The silver-haired old man's voice wasn't loud, but it carried rolling sound waves, making it incredibly deafening.

Guan Lin and the others all turned to look.

A young man said, "Judging by their clothes, they seem to be from the Nine Tripods Sect of the Western Profound Domain."

"The Nine Tripods Sect?"

Everyone looked closer and indeed saw a small cauldron emblem on the chests of the silver-haired old man and his group—the symbol of the Nine Tripods Sect.

The young man continued, "The Nine Tripods Sect... a silver-haired old man... He... he's Liang Taishang of the Nine Tripods Sect."

"What?"

Guan Lin exclaimed in shock, "Are you sure he's Liang Taishang?"

"There's no mistake!"

The young man said solemnly, "Among the Supreme Elders of the Nine Tripods Sect, only Liang Taishang has silver hair. His mastery of his Thunder Attribute Technique is absolutely monstrous."

Hiss...

Hearing this, everyone gasped, clearly not expecting to meet such a major figure here.

"To think Liang Taishang would actually come here, and he even told Su Mo to get lost."

"Heh, Su Mo has really picked a fight with the wrong person this time!"

"Not necessarily. Su Mo is the one who dared to provoke the Celestial Tiger Sect and threaten to annihilate them. His strength shouldn't be underestimated."

"Anyone can talk big!"

The young man suggested, "Senior Brother Guan, let's not leave just yet. Let's see if Su Mo really has what it takes."

Guan Lin nodded heavily.

Just now, Su Mo had told him to get lost, humiliating him to no end. Although he said nothing, his heart was simmering with rage.

Therefore, he wanted to watch with his own eyes as Liang Taishang beat Su Mo to death.

"You said... you'd smash us into a pulp?"

Su Mo raised an eyebrow and asked, displeased.

'Are people these days always so short-tempered?' he thought.

Liang Taishang said arrogantly, "That's right. I intend to smash you into a pulp. If you know what's good for you, leave the Dan Immortal Pool at once."

"I refuse!"

Su Mo said flatly.

He had poured more than half a bottle of Dust-Removal Celestial Spirit Liquid into the Dan Immortal Pool and hadn't finished absorbing it yet.

'Leaving now would be a huge waste.'

"What?"

Liang Taishang looked astonished.

'This brat actually dared to refuse me? The nerve!'

Before he could speak, he saw Su Mo wave his hand as if shooing a fly. "You should leave now, before I get angry."

"What do you mean by that?"

Liang Taishang demanded.

Su Mo said indifferently, "It's simple. I've killed too many people today and don't feel like killing anymore. I'll spare your pathetic life."

Normally, if someone had been so disrespectful to him, he would have attacked without hesitation.

But today was different!

He had been killing constantly since entering the Demon Venerable Burial Ground, and he was finding it incredibly boring. He thought he'd be charitable and let Liang Taishang go this once.

However, Liang Taishang did not appreciate the sentiment.

Liang Taishang said disdainfully, "Are you implying that you can kill me?"

Su Mo nodded. "I can smash you into a pulp with a single palm strike."

"Insolent!"

Liang Taishang's face darkened.

'Damn it all!'

'This brat is far too disrespectful, claiming he can smash me into a pulp with one palm strike.'

'I'm a Martial King Great Perfection powerhouse, for crying out loud!'

Liang Taishang said coldly, "Such arrogance. Boy, it seems to me you're tired of living."

BOOM!

A terrifying aura erupted from Liang Taishang's body.

Just then, a voice suddenly called out from the distance, "Liang Taishang, wait!"

Everyone turned toward the sound and saw several figures rushing over from afar. All of them were experts at the Martial King Great Perfection Realm.

"Haitiansha?"

Liang Taishang frowned.

WHOOSH!

The sound had barely faded when Haitiansha, along with a few Supreme Elders from the Celestial Sea Sect and dozens of powerhouses from the Northern Profound Domain, landed before the crowd.

"Is Bai Yun here?"

Haitiansha shouted toward the crowd.

