Chapter 2250 Enmity From A Millennium Ago
“A Heaven-Defying Dao Cultivator?”
“What’s that? I know what Dao Cultivators are, but what is a Heaven-Defying Dao Cultivator?”
“This is my first time hearing about Heaven-Defying Dao Cultivators.”
There were many people in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land who were discussing the current heir of the Prophet Progeny from the Seven Absolutes Sect. However, many of them did not know what a Heaven-Defying Dao Cultivator was. Those who were in the know explained to those who were unaware of what it was.
“As it turns out, it refers to Dao Cultivators who have mastered the Heaven-Defying Art of Cursing!”
“There has only been one Heaven-Defying Dao Cultivator in the history of the Dao Martial Saint Land… He was the heir to the Prophet Progeny, the Second Absolute of the Seven Absolutes Sect, during Sword Saint Feng Qing Yang’s time!”
“Apparently, he could kill someone from thousands of miles away with the Heaven-Defying Art of Cursing… What’s impressive is that he could kill powerhouses at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage when his cultivation base was only at the Sixth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!”
“During that time, most people at or below the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage would cower at the mention of his name. After all, they had no way of protecting themselves if the heir to the Prophet Progeny decided to kill them!”
“Most people from that era were happy that the heir to the Prophet Progeny failed to break through to the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage since he would have an endless lifespan if he had broken through to the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage that’s also known as the Heaven Defying Form. Apart from that, having an endless lifespan meant it was only a matter of time before he broke through to the Eighth and Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage before becoming an Eminent Celestial!”
“If someone so terrifying broke through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, who in the Dao Martial Saint Land could stop or defeat him?”
The people in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land were shocked when they learned what Heaven- Defying Dao Cultivators were capable of. Who knew they had a Heaven-Defying Dao Cultivator in the past, someone who could kill from thousands of miles away. How terrifying!
“Who knew a Heaven-Defying Dao Cultivator would appear again in the Dao Martial Saint Land after a hundred thousand years. Moreover, she’s also the successor of the Prophet Progeny, the Second Absolute of the Seven Absolutes Sect!”
“The current successor of the Prophet Progeny is much more terrifying than her predecessor from a hundred thousand years ago. Based on the fact that she’s able to kill the Sect Leader of Heaven Divination Sect from thousands of miles away, it’s apparent that her cultivation base is at least at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage! After all, the Sect Leader of Heaven Divination Sect was at the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!”
“Not only was the Sect Leader of Heaven Divination Sect at the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, but he was also ranked tenth on the Supreme Saint Ranking… By killing him, the successor to the Prophet Progeny from the Seven Absolutes Sect will take over his place on the Supreme Saint Ranking!”
“The female disciples from the Seven Absolutes Sect are monsters!”
“Indeed.”
“Especially the successor of the Prophet Progeny! Since she has already broken through to the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, it’s only a matter of time before she breaks through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage and becomes an Eminent Celestial!”
“The successor of the Prophet Progeny, the Second Absolute of the Seven Absolutes Sect, is really terrifying. When she fully grows into her power, she’ll be able to kill anyone she wants with just a thought!”
“Why does such a terrifying technique like the Heaven-Defying Art of Cursing exist? How unbelievable!”
Naturally, news about the current successor of the Prophet Progeny from the Seven Absolutes Sect being a Heaven- Defying Dao Cultivator caused an uproar in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land. Not only that, but she also had an endless lifespan. Just this thought alone sent chills up people’s spines.
“Fortunately, we didn’t offend the Seven Absolutes Sect… I’m afraid the three great sects aren’t as lucky.”
Many people were relieved knowing they had done nothing to offend the Seven Absolutes Sect. They did not have any conflict with the successor of the Prophet Progeny as well. However, as relieved as they were, they could not help but feel sorry for the three great sects.
After all, the enmity between the three great sects and Seven Absolutes Sect dated back to a hundred thousand years. It was an understatement just to call them mortal enemies!
“I’m afraid this is only the beginning for the successor of the Prophet Progeny from the Seven Absolutes Sect.”
“I agree. Since she has cultivated the Heaven-Defying Art of Cursing, she could kill anyone below the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage in the three great sects with just a thought!”
“Terrible! It’s absolutely horrifying!”
The general consensus among the people in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land was the heir to the Prophet Progeny would definitely target more people from the three great sects after killing the Sect Leader of Heaven Divination Sect with the Heaven-Defying Art of Cursing!
There were also some people who objected to the Seven Absolutes Sect killing so many powerhouses.
