They Came, They Came-He Really Came!

Qing Province, in the Southern Region.

Xuanqing Sect.

Within the sect, atop a towering, cloud-shrouded peak, stands an ancient and magnificent palace.

The Deliberation Hall is located here.

At this moment, Yan Changkong sat at the head of the table, his brows slightly furrowed, and a trace of sorrow occasionally flashed in the depths of his eyes.

Not long after, Great Elder Chen Xiu and a dozen other elders arrived.

They arrived separately.

They were all surprised that Yan Changkong was here so early, and felt a little embarrassed, bowing and apologizing one by one.

Yan Changkong waved his hand and sighed, "No need for formalities, please sit down."

Yan Changkong's prestige within the sect is growing daily.

Under his series of measures, the Xuanqing Sect also flourished and developed at a remarkable pace.

Yan Changkong cut to the chase, looking at Great Elder Chen Xiu, and asked in a deep voice:

"Have you found out everything?"

"Why have all the top forces in the Cultivation World gathered in Heavenly Mist Domain?"

The Heavenly Mist Domain is separated from the Southern Region by countless mountains and seas.

Therefore, the Xuanqing Sect received the news a little later than usual.

However, the gathering of so many forces is quite unusual. Yan Changkong speculates that it is very likely related to Ancestor Lin Feng.

This is also why he has been looking worried these past two days.

Great Elder Chen Xiu replied solemnly, "Reporting to the Sect Master, news has indeed arrived!"

"After arriving in Qing Province, all the major forces have been behaving strangely, searching everywhere and setting up divine sense arrays."

Chen Xiu said with certainty, "They must be looking for something, but whether it's an object or a person, we don't know yet!"

"The local sects of Heavenly Mist Domain are all staying indoors, observing the situation."

After he finished speaking, the hall fell silent.

Yan Changkong lowered his head, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes. After a moment, he slowly said:

"The sects of Heavenly Mist Domain certainly wouldn't dare to act rashly at this moment."

"The intentions of those powerful forces are already quite clear; they won't take action against them."

He paused, then continued, "Looking for something?"

After taking a deep breath, Yan Changkong said in a deep voice, "If I'm not mistaken, this matter is most likely related to Ancestor Lin Feng!"

Upon hearing this, all the elders wore solemn expressions.

However, this is understandable.

In the past six months, many major events in the Cultivation World have been related to Ancestor Lin Feng.

This will likely be no exception.

The fact that both the Liyue Immortal Dynasty and the Jade Pool Holy Land mobilized a large number of elite troops speaks volumes.

Great Elder Chen Xiu asked, "Sect Master, what should we do then?"

"If this truly concerns Ancestor Lin Feng, we absolutely cannot stand idly by!"

The other elders pondered for a moment, then responded in unison.

Yan Changkong took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Don't act rashly. Continue to gather information."

"If this truly harms our ancestor, then with the full strength of our sect, the Xuanqing Sect will stand with him through thick and thin!"

The elders wholeheartedly agreed and said in unison, "We will stand with our ancestor through thick and thin!"

Yan Changkong and the other elders exchanged glances, all of them seeing the resolute look in each other's eyes.

To survive, one can be willing to endure hardship!

However, they did not simply back down and give in. They all knew that the Xuanqing Sect's success today was due to the existence of Ancestor Lin Feng.

If a sect stands idly by while its patriarch is in peril, doing nothing, then there is no need for it to continue.

A few more moments passed.

Yan Changkong exhaled, his expression softening somewhat. He glanced around and smiled.

"However, there's no need for everyone to be pessimistic now. How could our ancestor be an ordinary person?"

"It will be extremely difficult for anyone to deal with him!"

The atmosphere at the scene then eased somewhat.

The elders thought about it again and realized that it made sense; Lin Feng was the most powerful emperor in the world, as recognized by all.

A being whose strength surpasses all others throughout history!

Looking across the entire Cultivation World's top powers, who would dare to easily touch him?

Yan Changkong smiled again and said, "We dare not delay the sect's development in any way!"

"This is the top priority!"

"Recently, all aspects of the sect's undertakings have flourished and achieved great success, attracting geniuses from all states and giving rise to a group of outstanding young cultivators!"

The Great Elder and the others nodded repeatedly, their faces beaming with joy.

The Xuanqing Sect is indeed changing rapidly, with each passing day bringing a sense of its leaps and bounds forward.

"Transform the sect into a top-tier, unparalleled power!"

"This goal cannot be changed!"

Yan Changkong raised his head and puffed out his chest, his heroic spirit rising as he said, "However, we cannot blindly push forward. Even Ancestor Lin Feng entered a secret realm, he had to conduct a risk assessment and have an action plan!"

"Therefore, I have decided to formulate a millennium development plan for the sect!"

"That is, a timeframe of one thousand years."

"Specifically, it will be divided into three steps. The first three hundred years will be spent firmly establishing ourselves in Qing Province and striving to become the number one power in Qing Province."

