At first, when these cultivators tried to make their calculations, the secrets of heaven were not revealed, and they were completely baffled.
Suddenly, a young-looking cultivator's eyes lit up. He was a Mystic Immortal- level cultivator, skilled in the art of divination, and he thought he had found a clue.
He quickly peered at the image the celestial oracle pointed to.
A figure appeared in the mist, its features blurred, but its location was...
Is this the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace?
"Not good!"
The young-looking cultivator was startled, realizing that something was amiss.
at the same time.
Spirit Void Heavenly Palace, the Heavenly Mystery Lineage.
In a magnificent, golden temple, an elderly man with white hair and a youthful face was preaching on a high platform.
Every word is precious, elucidating the secrets of the universe.
He was the direct disciple of the head of the Heavenly Mystery Lineage Immortal Lord Zhixuan, a great cultivator in the Late Golden Immortal.
At this moment, many disciples of the Heavenly Mystery Lineage were still quietly listening to the Immortal Lord's sermon, and benefited greatly from it.
Suddenly, the Immortal Lord Zhixuan, who was giving a sermon, frowned and stopped.
The disciples below the stage were bewildered, and in the blink of an eye, they realized that their teacher had disappeared.
" The Heavenly Mystery Diagram is reacting; this is the task Master previously assigned to me... Who dares to deduce the fate of my Heavenly Palace Dao Child?"
As Heavenly Mystery Lineage, Immortal Lord Zhixuan did not know that the Dao Child was Han Xuanji, but he did know that the Heavenly Palace had already appointed this generation's Dao Child, but had concealed his identity.
To receive such treatment, Dao Child's talent must far exceed his imagination, so powerful that the sect needs to hide it.
Even he was unaware of this existence, yet now, outside cultivators were actually attempting to deduce the Dao Child of his Heavenly Palace.
It should be understood that the Dao Child is connected to the destiny of the Heavenly Palace; to deduce the Dao Child's intentions is utterly despicable.
"My master has probably been alerted; I must handle this matter carefully."
Immortal Lord Zhixuan immediately realized the seriousness of the problem and dared not slacken his efforts.
He quickly identified the person behind it all.
"Puff!"
The young-looking cultivator suddenly spat out a mouthful of Essence Blood, his face instantly turning ashen, his eyes filled with terror, as if he had witnessed some kind of great horror.
"Senior, spare my life! I was only acting under orders from the Spirit Jade Sect; I had no idea it would involve your sect."
Seeing the other party beg for mercy at lightning speed, Immortal Lord Zhixuan snorted coldly. After calculating with his fingers, he realized that this was another cultivator who had been bewitched by the aura of calamity and would have a connection with the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace in the future. After thinking for a moment, he let the other party go.
a long time.
"I was unaware that I was entangled in this calamity, what a waste of my cultivation."
The young-looking cultivator sighed.
At the same time, he cursed the people of the Spirit Jade Sect in his heart, saying they were truly despicable and had caused a great deal of harm.
Almost simultaneously, the natal compass of the Spirit Jade Sect, which was responsible for receiving Elder Zhao's commission, cracked into several pieces without warning with a "crack," and the elder himself suffered severe damage to his soul, collapsing to the ground in exhaustion.
Similar situations occurred in different places within a short period of time.
All those who attempted to delve deeper into the secrets of this matter suffered varying degrees of backlash, but all were extremely severe.
soon.
Elder Zhao received the feedback and his face lit up with joy, thinking that there was a result.
But that wasn't the answer he wanted.
Those cultivators who had previously been so confident now sent out divine messages filled with fear and anger.
"You old scoundrel, why resort to such methods to harm me? I will never forgive you again!"
"Damn it, don't let me find out who you are!"
These people were all capable independent Rogue Cultivator whom Elder Zhao had anonymously recruited.
"Brother Zhao, heed my advice, stop immediately, and apologize to your sect. Perhaps there's still a glimmer of hope!"
"By the way, you were the one who approached me first. I knew nothing about you beforehand. We're old friends. I have elderly parents and young children to support, so please don't get me into trouble!"
These messages initially puzzled Elder Zhao, until a message came from a respected elder within the sect who was familiar with him.
He then realized that he might have really committed a terrible crime.
