Dongling City is a city that is quite famous even in the entire Northern Xuan Region. The main reason for this is that the Eastern Branch Hall, one of the four most important branch halls of the Darkness Hall, is located here.

The Northern Xuan Region Domain is vast. In addition to the Darkness City, the headquarters of the Darkness Hall located in the center, the Darkness Hall has set up four magnificent branch temples in the east, west, south, and north of the Northern Xuan Region for ease of administration.

If the Darkness Hall is a dynasty, then the Darkness City is the central headquarters, and the four branch temples in the east, west, south, and north are like the four regional lords, each suppressing their own territory.

Dongling City, as the headquarters of this Eastern Darkness Branch Hall, rules over a vast territory radiating outwards from this location for millions of miles.

Within this vast territory, every person and force is under the jurisdiction of Dongling City.

The Dongling City branch is undoubtedly the overlord here!

Today is undoubtedly the busiest day in Dongling City during this period, as it welcomes the entire Seventh Regiment of the Tribunal Army.

As a regimental-level unit, a regiment of the Tribunal Army rarely gathers together on a regular basis. After all, any battalion within the Tribunal Army is strong enough to crush some second-rate sects in the Northern Xuan Region. Therefore, when carrying out missions on a regular basis, it is rare for a regiment to appear together, unless they encounter an extremely troublesome rebellion.

For example, the Yuwen Family right now.

Therefore, at the order of the Hall Master Bo Xuan, all the generals of the Seventh Regiment, who usually led their troops in battles, came to Dongling City to assemble.

In addition, the various forces, large and small, that rely on the Darkness Hall for survival in the Eastern Region territories will also bring their troops to assist, making it an exceptionally grand affair.

When Lin Langtian entered Dongling City with the main force, a look of surprise flashed across his eyes as he looked at the people from all directions who had gathered there.

Compared to the branch hall in the Southern River Realm, this Dongling City truly lives up to its reputation as the most important branch hall of the Darkness Hall in the Eastern Region territory; it is indeed incredibly magnificent.

"The Eastern Region territory spans millions of miles and is home to countless forces, large and small. Although the Darkness Hall has always ignored their conflicts, if the Darkness Hall commands it, they must send people to assist, such as in the current siege of the Yuwen Family," Qing Tan whispered from the side.

Lin Langtian nodded slightly. This was like a dynasty, with the Darkness Hall as the royal family and the other forces as subjects. They had to submit to the Darkness Hall Darkness Hall obey its commands at crucial moments.

The law of the jungle, where the strong prey on the weak, is the only unchanging truth in this Great Thousand World.

After entering the territory of Dongling City, the Third Battalion disembarked from the Darkness War Tiger Ship in an orderly fashion and then entered the city.

The black torrent slowly passed by, attracting countless fearful gazes. Anyone who frequents the Northern Xuan Region would be familiar with this most powerful fighting force in the Northern Xuan Region.

At the same time, they were also aware that the Dark Tribunal Army had mobilized an entire regiment this time, which was a significant move and the punishment was undoubtedly severe.

At the city gate checkpoint leading into Dongling City, there was clearly a large number of soldiers guarding the area, and sharp eyes were scanning the people entering the Dongling City.

"Hehe, the Third Battalion has arrived. Old Zhong, it's been a long time."

On the towering city gate, a burly man wearing a red sword and Ghost Face Mask looked down at the Third Battalion below, clasped his hands in a fist salute, and laughed.

"I heard that your Third Battalion just wiped out a second-rate sect in the south. You must have made a great haul."

"It's you, Battalion Commander Huo. My Third Battalion is no match for your First Battalion. You wiped out seven resistance forces in three months. Judging from your aura, you're not far from reaching the Death Profound Stage Grand Completion."

Zhong Kui looked up, sensing the aura emanating from the burly man, and pursed his lips slightly before speaking.

The Tribunal Army adheres to the principle of sustaining itself through war, so everyone in the Tribunal Army not only does not dislike this continuous warfare, but actually craves it.

After all, only by eliminating those resistance forces can the Tribunal Army seize their resources and enhance its own strength.

The Camp Commander of this First Battalion had clearly gained considerable benefits from these continuous battles, and was even only one step away from breaking through to the Death Profound Stage Grand Completion.

"Hehe, likewise. Old Zhong, you're about to break through too. By the way, the Regiment Commander commander and everyone are waiting for you. Lead your men and come with me quickly," the First Battalion Commander urged.

"Um."

Zhong Kui nodded, then waved his hand and shouted, "Third Battalion, enter the city!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhong Kui and the First Battalion Commander led the way, with Lin Langtian and the rest of the battalion following closely behind.

Dongling City is exceptionally vast, and within the city, rows of magnificent palaces stand side by side. In the sky, light arrays appear from time to time, which are some of Dongling City's defensive measures.

