The Night Prefecture Ancestors' Reputation Took Another Nosedive

In the night fog, the experts within Earthen City went from initial surprise to utter astonishment. Everyone was stunned. Did those old fogies even know what they were doing?

In the snow, the Dog Sword Immortal immortal lay dormant, its eyes glazed over, and muttered, "This efficiency... is incredible!"

Earlier, it saw the Ancestor of Night Prefecture carrying out large-scale construction projects with great enthusiasm. It had heard that they had been working on it for dozens of days, and it thought that this kind of hole would be difficult to dig.

As a result, it told them the coordinates, and after a group of old guys studied it carefully, they dug through it that very day!

That's incredibly fast.

Were they all just going through the motions and slacking off before the collaboration? Yet, when the need arose, they were able to get things done in one go!

The Doggy's expression changed; it stroked the emerald green Bamboo Sword, wary of the steaming, freshly made "Heavenly Immortal."

Then it looked towards Earthen City. Today, it was very lively there, as several Earth Immortal from Outer Domain had come together to visit the native land of Night Prefecture.

Furthermore, the celestial beings were alarmed and descended from the Above the Nine Heavens, carried by auspicious clouds, to the Earthen City.

In a flash, the Dog Sword Immortal realized that the Ancestor of Night Prefecture was choosing the right time and place, and these "pitch-black" old fellows had intentionally chosen this moment to "open the door."

The high-ranking officials in Earthen City were experiencing extremely turbulent emotions. They had just guessed that behind the eight tolls of the bell, there might be a dying Heavenly Immortal being intervening to help "Scorching Sun" erase its traces.

In the blink of an eye, this has been confirmed?!

In fact, the Earth Immortal Mu Qinghe and the others had no intention of verifying whether there were any so-called Heavenly Immortal, and were unwilling to provoke such a dying being.

However, the Ancestor of Night Prefecture helped them directly unearth this terrifying monster!

The high-ranking officials in Earthen City were inwardly "very angry," and if they weren't concerned about their own status and reputation, they would have already started cursing.

Have those old bastards gone mad? They're causing trouble again, doing things that are absolutely outrageous!

The several Earth Immortal who had come from afar to visit Earthen City were all tense and quite frightened. They really hadn't expected to encounter such a thing. How could it be such a coincidence?

Without a doubt, their view of the Night Prefecture Ancestor was negative!

"The stench of decay was so thick it was almost impenetrable. Their bodies were decaying, their cultivation had declined drastically, and their strength was severely damaged. They wouldn't be stronger than us, and they were about to die."

"That's right, there's no need to worry. Within the territory Jade Capital Radiation, there are no longer any true Heavenly God or Heavenly Immortal; at most, they are at the level of Earth Immortal Perfection!"

In Earthen City, high-ranking officials were exchanging information rapidly.

Under the night fog, with snow covering everything, the cave in front of the Fire Spring was large, not deep this time, but very open, with the scenery opposite clearly visible.

The Ancestor of Night Prefecture, who used to dig tunnels, has now opened a "gate".

Beyond the door, the lake shimmered, its surface rippling gently. Vibrant Immortal Lotus swayed in the breeze, scattering dazzling Immortal Light, while a white dragon swam beneath the water.

Deep within the God Lake, on a tranquil island, white mist lingered, exuding an incredibly rich Daoist aura. Two hazy figures sat cross-legged on two Daoist platforms, decaying and dilapidated, yet awe-inspiring.

They were two frail old men, looking as if they might breathe their last at any moment.

Without a doubt, they were once true Higher Deity — Heavenly God!

But now, the two are in big trouble.

The sudden opening of the "door" made them open their cloudy old eyes, and both of them felt... outrageous!

These newcomers, they actually stumbled upon a blind box scam?

"Heaven have mercy! We have found the founding Ancestor!" Several Ancestor on the Night Prefecture side shouted loudly.

On the other side of the portal, two elderly people, suffering from serious health problems, stood with blank expressions. In fact, neither of them was confident, because they saw Earthen City and thought they were being watched by the people of Jade Capital!

They were shocked, filled with doubt, and even considered fleeing for fear of being tracked down by Jade Capital.

The two were aware of their own condition. They were once Heavenly God, but now they were far from what they used to be. In their twilight years, they were no stronger than Earth Immortal.

The two were puzzled as to why the group of newcomers were so excited, as if they wanted to pay them homage.

The two suppressed their restless emotions, remaining silent and observing the situation.

"Are you truly the Patriarch Yuheng and the Patriarch Moyuan?" On the Night Prefecture side, someone called out the former names of the two decaying Heavenly God.

Furthermore, among the Ancestor of Night Prefecture, some stood in front of the gate and directly began to pluck the rare immortal Immortal Lotus from the lake.

"Ancestor, the lineage you left behind has declined in our generation. We have tried our best to catch up but have been unable to become Seven-Day Stacker. We only found this place by chance when we came across the scriptures you left behind..."

Yuheng and Mo Yuan were filled with suspicion. What was going on? Had their lineage not been broken yet? Was this their descendant?

