Chapter 378: Destroying the Sect

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

Gold Region.

At the gates of Golden Peak Sect.

Smoke billowed into the skies and people rushed about. A huge array covered the entire Golden Peak Sect as heavenly fire continuously struck the gates.

The long invasion of Gold Region had finally reached the end.

"This is how powerful a dream master can be. To think that they can directly burn the entire Golden Peak Sect together with the mountain and force everyone out..."

Ruan Junxian was a small infantry trooper tasked to rally the people. Witnessing the destruction of the sect from the foot of the mountain, his heart shook.

"Roar! Roar!"

On the peak of Golden Peak Mountain, a streak of terrifying spiritual spell appeared. It had a golden glow to it and it stretched out like a river. Suddenly, it flicked in the air and transformed into a huge golden roc. The roc had flaming-golden feathers and an awe-inspiring look. With the flap of its wings, it flew up towards the array.

"This is... a spiritual spell!"

Witnessing this scene, Ruan Junxian was stunned and his mouth was wide opened. "The feeling I get is... even though I am separated from it by such a huge array..."

"Hehe... This is the power of a True Elemental spiritual knight!"

A dream master beside Ruan Junxian laughed. "This must be the sect master of Golden Peak Sect - Venerable Golden Peak personally fighting! However, with us ambushing and trapping them, the True Elemental spiritual knight and the two True Divine Wu Zongs will not be able to escape!"

"These three powerful people will turn to dust?"

Ruan Junxian mumbled to himself.

At this point in time, Ruan Junxian had already obtained elemental force and was officially a dream master. However, he was still in admiration for these powerful beings.

In his previous sect, in the entire sect, there was only one such powerful being, Venerable Longhu!

But now, his new sect, Baize Mountain, paid no attention and directly struck against these 3 powerful people all at once!

The difference was too huge for one to imagine.

"A True Elemental spiritual knight will have an almost unlimited supply of spiritual strength. Most importantly, his spiritual spells will have true spirits. Even his most lowly spells would turn magical through his hands. Take this golden roc for example. It definitely has about a third of the power of an ancient beast... However, it's a pity for him, for the array is cast by 3 dream masters in the 7th Tier of the Illusionary Divine stage!"

The dream master chuckled and felt proud.

"Chirp!"

The golden roc flapped its wings and finally crashed into the array.

"Rumble!"

There was a shattering sound followed by the roar as the entire peak of Golden Peak Mountain shook.

On the array, a translucent layer slowly became visible and was rather thick like a wall. With the crash, the shook and cracks began to form.

In mid-air, three dream masters appeared. There were glows emitting from their bodies and the illusionary image of a plot of spiritual land appeared behind their backs. With that, the invisible plot of land crashed down.

"Buzz! Buzz!"

The array shook and in an instant, the cracks were repaired. It remained sturdy like a crystal rock, sealing up any last hope of escape.

"Venerable Golden Peak, why are you going against fate?"

The 3 Illusionary Divine elders crossed their legs and sat down. All of them looked composed. "The Imperial Court is overbearing and our actions are only in retaliation! If the Golden Peak Sect refuses to change, then everything within the array will be reduced to dust. If you want a chance of survival, submit to us and allow us to control you. If you agree, you might even be able to preserve your heritage!"

"Dream on!"

A voice was heard from the Golden Peak Mountain. "I've sworn to the heavens that I will forever go against you thieves!"

"Roar! Roar!"

As soon as he had finished his sentence, 5 streaks of spiritual spells appeared once more, transforming into different elemental water dragons in mid-air. Forming an array on its own, he commanded the dragon array to crash onto the array above.

"Bang!"

The water dragon array exploded, but the huge array merely shook. On the other hand, the flames and chilly ice scattered across the mountains, causing the entire Golden Peak Mountain to be stricken with disasters.

"Why are you forcing yourself even after knowing that all that you do will be of no use?"

The 3 powerful dream masters sighed. The huge array remained intact and a translucent-looking flame started to brew in the centre of the array.

Anything in the mountain, be it the rocks, grass or the panicky disciples turned into flames as soon as they came in contact with the translucent flame. Slowly, they melted.

The final defences of the Golden Peak Sect started to weaken under the burning of the translucent flames. It was only a matter of time before everything would turn into ashes.

It seemed that the dream masters of Baize Mountain were absolute this time and were insistent to wipe out everything on the mountain, be it the mountain itself, the disciples or even the sect head!

Within the peak in the Golden Peak Grandmaster's Hall.

Venerable Golden Peak witnessed the raging inferno and knew what the outcome of the fight would be. With a heavy heart, he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. "Baize Mountain... You guys are ruthless! How dare you guys claim that you are the good guys!"

"It is only normal that we had previously combined forces with the Hidden Dragon Guards to ambush against one of your elders!"

Beside Venerable Golden Peak, a middle-aged martial artist with a tall built stood straight.

"We have now fallen into their trap. It seems like there is no way of escaping..."

Venerable Golden Peak looked at his True Divine brother and gave a bitter laugh. "We have implicated the entire sect as well... Fortunately, Brother Cang has managed to escape and we can still preserve our heritage!"

The Golden Peak Sect was led by a True Elemental spiritual knight and two other True Divine Wu Zongs.