The other party wasn't hiding any secrets; they were simply habitually concealing their whereabouts. With their capabilities, they simply couldn't find out.
Its background is probably far more powerful than he imagined.
Just as he was terrified and preparing to immediately halt all investigations and report to the sect leader...
suddenly.
Above the Spirit Jade Sect, the once clear sky suddenly darkened without warning.
An indescribable, grand aura enveloped the entire Spirit Jade Sect's mountain gate. All disciples and elders, regardless of their cultivation level, felt their hearts tremble at this moment, and involuntarily wanted to kneel down.
Immediately afterwards, an icy, emotionless voice resounded deep within the souls of every cultivator in the Spirit Jade Sect:
" The Spirit Jade Sect has condoned its members' abuse of power and even attempted to spy on the secrets of the Heavenly Palace; their crimes are unforgivable!"
Before the words were finished, several figures exuding magnificent divine power and wearing the Daoist robes of the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace appeared outside the protective formation of the Spirit Jade Sect, like divine soldiers descending from the heavens.
The leader was none other than a Golden Immortal with an aura as deep and boundless as the ocean.
His gaze swept over the Spirit Jade Sect as if looking at a group of ants.
"Effective immediately, seventy percent of the Spirit Jade Sect's sect fortune will be stripped away, and half of its accumulated resources over ten thousand years will be confiscated!"
The Sect Master of the Spirit Jade Sect has failed in his duties; he will be punished at the Heavenly Palace!
After the verdict was announced, the Golden Immortal expert didn't give the Spirit Jade Sect any chance to defend themselves, and simply raised his hand and pointed.
Boom!
The protective array of the Spirit Jade Sect, which had been passed down for tens of thousands of years, shattered as easily as if it were made of paper.
The pillar of fortune of the entire sect visibly dimmed and shrank considerably.
In places like treasure troves and the core of Spirit Vein, massive amounts of resources were forcibly extracted by an invisible force, turning into torrents that disappeared into the void.
The sect leader of the Spirit Jade Sect stood there, his face ashen, not daring to resist in the slightest. He could only watch helplessly as the sect's foundation was stripped away, his heart filled with fear and anger.
He dared not hate Spirit Void Heavenly Palace; he hated which foolish thing had brought about this catastrophic disaster.
In fact, the founder of the Spirit Jade Sect was once a disciple of the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace. Therefore, Spirit Jade Sect and Spirit Void Heavenly Palace had some ties, and Spirit Void Heavenly Palace recognized Spirit Jade Sect as an affiliated sect, which is why it was able to grow rapidly.
The sect leader of the Spirit Jade Sect also has an elder from the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace as his backer, but his backer was probably completely unaware of this matter and did not inform him in advance.
He sent a message, but received no reply.
I don't know if they didn't see it or if they simply didn't want to respond.
He didn't even know who he had offended.
The only thing that's certain is that the person we offended was someone of immense power and influence.
Even long after the Heavenly Palace envoy had left, the Spirit Jade Sect remained deathly silent, with all the disciples immersed in immense fear.
"Damn it, who did this?"
The sect leader of the Spirit Jade Sect was ashen-faced, determined to find the culprit.
This incident dealt a devastating blow to the Spirit Jade Sect, causing it to lose face and suffer a severe blow to its vitality.
Soon, someone reported Elder Zhao's matter.
Having witnessed everything, Elder Zhao was utterly distraught, realizing that there was no escaping his fate.
The Spirit Jade Sect will pursue him to the ends of the earth.
He contemplated suicide, but couldn't bring himself to do it.
When the sect's law enforcement cultivators arrived, Elder Zhao's cultivation was sealed by a force, and he was taken away like a dead dog.
At the same time, some people in the Spirit Jade Sect soon discovered that a faction that had originally been quite powerful in the Spirit Jade Sect had been completely eradicated and disappeared without a trace.
Deeper rumors were circulating: it seemed that Elder Zhao had offended a powerful figure from the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace.
But no one dared to pry into its secrets, for fear of knowing too much.
In an instant, all potential inquisitive gazes quickly withdrew, and related records were completely sealed away. All of this became an unspoken taboo topic within the Spirit Jade Sect.
