The Eruption of Silence

Time flies, and ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, the Heavenly Azure Continent was successfully transferred to the plane where Langya Heavenly Palace is located, and the fresh troops from the former greatly replenished the talent pool of the Langya Heavenly Palace.

Now, stepping into Langya City again, the scene is no longer the desolate place with many houses and few people. Years of development have given the city a vibrant new life, and even the Huan Continent is gradually recovering under its influence.

Over the past decade, the Spirit Array and various derivative products of the Langya Heavenly Palace have entered the Great Thousand World eye through the promotion of its affiliated chambers of Chamber of Commerce.

The spirit array plates of Langya Heavenly Palace are renowned throughout the continent for their convenience, speed, and excellent quality. Apart from being a little expensive, they have no other drawbacks. In fact, many powerful forces purchase them in large quantities for their affiliated forces and cities.

Thanks to industrial development, Langya Heavenly Palace has also made rapid progress, and in terms of financial resources alone, it is comparable to many established Super faction.

As for his strength, there is no record of Xiao Han, the Palace Master Langya Heavenly Palace, making any public moves after the Great War. Others can only speculate, but cannot come up with an accurate answer.

Langya Heavenly Palace, a Cultivation Secret Realm.

Two streaks of Flowing Light, one red and one blue, clashed in space. Each collision shattered the space for thousands of miles around them. In the next instant, the shattered space was pinched back together by an invisible hand, restoring it to its original state.

"Alright, stop."

Finally, the blue figure stopped first, revealing its face—it was Ice Emperor. The red figure that followed also stood facing down.

Liu Qingyang laughed breathlessly:

"Your Grand Supreme, is my strength worthy of your attention?"

He glanced at the water droplets seeping from the thin layer of ice covering his body, and nodded slightly.

"Your progress in strength is truly terrifying. An ordinary Great Perfection Earthly Supreme probably wouldn't last five moves against you."

Over the course of ten years, Liu Qingyang first spent five years completing the Spiritual Power Conversion and restoring his cultivation to the Upper Earthly Supreme. In the following three years, he successfully broke through to the Great Perfection Earthly Supreme.

After advancing to the Great Perfection Earthly Supreme, he spent two years refining his cultivation to near perfection through various means. To this end, he even went to great lengths to invite the Ice Emperor, one of the only two Heavenly Supreme Sovereigns in the Langya Heavenly Palace, to guide and hone his skills.

Hard work pays off. In terms of strength alone, Liu Qingyang now even faintly surpasses the four core Elder, including Yang Ling, in the Langya Heavenly Palace.

"This is all I can do to help you now. As the Plane Master, the threshold of the Heavenly Supreme cannot stop you. From now on, you must walk your own path."

"Thank you for your guidance, Your Grand Supreme."

Liu Qingyang smiled and expressed his gratitude.

"You've already paid me; it's my duty."

Ice Emperor's expression remained unchanged, and his tone was curt.

Despite the seemingly cold speaking style, Liu Qingyang didn't take it to heart. Through repeated guidance, he had figured out the former's temperament: cold on the outside but warm on the inside.

"If you're confident, break through as soon as possible."

Suddenly, Ice Emperor spoke.

"Could something major have happened?"

Liu Qingyang realized that things were not simple, his expression turned slightly serious, and he asked.

"More or less."

Ice Emperor did not deny it.

"You've been cultivating in the secret realm, so you might not be very aware of what's happening outside."

Do you remember that attack ten years ago?

"That's natural."

Liu Qingyang nodded in affirmation while recalling the scene when he first came to the Langya Heavenly Palace. At that time, Langya Heavenly Palace had just been attacked, and the entire sect was holding back their anger. However, later, in order to help Heavenly Azure Continent integrate into the sect, the disciples and Elder temporarily put aside their hatred.

But putting it aside for now doesn't mean forgetting it permanently, Ice Emperor's words prove this point.

"We can't seek revenge against the Blade Demon Race for the time being, so we can only collect some interest from the Extraterrestrial Evil race."

