The Fleet Will Wipe Out Your Entire Sect

In the distance, a dark fleet slowly approached on the horizon.

Thirty-six warships stood in neat formation, blotting out the sky, their hulls gleaming with spiritual light, exuding an overwhelming sense of oppression.

At the front of the fleet, Li Yunjing, along with a group of elders and elite disciples, stood suspended in the air.

"That's the Luozhen Sect's fleet? My god, that's incredibly imposing!"

"Thirty-six warships, how many resources would that take to build?"

"The Daozhen Sect is probably really doomed this time."

"..."

Amidst the discussions, the fleet stopped ten miles away from Xuandu Mountain.

Li Yunjing stood at the bow of the flagship, his gaze calmly fixed on Xuandu Mountain ahead.

The Nine Purities Profound Heaven Grand Formation truly lived up to its name; its spiritual light was abundant, its array patterns were intricate, and its terrifying power could be felt even from ten miles away.

No wonder the Daozhen Sect has stood firm in Flying Immortal Prefecture for thousands of years; this mountain-protecting formation has played a crucial role.

"Sect Leader, the fleet is in position and ready to fire at any time," the fleet commander reported.

"No rush," Li Yunjing waved his hand. "Let's see their reaction first."

He wanted to see how long the Daozhen Sect could endure.

Sure enough, not long after, an old figure slowly rose up on the main peak of Xuandu Mountain.

He was an old man dressed in a gray robe, with white hair hanging down to his shoulders, a withered face, and a thin figure, as if a gust of wind could blow him over.

Yet his aura was unfathomable; with each breath, he stirred the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

It was none other than the Tribulation Transcendence Ancestor of the Daozhen Sect, Ancestor Xuanyuan.

He was in seclusion when he learned of Yin Zhongqiu's death and the Luozhen Sect's army, forcing him to emerge from seclusion ahead of schedule.

"Young friend Li Yunjing."

The Ancestor Xuanyuan hovered behind the great formation, his voice ancient and calm, echoing throughout the surrounding area.

"I am Xuanyuan, the Supreme Elder of the Daozhen Sect."

"This time, Yin Zhongqiu was young and impetuous, and acted rashly in Luozhen Province to provoke us, offending you, young friend. His death was entirely his own fault."

"The entire Daozhen Sect has recognized its mistakes, and I am willing to apologize to you on behalf of the sect."

As he finished speaking, he bowed slightly in Li Yunjing's direction.

This caused an uproar throughout the hall.

"What? Ancestor Xuanyuan apologized?"

"The Tribulation Transcendence Ancestor has bowed his head? Is he really that spineless?"

"That can't be right. Ancestor Xuanyuan is known for being fiercely protective of his own, how could he apologize so easily?"

"..."

The onlookers were abuzz with discussion, all finding it unbelievable.

Behind Li Yunjing, Mo Xuan also frowned. "Sect Leader, something's wrong with this old man. How can a Tribulation Dao Lord be so humble?"

A cold smile curled at the corner of Li Yunjing's lips.

He knew something was wrong, of course.

Those old monsters in the Tribulation Transcendence Stage, having lived for nearly ten thousand years, are all cunning and treacherous. If they were truly willing to submit, why weren't they here long ago?

"Oh? An apology?" Li Yunjing spoke calmly, his voice carrying throughout the room, "How does the Ancestor intend to apologize?"

Ancestor Xuanyuan saw Li Yunjing speak up, he was overjoyed and quickly said, "Young friend, please speak freely. Spirit Stone, spirit medicine, Law Treasure, mineral veins—as long as Daozhen Sect has them, please ask."

"I can also decide to cede one-third of the Spirit Field and mineral veins of Xuandu Mountain to the Luozhen Sect as compensation."

"We only ask that you, young friend, show leniency and withdraw your troops. Daozhen Sect guarantees that we will never be enemies with the Luozhen Sect again, and that for generations to come, we will respect Luozhen Sect as the supreme authority."

The terms offered were undeniably generous.

To cede one-third of its resources and submit to the lords is already a huge concession for a major sect with a history of thousands of years.

The onlookers gasped in astonishment.

"Has Ancestor Xuanyuan admitted defeat?"

"Giving up a third of our resources is too high a price to pay."

"If it were me, I might have agreed. After all, the Tribulation Transcendence Ancestor bowing his head is already a great concession."

