“Boom!”
“Boom!”
Inside the training room, Xiao Zuiji, fully armed, faced Su Xiaomo and Li Fei’s punches and kicks like an immovable boulder, not budging an inch.
The battle armor he wore was developed by Fan Yezi based on books obtained from the Demonic Delusion Domain, and because the materials were forged from Heavenly Spirit Tempering Ore, it could be called third-generation mecha.
“Huff! Huff!”
After fighting for a while, Su Xiaomo and Li Fei stopped, panting and bending at the waist.
One’s hands hurt, the other’s feet hurt. Throughout the entire process, it felt like they were pounding on an iron lump.
Xiao Zuiji, however, said excitedly: “Sect Master, this battle armor is excellent!”
Jun Changxiao, sitting nearby drinking tea, said: “After all, it’s forged from Heavenly Spirit Tempering Ore—how could it not be fantastic!”
After testing, the third-generation battle armor had extremely strong defensive power and high forging craftsmanship. Though it appeared bulky when worn, it was actually light and convenient—truly essential equipment for traveling abroad and murdering for profit.
Where could you buy such good stuff? Find Dog Sheng at Eternal Immortal Mountain.
Sorry, not for sale!
“Hall Master Fan.”
Jun Changxiao came to the Forging Hall and said: “Third-generation battle armor production must be accelerated. Strive to use up all remaining Heavenly Spirit Tempering Ore within half a month.”
“Alright!”
In the Lower Realm, Fan Yezi had basically been in a semi-retired state. After coming to the Upper Realm and being assigned a large workload, it let him rediscover his lost youth and regain his youthful drive!
Jun Changxiao also made a trip to the Array Formation Hall, instructing them to speed up mecha production.
In the workshops on both peaks, disciples worked their hearts out, while on the walls, the eight characters “Striving for Excellence, Forging Quality” shone with brilliant light.
“Clank! Clank!”
“Clank! Clank!”
Batches of Dark Destroyers and third-generation battle armor were successively born.
Elite members of the War Cavalry Hall gradually equipped the new mecha, while inner sect disciples gradually donned the new battle armor. The Eternal Sect’s hardcore strength was growing stronger day by day.
“Everything is ready.”
Jun Changxiao sat in his study, fingers interlaced: “We only lack the east wind.”
This east wind was Tianhua Dao Sect.
…
Lingtian Immortal Sect.
Lin Haoyan stood in his study, his gaze growing increasingly furious.
Lin Shangyi stood beside him like a child who’d made a mistake, head lowered, saying nothing.
“Bang!”
Suddenly, Lin Haoyan smashed the reluctant desk and roared furiously: “So you still paid the ransom?”
“Jun Changxiao was extremely cruel. If we didn’t pay, all four of my sect’s elders would have suffered at his hands!” Though Lin Shangyi looked aggrieved, he’d been prepared to be criticized after choosing to compromise.
“Four Lower-Rank Truth-Seeking Realm cultivators gave in!”
“Waste, good-for-nothing!”
Lin Shangyi was sprayed with a faceful of spittle, but could only keep his head lowered, howling internally: “This realm means nothing to you Immortal Sects, but to us Dao Sects, they’re treasures. You don’t care, but I do!”
“Sect Master Lin, don’t be angry.”
The Qianyin Immortal Sect’s sect master, sitting nearby, stroked his goatee and smiled: “We Ten Great Immortal Sects are the Upper Realm’s guardians. We cannot allow this extortion and blackmail atmosphere to spread, so…” He gave a “you know what I mean” look.
“Correct.”
Lin Haoyan calmed down and sneered: “Because of minor friction between disciples, they detained four elders and extorted one billion profound stones. This crooked trend must be curbed!”
“Sect Master Lin, you just said one of your sect’s elders was stabbed by Jun Changxiao?”
“Correct.”
“Is he alive or dead?”
“Still alive.”
“Announce his death externally and carry the corpse to Eternal Sect.”
“Ah?”
Lin Shangyi was dumbfounded. He quickly understood what it meant, and his facial expression immediately turned pained.
“Sect Master Lin.”