However, even for the two of them, they were not among those Seven-Day Stacker in one day. It was only after they ascended to heaven that they had another fortuitous opportunity and eventually became Heavenly God.

Their faces twitched. These newcomers were quite audacious, daring to pluck the rare lotus pods from the lake right in front of them?

Try letting someone else do that; who would dare to be so insolent here!

Although this kind of Immortal Lotus is of little use to them, it is still a rare and Treasured Medicine in the outside world.

In fact, in Earthen City, a group of people had their eyes red with envy. That was Immortal Lotus planted by the Heavenly God, with a golden lotus pod and clearly mature lotus seeds inside.

Whether one aspires to become Seven-Day Stacker or transform into Earth Immortal, it is extremely difficult and requires the assistance of various Treasured Medicine.

The Golden Lotus Pod is one of the main ingredients in the refining of a certain Great Medicine for breaking through cultivation barriers!

"Can we obtain some Dragon Blood to save people?" The Ancestor of Night Prefecture spoke the most humble words, appearing extremely unassuming, yet he was actually very high-profile in his actions.

They targeted the white creature in the lake and successfully extracted some of its Dragon Blood. It was a white Flood Dragon that had consumed many Golden Lotus Pod.

Yuheng and Mo Yuan remained expressionless, their thoughts in disarray. These newcomers were truly audacious, verbally expressing respect while recklessly gathering herbs. The two wondered if they were seeing things, or if these people had gone mad.

"Awooo..." The White Flood Dragon roared in fury, its voice shaking heaven and earth.

The two decaying Heavenly God' faces darkened, and they roared, "Insolence!"

They had reached their breaking point; they had never seen such a schizophrenic person, whose words and actions were inconsistent.

The Ancestor of Night Prefecture immediately apologized respectfully and then withdrew... withdrawn again!

They then entered Earthen City.

Even the Dog Sword Immortal was stunned. It had brought Liu Mo's Black White Mountain and River Diagram with it, and had promised to unleash this powerful weapon if necessary.

However, it was never used.

The Ancestor of Night Prefecture did not cross the red line set by the Heavenly God; he knew when to stop.

"Senior Mu, Your Excellency, we have come to collect the bounty. The two deities behind that gate are Number Seven and Number Eight, wanted by the Jade Capital!"

The Ancestor of Night Prefecture secretly transmitted a message to Mu Qinghe and the envoy from Sky City. This was a secret report provided by the Dog Sword Immortal, and the information was reliable.

"What?" the envoy exclaimed in shock.

The two decaying Heavenly God were actually criminals wanted back then?

In truth, they were extremely wary of the Heavenly God and did not want to investigate, but the Ancestor of Night Prefecture had already informed them, and if they did not take action, they would bear a heavy responsibility!

In the past, some beings escaped from Jade Capital, and the authorities turned a blind eye and did not pursue them. Especially in the last few hundred years, due to the general environment, Earth Immortal have reached their peak. Even if they are orthodox, it is not worth it to seek out Heavenly God or Heavenly Immortal as criminals; that would be courting death.

However, Number Seven and Number Eight are different. When they fled back then, they committed a bloody crime and took away "secret items," which were specifically ordered to be brought back.

The higher-ups in Earthen City felt that the actions of Night Prefecture's Ancestor were somewhat "outrageous"!

Mu Qinghe, the envoy, and the others all felt that they were forced to apprehend the culprits this time. If they had a choice, they really didn't want to provoke those two. Even though their lifespans were coming to an end and their lives were fading, those two were, after all, once Heavenly God. Who knew what kind of terrifying methods they might still have up their sleeves?

"Report this to your superiors!" Mu Qinghe said secretly.

This matter can no longer be hidden; those old bastards from Night Prefecture have brought it up directly, and they can't pretend nothing happened.

The envoy personally addressed the several Earth Immortal who had come from Outer Domain: "Gentlemen, those two have committed a bloody crime in Jade Capital. We request your assistance in taking action. Rest assured, these two wanted criminals are only at the Earth Immortal level; they are no longer Heavenly God!"

Mu Qinghe also spoke up, saying, "If you want to take this further, perhaps you can find hope in those two!"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the several Earth Immortal immediately changed.

During this time, the two corrupt Heavenly God also pretended to be calm.

In fact, at this point, both sides were wary of each other, like a wolf caught between two wolves.

"Don't worry, if they were truly powerful, they would have already suppressed us with a flick of their wrist!" After saying this, the envoy secretly ordered his subordinates to immediately go to heaven to invite people!

A lucky cloud soared into the sky, tearing through the night fog, and returned to the city Above the Nine Heavens.

"Ah, Earthen City, Sky City, Jade Capital, it's been a long time, a faded memory!" The decaying Heavenly God spoke, realizing that the other party was about to make a move.

The two stopped pretending to be calm. One of them slowly raised his hand and pressed it towards the outside world. It was a large, dark blue hand that seemed to want to shatter the entire Earthen City.

In fact, the thick clouds in the sky exploded, which shows how powerful the attack was!

"I#!"