Meanwhile, the central square of Dongling City was already packed with people, and all sorts of noises converged and soared into the sky, as if even the clouds were being torn apart.

Lin Langtian group followed Zhong Kui straight to the central square, where there was a special area.

Within that area, Five Tall Banners fluttered in the howling wind, and most importantly, a dark mass of figures stood silently and solemnly in the center.

Compared to the bustling scenes of the surrounding Eastern Region factions, it was extremely quiet, even deathly still, like a heartless machine killer.

The Seventh Regiment of the Tribunal Army!

"So turbulent, such a terrifying aura."

Lin Langtian stared in surprise at the rolling murderous aura above the Seventh Regiment of the square. In his perception, this murderous aura seemed to have merged together, surging like an astonishing killing intent, as if it were waiting for an opportunity to strike and brewing a monstrous killing intent.

Compared to a battalion, this regiment's murderous aura was much stronger. It was hard to imagine how magnificent the scene would be if all ten regiments of the Tribunal Army were assembled. I'm afraid even ordinary Nirvana Stage experts wouldn't be able to withstand that murderous aura alone.

The Tribunal Army truly lives up to its reputation as the sharpest sword of the Darkness Hall!

While Lin Langtian was pondering, the Third Battalion, led by Zhong Kui, also integrated into the Seventh Regiment and came to the back of the flag representing the Third Battalion.

After separating from Zhong Kui, the First Battalion Commander leaped forward and arrived directly in front of the First Battalion.

At this moment, in front of each of the five battalions stood a person wearing a red longsword and a ghost face; these were none other than the five Camp Commander of the Seventh Regiment, all experts at the Death Profound Stage.

Thump!

After an unknown amount of time, amidst the noisy atmosphere in the square, a deep chime suddenly resounded, and then the entire square gradually quieted down, with all eyes turning to the high platform in the square.

"Hehe, by order of the Hall Master, all forces in the Eastern Region shall obey orders and jointly quell the Yuwen traitor!"

A soft laugh suddenly echoed through the square like thunder. Then, two dark beams of light shot straight in from outside the square and rushed up to the high platform.

As the black light coalesced and the black cloaks fluttered, two figures appeared on the high platform at some unknown time. Their eyes swept across the platform with the force of thunder, shaking the very soul.

The figure on the left was a middle-aged man dressed in a black robe. His face was somewhat angular, and his brows conveyed the sharpness and majesty of someone who had held a high position for many years. However, a hint of ruthlessness could still be seen deep within his eyes.

As for the one on the right, he was dressed the same as Lin Langtian and the others, but his Ghost Face Mask was covered by an extremely rare silver longsword.

The Regiment Commander of the Seventh Regiment!

"Bro Langtian, the person on the left is the Hall Master of the Eastern Branch Hall, named Xu Xin, a powerful expert at the Death Profound Stage Perfection. As for the one on the right, you probably already know him. He is Jiang Shan, the Regiment Commander of my Seventh Regiment, known as the Black Mountain General in the Tribunal Army. He is also a powerful expert at the peak of the Death Profound Stage Perfection!" Qing Tan transmitted her voice from the side.

"Oh, the head of the Eastern Branch Hall and the leader of the Seventh Regiment..."

Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian narrowed his eyes slightly and then looked at the two powerful figures on the high platform. Xu Xin, as the head of the Eastern Branch Hall of the Darkness Hall, was like a local lord, so his aura and prestige were no less than that of his title.

As for Jiang Shan, the Regiment Commander of the Seventh Regiment, he stood with his arms crossed, tall and imposing. Although he did not speak, he was like a mountain, exuding an undeniable aura of weight and power.

Within this heavy aura, Lin Langtian keenly discovered an extremely astonishing baleful energy hidden within. It was unimaginable how powerful the combination of the two would be.

"As expected of the Regiment Commander of the Tribunal Army, Xu Xin, although he is also at the Death Profound Stage Perfection, is probably no match for Jiang Shan. He might not even be able to withstand a hundred moves." Lin Langtian murmured.

In Lin Langtian's perception, these seven leaders not only possessed a powerful aura and astonishing killing intent, but were also only one step away from reaching the Reincarnation Realm. If they encountered a favorable opportunity, they might be able to advance to the Reincarnation Realm and enter the ranks of the continent's powerful figures.

"These are just the Regiment Commander, but the Elder Level are the real trump cards of the Tribunal Army. They are all true experts at the Samsara Stage Realm, and that's the source of the Darkness Hall's confidence in suppressing the local areas like this," Lin Langtian said with emotion.

