Chapter 537: Those Who Offend Our Dongxuan City, Though Far, Must Be Punished

With the crashing fall of the World Map, the sounds of desperate wailing from within the Gui Sect came to an abrupt end.

The entire mountain range spanning nearly ten thousand miles where the Gui Sect was located was instantly razed to the ground.

Even the many spiritual veins existing within the mountain range were driven deep into the ground under this strike of the World Map.

If it weren't for Ye Qingxuan restraining the power of the World Map at the last moment and specifically separating a portion of power to protect these spiritual veins, I'm afraid these spiritual veins would have been completely shattered under this strike.

Besides this, although the array barrier condensed by the Gui Sect's Seventh-Order protective great array was broken by the power of the World Map.

The many array bases of the Gui Sect's Seventh-Order protective great array located under the earth were preserved by Ye Qingxuan and were not destroyed by the power of the World Map.

And under the erosion and refining of the World Map's power, while destroying the Gui Sect, Ye Qingxuan also secretly took the Gui Sect's protective great array for his own use.

After all, a ready-made Seventh-Order great array was also an indispensable power for the Dongxuan City branch city that was about to be rebuilt.

As for the bodies of the Gui Sect members after they fell, they were also driven deep into the earth like the spiritual veins by Ye Qingxuan.

Under Ye Qingxuan's forceful intervention.

The remains of these cultivators, from Void Penetration Realm down to Qi Refining Realm, directly underwent Daoization under the earth, finally turning into streams of multicolored misty energy that merged into the land of the Gui Sect that had already been razed to the ground.

Although according to the energy operation rules of the Di Xuan Realm, most of this energy would be intercepted and absorbed by the Di Xuan Realm and incorporated into the overall energy system of the Di Xuan Realm.

But there would still be a small portion of energy that merged into this land and was absorbed by the many spiritual veins under the earth, transforming into the foundation for these spiritual veins to be promoted and transformed, permanently remaining in this land.

Under Ye Qingxuan's perception, many of the middle and low-order spiritual veins that he had driven under the earth had already begun to transform.

It is believed that before long, the grades of these middle and low-order spiritual veins would all be raised by one grade.

And although those Seventh-Order spiritual veins had not yet reached the standard for transformation, the accumulated foundation had also increased significantly.

The speed of absorbing energy from outside the realm and transforming Seventh-Order spiritual energy had already shown a significant improvement.

Just when the Gui Sect was completely destroyed by Ye Qingxuan's natal magic treasure, the World Map.

After the power fluctuations of the World Map were completely transmitted, in the Dongji Province and several great provinces surrounding the Dongji Province, several auras of the Void Meditation Realm successively revived and rushed straight into the sky.

Apparently, Ye Qingxuan's natal magic treasure, the World Map, fully reviving in the Dongji Province and the power fluctuations erupted, alarmed the powerhouses in the Dongji Province and several great provinces surrounding the Dongji Province.

After these powerhouses sensed the power of the World Map, they all involuntarily erupted with their own auras as deep as the abyss and the sea, as if declaring their existence.

And the owners of these auras were several faint figures located in different regions.

At this time, these faint figures were all looking at the direction where the Gui Sect was located, each whispering in surprise and accident:

"Hmm? This is the energy fluctuation of the Void Meditation Realm? I didn't expect that besides this one, there are other Void Meditation Realm magnates returning to the Dongji Province, and looking at the level of its fluctuations, it seems to be a magnate at the peak of the Void Meditation Realm?"

"Phew! Fortunately, this one didn't have the idea of unifying the Dongji Province, otherwise..."

"Huh? Void Meditation Realm? Which fellow Daoist has returned to the Dongji Province again? Should I go and see? Hmm! Peak of the Void Meditation Realm? Then forget it, this old man can't beat them, so I won't go and join the fun."

"That direction... is it the Dongji Province? It really deserves to be the core great province of the Dongji Region. Has power at the peak of the Void Meditation Realm already appeared at this point in time?"

