Heaven's Will Cannot Be Defied

"Smoke."

The sound faded.

Immediately, a lottery page appeared, displaying all sorts of items.

It mainly consists of armor, along with some other items.

After a few moments, the rotation slowly came to a stop.

"Congratulations, host! You have obtained the following Saint Rank Peak Grade item: Guardian Array Plate *1."

At the same time, the array plate appeared in front of Lu Changzhi.

Lu Changzhi glanced at him.

Hmm, it looks like a formation plate.

A defensive array plate, especially Saint Rank Peak Grade, is quite valuable.

Once activated, it can withstand attacks from Saint, making it a decent trump card within a defensive array.

Lu Changzhi put it away and regained his composure.

There probably isn't much else to see.

It's getting late.

Regardless of whether the reward is settled or not, I'll go to sleep first.

Cloud Heaven Holy Land.

The oppressive atmosphere made people feel hopeless.

Looking around, there wasn't a single pleasant expression on the faces of the vast group of elders and disciples.

Huang Yunya looked at the tragic state of the Holy Land, his face extremely grim.

I knew from the astrological readings of Elder Xuan that something bad was about to happen.

Therefore, the Holy Land has made thorough preparations.

However, even so, the worst thing still happened.

And it's far worse than expected.

Lin Tianlei is only about to become Saint, while Ge Duantian is a genuine veteran Saint Realm expert.

Even if their lifespan is limited, their realm and strength are still there.

Originally, it might have remained dormant for several more years, or it might have had a glorious final chapter.

But now...

Although the number of disciples who were injured or killed was huge, that did not matter.

The truly valuable disciples are all in the core area and are unharmed.

These things outside, though valuable, how can they compare to those of the Ancestor and the Elders?

The unexpected death of Ancestor Ge is a devastating blow to the sacred land.

Not far away, Elder Xuan watched all of this Jingjing.

He understood astrology and knew just how ominous those observations he had made were.

Now, all that can be said is a sigh.

"Sometimes, crisis is unavoidable."

Elder Xuan shook his head gently, feeling more powerless than anything else.

He saw it and informed the holy site.

The original intention was to take some measures to reduce losses.

But looking at it now, has the objective been achieved?

But quite the opposite is true.

The most powerful elders went to the secret realm, both to observe and learn, and to guard against any ill intentions from others.

As a result, the defensive formation inexplicably malfunctioned, and it was unable to spare any power to stop the trouble caused by the Star Moon Holy Land.

The intention to summon the elders and disciples back to the holy land was truly good.

However, the consequence was that more disciples and elders died under the waves of attacks.

As for the Lightning Tribulation striking the sacred land, and the calamity that Ancestor Ge suffered, such a truly great disaster would be unthinkable if one had not witnessed it with their own eyes.

At this moment, it seems that everyone's efforts have not only failed to achieve their goal, but have actually backfired.

Only through personal experience can one truly realize this.

What does it mean that the will of Heaven cannot be defied?

Another place.

Unlike most people.

Huang Qianzhou's expression also contained a hint of guilt.

"Fortunately, his soul is still alive. Finding some treasures to nourish his soul might help the old man remain in the world a little longer."

Now, this is the only thing that brings him comfort.

The passing of our ancestor is certainly a great loss.

However, if a legacy can be preserved so that there are successors, this loss can be mitigated.

It just so happens that there is an artifact that I obtained from the Azure Cloud Sect in the Eastern Region, which can accommodate a soul.

With these thoughts in mind, Huang Qianzhou took out the treasure that had previously stored Ge Duantian's soul.

Thoughts probe in.

The next moment, his body suddenly stiffened.

The soul of the ancestor...

That's it!

In an instant, Ge Duantian's voice and appearance surged into my mind like a tidal wave.

Those questioning words, those wide-eyed stares.

It lingers.

Inside the house.

Luo Zhen stood by the window, looking at the scene of the holy land outside, his face full of shock.

Such a powerful holy land seemed insignificant under such a Lightning Tribulation.

Looking at the devastated scene in the distance, and the night sky gradually returning to calm.

Suddenly, Luo Zhen felt a jolt, as if the world he saw was changing.

Without realizing it, one enters a unique state.

Some are happy, some are sad.

It wasn't just Cloud Heaven Holy Land that felt the night was long.

On the Eastern Region.

In the darkness of night.

Figures hurried along under the cover of night.

Occasionally, a person practicing spiritual cultivation will experience a spiritual response, which they can observe from afar.

Their faces mostly showed a somewhat uncertain and doubtful expression.

Why have so many powerful bald men with formidable auras suddenly appeared in mid-air?

This group of people did not come from elsewhere.

It was none other than the Southern Region.

That's right, it's the Southern Region, with Dongfang Jun and a group of powerful members of the Dongfang Clan.

As for why he imitated the appearance of Buddhist Order from the Western Region...

The story itself isn't long, but it's mostly about feeling frustrated.

Because this was something I did entirely against my will.

Originally, according to their plan, after Descent the Azure Cloud Sect, they would directly take action, destroy the Azure Cloud Sect's great formation, and plunder all of the Azure Cloud Sect's resources.

At this point, no unexpected events were possible.

After all, let alone the fact that the Cloud Heaven Holy Land has already summoned the powerful figures of the Holy Land.

Even without a recall, their squad is strong enough to handle the situation.

However, when it's actually time to begin...

As expected, things suddenly took an unexpected turn.

The powerful figures of the Star Moon Holy Land actually share the same plans as his Dongfang Clan.

Taking advantage of the chaos, they seized control of the Azure Cloud Sect.

Upon learning of this turn of events, Dongfang Jun considered the matter for a while.

The Star Moon Holy Land is no less powerful than the Cloud Heaven Holy Land.

However, the Star Moon Holy Land is much farther away from the Dongfang Clan.

Besides, with so many of them, having already come all this way, how could they just slink away like that?

Unable to resort to force, they had no choice but to try negotiation.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they opened their mouths, the people from the Star Moon Holy Land declared that from this day forward, the Azure Cloud Sect would belong to the Star Moon Holy Land.

He finished speaking and immediately took action.

Since they've already taken action, there's not much more to say.

The fierce battle immediately began.

Unfortunately, the Star Moon Holy Land was stronger on both sides.

Moreover, in terms of getting things done, the Star Moon Holy Land was even better.

No one died; all they brought back were wounded.

As for what remains, it is everything except the physical body.

They couldn't understand how these people from the Star Moon Holy Land could act so ruthlessly and cruelly.

If we win, taking the storage ring is no big deal.

Stealing armor and soft armor, that's nothing special.

But isn't it a bit excessive to leave even their clothes behind?

Of course, it may be excessive, but it's still within the realm of normalcy.

They shaved them all completely bald, leaving not a single hair or eyebrow...

It's difficult to find a suitable expression to describe the experience.

It can probably only be...

Are you sick?!

This is why they were all bald and traveling at night.

And this is all thanks to the clothes looted along the way.

Otherwise, it wouldn't just be the head that's bare.

"Damn Star Moon Holy Land!"

Dongfang Jun head was completely bald, gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with hatred and murderous intent.

Recalling what the other party said, "If you bald monks dare to come again, I will beat you every time I see you," only made him more indignant and resentful.

The Dongfang Clan will remember this grudge!
