Chapter 2959: Chapter 2933: Retreat! (Third Update)

But this had no effect!

Ye Lingtian, who had ascended directly to the ninth level of the Chaos Realm after receiving the Heavenly Dao’s baptism, was at his peak of power. The Abyss Punishment Spear, laden with force, collided with Elder Diao with a thunderous noise, causing endless waves of energy to surge.

Runes blossomed, lighting up half of Jueye Land, sparkling to the extreme, and then...

"Bang!"

The artifact armor suddenly exploded, shattering into countless fragments that flew apart, each piece trailing a streak of light like meteors falling from the sky, as they plummeted into the dark mist below.

It wasn’t that this artifact armor wasn’t strong enough, rather in this special place, it couldn’t gain enough power support; how could it possibly withstand the spear’s edge of the Abyss Punishment Spear?

"Ah!!"

The elder of the Heavenly Dao Palace roared, using all his might to resist Ye Lingtian’s spear. The shattering of his artifact armor was beyond his expectations, yet he did not concede.

Diao Mingde spat out, and a small cauldron flew out, turning into a giant cauldron several dozen feet tall with three legs and two ears of bronze color, blocking Ye Lingtian’s spear.

"Clang!"

The spear tip struck the giant cauldron, sparking intensely, as waves of Dao traces spread outwards, and the cauldron trembled slightly, dissipating Ye Lingtian’s Abyss Punishment Spear.

"Hmph! I have cultivated for thousands of years with endless foundation. Youngster, do you think you can act recklessly just because you have the home advantage here? I know you have temporarily enhanced yourself! There is a great cost. I advise you to give up!"

Seeing Ye Lingtian’s attack temporarily thwarted, Diao Mingde’s somewhat pale face finally revealed a cold smile.

"This cauldron was created by a top-tier artifact forger of our Heavenly Dao Palace, with its three legs and two ears subtly aligned with the intent of the Heavenly Dao, possessing the power to subdue the world. It’s somewhat excessive to use it against Sin Blood remnants like you.

However, since you have forced me to bring out the Heavenly Guardian Wind Tripod, even if you die here, it would not have been in vain!"

"Scram!!"

Ye Lingtian spat vehemently, "Don’t even mention a magic treasure refined by the top-tier artifact forger of the Heavenly Dao Palace, even if Xuanyuan Moxie himself were here, in the Ancestral Land of my Ye Clan, I would dare to fight him for several rounds!"

"Insolent! What do you amount to? The Lord Palace Master embodies the will of the Heavenly Dao, the representative of Heaven and Earth Dao, and you dare insult him!" Diao Mingde rebuked angrily.

"That old bastard is your Palace Master, not mine," Ye Lingtian replied coldly, "I not only insult him, but if given the chance, I will kill him myself in the future! To avenge the Samsara Master!"

"Arrogant brat, unaware of Heaven and Earth’s vastness. The Lord Palace Master stands high above the Nine Heavens, overlooking billions of lives in the Divine Kingdoms. Do you think you can escape alive now or in the future?

Here, besides me, there are many Heavenly God Realm experts from various forces outside the Jueye Land, all waiting to hunt down members of the Ye Clan.

Don’t think that killing Dao Yan and others makes you invincible in the world!"

Diao Mingde laughed as he spoke, his face full of wrinkles mocked.

He then looked at those peak masters from other forces around and said, "Everyone, you have watched enough, it’s time to take action and join me in subduing this ant!"

The five other powerhouses at the first or second level of the Heavenly God Realm from other forces exchanged looks but did not respond much.

In fact, they were equally shocked by Ye Lingtian’s performance.

Based on the past experiences of hunting the Ye Clan disciples after the ancestral worship of the Ye family, nothing like today’s situation had ever occurred.

In the eyes of these veteran experts, Ye Lingtian’s cultivation at the ninth level of the Chaos Realm was not much, and the Ye Clan had had similar experts in infinite past, yet nothing like today had happened.

One man fought his way out, unaffected by the unique laws of Jueye Land, fiercely and vigorously, killing two elders of the Heavenly Dao Palace in one breath.

What a means that is!

Outside, elders of the Heavenly Dao Palace at this level, even one dying would be a huge deal.

Yet here in recent days, two have died consecutively, and the third only barely managed a draw with the young man, with the outcome still uncertain.

In the past, those Ye Clan experts were much like these outsiders, either relying on their own strong cultivation to resist the law suppression of Jueye Land or under the protection of the Linglong Pagoda to move freely within.

When had such a scene as today ever occurred?

Initially, these individuals entered mainly to support the Heavenly Dao Palace in expelling the Linglong Tower from here, intending for the real hunting of Ye Clan disciples to happen outside with divine might displayed freely.

Experience is right in front, which of these refined elders is not wise?

Even a hair’s breadth can see that Ye Lingtian didn’t exhaust much effort in killing the two elders, even whether he went all out is questionable.

In this situation, the remaining Tribute-level Elder Diao Mingde of Heavenly Dao Palace actually wants them all to join in; how is that possible? If they die here or simply get dragged to death alongside before this man dies, that would be the biggest loss.

Should they rely on Heavenly Dao Palace for compensation afterward?

After so many years, all forces within the Seven Divine Countries have long understood one thing: rather than expecting compensation from the Heavenly Dao Palace, believing that a sow can climb a tree is more feasible.

Diao Mingde’s proposal received no response.

The five Heavenly God Realm experts around had a mutual understanding; none spoke up, so collective inaction ensured the Heavenly Dao Palace couldn’t possibly handle all the remaining forces within the Divine Kingdoms simultaneously.

Facing the silence, Diao Mingde’s expression changed slightly, then he became somewhat impatient, "Everyone, do you intend to collude with these Sin Blood remnants?"

"Not so!"

Among them, an elder with silver hair holding a dragon head cane slightly shook his head, his expression solemn as he said, "Elder Diao, let’s withdraw and reconsider our strategy!"

"Why?"

Diao Mingde’s face darkened, "The order from the Heavenly Dao Palace is issued, and you all received the call. This cleansing was meant to be once and for all, but if you continue to remain on the sidelines, what happens if word reaches the Lord Palace Master, it might not end well?"

"Elder Diao, it’s not that we wish to remain idle but that we hold no advantages."

Another elder with a sage-like appearance sighed and reminded, "Elder Diao, do not forget, even though the forces of the Ye family are only a tenth of what they were ten thousand years prior, we can all sense that there are at least a few Heavenly God Realm experts within the Linglong Pagoda.

Now, just this little monstrous one has easily killed two powerhouses of the Heavenly Dao Palace, if we were truly to battle them here, even with all our efforts, it is not certain we could win."
