Three Clans' Schemes

As Luo Qing fled towards the core of the Wind Spirit Mountain Range.

Outside Wind Spirit Mountain, in two other directions.

To the south, a sea of fire clouds stretching for ten thousand miles, like a fire phoenix, also headed towards Wind Spirit Mountain.

To the northeast, a vast expanse of Profound Yellow Qi surged towards the Wind Spirit Mountain Range.

The Three Clans of Creation seemed to have made an arrangement, each sending one Grand Luo Golden Immortal and fifteen Taiyi Golden Immortals.

The three clans formed their ranks and began to encircle Wind Spirit Gorge from the outer reaches of the Wind Spirit Mountain Range.

Golden Immortals and Gold Gods encountered along the way were all spared.

However, any Taiyi Golden Immortals were driven towards Wind Spirit Gorge.

"Damn it, what does the Phoenix Clan mean by this? They won't let us leave and are driving us into this place!"

"It's not just the Phoenix Clan; the Kirin Clan and the Dragon Clan are also incredibly overbearing. Many fellow Daoists have been driven here!"

"What are these three clans trying to do? Even if they want to occupy the Wind Spirit treasure, they could just drive us away. Why surround us and not let us leave? What kind of logic is that?"

Over one hundred and fifty Taiyi Golden Immortals were surrounded by the three clans near Wind Spirit Gorge.

At this point, no one cared about the Immortal Path or the Divine Path.

All the gods wore worried expressions.

The three clans had Grand Luo Golden Immortal powerhouses present. If they wanted to annihilate them, it would only take a flick of their fingers.

Who wouldn't worry about becoming a casualty of the three clans?

Luo Qing also hadn't expected to be so unlucky.

He had merely been curious about the Wind Spirit treasure, only to be cornered here by the powerhouses of the Three Clans of Creation.

A hundred or so Taiyi Golden Immortals held no interest for the three clans.

Luo Qing turned his gaze towards Wind Spirit Gorge.

What treasure had the Wind Spirit Clan left behind to attract all three clans?

A top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure? Or perhaps an Innate Supreme Treasure?

Just as the immortals were worrying.

Daoist Xiang, who had been mocked by the immortals earlier, seemed to have taken a nap.

The fluctuations of his aura instantly subsided and recovered.

But when Daoist Xiang opened his eyes again, they had changed from white to dark gray.

His eyes were as calm as stagnant water, devoid of any emotional fluctuation.

Daoist Xiang, as usual, arrived at the edge of Wind Spirit Gorge, his eyes, filled with wisdom, gazing into the depths of the gorge.

"The Wind Spirit Tiger Ancestor self-destructed back then, even destroying his companion Spiritual Treasure. What treasure could he possibly have left behind?"

"Daoist Xiang" pondered silently.

Outside the core area of Wind Spirit Mountain.

The Dragon, Phoenix, and Kirin clans each guarded a direction, their three Grand Luo powerhouses exuding magnificent auras to awe the assembled immortals.

Subtly, the three Grand Luo powerhouses were also in a state of confrontation and balance.

The Grand Luo of the Dragon Clan glanced towards Wind Spirit Gorge before speaking:

"Fellow Daoists, the time has come. We should make our move!"

The Grand Luo of the Kirin Clan's voice rumbled like muffled thunder.

"Then let's act. First, we'll seal the space around Wind Spirit Gorge, and then drive these Taiyi cultivators to scout for us."

The Grand Luo of the Phoenix Clan also chimed in, unwilling to be outdone.

"Good! If we find that item, the three of us can then compete based on our own abilities!"

The three clans had not yet completely fallen out. There was both cooperation and rivalry among them.

This exploration of Wind Spirit Gorge was a result of the three clans working together and their resulting standoff.

None of them wished to rashly initiate a war. Under this balance, they each sent one Grand Luo and fifteen Taiyi cultivators.

The three clans agreed that whichever clan found the item they were looking for could study it for one Era first.

After that, it would be handed over to the other two clans in rotation.

"Then let's begin!"

A cold glint flashed in the golden dragon eyes of the Grand Luo of the Dragon Clan.

With the three Grand Luo reaching a consensus, their Grand Luo magic power surged forth.

Each Grand Luo took out three treasure banners, a total of nine treasure banners, which encircled an area of a million li around Wind Spirit Gorge.

