Chapter 450

Beyond being shocked by the strength Tong Bo erupted with in that full-force strike, Yuan Tiangang, having been blown in the opposite direction, still stared fixedly at Tong Bo as he left in the direction of Tong Zhan, Dou Dou, and Yin Xiu.

Yuan Tiangang sighed helplessly in his heart; he realized that he could no longer keep Tong Bo here.

If he risked everything, perhaps Yuan Tiangang could gain the upper hand in the battle with Tong Bo, and in the end, by paying some price, perhaps he could bring Tong Bo back to the Great Tang Imperial Palace.

But at that time, he himself would inevitably be in a state of exhaustion.

And on Tong Bo's side, besides Tong Bo being a Land Immortal*Heavenly Man Realm expert, there was also Tong Zhan, who possessed the Land Immortal*Mortal Realm.

If Yuan Tiangang pursued them directly now, given his strength, he might end up being defeated by the two Tong brothers.

But if he let Tong Bo escape from right under his nose, Yuan Tiangang was extremely unwilling.

Just as Yuan Tiangang was feeling very conflicted, a palm suddenly appeared behind him, blocking his tendency to fly backward due to the backlash.

Feeling himself being supported, Yuan Tiangang felt his body stiffen slightly, and then he turned his head to see a middle-aged man wearing Daoist robes with a face full of smiles.

Seeing this middle-aged man in Daoist robes, Yuan Tiangang's eyes brightened, as if he had seen a life-saving straw.

"Li Chunfeng, you have finally arrived!"

"With you here, this matter will be foolproof!"

"We must capture Tong Bo and bring him back to the Great Tang, otherwise, given Tong Bo's talent and destiny, he will definitely be the greatest hidden danger to the Great Tang in the future!"

Yuan Tiangang said to Li Chunfeng with a hint of excitement in his expression.

Li Chunfeng's arrival completely resolved Yuan Tiangang's urgent need.

Originally, Yuan Tiangang could barely deal with Tong Bo on his own, but because there was Tong Zhan, who was at the Land Immortal*Mortal Realm, by Tong Bo's side, he had no way to make a move.

Now, with Li Chunfeng's arrival, Yuan Tiangang's side possessed two top experts at the peak of the Land Immortal*Heavenly Man Realm.

Going to capture Tong Bo and his group would no longer have any difficulty!

After hearing Yuan Tiangang's words, Li Chunfeng smiled gently and then nodded.

Seeing Li Chunfeng agree, in order to avoid Tong Zhan, Tong Bo, and the others completely escaping the range of their perception, Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng did not continue to reminisce, and both turned into streaks of light, chasing in the direction Tong Bo had flown.

……

Great Tang, Cihang Jingzhai.

Di Ni was looking up at the Famous Sword Ranking in the sky, with scenes from her memories appearing in her eyes.

Di Ni knew of the existence of the Tong Clan and Long Teng.

Back then, Di Ni had once dealt with Long Teng, and the two of them were friends—friends who had experienced life and death together.

When Long Teng was schemed against by Di Shitian and was fighting Yin Zhong, Di Ni happened to be in closed-door cultivation; by the time she emerged, Long Teng had already died in battle, and the Tong Clan had also disappeared from the Nine Provinces.

Even if Di Ni had wanted to go and cause trouble for Yin Zhong back then, she had no way to do so, because at that time, Yin Zhong had also been injured by the Spirit Realm and had hidden in the shadows of the Nine Provinces to recover.

Every time Di Ni recalled Long Teng's death and the decline of the Tong Clan, she could not help but sigh in her heart.

If Long Teng were still alive, the Nine Provinces would undoubtedly have one more peerless expert.

Given Long Teng's aptitude at that time, he could even break through the bottleneck of the Land Immortal*Heavenly Immortal Realm that stopped all the experts of the Nine Provinces!

"Since Long Teng General's descendants are still alive in this world."

"And they also possess the Divine Dragon Sword, which is the continuation of Long Teng General's will."

"Then I, Di Ni, must take care of this young man named Tong Bo."

"I wonder if my old friends from the Tong Clan are still alive."

"It seems this time, this poor Daoist must go to the Great Tang and wade into these muddy waters!"

Di Ni said softly while looking at the Famous Sword Ranking in the sky.

As soon as she finished speaking, Di Ni's figure disappeared from within Cihang Jingzhai.

……

The news on the Famous Sword Ranking in the sky regarding the Tong Clan and the Divine Dragon Sword also successfully attracted the attention of the Demon Sect.

