202: Chapter Six major sects besiege Guangmingding

"Shall we step in to help?" Saying this, the Black-robed Golden Core Old Ancestor turned back and smiled at the other Golden Cores behind him, his expression full of mockery.

"Hahaha..."

Everyone echoed with laughter.

"There's no need for you to trouble yourselves with the Chen Family's affairs." Chen Yinlong continued, neither humble nor arrogant, "It seems you are all unwelcome guests. However, I'll offer one more piece of advice: think clearly, don't make a mistake, otherwise, if you regret it later, don't blame me for not warning you."

"Hahaha, Chen Yinlong, you, a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, dare to threaten us?" The Black-robed Old Ancestor scoffed.

"If your Chen Family Old Ancestor Chen Qing Yuan were still alive, we naturally wouldn't dare to come to your door. However, your Old Ancestor hasn't condensed an Nascent Soul for a long time; he's probably ascended long ago, hasn't he?"

"Exactly! Your Chen Family disciples are truly unfilial. Fellow Daoist Qing Yuan has passed away for a long time, yet you secretly conceal the news. We heard about this and specially came to offer condolences. How much longer does your Chen Family intend to hide it?" Another Golden Core Cultivator said mockingly.

As they spoke, these Golden Core Cultivators showed no restraint, releasing powerful Golden Core pressure as they walked forward.

Chen Yinlong was targeted by several Auras and was instantly forced back several steps by these powerful presences.

"Hmph, it seems you are determined to oppose my Chen Family?"

Just then, Chen Shan Shi, who had recently formed his Golden Core, walked up from behind and slapped Chen Yinlong on the shoulder, dissolving the pressure from several Golden Cores for him.

"Uncle-Clan Mountain Shi." Chen Yinlong saw the person beside him, took a step back, and yielded the lead to Chen Shan Shi.

At this moment, Chen Shan Shi's face held a slight mocking smile. "Zhang Teng, Lin Quan, it's been decades since we last met, I hope you've been well!"

"Chen Shan Shi, so you were the one who underwent the Golden Core Lightning Tribulation some time ago?" The Black-robed Golden Core Old Ancestor narrowed his eyes. He and Chen Shan Shi were from the same era. He had broken through to the Golden Core Realm long ago and was now even a mid-Golden Core Cultivator.

He hadn't expected that the once famous Formation Genius among their peers, the dignified talented disciple of the Chen Family, had only just managed to form his Golden Core now.

"It seems you've come today wanting to drive my Chen Family out of the Qingya Mountain Range!" Chen Shan Shi asked back with a smile, without a hint of fear in his expression.

Chen Shan Shi's calm demeanor made Zhang Teng and Lin Quan feel slightly uneasy.

At this moment, a Golden Core Cultivator who was with them stepped forward two steps and said with a scoff.

"Chen Shan Shi, what right do you, a newly formed Golden Core Cultivator, have to put on airs in front of us? To be honest, we've naturally taken a fancy to your Chen Family's Spiritual Vein and your Chen Family's property. If you know what's good for you, hand over all the resources your Chen Family has plundered since occupying the Qingya Mountain Range, lead your Chen Family members out of the Qingya Mountain Range, and considering you are also a Golden Core Cultivator, your Chen Family only needs to make a Dao Heart vow, and we won't wipe out your Chen Family."

Hearing this, Chen Qing Yuan's expression turned cold, and he said mockingly.

"Hehe, who are you, to dare speak so boastfully? You, an unknown nobody, dare to spout nonsense in front of me?"

"And you want to wipe out my Chen Family? Hahaha, you truly don't know the immensity of heaven and earth. Any Tom, Dick, or Harry thinks they can covet my Chen Family?"

"You..."

Seeing Chen Shan Shi was so unappreciative, that early-Golden Core Cultivator took out a whip-shaped Magic Treasure from his storage bag, ready to attack.

However, before he could make a move, the Black-robed Golden Core Zhang Teng reached out and stopped him.

"Fellow Daoist Jin Xiu, calm down. We still can't be sure if Chen Qing Yuan has truly ascended. It's inappropriate to act now. Let's wait a bit longer."

