History's Strongest Senior Brother c1-1474

by 八月飞鹰, Ba Yue Fei Ying, August Eagle

  “How have things become like this?”

  This was the question within all their minds.

  Hadn’t their Sacred Sun Clan established contact with the legendary World beyond Worlds which was an existence like the Heavenly Court of the Divine Realm?

  With such an advantage, wasn’t their Sacred Sun Clan equivalent to having been chosen by Heaven as it was destined to become the overlord of the Eight Extremities World?

  Hadn’t incomparable experts of the legendary World beyond Worlds descended into this Eight Extremities World, resembling descended divinities as they had come to assist their Sacred Sun Clan?

  Wasn’t it planned that they would directly extinguish Broad Creed Mountain’s lineage whilst also taking care of Yan Di, Song Wuliang and the others in the Seal of the East Sea and welcoming back their old Chief Huang Guanglie?

  Weren’t they going to intimidate all the other clans with that, thereby ascending the peak of the Eight Extremities World for good and ruling the four seas?

  …This rhythm wasn’t right!

  The Sacred Sun Clan martial practitioners all had dazed looks on their faces now.

  With every step that Yan Zhaoge took, the Sacred Sun Clan martial practitioners who emerged in opposition along the way were all casually slain by him.

  The pillar of spiritual light at the peak of the mountain that seemed to break through the nine heavens as it shot straight up into the horizon seemed to shake slightly at this moment.

  Yan Zhaoge waved his hand, the Myriad Dragon Palace appearing and cutting off that pillar of light.

  While the Myriad Dragon Palace was currently in a weakened state, streams of light emanated from it, interfering with the spiritual light and preventing it from continuing.

  When Yan Zhaoge arrived at the place from which the spiritual light originated, he saw light piercing through the roof of the great hall, penetrating through all materials as it continued rising upwards.

  As the great hall broke apart, a pale-faced youth could be seen sitting within. It was precisely the son of Huang Xu and the grandson of Huang Guanglie, the World Illuminating Young Master Huang Jie.

  Huang Jie appeared extremely weak as his face seemed completely devoid of blood. However, the gaze with which he looked at Yan Zhaoge was exceptionally bright.

  Looking at Huang Jie, Yan Zhaoge shook his head slowly, “When Huang Guanglie took out a golden lamp during the formation of the Seal of the East Sea and connected to the World beyond Worlds, I knew then that there was someone of your Sacred Sun Clan who had the unique situation of being able to produce that golden lamp that connected to the World beyond Worlds.”

  “Those of the Radiant Light Sect having been able to accurately descend into the Eight Extremities World, especially that person at the fourth level of the Martial Saint realm in his having been able to descend and remain here, there must have been someone arranging for it over on this side.”

  “Their target was the Extreme Yang Seal, and maybe also the Extreme Yin Crown, which they had to obtain before quickly returning to the World beyond Worlds with. Thus, this passageway would have to be sustained for some time.”

  “At the very least, by their original plans, before having gone to the East Sea and achieved something substantive, this passageway would still have to be sustained.”

  While speaking casually, Yan Zhaoge came before Huang Jie, “Still, I had not thought earlier than the one of the Sacred Sun Clan bearing this responsibility was you.”

  Raising his head and looking at the Myriad Dragon Palace which concealed the sky overhead, Huang Jie sighed, “I had also not previously thought that all of these would actually be wrecked by you.”

  He looked straight at Yan Zhaoge, “You are very strong, extraordinarily strong to a point that exceeds comprehension. This I have always known.”

  “Still, I am still unable to understand. How were you able to deal with the three Elders and two guest Elders of the Radiant Light Sect?”

  “Elders Yang and Jin aside, the other three…”

  Huang Jie’s brows were knit tightly, “I had originally thought that the only way things might go wrong was your father having ascended to the second level of the Martial Saint realm upon leaving the Seal of the East Sea. However, the possibility of that is small indeed. Meanwhile, while you have truly given us too many surprises and I believe you will definitely pose a huge threat in the future, your strength logically shouldn’t have skyrocketed to such an extent this time.”

