Chapter 444

Even among the lowly forces, there is a chain of contempt.

Ye Chen stared in shock, "Me?"

Chen Zhangsheng pointed to the huge black abyss behind him and said, "This is the legendary Fallen Star Sea. Our Tai Chu Realm is too close to it, almost at its edge; it won't take many Tai Chu stars before they fall into it."

The closer one is to the Fallen Star Sea, the more their stars are considered trash.

Ye Chen pursed his lips, "Uh..."

Ji Fuyao's eyes flashed as she asked, "What about those supremes who emerged from the Five Regions of the Tai Chu Realm before? How are they doing now?"

Chen Zhangsheng said, "The situation is not good. Only Liu Ruyan has broken through to the Star Venerable Realm."

Others either died or were injured.

Most have been reduced to beasts of burden.

In an instant, Ye Chen was shocked, "Beasts of burden?"

Those are supremes!

The supreme who tread the path of supremacy!

Who knows how many schemes were piled up with endless bones just to reach the pinnacle of the supreme path, and yet this is the result?

Ascension is a scam!

Ye Chen asked, "Third junior brother, how are the talents of the Fallen Star Sea faring in strength?"

Chen Zhangsheng gazed pensively and said, "What is a genius? In the Four Great Star Rings, they are completely different."

Perhaps the son of an ancient ancestor is born already at the Star Venerable Realm!

They cannot be spoken of on the same day!

Upon hearing that, Ye Chen was utterly shocked.

Born already at the Star Venerable Realm!

That's just a baby!

Actually, before this foray into the starry sky, Ye Chen considered himself a genius.

But now, upon comparison, he finally realizes how vast the gap is!

Within the Fallen Star Sea, the geniuses of the great forces crush those of the small forces right from the start!

Lu Xuan said lightly, "You don't need to be discouraged; it's merely the Star Venerable Realm."

You are the ones who will someday step onto the pinnacle of the Great Dao!

Do the top-tier forces even have any sort?

As soon as those words were spoken, Ye Chen's previously icy heart immediately ignited again!

It ignited!

The girl in the green dress took a bite and said, "Follow Lu Xuan, and invincibility is just a matter of time. Lu Xuan is nearly invincible in the Fallen Star Sea."

Lu Xuan's face twitched.

When did he become invincible in the Fallen Star Sea again?

Ye Chen instantly clenched his fists, "Master, I'll strive!"

Ji Fuyao and Ye Chen both ignited!

Cultivation!

Battle!

We must never let our master down!

Soon.

Lu Xuan finished eating and lay back on the Yan Chuang.

At that moment, a system voice sounded in his ear.

Ding! A time-limited disciple cultivation mission has been issued!

Within ten days, help the senior disciple Ji Fuyao refine the Extreme Cold Three Thousand Flame!

The voice fell silent!

Lu Xuan's lips curled slightly, "Finally, another mission has arrived."

He said to Ji Fuyao, "Fuyao, from now on I will go with you to the Northern Plains to refine the Extreme Cold Three Thousand Flame for you."

Ji Fuyao blinked slightly and said, "Okay, Master."

…… (ellipsis) No names.

Eastern Wasteland.

Strange Abyss.

Previously, Lu Xuan erupted in a heaven-shaking battle here, directly shocking the entire Eastern Wasteland.

The hegemon-level powers of the Eastern Wasteland were all stirred!

The Ji clan, the Ancient Chen clan, and the Yun Jian Sect...

Boom!

Crack!

Void Rending, space twisted.

From within the void rift, an incomparably ancient spirit vessel shot forth, immense as a mountain range, spanning above the void, its surface inscribed with profound dao patterns; wherever it passed, space trembled.

Before the ancient spirit vessel stood a colossal banner inscribed with an ancient character: 'Chen'.

This is the Ancient Chen clan!

Chen Beifeng, the patriarch of the Chen clan, looked grim as he gazed down upon the Sikong clan's tens-of-thousands-of-li Great Emperor, his face utterly silent.

The Sikong family was exterminated!

The battle is not only what happened before!

Who exactly is it?

The Sikong clan is a supreme-level power, possessing supreme-level trump cards, yet they were so easily wiped out!

Many members of the Chen clan felt a sense of crisis.

