Chapter 797 The Pioneer

There is absolutely no need to go any further.

When one after another, prodigies and geniuses revealed their immense power, draped in dragon-patterned robes.

The same stimulus, almost equally intense, affected both the ancestral holy kings of the demon race and the ancestral kings of the stubborn faction of the Dao Alliance.

If we have to wait until Katya and Ye Yishui come out of the mountains, then we can only shake them by using the supreme path of combining ice and fire, each with the nine yin and nine yang techniques.

The will of those stubborn aristocratic families must have been as towering as a mountain.

even.

Yue Hanzhang thought so.

In this process, what truly provoked the stubborn aristocratic families was not necessarily the Nine Dragons Gauze Robes worn by Huang Zhishu and her two companions, but rather a large number of cultivators from the moderate aristocratic families.

They may choose to participate in the guarantee chain, directly exchanging scriptures for Taoist knowledge.

Perhaps because they had already given up the stage to the infighting of the stubborn aristocratic families in the past, they had become deeply involved in the ancient battlefield. They could use the spoils from killing the late-stage demon king of the outer realm to obtain the exchange qualification to transcend the guarantee chain.

Many moderate families have already chosen to rapidly increase their Taoist cultivation.

This is what the conservative aristocratic families cannot tolerate.

Often, even the strength of the opponent cannot achieve such a decisive effect.

Because of Yue Hanzhang's existence, the Beihai Tiandu lineage also seemed excessively aloof.

Only a powerful alliance of moderate aristocratic families, who can be considered "fellow travelers," can genuinely instill a sense of crisis in the stubborn aristocratic families!
This was the last straw that broke the camel's back.

At this moment, when the "furnace of the world" had burned so intensely that it was only a step away from destruction, the heads of the stubborn aristocratic families finally made their decision.

of course.

The necessary "steps" still need to be taken.

A necessary stepping stone should still be provided.

No head of a powerful family would willingly be the one to abandon the legacy of their ancestors.

thus.

At this moment, under Yue Hanzhang's watchful gaze.

In Yuzhou, where the Xinghu Tao family is based, a rare Outer Realm Venerable King of the seventh level of Outer Realm manifested his form in the sacred realm of a certain county's aristocratic family.

Ordinary prominent families in towns and counties, such as the Tengxia Zhu family of Jichuan County, almost never have such a strong and powerful foundation.

However, this town-level aristocratic family is different. Like the Southern Chen County of Qizhou in the past, it is nominally a town-level aristocratic family, but in reality, it is the ancestral lineage of a certain state-level aristocratic family, with an extraordinary foundation.

Only with such a solid foundation can we ensure that the Venerable King, who will be present in the later stages of the outdoor scenes, can be stationed in the Sacred Realm as a ballast.

Only such a ballast stone can provide a stepping stone for the powerful families of various towns and prefectures, while also ensuring the smooth progress of the battle in the ancient battlefield.

Even the ancestral kings of the stubborn aristocratic families went to great lengths to ensure the success rate.

This supreme king traversed the starry sky and, upon entering the ancient battlefield, directly confronted the battle lines of the two races.

It was as if it had been planned in advance.

Just then, two Venerable Kings at the late stage of the Outer Realm—one from a neutral aristocratic family and the other from a stubborn, marginalized family that had previously emerged from the Time Division—joined forces to injure a Demon King at the late stage of the Outer Realm.

Driven by the life-or-death crisis, the demon king fled for his life like a headless fly.

And so, they bumped right into the esteemed prince of this prominent family in the prefecture.

One is a cultivator in his prime.

One was a demon king whose body was mostly mangled and bloody.

one strike.

It was merely a single, penetrating strike that combined the seven layers of divine light.

The demon king was instantly killed by him.

That's how fast, accurate, and ruthless it was!

And almost the instant that the powerful and influential King of Zhenjun succeeded.

The two cultivators who were chasing the demon king in the distance immediately turned around and retreated, as if they were not the ones whose prey had just been stolen.

obviously.

Some stubborn, aristocratic families had already made a deal with the two of them.

Behind this one person's attack on the demon king and seizure of the exchange qualification, there are countless people protecting and supporting him.

Everything was proceeding according to the predetermined "script".

At the same moment that the two Venerable Kings withdrew, the Venerable King of the Zhenjun family, carrying the Demon King's annihilated corpse in one hand, instantly turned and withdrew from the ancient battlefield, then changed direction and crossed towards the Heavenly Capital Sacred Realm.

Swah——

This king did not appear directly in a place very close to the Heavenly Capital Sacred Realm, but rather very respectfully at a distance.

Then he spoke clearly.

"Your Majesty, I have followed Your Majesty's instructions and slew the Demon King, who was in the late stage of the Outer Realm. I hereby present the Demon King's corpse. I now humbly request Your Majesty to open the channel for exchanging the Six Dragons Gauze Robe."

"Moreover, the He clan has a shallow foundation and cannot produce the supreme merit of the Six Yin and Six Yang that aligns with their own path."

"I now offer twelve incomplete sets of books from my clan in exchange for profound Taoist teachings from King Lingye."

"in addition."

"Our clan is the ancestral family of the He family of Beichen. Today, we present the supreme seal script and supreme talisman array of the secret Daoist path of the He family of Beichen, along with the six volumes of scriptures, as a handling fee for King Lingye's actions!"

The moment the king spoke, Yue Hanzhang was already standing in the sky above the Heavenly Capital Sacred Realm.

Honestly.

This was handled rather sloppily.

But it is precisely because things are so rough that the eagerness of the stubborn, aristocratic families and their ancestors is even more apparent.

They desperately need such a "stepping stone" to appear.

And the same.