  “That treasure in the Earth Domain that suppressed the crevice to the Nine Underworlds-you should logically be unable to wield it. Yet, even if you could, could you have dealt with those three Elders at the same time?”

  Yan Zhaoge calmly looked downwards at Huang Jie, “You can’t understand it?”

  Huang Jie shook his head, “I really can’t.”

  Yan Zhaoge nodded, “When you reach the underworld, think slowly and properly about it with your father. Your grandfather will also be going down to accompany the two of you very soon.”

  Huang Jie raised his head, meeting Yan Zhaoge’s eyes. Both their gazes were cold and tranquil.

  Yan Zhaoge said, “Meng Wan and the Extreme Yin Crown did not go to Broad Creed Mountain, and aren’t here either. From the looks of it, they have already been sent to the World beyond Worlds?”

  Huang Jie said calmly, “This is only natural.”

  “Since the Radiant Light Sect made the decision to interfere with the affairs of the Eight Extremities World, they would naturally engage it on a full scale. The Extreme Yin Crown would definitely be moved away as soon as possible, with the Sacred Sun Clan also receiving full support.”

  “Having been trapped between the heavens and the earth for so many years, Ancestor Purple Sun also finally succeeded in taking that last step, ascending to the World beyond Worlds.”

  “Brought along by him along with the guarding of the treasure, three young disciples of the Sacred Sun Clan could accompany the Extreme Yin Crown to the World beyond Worlds, junior apprentice-sister Meng, senior apprentice-brother Tang and me. Still, in order to assist Elder Deng and the others, I temporarily stayed behind.”

  Glancing at the Myriad Dragon Palace which was obstructing the spiritual light, Huang Jie sighed, “Still, it looks like I won’t be going anywhere now.”

  Yan Zhaoge said mildly, “The Extreme Yin Crown will eventually belong to Yunsheng. She will have the chance to defeat Meng Wan in proper battle. These words-I’ll say them now.”

  Gazing at Yan Zhaoge, Huang Jie said softly, “As far back as during the Heavenly Connection Meet at Clear Concealed Lake, I had already felt that you would be my lifelong enemy, but not in the area of martial arts.”

  “Fighting in battle is only ever the final means, the final step. Many a times, true victory and defeat have already been decided even before a battle occurs.”

  “It is just that as I see it now, I still underestimated you at the end of the day. You are stronger than me. Even now, I still cannot understand how I lost.”

  Huang Jie suddenly closed his eyes, “Still, while I’ve lost, you haven’t won as well.”

  Before his words had landed, the sky shook mightily as an extremely terrifying aura descended, far more terrifying than even that of Deng Lin’s who was at the fourth level of the Martial Saint realm.

  Flames blazed about Huang Jie’s entire body, the pillar of spiritual light above his head actually jolting the Myriad Dragon Palace to the side and guiding that aura towards descending into the Eight Extremities World.

  In an instant, the strength of that aura had completely surpassed the tolerable limits of the Eight Extremities World!

  “I will exchange my life for my Master of the Radiant Light Sect acting once, breaking through the restrictions of dimensional power that suppresses cultivation bases,” Huang Jie opened his eyes wide, “Yan Zhaoge, I will sacrifice my life to take you along with me.”

  Already unable to wield the Extreme Yang Seal, it
seemed like Yan Zhaoge could only be dragged along into death by Huang Jie.

  However, he appeared relaxed as he instead laughed, “Blood Guidance Heavenly Light Golden Lamp-is this technique supposed to be rare?”

  Hearing Yan Zhaoge correctly call out the name of this technique of his, Huang Jie’s pupils dilated abruptly!

  Yan Zhaoge raised his hand and sliced across his wrist as well. Then, pointing outwards, a thread of blood shot into the air, merging within the pillar of spiritual light.

  A mist of blood instantly flew within that spiritual light, its glow becoming chaotic and scattered as it was no longer able to easily persist.

  That terrifying power which originated from the sky above seemed to have encountered an obstacle as it was no longer able to descend within the Eight Extremities World!

  A cold snort that vaguely carried anger seemed to resound from above the nine heavens.

