Becoming an Immortal and Ancestor, Starting from the Clan-protecting Divine Beast

160: Chapter 160 The Xie Family Makes Their Move!Just as the three Families were discussing.

Guangze Prefecture, the Xie Family Forbidden Ground.

In front of a blood pool that emitted a strong, bloody odor, a tall figure stood with hands clasped behind his back, staring intently at the pool.

”Old Ancestor, that wicked girl Xie Yunshu has already become a Dao Companion with that person from the Chen Family, and has even given birth to a son. Her Bloodline is likely diluted, and the Legacy has been passed down to her descendant.”

”My Xie Family’s great plan of several millennia was about to succeed, yet I never expected it to be ruined at this critical juncture.”

A Cultivator wearing a black and red long robe hurriedly stepped out of The Great Void, his tone laced with anxiety.

The Xie Family Old Ancestor raised his hand to interrupt the newcomer, then turned around, revealing a weather-beaten face etched with countless stories.

”It doesn’t matter.”

This Great True Person looked calm, not overly concerned about Xie Yunshu’s departure.

”That Dou Zhan Demon King of the Chen Family is not an easy opponent. The fact that he could kill Old Ghost Zhu and Blood Calamity, two Five Methods Purple Mansion experts, shows that he has few rivals within the Five Methods realm.”

”Our Xie Family’s great plan is currently at a crucial stage. It is not advisable to start a major conflict with the Chen Family. Once the great plan succeeds and my Xie Family completely dominates Guangze Prefecture, it will not be too late to strike at the Chen Family.”

”Furthermore, as the Xie Family Head, a Three Methods Purple Mansion expert, you should not be so impetuous. You must remain composed.”

The Xie Family Head nodded repeatedly: ”The Old Ancestor’s lesson is correct.”

Afterward, he looked at the blood pool behind his Old Ancestor, a look of doubt flashing in his eyes, and he hesitated:

”But Old Ancestor, with the loss of Xie Yunshu, the contemporary Divine Maiden, what will we use to compensate? Her Bloodline was the richest in hundreds of years.”

Hearing this, the Xie Family Old Ancestor’s eyes flashed with cruelty and bloodlust: ”If we are short one Divine Maiden, then we will just kill a few more Purple Mansion True Persons and use their vital essence and blood as a substitute.”

”Then Old Ancestor, which Family should we strike against?”

The Xie Family Head asked respectfully.

”The Old Ghost of the Taiyuan Sect is a Five Methods Purple Mansion expert, and his vital essence and blood alone would be enough to replace Xie Yunshu, perhaps even exceeding it.”

”However, the Taiyuan Sect possesses the Magic Treasure left behind by Rain Lin True Monarch. If we start a fight, it’s easy for both sides to suffer heavy losses. Let’s strike against the Wang Family and the Changbai Sect instead.”

After the Xie Family Old Ancestor finished speaking, his figure merged into the Void Realm and vanished.

”I respectfully obey the Old Ancestor’s command.”

The Xie Family Head bowed respectfully.

Afterward, this Mid-stage Purple Mansion expert arrived at the other end of the Xie Family Forbidden Ground, where a ten-thousand-zhang wide lake was situated. The lake water was light red, causing one to shudder.

A blood-colored jade talisman was taken out by the Xie Family Head and shaken toward the ten-thousand-zhang lake. The patterns on it lit up one by one, and dazzling blood light shot straight into the Upper Heaven Thunder.

”I request the Ancestor Flood Dragon to take action.”

As the words fell, the waters of the ten-thousand-zhang lake surged, as if some gigantic creature was swimming at the bottom.

Boom!

Subsequently, the massive volume of lake water rolled back up into the sky, and a blood-colored Flood Dragon several thousand zhang long rushed out of the great lake. Its demonic body was thicker than a house, its blood-red scales flashed with a cold metallic luster, and its two dragon horns pierced straight toward the heavens like two sharp swords.

The house-sized Flood Dragon eyes looked at the Xie Family Head, and a majestic, heavy voice exploded in his mind: ”What is it?”

”We need to ask the Ancestor Flood Dragon to destroy two Purple Mansion Factions.” The Xie Family Old Ancestor bowed respectfully.

”What level of Purple Mansion Factions? Do they have a False Core expert presiding over them?”

The blood-red Flood Dragon asked.

”Naturally not. Both Families only have one Four Methods Purple Mansion expert each. For the Ancestor Flood Dragon, you can destroy them with a lift of your hand.”

The Xie Family Head said with a smile.

Swish!

A flash of blood light passed, and the several-thousand-zhang long blood-red Flood Dragon disappeared. A robust, muscular man wearing a blood-red long robe appeared in mid-air, his eyes scarlet like blood, making people dare not look him directly in the face.

