106: Attacking the Thirteen Sects (V)

Boom! Boom! Boom…

In the Guquan Great Territory, the Quan Family!

The moment three Divine Venerables of the Quan Family fell, eight chimes rang out from the hall where the soul tablets of all Quan Family members were enshrined, like a funeral bell, striking the hearts of everyone in the Quan Family and drawing their attention. This was not the end; sixteen more chimes followed immediately.

“Three times eight chimes!”

“How is this possible? Who is it!!!”

All the Quan Family powerhouses were shocked, and even Divine Venerables rushed out of their secluded cultivation, roaring skyward, their voices like thunder, shaking people’s hearts.

The Quan Family’s bell chimes, with nine being the highest, representing the Old Ancestor with the highest status. Eight chimes represent a Divine Venerable Old Ancestor. Three such chimes now meant that three Divine Venerables of the Quan Family had fallen.

For a time, the entire Quan Family was enveloped in sorrow. Divine Venerables were their pillars of strength, and the fall of three of them left them deeply anxious.

Soon, high-ranking members appeased the Family members, and in the highest divine hall, a group of high-ranking members gathered again. Compared to before, they were now all seething with rage, like erupting volcanoes.

“It’s Old Fifth, Old Ninth, and Old Tenth! Something happened in the Yunquan Greater Domain. The Xu Family only sent one person, yet he killed Old Fifth and the others. That person is very likely a peak Divine Venerable!”

Sixth Ancestor of the Quan Family said with a grim face.

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Quan Family was furious, like ignited gunpowder barrels.

“Damn the Xu Family! All Old Ancestors, we must avenge our three Old Ancestors and the Elders!”

“Exactly! That Xu Family is already at loggerheads with us. Now is the time to suppress them as soon as possible!”

The high-ranking members of the Quan Family exuded soaring killing intent, as if they wanted to shatter the entire sky.

“This grudge must be avenged! No matter who it is, anyone who dares to kill our Family members must pay the price!”

An old man leaning on a cane forcefully tapped his cane downwards, his aged voice echoing throughout the entire hall.

As soon as this old man spoke, all the high-ranking members showed respect.

This person was Second Ancestor of the Quan Family, an old monster who had lived for about 100,000 years, and also a peak Divine Venerable.

“Second Ancestor, what do you suggest we do?” Third Ancestor of the Quan Family asked.

“Where is Old Eleventh?” Second Ancestor of the Quan Family asked.

Third Ancestor of the Quan Family replied, “Reporting to Second Ancestor, Old Eleventh is Cultivating in the Abyss right now!”

“Send him to Huo Ming Divine Sect to capture that True Dragon. I will flay him and pull out his tendons!” Second Ancestor of the Quan Family’s eyes were filled with rage.

“Yes, I will immediately…”

“Old Ancestor, this is bad!”

Just as Third Ancestor of the Quan Family was about to send a message, a panicked voice came in, followed by a disheveled figure.

“Panicking like this, what kind of decorum is that!”

The Quan Family Head immediately reprimanded him.

If the other party wasn’t an Elder of the Family, he would have already taught him a lesson.

“All Old Ancestors, Huo Ming Divine Sect is… is gone!” The person said in horror.

“What? Say that again!”

Hearing this, the high-ranking members of the Quan Family were shocked. The Quan Family Head even rushed in front of the Elder, lifting him up to question him.

He recognized him; this was the powerhouse he had sent to the Black Fire Great Domain to investigate the situation.

“Huo Ming Divine Sect is gone. The entire sect, hundreds of thousands of Disciples, were all wiped out!” The Elder swallowed, saying in terror.

“How is this possible?”

“Huo Ming Divine Sect has seven Divine Venerables, and even three peak Divine Venerables. Huo Ming Old Ancestor’s strength has even reached the pinnacle of a peak Divine Venerable. Who could have attacked with such power?” Seventh Ancestor of the Quan Family said with some trepidation.

“Old Ancestor, I saw it with my own eyes. That True Dragon from the Xu Family attacked, using only three moves. The first move killed the Nine Fire Divine Venerable of Huo Ming Divine Sect, the second move annihilated Huo Ming Old Ancestor, and the third move wiped out Huo Ming Divine Sect.”