  Yan Zhaoge seemed not to care about it at all as he gazed down upon Huang Jie, saying quietly, “You die, I live. It is as simple as that.”

  A stunned look surfaced on Huang Jie’s usually tranquil features.

  His body shook as he tried to stand up.

  Yan Zhaoge extended his finger, tapping out towards his forehead.

  “Bang!”

  Huang Jie erupted entirely into a haze of blood, scattering within the surrounding air.

  History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 586: Yan Zhaoge returns!

  HSSB586: Yan Zhaoge returns!

  After killing Huang Jie, Yan Zhaoge’s expression was without sorrow or joy as he gazed upwards towards the heavens.

  The pillar of spiritual light was in the midst of completely disappearing, that emitted intent of rage seemingly still lingering amidst the sky.

  Yan Zhaoge said mildly, “We will definitely meet in the future. Even if you don’t look for me, I will be coming to find you.”

  The Northern Ocean Clone appeared beside Yan Zhaoge. Standing at the top of the World Illuminating Peak, he stomped downwards with both feet. The entire World Illuminating Peak instantly collapsed completely, fragmented rock plummeting downwards.

  Following in the footsteps of the Heavenly Thunder Hall of the Thunder Domain, the long-existing Sacred Sun Clan which had once held the position of the number one Sacred Ground of the Eight Extremities World, at its World Illuminating Peak, was today completely destroyed by Yan Zhaoge!

  It was as though the levelling of Black Nightmare Mountain by the Exalted Heaven Shaker Zhan Dongge in the past was replaying itself once more. Having escaped from such a fate that year, the Sacred Sun Clan was still exterminated today.

  Yan Zhaoge’s figure seemed to envelop the entire Eight Extremities World, concealing the high heavens.

  The remaining higher echelon experts of the Sacred Sun Clan apart from the World Illuminating Young Master Huang Jie were all slain by Yan Zhaoge on the spot.

  With the collapse of the World Illuminating Peak, many Sacred Sun Clan martial practitioners were unable to flee in time as they were directly buried alive.

  Amidst the collapse of mountain and earth, other than feeling panicked and desolate, those of the Sacred Sun Clan felt shocked and dazed as well.

  With Deng Sen’s current mutilated state, it was already difficult to distinguish his features. However, from the radiance that his body had emanated earlier, those of them who were in the know would be aware that that was precisely a characteristic of the Radiant Light Sect’s direct lineage martial art.

  While they could not identify which of the otherworldly experts Deng Sen had been, they could still identify him as being one of them.

  Like this, however, their minds were in even greater disarray.

  Where were the otherworldly experts that they had agreed upon?

  Where was the sweeping through the Eight Extremities World that they had agreed upon?

  Where were the descended divinities that graced the mortal dust that they had agreed upon?

  While there was only a single Deng Sen here, unable to see the other descended experts of the Radiant Light Sect whilst only seeing Yan Zhaoge directly arriving and slaying Deng Sen here, they knew that if the other Radiant Light Sect experts were still alive, they would naturally not have sat by and watched such a thing happening.

  With this really having happened, there was only one explanation for it.

  The other Radiant Light Sect experts had likely been slain as well.

  “But…those were three experts comparable to the third level of the Martial Saint realm, and two at the second!”

  “Those two who were at the second level of the Martial Saint realm aside, just those three alone would be equivalent to three Great Flame Devil Kings!”

  “What sort of power could defeat them? How exactly did that Yan Zhaoge do it?”

  No one could answer their question. What awaited them was only eternal darkness.

  The World Illuminating Peak that flickered with radiance all year round like a sun that never set was thereon completely extinguished, never again to shine.

  ……

  After Yan Zhaoge had gone off in pursuit of Deng Sen, in the Central Heaven Region of the Heaven Domain, the Broad Creed Mountain martial practitioners began clearing up the remaining Sacred Sun Clan martial practitioners present.

  Some of them had still been feeling worried about Yan Zhaoge killing those of the Radiant Light Sect earlier. However, things already have come to this point, there was already no use worrying as they might as well just go about with the extermination heartily.

  Led by the Grand Elder Zhang Kun, they began pursuing and slaying the Sacred Sun Clan martial practitioners who had come to Broad Creed Mountain this time.