"..."

The disciples of the Luozhen Sect were also somewhat tempted.

Subduing the enemy without a fight and gaining so many benefits seems pretty good.

But Li Yunjing suddenly laughed.

The laughter wasn't loud, but it carried an undisguised mockery.

"Ancestor Xuanyuan, your plan is far too ambitious!"

Ancestor Xuanyuan's expression changed slightly. "What do you mean by that, young friend?"

"What do you mean?" Li Yunjing's eyes turned cold. "You know perfectly well."

"You're saying all these nice things now, offering territories and making amends, but you're just trying to buy time and prolong your life. While you keep me calm, send a message to the Mystic Yellow Immortal Realm, requesting Immortal Lord Qingxu to send reinforcements. Once the Immortal Lord's envoy arrives, you can turn your back on us and wipe out my Luozhen Sect in one fell swoop."

"Is what I said both right and wrong?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ancestor Xuanyuan's face darkened instantly.

He didn't expect that Li Yunjing would see through his thoughts at a glance.

That's right, that's exactly what he's planning.

Immortal Lord Qingxu is the greatest backer of the Daozhen Sect.

As long as a message is sent to the upper realm explaining the situation, the Immortal Lord will certainly not stand idly by.

Even if separated by the boundary, sending down an avatar or a few celestial treasures would be enough to destroy the Luozhen Sect.

His apologies and concessions are just a way to buy time.

We'll hold out until the Immortal Lord's reinforcements arrive.

But Li Yunjing didn't give him that chance at all.

"Young friend Li, you mustn't speak carelessly." Ancestor Xuanyuan feigned composure. "I sincerely apologize, young friend, why judge a gentleman by your own petty standards?"

"A gentleman?" Li Yunjing scoffed. "Does the Daozhen Sect even deserve to talk about gentlemen?"

"When you secretly plotted against me and stabbed me Luozhen Sect the back, why didn't you call yourself a gentleman then?"

"When you just brought your men to our door, trying to seize the Immortal Vein and wipe out my entire family, why didn't you call yourself a gentleman then?"

"Now that you can't win, you're trying to play the coward and save your life? Too late."

Li Yunjing's tone was resolute. "Today, the Daozhen Sect will be destroyed."

"You!" Ancestor Xuanyuan was both shocked and furious.

He hadn't expected Li Yunjing to be so stubborn and unyielding.

"Li Yunjing, don't go too far!" Ancestor Xuanyuan's face turned completely cold, and the pressure of his Tribulation Transcendence Stage was slowly released. "Do you really think I'm afraid of you?"

"If things really come to a fight to the death, even your Luozhen Sect won't come out unscathed!"

"A fight to the death?" Li Yunjing shook his head. "You're not qualified."

"Fleet, listen to my command."

"Exist!"

"Target: Xuandu Mountain's protective formation. First volley, warm-up."

"Yes, sir!"

Thirty-six warships turned simultaneously, and the spirit cannons on their bows lit up with dazzling light.

Buzz, buzz, buzz.

The buzzing sounds of charging rose and fell, creating a continuous chorus.

Ancestor Xuanyuan's expression changed drastically.

He could feel the power of those spirit cannons; thirty-six of them firing simultaneously would be enough to overwhelm even the Nine Purities Profound Heaven Grand Formation after only a few rounds.

"Li Yunjing! Do you really intend to wipe us out completely?!" Ancestor Xuanyuan shouted sternly.

Li Yunjing said expressionlessly, "It's always been your Daozhen Sect that's ruthless and merciless."

"Today, I am merely giving them a taste of their own medicine."

"Fire."

Boom!!!

Thirty-six thick beams of spiritual light shot out simultaneously, like thirty-six rainbows, piercing the sky and crashing fiercely onto the Nine Purities Profound Heaven Grand Formation.

A deafening roar resounded.

The entire Xuandu Mountain shook violently, the nine-colored spiritual light array shield flickered wildly, ripples spread across its surface, and countless array patterns flickered uncertainly.

The formation was under immense pressure from the first volley of fire.

"What a powerful spirit cannon!" the onlookers exclaimed.

"If this continues for a few more rounds, the great formation might really break!"

Ancestor Xuanyuan was both shocked and furious.

He knew he couldn't wait any longer.

"Since you're so determined to die, don't blame me for being impolite!"
