System: Replicating The Heavens-Chapter 480: Ch : Evil Blades of Hell

Alex soon reached the deepest part of the sect, where the main hall stood tall like a giant stone tower. The closer he got, the stronger the spiritual energy became. It felt heavy, almost like a quiet pressure pushing down from above.

He paused for a moment and looked up at the grand hall doors carved with an eagle spreading its wings. He can also sense the interior of the hall, where the sect master was discussing some matters with the elders.

Without wasting any more time, Alex stepped forward and silently walked inside.

Creak~

The heavy doors slowly opened, and Alex walked into the hall with calm steps. The moment he entered, every sound inside stopped. The elders who had been arguing a moment ago froze mid-speech. The sect master, who was sitting on a high throne-like seat, lifted his head in surprise. Dozens of eyes focused on Alex at the same time.

No one recognized him. They only felt a strange pressure wash over the hall. This pressure was gentle yet terrifying, like a quiet storm hidden behind a peaceful sky. Some elders instinctively took a step back.

Alex calmly looked around the hall without saying anything. His presence alone made the whole place feel smaller, as if the main hall itself was bowing under an invisible force. Even though he did not release a single hint of killing intent, everyone could sense that a very powerful person had entered their sect.

Exactly because of this, not even the Sect Master dared to say a single word. Alex's presence alone was enough to press down on everyone like an unseen mountain, making their throats tighten and their tongues freeze. Even breathing felt difficult for some elders.

If anyone else had dared to walk into the main hall so boldly, the Sect Master and elders would have exploded in anger. They would have scolded that person, cursed at them, or even thrown them out of the hall with humiliation. But right now, none of them moved. None of them even considered speaking.

Alex slowly looked at each elder one by one before finally focusing on the sect master. Every elder present was a Life Creation Stage warrior, while the Sect Master of the Heavenly Eagle Sect himself was a Death Domination Stage expert.

While observing the Sect Master and the elders, Alex also scanned the entire Heavenly Eagle Sect but didn't find those two girls. In the end, he can only direct his question to the Sect Master.

"I once met two girls who asked for my help. Although I never gave them a clear promise, I did intend to help them. Can you tell me about them or where they are? If possible, you can call them and bring them to me."

As he finished speaking, the image of the two beautiful girls appeared in the air, forming out of thin space. Alex had seen them before, but he never learned their names or their true purpose. Even so, they had helped him by giving clues about the two Evil Blades of Hell, so he naturally wished to return the favor.

Earlier, no one in the hall dared to speak because of the overwhelming presence Alex was releasing. But the moment the image of the two girls appeared, the entire hall changed. Every elder stood up at once. Even the Sect Master of the Heavenly Eagle Sect rose from his seat.

Shock was written clearly on every face. Alex did not know the reason, but he could clearly see a faint trace of fear in their eyes as well.

"What happened?"

He frowned deeply and asked. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

His frown made everyone in the hall tremble slightly, but they quickly forced themselves to regain composure. Still, not a single person dared to sit down again. The Sect Master even stepped forward cautiously, as if he didn't want a second person to hear what he was about to say.

"Senior, I am not sure what your connection is to these two girls, but I must advise you… Please forget about them. I know you are strong, far stronger than anyone here, but even so, it is better if you stay away from them."

The Sect Master's words were not arrogant or something. His tone carried genuine worry. His hands were trembling ever so slightly, and the elders behind him exchanged anxious glances. It was clear that whatever the reason was, the matter of these two girls was not simple at all.

"Speak clearly. What happened? Tell me everything," Alex said calmly, but his eyes were sharp.

The Sect Master opened his mouth, closed it, hesitated again, and finally let out a long breath. His expression showed fear, worry, and helplessness mixed together.

"Senior… their names are Allegra Bedin and Lucia Caffa. They were the personal disciples of a mysterious Guest Elder of our Heavenly Eagle Sect."

He paused and glanced at the elders, as if confirming he should continue. Then he spoke again.

"That Guest Elder was strange. No one knew his real strength. No one knew where he came from or what his purpose was. But he seemed to know everything. He could see through any person with just one look. Sometimes, it even felt like he knew the future before it happened. Because of this, no one dared to offend him."

The hall fell even quieter as he continued.

"But about a year ago, he suddenly disappeared without warning. He just vanished."

Alex's eyes narrowed slightly, but he remained silent and listened.

"Normally, his disappearance shouldn't have affected our sect," the Sect Master said. "But for some unknown reason, his disappearance attracted the attention of five terrifying beings who called themselves the Evil Blades of Hell."

The elders behind him clenched their fists. Some even lowered their heads after hearing the four words: Evil Blades of Hell.

"And that was not the end. After those five appeared, we discovered something even worse. My Heavenly Eagle Sect had already been infiltrated by two more Evil Blades of Hell for a very long time. So, in total, there were seven of them."
