"Are you crazy?" Elder Futu Xuan of the Pagoda Ancient Clan exclaimed anxiously.

This was the first time he had ever been truly enraged since he suppressed Qing Yanjing, who had caused a disturbance in the clan, at the Ancestral Pagoda.

Why is it that none of these prodigies are easy to deal with?

Qing Yanjing looked like this back then, and Futu Yun looks the same now.

He actually wants to abandon the Endless Light Body he has already pledged allegiance to, and instead cultivate the Great Solar Undying Body?

As the Grand Elder of the Pagoda Ancient Clan, he naturally knew this.

Although the Great Solar Undying Body is not among the Ninety-Nine Grade Supreme Dharma Body,

However, it is ultimately the prototype of the Primordial Dharma Body, the "Myriad Ancient Immortal Body," and its grade can at least be ranked in the top thirty.

If he could advance to the Immortal Golden Body, he could probably even rank among the top fifteen.

But in the end, it is only a fragment of the Primordial Dharma Body, and it is far from the complete Primordial Dharma Body.

"I know what I'm doing," Futu Yun with a faint smile, offering no further explanation.

"Go ahead," Futu Xuan, too lazy to say anything more.

Futu Yun was able to assume the position of young clan leader because he had gained the approval of the Endless Light Body;

Even though Futu Yun has given up the Endless Light Body, he can still firmly hold this position.

Moreover, Futu Yun's contributions to the Pagoda Ancient Clan were immense.

Leaving aside the Expedition Group and the matter of Demon-Slaying King,

Just the fact that Futu Yun took over the Ancient Heavenly Palace,

They expanded their territory in the name of "the legitimate lineage of the Tianluo Continent."

The fact that he forced those local separatist forces to retreat one after another was enough to secure his position as the young clan leader.

Originally, the Pagoda Ancient Clan had already entered the Tianluo Continent to expand their territory.

Relying on their strength, they suppressed local forces and forced them into retreat.

The reason why they failed to completely conquer this continent was...

One reason is that most of the Pagoda Ancient Clan's fighting force was deployed to the Expedition Group.

On the other hand, the Pagoda Ancient Clan, as outsiders, were able to claim a share of the spoils based on their strength, and no one dared to stop them.

However, if one were to forcibly seize control of another's territory, it would inevitably provoke a united resistance from all local forces.

Although the Pagoda Ancient Clan was powerful, they could not act with impunity.

Moreover, the local forces of the Tianluo Continent already have external support.

After the Pagoda Ancient Clan settled in the Tianluo Continent

The opposing forces of the Pagoda Ancient Clan began to secretly support these local forces.

And the one pulling the strings behind all this is the Maha Ancient Clan.

At this thought, Futu Xuan's heart stirred:

Futu Yun wanted to cultivate the Great Solar Undying Body.

Could it be that they're after the Myriad Ancient Immortal Body guarded by the Maha Ancient Clan?

In Ancient Era, the Maha Ancient Clan took over the responsibility of managing the "Myriad Ancient Immortal Body" from the Immortal Emperor.

For so many years, the Maha Ancient Clan have always considered themselves the legitimate inheritors of the "Myriad Ancient Immortal Body."

Those who cultivate an "Immortal Golden Body" through other means are all regarded as unorthodox and unorthodox methods, and are constantly suppressed and excluded.

They were afraid that a qualified cultivator might emerge from these unorthodox paths and snatch this inheritance from the Maha Ancient Clan.

Once he understood this, he stopped trying to stop Futu Yun.

The Maha Ancient Clan was the foremost of the Five Great Ancient Clans.

If the Pagoda Ancient Clan wants to take its place, a conflict between the two sides is inevitable.

Moreover, the ancient Pagoda Ancient Clan originally intended for Qing Yanjing to marry Maha Tian.

However, Qing Yanjing ultimately refused the marriage proposal, which prevented the union from taking place and also damaged the reputation of the Maha Ancient Clan.

The conflict between the two sides was actually inevitable long ago.