In fact, Yue Hanzhang may have needed such a "stepping stone" as a way to completely open up the ancestral foundation of the stubborn faction.

There's really no need to fuss over some of the details.

and.

In his subsequent actions, this person also demonstrated sufficient sincerity within the rules. After all, he represented a prominent family in the prefecture, and could certainly offer a secret Daoist scripture of a slightly lower rank than that of a prominent family in the prefecture.

However, what he presented was the true essence of the He family of Beichen, a legitimate secret path of a state-level aristocratic family.

In terms of the rank and level of their cultivation path, they are no different from the powerful families of Zhenzhou.

and.

They could have been less "pragmatic" and instead provided the six books required for the handling fee as three complete sets.

Normally, they could give six different books, some with seal script but no talisman arrays, others with talisman arrays but no seal script. Such books would be impossible for ordinary people to comprehend and achieve enlightenment.

Even if Yue Hanzhang were used for pure data traffic, the utilization rate would be much lower than that of the entire set of data.

We have to use a chaotic dynamic algorithm to deduce and refine it first, and fill in the missing parts.

This already demonstrates their sincerity.

They were afraid that Yue Hanzhang would turn against them over some minor detail and refuse to exchange the dragon-patterned gauze.

And in the same place.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Yue Hanzhang simply nodded slightly, his expression detached from worldly concerns.

Then, he changed his mind and felt it was necessary to "return the favor".

The conservative aristocratic families still regarded this "instigator" as a burden, or even as a stepping stone for the heads of various aristocratic families to back down.

But Yue Hanzhang felt that they shouldn't follow their line of thinking.

He wanted to use this "instigator" as a banner, a signboard.

With this thought firmly in mind, Yue Hanzhang spoke clearly.

"Although the process of suppressing the demon king was somewhat clever, since these details are outside the rules that I mentioned earlier, they are not a big deal."

"Come with me."

"Furthermore, Yue believes that every person who dares to be a pioneer deserves more blessings from heaven."

"You come to exchange the scriptures for the supreme cultivation path and unparalleled merit that I, Yue, possess?"

"That's not a problem."

“I just witnessed your attack that killed the demon king.”

"Coincidentally, I have quite a few top-tier secret cultivation paths here that fit your path and can be combined into Yin and Yang!"

"Even the most advanced paths have their differences in quality and strength. The difference between secret teachings and popular teachings is ultimately subtle and minute."

"I will use the merits of the secret, top-tier cultivation path to weave a dragon image for your Six Dragons Gauze Robe!"

"As for your entire clan, and the He family of Beichen who are willing to offer up their secret cultivation methods, all cultivators from the He family, large and small, who come here to exchange for the Dragon Image Robe, I, Yue, can guarantee it—"

"The dragon-patterned gauze robe must be entirely woven from the fruits of the secret, top-tier cultivation path!"

"The Three Dragons Gauze Robe must also contain two dragon images, woven together from the fruits of the secret, top-tier cultivation path!"

"With the Six Dragons Gauze Robe, the secret cultivation techniques passed down through the top path will simultaneously elevate you to level four!"

"Although this is a difference of only a hair's breadth in terms of foundation, even if you add up the Six Dragons Gauze Robe, the Four Dragon Images, and the Eight Divisions of Merit, it might only amount to a tiny thread."

"But it really exists!"

"This is my commendation for those who dare to be pioneers!"

"From this day forward, this boundless sea of ​​Dao, encompassing all families and clans, will only bear this one promise!"

As soon as the words were spoken.

Yue Hanzhang immediately felt that the gazes of the ancestral kings gazing down from the distant sky were filled with a surge of emotions and an extremely intense explosion of mental resonance.

Are you envious?

Regret it now?

But Yue Hanzhang was determined to do it!

The point is to let the world see what kind of reward will be given to the first person to stand beside Yue Hanzhang!

Because aside from those cultivators with large families and great wealth who could produce twelve complete sets of top-tier secret Daoist cultivation achievements without needing to exchange for Yue Hanzhang's Daoist foundation.

For any cultivator who needs to exchange Daoist foundations with Yue Hanzhang, Yue Hanzhang can only randomly provide whatever suitable merit is available.

Aside from old friends, old acquaintances, the Beihai Tiandu lineage, and the Taoist alliance.

As for the rest, Yue Hanzhang would only use the commonly transmitted top-tier Dao path as much as possible, and would only use the secret top-tier Dao path occasionally when he was in a good mood, or when he encountered an obscure Dao path and there were not many commonly transmitted Dao paths.

However, at this moment, Yue Hanzhang's promise to the He family meant a minimum guarantee on the quality of Longxiang gauze clothing!
Both are top-tier paths.

However, the difference is not that significant.

If there is a slight difference in the merit of one work, then there will be a difference of twelve slight differences in the merit of twelve works.

When one reaches the level of ancestors and kings, reaching the limit and the end, often the slightest difference is enough to determine victory or defeat, life or death!
really.

As soon as the words were spoken.

Originally, the respectful King He Jiazun's face was now adorned with a bright, joyful smile.

Previously, his expression even showed some distress.

They probably also felt a sense of helplessness about being burdened with the label of "the instigator."

But at the moment.

Everything is different.

He wasn't the instigator; he was a pioneer!
He was the one who laid the foundation for the resurgence of the He family!
At this moment, his thinking had unconsciously broken away from the ranks of the stubborn aristocratic families, and he began to see things from the same perspective as Yue Hanzhang.

In place.

Yue Hanzhang had already turned around and was walking back towards the Heavenly Capital Sacred Realm.

Behind him, King He followed closely, his figure showing heartfelt respect.

And behind them.

At this moment, a group of stubborn ancestral kings are marching towards the ancient battlefield!

Like a vast ocean pouring down, like a thousand sails racing!
