Chapter 291: Powerful Descent, Reactions from All Sides

Above the void, the silhouette of the Howling Moon Silver Wolf Xiao Bai appeared.

Its silver-white hair fluttered in the wind, its mystic pupils flashed, killing intent fully revealed, and its terrifying aura shook heaven and earth.

Behind it stood fifty celestial beasts, each enormous beyond compare, blotting out the sky and covering the sun.

Each exuded a powerful True Immortal aura.

Immediately, Xiao Bai's aura of a Nine Revolutions Half-Step Golden Immortal unfolded, and boundless primordial immortal power burst forth.

With a thought, it activated the Heavenly Beast Divine Ability, Howl Shocking Heaven and Earth.

"Aoo—"

After a roar, a majestic voice echoed above the Void of the Eight Great Immortal Isles.

"How dare you move my Azure Cloud disciple?"

"Very well, the Phoenix Immortal Clan need not exist."

Having said that, Xiao Bai's terrifying pressure swept down, instantly shaking the entire God Radiant Heavenly Domain and the lands of the Eight Great Immortal Isles.

Upon these words, all cultivators in the Eight Great Immortal Isles trembled.

"What's going on! The Phoenix Edict just came out not long ago, and now what's this trouble?!"

"Are they chasing Azure Cloud disciples? The Phoenix Edict includes that, so it must be a powerful cultivator from the Azure Cloud Sect rushing here!"

"Hiss! 'The Phoenix Immortal Clan need not exist'—what an overbearing statement! My God Radiant Heavenly Domain is about to be overturned!"

The leaders of the major powers in the God Radiant Heavenly Domain felt the terrifying aura coming from the void, and all trembled greatly.

Most of the forces had originally planned to follow the Phoenix Edict's orders and start moving, but who would have thought such a change would occur!

With such a terrifying aura, just what level of expert could it be!

No, it's better to just watch and see.

Such a struggle between superpowers is not something they can participate in.

…

Elsewhere, in a hidden place on the Heavenly Phoenix Immortal Isle.

"Great! A powerful cultivator from the Azure Cloud Sect has arrived!"

"This aura is actually above that of the Old Ancestor! Azure Cloud has sent such a powerful one!"

Upon hearing this, a pale-faced old woman holding a staff spoke up: "Immortal Sovereign, it seems the Grand Elder and the other traitors are surely doomed."

"He actually dared to issue the Phoenix Edict to hunt down the Heavenly Maiden and the two Heavenly Pride disciples of Azure Cloud—truly self-inflicted."

The two speakers were none other than the escaped Phoenix Immortal Sovereign Huang Rou and the Immortal Clan's High Priest.

"Fortunately, the Heavenly Maiden is not currently in mortal danger, having been escorted by the Grand Offering to the God Might Immortal Isle."

"High Priest, how many of the elders and clansmen who came out with us remain?"

Huang Rou withdrew her gaze, sighed, and asked.

Yesterday's battle was too tragic, causing many clansmen and elders to fall.

The sole piece of good news is that just now the Grand Offering sent a message via a token, saying it had safely escorted the Heavenly Maiden to the God Might Isle.

Upon hearing this, the High Priest's face showed sorrow as he said: "Reporting to the Immortal Sovereign, there are still twenty elders: five True Immortal elders, ten high-rank Heavenly Immortal elders, and five low-rank Heavenly Immortal elders."

"Additionally, there are still a thousand clansmen, of whom twenty are Heavenly Immortals, the rest being below Heavenly Immortal."

Now, following the Immortal Sovereign's side, only this handful of clansmen and elders remain.

The rest either defected to the Grand Elder or failed to escape.

If the Grand Elder had a shred of conscience, he ought to…

No! It wouldn't do something like that upon birth!

In secret, they pledged allegiance to the Domain Lord, becoming a rebellious immortal clan.

They plotted against the Heavenly Maiden and slaughtered their own clansmen.

They truly deserve death!

Thinking of this, the High Priest grew ever more angry, his grip on the staff trembling with rage.

"Ah, truly hateful!"

"The Old Ancestors are all under his control, and he actually possesses so many Immortal Treasures given by the Domain Lord, plus several powerful ones sent by the Domain Lord."

"However, the powerful cultivator from the Azure Cloud Sect has arrived; they won't be able to act arrogantly for long."

"High Priest, have the clansmen and elders make ready; when the time comes we will strike and take back everything!"

Huang Rou gave the order coldly, then turned and left.

…

At the same time, inside the small world of the Phoenix Immortal Clan.

At this moment, whether clansmen who had defected to the Grand Elder or the elders, all were in an uproar.

The Grand Elder had just ordered the issuance of the Phoenix Edict, when a powerful cultivator from Azure Cloud arrived?

Moreover, that person's aura is incredibly terrifying! He said he would exterminate the Phoenix Immortal Clan!

For a moment, panic began to spread wildly within the Immortal Clan's garrison.

At this time, within the Phoenix Immortal Palace, the Grand Elder stood respectfully before several figures.

"Sir, regarding this matter……"

Before the Grand Elder could finish, a figure interrupted him.

"No need to say more; the Phoenix Immortal Clan under your control has already formally pledged allegiance to my lord, so my lord will naturally protect you—there's nothing to worry about."

"Just what background does this Azure Cloud Immortal Sect have? I've never even heard of it."

"The Azure Ancient Heavenly Domain—isn't that the territory governed by Domain Lord Yang? And the powers there aren't they the Three Great Academies?"

"This matter is indeed suspicious; could there be some change? No, I must report it quickly."

Upon hearing this, another figure beside them nodded, "This matter must be reported immediately; if this Azure Cloud is not under control, it must be eradicated completely."

After saying that, he looked toward those behind him and ordered, "Your Phoenix Immortal Clan's main task now is to gather resources for my lord; you need not worry about anything else."

Upon hearing this, the anxious great elder finally let out a breath of relief.

With the Domain Lord present, the Azure Cloud Immortal Sect, no matter how strong, can do nothing against our Phoenix Immortal Clan.

"Thank you, my lords; I will now go instruct the people below to increase the gathering efforts."

……

Elsewhere, the Mu Family of the God Might Heavenly Domain.

In an ancient-style, grand room, two figures were conversing.

"Don't panic, Yun'er; the Sixth and Seventh Elder Ancestors have already gone to meet up with Shi Tianjiao and the others."

"Moreover, the experts of your sect have already arrived, so Shi Tianjiao and his companions are absolutely safe."

A figure spoke up; this person was none other than Mu Lie, the grandfather of Yunlan, the Immortal Lord of the Mu Family.

Beside him, the handsome, ethereal youth in white robes was Yunlan.

"Thank you, grandfather and the two elder ancestors," Yunlan said; hearing his grandfather say that, he finally relaxed a little.

I never expected that in just over ten days, so many things would happen.