”Let’s go.”

After the Ancestor Flood Dragon spoke, the Void Realm ahead cracked open, and his tall figure stepped into The Great Void.

The Xie Family Head quickly followed, leading the way for him.

After the man and the Flood Dragon departed, the blood pool began to surge inexplicably, bubbling and gurgling, and some severed limbs and ghastly white bones surfaced.

Immediately afterward, a steady yet powerful heartbeat sound emanated from the bottom of the blood pool, like the beating of a heavenly drum, shaking the surrounding Void Realm incessantly, as ripples visible to the naked eye spread outward from the blood pool.

An aura as terrifying as ten thousand massive mountains quietly emerged. The originally trembling Void Realm instantly solidified, and then cracked inch by inch, as if some great ominous entity was about to be born... Just as the three Families finished discussing how to deal with the Xie Family, a piece of news arrived.

The Zifu Family Wang Family and the Purple Mansion Faction Changbai Sect in Guangze Prefecture were annihilated, with no survivors. The scene was horrific, enough to make even a Purple Mansion True Person frown upon seeing it.

”It’s likely the Xie Family’s doing. Only that Variant Flood Dragon, suspected to be False Core, could silently and swiftly eliminate Four Methods Purple Mansion experts like that.”

Dao Shi, the Old Ancestor of the Taiyuan Sect, said with a frown.

”Hmph! That beast dares to be so reckless within Human Race territory, casually wiping out entire sects. I will definitely make it pay the price!”

The Great True Man Luoxiao, meanwhile, was furious, Xu Earth radiance permeated the air, and Five Methods Qi surged, causing the surrounding Void Realm to continuously open and close.

”The Xie Family choosing to strike at two Purple Mansion Factions might mean they sensed something, or it could be that the Xie Family’s scheme is about to succeed but is still lacking something, which is why they acted this way.”

Yuan Feng stated his speculation.

From the news brought by Dao Shi, it is known that the Xie Family previously had a history of nefarious acts, such as abducting Cultivators from various regions.

Taking everything into account, it is not difficult to guess that the Xie Family is definitely conducting some kind of sacrifice behind the scenes.

It is just that the object of this sacrifice is unknown, whether it is the Variant Flood Dragon or something else entirely.

”Fellow Daoist Dou Zhan, how about we strike against the Xie Family right now?”

Great True Person Dao Shi looked at Yuan Feng. He and the Xie Family had been locked in overt and covert struggles for many years, with both sides wanting to eliminate the other to dominate Guangze Prefecture.

But due to various reasons, both the Taiyuan Sect and the Xie Family exercised restraint, rarely engaging in Purple Mansion-level Dou Zhans.

But now it is different. The Xie Family proactively attacked the Wang Family and the Changbai Sect, both of which had Late-stage Purple Mansion experts presiding over them.

This indicates that once their scheme succeeds, they will be fully capable of annihilating the Taiyuan Sect, which relies on a Magic Treasure to suppress its Luck!

”Agreed. We must not delay. If a moment’s hesitation leads to total failure, this King cannot accept it.”

Yuan Feng nodded, then tore open The Great Void and stepped into it.

Great True Person Dao Shi and Great True Man Luoxiao exchanged glances and both walked into The Great Void.

The two Late-stage Purple Mansion Elders brought by the Great True Man Luoxiao followed closely.

”Zhu Xiao, you have just achieved the Purple Mansion Breakthrough. Although you have grasped Sword Intent, your raw power is still insufficient. Stay behind and guard Luoyun Mountain.”

Yuan Feng instructed.

”Uncle Yuan, rest assured. With me here, Luoyun Mountain will be fine.”

Chen Zhuxiao nodded seriously.

He knew his own limitations. Going against the Xie Family, which could wipe out two Late-stage Purple Mansion Factions, would only make things worse as a newly advanced Purple Mansion expert.

Just like this, Yuan Feng and two other Five Methods Purple Mansion experts, along with two Late-stage Purple Mansion Immortal Masters, fled into The Great Void, rushing toward the location of the Xie Family in Guangze Prefecture.

The headquarters of this great Family, which had a Legacy of several millennia, was not in Guangze Prefecture City, but situated thirty thousand miles north of Guangze Prefecture City in the Yunxiao Blessed Land.

It is rumored that this Yunxiao Blessed Land was established by Great True Person Yunxiao, the Xie Family’s Ancestral Master, a False Core Great Power who had refined the Golden Nature.

After achieving False Core, this False Core Great Power ventured deep into the Ancient Savage Lands and subdued a Variant Flood Dragon, which is now the Xie Family’s Clan-Guarding Spirit Beast.