"They're just unlucky for those Savage Demon Race."

One month later, in the Council Hall of the Langya Heavenly Palace.

Xiao Han leaned back on the armrest of his seat, calmly observing his subordinates.

The integration of the Heavenly Azure Continent into the Langya Heavenly Palace has gradually had an impact, as evidenced by the presence of members from the Heavenly Azure Continent among the Elder present.

Meanwhile, the Elder below were also watching Xiao Han with anticipation. During this time, whether intentionally or unintentionally, some "rumors" had been circulating within the sect.

According to reports, the Palace Master intends to gather the elite forces of the Langya Heavenly Palace to launch a surprise attack on a certain Extraterrestrial Evil race that stands in opposition to the Huan Continent.

Those who can serve as Elder and are qualified to sit in the hall for discussions are at least at the level of Earthly Supreme and Grandmaster. With such strength, they are quick-witted and can naturally guess the source of the "rumors".

The convening of this meeting is clearly a prelude to taking action!

At the start of the meeting, Xiao Han went straight to the point, getting right to the heart of the matter.

"I think you all know the purpose of this meeting."

"Everyone's time is precious, so I won't have much more to say."

"This meeting is very simple!"

Xiao Han sat up straight, and influenced by him, everyone's expression also became serious.

"Ten years ago, the two Demon Emperors of the Extraterrestrial Evil race caused my Langya Heavenly Palace to suffer a loss."

"Now, I'm going to demand some interest from them; those big, dumb bastards from the Savage Demon Race bordering the Huan Continent are my target."

"Now, let's ask for your opinions: When should we fight? How should we fight? Who should lead the fight?"

Speak freely.

After the words were spoken, the Elder looked at each other, neither surprised nor opposed to the start of the war.

What caught me off guard was that the battle plan shouldn't have been devised by the Palace Master?

But since the Palace Master had said so, they had no choice but to comply.

While everyone was pondering battle plans, Xiao Han was also busy explaining the strength comparison between the two sides to the people in the hall.

Currently, Langya Heavenly Palace has approximately three hundred Earthly Supreme and Spirit Array Master, including ten Great Perfection Earthly Supreme and High-Level Spirit Array Master.

Two of them are about to break through.

"Um?!"

Xiao Han's words startled everyone in the hall. Who was about to break through?

The Elder looked at the empty seat near Xiao Han. The core Elder Tai Yun, You Ye, Qian Cha Sha were all present, but...

Elder Yang Ling?

Before meeting Xiao Han, Yang Ling had been immersed in the realm of high-level Spirit Array Master for many years. Later, after receiving Xiao Han's cultivation insights, and after years of study and enlightenment, he finally had a breakthrough a few months ago and went into seclusion to cultivate.

According to Xiao Han's judgment, Yang Ling's seclusion is very likely to add a new Great Spirit Array Master to the Langya Heavenly Palace.

What about the other one?

Since joining, Liu Qingyang has kept a low profile and has not left a deep impression on the people of the Langya Heavenly Palace. Only a few dozen Elder from the Heavenly Azure Continent, such as Yan Lie, have some guesses. While they are amazed, they can't help but envy him. Over the years, they have known the status of the Heavenly Supreme in the Great Thousand World, as well as the strength and difficulty of breaking through it.

Xiao Han did not answer the crowd's surprise and questions.

"The Heavenly Supreme Elder and I remain the Heavenly Sovereigns."

"And the Barbarian Demon race..."

Thinking about the possible reactions from everyone, Xiao Han couldn't help but reveal a slight, amused smile.

"Two Profound Demon Emperor, five Nether Demon Emperors, twenty Evil Clan leaders at the Great Perfection Earthly Supreme level, approximately five hundred Evil Clan powerhouses above the Earthly Supreme level, and the rest are not counted."

Seeing the crowd unconsciously falling into a daze, Xiao Han deliberately added,

"All of the above information was personally investigated by me and is absolutely reliable."

After a long silence, the atmosphere broke out.