The Darkness Hall truly lives up to its reputation as the dominant force in the Northern Xuan Region for thousands of years. Its strength is terrifying. Even if it has only revealed the tip of the iceberg, it is enough to rival the Eight Great Super Sects of the Eastern Xuan Region.

Shaking his head, as Lin Langtian pondered, Xu Xin, as the master of the Eastern Branch Hall, after giving a long and eloquent speech and making a declaration of his mastery, looked at Jiang Shan beside him and left the rest of the conversation to the latter.

He knew that even though he was the master of Dongling City and the eastern lord of the Darkness Hall, he still had to be careful when dealing with the Tribunal Army coming from headquarters.

These... are a group of killing gods.

At the same time, everyone in the audience looked at the burly man. Although they couldn't see his face clearly, the silver longsword on the Ghost Face Mask made the faces of many leaders of the forces present turn pale.

The Regiment Commander- ranking officials, and these are all important figures in the Tribunal Army. Each of them has made a name for themselves in the Northern Xuan Region and has an extremely terrifying record of battles.

"Welcome, Regiment Commander!"

As the burly man on the high platform stepped forward, the entire Seventh Regiment in the square immediately resounded with welcoming voices.

"Hmm." Jiang Shan nodded slightly, his silver longsword appearing even more mysterious and menacing under the sunlight.

The deep voice paused slightly, and Jiang Shan looked into the distance, gazing at the vast black sea before him. Beneath those Ghost Face Mask, there was a burning desire for war.

Seeing this, Jiang Shan smiled. He didn't choose to say anything unnecessary. He slowly raised his hand, and in the next instant, a chilling killing intent suddenly surged into his eyes.

"Set off immediately! Today, we will raze the Yuwen Family to the ground!"

"Roar!"

A deafening roar resounded throughout the heavens and earth, and the city trembled. As the Yuan energy surged, countless figures roared out and surged across the sky like a raging torrent.

The Tribunal Army, once again, goes to war!

In the Eastern Region, the Yuwen Family.

As the leading power in the Eastern Region, the Yuwen Family is well-known even in the entire Northern Xuan Region. In the past, even a servant of the Yuwen Family would consider himself noble. However, the Yuwen Family is different now. Everyone is in a panic, as if a great disaster is about to befall them.

Deep within the Yuwen Family manor, in a study, a crisp slapping sound suddenly rang out.

"You unfilial son, you wretched child! If it weren't for you, how could my Yuwen family have fallen into such a dangerous situation!"

A middle-aged man dressed in a magnificent robe and with a dignified appearance slapped the man hard, shouting hysterically.

Opposite him stood a handsome young man with a slightly arrogant air. The young man looked terrified, covering his right cheek, which was bright red from the slap he had received.

"Master, please stop hitting him. Tuo'er was just being playful. Who would have thought it would lead to such a disaster? It's all because of those damned cronies. If they hadn't drugged Tuo'er, how could Tuo'er have leaked such a serious matter?"

Beside the young man stood a still-attractive noblewoman, who carefully wiped the young man's swollen cheeks, tears streaming down her face.

"It's all your fault for spoiling him. I told him long ago not to hang out with those scoundrels. Now look what's happened! The entire Northern Xuan Region knows that my Yuwen Family possesses the Stillness Divine Tablet. We're in deep trouble!"

Yuwen Hao, the Clan Leader of the Yuwen Family, glanced at the young man with disappointment and then slumped weakly into his chair, sighing.

"Then why don't we escape?" the noblewoman asked.

"Escape? Where can we escape to? Xu Xin has already planted spies all around us. How can we escape? The Stillness Divine Tablet was originally the hope for the rise of the Yuwen Family, but now it has become the root of our destruction!" Yuwen Hao said, his face ashen.

"Father, can't we just hand over the Stillness Divine Tablet to the Darkness Hall and beg for their forgiveness?" the young man said, still clinging to a sliver of hope.

"It's too late. The Darkness Hall hates deception and betrayal the most. By now, the Tribunal Army must already be on its way," Yuwen Hao murmured in despair.

"The Tribunal Army?" Upon hearing these words, both the young man and the noblewoman showed extreme fear on their faces, clearly knowing what this meant.

"Father, it's all my fault. Please think of something. I don't want to die, and the Yuwen Family cannot be destroyed..."

Thinking of the terrifying Tribunal Army, this spoiled brat finally felt fear and crawled to Yuwen Hao on his knees, begging for mercy.

Stroking Yuwen Tuo's head, Yuwen Hao's face showed a hint of reluctance, and then he murmured, "The Tribunal Army has descended, and I am powerless to stop it. However, in a moment of crisis, I will activate the spatial Teleportation Array so that your Uncle Zhong can take you away from this place."

Remember, take the Stillness Divine Tablet and leave the Northern Xuan Region. Go as far away as possible and never come back...
