Modern World's Martial Dao Human Immortal-Chapter 437 423: Seal the Mountain

"Sect Leader Alkaid!"

The Golden Ni Demon Lord dodged and defended against the Sword of the Void slashed down by Alkaid, while his Divine Sense vibrated, "Only I know the location of that secret hoard! Though I've acquired some Dao Lord Talisman Records, I've never entered the core area of the hoard. The most precious treasures are still inside. If Sect Leader Alkaid could obtain this hoard, you'd certainly advance further and successfully Integrate Dao. Ascending to Dao Lord is not a mere dream."

"Do you know what the biggest difference is between cultivators and ordinary people?"

Alkaid didn't wait for his response and continued, "The greatest difference is, when mortals are driven to a dead end, at least they can rely on their bravery to possibly drag their enemies down with them. But cultivators... The weak have no right even to kill themselves in the face of the strong. They can't even hide the secrets deep within their souls."

Four streams of Great Annihilation Sword Qi descended at that moment.

The Great Path of Destruction within them continually annihilated his Demon Body, wearing down the Heavenly Demon Origin at the core of his Demon Body.

"Weakling!"

A flash of despair crossed the eyes of the Golden Ni Demon Lord.

After despair, there came an indescribable brutality and madness, "Alkaid, we are both from Shattered Void Realm, do you really think I have no power to resist at your hands?"

The next moment, the Heavenly Demon Origin fiercely burned within him, numerous talismans also appeared beside him, quickly detonating, along with his own Dao Artifact.

"Don't even think about getting anything from me! Hahaha..."

In this bout of mad shouting, the Shattered Void Demon Lord used up all his strength.

Even though Alkaid tried to use the Heaven-Sealing Stele to suppress him, it was to no avail.

In the end, he merely managed to bind a strand of the Heavenly Demon Origin from the self-destructing True Demon Body.

This outcome slightly furrowed Alkaid's brow.

"A Shattered Void fully self-destructing... I indeed can't easily stop it, of course, this has much to do with the many powerful talismans in the hands of this Golden Ni Demon Lord," Alkaid thought to himself.

With these talismans acting as lethal moves, the threat of this Demon Lord was no less than that of Zhen Xuanyuan.

However...

Soon, he took out one of the Heavenly Demon Origins, and activated it with the "Trace Origin" Divine Skill.

In an instant, he felt the presence of tens of thousands of targets similar to this Heavenly Demon Origin.

But among these tens of thousands of targets, the ones truly important to him were located deep in the starry sky.

"I've found it then," Alkaid whispered with a light chuckle.

Of course, it's quite a distant target, exactly where it is...

He probably needed to establish where this Golden Ni Demon Lord had traveled in the starry skies over the years.

The task of searching for the starry skies locations visited by the Golden Ni Demon Lord could be assigned to the Heavenly Dao Sect.

For a moment, Alkaid gathered his thoughts.

"This Golden Ni Demon Lord is fleeing back, the remaining Demon Lords..."

He moved, continuing towards the next Demon Lord's stronghold.

Before long, a massive palace built in the mountains appeared before him.

As expected, the cultivators above Hollow Void in this palace were gone as well.

Alkaid captured a few cultivators of the Golden Core Realm to use the Trace Origin method for a while, but found that the Shattered Void Demon Cultivators of this valley were nearly reaching the headquarters of the Yin Moon Sect.

Historically, the Yin Moon Sect produced a Dao Lord skilled in formations who laid down a Fifteenth Level Formation.

With this formation in place, even if Alkaid was twice as powerful, he had no chance of breaking through the mountain gate of the Yin Moon Sect.

Thus, pursuing them was pointless.

He then turned around and took some time to reach the Heaven's Curse Sect.

Looking at the area shrouded in formations, Alkaid concealed his aura, "A Thirteenth Level formation can't stop me. First infiltrate the formation, destroy the Transmission Formation to prevent being surrounded by the Yin Moon Sect's top experts coming out in full force."

Thinking this, Alkaid momentarily paused.

"Wait! The Yin Moon Sect has only eleven active Shattered Voids, and previously I had already killed the Eight Desolates and the Darkness Demon Lords, leaving only nine Shattered Voids. During the time I've been in the Yin Moon Sect, I've successively eliminated the Splicing Soul, Chi Hun, Strange Night, Sky Prison, Blood Ming, and Golden Ni six major Shattered Voids. In other words, there are only three active Shattered Voids left in the Yin Moon Sect?"

Calculating this, Alkaid suddenly realized that he was quickly depleting the Shattered Voids of the Yin Moon Sect.

"If I'm a bit more efficient and stealthily extinguish the Curse Mark Demon Lord, the Yin Moon Sect will be left with just two Demon Lords and one Sect Leader Moon Shadowless, totaling three major Shattered Voids..."

He pondered the feasibility of this plan, "The remaining three Shattered Voids are of very high quality. Blood Ming is a being who could contend with Zhen Xuanyuan, and given that Demon Cultivators excel in preserving their lives, in some ways this chief elder from the Yin Moon Sect is stronger than Zhen Xuanyuan. Moon Shadowless is no weakling either, probably close to Zong Wenxian in strength. Perhaps a bit weaker in a straight fight, but still possessing around 90 million combat power, plus a regular Demon Lord with about 70 million..."

Very high.

As long as he ensures his condition is optimal, the feasibility of this plan is very high.

However, after a moment, he still suppressed this thought.

"Enough, both Moon Shadowless and Blood Ming are direct disciples of Hei Tian Demon Venerable. They might also possess treasures like those Essence of the Great Dao that Jing Hong True Monarch had. If such treasures are present, I would need to play all my cards, and if they were to flee with all their strength, I might not be able to completely stop them after using the Essence of the Great Dao. If any of them successfully escaped, my trump card would inevitably be exposed to everyone..."

