Supreme One City, the grandest and most enormous city in Longevity Heaven, remained unchanged in every respect, yet a layer of dark clouds hung over it.
The Supreme One Clan had returned without losing a single person, but neither had they killed anyone from Konoha. Even after employing countless methods, they had still failed to breach Konoha. No one could believe it.
The situation had now made many people uneasy. Many Supreme One Clan cultivators were reflecting on everything that had happened and searching for a solution. Yet no matter how they deduced it, Lin Chuan's spatial arts remained an obstacle they could not bypass. So long as this problem remained unsolved, even if they truly destroyed Konoha, they would be unable to achieve the results they wanted.
Within the Supreme One Clan's palace, everyone felt deeply oppressed. The former luxury and indulgence had vanished. After this battle, they all sensed that a storm was approaching.
Several thousand meters beneath the palace.
Crown Prince Changqing and ten Mahayana-stage elders of the clan stood at the entrance to a vast cavern. A layer of golden Supreme One Scripture seals shimmered at the entrance, flickering with brilliant, wavering light.
Standing at the front, Crown Prince Changqing took a deep breath. He had not expected things to ultimately come to this.
"Sacred Ancestor, I have exhausted all means. Nor can I mobilize the entire clan to annihilate Konoha. Even if we win, the consequences would be unthinkable. This time, I can only disturb your rest," Crown Prince Changqing said respectfully into the cave.
Immediately afterward, he raised his hand and formed a series of seals, sending several golden hand signs into the seal at the cavern entrance.
The golden light slowly withdrew. After flickering a few times, the seal vanished without a trace.