"Energy fluctuations at the peak of the Void Meditation Realm? Interesting, which fellow Daoist has returned to the Dongji Region? I hope they don't come to my Dongyun Province!"

After sensing that the power of the World Map had reached the peak of the Void Meditation Realm, these Void Meditation Realm existences again hid their auras.

Feeling wary of the power of the World Map, these Void Meditation Realm magnates hiding in several great provinces did not even have the idea of going to the center of the energy eruption to find out.

Within a few breaths, the several faint figures that had appeared before in the Dongji Province and several great provinces surrounding the Dongji Province had already dissipated again, as if they had never appeared.

However, although the auras erupted by these Void Meditation Realm powerhouses were fleeting, they were still perceived by Ye Qingxuan's wisp of spiritual sense clone.

Seeing the World Map that covered the sky and the sun, the seven-colored phantom transformed by Ye Qingxuan's wisp of spiritual sense suddenly stared slightly at the distant heaven and earth, muttering somewhat puzzled:

"Five Void Meditation Realms? What is going on? Now in the various provinces of the Dongji Region, not only has the number of Void Penetration Realm powerhouses greatly increased, but even powerhouses of the Void Meditation Realm level have appeared?"

"Heh, interesting!"

After pondering for a moment, Ye Qingxuan stopped paying attention to these powerhouses.

As long as they didn't come to provoke his Dongxuan City, he naturally wouldn't take action against these powerhouses at will.

Although his main body currently only had a cultivation base at the early stage of the Void Meditation Realm, his natal magic treasure, the World Map, was already a Three-Star Mid-grade Spirit Treasure, and it was not far from a One-Star Upper-grade Spirit Treasure.

With the rule foundation of the World Map, as long as powerhouses at the Tribulation Crossing Realm did not appear, he could suppress all existences at the Void Meditation Realm by relying on the fully revived World Map, even those at the peak of the Void Meditation Realm were no exception.

So although he was not clear about the specific reason why the number of Void Penetration Realm powerhouses in the Dongji Region had increased significantly and even Void Meditation Realm powerhouses had appeared, he did not feel worried because of the appearance of these powerhouses.

Time seemed long.

But in fact, from the time Xue Yu sacrificed Ye Qingxuan's natal magic treasure, the World Map, to the destruction of the entire Gui Sect, only a few breaths of time had passed.

After the Gui Sect was completely destroyed, the Dongji Province cultivators watching from the outside finally came back to their senses from their dumbfounded state.

"Damn, this... is this the power of the Dongxuan City Lord of the main city of Dongxuan City in Star Fall Province?"

"Such strong energy fluctuations, is this... is this power still in the category of the Void Penetration Realm?"

"No, this is the power of the Void Meditation Realm. The Dongxuan City Lord of Dongxuan City is definitely a powerhouse of the Void Meditation Realm."

"Phew, fortunately my Yunying Sect did not provoke the Dongxuan City branch city in the Dongji Province, otherwise..."

"Such a strong spirit treasure, the power of a magic treasure after fully reviving is already so astonishing, then what kind of existence is the Dongxuan City Lord as its owner?"

It was not just those Dongji Province cultivators who came to watch the show from afar who were shocked.

Even Xue Yu and Li Dachui were no exception.

In the high sky a hundred miles away from the Gui Sect, although Xue Yu still looked calm and composed on the surface, dealing with things without surprise.

But his constricted pupils and accelerated heartbeat all exposed the shock in Xue Yu's heart.

Although he knew that Ye Qingxuan was a Void Meditation Realm powerhouse, this was the first time he had witnessed the power of the Void Meditation Realm level, and it was the power of the peak of the Void Meditation Realm.

When facing this vast and mighty power directly, even though Xue Yu was already prepared in his heart, he was still deeply shocked.

And after the shock, it was the yearning for this power.

Looking at the energy fluctuations erupted by the World Map that covered the sky and the sun, Xue Yu subconsciously clenched his hands, and the look in his eyes became even more determined.

