167: Chapter 167 A Trip to the Heavenly Gang Sect?

Shen Yuanshan did not answer, but instead raised the bronze mirror high, his internal Qi surging wildly as he poured it into the artifact.

"Hum—"

The bronze mirror suddenly erupted with a blinding bronze-colored light!

The light was as fierce as the sun, illuminating the entire Peak of Canglang Mountain!

A terrifying power surged from the bronze mirror, tearing open a massive rift in the Void Realm.

Within the rift, faint phantoms of mountains, rivers, palaces, and medicinal gardens swirled, emitting an ancient and weathered Aura.

The gates of the Xuantian Secret Realm were thrown wide open!

Shi Pojun's pupils constricted, and his face instantly turned as pale as paper.

"Th-this... what is this?!"

He struggled desperately, wanting to escape, only to find his body locked tight by an invisible force, unable to move at all.

Shen Yuanshan grinned, revealing a mouthful of chilling white teeth.

"A fine destination I've found for you all!"

Before the words had even faded, he waved his hand!

A terrifying surge of Qi poured from his palm, transforming into an invisible giant hand that grabbed Shi Pojun along with those few Shi Family Elders, and tossed them into the rift!

"No—!!!"

Shi Pojun's shrill scream echoed through the night sky, but it was quickly swallowed by the rift, vanishing without a trace.

Shen Yuanshan withdrew his hand and stood tall, turning to look at Shi Tianxiong.

Shi Tianxiong was slumped at the edge of the stone platform, his face deathly pale, his entire body trembling.

He wanted to run, wanted to scream, wanted to resist, but found his body simply would not obey him.

"You... you cannot kill me! I am the Shi Family's number one Prodigy! I—"

"Noisy."

Shen Yuanshan waved his hand.

Shi Tianxiong flew into the rift and vanished.

The remaining few Shi Family attendants were treated the same way by Shen Yuanhe, thrown into the Xuantian Secret Realm one by one.

In the span of just a few breaths, everyone from the Shi Family present had been completely swept away.

Shen Yuanshan put away the bronze mirror, brushed the dust off his hands, and a satisfied arc curved across his lips.

"Third Brother, there are still quite a few people from the Shi Family in Tianshi City." Shen Yuanhe leaned in, a sharp glint flickering in his eyes. "We can't let them off..."

"Of course." Shen Yuanshan grinned. "If you cut the grass but don't remove the roots, the spring breeze will make it grow again. Since we've already taken action, we must be clean and swift—leave none behind."

He turned his head to look at Elder Ancestor Shen Haocang. "Second Grand-Uncle, as for Tianshi City... we should make a trip there."

Elder Ancestor Shen Haocang nodded slightly. "Go ahead. I'll leave the Shi Family matter to you two."

He stood up and stretched his muscles and bones, a series of cracking sounds emanating from his entire body.

"It just so happens that I, this old man, haven't moved around in a long time. It's time I went out for a walk."

Shen Yuanshan's eyes lit up, his face full of excitement. "With Second Grand-Uncle holding the line, it will be foolproof!"

Elder Ancestor Shen Haocang glanced at him. "I didn't say I was going with you."

He turned to look at Shen Qingyuan and smiled. "Little Nine, come with me to the Tiangang Sect?"

Shen Yuanshan and Shen Yuanhe exchanged a look, both seeing surprise in the other's eyes.

They hadn't expected that Second Grand-Uncle actually wanted to charge straight to the Tiangang Sect!

Wasn't this too high-profile?

"Second Grand-Uncle, what are we going to the Tiangang Sect for?" Shen Yuanshan lowered his voice, a flash of doubt in his eyes. "We haven't finished dealing with the Shi Family yet, and the Tiangang Sect..."

Elder Ancestor Shen Haocang waved his hand, cutting him off. An unprecedented gravity appeared on his aged face.

"The Shi Family are merely clowns, unable to stir up any waves. But the Tiangang Sect is different."

He paused, his gaze sweeping over the two of them, enunciating each word: "I have received news that the Tiangang Sect's Old Ancestor is in seclusion, attempting a Breakthrough to the Saint Realm, and success is imminent!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Shen Yuanshan and Shen Yuanhe's expressions changed simultaneously.

"What?! The Tiangang Sect's Old Ancestor is going to become a Saint?!" Shen Yuanhe's voice was trembling, his eyes wide as saucers.

Becoming a Saint!

That was a major event!

