331: Resolving the forbidden area

Ji Ping'an opened his eyes amidst the expectant gazes of all his clansmen.

"How was it?" Ji Wu asked.

"Is there anything I can't solve once I make a move?" Ji Ping'an said smugly.

"I think you're asking for a beating!" Ji Wu gave Ji Ping'an a rap on the head. "How dare you speak to your father like that?"

"Old Ancestor, fellow clansmen, those deceased clansmen will be arranged to reincarnate in the Desolate World, as members of the Tree Spirit Clan. The Tree Spirit Clan's talent is higher than that of the Human Race, although they can only take human form after Undergoing Tribulation to become a Saint," Ji Ping'an said.

"We won't say much in terms of thanks; we will all remember it in our hearts. The Tree Spirit Clan is good; it solves the ethical problem," the Third Ancestor said.

All the clansmen came over and patted Ji Ping'an's shoulder. Great kindness needs no words of thanks; everything was kept in their hearts.

The next day, Old Ancestors from various forces gathered at the Ji Family. They were to discuss matters concerning dealing with the Heavenly Dao. Although they couldn't directly fight the Heavenly Dao, when dealing with an enemy, they didn't necessarily need to engage in close-quarters combat. If you want to do something, I will resolutely oppose it.

Since the Heavenly Dao created these few Forbidden Grounds, then I will eliminate them.

"Our three parties have already had an initial discussion. Of the eight Forbidden Grounds, we are responsible for three, the Demon Race for three, and the Wildlands for two. We are responsible for eliminating the Creation Forbidden Ground, the Space-Time Forbidden Ground, and the Chaos Forbidden Ground," the Third Ancestor was the first to speak.

The other Old Ancestors nodded, indicating no problem. The Wildlands were weaker, so they naturally had to take on less responsibility.

"The Human Race and the Yao Race are each responsible for one and a half. Our Human Race is responsible for the Chaos Forbidden Ground. You Yao Race can choose whether to be responsible for the Power Forbidden Ground, the Creation Forbidden Ground, or the Space-Time Forbidden Ground. We will take down the remaining one together," the Third Ancestor said.

"We'll be responsible for the Creation Forbidden Ground, and then we'll take down the Space-Time Forbidden Ground together," the Demon Phoenix Clan's Old Ancestor said.

"Alright, then we'll go back and prepare. We'll make our move in three days," the Third Ancestor immediately decided. There was nothing to argue about.

"Fellow Old Ancestors, I can absorb the supreme Dao power of those Forbidden Grounds. When we attack, I will be responsible for absorbing the power of the Dao, which will make things much easier for you," Ji Yi said.

"Alright, then we will concentrate our forces and sweep through them one by one. I will notify the Wildlands so that we can reduce losses as much as possible," the Third Ancestor said.

"Good," the Old Ancestors of the other forces agreed. The power of the Dao within was the protective umbrella for the creatures of the Forbidden Ground; it would be best to resolve it.

Three days later, powerhouses above the Great Saint Realm from the Wildlands gathered before the Chaos Forbidden Ground. Without extra words, Ji Yi was led by the Third Ancestor to the center of the Forbidden Ground, then he went full throttle and began to absorb the power of the Great Way of Chaos. The remaining power of the Space-Time Great Dao was also collected by Ji Yi.

The Third Ancestor felt the Dao power suppressing him alleviate, and his Aura burst forth, suppressing the entire Forbidden Ground.

All living beings within the Forbidden Ground that had been transformed by the Dao power felt an impending disaster. Even Great Emperors, their Primordial Spirits trembled wildly, warning them.

"This time, you won't escape death!" The Third Ancestor's Realm was only suppressed to the Late Stage Great Emperor. His gaze swept across, and Great Emperor Vicious Beasts were seen by him one by one.

His figure disappeared, appearing before a Vicious Beast. Without a word, he thrust out a sword, and the Vicious Beast was split by the Sword Qi, plunging thousands of miles into the earth. Before it could react, dozens of Sword Qi descended from the sky, destroying it.

The Third Ancestor waved his hand, collecting the dao crystal, then his figure disappeared again, continuing to search for the next Great Emperor Vicious Beast.

The others also took action. Within a hundred thousand miles, the transformed Vicious Beasts numbered in the billions. Even if ninety percent of the Vicious Beasts exploded and died during the transformation process, there were still over a hundred million Vicious Beasts remaining.

While they haven't scattered yet, annihilate them all. Otherwise, once these beings scatter, the Heavenly Realm will truly become a place riddled with crises.

The other seven Forbidden Grounds were also surrounded; as soon as a Vicious Beast emerged, it would be killed by those waiting outside.

It took half a year to clear the Chaos Forbidden Ground.

Next, Ji Yi went to each location one by one, and each Forbidden Ground was cleared, taking a total of four years.

Because Ji Yi absorbed so much supreme Dao power, his Realm improved again. His Primordial Spirit cultivation had reached the Quasi-Emperor Sixth Heaven, and his Physical Body cultivation had reached the Quasi-Emperor Eighth Heaven.

Before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, the Heavenly Realm's sky turned gray, and a sense of oppressive power descended from the sky. Even Heavenly Emperors felt the oppression.

All living beings looked up at the sky, not knowing what madness the Heavenly Dao was up to again, but the warning from their spiritual senses told them that nothing good was certainly going to happen.

"Boom!" A roar echoed for thousands of miles. The momentary brightness caused temporary blindness.

Then came world-ending lightning punishment. Endless lightning fell from the sky, ravaging the land of the Heavenly Realm. Under this lightning punishment, even Great Saint beings could not escape destruction.

The earth cracked into fissures hundreds of miles wide and thousands of miles long. Thick gray mist emerged from the fissures, evil, hideous, ominous.

"Kill!" Roars echoed, and countless figures appeared in the gray mist. Each of them was dozens of meters tall, with the tallest even reaching hundreds or thousands of meters. The taller the body, the stronger the power.

If Ji Yi and Ji Ziyan, who had dreamt back to ancient times in the Ancient Mystic Realm, were here, they would recognize that these figures were clearly the Ancient God Clan. However, their ancient yellow skin had now turned jet black, and their ancient Aura had become evil.

Dark black patterns covered their bodies, and from these black patterns, gray mist continuously emanated.

As the mist spread, flowers, plants, and trees in its path were all stained gray. Then, dark black patterns also appeared on the surfaces of these creatures, and an evil Aura emanated from them. They had been transformed by the evil Qi.

Looking down from the Heavenly Realm's sky, the evil gray mist had already covered an area equivalent to ten Manghuang Domains, and it was continuously expanding. Endless evil Ancient Gods crawled out from underground; no one could count their exact number.

And coincidentally, around the Manghuang Domain, the Wildlands, and the Demon Domain, the ground all broke open with fissures. After those evil gods crawled out, they directly attacked the Three Regions, their objective very clear.

The Ji Family, located in the center of the Manghuang Domain, had not yet noticed, but forces whose territories were on the outskirts of the Manghuang Domain were stunned by the sudden attack of the evil gods.

"Flee!" The Spirit Monkey Clan's Great Emperor Old Ancestor roared. He was responsible for covering the retreat, allowing the other Old Ancestors to lead their clansmen to flee towards the central area.

"Old Ancestor!" Watching their Old Ancestor being entangled by several Great Emperor evil gods, the Spirit Monkey Clan's clansmen were extremely worried, but they had no choice but to leave. The evil gods were truly too strong; they would only drag their Old Ancestor down.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz..." The Ji Family clansmen's Na Rings vibrated non-stop. They took out their communication stones; many people from other forces were requesting their aid.
