340: The flawed jade is the king (79).

The news of the Flying Immortal Sect's envoy being slain before Yu Tian City swept through every corner of the Five Domains within a few short days.

For a time, the whole world was shaken.

The Supreme Body Wang Yun, a name that had been silent for nearly a millennium, returned to the vision of all top-tier powers with a powerful and domineering stance.

Northern Plains, Great You Sacred Dynasty.

Deep within the palace of the Sacred Capital, the current Great You Sacred Lord remained silent for a long time upon receiving this battle report, eventually issuing only one command.

"Prepare for war."

Two simple words, yet they made the Great You Sacred Dynasty's stance clear.

They chose to stand unreservedly on Wang Yun's side.

Other powers that had previously shared good relations with Wang Yun also began to secretly mobilize resources, keeping a close eye on the situation in the Eastern Domain at all times.

Naturally, even more powers chose to remain neutral and wait and see.

In their view, although the Supreme Body was strong, the Flying Immortal Sect was a colossus that had stood in the Eastern Domain for several eras with unfathomable foundations; the outcome of this battle was still uncertain.

Meanwhile, those powers that had grudges against Wang Yun, or whose prodigies had been suppressed by him on the Ancient Starry Road, were filled with schadenfreude, hoping the Flying Immortal Sect would completely obliterate this Supreme Body of overwhelming arrogance.

Eastern Domain, Flying Immortal Sacred Mountain.

The immortal mist that lingered year-round was instantly dispersed by the fury of a Saint King.

"Useless!"

"The face of my Flying Immortal Sect has been completely lost by you all!"

The roar shook the heavens, spreading from the peak of the Sacred Mountain throughout the entire sect; all Disciples and Elders in the mountain were so terrified they dared not make a sound.

The Saint King of the Flying Immortal Sect was enraged.

Soon, a decree personally issued by the Saint King spread throughout the Five Domains.

The Flying Immortal Sect officially declared war on the Yu Family of the Eastern Domain.

A fight to the death.

Simultaneously, a team of envoys led by a Saint quietly headed to the Central Province to visit the Ancient God Sect.

The Flying Immortal Sect hoped to ally with the Ancient God Sect to jointly send troops and quickly and thoroughly erase the Yu Family from the Five Domains.

However, the Saint King of the Ancient God Sect politely declined the Alliance request on the grounds that "this is an internal grudge of the Eastern Domain, and it is inconvenient for the Ancient God Sect to interfere."

After being rejected, the Saint King of the Flying Immortal Sect merely snorted coldly and did not press further.

"A bunch of cowards."

"Fine, why use a butcher's knife to kill a chicken? To destroy a newly risen Yu Family, the foundations of my Flying Immortal Sect are enough."

A few days later, the Flying Immortal Sect's army began to assemble. Three massive war-ships capable of traversing the Void Realm, carrying tens of thousands of sect elites and two Second Lotus Saint Realms, set out grandly toward the Yu Family under the personal leadership of that Saint King.

The news of the Flying Immortal Sect's declaration of war soon reached the Yu Family.

That was the Flying Immortal Sect.

A true colossus of the Eastern Domain, an immortal Legacy possessed of a Saint King.

Facing such a formidable enemy, everyone in the Yu Family felt immense pressure, and panic spread through the residence.

"What is there to panic about?"

Wang Yun's calm voice echoed in the grand hall, instantly soothing everyone's emotions.

"Just a bunch of rabble."

"I have everything under control."

His calm demeanor gave everyone great confidence.

It was at this moment that a violent surge of energy came from a secret chamber deep within the Yu Family's ancestral lands that had been sealed for nearly a millennium.

Boom!

A scorching Saint might soared into the sky.

The stone door of the secret chamber exploded, and a figure wearing golden battle armor, his whole body burning with golden flames, stepped out.

It was Chen Yang, who had been in secluded cultivation for many years.

At this moment, his aura was more than a hundred times stronger than it was a thousand years ago; he had remarkably reached the Second Lotus Saint Realm.

The moment he emerged, he triggered a celestial phenomenon.

A massive golden sun rose behind him, emitting an aura of supreme Yang, causing a newly ascended One-Lotus Saint of the Yu Family to be unable to look directly at his brilliance.

"Big Brother Yun!"

Chen Yang ignored everyone else and went straight to Wang Yun, kneeling on one knee, his voice excited and sincere.

"Chen Yang is willing to follow Big Brother through thick and thin, and will not hesitate even in the face of death!"

Wang Yun smiled as he helped him up, gratified by his growth.

"Good, very good."

"However, a mere Flying Immortal Sect doesn't require such desperation."

Wang Yun patted his shoulder, "You just need to guard the Yu Family."

After saying this, Wang Yun ignored everyone's attempts to dissuade him and, alone, tore through the Void Realm to intercept the Flying Immortal Sect's army.

He did not want the flames of war to reach the Yu Family... Eastern Domain, Soul-Severing Canyon.

This was a desolate land of death, shrouded in Evil Qi year-round.

Above the canyon, the Flying Immortal Sect's three massive war-ships tore through the air and came to a halt here.

At that moment, a figure in white quietly appeared on the path they had to take.

One person, one sword, blocking the path of thousands.

