Chapter 508: Slay the Thunder Clan!
At the same time, Nine Heavens Ten Lands, Yong Heng Tian.
This is an ancient realm famed for the active Thunder Law and the manifestation of the thunder Dao of the heavens.
Above the firmament, multicolored thunder clouds gather year‑round, electric serpents dance wildly, thunderbolts streak across the sky, filling the air with a ferocious and majestic aura.
And at the center of this vast thunder domain.
A realm composed of countless floating thunder Divine Mountains, a Star River of flowing liquid thunder magma, and towering palace complexes forged entirely from rare thunder divine metal.
It is the fundamental Ancestral Land that the Thunder Clan has cultivated and expanded for countless epochs!
Yet at this moment, this Thunder Ancestral Land, which should be orderly and majestically domineering,
has fallen into a strange atmosphere of impending storm and anxious hearts.
An indescribable oppression, panic and unease, like an invisible plague, spreads throughout the Thunder Clan.
In the Core Forbidden Land, within a Great Hall of entirely purple‑black stone etched with ancient thunder patterns,
The contemporary Clan Leader of the Thunder Clan, Lei Wanjie, his complexion as gloomy as water, sits upright on the main seat.
He is clad in a thunder‑patterned imperial robe, wears a Thunder Crown, usually exuding authority without anger, but now a layer of impenetrable gloom shrouds his brows.
On his left and right sit the robust Elder Lei Riyuan, several high‑ranking Core Elders, and several Supreme Elders whose presence is like a divine dragon seen only by its head, their aura residing in the Origin Dao Realm.
These top‑tier members of the Thunder Clan, who can make Yong Heng Tian tremble with a mere stomp, now all wear solemn, doubtful expressions, even a trace of unmistakable… panic!
The atmosphere inside the hall is so oppressive it suffocates.
Lei Wanjie slowly speaks, his voice hoarse and low, breaking the Dead Silence:
"The Supreme Elder Thunder Tai Ji who was sent to assassinate Ye Wuque and Feng Caichen… just recently, his Soul Lamp left in the clan shrine… has been completely extinguished."
"Buzz—"
Although it had been anticipated, when the Clan Leader personally confirmed the news, all the high‑ranking members inside the hall were shaken to the core, their faces paling further.
Thunder Tai Ji, at the pinnacle of the Dao Ancestor Realm, wields ominous Great Power; in a berserk state his combat strength can rival a Quasi‑Supreme, making him one of the Thunder Clan's foremost visible forces!
His fall not only signifies mission failure, but also a highly dangerous signal!
Lei Wanjie pauses, his voice becoming even more hoarse, as if each word weighed a thousand pounds:
"Moreover… according to the utmost secret line, a top‑secret signal originating from the direction of the No Return Path… our clan's supreme ancestor… Lord Lei Ancestor… his life imprint has also… completely vanished."
"What?!"
"The ancestor… has fallen?!"
"No Return Path… what exactly has happened?!"
This time, the cries could no longer be suppressed; several Supreme Elders sprang to their feet, their eyes filled with incredulous horror and fear!
The Thunder Ancestor, the faith and pillar of the Thunder Clan, is truly an Ancestor‑level being!
His fall deals a devastating blow to the Thunder Clan's morale, and also means… their cooperation and scheming deep within the No Return Path may have suffered an irreparable catastrophic change!
"What do we do?! What should we do now?!"
A Core Elder asked, voice trembling, having lost his usual composure.
"Clan Leader! Have you urgently consulted the deepest part of the Ancestral Land… the Elder Ancestor?"
Great Elder Lei Riyuan asked urgently, a final glimmer of hope in his eyes.
The Elder Ancestor he refers to is the being that has long slumbered in the Thunder Clan's ultimate Forbidden Land, regarded as the final trump card.
Lei Wanjie had not yet answered—
Outside the hall, a figure staggered in, pale as a ghost, rushing wildly; without even time to bow, his voice trembling with extreme terror, he shouted sharply:
"Report—!!! From the Ancestral Land Forbidden Land comes the Elder Ancestor's decree—!!"
Everyone's gaze instantly fixed on the messenger, their hearts rising to their throats.
The messenger collapsed on the ground, using every ounce of strength to scream those words like a funeral bell:
"The Elder Ancestor has issued a decree… the matter is exposed! Nine Heavens no longer has a place for our clan!"
"Everyone… at any cost… immediately disperse… flee!!!"
"Boom—!!!"
This final word 'flee', like the last straw that breaks a camel, also like the ultimate proclamation of the Day of Judgment, boomed throughout the Great Hall!
"What?!"
"Exposed?!"
"Flee?! The whole clan's exodus?!"
All the Thunder Clan's high officials, including Clan Leader Lei Wanjie, rose abruptly, their faces drained of any color, leaving only boundless horror, despair, and panic!
The Elder Ancestor's decree, clear and unmistakable, told them:
The Thunder Clan's collusion… has been completely exposed!
Nine Heavens Ten Lands, no longer a foothold for them!
Awaiting them will be thunder retribution from the entire Jiutian Camp and an unending, undying hunt!
"Quick! Execute the Elder Ancestor's decree! Notify all branches, all Core disciples, immediately activate the emergency Teleportation Array, disperse and flee to…"
Lei Wanjie, after all the Clan Leader, suppressed the tumultuous terror in his heart, about to issue the evacuation order.
However—
His words had not yet finished, his motion only just beginning.
"Buzz…!!!"
An incomprehensibly vast, towering, terrifying supreme aura, as if descending suddenly from the source of the Zhutian Wanjie, from the pinnacle of Tiandao!
This aura, grand, boundless, ancient, bearing an ultimate will to command the cosmos and fix the order, instantly enveloped and sealed the vast spacetime encompassing the Thunder Clan's domain!
Space has been solidified!
Like the most solid divine metal casting, any spatial relocation or Teleportation Array at this moment fails entirely!
Time seemed to have stalled!
The Thunder Clan's living beings' terrified expressions and attempts to flee became exceedingly sluggish!
Even the sky‑filled surging Lei Dian and the wildly dancing electric serpents froze and solidified at that moment, as if pressed by an invisible giant hand!
This is a divine miracle!
It is the awe‑inspiring method of a being truly perched atop Zhutian's summit, forcibly sealing a core region of a great realm with supreme magical power!
The one who acted is none other than the Lord of the Great Thousand Divine Universe!
Immediately thereafter—
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"…
One dazzling, fiercely radiant silhouette after another, exuding a terrifyingly supreme aura, streaked across the Eternal Darkness like brilliant meteors, and, from beyond the sealed spacetime, boldly descended over the Thunder Clan Ancestral Land!
Lord of the Great Thousand Divine Universe, Ice Sword Immortal, Ye Clan Heavenly Ancestor, Heavenly Sword Master, Ye Jinghong, Great Yu Elder, Seven Yu Elder, Ye Wuque, Feng Caichen!
Nine Dao silhouettes, like nine ancient judgment deities, stood upon the Lei Dian‑churning celestial vault, coldly overlooking the Thunder Clan territory below, which had fallen into Dead Silence and despair.
