"Sigh..."
"Ren Jiaxing has wronged the Ren family. I have no words to justify this," Second Elder said with a heavy sigh, not daring to object in any way.
Ren Qirui's life is worth far more than a hundred Ren Jiaxings, or even more than his own, despite being a second elder of the Boundless Realm!
Since Ren Qirui was born, the entire Ren family's resources have been dedicated to him, pouring countless treasures into his growth. Ren Qirui has not disappointed them, ranking among the top young prodigies in the Eastern Region!
"Ancestral Patriarch, which family was behind this attack?"
"We'll set out now to avenge Qirui and tear the culprit to pieces!"
"And we must bring Qirui's body back, so he can rest in peace!" The clan leader's temples throbbed as he restrained his anger and looked towards the old Ancestral Patriarch.
All those present immediately expressed their commitment to make the enemy pay dearly. They wanted to make an example of what happens when one dares to provoke the Ren family!
After all, the Old Ancestral Patriarch had summoned them here and even brought the Five-Star Array Flags, clearly preparing for a major move!
With the five Boundless Realm experts controlling each flag in their respective positions, the formation could reach the Heaven level!
It could even focus power on a single individual, resulting in a massive surge in strength!
"No, the one who struck was from the Northern Region."
"It wasn't the Wang or Zhao family."
The old Ancestral Patriarch rubbed his foreleader, barely restraining himself from smacking his descendants in frustration. He spoke patiently.
"What?"
"There's someone in the Northern Region capable of defeating the Ancestral Patriarch's spiritual projection?"
"Could it be a hidden expert in the Northern Region?"
The clan's First Elder was taken aback, and the rest of the crowd frowned.
They had never expected such a powerful figure to exist in that barren place.
"I saw clearly; it was someone at the First Layer of the Sea of Qi Realm."
"Don't ask. I saw it myself; Sea of Qi Realm, first layer. Maybe he has some secret technique to conceal his true cultivation level!"
"Either way, that first layer Sea of Qi Realm cultivator shattered my spiritual projection with a single finger."
The old Ancestral Patriarch sighed and relayed what he had witnessed.
"Sea of Qi Realm, First Layer?!"
"Of course, they must be concealing his cultivation level..."
Everyone was stunned for a moment, then decided that Chen Daoxuan must have hidden his true strength.
At the very least, he had to be in the Spirit Dividing Realm. Otherwise, how could he shatter the old Ancestral Patriarch's Boundless Realm ninth-layer projection with a single strike?
"Let's go. We're heading to the Northern Region with me leading," the old Ancestral Patriarch commanded.
"His disciple is still in the secret realm. I'll kill the disciple first and then lure him out to finish him!"
Without further words, the old Ancestral Patriarch waved his hand, and the Ren family set out for the Northern Region with five Boundless Realm experts and the Five-Star Array Flags, creating an imposing and mighty scene.
Numerous forces in the Eastern Region watched the Ren family's grand departure with tension, unsure of their intentions but relieved when they saw the direction they were leadered.
"What's the Ren family up to?"
"They seem to be heading towards the Northern Region. Are they planning to sweep through the Northern Region?"
"Don't be absurd. Didn't you notice that even the Ren family's old Ancestral Patriarch is going?"
"For the Northern Region, the Ren family would only need to send an Boundless Realm elder to flatten it!"
"Well, as long as it doesn't affect us..."
The various powers in the Eastern Region sighed in relief when they realized that the Ren family's target was not them.
However, three powerful factions grew concerned!
"Wang Yan, our chief disciple, is in the Northern Region participating in the secret realm, isn't he?"
"Tsk, could it be that the Ren family plans to make a move against our Xiaoyao Palace chief disciple?"
"Someone, come! Follow me to the Northern Region to see what exactly the Ren family intends to do!"
The Palace Master of Xiaoyao Palace, frowning as he listened to the elder's report, quickly issued orders. Soon, he, too, set out with several Boundless Realm experts toward the Northern Region.
After receiving word from Xiaoyao Palace, the Wang family of the Eastern Region also mobilized swiftly.
Wang Yan wasn't only the chief disciple of Xiaoyao Palace; he was also the Wang family's prized genius—they couldn't afford any risk to his safety.
In the Eastern Region, at Holy Mountain.
"Everyone, there's a high chance that Shenruo will obtain an immortal legacy this time. Are those factions trying to interfere?"
"We'd better head there ourselves. We can't allow any harm to come to Shenruo."
The First Elder looked at the other two elders and spoke casually.
On Holy Mountain, there is no sect leader. Seven elders govern the mountain together and oversee disciples' training, each one a formidable Spirit Dividing Realm expert. Currently, four were in secluded cultivation, leaving only the three of them free. But three would be enough!
"Very well!"
The other two elders agreed without hesitation.
Li Shenruo was the disciple with the most potential on Holy Mountain, so they couldn't allow any accident to happen to her. The three prepared to set out for the Northern Region.
"Elder, Elder! Are you heading down the mountain for some fun?"
"Can you take Yurong along too?"
Just as the three elders were preparing to leave, a lively figure suddenly appeared, bouncing over to them with a bright, innocent expression and an exceptionally clear yet rather... clueless gaze.
"We're not going down the mountain for fun; we're going to—"
"Oh, never mind. No time for explanations; let's go. We'll bring you along."
The First Elder saw Li Yurong approaching and tried to explain, but then he thought about her limited intelligence. If he tried explaining, they'd still be there by nightfall. He decided to let it go and agreed to bring her along. With that, the three elders set off with Li Yurong, heading in the direction of the Northern Region.
...
Meanwhile, on the Void Mountain, at the Heavenly Dao Hall:
"Achoo!"
"Did I got a cold?"
"Impossible. Could it be that Yanran misses me?"
"Must be that."
Lying on a lounge chair, seemingly "deep in cultivation," Chen Daoxuan suddenly sneezed and woke up, rubbing his eyes.
Thinking about how his disciple's secret realm trial should be ending soon, he lost his sleepiness. He plucked a few tea leaves from the Primordial Spirit Enlightenment Tea Tree nearby and went to the pavilion to brew a pot.
Sipping the tea, Chen Daoxuan's brow furrowed slightly.
"When I helped Yanran get rid of her enemy, I thought I'd earn a big reward. But killing a mere projection got me no reward at all."
"With only a little over three thousand system points left, when will I ever reach ten thousand to break through to the Void Sky Realm?"
"Sigh, system points... I need some benevolent soul to send me a few more system points, and I'll be sure to thank them properly!"
Thinking about how he'd spent a thousand system points but earned back only nine, Chen Daoxuan felt a sting of regret. Earning system points was no easy task!
"Hopefully, Yanran will gain enough this time for her poor master to make some profit and finally break through to the Void Sky Realm."
"When will these hard days finally end…"
