Chapter 948: Pushing Across All Directions, Exterminating the Six Royal Clans

Tu Shan expeditionary force breached the formation and slowly advanced into the Golden Wing Clan’s ancestral lands.

The following standards are simple.

Resisters are to be killed on the spot—no trial needed, execute immediately.

Then, cannibals die.

Enforced strictly by these two standards, all resisting Golden Wing Clan cultivators were executed; all surrendering Golden Wing Clan cultivators must open their spiritual souls for judgment—those unwilling to cooperate are killed.

Under the Tu Shan expeditionary force, everything proceeded with perfect order: seizing war spoils, rotating rest periods, judging the sins of demonic beings.

They moved without haste, ignoring the roars, shrill screams, and venomous curses of the Golden Wing Clan cultivators, focused solely on their own tasks.

After these two judgment procedures were carried out, the Golden Wing Clan’s ancestral lands were emptied within several hours.

Ninety-nine percent of the Golden Wing Clan cultivators were dead.

Every last one perished—their demonic bodies confiscated to be forged into various magic treasures and artifacts, especially flying vessels and flying swords, which gained greater affinity.

The few remaining Golden Wing Clan cultivators knelt humbly on the ground, desperately concealing their inner hatred.

“You will be enveloped by the light of Tu Shan law.”

Gong Caiyu said gently.

As a Zheng Zong cultivator, she was handling these remaining Golden Wing Clan cultivators; as a Nascent Soul cultivator, she could easily see through the deepest thoughts of these demon kings, generals, and lesser demons.

But she did not care.

These remaining Golden Wing Clan cultivators would be relocated to the Northern Plains for settlement.

Within five generations, every single one of these demonic cultivators had zero Dao heart—no possibility whatsoever of being entrusted with any important role by Tu Shan Central Court; they would live out their lives in mediocrity and die of old age.

After five generations, these hatred-filled demons would all be dead, and hatred would naturally vanish.

If hatred truly persisted across generations, that was fine—kill one as soon as it shows its head.

Tu Shan Central Court’s Dao heart inspections are not mere formalities; if they insist on hatred, their extinction after several generations is ordinary and causes no disruption.

Had the Lord not required maintaining ecological diversity in the Immortal Dao, the entire Golden Wing Clan would have been exterminated.

The Tu Shan expeditionary force occupied the Golden Wing Oasis, began resting there to recover from the long journey, and started constructing formations to initiate extermination of surrounding life.

This extermination immediately revealed countless parasitic insects emerging from all directions—rustling, hatching from eggs into adults: scorpions, centipedes, spiders, toads, and more.

It sent chills down the spine.

Hum!

Infinite formation patterns spread out; a thousand luminous great halls of the Hunyuan Fa Tian rose into the sky, bathing the earth in boundless light like countless searing fine needles, striking the parasitic insects—those hit died instantly.

Parasitic insects died in vast swathes, roasted into blackened char.

The rolling sea of parasitic insects vanished instantly.

“Those damned parasitic cultivators!”

Tian Yang Zhenjun cursed, still shaken.

Had they not prepared, had they neglected extermination, had they casually cultivated, taken elixirs, or used heavenly treasures in the Golden Wing Oasis, these parasites would have burrowed into their bodies through magic power, elixirs, and food—and they would not have been so fragile, easily reducing victims to a living hell.

These heretical cultivators are truly despicable, vile, and treacherous.

At once, the entire Tu Shan expeditionary force halted to rest, repeatedly inspecting their bodies and spiritual souls—and indeed, found thousands had unknowingly been afflicted, mostly Foundation Establishment and Golden Core cultivators with inadequate defenses, secretly targeted by advanced parasitic techniques without realizing it.

Their response, naturally, was to immediately forge parasitic-eradication elixirs and higher-grade poison-repelling pearls.

The entire Tu Shan expeditionary force gathered all high-grade cultivators, artifact-forgers, and elixir-makers from Tu Shan Central Court; even if any material was missing, it could be teleported from the rear—no great effort required.

After several months of rest, the Tu Shan expeditionary force left a small contingent to guard the newly constructed fourth-rank supreme formation at the Golden Wing Oasis; the three armies lifted into the sky and resumed their campaign to reclaim their ancestral lands.

Tu Shan Central Court’s strategy was simple—and openly declared.

First, exterminate the six royal clans’ ancestral lands.

