massive Heavenly Sword descended directly toward Zhong Yu and Elder Wen.
This strike was almost unstoppable.
It instantly severed the Divine Skills of both Foundation Establishment Daoist Monarchs.
Even Zhong Yu couldn't stand against it.
If this strike landed, Zhong Yu and Elder Wen would surely perish!
A pinnacle Daoist Monarch's fury was truly an unparalleled, unstoppable force!
At that moment, a figure appeared, walking slowly through the void.
What seemed like a slow approach actually brought him directly before the colossal sword in an instant.
Through his Perception Domain, Lu Changsheng naturally understood everything that was happening here.
Elder Wen's fate didn't matter to Lu Changsheng—he didn't know him.
But Zhong Yu had shown Lu Changsheng kindness in the past and had been protective of him during his time in the Divine Storage Realm.
How could Lu Changsheng stand idly by and watch Zhong Yu fall into danger?
"Freeze!"
With a soft utterance from Lu Changsheng—
Everything fell still.
The colossal sword in the sky.
The massive mountain peak.
Everything seemed to completely stop moving.
"This…"
Many were stunned into silence.
They gazed upward at the figure in the void.
They could see him clearly now.
The figure floating in the air had directly "imprisoned" both the colossal sword and mountain peak using only the power of his brain region.
And those were Kongling Daoist Monarch's Magical Treasures!
"Who are you?"
Kongling Daoist Monarch was startled.
His Magical Treasures had been immobilized.
Could the Heavenly Sect of the Ancient Domain really possess such a formidable Dao Foundation cultivator?
But he didn't seem to recognize him at all.
Lu Changsheng glanced passively at Kongling Daoist Monarch and spoke indifferently: "Kongling Daoist Monarch, the cause and effect of this matter is clear to all."
"Since you speak of rules, then let us abide by them."
"I will take on this matter!"
Lu Changsheng stood with hands clasped behind his back.
He knew that reason held no sway at a time like this.
Kongling Daoist Monarch's disciple was dead—there was no bringing him back to life.
Or were they to truly let Kongling Daoist Monarch kill Elder Wen?
That was simply impossible!
The only course of action left was to follow the rules of the Ancient Domain.
Lu Changsheng was taking responsibility for the matter.
"You?"
Kongling Daoist Monarch sneered, "And who are you to involve yourself in this matter?"
Lu Changsheng stepped forward slowly, until he was by Zhong Yu's side, and spoke each word deliberately: "Lu Changsheng of the Heavenly Sect of the Ancient Domain!"
"As a Dao Foundation cultivator of the Heavenly Sect of the Ancient Domain, is it not my place to take up this matter?"
Hearing the name "Lu Changsheng," Kongling Daoist Monarch's gaze immediately sharpened.
In his eyes, a flicker of shock—and even a faint trace of fear—appeared!
