misfortune
At this moment, Ling Wushuang, having witnessed the terror of the Phoenix Feather Sect, knew that Sword Wushuang was no longer someone the entire Intercepting Heaven Sect could recruit.
Moreover, a strong sense of crisis and urgency arose within him.
One must know that the ranking of Prodigies on the Heavenly Dao Rankings is extremely important for a Sect.
Disciples on the list can bring considerable Luck to the Sect.
No one knew how many people with the Innate Dao Body were in the Phoenix Feather Sect, but from what he had seen, this was definitely an extremely terrifying number.
The Intercepting Heaven Sect must plan early; perhaps, they could go to other Domains to compete for spots in those Domains.
Otherwise, staying in the Void Domain would yield minimal results.
Even...
He didn't dare to think further, because if what he imagined truly happened, the entire Void Domain would not just experience a simple change, but also a boundless earthquake.
Because no one knew that this small Chaotic Land hid such a terrifying Sect.
Ling Wushuang, anxious in his heart, didn't even finish visiting the Phoenix Feather Sect before bidding farewell to Sword Wushuang.
This made Sword Wushuang a little surprised.
"Brother Ling, didn't you want to visit my Phoenix Yu Sect? Why are you leaving in such a hurry?"
Could Ling Wushuang say that it was because your Phoenix Yu Sect was too abnormal, and he had to return to the Intercepting Heaven Sect to prepare early?
Of course, these words were not suitable to be spoken aloud.
He said with a bitter smile, "There's a very important matter that I must return for."
"I apologize for any disrespect, and I hope Brother Ling can forgive me!"
"Since Brother Ling has an important matter, just go and handle it; there's no talk of disrespect."
"I'll see Brother Ling off!"
Under Sword Wushuang's courteous escort, Ling Wushuang and Ling Yuan left the Phoenix Feather Sect directly.
They transformed into a streak of light, rushing straight towards the Intercepting Heaven Sect.
Above the clouds!
Ling Wushuang felt a little emotional.
Previously, his intuition told him that this place would have a Prodigy who could make it onto the Heavenly Dao Rankings.
Facts proved that his intuition was not wrong.
But who would have thought that there would be so many, and such abnormal, Prodigies here?
It was like someone going fishing, sensing a school of fish in a certain spot, only to find out it was a school of sharks upon arrival.
This feeling was quite uncomfortable.
Ling Yuan, who was beside him, looked back with lingering fear.
His heart was still pounding even now.
At the same time, he also thought that the pattern of the Void Domain would likely begin to change due to the existence of the Phoenix Feather Sect.
Just like that, the Revered Master and Disciple came leisurely and returned in a hurry.
Their return speed was much faster than their arrival.
To even speed up, Ling Wushuang did not hesitate to use a teleportation scroll that was meant for self-preservation.
A few days later!
The Revered Master and Disciple finally arrived at the Intercepting Heaven Sect.
"Hoo!"
"We're finally back!"
The two looked at the increasingly close mountains and countless halls.
Ling Yuan took a deep breath.
Although the time they spent outside was not long, it made him feel as if ages had passed.
There was no other way; the experience in the Chaotic Land was truly too bizarre.
If it were spread, no one would necessarily believe it.
Ling Yuan did not delay; he immediately went to find his Revered Master, the Sect Revered Master.
However, as the two walked a certain distance, their expressions gradually became solemn.
The Intercepting Heaven Sect is one of the five strongest forces in the Void Domain.
Throughout the Sect, it wasn't that the defenses were strict, but there were also patrols and guards.
Yet at this moment, looking around, not only were the areas around many grand halls empty.
Moreover, many grand halls had collapsed, mountain ranges were broken, and some places were filled with the smell of war and smoke.
It was clear that a terrifying battle had taken place.
"Who dares to be presumptuous in my Intercepting Heaven Sect?"
Ling Wushuang's grim face revealed a strong sense of confusion.
The Intercepting Heaven Sect had stood in the Void Domain for tens of thousands of years.
