272: Chapter 272 Ancient Evergreen Ouyang Jin

Chapter 272: Gu Changqing, Ouyang Jin

This person was Gu Changqing, the Saint of Lingxiao Ancient Gate, a Three-Revolution Great Emperor Peak Cultivator.

"Have you heard? The picture album that's been making waves in the North Region was actually drawn by the Saintess of the Heavenly Dao Alliance in Yong Province. Do you think the destruction of the Corpse Yin Sect is related to the Heavenly Dao Alliance?"

"Although I'm reluctant to admit it, to be able to persuade the Xuantian Merchant Guild to promote it, their own power must be significant. This Heavenly Dao Alliance is definitely not as simple as it appears on the surface."

At this moment, a Quasi-Emperor Peak Cultivator stepped forward and said,

"Are you perhaps misunderstanding the Heavenly Dao Alliance? There's a Heavenly Dao Alliance in Yong Province, and there's also a Heavenly Dao Alliance in Ming Province, and even in Zhen Province."

"Moreover, the Immortal Extermination Emperor Palace, the overlord of Zhen Province, has been destroyed, and it was also the work of the Heavenly Dao Alliance."

Upon hearing this, everyone revealed looks of shock.

"Fellow Daoist, is what you're saying true? The Formation Emperor of Zhen Province's Immortal Extermination Emperor Palace is the foremost expert in Formations in the North Region. How could the Formations he set up be easily broken?"

That Quasi-Emperor said confidently,

"Of course it's true. When the Immortal Extermination Emperor Palace was destroyed, I personally witnessed the entire process. It was truly world-destroying."

Seeing the expectant looks on everyone's faces, even Gu Changqing's gaze was drawn over.

Gu Changqing directly took out an Emperor Heart Pill and handed it to that Quasi-Emperor Cultivator.

"Describe the events in more detail, and this Emperor Heart Pill will be yours."

Seeing this Emperor Heart Pill, which emitted a faint pill aura, the eyes of this Quasi-Emperor Peak Cultivator gleamed, revealing a look of ecstasy.

He never expected that merely describing what he had seen and heard would grant him such an Opportunity.

The Emperor Heart Pill—with his own abilities, he absolutely couldn't obtain it.

The other Quasi-Emperor Cultivators also showed covetous expressions. That was an Emperor Heart Pill, an Emperor Heart Pill that could allow a Quasi-Emperor Cultivator to Breakthrough to a Great Emperor Cultivator.

Then, that Quasi-Emperor Cultivator suppressed the ecstasy in his heart.

"The Immortal Extermination Emperor Palace was destroyed in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn."

"At that time, I was working in Zhen Province when I suddenly felt a world-destroying energy spread throughout the Immortal Extermination Emperor Palace."

"I curiously glanced over and saw Heavenly Dao Alliance Cultivators riding on a warship. There were a total of 400,000 Cultivators on board, and the lowest cultivation level was Quasi-Emperor. Moreover, I couldn't discern the cultivation of several hundred people, so I guessed they must be Great Emperor.

"Then, I only saw a female Cultivator take out a sword and point it at the sky. Immediately after, the sky changed colors, as if thunder was descending. Because the thunder was too terrifying, my Divine Sense dared not investigate."

"When I looked again, I saw a scene that I will never forget for the rest of my life: I saw a middle-aged man strike with his palm, and everyone in the Immortal Extermination Emperor Palace was annihilated. The Sect turned into a ruin, with no one left alive."

After these words were spoken, everyone present was instantly speechless, and Gu Changqing's heart was also filled with shock. Then, he left without looking back, heading towards the Heavenly Dao Alliance.

...

The news of the North Region Law Enforcement Hall's destruction had already reached Central Province, completely stirring up the entire Central Province.

In the Central Province Law Enforcement Hall, inside a magnificent Immortal Cave, a young man was in seclusion.

At this moment, an Elder with a cultivation of Nine Revolution Great Emperor Early Stage, approximately sixty years old, rushed to the young man's Immortal Cave and excitedly said,

"Saint, good news, great news!"

The young man slightly opened his eyes, and a Five Revolution Great Emperor Peak aura immediately spread out.

The Middle Domain Law Enforcement Hall had three Saints and one Saintess. The three Saints were named Azure Dragon, White Tiger, and Xuanwu, while the Saintess was named Vermilion Bird.

