Chapter 148: Chen Changsheng, I, the Master, have come!

The sound fell!

A huge ancient palace emerged from a crack in the void, its intricate dao patterns constantly evolving, exuding the aura of the ages.

Heavenwalk Old Ancestor stood atop the Spirit Boat, face flushed red, beard trembling, looking down upon the land of the Ancient Qin Clan, killing intent overflowing.

He looked toward the void beside Lu Xuan and said respectfully, "Fellow Daoist, you need not act this time!"

Lu Xuan's face twitched, "Good."

It was clear that Heavenwalk Old Ancestor had endured all the way.

Now it will erupt!

Heavenwalk Old Ancestor looked toward Heavenorigin Old Ancestor and said, "Senior Brother Heavenorigin, let me take action this time! I have long disliked that mere Ancient Qin Clan!"

Heavenorigin Old Ancestor nodded in agreement.

His Divine Sense had already scanned the Ancient Qin Clan; the clan's three strongest were two Eight-Star Great Emperors and one Seven-Star Great Emperor.

Those two Eight-Star Great Emperors had withered auras, gaunt appearances, and declining vitality; they seemed to have little lifespan left, far from their peak.

Such a Qin Clan could be wiped out by Heavenwalk Junior alone!

Boom!

Heavenwalk Old Ancestor stomped his bare feet, instantly flying down from the Vast Ancient Palace; his Eight-Star Emperor Realm aura was like an abyss and a sea, rolling spiritual energy surged tumultuously, and he directly crushed over the Ancient Qin Clan.

Killing intent overflowing!

Qin Wuyang's heart suddenly filled with fear, his voice trembling, "The Great Dao Sect has really come!"

Beside them, the faces of the two Eight-Star Emperor Realm Old Ancestors turned very grim.

This time, the Nine-Star Great Emperor of the Great Dao Sect also descended!

Those who come harbor ill intentions!

Two Eight-Star Old Ancestors, one in black robes, the other in gray, squeezed out a smile; a Divine Rainbow appeared beneath their feet as they rose into the air, bowed with clasped hands toward Heavenwalk Old Ancestor, and said respectfully,

"Esteemed fellow Daoists of the Great Dao Sect, your visit to our clan is a belated welcome; I wonder what matter brings you?"

Before he finished speaking, Heavenwalk Old Ancestor snorted coldly, "Exterminate your Qin Clan!"

The sound fell, like thunder echoing between heaven and earth.

Heavenwalk Old Ancestor directly activated the power of the Great Dao Scripture; instantly, terrifying energy gathered from all directions of heaven and earth, he stepped forth, his might growing ever more overbearing, like mountains overturning and seas overturning, pouring down upon the Qin Clan populace.

The silhouettes of the two Qin Clan Old Ancestors swayed in the void, their hearts greatly shocked.

Though both Eight-Star Great Emperors, they are far inferior to this Heavenwalk Old Ancestor!

Not only is there a strength gap, but also a life-force fluctuation!

They have little vitality left, their aura waning, their breath fading like a dying fire, while Heavenwalk Old Ancestor is like a blazing great sun!

Even combined, they are no match for Heavenwalk Old Ancestor!

"Fellow Daoist, speak nicely! Speak nicely!"

The two Qin Clan Old Ancestors cried out in alarm.

But Heavenwalk Old Ancestor ignored them, flicked his sleeve, his aura reaching the extreme, Great Emperor Dao Patterns swirling around him, he blasted forth toward the two Qin Clan Old Ancestors!

Boom!

A Heaven-Reaching Palm Seal rose, covering the sky and blocking the sun; the power of the Great Dao Scripture was added to it, plus Heavenwalk Old Ancestor's supreme art, its might overflowing.

The two Qin Clan Old Ancestors gritted their teeth, could only activate their trump cards, barely resisting.

But it was useless!

Heavenwalk Old Ancestor's this palm, grand and domineering, directly sent the two Qin Clan Great Ancestors flying into the void, heavily smashing onto a mountain ridge.

Crack!

In an instant, the mountain ridge shattered, rolling stones flew, the Qin Clan's land tore apart for over ten li, countless pavilions and caverns collapsed, and a gigantic five-finger palm print appeared directly on the ground.

Pfft!

The two Qin Clan Great Ancestors each spat blood, faces turning pale.

Directly severely injured!

Seeing this, all members of the Qin Clan felt immensely shocked.

