Chapter 1571: That plain white dress!

"You damned things, dare to toy with us?"

The gray-robed old man's voice was filled with killing intent.

The hemp-clad old woman was frightened and immediately knelt on the ground, 'Sir, we really don't know anything at all!'

Plop!

Plop!

The other remnants also knelt on the ground, trembling with fear.

They had no idea what had happened.

Why did the Destiny Qi vanish into thin air, disappearing without a trace!

The gray-robed old man sneered, 'In this place, only our two forces exist—if not you, then who? I originally gave you a way to live, but you brought this upon yourselves; you cannot survive!'

He slapped his big hand, directly sucking the hemp-clad old woman before him, his hand striking her crown as he began to search her soul.

Huh?

The gray-robed old man furrowed his brow slightly; from the hemp-clad old woman's Sea of Divine Sense, he actually found nothing.

She had no knowledge of this!

But he still did not spare the hemp-clad old woman; his big hand suddenly exerted force, directly crushing her head into a mist of blood.

Extermination!

The gray-robed old man once again seized an elder from the Tianfeng Empire and searched his soul again.

This person likewise knew nothing.

Pfft!

But he could not escape death.

The killing intent on the gray-robed old man's face intensified; he continuously searched souls, exterminating over a dozen Dao Lord Realm cultivators in succession.

But still he gained nothing.

The people of the Tianfeng Empire simply had no idea what had happened.

What a truly strange affair!

The gray-robed old man wore an expression of utter disbelief, 'How could this Destiny Qi just disappear?'

Numerous Gu Clan experts unleashed Investigation Gu to survey this region of heaven and earth.

But there was not the slightest trace of any other aura!

"Could the Destiny Qi have fled on its own?' the gray-robed old man could only speculate.

The Gu Clan's experts burned with rage, having made the trip for nothing!

The gray-robed old man looked at the remnants of the Tianfeng Empire, 'You trash, implant Slave Gu into their bodies and cast them into the Starry Sky Battlefield.'

……

A region of spatial turbulence.

Over a dozen Gu Clan members wielded Space Gu as they traversed the void.

Within the spatial turbulence lay endless gangfeng, cutting through heaven and earth like blades.

Sizzle!

A Gu Clan member, caught off guard, was sliced in half by the gangfeng blades, his aura extinguished.

The leading Gu Clan man stared fixedly at the Destiny Qi at the heart of the spatial turbulence, 'Damn it! When we arrived we had over thirty people; now, for this Destiny Qi, half of us have died.'

Others said, 'Elder Zhou, this Destiny Qi is very dense.'

This was their sole consolation.

Not far away, the Destiny Qi resided at the center of the spatial turbulence like a crimson eye, emitting scarlet Divine Light that turned the surrounding gangfeng blood-red.

This Destiny Qi is indeed very dense!

Not long after.

The Gu Clan man led the group to finally obtain this Destiny Qi, sealing it within a Containment Gu.

"Alas, Elder Zhou, we have fewer than ten left!' someone sighed.

Elder Zhou held the Containment Gu in his palm, 'Fortunately we have gained something.'

They used the Space Gu to go through great trouble, escaping from the spatial turbulence; Elder Zhou examined the Containment Gu closely, his expression grim, 'Damn it! For this Destiny Qi, we have suffered heavy losses.'

Just then.

Chen Zhangsheng and Lu Xuan shifted over.

'Better lucky than early.'

Chen Zhangsheng smiled, etched a strange Dao Mark in the air, directly snatching the Containment Gu from Elder Zhou's hand and replacing it with an ordinary stone.

This is a Substitution Dao Mark!

Huh?

Elder Zhou rubbed his eyes, stared at the stone in his hand, and froze on the spot, 'What just happened?'

The others were equally dumbfounded, 'Huh?!'

Elder Zhou suddenly clenched his fist, crushing the stone into powder, looking around and shouting, 'Damn it! Who did this?! Get out here, old man!'

Heaven and earth remained silent.

Chen Zhangsheng and Lu Xuan had already left.

Over the next few days, reports of stolen Destiny Qi spread one after another.

The entire Changsheng Sect flew into a rage!