Heavenly Demon Cang Qu stared greedily at the Famous Sword Ranking above the sky.

Heavenly Demon Cang Qu was one of the very few people in the Nine Provinces who knew about the Tong Clan, the Long Clan, and the relationship between Long Teng and the Divine Dragon.

Back then, during the great battle between Yin Zhong and Long Teng, Heavenly Demon Cang Qu had also secretly killed many members of the Tong Clan and the Long Clan, and had absorbed a significant amount of essence blood from the members of these two clans.

In fact, what attracted Heavenly Demon Cang Qu to make a move that day was not the Tong Clan or the Long Clan—races that were slightly different from ordinary humans but still classified as human—but the Divine Dragon that followed Long Teng at the time.

It was precisely after learning that there was a truly genuine Divine Dragon by Long Teng's side that Heavenly Demon Cang Qu chose to step out from the shadows and into the light of the Nine Provinces.

The reason the Divine Dragon was so attractive to Heavenly Demon Cang Qu was that he knew there was a Long Yuan inside the Divine Dragon's body!

Moreover, the essence within the dragon blood also held great attraction for Heavenly Demon Cang Qu.

Unfortunately, after he arrived at the place where Long Teng and Yin Zhong had their final battle, he heard that the Divine Dragon had mysteriously disappeared; before the final battle between Long Teng and Yin Zhong, the Divine Dragon had been placed by Long Teng in a very mysterious location.

Afterward, Heavenly Demon Cang Qu searched bitterly for many years but could not find any trace of the Divine Dragon in the Nine Provinces.

However, this time, the one on the Famous Sword Ranking was actually Long Teng General's Divine Dragon Sword; since the Divine Dragon Sword was on the list, if the Divine Dragon still existed in the world, it would certainly go looking for the Divine Dragon Sword and its master once it learned the news of the sword's emergence.

Taking a step back, even if the Divine Dragon did not appear, Heavenly Demon Cang Qu intended to go and see this Divine Dragon Sword master named Tong Bo.

He wanted to see whether this Tong Bo possessed the bloodline of the Tong Clan or the Long Clan; regardless, as long as Heavenly Demon Cang Qu absorbed all of Tong Bo's essence blood, he would naturally increase his strength to a certain extent!

"The taste of the blood of the Tong Clan and the Long Clan!"

"This seat has not tasted it for a long time!"

"If the Divine Dragon appears, this time I must take his entire body's essence blood and Long Yuan for my own!"

"By then, perhaps this seat will be able to break through the bottleneck of the Land Immortal*Heavenly Immortal Realm!!!"

Heavenly Demon Cang Qu looked at the Famous Sword Ranking in the sky with a very crazed expression on his face... 0

Subsequently, Heavenly Demon Cang Qu left the secret realm where he had been living in seclusion and rushed toward the direction of the Great Tang.

……

Great Han.

Immortal Nanhua, Zuo Ci, and Yu Ji originally intended to continue cultivating in peace in the great mountains where they lived in seclusion.

However, the news on the Famous Sword Ranking regarding the Divine Dragon Sword and the Tong Clan also alarmed the three of them.

For people like Immortal Nanhua, Zuo Ci, and Yu Ji, who had already lived for a very long time, they generally knew a thing or two about the affairs of the Nine Provinces.

But because Immortal Nanhua, Zuo Ci, and Yu Ji did not like to join in the excitement with the various major factions in the Nine Provinces and lived in seclusion in one place for many years, they had only heard back then how high Long Teng General's cultivation was and how vast the influence of the Tong Clan and the Long Clan was.

However, not long after, there was no more news about the Tong Clan and the Long Clan in the reports from the Nine Provinces.

Immortal Nanhua, Zuo Ci, and Yu Ji also thought that this faction, which was once powerful enough to be considered top-tier among all the factions in the entire Nine Provinces, might have been wiped out by some mysterious power hidden in the Nine Provinces.

But now, the news of the Tong Clan had actually caused the term "Tong Clan" to be exposed once again to the eyes of the major factions of the Nine Provinces through the Divine Dragon Sword appearing on the Famous Sword Ranking.

This made recluses like Immortal Nanhua, Zuo Ci, and Yu Ji want to go and see what this once extremely powerful race had become now.

"Immortal Nanhua, Immortal Yu Ji, why don't the three of us also go down the mountain and take a look at the current Nine Provinces?"

"I am somewhat interested in this person named Tong Bo, and I want to see with my own eyes just how big the hurricane caused by this Dragon God Sword will blow."

Zuo Ci said to Immortal Nanhua and Immortal Yu Ji.