Bai Yun immediately leaped out of the Dan Immortal Pool, hurried over to Haitiansha, and said respectfully, "Greetings, Sect Leader. Greetings, Mo Taishang, Lan Taishang..."

"So you really are here!"

Haitiansha said, pleasantly surprised.

Bai Yun pulled Haitiansha over to Su Mo. "Sect Leader, let me introduce you. This is..."

"Not now!"

Haitiansha gave Su Mo a casual glance before ignoring him completely. He asked, "Bai Yun, let me ask you, do you know any Martial King Powerhouses?"

"Martial King..."

Bai Yun glanced at Su Mo, then looked over at Shen Weiyang, Lu Ya, and the others.

Ignoring Su Mo, Haitiansha said with delight, "Lady Shen, Fellow Daoist Lu, you're all here! Haha, this is wonderful."

"Sect Leader Hai, what's happened?"

Lu Ya asked.

Haitiansha said urgently, "There's no time to explain! In short, everyone needs to prepare to fight the Burial Land Demon Venerable with me."

"The Burial Land Demon Venerable?"

Lu Ya exclaimed, "How did you let him out?"

Haitiansha said, holding some details back, "Not only is the Burial Land Demon Venerable out, but he's also hunting us down everywhere. We're gathering experts to fight him. It would be best to kill him here, or the consequences will be endless."

Lu Ya's expression changed.

The Burial Land Demon Venerable was exceptionally powerful. If he escaped from this place, the entire Northern Profound Domain would know no peace.

"Master, is the Burial Land Demon Venerable very strong?"

Hua Tianmen asked uncertainly.

Lu Ya said grimly, "Extremely strong. I'll tell you the truth: the Burial Land Demon Venerable was once an Evil Demon at the Martial Venerable Great Perfection Realm. Although his power has diminished after being sealed for several thousand years, he's still strong enough to wipe out all the forces in our Northern Profound Domain."

"This..."

Hua Tianmen's face turned pale as a sheet.

Lu Ya said with a grave expression, "Sect Leader Hai, the Burial Land Demon Venerable is immensely powerful. If he's allowed to drink human blood and recover to the Martial Venerable Realm, all of us will die."

"That's why I contacted you all!"

Haitiansha said.

Shen Weiyang frowned. "I'm afraid just the people here won't be enough to eliminate the Burial Land Demon Venerable."

Haitiansha nodded. "The situation is urgent. If the two of you know any other Martial King experts, please summon them as quickly as possible."

"Well..."

The two hesitated.

Haitiansha said sternly, "You two, this is no longer a matter of personal favors. The very survival of everyone in the Northern Profound Domain is at stake. Please, don't hesitate any longer."

"Alright, we do know a few experts!"

Shen Weiyang and Lu Ya nodded in unison and sent out Sound Transmission Talismans to gather their forces.

Even with Su Mo around, there was no guarantee he could defeat the Burial Land Demon Venerable. After all, the Demon Venerable was a monster who could grow stronger just by drinking human blood.

Therefore, the more people they gathered, the better.

"I'll have to trouble you both!"

Haitiansha thanked them, then turned to Liang Taishang and pleaded, "Fellow Daoist Liang, why don't you join us in fighting this Evil Demon?"

"This is a matter for your Northern Profound Domain. As someone from the Western Profound Domain, why should I get involved?"

Liang Taishang sneered.

Haitiansha said flatly, "You're mistaken, Fellow Daoist Liang. If our Northern Profound Domain falls, I doubt your Western Profound Domain, the Eastern Profound Domain, or even the Southern and Central Profound Domains will be spared."

"This..."

Liang Taishang hesitated.

Once the Burial Land Demon Venerable recovered his strength, he would be a Martial Venerable expert, and might even advance to Martial Emperor. The Western Profound Domain truly wouldn't be able to protect itself.

'I have no choice but to agree.'

'I must kill the Burial Land Demon Venerable before he fully recovers his Realm to eliminate this threat for good.'

Liang Taishang narrowed his eyes. "I can agree to your request. But before that, you must let me kill someone first."
