That single voice sent heaven and earth into upheaval, making the cosmos tremble!

A terrifying dragon's might came crashing down!

Under the horrified gazes of everyone from the various factions,

A massive pitch-black dragon claw, its muscles knotted and bulging, pressed down from the heavens.

Its dark scales gleamed with cold light. As the claw reached down, it tore cracks through the void, its fluctuations so terrifying that they made hearts quail.

"That aura... it is at least a Quasi-Supreme!" some older experts cried out in horror.

The Supreme Realm already stood at the pinnacle of the Immortal Domain.

And a Quasi-Supreme was the foremost existence beneath a Supreme!

Even within certain immortal lineages, Quasi-Supremes were absolute titans, existences akin to foundational pillars.

Yet now, a Quasi-Supreme had appeared, shocking all in every direction.

"No wonder Long Haotian dared to be so fearless. Someone is backing him, so naturally he has nothing to fear," some realized.

No matter how arrogant and conceited Long Haotian was, he could not possibly have truly come to the Jun Family alone.

Just as the Jun Family's young prodigies would not be foolish enough to venture alone into the Ancestral Dragon Nest to provoke them.

Someone behind Long Haotian was supporting and protecting him.

"Wonderful, Elder Nether Dragon has made his move!" A smile of surviving a desperate situation appeared on Long Haotian's face.

As long as one still had a life, there would be a chance to rise again.

The humiliation of today might not be impossible to wash away in the future.

"What? Could the one who came be that Nether Dragon Supreme from the Ancestral Dragon Nest?"

Hearing Long Haotian's words, some elderly cultivators revealed looks of shock.

Nether Dragon Supreme was an immensely powerful Quasi-Supreme of the Ancestral Dragon Nest, his true form a black dragon.

He had once, with the cultivation of a Quasi-Supreme, contended against a human Peerless Supreme, becoming famous in a single battle. His name spread throughout the Three Thousand Dao Provinces of the Immortal Domain.

He had merely hidden within the Ancestral Dragon Nest afterward and never emerged.

Now that he had reappeared in the world, his might still shook heaven and earth.

"Jun Family junior, do not push things too far. Let today's matter end here."

Nether Dragon Supreme's tone was indifferent and lofty.

Clearly, Long Haotian had been the one to stir up trouble first, coming to the Jun Family in an attempt to trample Jun Xiaoyao beneath his feet and make a name for himself.

Yet now, Nether Dragon Supreme wanted to wave it all away with a single sentence.

Of course, all Nether Dragon Supreme could do now was take Long Haotian away.

Trying to kill Jun Xiaoyao within the Jun Family's territory was no different from a fantasy beyond the skies.

Let alone that he was merely a Quasi-Supreme—even if a true Supreme of the Ancestral Dragon Nest arrived, he would be unable to kill Jun Xiaoyao on Jun Family land.

Hearing Nether Dragon Supreme's words, Long Haotian finally let out a breath of relief inwardly.

However, when he looked at Jun Xiaoyao, his gaze was filled with icy venom and resentment.

For the first time in his life, he had suffered such a miserable defeat.

In the end, he had even needed a senior of his clan to cast aside his dignity to save him.

It could be said that Long Haotian had never suffered such humiliation before.

The depth of his hatred for Jun Xiaoyao could well be imagined.

Seeing the look in Long Haotian's eyes, Jun Xiaoyao curled his lips into a cold smile. "What, are you going to say, 'Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river,' too?"

"Hmph, my elder brother Long Aotian will let you taste utter defeat!" Long Haotian said in a frigid tone.

He did not dare mention personally taking revenge anymore.

After all, the Desolate Ancient Sacred Body combined with the Supreme Bone was simply too powerful. It was not something he could contend with at all.

"Heh... unfortunately, no matter what happens, you will not live to see it." Jun Xiaoyao smiled. Under Long Haotian's stunned gaze, one hand continued pressing down upon him.

"Jun Xiaoyao, have you gone mad? You still dare attack me?!" Long Haotian's expression changed as he rapidly retreated.

"Insolence!"

From the horizon, Nether Dragon Supreme's voice boomed like thunder, shaking the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands.

A Quasi-Supreme like him had personally spoken, yet Jun Xiaoyao actually treated his words as though they were nothing.

Rumble!

The enormous dragon claw reached down directly from the sky.

Within the void, countless runes flashed with radiance. They were the Jun Family's defensive formations, which had sensed the fluctuations of power and manifested on their own.

Every ray of light among them was enough to make a Saint fall.

Yet now, they could not stop that dragon claw descending from above.

Wherever the dragon claw passed, countless formation runes exploded.

Nether Dragon Supreme had acted, not to deal with Jun Xiaoyao, but to take Long Haotian away.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The pitch-black dragon claw ripped apart the void, and formation runes exploded one after another.

