Chapter 104: The Demon Heaven Meeting

After the banquet, Su Yang didn’t immediately leave Qingzhou City.
He planned to raise his level here and then go directly to annihilate the Supreme Immortal Sect.
At his current speed, he could increase his level by approximately four levels in a day.
According to his estimation, achieving the peak Gold Core level should be around Iv50.
One reason was based on the level progression from the initial Gold Core stage to the later stage.
Another reason was that he expected significant changes when he broke through Iv50.
Usually, only when crossing a major threshold would there be a substantial increase in power.
Considering that cultivators often reserved some hidden strength, he planned to elevate his strength to lv70 before confronting the Supreme Immortal Sect. At lv70, with a 20-level advantage over lv 50, he could easily defeat them. Even if they had powerful trump cards, they wouldn’t have a chance to use them.
With his current sword speed, he could reach lv70 in about four days.
His speed had now reached an extreme level, though it didn’t appear supernatural to outsiders. To them, Su Yang still seemed to be swinging his sword at a normal speed. However, in reality, his figure had already overlapped.
What seemed like one sword strike might have already unleashed hundreds or even thousands of strikes.
Despite this incredible speed, Su Yang pondered whether he would be limited to continuously increasing his sword speed to enhance his Sword Intent.
During his contemplation, he inquired with the interface to see if it could solve this issue.
Unexpectedly, he received a response.
There would be a change after reaching lv100.
Well, he would have to wait until he reached lv100.
So, Su Yang stopped dwelling on it for now and focused on his sword practice. Even if he had to reach lv1OO, it wouldn’t take too long at his current speed.
Time passed, and three days went by in the blink of an eye.
Although Su Yang’s plan was sound, not everything went as he had intended.
In the past three days, Su Yang’s Sword Intent level reached lv65.
After reaching lv65, the range of his Sword Intent had expanded to cover thousands of miles.
It was formidable but hadn’t reached the lv70 he had envisioned.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to continue practicing his sword; it was because there had been a new development in the Gu Tong’s situation, which was an opportunity to wipe out a large number of rogue cultivators. He couldn’t let this opportunity slip by.
Previously, he had noticed that Gu Tong and Zhang Jue from the Divine Spirit Sect were planning to attend an event called the Demon Heaven Meeting.
However, there had been no progress until today when the Demon Heaven Meeting finally began.
The Demon Heaven Meeting was a gathering of all Heaven Deviant Stage rogue cultivators.
As for the purpose of their gathering, Su Yang didn’t know, nor did he need to know. Because all these people would die by his hands.
No, not just them—this included the entire cult they had built.
Gathering the top rogue cultivators from around the world was an opportunity he couldn’t pass up.
Su Yang looked at a brand-new sword technique in his mind and was very satisfied.
[Manual of All Beings – Sword Slave Imprint]
Level: lv65
Function: By imprinting the Sword Slave Imprint into the opponent’s mind, as long as their strength is lower than yours, they will be under your control and can execute simple commands.
This was a technique he had wanted to create for a long time, and he only succeeded after reaching lv60.
With this sword technique, he no longer needed to engage in long-term manipulation; he could directly control these rogue cultivators. This not only allowed him to infiltrate their lairs but also to command the leader of the rogue cultivators to gather all of them.
It was incredibly convenient for him to eliminate the world’s top rogue cults. Once these major threats were gone, the smaller factions wouldn’t pose much of a problem, and the Great Xia Dynasty could suppress them.
“Gu Lao, you stay here and watch over these seven idiots. Don’t let them die,” Su Yang instructed.
“Understood.”
Gu Xiu’s mouth twitched. Seven Heaven Deviant Stage idiots…
Seeing Gu Xiu nod, Su Yang transformed into a streak of Sword Intent and quickly left the area.

Today was the annual Demon Heaven Meeting for rogue cultivators.
Famous rogue sects from all over the world had sent representatives to attend. “Gu Tong, your two arms are quite interesting, even whiter than your face.”
“Heh, if you want to die, I can grant your wish.”
“Don’t be so fierce; I’m just joking.”
“By the way, isn’t it your Evil Sacred Sect’s turn to harass the Northern Wilderness this year?”
“But didn’t your Evil Sacred Sect get annihilated by the Great Xia Sword Immortal? What are you planning to do?”
“Hmph, you don’t need to worry about that. If you want to go to the Northern Wilderness, I can use the Demon Heaven Token for you.”
The Demon Heaven Meeting was always noisy, with a group of unruly individuals who refrained from fighting, at least until it was necessary. Fortunately, everyone here was familiar with the process after attending year after year.
Soon, the Demon Heaven Meeting began as usual.
To participate in the Demon Heaven Meeting, one had to be at the Heaven Deviant Stage. The entire meeting consisted of seventeen rogue cultivators, representing seventeen rogue sects.
From their discussions, it was clear that their main focus was on how to cause trouble for the Great Xia Dynasty, restraining the top powers of the Great Xia Dynasty so that they could act freely.
For example, they planned to stir up trouble on the Northern Wilderness border, causing more problems for the Northern Wilderness Army defending against demonic beasts.
Or they might release some sealed evil spirits in the Black Scale Province.
Or manipulate the common people into worshiping their rogue sects…
Various methods were discussed to weaken the Great Xia Dynasty’s power and hinder their ability to deal with the rogue cultivators.
As they fervently discussed these matters, a figure suddenly appeared in the
hall.
“Hello, everyone.”
The appearance of this figure caused the air to freeze.
Many rogue cultivators squinted their eyes, while only Gu Tong’s body shivered, and he turned to run.
“Gu Tong, why run so fast?” Su Yang looked over, and Gu Tong’s body froze in place, unable to move.
In reality, he was being suppressed by Su Yang’s Sword Intent, unable to move.
Gu Tong struggled to break free, but he couldn’t move at all, leaving him with a bitter expression.
In his previous escapes, he had sensed that something was amiss. Everything seemed too convenient, like Su Yang had allowed him to escape.
So, when the hidden old devils had come looking for him recently, asking for information about Su Yang, he had desperately steered them towards the idea of eliminating Su Yang.
Suddenly, whether it was right or wrong, it didn’t matter anymore. Those hidden old devils were most likely all dead now.
“Great Xia Sword Immortal, can you spare me?” Gu Tong’s words caused chaos in the room.
“Great Xia Sword Immortal? How did he find his way here?”
“Isn’t he wreaking havoc in Qingzhou recently, cutting down twelve Heaven Deviant Stage cultivators?”
These people were well-informed about Su Yang, but they could never grasp his true strength, as it was a realm they had never seen before.
Just as these rogue cultivators were about to resist, they suddenly found that they couldn’t move, completely immobilized. Watching Su Yang approach, they panicked.
“What are you going to do?”
Su Yang ignored them and imprinted the Sword Slave Imprint into their minds, allowing them to maintain their consciousness but under his control, obeying his commands and unable to do anything harmful to him. “Go back and gather all the disciples of your sects.”
“Yes, Master.”
The scene in the Demon Heaven Meeting hall was eerie.
With this move, Su Yang effectively controlled all the leaders of the rogue sects.
Finally, Su Yang looked at Gu Tong. He no longer had any value and was in the same category as Zhang Jue from the Divine Spirit Sect—no longer useful since their rogue sects had been annihilated.
Su Yang erased both of them from existence with a thought, leaving behind only floating storage rings.
