CHAPTER 660: CHAPTER 660: THE TERRIFYING STAR PAVILION

Star Gazing Pavilion.

Ling Chen and ten other Cultivators of the King Realm stood in the air before Liu Xiao.

"You have done very well!"

Liu Xiao nodded with approval.

In this battle, only eleven of them made their move, slaying ten Kings. As for lesser Kings, the casualties were innumerable, at least six to seven hundred.

And not a single one of them had fallen in battle.

Although all nine newly promoted Kings were injured, one of them critically,

Such battle achievements were enough to look down upon the entire East Qing Province!

"You all should go back and meditate on your experiences from this battle!"

Liu Xiao said with a smile.

"Yes!"

Everyone hurriedly responded.

Without Liu Xiao having to say more, they were all eager to meditate and reflect.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

One after another, figures flew towards different parts of the Star Gazing Pavilion.

Ling Chen did the same.

Only Shen Xing remained.

In this battle, he hardly gained any real experience, having only used his Spiritual Power to kill some Cultivators of the Palace Mansion Realm.

To him, that was hardly worth mentioning.

After slaying six Kings, Ling Chen found the strange sensation he felt towards the Green Lotus Sword Manual becoming increasingly intense.

He immediately went back to meditate in seclusion.

"Ye Tianjun, the losses this time should provide you with a great deal of enjoyment!"

Liu Xiao laughed heartily.

A single battle had resulted in the slaying of ten Kings, which was something even the joint forces of the various sects in the Eastern Domain could not bear.

And as losses on one side mounted, his confidence in breaking out of the encirclement increased.

The joint forces of the Burning Flame Sect and the other nine sects had a total of thirty-nine World Realm Kings.

This time, they had lost almost a quarter of their strength.

Only twenty-nine remained.

Yet, his Star Gazing Pavilion currently had twenty-one Kings.

Adding Ling Chen and Shen Xing, two powerhouses with the strength of Kings, they had a total of twenty-three.

The gap had significantly narrowed.

Even though they were still no match for the joint forces of the nine sects if they were to mobilize all at once,

The situation was unquestionably improving.

...

A hundred miles away.

On a Flying Divine Ship.

This was the forward command center for the joint forces of the nine sects.

"Report! Guardian Qin’s team was attacked, eighty percent losses, Guardian Qin has fallen!"

"Report! Lu Guardian has fallen..."

"Report!"

...

No fewer than nine pieces of news converged.

Each voice that sounded brought another piece of bad news.

"How is this possible? How could the people from Star Gazing Pavilion dare to counterattack?"

"Boom!"

Wang Hao slammed his palm down on the wooden table, instantly shattering it.

He was the Sect Master of the Divine Saber Sect.

With a cultivation at the late phase of the third level of the World Realm, he was currently in command of the attack on Star Gazing Pavilion.

But unexpectedly, after three months of Star Gazing Pavilion hiding like a turtle, their counterattack was as swift as thunder!

Nine Kings had perished at the hands of Star Gazing Pavilion.

"Report!"

At this moment, another Cultivator walked in.

"Lord, we have lost contact with Lord Fang’s team."

The Cultivator reported.

"What?"

Wang Hao bellowed with anger.

Fang Yuan was a Guardian from his own Divine Saber Sect!

His Divine Saber Sect had a total of three Kings.

If Fang Yuan had fallen, it would be a significant blow to his Divine Saber Sect.

A Jade Pendant materialized in his hand, and it could be seen that the originally intact Jade Pendant had now broken into three pieces.

"Guardian Fang... is dead..."

Wang Hao stared blankly at the broken Jade Pendant.

"Find out immediately!"

After a long while, a roar echoed out.

A moment later, a group of ragged cultivators arrived on the Flying Divine Ship.

"What on earth happened?"

Wang Hao asked with a grim face.

Now, the Star Pavilion has a total of ten Kings, both Ling Chen and Shen Xing included.

Moreover, Liu Xiao is in control of the grand formation, so it’s impossible for him to leave the Star Pavilion.

How could it be that ten teams almost simultaneously suffered attacks?

Moreover, the captains of these attacked teams were all one-star Kings.

"Lord, this is what happened. We were attacking the Star Pavilion’s Sect Protection Array, when suddenly a King appeared and started a massacre. Our captain fought him, and during their fierce battle, Ling Chen appeared and with one sword strike, killed our captain..."

One by one, the reports came in.

The statements were largely consistent.

The difference was whether it was Ling Chen who killed the captains or not.

"What, how is this possible?"

Wang Hao was completely dumbfounded.

Ling Chen now actually has the strength to kill a King of the World Realm?

Although he had heard before that Ling Chen was the strongest King.

But he didn’t take it to heart.

You have to understand, these captains all wielded Emperor Spiritual Weapons and mastered World Power!

Even if Ling Chen was defying the heavens, wanting to kill a King was as difficult as reaching the sky.

Not to mention, some Kings couldn’t even withstand a single strike from Ling Chen?

Isn’t that too terrifying?

Other Kings who heard this astonishing news also exclaimed in surprise.

This is too unbelievable!

A King being undefeated below the level of Kings is already considered extremely against the heavens!

But Ling Chen was slaughtering one-star Kings like slaughtering pigs and dogs!

This completely overturned their worldview.

"Apart from Ling Chen, are the other Kings the Guardians of the Star Pavilion?"

After a long time, Wang Hao finally asked.

According to what these people said, in most cases, it was Ling Chen who took action to help, which led to the death of their Kings.

But if those Guardians made their move, Ling Chen’s help wouldn’t have been needed, right?

"Not Guardians!"

"The attackers were former Core Disciples!"

"The ones who attacked us were also Core Disciples of the Star Pavilion!"

...

Everyone spoke up in turn.

"How can this be? Where did these Kings come from?"

Wang Hao’s face showed disbelief.

Among the ten teams, the enemies of six teams were former Core Disciples.

The other four teams were not sure.

But how could the Star Pavilion cultivate six Kings in just three short months? That’s too terrifying, isn’t it?

Even the entire Eastern Domain couldn’t do such a thing!

"No, I must report this message to Sect Master Ye!"

Wang Hao immediately sent a message to Ye Tianjun.

Clearly, the matter now was beyond his control.

"Transmit my order, everyone come back immediately, cease attacking the Star Pavilion for now!"

Wang Hao issued another command.

If the Star Pavilion were to strike again, especially if those Guardians intervened, the losses would likely be even heavier.

He didn’t dare to take this risk.

Soon, all the cultivators around the Star Pavilion retreated.

Two hours later, Ye Tianjun and seven other Sect Leaders arrived.

Ling Chen can now slaughter a one-star King!

At least six Core Disciples have advanced to the World Realm!

Ye Tianjun and the others were shocked beyond measure.

They initially thought that the Star Pavilion wouldn’t dare to leave their gates under their threat.

It seems that this was not the case.

They even felt like the Star Pavilion was using them for practice.

Otherwise, once those Guardians made their move, using divide and conquer tactics, even twenty Kings wouldn’t be enough for them to kill.

"Is this really the Star Pavilion? Isn’t that too terrifying?"

Many Kings expressed their astonishment on their faces.

"My lords, there’s no need to worry. Even if the Star Pavilion has a few more Kings, they can’t possibly be our match. We are all Kings, we know the disparity between each level of the World Realm!"

Ye Tianjun provided reassurance.

The primary goal was to stabilize the military morale.

Otherwise, if the military morale wavered and the allied forces disbanded, his Burning Flame Sect might not necessarily be able to withstand the Star Pavilion.

Only by binding these people together did he stand a chance to eradicate the Star Pavilion.