After all, the Chen clan's strength is comparable to that of the Sikong clan!

This mysterious force could wipe out the Sikong clan so quickly, and could also easily destroy the Chen clan!

Several Chen clan elders extended their divine sense, continually probing the Sikong clan's territory.

After a moment, they all shook their heads: 'All of the Sikong clan's cultivation resources have been taken away!'

The strange power of the Mysterious Abyss has also been greatly depleted; numerous slaves have all dropped dead!

Chen Beifeng kept frowning, 'This is absolutely a meticulously planned extermination and seizure of treasures! The force that struck is immensely strong, extremely fast, far beyond our estimates.'

Even the Sikong clan's 'Divine Splendor Sovereign Heaven Technique' cannot withstand it; this enemy must be very familiar with the Sikong clan.

Just then.

Boom!

Another immensely terrifying aura appeared above the void.

It is the Heaven-Penetrating Sword Intent!

Chen Beifeng looked into the distance and saw a huge sword, like a mountain range, traversing the void and shooting forward, like a white river surging in the sky.

Hiss!

Chen Beifeng said lightly, 'The Yun Jian Sect has arrived!'

The Yun Jian Sect is likewise a hegemon-level power of the Eastern Wasteland, and previously also had a sword-path supreme cultivator who attained the Dao!

This is a force that makes the Ancient Chen clan feel apprehensive!

Soon.

The Yun Jian Sect's huge sword tore through the void and arrived above the Sikong clan.

Chen Beifeng slightly cupped his hands, 'Fellow Daoist Yun Xiaoyao!'

Upon the huge sword, a green-clothed sword cultivator stood with hands behind his back, bearing the azure heavens, and likewise cupped his hands in salute: 'Fellow Daoist Chen Beifeng.'

A faint sword intent surged around Yun Xiaoyao's body. He gazed at the Sikong clan's devastation, furrowed his brows, and said, 'Who exactly struck? To be able to wipe out the Sikong clan in such a short time...'

Chen Beifeng showed a worried expression, 'That mysterious force has probably already left!'

Yun Xiaoyao lowered his voice, 'Could it be that the Ji clan secretly did this?'

Chen Beifeng looked solemn, 'Even if the Ji clan took action, they would surely have to pay a price. Ji Yue seems to have no reason to act.'

After a moment, another supreme-level power descended.

The Ancient Luo clan!

Now that the Sikong clan has been wiped out, the entire Eastern Wasteland only has four supreme-level powers left!

The Ji clan, with four suprem

The remaining Yun Jian Sect, the ancient Chen family, and the ancient Luo family—these three major powers each possess a supreme cultivator who has attained the Dao.

The Ji family hasn't arrived yet.

The ancestors of the three forces gathered, each sensing a looming danger.

Yun Xiaoyao said, "If the Ji family really did this, then we're in danger too."

Chen Beifeng frowned, puzzled, "Could it be that the path to supremacy remains closed, making the Ji family's ancestor Ji Yue unable to hold back?"

The Luo family ancestor declared, "This age is destined to become incredibly bloody! Even a supreme power can be wiped out like this! The cost of attaining the supreme Dao far surpasses that of several past ages."

Just as the three powers were talking, the void ripped open again.

Boom!

Crack!

A terrifying aura surged like a boundless ocean; Ji Yue the ancestor, wearing a gray robe and a grave expression, emerged from the void rift, with over a dozen ancestors trailing behind him.

Upon seeing this, the ancestors of the Yun Jian Sect and the three major powers immediately dispersed.

Ji Yue the ancestor scanned the scene, turned his gaze to the three powers, and gave a teasing smile, "What? Do you suspect our Ji family was behind this?"

Yun Xiaoyao, Chen Beifeng, and the others said nothing.

But they clearly suspected the Ji family.

Ji Yue's gaze darkened, "If the Ji family intended to move against you, we would have acted long ago; why wait until now?"

"The Sikong family's downfall wasn't our Ji family's doing!"

Yun Xiaoyao, Chen Beifeng, and the others could only smile, saying, "We also believe it wasn't the Ji family."

Ji Yue swept his sleeve aside and stepped close to the crowd, "You arrived early—have you noticed any clue?"

……
