Great Name Lake, located in the southern part of Huzhou, is a place of beautiful scenery.
Although there are neither rare treasures nor special cultivation grounds, every year, many come to admire its beauty.
Stretching thousands of miles, the lake covers a vast area, with clear, bright waters and countless fish and shrimp, making it a beautiful and bountiful lake.
But at this moment, Great Name Lake has become the focal point of everyone's attention.
Seven days have passed quickly, and during these days, many have arrived early to secure a good spot to witness the entirety of this battle.
The once vast and empty lake surface is now teeming with people, a sea of faces stretching as far as the eye can see.
Yet everyone is sensible, standing on both sides of the lake, not venturing into Great Name Lake itself. After all Zhong Kui Imperial Son and the Nineteenth Prince are both Saint Realm experts. Once they clash, the heavens and earth will surely turn upside down. If they get too close, they may be swept up in the aftermath, which would be dangerous.
"Finally made it!"
A lovely figure came rushing in, panting heavily; it was Liu Xu.
She spent all her resources and hurried nonstop to finally arrive at Great Name Lake on the last day.
Now, as she looked around, the surroundings of Great Name Lake were densely packed; none were weaklings. With her strength, she could only stay in the crowd, unable to get closer.
"All major forces have basically sent someone here; it seems this battle indeed has far-reaching implications!"
Liu Xu's face was solemn; from the lineup of spectators, she could see the importance of this battle. She was neither the Emperor's Daughter of the Ancient Liu Family nor a Saint Realm expert. Hoping to stop this battle was almost a pipe dream.
"Big fool, why did you accept the challenge!"
Liu Xu furrowed her brows, wishing to go knock some sense into Su Han's muddled head.
No matter how she looked at it, the odds of winning this battle were low, and it was a life-and-death duel. Once defeated, people would die. How did he have the courage to accept the challenge?
But as things have come to this, no matter how anxious Liu Xu was, it was useless. She could only pray for a miracle, that Su Han could achieve final victory. But she knew this possibility was very slim.
Even if Su Han was truly Black Demon, defeating Zhong Kui Imperial Son, who is Saint Realm Seventh Layer, wouldn't be easy. This battle may not be overwhelmingly one-sided, but it's at least three-seven odds; three for Su Han, seven for Zhong Kui Imperial Son.
Shua!
A long rainbow swept in, landing at the front of the crowd, but few said anything because within the rainbow was Prince Nangong.
Although the Nangong Imperial Clan had declined, Prince Nangong was still a top genius. Furthermore, Nangong Great Emperor was still alive, so nobody would underestimate him.
Prince Nangong was now standing on the water, scanning the lineup of spectators, then withdrew his gaze, patiently waiting.
Today, the Imperial Sons present were not limited to Prince Nangong. Other Immortal Forces' Imperial Sons and Emperor's Daughters also came upon hearing. After all, this battle was a peak confrontation of the younger generation, and being the same generation's geniuses, naturally, they didn't want to miss it.
Apart from the Imperial Sons and Emperor's Daughters, many Saint Realm experts also gathered here, wanting to witness this earth-shattering battle.
"The New Demon-Slaying Alliance has arrived!"
A voice rang out from among the crowd, immediately attracting everyone's attention. In the distant sky, a mass of people flew in, like black clouds pressing down on a city, creating an enormous sense of oppression.
The New Demon-Slaying Alliance was formed by four Immortal Forces, their lineup splendid enough to make countless forces tremble.
The four leading figures instilled fear upon mention.
There was no possibility for Great Emperor Realm experts to participate, but the leading saints were famous.
You Mau Great Saint from King Yama's Palace's Ten Great Shadow Marshals!
Flame Calamity Saint from Dugu Imperial Clan!
Pandemonium Saint from Ancient Chu Family!
Yun Ji Saint from Bagua Imperial Palace!
These four were top Saint Realm experts, among them two Great Saints, two Saint Realm Ninth Layers, unparalleled below the Great Emperor.
Apart from these four, the New Demon-Slaying Alliance included thirty to forty people, all Saint Realm without exception.
"The New Demon-Slaying Alliance's lineup is too lavish; with so many saints, they can practically walk sideways except against Immortal Forces!"
"Even the top Blessed Lands have barely a dozen saints, but this New Demon-Slaying Alliance has as many as thirty to forty saints. Such a large lineup just to kill a Black Demon, what a grand gesture!"
"I've heard that in the Heavenly Medicine Blessed Land, twenty-eight saints formed a Demon Slaying Alliance, but they were counter-attacked and twenty-five of them were killed, leaving only You Mau Great Saint and two others alive. Though the New Demon-Slaying Alliance is strong, they may not succeed in killing Black Demon."
This is the New Demon-Slaying Alliance's first public appearance since its establishment. The gathered saintly might of thirty to forty saints creates immense pressure, solidifying the atmosphere of this place.
However, the main character this time is not the New Demon-Slaying Alliance but Zhong Kui Imperial Son.
Zhong Kui Imperial Son was now situated among the four saints, the undisputed central figure.
Zhong Kui Imperial Son had a well-built figure, wore a black feather robe, and his face was slightly pale. But around him, countless ghosts circled, making him appear like the master of Hell.
The Saint Realm Seventh Layer's holy might spread out, vast and mighty, making all ears ring with wails and howls, as if falling into an abyssal ghost cave, forever unable to transcend.
"Is this Zhong Kui Imperial Son? Terrifying, just this holy might is almost suffocating!"
Zhong Kui Imperial Son was incredibly mysterious, with few appearances; thus, not many had seen him personally. But now, just the aura of this holy might was enough to induce fear.
His reputation was well-earned, Zhong Kui Imperial Son might be even more fearful than legends imply.
For a time, the eyes of the crowd burned brightly, their hearts filled with anticipation.
What immense strength does this Zhong Kui Imperial Son possess? What kind of brilliance will this battle showcase?
"Zhong Kui Imperial Son!"
Prince Nangong's gaze was fixed on Zhong Kui Imperial Son; his long-standing target had always been Zhong Kui Imperial Son, but due to insufficient strength, he could only wait for an opportunity.
In the Heavenly Medicine Blessed Land, he had seen Zhong Kui Imperial Son but never truly fought him. Yet the pressure Zhong Kui Imperial Son gave him was unprecedented. Even now, he felt tremendous stress. In a direct confrontation, he would likely be defeated.
New Demon-Slaying Alliance's people arrived grandly, taking one side of the lake, while Zhong Kui Imperial Son kept moving forward, finally settling in the center of Great Name Lake.
He slowly descended, stepping on the lake surface, causing ripples to spread, his expression devoid of happiness or sadness, seemingly having lost all emotions, leaving only indifference.
"Zhong Kui Imperial Son is already present; now we await the Nineteenth Prince's arrival!"
Zhong Kui Imperial Son's appearance made everyone feel immense pressure. Facing such a powerful Zhong Kui Imperial Son, can the Nineteenth Prince truly match him?