After his demise, this Variant Flood Dragon became the Xie Family’s stabilizing force, repelling countless powerful enemies for the Xie Family.

As for the Xie Family, they worshipped this Variant Flood Dragon like an Ancestral Master. In every generation, they would select a Divine Maiden with the highest Bloodline concentration and sacrifice her to the Variant Flood Dragon in exchange for its full protection.

As for whether this rumor is true or false, they would only know by seeing it with their own eyes.

In less than half a day, Yuan Feng and the others arrived outside the Yunxiao Blessed Land.

”The Xie Family’s clan-protecting great Formation is a third-tier top-grade Wind Cloud Dragon Tiger Great Formation. Relying on the Yunxiao Blessed Land, it can manifest two Formation Spirits close to the Five Methods level. If the Dragon and Tiger merge, it can even erupt with the power of the Five Methods level.”

Great True Person Dao Shi explained to Yuan Feng and the others.

As he spoke, he took out the Rain Lin Descends Heaven Talisman, the sect-guarding Magic Treasure left behind by the Taiyuan Sect’s Ancestral Master, and a look of determination flashed in his eyes.

”I will break the Xie Family’s clan-protecting great Formation. The rest of the Xie Family members will temporarily be left to you all to handle.”

As his words fell, the water-blue jade talisman in his hand shone brightly. An aura transcending the Purple Mansion level faintly emerged, as if a long-dormant Golden Core True Monarch was awakening, nearly suffocating the two Late-stage Purple Mansion Elders behind the Great True Man Luoxiao.

”Wait a moment, it’s not time to use the Magic Treasure yet.”

Yuan Feng spoke up, interrupting Great True Person Dao Shi’s movement.

”Just a mere third-tier Formation. This King recently achieved a Breakthrough. Why not let me handle it?”

As he spoke, Yuan Feng had already stepped out of The Great Void. Operating the Size As Desired Divine Ability, his normally tall demonic body instantly became even more majestic than a high mountain.

”I am Dou Zhan, and I have come to seek justice for my Chen Family descendant!”

A sound like the beating of an Immortal drum, like Upper Heaven Thunder, resounded throughout the entire Yunxiao Blessed Land. The sound waves spread, shaking apart all the clouds in the sky.

Many Xie Family disciples experienced ringing in their ears and surging blood Qi. They became dizzy, some even bled from their seven orifices and collapsed immediately.

Even Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators were shaken by Yuan Feng’s voice, bleeding from their ears and nose, and seeing stars.

”How dare you!”

With a roar that shook the heavens, the Xie Family Head’s face was ashen, his eyes filled with blazing fury.

The Xie Family hadn’t even gone to the Chen Family to retrieve Xie Yunshu yet, but unexpectedly, the Chen Family had attacked first, and it was the Dou Zhan Demon King himself who had arrived.

The next moment, the Xie Family Head seemed to receive a voice transmission, his expression pausing, followed by a surge of astonishing killing intent.

”Dou Zhan, since you have come, then stay here!”

Before his voice faded, the entire Yunxiao Blessed Land rumbled and shook, and dazzling white light illuminated the ten directions of the cosmos.

Roar! Aung!

Dragon roars and tiger shouts spread in all directions. A ten-thousand-zhang cloud Dragon and a mountain-sized giant Tiger manifested together, charging simultaneously toward Yuan Feng.

Clouds follow the Dragon, and wind follows the Tiger. Instantly, the Dragon and Tiger converged in mid-air, transforming into a massive platinum disk, like the fusion of the sun and moon, smashing down upon him.

Yuan Feng stood majestically above the firmament, extending his right arm. A Heaven Covering Great Hand crushed the sky, seeming capable of plucking stars and seizing the moon, gripping the platinum disk in one grasp.

Crackle!

A crisp cracking sound spread throughout heaven and earth, causing the Xie Family Head’s complexion to change drastically.

Under the horrified gaze of this Three Methods Purple Mansion expert, Yuan Feng crushed the disk in one go. Within the gigantic golden hand, mountain-sized stars materialized, simultaneously blasting the Xie Family’s clan-protecting great Formation.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The entire Yunxiao Blessed Land was shaking. Mountains collapsed one after another, and numerous magnificent and luxurious buildings disintegrated.

In just a moment, the vast Xie Family headquarters was reduced to ruins.

Great True Person Dao Shi and Great True Man Luoxiao, watching from behind, were dumbfounded. Is this really a Five Methods Purple Mansion expert?

A third-tier top-grade great Formation was broken just like that?!

Just as the two were stunned, a burst of blood light erupted, and a Flood Dragon tens of thousands of zhang long rushed out of the Xie Family Forbidden Ground, heading straight for Yuan Feng.