Whether or not they had evacuated, destroy each royal ancestral seat one by one, then concentrate forces at the Great Snow Mountain Sacred Site, annihilate the core of the Demon Clan Empire, eradicate the Ice Phoenix Clan, and avenge the billions of Western Desert humans slaughtered by the demonic clans millennia ago.

Then, restore the Western Desert’s ancestral human lands!

No matter how the Western Desert demonic clans respond, we advance westward, breach every city, every demonic sacred site—those who stand in our way die.

Liu Ding, of the Six Dao Sect, watched the Tu Shan expeditionary force.

Five years later, the thirteenth year of the expedition, the Tu Shan expeditionary force reached the Six-Tailed Fox Clan’s ancestral lands; aside from over one hundred thousand ancient, dying foxes blocking their path, the rest, having seen the fate of the Golden Wing Clan, were terrified and fled ahead to the Great Snow Mountain Sacred Site, with only a few clan seeds relocated elsewhere.

The Tu Shan expeditionary force easily breached the Six-Tailed Fox Clan’s ancestral lands and slaughtered every cannibalistic demonic beast.

The spoils were few.

The Six-Tailed Fox Clan had transferred everything movable, leaving only a barren, top-grade fourth-rank spiritual vein and over one hundred thousand foxes fighting to the death.

These ancient foxes were all cannibals with heavy sins and little remaining lifespan, used as sacrificial pawns to demonstrate the Six-Tailed Fox Clan’s resolve to defend every inch of land, offering a token to the demonic imperial court.

Three years later, the Tu Shan expeditionary force breached the Sandstorm Lizard Clan’s lands—resisters and cannibals all died.

Another three years…

…

Under the orders of the Ice Phoenix Demon Lord, who ruled the Western Desert demonic empire, all six royal clans executed the “cutting the tail to survive” strategy, abandoning their ancestral lands.

Countless demon lords, kings, and generals—the elite warriors of the royal clans—gathered together within the Great Snow Mountain Sacred Site’s Soul Transformation formation.

The Tu Shan expeditionary force won victory after victory, breaching one after another of the six royal clans’ ancestral lands, unstoppable.

Throughout this process, the Ice Plain Tian Jun never dared appear to face the Tu Shan three armies’ blades, fearing he would be surrounded and slain alone.

The twenty-first year of the expedition.

With a deafening, earth-shattering explosion, the ancestral land of the Tunneling Armored King Clan—a vast, turtle-shaped yellow hill hundreds of kilometers long—was shattered by countless radiant sword rings from the Great Sun Long Sword; the clan’s seat was destroyed.

Human cultivators surged straight in, slaughtering every cannibalistic demonic beast and establishing their own formations.

Thus, all six royal demonic clans of the Western Desert had been breached; the Tu Shan expeditionary force completed its first strategic objective.

After several months of rest, they constructed a fourth-rank supreme formation at the Tunneling Armored Oasis to hold it.

After several months of preparation, they constructed a fourth-rank supreme array at Dunshan Jia Oasis to hold their position.

Hei Louxi took a deep breath.

Her gaze swept the surroundings, seeing many Nascent Soul True Persons with equally grim expressions—none, despite their string of victories, harbored any underestimation.

“The Great Snow Mountain Sacred Site!”

“We must breach the Great Snow Mountain Sacred Site! Kill the Ice Phoenix Demon Lord! Fully reclaim the Western Desert’s ancestral human lands!”

“We must breach the Great Snow Mountain Sacred Site! Slay the Ice Phoenix Demon Lord! Fully reclaim our ancestral western desert lands!”

A million cultivators roared in unison, their voices shaking heaven and earth.

A thousand luminous halls rose into the sky, parting the sea of clouds, accompanied by nine-colored sword clouds and one hundred thousand radiant wheels, carrying intense military formation aura and crushing, mountain-like pressure—no longer hiding anything—they advanced straight toward the Great Snow Mountain Sacred Site, guarded by a demonic Tian Jun.

A thousand Radiant Palaces rose into the sky, parting the sea of clouds, accompanied by nine-colored sword clouds and one hundred thousand light wheels, carrying intense military formation martial energy and a crushing, mountain-like pressure—no longer hiding anything, they surged straight toward the Great Snow Mountain Sacred Site guarded by a demonic clan Heavenly Sovereign.
