Great God Heaven—Suppression
Within the Void Refining Ancient Race Clan Land, inside the core hall beneath the formation.
Lian Wan's incarnation had not dissipated, but his expression was extremely grim. His true body had been suppressed in the blink of an eye.
Ya Mi Xiu Fu, standing nearby, had also condensed another incarnation here, and his expression was equally unsightly.
"Clan Ancestor, do we really need to resist to the death?" Lian Wan asked bitterly.
Among those with incarnations here were Devil Blade Mo Bai Luo, Kan Zhe Lun, Hegus, and several other Great God Heavens of the Void Refining Ancient Race. There were already more than ten of them.
Satos and Hewens still had their true bodies undergoing recovery.
"Clan Ancestor, there are countless clansmen within the clan land. If they truly attack, I'm afraid they'll all die!" Hewens said in a low voice as well.
They could originally have gathered their clansmen into the ancestral land, but during the negotiations between both sides, they had not dared to do so. Once they made a move, Sword Demon and Blade Demon would inevitably act to destroy the formation.
"Clan Ancestor, if Hewens and I are suppressed again, the strength of our Void Refining Ancient Race may be weakened," Satos said as well.
The true bodies of Hewens and himself were recovering within the clan. If Sword Demon and the others occupied this place and suppressed them, the Great God Heaven foundation of the Void Refining Ancient Race would likely lose nearly a third.
"Handing over the Dark Realm Race clansmen is nothing, but can we even produce two Emperor Weapons? This is simply going too far." Kan Zhe Lun gritted his teeth in fury.
If he had known those two were now this terrifyingly strong, he should have killed them with everything he had back then.
He regretted it immensely.
"I didn't expect Primordial Chaos Heaven to have such nerve." Ya Mi Xiu Fu pondered for a moment. Looking up at the void, his expression suddenly changed again. "Not good!"
A terrifying blade radiance viciously slashed toward their Clan Protecting Grand Formation—
Boom!
As the slash fell, endless multicolored light erupted from the formation. A single movement affected the entire formation. The whole formation trembled as it sought to disperse the impact of the slash, and the resulting turbulence destroyed countless palaces below. Some weaker lifeforms, such as those below the God Heaven Realm, had their divine bodies and Divine Souls shattered directly by the force of the tremors, collapsing one after another.
At the Formation Core, the force of the impact severely injured the God Heaven Realm experts guarding it. They could only rely on puppet lifeforms to sustain it.
But such support could not last long at all.
If not for the defensive power of Hewens and Satos within the hall where Ya Mi Xiu Fu and the others were located, even their incarnations would have shattered.
"Quick! At all costs, bring all the clansmen into the ancestral land!" Ya Mi Xiu Fu's voice rang out, murderous intent filling his eyes. Since Blade Demon had already made his move, he could only race against time now.
Naturally, he did not wish to bow his head either.
Within their ancestral land was their strongest defensive formation, personally laid down by their First Clan Ancestor. No outside lifeform could possibly break in, nor could they even damage it.
If the Void Refining Ancient Race yielded, that would be the greatest joke.
Ever since they had become the foremost Emperor Race, who had ever dared treat the Void Refining Ancient Race this way? They would kill anyone who forged treasures using Void Refining Ancient Race dragon bones or bloodline power. They had always been incomparably proud to their very bones, standing a rank above even other Emperor Races. How could a Sword Demon and a Blade Demon possibly make them submit?
"Hewens, Satos, the two of you assist in maintaining the formation and buy them more time. Also, watch for the right moment and be ready to flee back into the ancestral land at any time. Don't give them any opportunity," Ya Mi Xiu Fu shouted again.
Through the formation, he stared fixedly at the three figures outside. Once their First Clan Ancestor returned, they would definitely exact vicious revenge.
At this moment—
Another slash struck down, and the entire Clan Protecting Grand Formation shook once more. This tremor was even more intense than the last. Under this impact, more than half of the countless palace buildings shattered at once. Formation patterns also lit up within the hall where they were located, resisting the effects of the tremors.
At this moment, the Void Refining Ancient Race Clan Land was thrown into complete chaos. The God Heaven Realm experts and Primordial Chaos Realm lifeforms living here were all dumbfounded. Vast numbers of Primordial Chaos Realm lifeforms were directly shaken to death, while God Heaven Realm experts were injured. It was an utterly tragic sight.
To them, it was like the end of the world.
Amid this apocalyptic scene, the sabers carried by some clansmen began to hum. Some even shot directly into the sky.
"Blade Demon!" Sensing this, Ya Mi Xiu Fu's expression turned even colder. When he had encountered that brat Blade Demon in Asura Palace, his strength had not yet reached this level. It seemed that he had improved again.
How long had it been? Once he broke through into the Great God Heaven, who could possibly handle him?
At this thought, even though he was merely an incarnation, his face still twitched slightly.
"This Blade Demon has far too much potential. This time, his attack on our Void Refining Ancient Race is likely not just for revenge. His main objective is probably the Dark Realm Race lifeforms. He wants to use the Dark Realm Race Bloodline to enter the Dark Realm Race Ancestral Land and seize Dao. What a fine scheme. Unfortunately, entering that place to seize Dao is impossible." Ya Mi Xiu Fu snorted coldly.
They had seen through everything far too clearly.
Back then, Sword Demon had completed his Dao seizure only after entering the Dark Realm Race Ancestral Land. Otherwise, if he had remained outside and been detected, the other Great God Heavens would have interfered.
