#522 - Chapter 530: Supreme God Brothers
The Sect Master of North Mountain was the closest existence to the Supreme God in the entire North Mountain Holy Sect.
His divine might was vast and boundless.
"The Young Sect Master was the Sect Master's only child, embodying all his hopes."
"Now that he has been killed by Jiang Ning, the Sect Master will definitely not let it go."
"Alas, the heavens are jealous of my North Mountain Holy Sect! Two geniuses are about to perish."
Seeing the Sect Master of North Mountain take action, everyone sighed.
Faced with the Sect Master's boundless divine might, no one dared to step forward to stop him.
Jiang Ning coldly watched the Sect Master of North Mountain, who was approaching with terrifying divine might.
He clenched his fists, preparing to kill him with a single punch.
Without needing to use divine power, he could kill him with the physical strength of his Indestructible Body of Myriad Tribulations.
Suddenly, a powerful, soaring divine might also erupted from Heavenly Punishment Peak.
A vast voice echoed throughout the starry sky.
"Life and death on the battlefield are determined by fate; this is the rule set by the Ancestor."
"Sect Master, even you cannot violate it."
The Venerable Heavenly Punishment had taken action.
Rumble~
The entire starfield was trembling.
The battle between two beings close to the Supreme God was terrifying to the extreme.
Everyone felt palpitations and turned pale with fright.
"The Great Elder is fighting the Sect Master."
Everyone exclaimed in shock.
Jiang Ning relaxed his fists.
It was best to conceal his strength as much as possible.
Playing the pig to eat the tiger was the safest choice.
This way, he could lower the guard of enemies in the dark and catch them off guard.
Rumble~
The power of a peak Universe Venerable God was too strong.
The entire starry sky was trembling.
"Heavenly Punishment, how dare you stop me from avenging my son? Do you want to be locked in an endless feud with my sect?"
The Sect Master of North Mountain roared angrily.
"Sect Master, Jiang Ning cannot be killed," Venerable Heavenly Punishment said calmly.
Although there was a slight difference in strength between him and the Sect Master, it was negligible.
He could still manage to stop the Sect Master of North Mountain.
"As long as I am here today, the madman who killed my son will die."
"No one can save him."
"If you overestimate yourself and insist on standing up for him, don't blame me for being ruthless."
The Sect Master of North Mountain shouted angrily.
Venerable Heavenly Punishment said firmly, "As long as I am here today, you can forget about harming Jiang Ning."
"You're courting death!"
The Sect Master of North Mountain was furious, and the entire starry sky trembled violently.
A golden light soared into the sky from the Sect Master of North Mountain.
It radiated immense pressure, as if it would crush the entire world.
"The North... North Mountain Seal, the treasure that protects my North Mountain Holy Sect."
"The Sect Master actually used the North Mountain Seal!"
Everyone turned pale and exclaimed in shock.
The North Mountain Seal, which contained the luck of the entire North Mountain Holy Sect, was extremely powerful, no less than a Supreme Divine Artifact.
It was the treasure that protected the North Mountain Holy Sect.
"Zhou Dian, have you gone mad?"
"The North Mountain Seal can only be used when the North Mountain Holy Sect is facing a life-or-death crisis."
"How dare you use the North Mountain Seal now!"
Venerable Heavenly Punishment's expression changed drastically.
He could not possibly contend against the Sect Master wielding the North Mountain Seal.
"Suppress!"
Zhou Tianyi's death was too great a blow to the Sect Master of North Mountain.
His mind was currently consumed by madness.
He no longer cared about the sect's rules.
Just now, Jiang Ning's speed in killing Zhou Tianyi was too fast.
Even though he had been watching from the shadows, he had been unable to save him in time.
"Crap."
"Grandpa is in danger."
Seeing the North Mountain Seal suppress Venerable Heavenly Punishment, Jiang Ning's expression changed slightly.
He prepared to take action and block the North Mountain Seal for him.
However, at that moment, the stars in the entire North Mountain Starfield trembled.
Countless starlight converged, creating a huge spatial wormhole.
The North Mountain Seal, which was suppressing Venerable Heavenly Punishment, was also suspended motionless in the air by a powerful energy.