Alkaid shook his head, "Other cards aside, exposing the top-tier Dao Artifact would inevitably attract the attention of the Dao Lords of the Void Path..."

The Dao Lords of the Void Path were already reluctant to see a new Dao Lord of the Void emerge, let alone reveal the top-tier Dao Artifact on him...

With such a top-tier Dao Artifact as a lure, they wouldn't mind their True Bodies descending.

Even if ultimately they got nothing, snuffing out a potential threat in its cradle still wouldn't be a wasted trip.

As for offending Jun Tian Dao Lord...

"Joking around, when a Dao Lord intends to hide something, it's unlikely that other Dao Lords can trace any evidence."

"Even if they manage to discover it, so what?"

"In the worst case, we just fight it out."

"As Dao Lords, who would fear whom?"

"Annihilating this Curse Mark Demon Lord will bring this operation to an end," he said.

Alkaid smiled faintly, "Yin Moon Sect killed Bu Zhou True Monarch, and I, Alkaid, ventured alone into the heart of Yin Moon Sect and slew seven Shattered Void to avenge you. Anyone who hears of this must praise me highly."

At that moment, his figure flashed as he stepped inside the Heaven's Curse Sect.

Using the True Spirit's Light, he precisely locked onto the Curse Mark Demon Lord.

This Demon Lord was also maintaining sufficient alertness, ready to merge instantly with the power of the Sect Protection Array at any sign of danger.

Unfortunately...

Alkaid directly took out a Dao Artifact imbued with the Darkness Dao and struck it directly into a node of the array's operation.

In an instant, the highly vigilant Curse Mark Demon Lord felt as if his connection with the Sect Protection Array had been severed.

"This is..."

The Demon Lord was slightly stunned.

And his reaction was exceedingly quick.

There's a traitor!

A traitor revealed the workings of the Heaven's Curse Sect Protection Array.

And the purpose of stopping the Sect Protection Array was...

"Not good!"

The Curse Mark Demon Lord burst forth, heading towards the Transmission Formation immediately.

But almost at the same time he dashed towards the Transmission Formation, Alkaid had already summoned the Heaven-Sealing Stele, trapping him along with the piece of Void where he was located.

Right after, he executed a Void Blink, instantly moving tens of thousands of miles away from the Heaven's Curse Sect.

As he took the Curse Mark Demon Lord away from Heaven's Curse Sect, the demon lord was fiercely struggling, unleashing various killing moves and Dao techniques that caused the Heaven-Sealing Stele to shake violently.

To avoid any damage to the Heaven-Sealing Stele, after executing three consecutive Void Blinks and having distanced himself from the Heaven's Curse Sect by millions of miles, Alkaid directly cast the demon lord out.

Free from the Heaven-Sealing Stele, the Curse Mark Demon Lord, seeing the completely different surroundings, turned pale...

"I... have been abducted?"

His eyes held a trace of disbelief.

To be abducted directly by someone who stormed into his sect, disregarding the fully activated Sect Protection Array, and to take him, a powerful Shattered Void Demon Lord, out of the Heaven's Curse Sect!?

This gap...

How vast was it!?

Without a moment's hesitation.

This Demon Lord didn't even consider fleeing but instead immediately bowed deeply in salute, "Curse Mark pays respect to Sect Leader Alkaid. I, Curse Mark, am willing to lead all the cultivators of Heaven's Curse Sect to serve under Sect Leader Alkaid, at your beck and call, obeying all your orders."

The wise adapt!

The Demon Lord directly chose to offer his loyalty in an attempt to save his own life.

"Obey all my orders? Then I order you to commit suicide,"

Alkaid said.

The Curse Mark Demon Lord paused slightly.

And Alkaid also felt that his words were somewhat inapt.

"Never mind."

A Shattered Void Demon Cultivator could add a significant amount of experience to the "Demon Hunter" branch; how could he just let him die in vain? That would be too wasteful.

The next moment, the Sword of the Void slashed down.

...

Yin Moon Sect.

Moon Shadowless saw the message from the Soul Lamp Hall and was so enraged that he directly crushed the transmission jade.

"Imbecile! Imbecile! Such a big imbecile!"

This Sect Leader of Yin Moon Sect burst out furiously, "I've said it, tell him to bring people back to the sect! Jin Ni died because he didn't have a Transmission Formation set up in his territory fast enough. What are you, Curse Mark? Equal to Jing Hong True Monarch, a powerhouse like you, how could you resist, and with what? With your life?!"

Below, the meeting room that had once been "filled with talents" now had only one Shattered Void left.

Looking at the empty meeting room, his face also filled with a sorrowful expression of "one's own misfortune in the misfortunes of others."

"Let the Supreme Elder return, then... shrink our forces... close the mountain for a thousand years, and discuss coming out of seclusion only after the return of the Demon Lord,"

the Shattered Void Realm Supreme Elder sighed, "Alkaid's brilliance is superior to Jing Hong True Monarch; even though the latter is formidable, he isn't adept at the Great Void Path. Many elders, although they can't defeat him, at least they can flee, but Alkaid not only masters the Great Void Path, his Lifebound Daoist Art is the highly versatile Void Blink. Anyone weaker than him, once targeted, has only a dead end. From this point of view, his threat is even greater than that of Jing Hong True Monarch."

He looked at Sect Leader Moon Shadowless, "The loss has already been so severe... Yin Moon Sect can't hold out any longer. Unless we defy the Demon Lord's command and call back the elders guarding the Gate of the Immortal Realm with the Star Core, our only choice to preserve the vital energy of our sect is to close the mountain, cede all the territories bordering the Southern Region."