"The second three hundred years, let's leave Qing Province!"

"In the last four hundred years, the sect's overall strength and influence in the Cultivation World reached the level of a top-tier sect!"

After he finished speaking, there was complete silence.

They could only hear each other breathing, and the sound was becoming increasingly rapid...

The elders pondered in their hearts, their eyes gleaming!

In the hearts of some elders, Yan Changkong's proposed millennium plan was like a guiding light.

Suddenly, I had a goal and a direction!

They now possess profound cultivation techniques and the backing of a great emperor; none of this is mere wishful thinking, but something they can truly achieve!

The Great Elder stood up excitedly, his face flushed, and roared, "I, Chen Xiu, swear to serve the sect to the death and support the sect leader's decision!"

"We swear to be loyal to the sect to the death and support the sect leader's decision!"

The other elders also stood up, looked at Yan Changkong, and shouted excitedly.

Two flowers bloom, each representing a different branch.

At the same time.

Qing Province, Heavenly Mist Domain!

A fierce battle between cultivators is raging within a sprawling mountain range.

The various factions clashed fiercely, creating a terrifying spectacle.

These were all cultivators at the Mahayana Realm who made their moves. As their supernatural powers and spells clashed, the heavens and earth trembled, and the wind and clouds changed color.

The two sides in the battle were the Jiang Clan, along with the Xuanxu Sect, the Hua Clan, and the Wan Clan, among other forces.

Wu Ping stood in mid-air, steadying himself, and looked coldly at Jiang Tang opposite him:

"Isn't your Jiang Clan a bit too domineering?"

The Hua Clan and Wan Clan families standing nearby were also furious, yet found it unbelievable.

Especially the way she looked at Chu Jiang...

Strange and puzzling.

They never expected that the Jiang Clan would actually send reinforcements, seemingly determined to fight them to the death.

In the past few days, they have already fought three or four major battles.

Under Chu Jiang's leadership, these members of the Jiang Clan were like mad dogs, wanting to rush up and bite anyone they could get their hands on.

The Xuanxu Sect, along with the Hua Clan Wan Clan, could no longer bear the harassment and finally joined forces today to fight the Jiang Clan to the death.

Jiang Tang, a dignified-looking middle-aged man, said calmly, "I have come on the orders of the Ancestor!"

"How?"

"You have the audacity to join forces to bully my Jiang Clan, but you dare not bear the consequences?"

Among the Jiang Clan members, Jiang Wang's lips moved slightly.

In the end, he couldn't utter a single word.

Things have escalated to this point, there's no point in saying anything more, the only option is to fight, otherwise people will just think the Jiang Clan is afraid.

Besides, Jiang Wuji had already given the order; what could he possibly say?

"Then there's no need to say anything more, let's keep fighting!"

Wu Ping's face was ashen. He was already seething with anger, and now that he had an ally, he decided to go all out.

A glint of light flashed in Chu Jiang's eyes as he shouted, "Kill! Fight for the Jiang Clan!"

Bang bang bang!

The two sides clashed again in an instant; these were all top-tier forces.

Various supernatural powers and techniques, exquisitely crafted.

The magical artifact shone brightly, unleashing its power.

In an instant, mountain ranges were swept away by the storm, and the terrifying tremor reached far and wide.

Above the Nine Heavens!

Suddenly, a flash of green light appeared, and a beautiful figure landed not far away, watching the great battle unfold before her.

It was Qingdai, who had only been in Heavenly Mist Domain for a few days.

Qingdai wore a light blue long dress, revealing a deep, unfathomable cleavage at the chest.

A gentle breeze blew, causing her skirt to flutter.

"Why are they fighting like dogs?"

A look of doubt flashed in Qingdai's eyes. She had been nearby and sensed the fluctuations of the battle, so she came to investigate.

Unexpectedly, they witnessed the Jiang Clan and the Xuanxu Sect going to war.

She was also somewhat surprised.

Qingdai frowned, preparing to fly away, when suddenly her delicate body trembled.

His gaze suddenly turned to the distant sky...

Just now!

A powerful aftershock of a divine power lingered for a moment as it swept across that void before being dissolved and vanished without a trace by some great force.

"A powerful expert has set up a protective array in that area!"

As Ninth-Rank Spirit Beast and a great emperor among demons, how sharp was Qingdai's divine sense?

I immediately sensed something was wrong.

Immediately, she vanished from the spot, her figure transforming into a streak of green light and disappearing into the distance.

The next moment.

Qingdai appeared atop a mountain dozens of miles away, her face showing excitement as she gazed into the distance.

A landscape painting, like a fairyland, appeared before my eyes.

A sea of clouds surged around the mountainside, while in the distance, the Milky Way seemed to cascade down, and a magnificent rainbow stretched between the two peaks.

With a slight thought, a terrifying divine sense spread out like a tidal wave...

Keep aiming for five stars! Five stars! Let's push the rating up!

Very important, thank you so much!!!