However, merely vying for the title of the leader of the Five Great Ancient Clans is ultimately too narrow a vision.

It would be more reasonable for the struggle to revolve around achieving Myriad Ancient Immortal Body.

Although the Maha Ancient Clan are merely guardians of Myriad Ancient Immortal Body,

But if Futu Yun truly possesses the Myriad Ancient Immortal Body, would the Maha Ancient Clan willingly relinquish it?

However, for the Pagoda Ancient Clan, the most urgent task is to completely control the Tianluo Continent.

They've been lingering on this continent for so many years; it's time they officially take control of the Tianluo Continent.

Tianluo Continent is a supercontinent, naturally attracting the covetous eyes of many super powers in the Great Thousand World.

However, there were too many wolves eyeing this lucrative prize, so no one dared to take a bite easily.

Even combined, those scattered local forces were no match for the Pagoda Ancient Clan.

However, if the Pagoda Ancient Clan makes too many moves, it may attract interference from hostile forces such as the Maha Ancient Clan.

But now that the Ancient Heavenly Palace has fallen into the hands of Futu Yun, the title of "orthodox lineage of Tianluo" has fallen to the Pagoda Ancient Clan;

With both strength and a legitimate cause, the Pagoda Ancient Clan was no longer seen as foreign plunderers, but as those who rightfully reclaimed their homeland.

This single title alone made the Pagoda Ancient Clan invincible.

In any war, the ultimate deciding factor must be "reason"!

As the saying goes, "A just cause is needed to launch an attack."

Whenever a large-scale war is involved, both sides will try their best to whitewash themselves and shift the blame for starting the war onto the other side.

To put it bluntly, it's like before two people start fighting, you always have to declare that you're in the right first.

They insisted that the other party attacked first, and that they were merely forced to retaliate.

In fact, this system does not determine the outcome of a war.

Wars between major powers are ultimately about plundering resources; there's not much logic to them.

But by seizing this advantage, we can not only dampen the enemy's morale, but also boost our own!

"From this day forward, we will no longer covet Tianluo." Venerable Purple Thunder, his face pale and his voice hoarse.

Behind him were the other Heavenly Sovereign of the Tianluo Continent.

Apart from those who willingly submitted, the rest all chose to leave Tianluo Continent with their families.

Upon hearing this, Futu Yun smiled faintly and said, "If you want to interfere, then come and try. I'll cut off every hand you extend."

Hearing his blunt words, all the Heavenly Sovereign felt annoyed but dared not utter a word in rebuttal.

Losers have no right to bargain or care about saving face.

They only thought about waging a protracted war against the Pagoda Ancient Clan.

Completely unexpectedly, Futu Yun would directly seize the inheritance of the Ancient Heavenly Palace from the bottom of the matter.

Their defeat was already predetermined.

Seeing that Venerable Purple Thunder and the others silently accepted the result, Futu Yun nodded in satisfaction.

"In that case, you may leave."

"Apart from your own forces relocating, all native forces within the territory of the Tianluo Continent are strictly prohibited from relocating."

The expressions of Venerable Purple Thunder and the others turned ugly again.

Futu Yun not only wants to seize Tianluo Continent, but also wants to take over all the forces they originally commanded.

These Heavenly Sovereign not only possesses his own core forces, but also controls a large number of subordinate forces.

Unlike the grim expressions of Venerable Purple Thunder and others,

Surprisingly, the local forces that were declared to be under the control of the Pagoda Ancient Clan did not voice much opposition.

There was even a hint of joy in it.

After all, regardless of which side they belong to, they still have to pay tribute;

Compared to the local strongmen of the Tianluo Continent, joining the Pagoda Ancient Clan clearly offers greater potential for development.

If we can join them now, our future prospects might be even brighter than they are now.

It's good to have a big tree to lean on for shade, especially since the Pagoda Ancient Clan also controlled the Ancient Heavenly Palace.

Just as a wise bird chooses its tree to perch on, birds naturally hope to find a stronger patron.
