Chapter 318: The Attack of Purple Cloud Sect
Seeing Xiao Tian instantly annihilate three peak Supreme Celestials, everyone present couldn't help but swallow hard. Initially, they thought that despite Xiao Tian's youth, his strength wouldn't be overly formidable. However, they were utterly shocked by his terrifying power.
"Could it be that the Alliance Leader has also reached the level of touching the Celestial Supreme?"
At that moment, this thought arose in everyone's mind. As for achieving Celestial Supreme, they didn't even dare to think about it. Reaching Celestial Supreme was incredibly difficult; many people couldn't achieve it even after tens of thousands of years of cultivation.
"Long live the Alliance Leader!"
"Long live the Alliance Leader!"
After a brief silence, the crowd erupted in cheers. Having a leader who touched the Celestial Supreme level meant that their Xiao Alliance would become the fourth hegemonic power in the northern region. Those who were loyal followers from the beginning would earn immense respect in the future. Initially, they joined Xiao Alliance due to Mandala's strength, but now they were wholly committed. A leader touching the Celestial Supreme level was significant even in the Great Thousand World. If Xiao Tian could break through to Celestial Supreme, Xiao Alliance could unify the Tianluo Continent and rise to a superpower status.
Meanwhile
In the northern region, at Purple Cloud Sect, a man dressed in a luxurious purple robe, with a jade-like face, sat cross-legged on a meditation cushion. His mere presence seemed to harmonize with the world, giving off an aura of unity between man and nature. Suddenly, he opened his eyes, and an intense pressure emanated from him, causing the surrounding space to tremble. He was the Sect Master of Purple Cloud Sect—Purple Cloud True Lord, who had touched the Celestial Supreme level.
With a wave of his hand, three shattered jade slips appeared before him. These were soul jade slips, linked to the souls of Supreme Celestials.
"Zi Tianbei and the other two are dead. Was it the Xiao Alliance leader, or was it the work of Lei Yin Mountain and Jin Diao Manor?"
A cold light flashed in Purple Cloud True Lord's eyes. "No matter who it is, daring to kill my envoys is a death wish!"
With that, he disappeared from his spot, traveling through space towards Xiao Alliance. Despite the vast northern region, Purple Cloud Sect's territory bordered the northern territory, and with his immense strength, Purple Cloud True Lord quickly arrived at Xiao Alliance.
When he arrived, Xiao Alliance was celebrating, which enraged him. For a mere minor faction to kill his envoys was a blatant disregard for him.
"Xiao Alliance killed my Purple Cloud Sect envoys. Today, I will annihilate Xiao Alliance!"
Purple Cloud True Lord extended his hand, and immense spiritual power surged, transforming into a massive palm print as large as an ancient mountain, pressing down on Da Luo Tian, intending to obliterate Xiao Alliance with one strike. The terrifying attack immediately caught everyone's attention.
"So strong!" They could feel the immense pressure of this attack, leaving them in shock. However, they didn't worry too much. In their view, Purple Cloud Sect's master had touched the Celestial Supreme level, but so had their Alliance Leader.
"Devour!" Xiao Tian willed a massive black vortex into existence, swallowing the colossal palm print and converting it into his cultivation power.
"To kill my Purple Cloud Sect elders, you must have some skills!" Purple Cloud True Lord's purple eyes glowed with a sinister light as he stared at Xiao Tian. "But today, facing me, you still only have one fate—death!"
With those words, he stomped his foot, and purple light surged, conjuring a massive purple figure behind him—it was his Supreme Dharma Body.
"Purple Emperor's Star Plucking Finger!" Purple Cloud True Lord roared, his fingers forming a sword, and pointed towards Xiao Tian.
"Boom!" The massive purple figure mimicked the motion, extending its fingers enveloped in purple light, creating a starry sky illusion, aiming to pluck stars.
Facing this attack, Xiao Tian didn't even summon his Dharma Body; he simply pointed back.
"Bang!" Instantly, the space around Purple Cloud True Lord and his Supreme Dharma Body shattered under Xiao Tian's finger. A terrifying, indescribable force landed on the Dharma Body, disintegrating it into dust despite the countless efforts and resources Purple Cloud True Lord had invested in it.
However, a glow emerged to shield Purple Cloud True Lord from Xiao Tian's casual strike.
"Pfft!" With his Dharma Body destroyed, Purple Cloud True Lord coughed up blood and exclaimed, "Celestial Supreme... you are a Celestial Supreme!"
"How did you break through to Celestial Supreme so quickly?" Mandala, hearing this, was shocked. It had been such a short time, yet Xiao Tian had indeed reached the Celestial Supreme level. She didn't know that Xiao Tian's rapid breakthrough was mainly due to his cultivation in the domain of the realm's core, where time nearly stood still. Training there for decades might only be a fleeting moment outside.
"What? The Alliance Leader is a Celestial Supreme?"
"My heavens, I joined a faction with a Celestial Supreme leader!"
"Our Xiao Alliance is a superpower!"
Mandala was astonished, and the rest of Xiao Alliance was even more so. Celestial Supreme beings were pinnacle powerhouses in the Great Thousand World, true hegemons. With a Celestial Supreme, Xiao Alliance would soon be renowned across the Great Thousand World, becoming one of the superpowers.
At this moment, Purple Cloud True Lord humbly spoke, "Great Celestial Supreme, this matter was the fault of my Purple Cloud Sect elders. I am willing to compensate Xiao Alliance!"
"I do not accept!" Xiao Tian glanced at him coldly. "Since you declared you would destroy Xiao Alliance, I will destroy Purple Cloud Sect first!"
"Great one, there are rules in Tianluo Continent that Celestial Supremes cannot interfere," Purple Cloud True Lord hurriedly said. "Moreover, our Purple Cloud Sect has the backing of a superpower, and we also have Celestial Supremes!"
"So what? I fear nothing!" Xiao Tian said, flicking his finger, sending a surge of energy towards Purple Cloud True Lord. Even if the force behind Purple Cloud Sect had Celestial Supremes, Xiao Tian would remain undaunted.
"Ancestor, save me!" Purple Cloud True Lord cried out in desperation.
