Chapter 417: The Wushi Bell rings

Yin Qi shook his head and could only sigh.

With all parties joining forces, even if he were to step forward, it would be impossible to dispel their intention to invade Purple Mountain.

However, the Big Dipper Star also has its own heritage; it even possesses Quasi-Emperors, so he does not need to worry about the Ancient Race making a comeback and completely suppressing the human race.

Gai Jiuyou, a Quasi-Emperor powerhouse of the human race, has been invincible in the world for eight thousand years.

At that time, the Qing Emperor had only been gone for two thousand-plus years.

If it weren't for being so close to the Qing Emperor's era, if placed in the present, he might truly have had a chance to prove the Dao and become an Emperor.

Besides Gai Jiuyou, the human race also has Great Saints like Gu Tianshu. Super-powerful forces that have produced Great Emperors, such as the Ji family and the Jiang family, all have Great Saints self-sealed within divine sources.

If they were all to emerge, they could fully contend with the Ancient Race.

It is just that the major forces only ever focus on their own interests; if not forced into a corner, they likely would not exhaust their heritage.

Just like in the original work, when faced with the coercion of the Ancient Race, it was Ye Fan who ran around, playing god and acting like a ghost, and with the addition of Jiang Taixu's appearance, the Ancient Race was forced to not bully people too much.

These terrifyingly incomparable thunderbolts, each one enough to strike a cultivator of the Four Extremities Realm to death, have now become nourishment for Yin Qi's cultivation. He is completely naked, and every inch of his flesh and blood is blooming with divine radiance.

Boom—!

Deep in the desert, terrifying thunderbolts strike down one after another, finally merging into a sheet and transforming into a sea of thunder.

Yin Qi sits cross-legged, letting the thunderbolts strike his body.

Next, he must break through to the Dao Palace Realm, and a thunder tribulation will descend.

It is unknown how much time passed, but the violent thunder finally dissipated. Yin Qi also suddenly opened his eyes, two rays of essence light shooting out.

Ten days later, a melodious bell sound startled Yin Qi awake.

After crossing the tribulation, Yin Qi quietly returned to the Holy City.

As a Dao-Slashing King of the Jiang family and the number one powerhouse on the surface of the Eastern Wasteland, he also participated in this operation.

Yin Qi does not know if this was Jiang Taixu's idea or the collective decision of the Jiang family.

The Great Saints of the major forces did not appear.

During this tribulation, he not only stepped into the Dao Palace Realm but also condensed a Golden Core.

Besides these two big pieces of news, the most sensational news is Jiang Taixu's grand wedding, which was originally prepared to be held in half a month, but had to be postponed because of the plan to attack Purple Mountain.

Once a warship enters the starry sky, it is difficult to absorb powerful thunder.

He either cultivates or disguises himself to enter the major stone-gambling workshops, taking away source stones one by one, while simultaneously monitoring the situation at Purple Mountain.

Even when refining warships, the Thunder Pool cannot be used.

Because this place is neither like the Yang God World, where special thunder is born every moment, nor is it like the boundless Primordial Continent.

The initial stage of the Golden Core is roughly equivalent to the Four Extremities Realm.

……

It is just a pity that this world is not suitable for the cultivation of the Yang God World; it is impossible to condense thunder into thunder water.

However, these things have nothing to do with him for the time being.

Spending over a hundred thousand catties of pure source, Yin Qi purchased a simple and elegant large mansion in the south of the Holy City. After setting up a defensive array, he quietly left the Holy City and entered the depths of a desert.

The Wushi Bell!

He can feel the endless Imperial Might contained within this bell sound.

Yin Qi knows that the major forces have invaded Purple Mountain.

Sure enough, news arrived the next day.

The major forces joined hands to invade Purple Mountain, carrying four Imperial Artifacts: the Ji family's Void Mirror, the Yaoguang Sacred Land's Dragon-Patterned Black Gold Cauldron, the Jiang family's Hengyu Furnace, and the Yaochi Sacred Land's Western Emperor Pagoda.

Inside Purple Mountain, they did not find the Wushi Bell, but they discovered the Wushi Scripture; it is just a pity that no matter what, they could not open it, so they continued deeper and finally encountered the awakened Ancient Race head-on.