"Zhou Dian, how dare you move the North Mountain Seal? You have a lot of nerve!"
A majestic voice rang out.
A thin old man walked out of the spatial wormhole barefoot.
"Ancestor!"
"It's the North Mountain Ancestor."
"Greetings, Ancestor!"
"Greetings, Ancestor!"
With the appearance of the North Mountain Ancestor, all the elders and disciples of the North Mountain Holy Sect knelt on the ground.
The North Mountain Ancestor was the god of the North Mountain Holy Sect, their only faith.
Their respect was extreme, and their eyes revealed fervent fanaticism.
Jiang Ning was familiar with the North Mountain Ancestor, as he had met him before.
It seemed that he had guessed that he was the strongest human genius in the North Mountain Holy Sect.
That was why he had hurriedly appeared to stop the Sect Master of North Mountain.
Jiang Ning did not care about this.
So what if he was exposed?
Although this would attract assassinations from other races, who would desperately want to kill him immediately,
there were also advantages.
He would be able to obtain the full support of the human race.
This would save Jiang Ning from having to search for resources himself.
As long as Jiang Ning did not casually leave the human territory,
with his own strength and the power of the human race, it would be difficult for him to fall.
"Greetings, Ancestor."
Venerable Heavenly Punishment breathed a sigh of relief at the appearance of the North Mountain Ancestor.
He could not possibly contend against the North Mountain Seal, which contained condensed luck.
"Master."
"He killed your grand-disciple. Why are you stopping me from taking revenge?"
The Sect Master of North Mountain was filled with unwillingness.
"Why?"
"Haven't you guessed it?"
"Now that you've guessed it, you still dare to take action? Are you not putting the Ancestral City of the Human Race in your eyes?"
"Your son entered the life-and-death battlefield fairly with him. Being killed is a matter of course. What reason do you have to take revenge?"
"Considering that you are my disciple, I will spare your life this time."
"Go down and reflect. The position of Sect Master will be temporarily managed by Heavenly Punishment."
The North Mountain Ancestor waved his hand.
His tone was filled with unquestionable authority.
"Yes, Master."
The Sect Master of North Mountain gritted his teeth.
Although he was extremely unwilling in his heart,
he would not dare to disobey the words of the North Mountain Ancestor even if he had ten thousand times the courage.
Whoosh!
He turned into a stream of light and flew into the forbidden area to reflect on his actions.
"Hahaha, Jiang Ning, we meet again!"
The North Mountain Ancestor smiled at Jiang Ning.
"Greetings, Ancestor."
Jiang Ning saluted.
"You don't need to be so formal. In a while, we will be equals."
"Young friend Jiang Ning, just call me Brother North Mountain."
The North Mountain Ancestor smiled.
The rules of the Ancestral City of the Human Race state that all core members are addressed as brothers.
Of course, this excludes the founders of the Four Great Holy Lands of the Universe.
Now that Jiang Ning has successfully broken through to the Universe God realm,
he will definitely be promoted to a core member with exceptional status in a while, and his status will be equal to theirs.
"What?"
"The Ancestor... the Ancestor is addressing Jiang Ning as a brother?"
The people of the North Mountain Holy Sect were greatly shocked and found it unbelievable.
Each and every one of them looked at Jiang Ning with eyes full of envy, jealousy, and hatred.
Heavens!
To be able to address the Supreme God Ancestor as a brother, Jiang Ning's status in the North Mountain Holy Sect in the future will be even higher than that of the Sect Master.
Each and every one of them will have to give Jiang Ning a great salute when they see him.
"Ning'er, congratulations in advance."
Venerable Heavenly Punishment also understood what this meant and congratulated him with a smile.
"Ancestor, haven't I received an invitation yet?" Jiang Ning smiled.
He also understood what this meant.
The improvement in status meant more resources.
This was the reason why Jiang Ning was willing to expose his strength.
"Haha, it's only a matter of time. Don't be so polite," the North Mountain Ancestor laughed.
"Brother North Mountain."
It was difficult to refuse such kindness, so Jiang Ning had no choice but to address the North Mountain Ancestor as a brother.
