Chapter 216: Jiêmie Sect's Extermination Order!

Congratulations, Ancestor, on your triumphant return!

Everyone thought the Stone Demon clan's ancestor had already been executed, so their Blood Demon clan could survive.

Chen Zhangsheng remained silent, and quickly came to the source of the Blood River.

This is an extraordinarily deep lake; the lake water surges, throwing up countless withered bones, which include humans, other races, demons, and even Blood Demon clansmen.

The Blood Demon clan cultivates using qi and blood, thus they have slaughtered countless living beings.

Chen Zhangsheng directly threw large amounts of medicinal powder into the blood-colored lake: rosemary, Nine Turns Soul-Scattering Powder, and Netherfall Bowel-Severing Powder...

One day later.

The Blood Demon clansmen were dazed and confused.

Two days later.

The Blood Demon clansmen all saw illusions.

Several days later.

The Blood Demon clansmen leapt into the Blood River one after another, their bodies turning into the river, annihilated by the mysterious power of the Dao patterns, becoming part of the endless Blood River.

Thus, all the Blood Demon clansmen died suddenly.

Then came considerate salvation, scattering ashes, and a one-stop service for passage to the next life...

Chen Zhangsheng flicked his sleeve, took out an ancient black disc, and directly stored the boundless Blood River inside the black disc.

Next, he dispatched numerous wooden puppet golems to completely empty the Blood Demon clan's territory, then restored the scene, finally tore open the void, and after finishing, he flicked his sleeves and left this secluded valley.

Several days later.

Chen Zhangsheng returned to the Grand Dao Sect.

He handed over several spatial rings to Lu Xuan, saying, "Master, this is all the wealth of the Blood Demon clan and the Stone Demon clan."

Lu Xuan extended his divine sense inside and took a glance.

Inside the spatial ring, there was a top-grade spirit crystal vein.

There were also vast amounts of top-grade spirit stones, piled up like mountains, too many to count.

Numerous formation disks!

Numerous high-grade spiritual herbs!

Other high-grade cultivation techniques and pills were present in enormous quantities!

Lu Xuan gave a faint smile, casually threw it to Chen Zhangsheng, saying, "You can keep it; I don't need it."

Chen Zhangsheng caught it, and a ripple stirred in his heart.

He asked himself, "Is there anyone else in this world who, like my master, treats supreme treasures as dirt?"

None.

Chen Zhangsheng let out a soft sigh, having to admit that after becoming Lu Xuan's disciple, he was very satisfied.

More importantly, his karma had all shifted to his master.

Lu Xuan asked, "How is Ji Fuyao doing now? Let your avatar check."

Chen Zhangsheng said with a smile, "Senior Sister is currently destroying the remaining halls of the Heavenly Net Palace; she is utterly unstoppable! I secretly sent wooden puppet golems to escort her in the shadows; there's an eighty to ninety percent chance nothing will happen."

Lu Xuan nodded, "Not bad."

Chen Zhangsheng said, "Although many major powers are assisting in the battle, Senior Sister is also continually growing; she has fought all the way, and her strength has undergone another transformation. If nothing unexpected happens, she will soon step into the half-emperor realm!"

Half-emperor!

Lu Xuan smiled.

This is excellent!

You should know he still has a task reward for 'letting Ji Fuyao reach the Saint King realm' that he hasn't claimed.

If Ji Fuyao steps into the half-emperor realm, it would be overfulfilling the task, and the reward must be very generous.

He greatly anticipates it.

Next, Lu Xuan and Chen Zhangsheng lay again in front of Cao Wu, leisurely watching the clouds roll and unfold, their hearts exceedingly clear.

After a while, Chen Zhangsheng entered Cao Wu to cook.

It was his turn.

Today he is making spicy golden crow, golden crow ribs, and mouth-watering golden crow.

A faint meat aroma wafted from Cao Wu, making Lu Xuan rub his stomach.

It must be said, Chen Zhangsheng's cooking skill has now surpassed that of Ji Fuyao and Ye Chen.

Let's give praise!

Soon.

Chen Zhangsheng sent a voice transmission to Ye Chen, then placed the steaming hot dishes on the stone table.

The three began to eat.

Ancient Desolate Forbidden Zone.

The territory of the Jiêmie Sect, a twisted forest.

The Jiêmie Elder, accompanied by the many elders, had already returned to the ancient hall.

Inside the ancient hall, it was dim and lightless.

