Primordial Divine Emperor-Chapter 128 - 100: Eighth Layer of the Profound Sea, Shocking the Entire Arena

The setting sun was like blood, the sea of people like a tide.

The golden afterglow of the sunset shone upon the Seventy-second Small Peak, making that silhouette stand out brilliantly.

At this moment, Ye Xiaofan seemed not to be walking towards the Seventy-second Small Peak, but ascending a ladder leading to sacred glory.

He stepped against the endless rays of sunset, as if already leaving an indelible mark on the history of the Divine Sect, with colors illuminating ages.

When the figure appeared at the summit of the Seventy-second Small Peak, the entire Divine Sword Sect seemed to quiet down momentarily, the calmness a precursor to more intense boiling.

Indeed, it was so.

Instantly.

"Five months, he truly kept his promise after five months, stepping onto the Seventy-two Small Peaks."

"Although this moment came later than I imagined, no matter what, he finally ascended steps that countless people couldn’t reach in their lifetime."

"Ye Xiaofan, today regardless of victory or defeat, his name deserves to resonate throughout the Divine Sword Sect."

"One year and four months since joining the sect, ascending the Seventy-second Small Peak—this is the only record in the Divine Sword Sect for hundreds of years, indeed outshining peers, outshining the current generation."

Many older disciples of the Divine Sword Sect sighed continuously. Regardless, that figure achieved what countless extraordinary Demon Fiends might never achieve in a lifetime. Whether a waste Martial Soul or a Child of Destiny, today, ascending the Seventy-second Small Peak with such calmness, this achievement alone has already won over many Divine Sword Sect disciples.

And the most numerous among those standing here was Array Peak disciples. After all, the one challenging the Seventy-second Small Peak was their temporary Saint Heir for Array Peak. Even though most of them felt unsettled, they still stood here.

They might not have come to cheer for that young fellow but chose to stand quietly for Array Peak.

"The same new disciples, no matter what he was like before, today, he earns my solemn respect; such accomplishment, makes one look afresh."

"He whom we once looked down upon the most, now has become an existence beyond our reach. Thinking back to those days, you and I were laughably absurd, absurdly laughable."

Numerous newly joined disciples had mixed feelings, gazing at that silhouette already beyond pursuit, smiling in self-mockery.

However, some showed puzzlement, unable to hold back laughter: "Strange, am I the only one noticing that silhouette seems different from before?"

"I felt it too; indeed, something seems different, but what exactly is different, I couldn’t say immediately." Someone furrowed their brow slightly upon hearing this.

But soon, they snapped back, unexpectedly realizing: "It’s transformation, an apparent transformation, that’s the aura of transformation."

"That’s right, indeed the aura after transformation. I know what’s different, he’s become somewhat inscrutable, could it be that he broke through again?"

More and more old extraordinary Demon Fiends of the Divine Sword Sect raised their gaze, eyes subtly revealing a faint expression.

Now the feeling that silhouette gives is beyond understanding, unfathomable, hard to grasp, which is precisely the feeling when facing an already grown unparalleled Demon Fiend.

That person, seems no longer to be who they once thought he was.

Meanwhile. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

On the Seventy-second Small Peak.

When Ye Xiaofan arrived at the peak, the figure sitting cross-legged had already closed his eyes at some unknown moment, even his arrival didn’t make the other take him seriously.

"I truly didn’t expect you to dare come." Nalan Linyun did not open his eyes but slowly spoke.

Ye Xiaofan smiled slightly at the words, breezy and calm: "Master said, a true man, acts on some things and refrains from others. The words spoken, no matter how difficult, must be fulfilled; otherwise, a person has no standing."

Nalan Linyun followed the sound to open his eyes slowly, nonchalantly glancing down at Ye Xiaofan, pondering slightly before smiling with lips raised: "What a true man, acts on some things and refrains from others. Junior brother, do you think you can withstand a move from senior brother?"

Nalan Linyun finished speaking, then shook his head in public: "Sometimes weakness and ignorance aren’t the causes of jokes; arrogance is. Knowing it’s defeat, why let you ascend the peak from South Peak?"

Feeling the other’s arrogance and disdainful manner, Ye Xiaofan couldn’t help but furrow his brow secretly.

Even though he had been in the Divine Sword Sect for less than a year and a half, he had heard about the feud between Dugu Nan and Heavy Sword Peak.

At this moment, Nalan Linyun’s words and attitude clearly stemmed from emotions due to his identity as a Sword Saint’s protégé, with Nalan Linyun standing up for his sect.

"Senior brother is right; sometimes arrogance indeed blinds one’s eyes. But how does senior brother know junior brother definitely can’t withstand a move?"

Upon considering this, Ye Xiaofan smiled slightly, continuing: "Master often says, Cultivator must never underestimate their opponent. Even the strongest Warship may fail in a gutter. Senior brother, I think Master is right, don’t you?"

Here Ye Xiaofan’s Warship clearly referred to Dugu Nan, while the gutter referred to the current Peak Master of Heavy Sword Peak.

According to Ye Xiaofan’s understanding, hundreds of years ago, before Dugu Nan became the First Generation Sword Saint, he had feuds with the Peak Master of Heavy Sword Peak due to rivalry. However, later, this Peak Master used somewhat unfair means to win over young Dugu Nan once on the Divine Sword Sect’s ’Warship,’ leading to a significant feud between the two.