Besides having a Sect Revered Master with Supreme Three Realm cultivation and a Vice Sect Revered Master with Supreme Two Realm cultivation, it also possessed terrifying strength like the Old Ancestor with Supreme Seven Realm cultivation.
One Sect with three Supremes, what power!
In Ling Wushuang's impression, since he was born, no one had dared to be presumptuous in the Intercepting Heaven Sect.
Even tracing back a few thousand years, the Intercepting Heaven Sect rarely experienced conflicts.
But precisely because of this, once a battle occurred, it meant that the entire Sect had probably undergone a monstrous upheaval.
Thinking of this, Ling Wushuang's expression turned anxious, and he once again sped up, rushing towards the Intercepting Heaven Grand Hall!
Intercepting Heaven Grand Hall!
It was the main hall of the entire Intercepting Heaven Sect.
It was also the place where the high-ranking officials gathered for discussions.
The ancient and magnificent Grand Hall stood at the peak of the mountains and countless halls.
Every wall brick and stone pillar of the entire Grand Hall was engraved with runes and Formations.
Dragon and Phoenix flying totems were carved on the beams and jade pillars, adding a sense of grandeur to the entire Grand Hall.
This Grand Hall had existed since the establishment of the Intercepting Heaven Sect, and over tens of thousands of years, it had been renovated many times; in a sense, it witnessed the entire history of the Intercepting Heaven Sect.
And at this moment, the entire Grand Hall was enveloped in an extremely dense and oppressive atmosphere.
Inside the Grand Hall, the high-ranking officials of the entire Intercepting Heaven Sect were gathered.
Seated above them was none other than the Sect Revered Master, Fang Changtian.
Below were the Vice Sect Revered Master, Luo Wuhen, and a group of other high-ranking officials.
The atmosphere was once silent.
Everyone's face, more or less, carried a hint of melancholy.
A streak of light came rapidly from outside the door, accompanied by a voice, breaking the tranquility of the Grand Hall.
"Revered Master, why are there traces of battle in the Chengde Hall? Has something major happened to the Sect?"
"Wushuang, why are you back?"
Sect Revered Master Fang Changtian's expression shifted slightly, and he said with a solemn voice.
"Please allow Disciple to report on this matter later."
"Revered Master, is it the Li Huo Sect that launched an attack on our Sect?"
It was not strange for Ling Wushuang to ask this.
Among the five major forces in the Void Domain, each was a formidable existence that dominated a region.
However, the relationships among the five major forces were not harmonious.
And the only one that had a long-standing feud with the Intercepting Heaven Sect was the Li Huo Sect.
Fang Changtian shook his head.
"It's not the Li Huo Sect, but a force from the True Domain."
"True Domain?"
Ling Wushuang's brows furrowed, and he only felt that things were a bit tricky.
The Central State Three Thousand Domains are not interconnected; each Domain is isolated from the others.
However, there is a special passage between the True Domain and the Void Domain that allows for travel back and forth.
It's just that not many people know about that passage; it's limited to some top forces in the two Domains.
Of course, each time one passes through that passage, they have to pay a considerable price.
That price, even for the top forces of the two Domains, would cause them pain.
Therefore, generally speaking, if there were no major events, people from the two Domains would basically have no contact.
But now, a force from the True Domain, at great cost, came through that special passage to attack the Intercepting Heaven Sect, and Ling Wushuang's mood instantly sank to the bottom.
In a sense, this was ten times more serious than an attack from the Li Huo Sect.
He sensed a huge conspiracy.
"Revered Master, could you please explain in detail?"
"Alas!"
Fang Changtian sighed deeply.
"This is an unprecedented disaster for my Intercepting Heaven Sect; originally, I didn't plan for you to return before this matter was resolved."
"However, since you're here, as the Saint of the Intercepting Heaven Sect, you are destined to carry the banner of the Intercepting Heaven Sect in the future."
"You should participate in the discussion of this matter as well!"