Such was the might of a Quasi-Supreme!

"This... does the Jun Family have no reaction at all?"

Feeling that dreadful might, many people hastily scattered, while turning their gazes toward Jun Zhantian and the other elders.

A Quasi-Supreme from the Ancestral Dragon Nest had already taken action. Why did they still look so calm and unruffled?

Some observant people noticed that Jun Zhantian and the other elders all wore cold, mocking smiles at the corners of their mouths.

The powerful might of a Quasi-Supreme bore down, concentrated upon Jun Xiaoyao.

Had it been an ordinary young prodigy, he would likely have already been suppressed by that pressure, unable to move.

But Jun Xiaoyao ignored it completely and continued his attack.

He grabbed at the void, condensing the Underworld God's Spear, then hurled it directly at the fleeing Long Haotian, piercing through his chest.

Then, using the extreme speed of the Demon Wings, he raised his hand and struck Long Haotian with the swiftness of a thunderbolt before one could cover one's ears.

Crack!

A string of bone-cracking sounds rang out, making teeth ache.

Long Haotian vomited blood wildly. Every bone in his body had been shattered by the blow, and he fell to the ground, barely clinging to life.

Finally, Jun Xiaoyao stepped down from midair. That kick, empowered by forty thousand Divine Elephant Particles, directly crushed Long Haotian's chest.

Splurt!

A huge mouthful of blood, mixed with shattered internal organs, spewed from Long Haotian's mouth.

Even with the Dragon Race's physical body, he could not withstand such monstrous force.

Long Haotian's eyes bulged wide, his face filled with rage, shock, unwillingness, and a faint trace of regret.

"Elder brother... will not... let you go..."

Long Haotian stared wide-eyed, his words slurred. At last, his breath ceased, and he died with his eyes still open.

The dragon son of the Ancestral Dragon Nest had fallen!

And all of this had happened in merely an instant.

Even Nether Dragon Supreme had not expected Jun Xiaoyao's actions to be so decisive.

"Damn it!"

A furious roar shook the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands!

Nether Dragon Supreme was enraged!

Overwhelming pressure poured down like a tidal flood. The earth began to crack, and some nearby guests caught in its range were directly forced flat onto the ground.

In contrast, Jun Xiaoyao stood with his hands behind his back. His handsome face, as ethereal and refined as an immortal's, was still as an ancient well.

It was as though what he faced was not a Quasi-Supreme whose strength crowned the world, but merely an ordinary person.

At that moment, a cold snort sounded from the deepest reaches of the Jun Family.

"Since when did a mere Quasi-Supreme dare behave atrociously in my Jun Family?"

As those words fell, a vast and resplendent sword radiance tore through the air from deep within the Jun Family.

The sword radiance glittered, as though reflecting the terrifying sight of countless immortals falling. The void was directly ripped open into a pitch-black fissure!

Black spatial turbulence roared alongside the Sword Qi.

With one sweep of the sword, Nether Dragon Supreme let out an enraged roar.

A massive dragon arm, accompanied by dragon blood, fell from the depths of the sky.

One sword had severed one of Nether Dragon Supreme's dragon arms!

Everyone present felt their scalps about to explode!

The might of that sword radiance seemed capable of destroying the myriad heavens and worlds!

"It is the Jun Family's Immortal-Slaying Sword Art, one of the Five Divine Arts! The one who acted is the Jun Family's Eighteenth Ancestor!" someone cried out.

"Jun Family Eighteenth Ancestor, just you wait..." Nether Dragon Supreme's voice came from the horizon, filled with icy malice.

"Since you have come, then stay behind..."

Eighteenth Ancestor's voice rang out once more.

Immediately afterward, two more streaks of sword radiance from the Immortal-Slaying Sword Art slashed across the sky from deep within the Jun Family!

"No! Do you intend to ignite an Immortal War between the Ancestral Dragon Nest and the Jun Family?!"

Within the void, Nether Dragon Supreme's voice carried unprecedented terror.

If the two immortal factions truly launched an Immortal War, the entire Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain would plunge into turmoil unlike anything before.

"So what if it is an Immortal War? My Jun Family has stood in the Immortal Domain for countless years—when have we ever feared anyone!" Eighteenth Ancestor's tone was boundlessly domineering!

Splurt!

Above the heavens, the two streaks of sword radiance swept past in succession.

A torrential rain of blood poured down!

Heaven and earth wept together, and the cosmos shook!

A massive black dragon corpse fell from the distant heavens, like a deity falling from the sky!

The Jun Family's Eighteenth Ancestor used three swords to slay a Quasi-Supreme of the Ancestral Dragon Nest!