And Li Dachui beside Xue Yu was even more unbearable, his rough face was already full of shock, and his eyes were full of disbelief.

After a long time, Li Dachui came back to his senses and hurriedly asked Xue Yu on the side:

"Is our City Lord a Void Meditation Realm magnate?" Hearing Li Dachui's inquiry, Xue Yu glanced at Li Dachui lightly and nodded slightly: "That's right!"

"Hiss! Phew!"

After receiving Xue Yu's confirmation, Li Dachui immediately widened his eyes and looked at the seven-colored phantom appearing on the World Map, and the sound of disordered and rapid breathing immediately sounded in his mouth.

After a long time, Li Dachui slowly spoke:

"A Void Meditation Realm magnate, terrifying to this extent!"

And behind Xue Yu and Li Dachui, the group of Dongxuan City cultivators including Su Jianfeng, Mu Chunzi, and Wu Jizi; after they reacted from the shock, at this moment, everyone was staring at the seven-colored phantom on the World Map with fiery eyes.

Although they had no words in their mouths, they were all shouting hysterically in their hearts: "Roar! This is the Dongxuan City Lord, our City Lord, a peerless powerhouse like a god or demon!"

"With the City Lord here, who would dare to provoke our Dongxuan City in the Dongji Region from now on?"

Without Ye Qingxuan's knowledge, he once again had a wave of fanatical fans among the Dongxuan City cultivators.

And after this battle, many of these outer members of Dongxuan City had been thoroughly convinced by Ye Qingxuan. Under the influence of fanatical emotions, they had already made up their minds in their hearts to make a Dao oath to swear their lives to Ye Qingxuan, their City Lord.

However, Ye Qingxuan did not know all this.

However, even if Ye Qingxuan knew, he would most likely just smile and let it pass, and would not care too much.

The current Ye Qingxuan had countless core members under his command, and having one more batch or one less batch of core members would not cause any harm.

The further they went, the greater the gap between cultivators would become, just like the bright moon and dust.

In the years to come, perhaps only those under his command who could at least break through to the Void Penetration Realm would be able to make Ye Qingxuan cast his gaze.

After destroying the Gui Sect, the seven-colored phantom condensed by Ye Qingxuan's spiritual sense looked around and declared to the surroundings with an ethereal voice: "Those who offend our Dongxuan City, though far, must be punished!"

After speaking, the seven-colored phantom transformed by Ye Qingxuan merged back into the World Map.

"Hum!" "Hum!" "Whoosh!"

Then, under Ye Qingxuan's control, the World Map began to shrink rapidly, the rules restrained, and finally broke through the air and came to hover in front of Xue Yu.

Seeing this, Xue Yu took a deep breath and reached out his hands to respectfully hold the World Map.

At the moment Xue Yu took the World Map, the wisp of spiritual sense that Ye Qingxuan had merged into the World Map transmitted another piece of information to Xue Yu.

Xue Yu was stunned. After checking the information transmitted by Ye Qingxuan and putting away the World Map, he looked at Li Dachui and the group of Dongxuan City cultivators behind him and said indifferently: "I, acting on the order of the City Lord, carried the City Lord's natal magic treasure to destroy the Gui Sect."

"Now that my mission is complete, I am about to return to Star Fall Province."

"The City Lord has ordered you all to rebuild Dongxuan City's branch city in the Dongji Province on the ruins of this Gui Sect, and I hope you will not tarnish the majesty of our Dongxuan City!"

"Now that the Seventh-Order protective great array left behind by the Gui Sect has been refined by the City Lord, those of you who hold the positions of City Lord, Deputy City Lord, and Guard Team Commander of Dongxuan City's Dongji Province branch city can control the power of the Seventh-Order great array to varying degrees by relying on the Dongxuan Token in your hands."

Hearing Xue Yu's words, the Dongxuan City crowd, led by Li Dachui, bowed respectfully, and said in unison with solemn expressions: "We, respectfully follow the City Lord's order!"

