774: Chapters 542-543 Companions Emerge from Seclusion_3
As for Yan Qingying, although she also possesses twelve All-Heaven Netherworld Banners, she can’t plant them all behind her at the same time—a maximum of nine is allowed.
This is a clan rule that no one dares to violate, because doing so is a symbol of sedition!
Clothed in a black Chaos Armor with a black and white Taiji Shield covering him, holding the Bane of Immortals Sword, and with the All-Heaven Netherworld Banner on his back, along with a dark cape forged from the Chaos Cauldron, having the property to devour anything—this was the appearance of Xin Yun and the Death Legion!
The Chaos Armor was not heavy armor but a fully covering light plate armor, even encompassing the eyes and wings.
Purely based on appearance, one couldn’t distinguish one from another; the only thing that could indicate rank was the number of banners planted on their backs!
At present, the entire Death Legion was comprised solely of soldiers with not a single officer among them.
The only officer was Xin Yun himself, the sect leader of the Sky-opening Sect and also the commander of the Death Legion.
He carried two All-Heaven Netherworld Banners on his back, while everyone else was uniformly the same, each carrying three flags.
It might seem a bit inconvenient, but for Xin Yun, this troop either did not move an inch, or once it did, it was surely under his command.
In this world, Xin Yun was the only one who could mobilize this force, and all members of the troop were accountable only to him.
As for others, they had no capability whatsoever to bind them—it could be said that…
this was Xin Yun’s most fundamental armed force.
During peacetime, the members of the Death Legion either engaged in isolated intensive training or gathered together to study various battle strategies.
Whenever they needed to practice in real combat, Xin Yun was sure to be present because…
Xin Yun wasn’t a deity, he too required practical training.
Outside of public knowledge, the Death Legion was rapidly growing.
Although it was still a newly established team, its strength was undeniable.
Of course, Xin Yun wasn’t going to permanently refrain from assigning officers to the Death Legion.
However…
that was something they had to earn themselves.
Whoever was first to carry four banners would become an officer.
Within the Death Legion, a merit system was in place— whoever had higher merits became the leader. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
Besides this, there were absolutely no shortcuts, even Xin Yun would never break this rule.
The simple yet abundant life continued.
The Five Directions Heavenly Emperor was still engaged in seclusion, striving to reach the Diamond Order as soon as possible.
Xin Yun, however, was different.
His only task was to continuously deepen his cultivation base.
With the help of the Four Great Sword Spirits, he no longer needed to worry about being overtaken by others.
As time marched forward, the banking plan flourished by the day.
A vast amount of Gold was collected daily.
Thousands of cities under the control of the Sky-opening Sect were like an enormous Cornucopia, continuously bringing Xin Yun unimaginable wealth.
Days turned to months, months to years and, in the blink of an eye…
another three years had passed.
In these three years, the warriors of the Death Legion had fully familiarized themselves with their powers.
Their proficiency with the four great treasures also became increasingly adept, especially in refining their own energy—though they had only made modest gains and there was still a lengthy effort ahead, they had at least made a start.
Three years later, Yi Luo Xiang and the others also left their seclusion one after another.
Through years of effort, they finally reached the Diamond Order.
However…
compared to Xin Yun, they had been left far behind, so far that they couldn’t even catch a glimpse of him.
When Yi Luo Xiang, Yan Qingying, Ming Xuan, Po Kong, and Luo Fu saw Xin Yun as he was now, they were all stunned.
They had only parted for a few years, yet today’s Xin Yun had already left them far behind in the dust.
Although everyone had reached Diamond One Star, Xin Yun had become much more than just a Diamond Ten Stars.
On top of Diamond Ten Stars, Xin Yun had accumulated a vast amount of energy, and due to his profound cultivation base, he naturally radiated an oppressive energy aura that nearly suffocated Yi Luo Xiang and the others.
In the small conference room, Xin Yun looked at his companions with a smile.
Although they had never really parted ways, in fact, they had barely seen each other in the past six years, not even for a total of an hour, especially in the last three years where they hadn’t seen each other at all.
Because of this…
everyone had the feeling of an unexpected reunion with an old friend after many years.
Looking around the room, Xin Yun smiled and said, “Very good…
Now that everyone has reached the Diamond Order, it’s time…
to get some Diamond Fruits for you to try.”
“What?
Diamond Fruits!” Hearing Xin Yun’s words, everyone cried out in astonishment.
The Diamond Fruit was a prize for the Diamond Hegemony Contest, only awarded to the top ten super Martial Artists!
The problem now was that Yi Luo Xiang, Yan Qingying, Ming Xuan, and Po Kong had just reached the Diamond Order.
Even Po Kong, who was slightly more powerful, had only achieved Diamond Two Stars.
With such strength participating in the Diamond Hegemony Contest, they were certain to lose without any chance of winning!
The Diamond Ten Stars experts were unimaginable for ordinary people.
As for Luo Fu, he had cultivated up to Diamond Five Stars now, but even if he participated, it wouldn’t make much of a difference.
He might win a few matches, but forget about the top ten, his name would probably not even be found within the top ten thousand!
For a Diamond Five Stars to defeat a Diamond Ten Stars, the difficulty was too great, nearly impossible.
Seeing the disbelief on his friends’ faces, Xin Yun smiled calmly and said, “Of course, you might not be ready now, but don’t worry.
You haven’t reached Diamond Ten Stars, but I have.
Thus…
I can participate in the first stage of the contest.
As long as I win the championship, I can get the Diamond Fruit!” (To be continued, for the continuation of the story, please visit www.qidian.com.