But beyond shock, there was even more fear.

Heaven and earth fell into a deathly silence!

Over these thousands of years, when have the Qin Clan ever suffered such a fate?

The Qin Clan is a hegemon-level power towering over Nan Huang!

At this moment, the pride that had resided in the Qin Clan's hearts for thousands of years was shattered by Heavenwalk Old Ancestor's palm!

Even among hegemon-level powers, there are differences!

And then.

Far off, the void of the Qin Clan tore apart with a boom.

Dozens of Spirit Boats continually rose and fell in the depths of the firmament.

The newcomers are precisely the major human power of Yan Prefecture, where the Qin Clan resides!

Yan Prefecture having witnessed such a great event, they all descended to watch.

Seeing the Qin Clan attacked by the Great Dao Sect, the people of Yan Prefecture were shocked in their hearts.

You know the Qin Clan is the strongest power in Yan Prefecture!

Could it be that today they will really be exterminated?

And at this moment.

Heavenwalk Old Ancestor radiated brilliant divine splendor, his whole person like a blazing sun, continuing his slaughter forward!

He slowly opened his mouth, announcing the fate of the Qin Clan.

Today, the Qin clan was removed from Nan Huang!

This voice was ice-cold beyond compare, echoing through the void, like a funeral bell tolling in the ears of the Qin clan.

The Qin clan members instantly fell into extreme panic!

The two Eight-Star Emperor Realm ancestors of the Qin clan looked at Qin Wuyang, 'Immediately contact the Supreme Profound Sect!'

Qin Wuyang immediately activated a secret technique, sending a sound transmission to Ancestor Nan Chenzi of the Supreme Profound Sect.

The Qin clan members also took the opportunity to activate the clan-protecting grand formation!

But it was already too late!

Ancestor Tianxing's aura erupted again, overbearing and fierce, like thunder shattering darkness; the released energy boiled over, like a flood breaking its banks, huge waves slamming the case, directly shattering the Qin clan's formation.

"Crack!"

"Crack!"

In an instant, the endless formation lines dimmed, turning into dust amidst fireworks.

Next, Ancestor Tianxing again shifted to before the Qin clan's two Eight-Star Emperor Realm ancestors, unleashing supreme killing power.

"Boom boom boom!"

The void trembled!

The earth split apart!

The two ancestors were beaten helplessly, becoming extremely miserable, on their last breath.

Their flesh was nearly blown apart, revealing stark white bones; their souls shattered into fluff; the Great Emperor's Dao foundation was shattered into pieces, barely retaining a final breath.

Can't fight again!

Not far away, Qin Wuyang had a ferocious face, shouting in a fierce voice, 'Great Dao Sect! My ancient Qin clan is indeed not your match! But the Supreme Profound Sect is on the way; they have already promised to protect us! If you dare to act against my Qin clan, the consequences will be absolutely beyond what you can bear!'

"Oh?"

Ancestor Tianxing snorted, 'The Supreme Profound Sect is coming? Then I guess I need to speed up!'

Saying this, he unleashed a final strike at the two Eight-Star Great Emperors!

The Qin clan's two Eight-Star Great Emperors had long been unable to resist, only able to watch helplessly as the giant palm fell.

Boom!

In an instant, the two great ancestors' bodies exploded, and they died outright.

Body and Dao extinguished, form and spirit annihilated!

Seeing this, the Qin clan members were stunned like wooden chickens.

The Qin clan's two strongest ancestors just died like that?

Their minds were completely blank!

Absolutely unacceptable!

At this moment.

With a thought, Ancestor Tianxing manifested an illusory golden hand in the air, reaching for Qin Wuyang!

Qin Wuyang had no way to avoid, directly being grasped by that illusory golden hand.

Ancestor Tianxing's face was icy cold, he squeezed hard!

But at this moment, a brilliant divine radiance surged from Qin Wuyang's body, the mark left by Ancestor Nan Chenzi of the Supreme Profound Sect was activated.

A human figure condensed in the void.

It was none other than Nan Chenzi!

Supreme Profound Sect, Nine-Star Great Emperor!

Nan Chenzi's white beard fluttered as he scanned the surroundings, his eyes showing surprise, he turned his gaze to Ancestor Tian Yuan and slowly said, 'Fellow Daoist Tian Yuan, give me some face from the Supreme Profound Sect...'