Seeing this, Xue Yu nodded with satisfaction.

Then he waved his hand to put away the hovering flying boat, and he himself turned into a rainbow light and fled in the direction he came from, finally disappearing into the distant sky.

Among the Dongxuan City cultivators, Su Jianfeng, Mu Chunzi, and Wu Jizi looked at each other and saw the undisguised joy in each other's eyes.

Unlike Li Dachui, who held the position of Guard Commander of Dongxuan City's Dongji Province branch city.

Li Dachui himself was a Void Penetration Realm powerhouse, so he was not too eager for the control authority of a Seventh-Order great array.

But Su Jianfeng, Mu Chunzi, and Wu Jizi were only powerhouses at the peak of the Deity Transformation Realm.

Now that they could control a Seventh-Order great array, whether it was used to fight the enemy or to assist themselves in comprehending the rules within the great array, it was indispensable for them.

Because they chose to become the City Lord and Deputy City Lords of Dongxuan City's Dongji Province branch city, they unexpectedly obtained the control of a Seventh-Order great array, so how could they not be overjoyed?

From the despair at the beginning when they saw the Gui Sect's nine Void Penetration Realm powerhouses, to the unexpected surprise obtained now.

The great sorrow to great joy in life, it was nothing more than this!

After Xue Yu left.

The Dongxuan City crowd, led by Li Dachui, began the construction of Dongxuan City's branch city in the Dongji Province based on the Gui Sect's Seventh-Order great array.

And the news of the Gui Sect's destruction also spread throughout the entire Dongji Province at a very fast speed as the group of Dongji Province cultivators watching the show dispersed.

There was even a trend of spreading outside the Dongji Province.

For a time, the major forces in the Dongji Province issued warning information within their spheres of influence for the first time, warning their respective disciples not to easily offend Dongxuan City for no reason.

And secretly, a very few forces with strength in the Dongji Province had already sent people to Star Fall Province to secretly inquire about the detailed information of Dongxuan City.

Just when the major forces in the Dongji Province were in a state of turmoil.

On a Seventh-Order mountain peak in a certain mountain range in the Dongji Province, three faint figures appeared, looking at the direction of the Gui Sect, and communicated with each other: "Dongxuan City Lord? Another Void Meditation Realm magnate has appeared in the Dongji Region."

"Since the great era descended, the powerhouses who walked out of the Dongji Region before have gradually returned, so it is not surprising that there is one more Void Meditation Realm powerhouse."

"That's true, but isn't the power erupted by this Dongxuan City Lord a bit too strong? If this elder is not mistaken, that Mid-grade Spirit Treasure should be his natal magic treasure."

"Being able to erupt such astonishing power with just a natal magic treasure, I wonder what the background of this Dongxuan City Lord is?"

"No matter, we three don't need to pay attention to the disputes between human forces in this Dongji Region."

"That may be so, but since the great era of cultivation descended, the demon beasts in this Dongji Region have almost been slaughtered by our human and Green Demon Realm cultivators. Do we three still have any significance in staying in this Dongji Region?"

"The Dongji Region is one of the four outer regions of the Di Xuan Realm and is crucial to the Di Xuan Realm. Although our major overlord-level forces don't have the idea of taking over the four outer regions, we cannot let the situation in the four outer regions get out of our control."

"It's just that with our strength, for the current situation in the Dongji Region, it is indeed a bit powerless."

"Hmm! Pass the situation in the Dongji Region back to our respective forces. With our strength, we can no longer deter these forces in the Dongji Region. Let the sect send stronger people to replace us!"

"I have no opinion. This elder has stayed in the Dongji Region enough. It's time to return to the sect to retreat and break through."

"Since that's the case, then let's do it!"

These three were exactly the three Void Penetration Realm elders sent by the three major overlord-level forces of the Eastern Region—the Xuantian Sect, the Tianyuan Sect, and the Huangfu Immortal Clan—to station in the Dongji Region before.