Lin Haoyan patted his shoulder and said in a low voice: “Any losses your sect suffers, after this matter ends, my Lingtian Immortal Sect will compensate handsomely.”
Hearing this, Lin Shangyi’s eyes brightened.
“Understood, understood!”
…
Eastern Sea.
The Ten Great Immortal Sects were still intensively arranging the sealing formations.
Although the Stone Statue Clan and Dragon Clan had already learned of this, because Jun Changxiao had instructed them beforehand, they pretended not to notice.
“Elder.”
“Three more days until completion.”
The array formation master in charge of the seal gave an exact time. When the news reached Lingtian Immortal Sect, Lin Haoyan calmly picked up his wine cup, his smile not reaching his eyes: “Jun Changxiao, you and your Eternal Sect can only exist for three more days.”
“Everyone, assemble your forces.”
“Good!”
The other nine sect leaders contacted their respective sects. From high-level elders down to elite disciples, everyone made preparations.
…
Jidao Cave Dwelling.
Tonggu Zhenren irritably swept the chess board aside: “Old friend, I’ve had another ill omen.”
“…”
Qiye Zhenren was speechless.
Every time he was about to lose, an ill omen came—wasn’t this too coincidental!
“Boom!”
Suddenly, thunder rumbled outside.
The two rose and walked out of the cave dwelling, seeing dark clouds gathering in the distance, a murderous aura blowing with the wind.
“Seems like.”
Qiye Zhenren said gravely: “The weather’s changing again.”
“Sigh.”
Tonggu Zhenren sighed: “I hope this time it’s not related to my disciple.”
Apart from the Star Spirit Realm’s two invasions, whenever he felt anxious and irritable, it was definitely related to Jun Changxiao.
Of course.
Dog Sheng felt quite guilty too.
So when the Ten Great Immortal Sects targeted Eternal Sect this time, he didn’t notify Tonggu Zhenren to come help.
“Master.”
Sitting beneath the dark clouds shrouding the great hall, Jun Changxiao raised a jar of Drunken Life, Dreaming Death and said: “This disciple now has the strength to face anything and won’t trouble you anymore.”
…
Three days were short.
They passed in just a paragraph.
“Buzz!”
“Buzz!”
In the Eastern Sea, the two sealing formations were finally completed.
“Whew!”
The person in charge breathed a sigh of relief.
During this time, he’d constantly been on edge, afraid the Dragon Clan and Stone Statue Clan would come out to cause trouble. Fortunately, they weren’t discovered and everything went smoothly.
“Thank heaven, thank earth.”
Actually… he should thank Dog Sheng most, because it was he who held back both clans.
Lingtian Immortal Sect.
The anxiously waiting Lin Haoyan learned the seal was successfully arranged and immediately leaped up, shouting: “Depart!”
“Yes!”
“Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!”
In an instant, nearly ten thousand high-level cultivators and elite disciples transformed into streaming light and flew out from the sect, weaving rainbow-like spectacular scenes across the firmament.
“What’s happening?”
Passersby were astonished.
The Ten Great Immortal Sects existed as transcendent entities in the Upper Realm. Normally seeing a few people was already good—now so many were flying out. Were they going to fight?
Similar situations unfolded at the other nine sects. High-level cultivators and elites followed their sect masters, flying toward Eternal Immortal Mountain at maximum speed.
How many?
Ten thousand per sect, one hundred thousand total for ten sects!
This number happened to match the Eternal Sect’s, but those dispatched were all elites, making their combat power extremely formidable.
“Whoosh! Whoosh!”
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
Vast waves of qi spread out, deeply shocking Upper Realm martial artists.
“Something big is happening!”
“This scene is exactly like what ancient texts record—ten thousand years ago when the great Immortal Sects joined forces to resist the Demonic Delusion Clan!”
The Ten Great Immortal Sects dispatching their elite forces together instantly shocked the entire Upper Realm, making various martial artists speculate who was about to be unlucky.
“Eternal Sect!”
“The direction they’re going is Eternal Sect!”
Some people immediately guessed based on the direction Lingtian Immortal Sect’s experts were flying. After all, in terms of grudges, Jun Changxiao had previously snatched a Dao Stone mineral vein from them.
Indeed!
This day had finally come!