Before he could finish, Ancestor Tian Yuan flicked his sleeve and directly dispersed Nan Chenzi's illusion.

You...

Nan Chenzi wore an expression of disbelief, his form dissipating between heaven and earth.

Seeing this, Qin Wuyang's scalp went numb.

Even the Supreme Profound Sect cannot intimidate the Great Dao Sect?

Ancestor Tianxing directly squeezed hard.

"Pfft!"

Qin Wuyang's body directly exploded, blood staining the heavens.

Body and Dao extinguished!

The Qin clan members stood frozen in place.

The three great ancestors just died like that?

In the distance, the people of Yan Prefecture stared wide-eyed in the void.

Who could have imagined the Great Dao Sect's killing intent would be so terrifying?

The ancient Qin clan received the Supreme Profound Sect's protection, but it was useless!

Ancestor Tian Yuan actually gave no face to Nan Chenzi at all!

Such a Great Dao Sect made them feel fear!

If one says the Great Dao Sect had been lying dormant like a sleeping giant beast, merely inspiring awe.

Then today that giant beast awakened, launched a war of trampling, making everyone feel fear!

Whenever swords are drawn, blood must be spilled!

It is obvious the Great Dao Sect wants to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys.

The overlord of Yan Prefecture, the ancient Qin clan became the target of a demonstration toward the three thousand prefectures of Nan Huang!

Someone guessed, saying, "This time sniping the Profound Dao Sect's genius, the ancient Qin family must have been involved; otherwise the Profound Dao Sect couldn't be so crazy!"

Another great emperor said, "Probably. The Profound Dao Sect suddenly became terrifying!"

Next, Heaven Striding Ancestor unleashed a great slaughter.

This will be a massacre!

No one in the Qin family can withstand him in a single move!

There is no suspense.

Heaven Striding Ancestor swept the Qin family away like autumn wind sweeping leaves, like sand and mud flowing down together, with thunderous speed, utterly destroying the Qin family.

The land of the Qin family directly flowed with blood like a river.

Vast Mystery Ancestor lightly shook his head and said leisurely, "Better to offend the Heaven Origin Ancestor than to provoke the Heaven Striding Ancestor."

Because the Heaven Origin Ancestor, although a Nine-Star Great Emperor, can still sit down and talk.

But once Heaven Striding Ancestor gets angry, he will go berserk!

Next, Heaven Striding Ancestor slaughtered his way into the Heaven Blade Sect and other forces under the Qin family.

Wherever he passed, a single strike overturned them.

Heaven Striding Ancestor's killing intent was immense; having decided to exterminate the Qin family, he acted swiftly and thoroughly, cutting the grass and pulling out the roots.

Moreover, the Supreme Mystery Sect is already on the way.

And we must seize the time!

He is not the type who likes to nag and make excuses during battle!

Soon.

Heaven Striding Ancestor traversed the void, his form like wind, rushing straight to the Qin family's subordinate forces!

Exterminate them root and branch; not a single person can be left!

Heaven Striding Ancestor, like a death god, madly reaped lives!

At this point, no one in Yan Province could stop Heaven Striding Ancestor; his focus had already turned to the treasuries of these forces.

Killing without seizing treasures would be meaningless!

Heaven Striding Ancestor roamed the firmament, divine rainbows towering, like the Milky Way continually piercing the void, shuttling back and forth across Yan Province.

Other major forces in Yan Province could only watch silently as all this happened!

Huge waves surged in their hearts.

Who could have imagined that the greatest Eight-Star Imperial forces of their province would be destroyed just like that?

This is simply too terrifying!

The ancient Qin family is a great clan that has stood for tens of thousands of years!

They actually became the first hegemonic power to be destroyed upon the advent of the great era!

Everyone recalled the past era, the advent of the great age, the fear of being dominated.

In the struggle of the great age, bones are exhausted; beneath the supreme path, all are departed souls!

The destruction of the ancient Qin family is only the beginning; soon more and more forces will vanish in the river of history.

Many forces in Yan Province felt shock and remained silent for a long time.

After several hours.

Heaven Striding Ancestor returned.

He does things without delay; with his own power he overturned the Qin family's subordinate forces such as the Heaven Blade Sect and Black Rock Sect!

He held several spatial rings in his hand, containing all the spoils from destroying the Qin family.

Over ten imperial weapons!

Plus several veins of top-grade spirit ore!