"A Primordial Chaos Godfiend's Dao seizure will cause an even greater commotion. It cannot possibly be concealed. Let's see whether you, Blade Demon, dare to seize Dao."
Above the void.
Luo Feng could not help but marvel. "This formation is truly powerful. It took two consecutive strikes from me, yet it still wasn't broken." He had used every method at his disposal—the Innate Primordial Chaos Spiritual Treasure, the Emperor Blade, and even some power from the Star Tower—yet he still could not break through it.
"This formation is far more profound than when we first came here. They likely strengthened it to guard against me, but they did not expect that you would reach this level as well." Azure Profound Monarch smiled faintly. Luo Feng's strength was even greater than he had anticipated.
Especially when the second slash landed, it carried a certain profound intent that stirred resonance from some of the sabers beneath the grand formation. Saber cries rose in alarm from below.
"With your current attack power, this formation will completely collapse in fewer than ten strikes. But there's no need for that much trouble. A small portion of those fellows has already fled into their ancestral land. Letting a small portion escape is good enough."
As Azure Profound Monarch spoke, the Azure Profound Sword appeared in his hand. He casually slashed downward. The slash appeared ordinary, but as it fell, endless intent of heaven and earth formed Sword Intent Power. Following the sword's trajectory, it became a streak of sword qi that crashed into the trembling formation.
Boom!
One slash directly tore open the Void Refining Ancient Race's Clan Protecting Grand Formation. Immediately afterward, it triggered a chain reaction. As the sword qi exploded, the entire formation ruptured everywhere. Countless streaks of sword qi ravaged the entire Void Refining Ancient Race Clan Land. Wherever they passed, every lifeform was surrounded by sword qi and could not move at all. The moment they moved, they would be killed!
As for the incarnations of those fellows in the core hall, Azure Profound Monarch extinguished them all with a tremor of his sword intent.
"Let's go in. It seems a few of them will still have to be captured alive." As Azure Profound Monarch's voice fell, he was already the first to charge into the formation.
Luo Feng, Wind God, Bewitching Heart Demon, and Qi Zheng followed close behind.
Suppressing the Void Refining Ancient Race was the best option.
Besides Lian Wan, there were other Great God Heavens within the clan.
Within their domain, there was naturally nowhere to hide.
"Hmph, trying to run?!" Azure Profound Monarch snorted coldly, and his sword intent domain instantly forced its way into the formation within their territory. With a single thought, he arrived outside the Void Refining Ancient Race's ancestral land. Here, a terrifying formation roiled. Even Azure Profound Monarch was deeply alarmed by its power. "As expected of the Void Refining Ancestor. He actually created such a formation."
His appearance directly blocked the path of those Void Refining Ancient Race clansmen.
Since they had dragged things out, they could not blame him.
"I originally gave you a chance to hide, but you were too slow." Azure Profound Monarch shook his head. The reason he had not immediately acted and started killing was indeed because he had considered the possibility of negotiations. He still held some apprehension toward the Void Refining Ancient Race's First Clan Ancestor, so he had not exterminated them all.
Though he had not wiped them out completely, those who were too slow either chose to self-destruct or were suppressed.
Hewens and Satos were leading a group of clansmen, but their Space Channel was directly severed, completely cutting off their path.
Luo Feng, Wind God, Qi Zheng, and Bewitching Heart Demon immediately rushed toward Hewens and Satos.
"Get in!" With a flick of his hand, Luo Feng threw out the Star Tower. Terrifying Devouring Power descended upon Hewens. His face turned deathly pale, but his current strength had only recovered to the level of an ordinary Great God Heaven of the Celestial Race. How could he resist the power of the Star Tower? He could not even struggle before being directly sealed into the tower.
Hewens was clever. Moreover, with so many clansmen on him, he did not dare self-destruct. Instead, he was suppressed.
Then came Satos. The same thing happened, and he was suppressed into the Star Tower for the second time.
As for the other lifeforms trapped within individual worlds of sword qi, under Azure Profound Monarch's control, they too were eventually gathered at the bottom of the Star Tower and suppressed one by one.
From the moment they acted until now, only a short time had passed. Within the entire Void Refining Ancient Race Clan Land, apart from Luo Feng and the others, no other lifeforms remained. They had either been suppressed or torn apart by sword qi. There was no other possibility.
Whoosh!
Luo Feng, Wind God, and Qi Zheng also flew over to where Azure Profound Monarch was. This was precisely the Void Refining Ancient Race's ancestral land. In the spacetime outside it, powerful formation might churned violently. Part of this formation might seemed to belong to the rules of heaven and earth, while another part had been formed by an acquired formation. It was exceptionally terrifying.
"Qing Ge, can this formation be broken?" Luo Feng looked at the roiling might in the void and asked.
"It's difficult. The formation here has fused with the rules of heaven and earth. The space of Nine Nether Earth is too stable. Give me a few thousand more epochs of cultivation, and I should be able to destroy it," Azure Profound Monarch said. "Let those fellows who hid inside count themselves lucky. The bargaining chips in our hands are already enough. I believe they will consider our terms. Most importantly, we still need to give that old fellow some face."
Some information Azure Profound Monarch had learned from the Emperor Envoy had made him remain wary of the foremost Clan Ancestors of the several Emperor Races.
Compared to those foremost Clan Ancestors of the Emperor Races, he had cultivated for far too short a time. There was still some gap between him and those old fellows.
Luo Feng nodded. The Void Refining Ancient Race's First Clan Ancestor was an extremely terrifying old fellow. No one knew how long he had lived. Even compared to Azure Profound Monarch, the difference in time was likely countless times over.
