Enemies on All Sides, Ambushes in Every Direction
The Flowing Light Immortal City, the Crimson Flood Dragon Manor.
This mansion, which occupies the most central location of the immortal city and is usually majestic and imposing, now seems to have become an active volcano about to erupt.
"Snap--!"
Deep within the mansion, in a secret chamber housing the soul lamp of the family's core bloodline, came a crisp yet despairing shattering sound.
The elder guarding the soul lamp trembled and stiffly turned his head.
When he saw the soul lamp representing the young master "Jiao Yan" completely extinguished and turned to dust, his face instantly lost all color, and he let out a shrill scream:
"Young Master... has fallen!!!"
"BOOM--!!!"
Almost simultaneously.
Deep within the forbidden area of the Crimson Flood Dragon Manor, an extremely terrifying pillar of blood energy shot into the sky, instantly shattering the defensive array above the mansion and piercing straight into the clouds!
The sky over the entire Flowing Light Immortal City was instantly dyed blood red!
A middle-aged man, shirtless and covered in ferocious crimson scales, shattered the Xukong with a single step and appeared above the immortal city.
Crimson Flood Dragon Immortal Emperor!
Peak of the Immortal Emperor- stage Immortal Emperor!
His eyes were bloodshot, and his body was surrounded by tangible flames of rage powerful enough to incinerate the Xukong. His voice boomed like Tianlei.
Who is it?!
"Who killed my son?!"
"Investigate! Seal off the entire city! No one is allowed to leave! Even if you have to dig three feet into the ground, find that murderer for me!"
"I, the Emperor, will have him skinned alive, burned alive, and his body burned for ten thousand years!!!"
With a command from the Crimson Flood Dragon Immortal Emperor, the protective array of Flowing Light Immortal City was instantly activated to its maximum! Countless elites from the Crimson Flood Dragon Manor poured out, plunging the entire immortal city into a tense and panicked atmosphere.
Deep within the Xukong, in the heart of the Taiyi Immortal Dynasty.
A purple-gold warship, Entanglement with billions of bolts of lightning, is preparing to tear through the boundary wall and head to the Lower Realm.
It was none other than Lei Mie, the head of the Enforcement Divine Firmament Sect, who was ordered to hunt down Dongfang Yueming!
Just before the warship was about to plunge into the Xukong turbulence, a rapid message arrived at incredible speed and hovered in front of Lei Mie.
Lei Mie frowned slightly and reached out to grab the spiritual light.
"Hmm? Information about the murderer?"
However, after he read the information, the expression on his originally cold and ruthless face instantly became extremely interesting.
First came shock, then disbelief, and finally... it transformed into boundless ecstasy and savagery!
"Good! Good! Good!"
"This is truly a stroke of luck!"
Lei Mie abruptly crushed the communication light and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"I originally thought I'd have to search for a needle in a haystack Lower Realm that barren land of the lower realms, but I never expected... this brat would be so audacious as to deliver himself right to my doorstep?!"
The message not only contained rumors spread by the remnant soul of the "Immortal Venerable Myriad Phenomena"—that Dongfang Yueming possessed the Immortal Venerable's inheritance, seventh-tier immortal artifacts, and sixth-tier immortal gold—but also...
It also included the latest intelligence from the Flowing Light Immortal City —a young man in blue robes, suspected to be Dongfang Yueming, appeared in the Flowing Light Immortal City and killed the young master of the Crimson Flood Dragon Manor in the street!
The characteristics, time, and location match perfectly!
"How dare a mere ascendant from the Lower Realm realm run rampant in my Taiyi Immortal Dynasty?"
Greed and killing intent flashed in Lei Mie's eyes.
"You killed a true disciple of the Divine Firmament Sect and possess a great treasure..."
"This is practically a mobile paradise!"
He made a decisive decision, waving his hand:
"Turn around!"
"We're not going to the Lower Realm! We're heading straight to the Flowing Light Immortal City!"
"Furthermore, in the name of my Divine Firmament Sect, I hereby issue a [Thunderbolt Arrest Notice] to the entire Taiyi Immortal Dynasty!"
"Anyone who can provide information on this child's whereabouts will be rewarded with a fourth-tier Immortal Immortal Artifact! Anyone who can trap this child will be rewarded with a cultivation technique from an Immortal Ancestor!"
"I will ensure he... has no chance of escape!"
Meanwhile, at the border of the Taiyi Immortal Dynasty.
"Buzz--!"
The Xukong trembled violently, and a spatial rift stretching tens of thousands of miles was forcibly torn open!
Immediately afterwards, dozens of figures with terrifying auras stepped out from among them.
The leading elder, dressed in a star-patterned robe, was surrounded by dazzling starlight. With each step he took, strange phenomena of stars appearing and disappearing beneath his feet emerged.
Immortal Ancestor Realm - Ancestor Xingyun!
Behind him followed more than a dozen Immortal Emperor from the Middle Dynasty, and hundreds of Immortal King!
These are the same pursuers who failed to find the Myriad Phenomena Immortal Manor ruins!
"This... is this the Taiyi Immortal Dynasty?"
Ancestor Xingyun's turbid gaze swept across this world, a hint of apprehension flashing in his eyes.
The Taiyi Immortal Dynasty is a superior immortal dynasty, full of hidden talents and powerful figures; even he cannot be too presumptuous.
"Ancestor, according to the Law of Tracking, that Dongfang Yueming... is in this direction!"
The Azure-Eyed Immortal Emperor pointed in the direction of Flowing Light Immortal City, his tone certain.
"Very good."
Ancestor Xingyun nodded, his voice hoarse.
"Although this is the territory of the Taiyi Immortal Dynasty, it contains the inheritance of Immortal Venerable! It's a seventh-tier Immortal artifact! It might even be... Immortal Emperor's scripture!"
"Such an opportunity, even if it offends the Divine Firmament Sect, I will fight for it!"
"Pass down the order: conceal your presence and disperse to infiltrate."
"Once the target is located..."
A cold glint One Flash in his eyes.
"... Act immediately! A swift and decisive victory is crucial! We cannot allow the Taiyi Immortal Dynasty's local forces to react!"
"Yes!"
This day.
The situation on the border of the Taiyi Immortal Dynasty has suddenly changed.
Crimson Flood Dragon Manor seals off the city and orders a manhunt!
The Divine Firmament Sect is pressing in with overwhelming force!
Even more powerful figures from Outer Domain' Immortal Ancestor are secretly lurking!
Three forces, each with their own agenda, yet sharing the same goal, are like an impenetrable, all-encompassing net, closing in on Flowing Light Immortal City...
Tighten slowly!
