Almost at the same moment Xiang Qingchi's voice rang out, Lu Chengfeng's voice also echoed above and below, "Disciples of Yuncang Sword Sect, hear my command. From this day forward, no one is allowed to leave the mountain. Transmit the decree outside the mountain: Yun Cang is sealed, no entry without summons."
These two successive voices directly left many Yuncang disciples dumbfounded. With the enemy at the gates, their Sect Leader directly announced the sealing of the mountain, truly discarding even the slightest majesty and demeanor of a Northern Lands overlord, and reaching the pinnacle of retreat.
Even Xiang Qingchi was speechless, the fellow inside truly had not a shred of a strong individual's arrogance, promptly announcing the sealing of the mountain in such an honest manner.
However, regardless of how the opposing parties perceived it, once Lu Chengfeng's command was issued, naturally no one dared to defy it. Simultaneously, the matter of Yun Cang's mountain seal was swiftly relayed through other communication channels to the disciples outside the mountain.
Lu Chengfeng stayed within the Trapped Dragon Abyss; the Great Five Elements Extinction Sword Array was poised but not activated. As long as Xiang Qingchi did not step into the sect's gates, he would not make any moves. But once the opponent took action, he would not hesitate to activate the sword array.
Xiang Qingchi sat cross-legged on a cyan lotus platform, seemingly without the intent to make a move, merely blocking the sect's entrance, allowing no one to pass.
To any sect, such conduct is a blatant affront, causing the sect's dignity to be swept away, and the sect's leader to be ridiculed and mocked by many both inside and outside the sect.
However, Lu Chengfeng's prestige within the sect was too high. Now, all the True Inheritance disciples had seen his decisiveness and ruthlessness.
Moreover, the most important thing is that their Sect Leader is exceptionally talented, rising from the Outer Peak, achieving Celestial Human status in just a few short years, and has vast prospects for the future, being a true peerless prodigy.
The actions of such a person naturally have their own considerations. Although there are a few in the sect who feel embarrassed and frustrated, no one dares to express dissatisfaction with the Sect Leader's decision.
Lu Chengfeng personally cares even less about external commentary. Being blocked by a reincarnated True Dragon, now cultivating beyond the Seventh Layer of Celestial Human, simply not being forcefully slaughtered by her is already a victory. What does being blocked at the gate matter?
Those miscellaneous people's discussions, he takes as nothing more than the wind brushing his face, painless and itchless. As long as he survives and keeps getting stronger, those who once criticized him will eventually show fawning and reverent smiles.
Lu Chengfeng immersed himself in absorbing the gifts, leaving only a trace of his mind to focus on Xiang Qingchi's actions at the sect's entrance.
Unknowingly, time passed day by day.
By this time, it was already late autumn, yet Xiang Qingchi remained outside the sect's entrance night and day, enduring the elements without any action, merely guarding the spot like a stone statue.
Gradually, autumn faded, and before long, it was winter.
At first, Lu Chengfeng thought this woman merely intended to blockade the gate, causing him to lose face. But as time went on, he gradually sensed something was amiss. She, as a True Dragon Reincarnation with such profound cultivation, what could possibly warrant wasting time on such meaningless deeds?
He cautiously investigated but found nothing. However, his Primordial Spirit perceived danger; the premonition of crisis grew increasingly intense in his heart.
"What on earth is this woman up to?"
Unable to uncover anything himself, Lu Chengfeng mobilized everyone in the sect, using every subtle change to ascertain the opponent's actions.
He himself continued immersing in secluded cultivation, constantly refining the gifts. As long as he could master the Divine Techniques of North Nether Abyss, no matter what tricks and schemes the opponent had, they would ultimately fail.
...
No matter how thoroughly both inside and outside the sect investigated, they could not detect any signs.
What Lu Chengfeng did not expect was that Xiang Qingchi, this time, had entirely decided to destroy the Yuncang Sword Sect. She intended to completely bury this millennia-old sect.
Thus, she employed extremely mysterious means.
She was inherently a True Dragon Reincarnation, cultivating with the Eastern Splendor Demon Subduing Whip, using Wood Element Law to invoke wind and thunder, comprehending Yin and Yang, delving into Life Creation, and the Path of Divine Power, indescribably marvelous.
The cyan lotus beneath her, named Earth Fire Cyan Lotus, was born from the depths of ten thousand feet of earth veins, an exceedingly rare Heaven and Earth blessing.
Beneath ten thousand feet of earth veins, with perilous Earth Fiends and Fire Veins, even a Primordial Spirit True Man caught within could easily be incinerated to ashes, body and path dissolved, as in that ten thousand feet of earth fire, no living beings exist, only all-consuming magma.
Yet in such perilous conditions, it's possible for Earth Fire Cyan Lotus to emerge, nurturing boundless life force, embodying Life Law. It can be used to forge Divine Weapons or to resurrect the dead and regrow flesh, making it an exceptionally rare Heavenly and Earthly Treasure.
But few know that this, born from earth fire, under Magic control, can also easily cause earth vein upheaval and earth fire eruption.
The lotus beneath Xiang Qingchi was borrowed from elsewhere; it is a Magical Treasure, refined from millennia-old Earth Fire Cyan Lotus. Sitting atop, it exudes clear light over her body, boundless mana, endless vitality, an unmatched protective Magical Treasure.
Aside from this, when activated with Divine Techniques, it can also trigger earth fire eruptions, creating scenes of heavenly destruction and annihilation.
With Divine Techniques and the Cyan Lotus Immortal Treasure, she sensed the underground Fire Veins, and simultaneously used the Magical Treasure to comb and stir the earth veins, making them increasingly active and restless.
Due to the onset of winter, the subtle changes in earth veins, the exceptionally active fluctuations of earth fire, were all veiled by the encroaching severe winter.