"Supreme Body Wang Yun?"

Aboard the war-ship, the Flying Immortal Sect Saint King looked at that tiny figure and sneered.

"Ignorant fool, you actually dare to come alone to your death."

Beside him, the two Three-Lotus Saints with powerful auras also wore expressions of mockery.

Wang Yun looked at them, his eyes calm yet full of intimidation.

"Today, this place shall be your burial ground."

"Arrogant!"

One of the Three-Lotus Saints flew into a rage and struck first; a Saint Realm Divine Ability containing the Law of Withering transformed into a gray sea of death, pressing down toward Wang Yun.

Wang Yun did not move.

The Void Realm behind him began to twist.

Boom!

A terrifying pressure far exceeding the Three-Lotus Saint Realm and belonging to the Saint King level erupted from his body.

Behind him, the dao fruit that had long reached Perfection emerged.

One, two, three, four.

A total of four dao lotuses were blooming quietly upon it.

The fourth lotus was an eerie black and white color, with dao patterns flowing over it and a silent aura of extinction sufficient to erase an epoch lingering around it.

Saint King Realm!

Before the horrified members of the Flying Immortal Sect, Wang Yun summoned his life-bound Saint weapon, 'Wushuang'.

He simply swung his sword casually toward that sea of death.

Squelch!

That ocean of Law capable of corroding everything was easily sliced open by this single sword strike and vanished into thin air.

The sword momentum did not diminish, striking directly at the Three-Lotus Saint who had attacked.

That Saint's face turned pale with shock as he hurriedly summoned his Sacred Artifact to block.

But before Wang Yun's 'Wushuang' sword, his Sacred Artifact was vulnerable and instantly shattered.

Where the sword light passed, that Three-Lotus Saint, along with his dao lotuses and Divine Soul, were all annihilated by the single strike.

One sword strike, an instant kill of a Three-Lotus Saint.

Such formidable strength caused the mocking smile on the Flying Immortal Sect Saint King's face to freeze instantly.

"Attack together!"

The Flying Immortal Sect Saint King roared, and he and the other remaining Three-Lotus Saint attacked simultaneously.

The two powerful Saints joined forces, their Law powers intertwining to form a giant web covering heaven and earth, intending to completely lock down and suppress Wang Yun.

The Saint King led the attack, manifesting the Flying Immortal Sect's supreme secret technique; a massive Saint King phantom appeared behind him, holding a Law spear and thrusting it at Wang Yun with the power to pierce through worlds.

The other Three-Lotus Saint focused on defense and support, summoning several powerful Sacred Artifacts to form layers of defensive light screens while using secret methods to disrupt the space around Wang Yun and restrict his movements.

Facing such an onslaught, Wang Yun finally moved.

"Grandmist Domain."

A purple-gold halo spread out with him at the center; within the Domain, the Law power of the two Saints was actually weakened by twenty percent out of thin air.

He did not clash head-on with the Saint King phantom's strike; instead, his figure flickered as he used his Double Pupils to predict the opponent's attack trajectory, appearing directly in front of the Three-Lotus Saint after dodging.

"What?!"

The Three-Lotus Saint was terrified; he hadn't expected Wang Yun's speed to be so incredibly fast.

"Light of the Epoch."

Wang Yun's voice was cold as Wushuang sword slashed out, the aura of extinction lingering on the blade.

The Three-Lotus Saint only had time to let out a scream before he and all the defensive Sacred Artifacts he had summoned were completely erased by this sword strike, turning into nothingness.

Another Three-Lotus Saint had fallen.

Seeing this, the Flying Immortal Sect Saint King turned pale with horror.

He was finally afraid.

He no longer had any desire to fight, turning around to burn his Origin and tear through the Void Realm to escape.

"Trying to leave?"

Wang Yun sneered, having long predicted the opponent's intention.

"Myriad Things Born."

Countless emerald-green divine vines grew out of the void, instantly locking down that space and transforming it into an indestructible cage.

The Flying Immortal Sect Saint King was trapped inside; he frantically attacked the divine vine barrier but could not budge it in the slightest.

Wang Yun walked toward him step by step, each step striking fear into his heart.

"No! You cannot kill me! I am a Saint King of the Flying Immortal Sect!"

The Flying Immortal Sect Saint King let out a desperate roar.

Wang Yun did not answer, merely raising the sword in his hand.

"I'll take you with me!"

Knowing he was doomed, the Flying Immortal Sect Saint King went completely mad, intending to detonate his own Saint King dao lotus to perish together with Wang Yun.

However, Wang Yun simply shook his head.

"Sever."

An invisible Sword Intent slashed out, directly cutting off the connection between him and the dao lotus.

The madness on the Flying Immortal Sect Saint King's face froze; he felt himself completely cut off from the source of his power.

Wang Yun closed in and, ignoring the Flying Immortal Sect Saint King's terror, decapitated him with a single sword strike, annihilating his Divine Soul.

Wang Yun calmly collected their storage Magic Treasures.

Holding the blood-dripping 'Wushuang', he stood tall in the Void Realm, his gaze looking toward the direction of the Flying Immortal Sect.

The result of this battle was about to shake the Five Domains once again, announcing the rise of an invincible monarch.