  Their enemies seemed to have lost their souls as they had no intentions at all of fighting. They could only flee in all directions in panic, being killed by those of Broad Creed Mountain.

  Having witnessed the entire process of Yan Zhaoge’s great battle against the experts of the Radiant Light Sect, they were even more deeply affected than it than everyone else.

  Currently, they felt shocked to the point of numbness, fearful to the point of numbness, such that only a single feeling remained, which was deep desolation that seeped right into the bone.

  These Sacred Sun Clan martial practitioners found it hard to imagine how Yan Zhaoge had been able to defeat so many experts of the Radiant Light Sect, feeling even less able to imagine how they might be able to stand against such a Yan Zhaoge.

  Thus, they could only flee, hurriedly flee before Yan Zhaoge returned.

  Yan Zhaoge having chased Deng Sen all the way back south to the World Illuminating Peak, things would likely end up badly for them.

  As they fled, the Sacred Sun Clan martial practitioners were also feeling dazed. The heavens were vast and the earth was broad, but where could they hide, how could they tide through this tribulation?

  Fu Enshu followed Zhang Kun and the others along in pursuing and exterminating the Sacred Sun Clan martial practitioners.

  After having killed numerous opponents and slain an Essence Talisman Martial Grandmaster of the Sacred Sun Clan who wished not for battle beneath her sword, Fu Enshu turned, seeing Elder Qin on the other side reaping an enemy’s life as well.

  The two exchanged glances, both able to see the emotions within the other’s eyes.

  Elder Qin said, “I had really not thought that he would actually have such heaven-defying methods that surpass all belief. This old man is currently still feeling like this is all within a dream.”

  Fu Enshu naturally knew who this ‘he’ referred to.

  “Let alone you, senior apprentice-uncle, even I feel it hard to imagine, surpassing my expectations,” Fu Enshu said, “While he has always performed miraculous feats, it was too difficult this time such that I really broke out in cold sweat before the matter, feeling like there could only be battling to the death against the enemy.”

  Elder Qin looked a little surprised, “Seeing that you had ret
urned with him, I had still thought that…”

  “That is indeed so. During the previous Seal of the East Sea, it was him who saved me, and I have been travelling alongside him ever since then as well, next returning to the Eight Extremities World together,” Fu Enshu nodded, a rare bitter smile appearing on her face, “Still, never would I have thought that he still has such miraculous methods that seem never to have an end to them.”

  Elder Qin suddenly thought of something as his expression turned stern, “Right, when you were attacked earlier, what exactly happened?”

  Fu Enshu briefly explained the incident, next frowning as she saw Elder Qin’s expression, “What’s wrong?”

  Upon having heard back at the East Sea that Feng Yunsheng and Yin Liuhua had been caught up in the investigations of the Disciplinary Hall, Fu Enshu had already vaguely felt that something was wrong.

  Now, listening to Elder Qin’s narration of the incident, her brows directly knit to the utmost.

  Fu Enshu stood in mid-air, her face green at times whilst red at others, grinding noises emitted from her teeth. Without saying a single word, she turned back and returned towards the Mountain.

  Seeing Fu Enshu this way, Elder Qin knew that something was wrong. Seeing that the Sacred Sun Clan martial practitioners had basically been taken care of, he turned and followed Fu Enshu back.

  Having been heavily injured, the Grand Elder He Ning had not participated in the pursuit as she had remained on the Mountain to recuperate.

  After having returned, Fu Enshu and Elder Qin met He Ning, learning from her that Chang Zheng had already returned, only just having left.

  A strange feeling suddenly arose within Fu Enshu’s heart.

  Unconsciously, she did not go to the Disciplinary Hall or the Assignment Hall, instead heading to the lodgings where she, along with Feng Yunsheng and Yin Liuhua, resided.

  Having neared them, Fu Enshu’s heart jolted as she saw a figure currently standing outside the door.

  Detecting Fu Enshu’s arrival, that person turned. It was precisely Chang Zheng.

  Looking at Fu Enshu, Chang Zheng’s expression did not change.