“The Seven Absolutes Sect appeared during such trying times and killed so many powerhouses from the Black Kshetra Sect and the Heaven Divination Sect… Do they have any consideration for the human race at all? After all, the Devil Clans from the Land of Exile have already invaded the Lower Province. It won’t take long before they invade the Upper Province!”
The discussion continued among the people in the Upper Province.
“From what I know, the three great sects have been killing disciples from the Seven Absolutes Sect for the past hundred thousand years… Now that the Seven Absolutes Sect has a few outstanding disciples, aren’t they allowed to avenge their predecessors?”
“That’s right! Although it’s said that there’s no end to vengeance, the enmity between the Seven Absolutes Sect and the three great sects is unreconcilable… It’s pointless to think about the greater good of mankind before such enmity.”
Although there were people who empathized and supported the Seven Absolutes Sect, there were more people criticizing the Seven Absolutes Sect.
“People from the Seven Absolutes Sect are really ignorant… They still want to kill their own kind and cause infighting among humans at such a critical juncture!”
“Regardless of the enmity, they should set it aside until we defeat the Devil Clans for the sake of humanity… The only party who will gain from this are the Devil Clans!”
“Initially, I’d sympathized with the Seven Absolutes Sect… However, after the recent events, I feel that they had brought everything upon themselves!”
“I agree.”
It did not take long before more and more people in the Upper Province were criticizing the Seven Absolutes Sect. They thought the disciples from the Seven Absolutes Sect had gone too far. However, was there any merit to their opinions?
On a snow-capped peak in the northern region, an old figure kneeled before a nameless tombstone.
The figure belonged to an old man. He mumbled to himself, “Senior brother… After three hundred years, that man from the Heaven Divination Sect is finally dead! I’m useless for not being able to personally avenge you… However, the person who avenged you is my disciple, your junior niece. She’s the successor of the Prophet Progeny! I hope you can rest in peace now!”
The old man was none other than the Old Prophet, the former heir to the Prophet Progeny, the Second Absolute of the Seven Absolutes Sect!
Three hundred years ago, there were two successors for the Prophet Progeny in the Seven Absolutes Sect. Apart from the Old Prophet, there was also the Old Prophet’s senior brother. At that time, their whereabouts were discovered by a Heaven Divination Sect’s disciple. That Heaven Divination Sect’s disciple tracked them down over thousands of miles just to kill them. The Old Prophet escaped and managed to hide due to his senior brother’s help. However, his senior brother was caught by the Heaven Divination Sect’s disciple. His senior brother was tortured for ten days and ten nights before he succumbed to death. The Heaven Divination Sect’s disciple had tortured his senior brother in order to force the Old Prophet out of hiding. The Old Prophet vividly remembered the days when he had to watch his senior brother being tortured. It was excruciating. He had wanted to surrender to the Heaven Divination Sect’s disciple so that his senior brother did not have to suffer. However, he managed to resist the urge because he knew he bore the responsibility of passing down the Prophet Progeny, the Second Absolute of the Seven Absolutes. If he was caught as well, it would be the end of the Prophet Progeny.
The Old Prophet laughed heartily. His laugh was carefree as though a weight had been lifted off his shoulders.
The Heaven Divination Sect’s disciple who tortured his senior brother for ten days and nights was the Sect Leader of the Heaven Divination Sect who was killed by the Old Prophet’s disciple using the Heaven-Defying Art of Cursing not too long ago!
Previously, the Old Prophet felt his chance of avenging his senior brother grew slimmer as his enemy grew stronger and stronger before eventually becoming the Sect Leader of Heaven Divination Sect… There were many nights when he woke up in despair in the middle of the night! However, his direct disciple, his senior brother’s junior niece, had finally killed their enemy and avenged his senior brother. How could he remain calm?
“Have no consideration for the greater good of mankind?” Without knowing when, a curvaceous figure landed not far away from the Old Prophet.
It was a beautiful lady.
She was the former heir of the Red Dust Progeny, the Seventh Absolute of the Seven Absolutes Sect. She was also Han Xue Nai’s master.
“If it’s not for the fact that the Devil Clans could invade at any time and for the greater good of mankind, the three great sects would be covered in blood. How ignorant of these people! Don’t they know the Seven Absolutes Sect is merely avenging the enmity from a millennium ago!”
The enmity from a millennium ago referred to the enmity between the Seven Absolutes Sect and the three great sects within the last thousands of years. The people that the new disciples of the Seven Absolutes Sect had killed were not randomly selected. All these people who were killed had killed someone from the Seven Absolutes Sect in the past one thousand years!