Although they were tricked this time, their sect would not be entirely wiped out. With one of them outside the array, the sect still had a hope of a future.

Venerable Golden Peak would not even think about whether the Imperial Court would send reinforcements to help them out.

With such a commotion over at the Golden Peak Mountain, it was obvious that the 5 Grand Organisations were taunting the Imperial Court to attack them. Considering the resources that the Imperial Court had, it was not wise to go head-on with the 5 Grand Organisations especially at this juncture.

"Haha... Sect head, don't be disheartened. We have our chance!"

The middle-aged martial artist broke out into laughter as he held a gourd in his hands. Biting the cap off, he drank heartily like a luxurious person.

"Chance? Let's bet on it!"

Venerable Golden Peak laughed as well.

"Well said! Rather than waiting here to be crushed by the array, let's fight our way to death!"

The middle-aged martial artist threw the gourd of wine on the ground and rushed out. "I am True Divine Xuan Wu. Who dares to challenge?"

"Challenge!"

"Challenge!!"

"Challenge!!!"

His last words were loud and striking, spread out far and wide into the clouds. His energy was like a tiny sun, vibrating and ready to explode.

With that, the illusionary figure of a giant appeared.

The giant was entirely black and had the shell of a tortoise on its back. A huge snake coiled around its body. With a ferocious roar, the giant struck a punch into the sky towards the array.

"Rumble!"

At the foot of the mountain, Run Junxian almost lost his balance. "True Divine?"

In his eyes, the giant which suddenly appeared had extremely toned muscles as though it had walked out from a fable.

Such martial arts was indeed scary and even Venerable Longhu might not be able to match up to it!

Furthermore, he had started to re-evaluate if his choice in becoming a dream master was a right one.

"Hmph, it's just a small trick!"

In mid-air, the three powerful dream masters exchanged glances and shook their heads.

If they were to be ambushed this giant, they would have to fear it.

However, now, the giant was trapped in an array which was given by a Sage. Its indisputable might would surely be able to contain this giant.

Under such circumstances, why would they be afraid of the taunt of a True Divine martial artist?

With this, the dream masters executed their techniques. The translucent flames started to gather, forming something which resembled a tiny sun. As soon as the tiny sun was formed, it started to descend.

"Aw! Aw!"

The giant started to beat its chest and roared. As its body was covered in flames, even the body of the True Divine was beginning to melt.

"Ah... F*ck it! Blood river!"

With the exclamation of a True Divine, the giant started to crumble. Where its heart was supposed to be, there was a huge hole. An emerald glow started to intensify, and with the energy of the True Divine's blood, it struck towards the array.

"Eh?"

"This is... the blood energy of a martial artist? His giving it his all!"

"He is indeed a powerful True Divine to be able to use his powerful blood energy to such an extent!"

The three dream masters quickly discussed how to deal with him, but none of them dared to go head-on with the True Divine's final blow. The only thing they could do was to continuously strengthen the array.

"Chila!"

As the emerald glow struck upon the array, it sizzled and exploded just like how boiling oil would react when in contact with water. The three elders shook as blood started to flow from their noses.

Even a Sage's array would come to a halt against such a powerful force. A huge hole emerged on the surface of the array.

"This is the time. Sect head, go!"

"Brother?!"

Venerable Golden Peak's eyes turned red. He quickly transformed into a streak of light, carried a few disciples with him and tunnelled his way out of the array. Within seconds, he disappeared into the horizon.

"Haha... My sect will live on!"

The middle-aged martial artist laughed as he started to bleed from his eyes, nose, ears and even his mouth. He was badly injured and there was no chance of survival.

This person had just sacrificed himself to fight for a chance of survival for his sect head and fellow disciples.

"This is pitiful, this is... amusing!"

Seeing this, the three dream masters remained in their seating posture and did not look defeated.

The streak of golden light was extremely quick. As it arrived at the horizon, it gazed back with a tinge of unwillingness before disappearing beyond the horizon.

"Rumble!"

At this point in time, the space in the air cracked as a giant hand stretched out, grabbing the golden glow.

Venerable Golden Peak's faint voice could be heard.

"Is this... the hand of a Sage?"

On the mountain, as the middle-aged martial artist witnessed the re-capture of his sect head, tears welled up in his eyes. "Hate! So much hate!"

"Hmph, we have spent so much effort to use you guys as bait knowing that the Imperial Court would cower in their palace. We can only take it out on you guys to appease us!"

One of the elders laughed as he commanded the translucent fire to burn the True Divine into ashes.

"Burn! Burn everything!"

"Rumble!"

The fire raged on for another day. The thousand over disciples of Golden Peak Sect were reduced to ashes, and even the mountain was reduced to a flat ground.

"This... Is this the power of a powerful being? Casually burning up places into hell..."

At the foot of the mountain, Ruan Junxian was in a daze.

As a small trooper in charged of rallying the people, he had the opportunity to witness the entire process. With this, his willingness to become a dream master became stronger.

On the second day, news of the destruction of Golden Peak Sect had spread, and all 99 regions of Da Qian remained solemn.

Any sect in the empire would now fear dream masters and would begin to establish good relations with powerful beings as backings.

Now, the Imperial Court had decided to prepare its army and war was imminent!