The Destiny Qi scattered throughout the outside world all vanished strangely; even if one moment two people were chasing it, the next moment it was gone.

Within the Changsheng Sect, Elder Mo Gu fumed, 'Damn it, this must be the work of the Hehuan Sect!'

But the Hehuan Sect also felt wronged.

It's just that the Heaven's Mandate Qi they had taken a liking to also vanished into thin air!

Elder Mogu ordered, "Within the branch sect, as well as the Lingxiao Sword Sect, the Zheng family… you guard the Heaven's Mandate Qi you have each seized; on a chosen day I will personally seal each one."

The Lingxiao Sword Sect's branch sect.

Elder Li Mo paced back and forth inside the cave dwelling of Grand Elder Wang Tiepfeng.

Wang Tiepfeng said, "How strange. Could there be some great thief?"

Li Mo looked toward the depths of the cave dwelling, where countless seals were in place, because inside there were several strands of seized Heaven's Mandate Qi awaiting Elder Mogu to personally collect; he felt a bit worried, "Grand Elder, you say this great thief won't come to steal our branch sect's Heaven's Mandate Qi, right?"

Wang Tiepfeng chuckled, "Here there are countless seals, with many elders guarding outside, you and I staring intently; if it just vanished like that, I would literally eat ten catties of feces..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Mo pointed at the seal deep in the cave dwelling, "Grand Elder, Grand Elder, the Heaven's Mandate Qi is gone..."

The Grand Elder suddenly turned his head, he was utterly dumbfounded!

The Heaven's Mandate Qi really is gone!

At that moment, Chen Zhangsheng and Lu Xuan slipped away quietly.

Half a day later, the Heaven's Mandate Qi of the Changsheng Sect's branch sect was also stolen!

Elder Li Mo and Grand Elder Wang Tiepfeng stared at each other, "Ah???"

Soon.

From within the Changsheng Sect's branch sect came the roars of many elders, "Sun Liangye, you are bullying people too much!"

"You Hehuan Sect falsely claim to be the natural way of the Dao, simply despicable, shameless, and vulgar!"

"You can't beat us in a fight, so you resort to stealing?"

They were certain it was the Hehuan Sect's doing!

Since the Heaven's Mandate Qi was stolen, they could only dispatch those Gu Clan members who seek the Heaven's Mandate Qi to the starry battlefield.

In an instant, the war escalated, blood flowed like a river.

The original course of the historical river undoubtedly accelerated!

In the northern starry sky, Chen Zhangsheng looked at the Heaven's Mandate Qi in his hand; he did not wish to absorb it, he turned to Lu Xuan, "Master, shall I give this Heaven's Mandate Qi to Yang Tianming?"

Lu Xuan said with an indifferent expression, "Do as you like. Alright, I should also be leaving."

He directly activated the Heaven-Passing Spatial Array Pattern, directly left, and returned to Yingzhao Star.

……

Chen River.

Qingqiu wore a plain white dress, her figure stunningly beautiful, her long hair cascading over her snowy neck, her jade feet light as she wandered above the Chen River; upon her body flowed a blue-and-white sword rhythm, like that of a great sword immortal.

The Chen River region lies at the southern border of the Cangyun Star Sea, formed by the convergence of hundreds of stars; because many stars scattered and formed a long river-like shape, it got its name.

"Hiss hiss hiss!"

Numerous stars sparkled with brilliant starlight, the Chen River like a long sword plunged into the starry sky, also quite magnificent.

This place is a territory controlled by the Changsheng Sect's subordinate forces.

Qingqiu's divine sense swept over; on the frontier stars, sword rhythm abounded, strong cultivators were not many, yet the scattered Heaven's Mandate Qi was scarce.

Figures of the human race wandered above the Void, holding Gu items, collecting those Heaven's Mandate Qi.

With a thought from Qingqiu, beneath her jade feet, the invincible sword domain slowly flowed, beginning to refine the sword rhythm while simultaneously refining the Heaven's Mandate Qi.

Wherever she passed, a storm was directly derived!

Soon, not far away.

Many members of the Li family noticed the anomaly at Qingqiu's location; they directly stepped through the void, killing intent surging, "Who dares to refine the Heaven's Mandate Qi? Are you seeking death?"
