The progress of the small yellow dog truly astounded Ye Tianchen. Compared to the previous time when the small yellow dog collided with a rock and shattered it, this was a world of difference. This time, what the small yellow dog demonstrated was not just the hard power of its physical body, but a kind of divine skill, a divine skill of destruction and killing, where the dragon's presence is felt but unseen, capable of wiping out a person unknowingly with a great divine power. This was quite terrifying!

Being able to smash a huge rock might indicate an astonishing physical power, but being able to silently perform an assassin's act, taking down an enemy without them even knowing how they died, is truly frightening. Now, the small yellow dog's cultivation realm and divine skills signify a leap of several levels, how could Ye Tianchen not be surprised?

Perhaps one day the small yellow dog will truly cultivate into a human form, speak with human language, and become a dominator of one side. By then, it will naturally guard Desolate Stone Village, adding a powerful force to this weather-beaten and bullied village, allowing it to defy the heavens for a battle. They are honest and simple, but surely possess the blood and iron of unyielding bones!

At that moment, in the Heavenly Ancient Martial World, in the hidden place of the Huangjin family, Huangjin Xuanyuan stood in the great hall of the Huangjin family, his eyes brimming with killing intent, looking into the distance. The direction he was gazing toward was precisely the junction between the Heavenly Mountain Ancient Martial World and the Song Mountain Ancient Martial World. At this time, he had received the news that his seventh son, Huang Jin Kuang, had also perished. He was no match for Ye Tianchen, dying in the misty demonic land. If someone appeared before Huangjin Xuanyuan at that moment, they would fear being ruthlessly slaughtered and used as a tool for his vented fury.

Huangjin Xuanyuan stood at the entrance of the great hall of the Huangjin family. It was already late at night. The entire family was very quiet, except for a few strong ones who were still cultivating, while most were already asleep, but Huangjin Xuanyuan could not sleep. He had just learned of this news and immediately had this information about Huang Jin Kuang's defeat and death carried to his subordinates' complete soul obliteration because he did not want this information to leak out before he had thought out a countermeasure. Huangjin Xuanyuan did not wish for this to shake his hard-earned position as family head.

"Ye Tianchen, I must make you live a life worse than death, cutting your flesh piece by piece, pulling out your bones one by one, extracting your blood drop by drop!" Huangjin Xuanyuan spoke heavily, the killing intent in his eyes seemed to materialize, condensing into two sharp swords. This indicated Huangjin Xuanyuan's cultivation was terrifyingly deep, reaching such a level.

What Huangjin Xuanyuan never expected was that his seventh son, Huang Jin Kuang, with such strong cultivation battle power and physical strength, being the strongest among his nine brothers, his physical strength unmatched by any brother, was Huangjin Xuanyuan's most proud achievement and Huang Jin Kuang's arrogant capital. Yet, he lost, dying at the hands of Ye Tianchen. Considering Huangjin Qiyun, two of Huangjin Xuanyuan's ten sons had already died in the blink of an eye. This made Huangjin Qiyun angry, angry not at the death of his sons, but that it would affect his rule over the Huangjin family. The reason Huangjin Xuanyuan became the family head of the Huangjin family was closely related to his ten sons, each being remarkable, of extraordinary talent, and heavenly talents. Especially the tenth son, Huangjin Wudao, who at birth caused a phenomenon that shook the land, even alarming the ancestor who hadn't appeared for thousands of years in the family. The ancestor only said one sentence: "The tenth son should be nurtured with all efforts, for he will become the leader of our Huangjin family and will protect our family to create a prestigious name in the entire Martial Arts World!"

It was precisely because the oldest ancestor of the Huangjin family praised so, most of the family's powers leaned toward Huangjin Xuanyuan. This was also the reason Huangjin Xuanyuan dared to name his tenth son Huangjin Wudao, so that his tenth son could walk further on the path of Martial Arts, to achieve the strength to overturn Martial Arts.

Subsequently, in the family head's position struggle within the family, Huangjin Xuanyuan was smoothly elected. However, due to his ruthlessness and character, coupled with some management abilities, there was still a batch of old guys within the family opposing him. Just because most people approved, and indeed Huangjin Xuanyuan's ten sons were exceptional, these old guys did not continue opposing, but decided to let Huangjin Xuanyuan try being the family head first.

The death of Huang Jin Qiyun had already damaged the prestige of the Huangjin family and made Huangjin Xuanyuan lose face shortly after becoming the family head. Although that group of old guys who opposed Huangjin Xuanyuan becoming the family head still hadn't spoken up, Huangjin Xuanyuan had already sensed danger. Hence, he sent out his seventh son, Huang Jin Kuang, to destroy Ye Tianchen completely. However, unexpectedly, Huang Jin Kuang was also unlucky, being shock killed by Ye Tianchen. Even one of the ancestral treasures of the Huangjin family, the Golden Cauldron, was suppressed by Ye Tianchen in the misty demonic land. Huangjin Xuanyuan felt a sense of collapse. If he couldn't even kill someone like Ye Tianchen with no background, what use did he have as the family head of this powerful family?