Back when Yin Qi killed the Primordial Ancestor King, it wasn't long before many Ancient Race powerhouses were startled awake.

After all, it was an Ancestor King who was killed, which indicated that a powerhouse had snuck into Purple Mountain, forcing the Ancient Race to wake up and rouse many powerhouses to investigate the situation.

As a result, just as they were about to go out, they bumped right into the major forces.

Immediately, the Ancient Race was enraged.

In the Primordial Era, the human race was merely blood-food they kept in captivity, to be taken and seized at will. Now, they dared to sneak into their lair, which was truly an unforgivable crime, so they angrily attacked on the spot.

Among these Ancient Race members, there were two Ancestor Kings, and the others were basically all above the Immortal Terrace Realm.

When the Ancient Race attacked, although the major forces were horrified, they did not back down.

Although we are weak, we have Imperial Artifacts.

Jiang Taixu is worthy of being the God King; holding the Hengyu Furnace, he single-handedly held off the two great Ancestor Kings. The other Ancient Race members suffered heavy losses under the attack of the three Imperial Artifacts, so more Ancestor Kings woke up one after another.

In the end, the great battle between the two sides "angered" the Wushi Bell.

Once the Wushi Bell rang, sheets of the Ancient Race turned into fly ash. As for the major forces, they were forcibly expelled from Purple Mountain; it did not hurt them, as the Wushi Bell's purpose is to suppress the Ancient Race.

Having witnessed the power of the Ancient Race—with over a dozen Ancestor Kings appearing alone—the major forces also ceased their efforts.

They finally discovered that even with Imperial Artifacts in hand, if they are not fully awakened, they probably cannot even handle a Saint King, let alone a Great Saint.

Thus, everyone immediately broke up, each returning to their own homes and finding their own mothers, leaving only the local forces of Pingyan City trembling in fear.

Damn it.

If you all leave, then when the Ancient Race emerges, won't they come to trouble us first!

Consequently, those who could run all fled.

This caused what was originally a prosperous large city to directly decline.

For the following months, the eyes of the major forces were all on Purple Mountain, closely monitoring the Ancient Race to see if they would emerge, but they waited and waited without any news.

Gradually, the major forces also relaxed their vigilance.

In reality, the Ancient Race of the Undying Emperor's lineage did not want to not emerge, nor did they not emerge; they were just acting in the shadows, wanting to find and wake other sleeping Ancient Race members to avoid being besieged by the human race.

They are very strong, and even have Great Saints.

But if the human race were to fight for their lives and fully awaken the Imperial Artifacts regardless of the cost, even Great Saints would be killed.

Many Ancient Race members have Imperial Artifacts, but they do not, because the Undying Emperor's Undying Heavenly Blade was not left behind at all.

………

Time flows leisurely; in the blink of an eye, two years have passed.

In these two years, Ye Fan and Pang Bo's reputations have grown even larger. Although they are both only at the peak of the Dao Palace Realm, they can easily defeat Ji Haoyue and Yao Yuekong, who are Divine Bodies and have already stepped into the Four Extremities Realm.

These two people were not even their match for ten moves!

As for other geniuses of the same generation, they were even less of a match for them in a single exchange.

Among them, Ye Fan's most terrifying battle record was crossing two major realms to kill a veteran of the Dragon Transformation Realm.

The other party relied on their seniority to accuse Ye Fan, which provoked Ye Fan to deal a lethal blow.

Later, Ye Fan and Pang Bo joined forces and managed to escape with their lives from the hands of a Great Power at the first layer of the Immortal Terrace.

This battle was also the battle that made Ye Fan and Pang Bo famous.

Although that Great Power did not deal a lethal blow—after all, they were worried about Yin Qi's retaliation—the fact that Ye Fan and Pang Bo could escape from their hands already explained the problem.

Ye Fan and Pang Bo have already completed a certain transformation, and their combat power is even more terrifying than before.

One must know, they are still at the peak of the Dao Palace Realm.

Crossing two major realms to kill an opponent in reverse is rare in ancient times and unheard of.

Although Ye Fan and Pang Bo are only at the Dao Palace Realm, they have opened seven or eight Life Springs and simultaneously condensed over eight hundred acupoints; their actual combat power naturally cannot be measured by the "Dao Palace Realm." ===== CHAPTER 418 =====