In the entire Southern Region, over thousands of years, those capable of becoming a Saint were as rare as a Phoenix.

The reason the Three Great Holy Lands could tower above the Seven Great Sects was precisely because they had Saint Realm Old Ancestors presiding over them!

If the Tiangang Sect's Old Ancestor truly achieved a Breakthrough, the Tiangang Sect would become the fourth Holy Land in the Southern Region!

By then, with the matter of them having killed so many Tiangang Sect Elders, how could the Tiangang Sect let it rest?

"Second Grand-Uncle, is the information reliable?" Shen Yuanshan asked in a deep voice, his expression extremely ugly.

Elder Ancestor Shen Haocang nodded, a trace of gravity flashing in his eyes. "A few days ago, the Tiangang Sect already sent invitations to all the major forces in the Southern Region, inviting them to the Tiangang Sect to attend the 'Saint Conferment Celebration'."

Shen Yuanshan gasped, his mind in chaos.

The Tiangang Sect, the head of the Southern Region's Seven Great Sects, with a ten-thousand-year Legacy and unfathomable foundations.

The sect had an Old Ancestor at the ninth level of the Asking Dao Realm presiding over it, as well as several Elders at the Asking Dao Realm, and countless practitioners at the Primal Chaos Realm and Void Piercing Realm.

If that Old Ancestor were to achieve a Breakthrough to the Saint Realm...

"Therefore..." Elder Ancestor Shen Haocang spoke slowly, a flash of coldness in his eyes. "We cannot let him succeed."

Shen Yuanshan and Shen Yuanhe exchanged a look, both seeing shock in the other's eyes.

Charge to the Tiangang Sect?

Stop the Tiangang Sect's Old Ancestor from becoming a Saint?

This was no laughing matter!

The Tiangang Sect was filled with experts, and its sect-protecting formation was a Legacy of ten thousand years; even a powerhouse at the Peak of the Asking Dao Realm would not dare to easily barge in!

"Second Grand-Uncle, just us few... will it work?" Shen Yuanhe swallowed, his voice wavering.

Elder Ancestor Shen Haocang glared at him and said irritably, "Just relying on me and you two, that definitely won't work."

He turned to look at Shen Qingyuan, his eyes carrying a hint of inquiry. "Little Nine, what do you think?"

Shen Qingyuan had his hands tucked into his sleeves, standing lazily in place, and upon hearing this, he raised an eyebrow slightly.

"It is merely a small Tiangang Sect."

He chuckled softly, his tone understated. "I will accompany Second Grand-Uncle."

Shen Yuanshan and Shen Yuanhe looked at each other, their expressions incredibly vivid.

That was the Tiangang Sect!

The head of the Southern Region's Seven Great Sects!

A behemoth with an Old Ancestor at the ninth level of the Asking Dao Realm presiding over it!

Only Little Nine could speak of it so lightly.

He didn't put the Tiangang Sect in his eyes at all.

"Alright, stop dawdling." Elder Ancestor Shen Haocang stood up and adjusted his robes, his entire body exuding an Aura of someone who had long held a high position. "The Tiangang Sect's Old Ancestor's seclusion has reached a critical moment. Let's strike first while he hasn't achieved a Breakthrough to become a Saint yet!"

He paused, a flash of coldness in his eyes. "Destroy the Tiangang Sect, and end the trouble once and for all!"

Destroy the Tiangang Sect!

Four words, spoken lightly.

Yet they made Shen Yuanshan and Shen Yuanhe tremble, burning light shooting from their eyes.

That's right!

Destroy the Tiangang Sect!

What head of the Seven Great Sects, what ninth level Asking Dao Realm Old Ancestor, what ten-thousand-year Legacy...

As long as Little Nine makes a move, it can all be crushed!

Shen Qingyuan's lips curled slightly, and he raised his hand to gently slash through the Void Realm.

A golden light mark appeared out of thin air, like a sharp blade slicing through space.

The light mark expanded rapidly, transforming into a space rift a zhang wide.

Within the rift, faint phantoms of mountains, rivers, and cities swirled, emitting an ancient and weathered Aura.

The Tiangang Sect was in that direction.

"Let's go." Shen Qingyuan stepped into the rift, his figure submerged in the golden light, instantly vanishing from where he stood.

Luo Qingyue, her white clothes like snow, followed closely behind.

Elder Ancestor Shen Haocang took a deep breath and stepped inside.