And the Azure Dragon Saint held the highest position, with a cultivation of Eight Revolution Great Emperor Peak, about to step into Nine Revolution Great Emperor.

The White Tiger Holy Son had a cultivation of Eight Revolution Great Emperor Early Stage, and the Xuanwu Saint had the lowest cultivation, only Five Revolution Great Emperor Peak.

And this young man in front of him was the Xuanwu Saint, Ouyang Jin. Although he was only Five Revolution Great Emperor Peak, his battle achievements were incredibly brilliant, because his foundation was immensely profound. He had once slain more than one Six Revolution Great Emperor Peak existence.

That's why he was listed as the Xuanwu Saint.

At this moment, Ouyang Jin opened his eyes and said indifferently,

"Xu Elder, what news could make you so happy?"

Xu Elder excitedly said,

"Saint, our Xuanwu Pavilion's spy at the Xuantian Merchant Guild reported that Shang Lingjun's daughter, Shang Luoyun, is currently in the North Region, and she has even obtained Enlightenment Tea Leaves."

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Jin said angrily,

"You're saying Shang Luoyun isn't dead, but is in the North Region's Xuantian Merchant Guild? Shang Lingjun, you actually dared to deceive me!"

"Saint, don't be angry yet. The good news isn't just this. The North Region's Xuantian Merchant Guild has obtained a great treasure, Enlightenment Tea Leaves."

Ouyang Jin asked, puzzled,

"Xu Elder, although Enlightenment Tea Leaves are rare, our North Region Law Enforcement Hall still has some in stock. It shouldn't be enough for you to call it a great treasure, right?"

Xu Elder heard this, then said word by word,

"Saint, those Enlightenment Tea Leaves are green."

After Ouyang Jin understood these words, he suddenly stood up, revealing a look of shock.

"Xu Elder, do you mean that a living Enlightenment Tea Tree has appeared in the North Region?"

Xu Elder nodded, and Ouyang Jin gasped.

If it was a living Enlightenment Tea Tree, its value would be far greater than anything the Xuantian Merchant Guild possessed, because as long as one had an Enlightenment Tea Tree, their cultivation could skyrocket. Moreover, it could cultivate and win over many powerful individuals to serve him.

Ouyang Jin showed a greedy expression and secretly thought,

"With this Enlightenment Tea Tree, I'll be able to Breakthrough to Nine Revolution Great Emperor at the fastest speed. Then, who will dare to contend with me for the Hall Master position?"

"And Shang Luoyun, I want her. The Xuantian Merchant Guild, I want it too."

"Shang Lingjun, you deceived me. This debt, once I get your daughter, I will repay it a hundredfold, a thousandfold."

Seeing Ouyang Jin's expression, Xu Elder secretly thought, 'Not good.'

"Saint, if we report this matter to the Hall Master, it will be a great merit. At that time, the Hall Master will definitely bestow another Enlightenment Tea Leaf, and then, Saint, you will have hope of Breakthrough to Six Revolution Great Emperor."

Ouyang Jin shook his head.

"Xu Elder, you absolutely cannot reveal this matter to anyone. This is an Opportunity that belongs to my Xuanwu Pavilion."

"Don't worry, Xu Elder. With these things, I will definitely advance to Nine Revolution Great Emperor at the fastest speed. At that time, who else but me will be the Hall Master?"

"Moreover, I can promise you that once I succeed as Hall Master, I can restore you to the position of core Elder in the Law Enforcement Hall."

Upon hearing this, Xu Elder's hand clearly trembled with excitement, but he hesitated and said,

"Saint, the North Region Law Enforcement Hall has been destroyed. The North Region might not be as simple as we think. If we rashly enter, there might be danger."

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Jin smiled and said,

"Xu Elder, you can rest assured about that."

After speaking, he clapped his hands, and instantly dozens of Great Emperor appeared from around him. There were One Revolution Great Emperor level ones, and also Eight Revolution Great Emperor level ones, but they all had one common characteristic: their expressions were dull, as if they were controlled.

Then everyone knelt down and woodenly shouted,

"Greetings, Xuanwu Saint."

Xu Elder, who was standing by, showed a look of shock at this scene.