At this moment, even if they were unwilling, several Earth Immortal from the Eastern Land and the Western Sea joined forces with the Envoy and Mu Qinghe to take action, all for the sake of self-preservation!

The wondrous arts of immortality flourished, making the Earthen City dazzlingly bright. Countless symbols, like a sky full of stars, illuminated the night sky as if it were daytime, expanding outwards from the city!

At the same time, the Immortal Sword, the golden Great Hand Seal, the Phoenix Seal Script, and other weapons shot out simultaneously, all striking the Heavenly God's giant hand.

With a deafening roar, the massive, dark blue hand shattered the clouds, but it failed to obliterate the Earthen City. A combined attack from several Earth Immortal dimmed its light.

"I've already said it, they are no longer what they once were, they are now just Earth God!" the envoy said, trying to boost morale.

Boom!

The large, dark blue hand retreated and shattered the portal with a single blow, destroying the passage.

Whether it was Mu Qinghe, the two envoys, or the Earth Immortal from Outer Domain, they all breathed a sigh of relief. With a legitimate reason to appear, who would be willing to risk their life?

An Earth Immortal said, "There's nothing we can do about it. The passage is destroyed and cannot be reopened in the short term. We'll wait for reinforcements to arrive before making a decision."

The Ancestor of Night Prefecture revealed, "Actually, there is another path that can be opened at any time; we have dug two portals in total."

At this moment, Mu Qinghe and everyone else's faces darkened. Were these old guys out of their minds?!

The envoy remained expressionless and said, "Then I'll trouble you... to open it."

Because there are strict orders from above: if Number Seven and Number Eight are discovered, they must be hunted down and killed. The "secret artifact" they took away is too extraordinary and needs to be retrieved.

Several Earth Immortal regretted coming to Night Prefecture; their faces were extremely grim.

Without a doubt, the reputation of Ancestor Night Prefecture has declined significantly again!

Even though Mu Qinghe was born in Night Prefecture, she was still experiencing strong emotional fluctuations at this moment.

If you were to trace it back carefully, there might still be her descendants here, who would be considered her One of Us. However, she wanted to slap them.

However, she knew that these old guys from Night Prefecture were not to be trifled with; they possessed a forbidden artifact— the Heaven Stabilizing Divine Stake —which could potentially kill even Earth Immortal!

The Ancestor of Night Prefecture swiftly opened the Second Portal.

The envoy took a deep breath and said, "Chase! It's just Earth God. If we capture it, it will be a great achievement, bringing immense wealth and honor!"

Boom!

A tremendous commotion emanated from the depths of the gate; clearly, a fight had broken out, and the two decaying Heavenly God had not yet completely departed.

Soon, a beam of light pierced through the clouds in the dark sky and fell into the Earthen City. Reinforcements had arrived. They crossed the gate and went straight to apprehend the culprit.

In the distance, the Dog Sword Immortal muttered to himself, "Hmm, it seems there really are no more Heavenly Immortal in this era. The highest level these people from Sky City have is only at the Perfected Earth Immortal."

Then, it widened its eyes and discovered that the group of old bastards from Night Prefecture had reopened a portal and quietly passed by.

"You guys are really dogs!" commented the Dog Sword Immortal.

Inside the Earthen City, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment after witnessing this scene.

A Grandmaster from Night Prefecture explained, "The Ancestor have gone to encircle the enemy's rear, so don't worry!"

Some people really want to say: What a load of rubbish!

On one side of the portal the Earth Immortal had entered, the Dog Sword Immortal peeked out and observed carefully, discovering that the people who had been fighting had all gone far away.

Many people have two sides, and dogs are no exception.

At this moment, the Dog Sword Immortal Immortal's eyes became deep, staring at the very depths of the portal.

It came to deliver a message to the Ancestor of Night Prefecture, informing him of the coordinates, but that was secondary.

At this moment, it is an observer, more serious than ever before, scrutinizing and assessing the strength of those beings in the sky.

"It seems that Jade Capital has not truly recovered, and has not yet unleashed the True Tribulation Light to slay the enemy. The Dao Chains remains dormant. Hmm, Old Liu won't need to move for a while; perhaps he can weather this storm."

Its primary objective on this mission was to test the heavens' reaction.

Two decaying Heavenly God were unearthed, and after they were used as a base, the terrifying Jade Capital remained completely still.

The Dog Sword Immortal disappeared into the snow. It didn't dare to cross the doorway, fearing that there might be something wrong with the doorway that those old guys had dug.

Earthen City was in chaos. The people were filled with a mixture of excitement and unease. In this era, the existence of a corrupt Heavenly God within the territory Jade Capital Radiation was truly terrifying and left them deeply shocked.

At Black White Mountain, Liu Mo suddenly awoke from his dazed state with cloudy old eyes. Under the Black White Tree, he stood up abruptly, his eyes shooting out two terrifying beams of light, staring straight at the night sky, tearing through the heavens!

At that moment, the Talking Finch and the Red Squirrel on the Black White Twin Trees nearly wet themselves in fright.

With a whoosh, Liu Mo soared straight into the Nine Heavens!