As he spoke, the Elder trembled all over.

The entire place was silent, everyone’s faces filled with shock.

“The Xu Family… is actually so powerful!”

Second Ancestor of the Quan Family’s face was terrifyingly grim. He gripped his cane tightly, his eyes flickering with furious flames.

“The Xu Family must not be allowed to remain!”

The Quan Family Head said through gritted teeth.

“That’s right, we must eliminate this threat as soon as possible!”

The other high-ranking members echoed their agreement.

“But with our current strength, I’m afraid it will be difficult to contend with that True Dragon…” Someone worried.

“Hmph, no need to worry!” Second Ancestor of the Quan Family said coldly, “Our Quan Family has a long Legacy and profound foundation. Why should we fear a mere True Dragon! Now, the most urgent task is to contact Old Eleventh and have him return as soon as possible, and at the same time, notify other forces to return.”

Originally, Second Ancestor of the Quan Family still wanted Old Eleventh to act, but seeing Yun Qian’s combat power, he decisively abandoned that idea.

Even he was no match for Huo Ming Old Ancestor, let alone Old Eleventh, a newly advanced peak Divine Venerable.

On the other side, Xu Qing had already received news from Yun Qian, so he immediately had Xu Ming send powerhouses to take over the Black Fire Great Domain.

On the Shenyi Sect’s side, with his second brother acting and Hai Dagui and the other two present, the outcome was basically already determined.

Shenyi Sect possessed two Great Domains, but after Xu Yuan killed the two Divine Venerables they sent, Shenyi Sect now only had four Divine Venerables, and three of them were Martial Artists below Divine Venerable Perfection.

The only trouble was the Old Ancestor of Shenyi Sect.

But when Huo Ming Divine Sect was destroyed, why did he say such a thing?

When Huo Ming Divine Sect’s Old Ancestor was about to die, he once said: “When the true Divine Continent sends a supreme powerhouse, that will be the time of the Xu Family’s annihilation.”

He didn’t care about the threat in the words, but why did he mention people from the true Divine Continent? Could these words be interpreted as the Hundred Domains Land still not being part of the Nanming Divine Continent?

But how could this be possible? All existing ancient texts stated that the Hundred Domains Land belonged to the Nanming Divine Continent, merely as a border region of the Nanming Divine Continent.

Thinking of this, Xu Qing’s gaze looked north of the Guquan Great Territory. There was another Great Domain there, named Tianquan Great Domain, which was the Great Domain closest to the Nanming Divine Continent in the Hundred Domains Land.

North of the Tianquan Great Domain, he could not see, but it was said to be an endless Boundary Sea. Legend had it that beyond the Boundary Sea were other Great Domains of the Nanming Divine Continent.

“It seems there are many mysteries in this world I am in!”

Xu Qing looked in the direction of the Heavenly Pass. Perhaps only those powerful forces and the powerhouses of Zhenguan City knew the truth!

“With this war, various Primordial Crystal Veins and Primordial Veins have been added, and the Family has already been upgraded to its limit. What is lacking now are Imperial-grade Primordial Veins and Divine Crystal Veins.”

“However, when I used Ten Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains, I noticed many ruins of Imperial Dao powerhouses. It’s possible that what I need is inside!”

The biggest gain from this operation was the Family mansion. After devouring various ore veins, Primordial Veins, and various Heaven And Earth Treasures, my Family mansion has expanded to a range of ten thousand miles.

These Great Domains are indeed rich in resources. Currently, only a small portion has been exploited. If we were to plunder on a large scale, it could continue to grow.

However, it’s not necessary. A sufficient territory is enough. These conquered Great Domains can continuously provide talent for the Xu Family in the future.

Suddenly, Xu Qing paused, took out his profound yellow token, read the message inside, and smiled at the corner of his mouth.

After a month, among the Thirteen Sects Alliance, only the Quan Family remained.

“The decisive battle should begin!”

Xu Qing’s eyes narrowed slightly. Now was the time to truly deploy troops against the Guquan Great Territory.
