815: Departure, a New Landscape for Mangzhou

"Kill!"

The people of the Qianfan Sect, Cold Dual Sect, and Ice Snow Sect had already seen many around them die, their eyes bloodshot with rage.

At this moment, they pursued and slaughtered the people of the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls, causing heads to roll in an instant!

On the scene, that Vicious Beast did not move; its gaze watched the distant battlefield, its eyes flashing with a glint of intelligence.

With a sway of its body, it headed straight for the Ice Snow Sect's Forbidden Ground!

At the Forbidden Ground, Ji Wuchang appeared and was currently activating the Formation.

For him, this journey to Mang Province had come to a perfect end, and he had gained enormous rewards.

Particularly that Ten Thousand Soul Banner, which he had coveted greatly, was now in his hands.

He knew very well that the battle for Mang Province was not over; having suffered such a great loss, the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls would not let it go, and their next move would surely be thunderous!

Although the four top powers of Mang Province were not weak, even if they joined forces, they could not be a match for the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls.

Coupled with the fact that the Dark Night Gate was not of one mind with them and had deeper schemes, their strength was naturally even more fragmented.

Ji Wuchang had a premonition that the Dark Night Gate would leave Mang Province, and Supreme Xiong Long likely already had a retreat planned.

This man's schemes were deep; from the very beginning, he might have known about the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls' intention to occupy Mang Province.

Now that he was about to undergo his final reincarnation, he needed to pick a candidate with Heaven-Defying Aptitude so that his cultivation would skyrocket in the future.

Wengu Qingyang had likely been his locked target for a long time, including the Ten Thousand Soul Banner in the other's hands.

But he knew well that if he exposed himself too early, it would be difficult to succeed, so he had remained patient until the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls had played all its trump cards.

Such an old monster was indeed terrifying; if Ji Wuchang hadn't intervened and left the Spark Organization in shambles, his schemes might have been even more fearsome.

Ji Wuchang thought about it and felt that the outcome for the Qianfan Sect, Ice Snow Sect, and Cold Dual Sect would definitely not be good; the best result would be surrendering to the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls.

But he felt that since things had reached this stage, that step would be difficult to achieve.

Wengu Qingyang had been taken by Supreme Xiong Long, and it would be no easy task for the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls to rescue him.

He suddenly remembered Jinchun telling him that the Spark Organization's headquarters had a Cross-domain Teleportation Formation. Now he understood that this Formation was Supreme Xiong Long's retreat.

This person was quite calculating, having arranged everything long ago.

However, Jinchun had told him that the teleportation Formation could go directly to Luohe Province, which he felt might be incorrect.

Luohe Province was a major province where the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls was even more active.

If he were Supreme Xiong Long, he would surely find a relatively remote province or a place where the Hall of Souls was least active.

Ji Wuchang watched the teleportation Formation lighting up continuously, his eyes bright and his mind incredibly clear as he sorted through everything that had happened in Mang Province.

This trip to Mang Province, though just passing through, was not a waste!

Just then, a figure appeared in the distance and reached the teleportation Formation in an instant.

Ji Wuchang was startled when he saw it; it was actually that Vicious Beast.

At that moment, the Vicious Beast extended its claw and made a grabbing motion toward the Cold Pool.

From within the Cold Pool, icy Qi surged as two stones as white as jade flew out.

Everywhere these two stones passed, even the space itself was frozen solid, showing just how heavy the icy Qi was.

The Vicious Beast opened its mouth and swallowed one of the stones directly into its belly, while the other stone flew toward Ji Wuchang. Its figure swayed as it entered the teleportation Formation.

Ji Wuchang didn't understand the Vicious Beast's intention, but he felt no malice from it.

Seeing the stone arrive before him, he didn't know what to do for a moment.

Just then, the Glazed Ice Fire within his Dantian vibrated and flew out of his body, wrapping around the stone and vanishing instantly.

Ji Wuchang couldn't help but shiver; that stone was simply too cold.

He looked at the Vicious Beast, wanting to ask what it intended to do.

But at that moment, all the lights on the teleportation Formation lit up, and a Void Realm passage appeared.

Before Ji Wuchang could even ask, the man and the beast were swallowed by the Void Realm passage, their bodies vanishing instantly.

As they disappeared, the Void Realm passage slowly closed until it vanished from sight.

With a "crack," a fissure appeared on the teleportation Formation; to use it again, it would need to be repaired.

However, compared to before Ji Yaoyao repaired it, this crack was not difficult to fix.

By the Cold Pool, with the disappearance of those two white stones, the icy Qi here dropped rapidly.

Although icy Qi still welled up from the Cold Pool, it was now less than a tenth of what it had been.

The temperature here no longer had a significant difference compared to the rest of the Ice Snow Sect!

The great battle at the Ice Snow Sect continued, but now it was one-sided as the three Old Ancestors of the Qianfan Sect, Ice Snow Sect, and Cold Dual Sect led their people to hunt down those from the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls.

During this period, another third-layer supreme realm and a first-layer supreme realm from the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls fell.

Only a few in the Celestial Phenomenon Realm escaped; it could be said that they were almost entirely wiped out.

However, the three top powers of the Qianfan Sect, Ice Snow Sect, and Cold Dual Sect also suffered heavy losses.

Of the twenty-eight Celestial Phenomenon Realm Elders of the Ice Snow Sect, only eight survived, with all others falling, including the half-step Supreme Yin Xiaofeng.

The losses for the Qianfan Sect and Cold Dual Sect were relatively smaller, but they were still shaken to their core.

As for the group that had spent a million Low-Grade Spirit Stones to enter the Ice Snow Sect to watch the spectacle, only nineteen survived, with only one in the Celestial Phenomenon Realm remaining.

It could be said that this battle was extremely tragic, the most devastating battle in Mang Province in a thousand years.

The news spread like wildfire through Mang Province, and many people condemned the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls.

However, some more experienced people realized that the sky over Mang Province was about to change.

This battle was not the end, but the beginning.

Just as they predicted, only two days later, a seventh-layer supreme realm expert from the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls descended upon Mang Province.

He first went to the Dark Night Gate, but almost only some Utility Disciples remained there.

With a single palm strike, this person leveled the Dark Night Gate!

He then went to the Qianfan Sect and Cold Dual Sect, finding only some insignificant people, and he leveled those two Sects as well.

Finally, he arrived at the Ice Snow Sect, where everyone from the three major Sects had gathered, as they had not yet decided whether to evacuate.

The battle began, and the Old Ancestors of the three major Sects all died in battle. In the end, only a portion of the people escaped through the Forbidden Ground's teleportation Formation.

But where these people fled to, no one knew.

Subsequently, the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls occupied Mang Province, but they continued to search everywhere within the province.

There was still no news of Wengu Qingyang, and this matter had already alarmed the Hall Master.

The Hall of Ten Thousand Souls' secondary Ten Thousand Soul Banner had disappeared, and it had to be recovered.

Because this secondary banner was separated from the main banner, if one was missing, the main banner would be incomplete and unable to exert the power of a Saint Weapon.

This was absolutely intolerable to the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls. Wengu Qingyang could die, but the secondary Ten Thousand Soul Banner must not be lost!