Only the faint light of a waning moon, formed by the Dao patterns evolving above the forbidden zone's firmament, fell, scattering; the white bones in the corners were faintly visible; a dozen or so elders stood in the main hall, standing like rotting wood; under the dim light, some elders' robes revealed dense, strange red hair.

The Jiêmie Elder remained silent.

Everyone else also remained silent.

This time the losses are grave; a half-step Sovereign was just blasted to death by the power of the Heavenly Dao!

The Ji Mie Old Man wore a grim expression; he couldn't figure it out, "How can the White-Robed Emperor display the power of a half-step Sovereign?"

A moment of silence.

An elder said, "Patriarch, perhaps the White-Robed Emperor is not a half-step Sovereign; his combat power merely approaches it infinitely!"

Hearing this, the Ji Mie Old Man furrowed his brows slightly and fell into deep thought.

She recalled the words of the Xuanji Holy Lord: "The Heavenly Dao of Nan Huang has never changed."

Adding the death of Elder Qian Duo, it is enough to prove that the Heavenly Dao of Nan Huang still slays half-step Sovereigns!

Shortly after.

The Ji Mie Old Man suddenly laughed, his cold laughter swirling in the ancient hall like ghostly qi, and he slowly said, "If the White-Robed Emperor is not a half-step Sovereign, then it's easily settled!"

Many elders asked, "Patriarch, do you want our sect's Emperor realm disciples to step out of the Ancient Desolate Forbidden Zone and capture Ji Fuyao?"

Know that the Ji Mie Sect still has some Emperor realm disciples sleeping in the Great Tomb.

However, the Xuanji Holy Lord and several other giants of the Ancient Desolate Forbidden Zone have issued an order: those stained with strange and unknown powers may not leave the Ancient Desolate Forbidden Zone before the Heavenly Earth Change begins!

This is an agreement reached between the several forbidden zones of Nan Huang and the external giants.

The Ji Mie Old Man shook his head lightly, "For now we need not send our sect's disciples, otherwise we will surely alarm the Xuanji Holy Lord to come and judge! I do not wish to clash with the Xuanji Holy Lord for the time being."

Many elders asked, "Then we shall support a new power outside the forbidden zone!"

The Ji Mie Old Man said, "Naturally we must support a new power to continue providing us with vital essence! Secondly, I will issue a death order against Nan Huang!"

Death order!

Many elders started slightly, "Would that not mean we utterly offend the Great Dao Sect?"

The Ji Mie Old Man coldly laughed, "The Great Dao Sect is no longer the strength it had when the founding ancestor was alive. After countless ages and the vicissitudes of time, the Great Dao Sect can merely survive because they have never entered the world, only contending for the Sovereign's throne! A mere waning power, what does my Ji Mie Sect have to fear?"

Many elders nodded, indicating their agreement.

After all, since the founding ancestor of the Great Dao Sect relinquished the Sovereign's throne, the Great Dao Sect has fallen from its peak!

Now that endless ages have passed, myriad ancient powers regard the Great Dao Sect's actions with contempt.

Even the founding ancestor could make such a foolish decision—how could the whole sect fare any better?

The Ji Mie Old Man continued, "We are determined to obtain Ji Fuyao's reincarnation secret art! In the past I owed you, I moved the entire Ji Mie Sect into the Ancient Desolate Forbidden Zone, causing many elders and disciples to die horribly after being tainted by strange power; now I wish to make amends to everyone.

If we can obtain the reincarnation secret art, this time we can fully charge the Sovereign's path; even if we fall, we have a chance of rebirth! My action is utterly selfless, for the Ji Mie Sect!"

Many elders were speechless.

Indeed, the events of that year were the Ji Mie Old Ancestor acting stubbornly alone.

But who dares to say half a word of refusal?

At that moment, a gray-robed elder entered the main hall and said, "Patriarch, the Xuanji Holy Lord has sent a message."

The Ji Mie Old Man said, "Speak."

The gray-robed elder said, "She warns us that if we discover any elder or disciple of our sect stepping out of the forbidden zone before the Heavenly Earth Change begins, she will kill them."

The Ji Mie Old Man gave a cold snort, "For now I will not allow anyone to step out of the forbidden zone."

Many elders breathed a sigh of relief.

The Ji Mie Old Man took out a black circular stone and said slowly, "This is the Cangyuan Stone unique to my Ji Mie Sect, capable of drawing forth a cultivator's memory images. Next, Elder Qian Yun will refine a batch of Cangyuan Stones and place them in the various merchant guilds of the provinces.

As long as we can capture and kill Ji Fuyao, we can directly obtain all of her memory images."
