Lan State, Ku Xuan Sect.
"How is it? Are you ready?"
Fang Yuan stood proudly in the air, gazing down at the mountain gate and the densely packed cultivators within.
Although Ku Xuan Sect was a sect that had produced an immortal, and its Guardian Great Array had been activated long ago, the cultivators inside felt not the slightest sense of safety.

Fang Yuan vanished with a single teleport, while the remaining cultivators all breathed a huge sigh of relief, looking as though they'd narrowly escaped death.
"He's finally... gone!"
"This man's vicious reputation reaches the heavens. Even when Taiyi Great Powers joined forces with an Immortal Old Ancestor, they couldn't do anything to him. He even destroyed two sects—he's truly vicious beyond compare, utterly outrageous!"
"Where's the immortal from our Ku Xuan Sect? Why aren't they here?"

"If they had returned... perhaps even the immortal would have fallen victim to him?"
Relieved yet shaken, they chattered among themselves,