Hearing this, Jin Xiu couldn't help but laugh mockingly: "Hahaha, Fellow Daoist Zhang Teng, we've already forced our way to their doorstep today, and you still want to test the Chen Family's reaction? Does that mean if Chen Family Old Ancestor Chen Qing Yuan is still alive, we'll back down?"

"If we attack now, if Chen Qing Yuan is alive, he will naturally show himself. With the two Seniors from the Li Family present, and with our combined strength, we're not afraid of Chen Qing Yuan. Why be so cautious?"

Zhang Teng frowned. Although Jin Xiu's words made some sense, if Chen Qing Yuan were still alive, and they pushed too hard, Chen Qing Yuan might seize an opportunity to retaliate against one or two of them before he died. How could they stop that?

The more active one was now, the higher the possibility of being targeted. After all, these people were only temporarily allied due to common interests and couldn't stay together forever.

So naturally, he wasn't willing to be the one who stuck his neck out.

Zhang Teng immediately transmitted his voice in a low tone: "Fellow Daoist Jin Xiu, we can't be reckless in this matter. Chen Qing Yuan is, after all, a peak Golden Core Cultivator. If he is still alive now, and we push too hard, he won't be able to withstand his retaliation afterwards. Let's stick to the original plan and just force Chen Qing Yuan out. The two Seniors from the Li Family will naturally step forward then."

"Even if he's alive, there's at least room for maneuver."

"Besides, in this siege of the Chen Family, most of the benefits will be obtained by the Li Family. What we can get is limited, so why be so eager?"

Jin Xiu snorted disdainfully, "Fellow Daoist Zhang Teng, you are too cautious. I think the Chen Family is just putting up a brave front. If Chen Qing Yuan were still alive, how could he let us show off our strength here? If we don't seize this opportunity to uproot the Chen Family now, when will we?"

"Even if he's alive, his lifespan is nearing its end. If we don't take this opportunity to completely eliminate him today, given Chen Qing Yuan's overbearing nature, are we supposed to wait for him to retaliate against us?"

"Furthermore, the Li Family said beforehand that all the Chen Family's wealth would be distributed among us, and the Li Family only wants this Qingya Mountain Range."

The other Golden Core Cultivators also echoed Jin Xiu's words, feeling that they should act immediately.

Zhang Teng felt some hesitation in his heart, but Jin Xiu's words also made sense, leaving him in a dilemma for a moment.

Meanwhile, Chen Shan Shi scoffed, "Hmph, you bunch of rats, arguing endlessly here, you're just a mob. How could my Chen Family be afraid of you? Even if you join forces today, you might not gain any advantage. If you want to fight, then fight. What are you babbling and waiting for?"

Zhang Teng's eyes turned cold upon hearing this, "Chen Shan Shi, stop being stubborn. Since we are here today, we don't plan to leave empty-handed. If your Chen Family knows what's good for it, obediently hand over the resources and withdraw from the Qingya Mountain Range. Otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite."

Chen Shan Shi crossed his arms, "You want my Chen Family's resources and the Qingya Mountain Range? You're not qualified. If you have the guts, come at me and see if you can flatten my Chen Family, or if my Chen Family will capture all you villains in one go."

As Chen Shan Shi spoke, he threw a Formation Plate forward, and several Formation Flags appeared out of thin air, embedding themselves around Zhang Teng and the others. A peak second-tier grand Formation was casually set up by Chen Shan Shi.

"Hmph, a second-tier Formation, and you think it can trap us?"

The atmosphere between the two sides grew increasingly tense, and a great battle was on the verge of breaking out.

Just at this moment, a long and resonant bell sound suddenly came from the sky. The sound was clear and pleasant to the ear, yet it carried an invisible majesty that made everyone involuntarily quiet down.

Everyone looked up towards the sky and saw a colossal ship flying from a distance.

"It's the Hanhai Li Family's cross-sea spiritual boat. The two Old Ancestors of the Li Family have arrived."