The nine treasure banners were all top-grade Acquired Spiritual Treasures: three Flame Phoenix Banners, three Water Origin Dragon Banners, and three Earth Element Kirin Banners.

These nine top-grade Acquired Spiritual Treasure banners combined to form the Three Essences Three Elements Void Severing Great Array.

Under the shroud of the Sky-Severing Great Array, all spatial displacement techniques were rendered incapable of crossing its boundaries.

Even the spatial turbulence was severed.

Now, if anyone encountered the Chaos Wind within Wind Spirit Gorge, they could at most be teleported to the edge of the great array.

The great array circulated, its completion now absolute.

The Dragon Clan Grand Unity also let out a sigh of relief, smiling as he said:

"With this great array established, that thing is already within our grasp! Fellow Daoists, let us act together!"

"Well said!"

"Good!"

As soon as the three spoke, they simultaneously unleashed their boundless Grand Unity magical power.

The essence of water, fire, and earth began to surge.

A torrent of essence fire swept across a radius of ten thousand miles, surging towards Wind Spirit Gorge.

Similarly, a monstrous tidal wave erupted from the hands of the Dragon Clan Grand Unity.

The Kirin Grand Unity, however, conjured a colossal illusory mountain that descended upon Wind Spirit Gorge.

The three Grand Unity cultivators simultaneously launched a grand offensive against the Immortals gathered near Wind Spirit Gorge.

Such a commotion naturally could not escape the notice of over a hundred Taiyi Golden Immortals.

Or rather, the three clans' Grand Unity cultivators had done it deliberately.

Three Grand Unity divine abilities swept down, their power astonishing, causing the trapped Taiyi Golden Immortals to change color.

"This is bad, the three clans intend to make an example of us. We're surrounded by three Grand Unity cultivators, with no escape!"

"The great array outside is blocking us, and spatial teleportation is useless!"

"Are the three clans trying to slaughter us? Aren't they afraid of incurring the wrath of all gods and facing a united assault?"

Seeing the Immortals fall into a panic, even Luo Qing's expression grew grave.

As the three Grand Unity divine abilities slowly descended.

The three clans' Grand Unity cultivators were clearly forcing them to brave Wind Spirit Gorge.

Stay and resist the Grand Unity divine abilities?

Luo Qing shook his head; that would be courting death.

The only path to survival now seemed to be within Wind Spirit Gorge.

Even the great battle between the Fierce Beasts and the Wind Spirit Clan in the past hadn't completely destroyed Wind Spirit Gorge, so it was unlikely that three Grand Unity Golden Immortals could fully overcome it.

Luo Qing didn't hesitate. With a resolute heart, he immediately plunged into Wind Spirit Gorge.

There were many intelligent individuals. The three clans' Grand Unity cultivators unleashed such immense yet slow-moving divine abilities.

Clearly, they didn't intend to kill them.

As the three Grand Unity divine abilities drew nearer, streams of spiritual light rose from various locations and descended into Wind Spirit Gorge.

Even the surrounded Gold Gods and Mystic Immortals had no choice but to enter the gorge.

Remaining above the gorge meant certain death.

With a thunderous roar.

The three Grand Unity divine abilities, having accumulated immense power, swept across a million miles of land, crashing into Wind Spirit Gorge.

After the three Grand Unity divine abilities dissipated, Wind Spirit Gorge, which appeared fragile, had only some of its edges shattered; the rest remained completely unharmed.

Of course, the over a hundred Taiyi and nearly a thousand Gold Immortals gathered around had no choice but to flee into the gorge.

The Dragon Clan Grand Unity glanced at the fifteen Taiyi True Dragons behind him and said:

"It's your turn to depart. I don't need to tell you what to do, do I?"

"We understand!"

Not only the Dragon Clan, but all the Taiyi Golden Immortals from the Phoenix and Kirin clans also transformed into streams of light and entered Wind Spirit Gorge.

This was Luo Qing's second time venturing deep into Wind Spirit Gorge, and his Eye of the Great Dao dared not rest for a moment.

This time was different from before; over a hundred Taiyi cultivators had entered at once.

In such an environment, being ambushed could easily lead to death.

"This time, I truly need to be wary of the Chaos Wind!"

Luo Qing walked cautiously within the gorge.

The outer area was sealed by the three clans' great array; who knew what fate awaited them if they were teleported out.

Luo Qing had no desire to fall into the hands of the three clans' Grand Unity cultivators and be at their mercy.
