Invincible Martial King

Seeing that it was about time, Yin Zhi raised his hand and indicated for Ye Zichen to leave.    

This drum was not an ordinary drum, it was a 13 piece Superior Magic Tool grade item, it required 13 Ninth Layer Of Martial Tao Sect Master warriors to beat the drum at the same time, and was called the sacrificial drum.    

The sound of the drum was powerful and grand, as if it was a magnificent army of thousands charging forward. It carried with it an ancient killing aura as it spread throughout the Sacrificial Square and throughout the entire imperial city at the same time.    

The sacrificial drum was a prelude to the start, it needed to be knocked nine hundred and ninety-one times. If one was to ring the drum and the sky was calm and clear, then it was an omen that the sacrifice would not only be a smooth one, but the Dagan would also become more powerful after the sacrifice.    

Although a majority of cultivators did not believe this, it was still related to national destiny and was passed down from their ancestors. Thus, all the emperors of the Dagan placed great importance on the sacrificial drum.    

Following the sound of the drum, Emperor Qian's stern face turned solemn. The two princes on his left and right were the same. The civil and military officials below were all extremely serious as their blood boiled along with the sound of the drum.    

At this moment, other than the loud and clear sound of the drum, there were no other sounds in the plaza. Even the emissaries of the other empires knew that this was the prelude to a sacrifice and that one needed to use the drum's sound to summon the spirits from all over the sky to receive it.    

It was a kind of ancient rhythm, causing one's blood to surge upon hearing it, as if they had returned to the most dangerous and terrifying ancient era. The Human Clan rose from the lowlands and fought against the heavens and earth, the ancestors bravely killed their enemies, and then led their Human Clan to rise up into the continent.    

Following the loud sound of the drum, the thick clouds in the sky began to dissipate one by one. Although there was no auspicious sign, it was still considered a good sign for the constellations.    

The hundreds of officials of the Dagan Dynasty all secretly nodded their heads. The Dagan was established by martial arts, and now, Emperor Qian was even more so, a first-rate martial arts master. The Imperial clan's offering had not even started, yet the sky had already cleared up a hundred days during the offering ceremony.    

However, just as the sound of the drum was about to end, a pitch black thundercloud floated over from the previously clear sky.    

BOOM!    

The terrifying sound of thunder even overshadowed the sound of the drum, and the thunder cloud whistled over at a terrifying speed. It appeared almost instantly above the Sacrificial Plaza, streaks of red and white lightning interweaved, causing the atmosphere in the entire plaza to become extremely oppressive.    

"Thunder clouds?"    

"What a domineering lightning aura. This is definitely not something that comes naturally."    

"Just who dares to be presumptuous in my Emperor Qian clan's sacrificial ceremony!"    

This ball of thunderclouds did not seem to be generated naturally, neither in terms of speed nor scale. It was obvious that someone was doing it on purpose, causing the hundreds of officials of the Dagan to be angered.    

"Hur hur."    

"State's priest, I am here to deliver a bunch of thunderclouds to you for your viewing. I hope that Your Majesty Emperor Qian can accept them."    

At this moment, a faint laughter came from above the thundercloud. It was clearly a provocation.    

"How dare you."    

"How dare you!"    

"You actually dare to cause trouble for the imperial clan's priest. No matter who you are, you will atone for your sins with your death."    

Before Emperor Qian could say anything, several strong shadows shot out and charged towards Lei Yun.    

BOOM!    

However, before they could even get close, several bolts of terrifying lightning came crashing down. Those few people didn't even have the chance to scream before they turned into ashes in the blink of an eye.    

"What?"    

"In just a single strike, he completely annihilated several of the Ninth Layer Of Martial Tao Sect Master's guards."    

Someone cried out in alarm. Those people just now were the imperial city's imperial guards, and each of them had the cultivation realm of Ninth Layer Of Martial Tao Sect Master. However, under the power of the lightning, they seemed to not even have the strength to resist, and were directly killed.    

"How audacious."    

With a roar, a commander of the imperial guards shot forward like a flood dragon. His soul energy surged as he transformed into a giant spear, shooting toward the thundercloud with an incomparable amount of power.    

"Crunch."    

Lightning flashed violently, and that terrifying spear was smashed apart before it could even touch the thundercloud. In addition, thunder and lightning interweaved, chopping down with a terrifying and savage aura.    

"Ah!    

The leader screamed as he fell to the ground at an even faster speed. Although he still had some energy left, he was heavily injured.    

All of this happened in the time it takes for a spark to fly off a piece of flint. By the time everyone could react, the Guard Commander had already been defeated.    

Almost everyone's expression changed at this moment. If those guards died, then so be it, but this leader of the guards was a real king. Yet, he was also unable to block the lightning strikes. One could imagine just how terrifying this person was.    

"Yan Zheng said. Letting some small fishes and shrimps test me would be looking down on me, right?" A figure appeared above the clouds. His entire body was wrapped in a black robe. Only his eyes were exposed. He looked at Emperor Qian with a hint of ridicule.    

"Who is this person?"    

"What a terrifying aura. Is he going to challenge Emperor Qian?"    

… ….    

Looking at the black robed figure, everyone looked at each other, the atmosphere had become incomparably tense. No one would have thought that at such an important occasion like the Dagan Dynasty, there would actually be someone who dared to come and provoke them without fear of death.    

Lu Chen frowned as he did not expect such an unexpected turn of events.    

At such a crucial moment like this, there was actually someone who came to provoke him?    

However, since the other party dared to act so fearlessly and provoke him, things might not be so simple. Lu Chen had a bad premonition and he always felt that things would not be so peaceful later on.    

"Royal Father."    

Yin Zhi frowned and subconsciously looked at his own Royal Father. On the other hand, the First Prince Yin Hua was indifferent to the situation, as if he had already expected this to happen.    

It was a pity that everyone's attention was focused on the mysterious expert and did not notice the expression of First Prince Yin Hua.    

"Who are you?"    

Yin Zhengdao said majestically with an expressionless face.    

"Hur hur."    

The black cloaked man smiled, and said indifferently: "A person who has come to send you on your way."    

"How dare you!"    

Seeing that he was so rude, the other ministers of the Dagan Dynasty and warriors scolded him one after another. To be disrespectful to Emperor Qian was to the entire Dagan.    

Yin Zhengdao didn't get angry from the black robed man's disrespect. Instead, he shook his head and said, "Zhen, I haven't made a move in ten years. It seems like I've forgotten about it."    

"Since you are unwilling to speak, I will personally pull out your soul and inspect it."    

As his voice faded, the entire world suddenly turned solemn. A domineering and grand aura rushed into the sky like smoke. Under this terrifying aura, even the thick thunderclouds were greatly affected at that moment.    

"Let's give it a try."    

The corner of the black-cloaked person's mouth drew an arc. Immediately, the thundercloud below his feet became increasingly violent. Numerous lightning bolts crazily intertwined and finally gathered together, forming a hundred thousand meter long Thunder Dragon.
