Chapter 715: Chapter 404 Message

In the presence of two Nascent Soul Ancestors, no cultivator would concern themselves with the murder of Yang Bao, the Golden Core cultivator, even though Yang Bao was a Golden Core Elder of the Thousand Illusion Sect.

Outside the Spiritual Crane Sect, Ancestor Lu stood side by side with Lang Xiong in the void.

The great formation of the Spiritual Crane Sect was active, but such a formation couldn’t block the senses of Ancestor Lu and Lang Xiong. They discovered that the strongest within the Spiritual Crane Sect were merely Late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators, with not a single Golden Core cultivator in existence.

Although the Spiritual Crane Sect was a medium-sized sect, this should not have been the case; it only demonstrated that the Golden Core cultivators they lost before were all the Golden Core cultivators they had.

Ancestor Lu had yet to look closer when Lang Xiong struck with his palm.

This palm wielded a portion of the Dharma Manifestation’s might, a gigantic palm descending from the sky towards the mountain gate of the Spiritual Crane Sect.

The formation was instantly shattered; the dozen or so peaks where the mountain gate stood were enveloped by the gigantic palm, and before it even fully descended, all the cultivators at the mountain gate were shaken to death by the terrifying force.

Not to mention them, even Golden Core cultivators could not have survived under such might.

With a ’boom,’ the dozen or so peaks were all pulverized, and the grotto-homes within the mountain gate, no matter how they had been reinforced and defended, were likewise destroyed.

The gigantic palm did not stop; it continued to press down, flattening the mountains.

Lang Xiong made his move before Ancestor Lu could in order to find traces of the Fourth Grade Corpse Lotus or the remnants of the Sky-splitting Beast.

Of course, he understood that, looking at the state of the Spiritual Crane Sect, it was unlikely that a cultivator would have brought such precious items back, but as long as there was the slightest hope, he would not give up.

The Dharma Manifestation’s gigantic palm, whilst appearing destructive, carried his senses. If there was even the slightest trace of the Fourth Grade Corpse Lotus or the Sky-splitting Beast’s remnants, the palm would halt its destruction and locate the position of the treasures.

The Dharma Manifestation’s gigantic palm did not stop, indicating that Lang Xiong hadn’t found anything.

Unwilling to give up, Lang Xiong continued to exert force with his Dharma Manifestation’s gigantic palm. By this time, the mountain gate of the Spiritual Crane Sect had been pressed into the ground, forming a vast palm-shaped crater.

Ancestor Lu frowned slightly, but he did not say anything.

The destruction wrought by Lang Xiong was excessively thorough; this land, suitable for cultivators to practice in due to its spiritual nature, had not only its mountains destroyed under Lang Xiong’s palm but also its spiritual veins and vitality extinguished.

Eventually, Lang Xiong ceased the motion of his gigantic palm. After withdrawing it, the Spiritual Crane Sect no longer existed, and a daunting aura lingered over the area.

For thousands of miles around, and perhaps even longer, there wouldn’t be life here again.

Even the most tenacious wild grass would not be able to survive in an area attacked by a Nascent Soul Ancestor.

"Old Lu, let’s go to the Endless Sect!" Lang Xiong was incredibly proactive, immediately suggesting to Ancestor Lu after destroying the Spiritual Crane Sect.

"Let’s go," agreed Ancestor Lu with a nod.

The Endless Sect met with the same fate as the Spiritual Crane Sect. The hand of the Nascent Soul Ancestors had destroyed two medium-sized sects, an event which stirred up considerable turmoil on the Beishu Continent.

It had been many years since such an event occurred, with no forces daring to challenge the major sects for a millennium.

The Spiritual Crane Sect and the Endless Sect had once again demonstrated to the Cultivation World the consequences of offending a major sect.

It was simply the misfortune of the Spiritual Crane Sect and the Endless Sect; under normal circumstances, even if a large number of Golden Core cultivators were to challenge the Senluo Sect, the Golden Core Elders of the Senluo Sect would handle the matter themselves.

The Senluo Sect would definitely not awaken a Nascent Soul Ancestor from seclusion for such an affair, even though it would require negotiations with the three major Righteous Path sects due to the location of the mountain gates of the Spiritual Crane Sect and the Endless Sect being within the Righteous Path’s influence. However, it hadn’t escalated to the point where the involvement of a Nascent Soul Ancestor was absolutely necessary.

The misfortune of the Spiritual Crane Sect and the Endless Sect was that at the time of their mishaps, due to the invasion of external forces, Ancestor Lu was guarding the mountain pass.

Furthermore, with Lang Xiong arriving on the scene, it prompted the action of a Nascent Soul Ancestor personally stepping out to annihilate the Spiritual Crane Sect and the Endless Sect.

The forces that seemed to have forgotten the majesty of the major sects were once again reminded of their terror, and they all backtracked on their various scheming thoughts.

This was also an outcome the six major sects were happy to see - the six major sects were not to be challenged, which was a shared interest.

All these matters were of little concern to Li Shiming and Li Yuanba, who had both entered into arduous cultivation.

Another five years passed, and throughout that time, nothing significant happened in the Cultivation World.

The only thing that affected Li Yuanba was that the Golden Core Elders of the sect were desperately vying for the tasks of guarding Jieshan Mountain Pass and Jieshan City.

This caused Jiang Pu extreme distress; only after using many favors and connections were they able to retain the positions for the guarding Golden Cores.

As for Li Yuanba’s side, with Ancestor Lu present, unless the high echelon of the sect went mad, they would not touch Li Yuanba’s position.

The high echelon of the sect was extremely content with Li Yuanba remaining in Jieshan City.

Li Yuanba had no interest in power; otherwise, with the way Ancestor Lu valued him, he could return to the sect and enter the high hierarchy at any moment, seizing control of the sect’s power.

All the key positions of authority within the sect were occupied, and if he wished to intervene, it would mean displacing one of them.

Therefore, the high echelon would certainly not disrupt Li Yuanba’s position; in fact, they were even pleading for him to stay in Jieshan City.

During those five years, the Righteous Gate saw the arrival of a new Golden Core Elder, who was not from the three major Righteous Path sects this time.

This Golden Core Elder was also a man of understanding, quickly making his subordination clear to Ying Hou upon arriving.

The once-severed connection channel with the Alchemy Master Li Shiming was restored, satisfying the stationed Golden Core Elders as they enjoyed their special privileges.
