Chapter 715: I am the law and the rule

He stood in mid-air, like a moth fluttering in a storm, bowing deeply, "Junior Lin Xuanyou greets the senior, I humbly request the senior to show yourself for a conversation!"

"Do the people of the Nine Heavens Immortal Alliance deserve to meet me? When I roamed the Boundless Great World, I never heard of this force. Entering my Wanshou Domain, naturally, you must leave something behind."

A cold snort echoed, and the power of the void's rules grew increasingly violent. One terrifying thunderbolt after another descended from the depths of the void, exploding suddenly.

The world shook, as if the apocalypse was about to destroy everything.

Lin Xuanyou was horrified by these words, his face turning pale as he plummeted from mid-air.

"Boom!!"

Thunder roared, its momentum overwhelming, intertwining like a heavenly tribulation, transforming into a purple waterfall cascading from the sky.

Under an oppressive force that took one's breath away, the purple thunder enveloped the war artifacts, shining brilliantly, blindingly so, accompanied by the sound of mountains collapsing and the earth shattering.

In an instant, the magical patterns on all the war artifacts shattered, turning to dust, leaving a massive chasm on the ground, bottomless.

Everyone felt their scalps tingle, gasping in shock, terrified to the extreme.

The people of the Dark Heaven Alliance felt their Dao hearts waver, disordered amidst the thunderstorm. It didn't kill them but destroyed their war artifacts instead?!

Lin Xuanyou collapsed to the ground, his face bloodless, yet even so, he gritted his teeth, struggling to stand, fearing he had encountered a legendary Heavenly Venerable.

He spoke with difficulty, "Senior, we are not from the Nine Heavens Immortal Alliance... The war artifacts you destroyed belong to the Dark Heaven Alliance."

"So what?" The sky echoed with that ancient, indifferent voice, "In the Wild Heaven Region, I am the law and the rule."

The domineering words lingered in everyone's ears, leaving them too afraid to think of anything else, only nodding in agreement, hoping for a sliver of survival.

Lin Xuanyou cupped his hands with a bitter smile, "We had no intention of offending the senior's domain. Consider these hundreds of war artifacts as compensation for the senior's anger, and please spare our lives. We will never appear in the Wanshou Mountain Range again."

The voice from the sky seemed silent for a moment before asking, "What kind of force is the Dark Heaven Alliance? It seems you've been in the Wild Heaven Region for quite some time?"

"...Reporting to the senior, the Dark Sea of the Wild Heaven Region is the Dark Heaven Alliance, having no relation to the Nine Heavens Immortal Alliance. We are great enemies."

Lin Xuanyou took a deep breath, forcibly swallowing the blood in his throat, "We have been in the Wild Heaven Region for thousands of years. The senior must have some misunderstanding; the words of that person are not credible, merely rumors and hearsay."

From his words, it seemed this senior had some grudge with the Nine Heavens Immortal Alliance. Lin Xuanyou remained calm, having faced many storms on the path of immortality.

However, the major force that dominates the nine great worlds, with countless enemies, has no weaklings among those who can become their foes. He had no idea where this senior had emerged from.

But as long as it wasn't against the Dark Heaven Alliance, it was fine. Otherwise, they wouldn't even have the chance to speak.

As soon as he finished speaking, the black-robed man who had spoken to him earlier almost slapped himself, feeling bitter inside...

It was just casual chatting between fellow Daoists, who would have thought a strong one was eavesdropping? What kind of strange hobby is this?!

They had scouted the area for miles around, and there was no domain of a strong one. He couldn't imagine what kind of existence could cover such a vast area with divine sense.

In the rivers of the Peach Blossom Land.

Chen Xun's expression twitched slightly, his eyes filled with uncertainty. Damn it... Did I just make a mistake with a casual move?

The enemy of the Nine Heavens Immortal Alliance, the Dark Heaven Alliance, seemed to be his preconceived notion. But as long as he didn't kill the wrong person, these matters could be reconsidered.

Black Bull looked at Chen Xun. If it were in the past, anything related to a small boundary, he would have acted without hesitation, directly suppressing everything. It seemed the great magistrate was indeed a terrifying existence.

Chen Xun suddenly held a Foundation Establishment beast egg in his hand, his eyes filled with contemplation.

As they say, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. He now needed some major forces to work for him, gathering intelligence and leading the way.

The Dark Heaven Alliance seemed like a good choice, with potential for development.

As for those war artifacts destroyed with a casual move, they were gone, and there was no point in dwelling on them.

He sat on a bamboo raft, waving his hand through the air, and a Five Elements mark surged from the river, followed by a water elemental shadow.

This water elemental avatar was just a minor Five Elements technique. Among these people, none showed the potential for Tribulation Crossing, so he would first establish a connection and find a suitable opportunity to contact the high-level members of the Dark Heaven Alliance.

In the distant mountains.

Lin Xuanyou took a deep breath, seeing a five-colored light mark descend from the heavenly thunder, even accompanied by a flowing water shadow.

The profound and endless aura made it impossible for him to discern the level of the strong one, only feeling a deep sense of reverence.

"Greetings, senior!"

"Greetings, senior!"

...

The cultivators of the Dark Heaven Alliance were all shocked, cupping their hands in fear that the thunder above would crash down if they were a moment too slow.

The water shadow avatar, entirely cyan-white, spoke with flowing lips, "Take this mark, Lin Xiaoyou, for now. This water elemental avatar will accompany you for a while. I wish to meet the people of the Dark Heaven Alliance to discuss something."

"Senior... this mark?"

"Extremely precious, it is the essence of the Five Elements of heaven and earth, no weaker than the treasures of the sacred land's mineral veins, considered compensation for the Dark Heaven Alliance's war artifacts, capable of slaying strong enemies and resisting the rule power of cultivators at the Great Ascension stage."

"If you can meet the upper-level cultivators of the Dark Heaven Alliance, there will be additional opportunities for you, young friends."

"Thank you, senior!"

Everyone's expressions became solemn. By now, the thunder had receded, the world was clear, like waking from a great dream, and the terrifying pressure above was gone.

"Hehe, let's go." The water shadow avatar spoke lightly, without facial features or hair, its body only a continuous flow of water.

Lin Xuanyou's eyes were deep as he looked at the Five Elements mark in his hand. There was no room for choice; thinking any more would be disrespectful to his own life.

After the time it takes for a stick of incense to burn.

The black-robed cultivators of the Dark Heaven Alliance, having sorted everything out, gradually disappeared into the Wanshou Mountain Range with Chen Xun's water shadow avatar, as if they had never been there.

In the Peach Blossom Land.

Chen Xun began fishing in the river again, peach blossom petals gently drifting across the land, dancing with the mountain breeze.

His deep gaze looked into the endless distance, and a meaningful smile gradually appeared on his lips.
