Supreme Lord of Towers

The Shadowless Sword, not only invisible and intangible, but also incomparably powerful, is definitely one of the strongest trump cards Ye Chen has mastered thus far.

He even has hopes of using this divine technique to leap over levels and defeat a real powerhouse of the Profound Pill Realm.

Of course, whether it can work or not, one can only know by trying.

”At present, I have cultivated the Human Emperor Body to the Third Level of the Vajra Realm, even if I now undertake a demon-slaying task, there is absolutely no problem! However, I’d better increase my cultivation level first!” Ye Chen mused in his heart.

His cultivation had just recently entered the Divine Mansion Realm, and the mana within his body was still very weak, making it impossible to demonstrate the true power of the Heaven-Sundering True Intent and the Shadowless Sword.

Therefore, the top priority is still to elevate his cultivation.

Whoosh!

In the next moment, as Ye Chen’s mind shifted, he stepped out from the Human Emperor’s Space and returned to the Cultivation Chamber, beginning to cultivate according to his plan.

While Ye Chen was in seclusion, cultivating arduously, at a towering mountain peak of Azure Sky Immortal Sect, a group of powerhouses was gathered in a splendidly decorated grand hall.

This grand hall was evidently the residence of Tuoba Xiong, the Third Elder of Overlord Body Peak.

”Patriarch, I don’t know why you have gathered us here, is there something important?” A black-robed elder with a sinister gaze couldn’t help but inquire of Tuoba Xiong.

Tuoba Xiong was not only the Third Elder of Overlord Body Peak, but he also held another identity, as the Patriarch of the Tuoba Family in Cang Province.

Their ancestors had once been a collateral lineage of the Quasi-God Family Tuoba Clan.

Therefore, they are considered a small branch of the Quasi-God Family Tuoba Clan.

Even though Tuoba Xiong’s strength was nowhere near as powerful as Venerable Zi Chen and the others, as he was only at the late stages of the Profound Pill Realm.

However, there were barely a few individuals in the entire Cang Province daring to provoke him.

Because they were deeply fearful of the Quasi-God Family Tuoba Clan behind Tuoba Xiong.

Previously, Tuoba Xiong dared to make a move against Ye Chen in front of Jin Kun, relying on this identity.

”Grand Elder, recently I discovered something particularly interesting!” At this time, Tuoba Xiong was sitting on a Silver Throne, a thick smirk hanging at the corner of his mouth.

”What is it?” The black-robed elder with a sinister gaze said curiously.

His name was Tuoba Mang, the Grand Elder of the Tuoba Family in Cang Province, whose cultivation had stepped into the Profound Pill Realm.

In fact, most of the daily affairs of the Tuoba Family in Cang Province were entrusted to him.

He even knew many powerful figures in Cang Province’s underground organizations, including some terrifyingly strong assassins.

As soon as someone dared to do anything detrimental to the Tuoba Family in Cang Province, he would find ways to eliminate those people.

Including hiring assassins.

”Five days ago, at an auction, I met a mysterious woman, finding her particularly familiar, now, I finally know who she is.” Tuoba Xiong said with a cold smile, terrifying sparks shooting from his eyes, causing chills.

Since the auction ended, he’d sent people to vigorously investigate Shangguan Zitong’s identity, but consistently came up with nothing.

Until yesterday, when he accidentally flipped through a document from three years ago and finally recognized Shangguan Zitong’s identity.

This document was released from the Quasi-God Family Tuoba Clan three years ago, containing records of strong individuals wanted by the Tuoba Clan.

Among them, one powerhouse was evidently Shangguan Zitong.

Her portrait was clearly etched in the document, Tuoba Xiong had seen it three years ago.

So when he first encountered Shangguan Zitong, he felt she was exceptionally familiar.

”What? Shangguan Zitong actually appeared at that auction five days ago, how is this possible?” Tuoba Mang and other high-level members of the Tuoba Family were shocked, eyes filled with disbelief upon learning this.

According to what they knew, Shangguan Zitong had already become a disciple of Ziwei Sacred Land one or two years ago, spending most of her time cultivating within Ziwei Sacred Land.

Why would she suddenly come to a small place like Cang Province?

”She came to Cang Province, likely to buy the Evil Exorcism Pill for her servant Zhubi, because her servant awakened the Black Simurgh Bloodline, continually threatened by the Black Simurgh Evil, only the Evil Exorcism Pill can save her.

Unfortunately, that pill was finally bought by Venerable Changfeng.” Tuoba Xiong said coldly, with a thick mockery at the corner of his mouth.

”I see, no wonder she would lower herself to appear in our Cang Province.” Tuoba Mang said with enlightened realization.

”Uncle, Shangguan Zitong once protected Ye Chen at the auction, do you think she might have some relationship with Ye Chen, that trash? If that trash really belongs to Shangguan Zitong, then he deserves to die even more.” At this moment, Tuoba You suddenly spoke, with terrifying killing intent surging all over him.

His father was the previous patriarch of the Tuoba Family, but fell mid-term.

Thus, even though Tuoba Xiong assumed the position of the new Patriarch, Tuoba You still called him Uncle.

Moreover, unexpectedly, Tuoba You would become the next patriarch of the Tuoba Family.

After all, he was the greatest genius produced by the Tuoba Family in the last few hundred years, with talent much stronger than Tuoba Xiong.

If even he couldn’t assume the position of patriarch, then no one else was qualified.

”You’er, Ye Chen, that trash, likely has little to do with Shangguan Zitong, after all, he is just an ant from the Mortal Realm, Shangguan Zitong may have protected him due to his Body Refining Talent and Qi Sea Foundation.” Tuoba Xiong said dismissively, utterly contemptuous.

To know, Shangguan Zitong was a direct descendant of the Quasi-God Family Shangguan Family! Moreover, she awakened the legendary Cyan Dragon Bloodline.

Even the high-level members of Ziwei Sacred Land hold her in high esteem.

But what about Ye Chen?

He was but a waste from the Mortal Dynasty, unable to awaken his bloodline.

Such a person and Shangguan Zitong should have no interaction.

Shangguan Zitong might have protected Ye Chen at the auction upon hearing the news that Ye Chen possessed a ninefold Qi Sea Foundation, feeling admiration for talent.

Sadly, Ye Chen, being unable to awaken his bloodline, renders the possession of a ninefold Qi Sea Foundation useless!

”Patriarch, this matter must be reported quickly, the high-level members of our Tuoba Clan have long wanted to completely eliminate Shangguan Zitong, perhaps this is an opportunity.” Tuoba Mang’s eyes couldn’t help but flash with piercing brilliance, his expression extremely excited.