Swish!

A divine radiance shot out from the center of Huangjin Xuanyuan's brow, this divine radiance shot out far away, carrying his message, his orders to his seven other sons, bursting out of the Huangjin family. Except for the tenth son, Huangjin Wudao, the remaining seven sons all received Huangjin Xuanyuan's command. This time, Huangjin Xuanyuan went mad and became vicious. Not only did he want to kill Ye Tianchen, but he also wanted his seven sons to sweep across the three Ancient Martial Worlds, to reestablish the prestige of the Huangjin family, and to ensure that his position as family head would remain unshaken.

"The great upheaval of this Martial Arts World is coming, I, Huangjin Xuanyuan, shall become a hero among men, and the Huangjin family will become the strongest family in the entire Martial Arts World. Before that, my seven sons will move together, sweeping through Earth's three Ancient Martial Worlds, making all forces submit to me!" said Huangjin Xuanyuan, his eyes filled with viciousness.

On the other side, Ye Tianchen never dreamed that Huangjin Xuanyuan would send out all seven of his sons at once, resolutely determined not to kill Ye Tianchen without resting. Of course, whether Ye Tianchen knew about this news was irrelevant to him. No matter who the opponent was, no matter how powerful, as long as they dared to attack Ye Tianchen or his family and friends, Ye Tianchen would never sit idly by!

The next day, Ye Tianchen continued to teach five disciples the cultivation methods in Desolate Stone Village. He didn't actually say much. In his view, whether a person can travel far on the path of martial arts is closely related to their own talent and perception. As for what kind of legacy they receive or what kind of master they have, those are secondary. Without sufficient talent, great perception, and strong will, one can never travel far on the path of martial arts.

In Desolate Stone Village, Tian Shuang'er, Dongfang Meng, Zhang Ruotong, along with two child disciples, and also Hu Gao, had all become quite accustomed to, and indeed enjoyed, the life there. Everyone in the village was pure-hearted and kind. They were friendly and treated Ye Tianchen and the others as family. After Grandpa Shi passed away, a new clan leader emerged in Desolate Stone Village, a strong and powerful man named Shi Hubo. True to his name, Shi Hubo was large and burly, standing about two meters tall, with fists as big as small watermelons. He was not only physically strong but also intelligent. Even before Grandpa Shi's passing, it had been planned for him to take over Desolate Stone Village and become the next clan leader. Now, with Grandpa Shi's passing, Shi Hubo naturally became the clan leader of Desolate Stone Village. His relationship with Ye Tianchen was also like that of good brothers, and they were close.

"Brother Tianchen!" Shi Hubo came to the back mountain of Desolate Stone Village and saw Ye Tianchen teaching the five disciples, including Little Shitou. He couldn't help but call out.

"Keep practicing. Training the physical body can never be neglected. Don't think that only powerful martial arts divine skills can allow you to conquer the world. Without a strong physical body, it's difficult for any powerful martial arts divine skills to exert their ultimate power," Ye Tianchen advised the five disciples including Little Shitou before walking towards Shi Hubo.

"Brother Hubo, what is it?" Ye Tianchen asked.

Shi Hubo glanced at Ye Tianchen, seeming somewhat troubled, yet unsure of what to do, he said, "Brother Tianchen, I didn't want to bother you initially, but I still wanted to discuss this matter with you!"

"What on earth is it? No need to hesitate, just say it!" Ye Tianchen asked with a smile.

"It's like this. In the Heavenly Mountain Ancient Martial World, there is actually a larger village than ours. About several hundred years ago, this village oppressed our Desolate Stone Village. To preserve the entire village, the old patriarch reluctantly agreed to some harsh demands from them, such as offering tributes every ten years by sending some fresh and fine food. However, this year, this village has made an excessive demand..." Shi Hubo said with a bit of difficulty.

"What demand?" Ye Tianchen asked directly.

"Their village wants everyone in Desolate Stone Village to move to the Heavenly Mountain Ancient Martial World and obey their village's commands, becoming slaves under their village, and bowing to their clan leader..." Shi Hubo said with some anger. He was a man of great passion.

"Oh? I never heard the old patriarch mention this. What is the name of this large and domineering village in the Heavenly Mountain Ancient Martial World?" Ye Tianchen paused, not expecting such a large and powerful village to exist within the Heavenly Mountain Ancient Martial World.

"Devouring Sky Village!" Shi Hubo replied with a frown. (To be continued. If you like this work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to cast your recommendation votes and monthly votes. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read on m.qidian.com.)