Imperial cultivation techniques, spiritual herbs, elixirs, talismans...

Simply too many to count!

This harvest was quite abundant!

Heaven Striding Ancestor was in high spirits, smiling at Ji Fuyao, Ye Chen, Liu Xuan and others as he said, "Return and I'll distribute cultivation resources to you!"

Many top-tier Zhuan Chuan Di Zi said, "Thank you, Ancestor!"

Heaven Striding Ancestor pointed at the ruins of the ancient Qin family and said, "Remember, when you kill enemies in the future, you must remember to exterminate them root and branch!"

Many Zhuan Chuan Di Zi nodded.

Just then.

Heaven Origin Ancestor looked at Lu Xuan and others, saying, "Vast Mystery, Heaven Striding, return to the sect first; Fellow Daoist Nanchen Zi has already reached the border of Yan Province. I'll go meet him!"

He knew that after destroying the ancient Qin family, he and Nanchen Zi would inevitably fight!

This is unavoidable!

Heaven Striding Ancestor, Vast Mystery Ancestor, and the others nodded.

A battle of Nine-Star Great Emperors is not something they can involve themselves in!

Soon.

Vast Mystery Ancestor summoned an ancient black-and-white Dao palace; the members of the Profound Dao Sect stepped into it, instantly turning into flowing light, tearing the void, and shooting forth toward the direction of the Profound Dao Sect.

Three days later.

Vast Mystery Ancestor led everyone back to the Profound Dao Sect.

Qingyan and Wang Man, the Ye family ancestor and others bade farewell to Ji Fuyao, each returning to the Black Flame Mountains and Qingcheng.

As they were about to leave, everyone said, "Your Majesty the Empress, perhaps we can now begin planning the reforging of the Fuyao Imperial Dynasty!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Fuyao tilted her snow-white neck slightly, her starry eyes flickering, and said, "I will consider it."

Everyone nodded, then boarded the Great Dao Sect's transmission array and left.

On Xuan Qing Feng.

Lu Xuan eagerly checked Chen Zhangsheng's information.

As always, whether realm, cultivation method, or insight, everything is unknown!

It's so mysterious…

The system has already marked Chen Zhangsheng's location, which is in Baiya Prefecture.

Ji Fuyao and Ye Chen's first thing upon returning to Xuan Qing Feng was to step into Cao Wu.

The two even fought over who would cook.

This time going out, they hadn't cooked for their master in many days.

They all wanted to cook for Lu Xuan!

Ji Fuyao's tender lips parted slightly as she looked at Ye Chen, "Junior Brother, I'll do it."

Ye Chen said, "Senior Sister, I'll do it!"

The two could not resolve their dispute.

Ji Fuyao directly suppressed Ye Chen by raising her hand.

Ye Chen wore a bitter expression, "Senior Sister, it's just cooking—do we really need to?"

Ji Fuyao busied herself while saying, "Ye Chen Junior Brother, while you've been away from Xuan Qing Feng, try my cooking."

At that moment.

Lu Xuan slowly rose from the recliner outside Cao Wu, stepped into Cao Wu, and filled a jug with Qingming Heavenly Water in that ancient large vat.

Ji Fuyao was somewhat curious.

Lu Xuan walked out of Cao Wu with a smile, leaving Ji Fuyao and Ye Chen a back view, saying, "Fuyao, Ye Chen, these few days when you cook, don't make my portion."

Ye Chen puzzled, "Master, why is that?"

Ji Fuyao's beautiful eyes shone with divine radiance as she peered out from Cao Wu with an exquisite face, tilting her head to look at Lu Xuan, "Master, what's wrong?"

Lu Xuan chuckled, "I'm going out for a few days, maybe even ten or more days; return date undecided."

He knew well that taking Chen Zhangsheng as a disciple this time would be an arduous task.

After all, this Old Third is really good at surviving!

Ji Fuyao looked at Lu Xuan, who seemed slightly excited, her beautiful eyes slightly furrowed, her mind racing.

Master usually is carefree, the only thing he cares about is their cultivation.

Master regards imperial weapons as dirt, top-tier techniques as nothing; he cares nothing for all things in the world… only disciples can make him concerned!

And yet Master said he'd go out for a few days?

Then the truth is only one!

That is…… Master is going to take a new disciple!

Upon thinking of this.

Ji Fuyao asked with an expectant expression, "Master, this time you're taking in a junior brother or junior sister?"

……
