Chapter 823 Use every possible means
"I recognized you at a glance."

"After all, your own brother, the second ancestor of the Fu family, was killed by my own hands. I witnessed him go from being emaciated to having a strange and vigorous aura, and then back to being neither human nor ghost."

"Finally, it was burned to dust in my blazing pure Yang Heavenly Fire."

"No, in the end, even the dust was burned into nothingness, and all traces of his existence completely vanished into thin air."

"You two brothers look very alike."

This moment.

Yue Hanzhang's tone became deeper than ever before, as if it came from a dark and ghostly place, without a trace of human warmth.

And this moment.

As the surging Daoist aura of the Fu family patriarch soared into the sky, resonating with the myriad threads of the natural world, he forcibly resonated with nature through his own Daoist techniques.

The scene here, like a grand curtain of scriptures, shines across the boundless sea of ​​stars.

No.

It is even more real and clear than the reflection of the scripture curtain.

What it illuminates is not only a clear scene, but also a lingering, atmospheric feeling that seems to emanate from afar.

All beings who have stepped into the realm of the extraordinary can sense, through capturing this faint lingering aura, the suffocating environment in which Yue Hanzhang is currently located.

The intensity of the attack on the ancient battlefield dropped to its lowest level in an instant.

The ancestors and kings of both clans were watching from afar, and this battle was destined to be recorded in history, just as the sinister-looking patriarch of the Fu family had said.

Anxiety and worry were evident on the faces of the cultivators of the Beihai Tiandu lineage.

Elder Liu, who appeared in the sky above the Sacred Realm of Lingdu, took out a similarly mottled Dao Lord's Edict without hesitation, his expression urgent.

In an instant.

Subtle, almost imperceptible fluctuations of spiritual energy emanated from Elder Liu's palm, instantly dissolving into the natural world.

He was sending a message to an outer star system.

Elder Liu had done something similar when Yue Hanzhang destroyed the Fu family.

The defense was against the Fu family patriarch, who had completely lost his footing, returning to the Dao Alliance territory in a fit of rage.

In the past, everything was calm and peaceful.

Even Elder Liu felt that the storm had passed slowly.

But to everyone's surprise, the head of the Fu family still couldn't hold back.

He stepped onto the desolate shores of the starry sea. At this moment, not only was Yue Hanzhang's life in grave danger, but the great cause of reform in which the entire Dao Alliance headquarters participated and the achievements of the Dao Academy Alliance were also in jeopardy.

This also means that the so-called "last iron law" between the two races in the boundless starry sea, which had stood for countless years, was broken at this moment!

And the only way to break such an ironclad rule is zero or countless times!
They have no middle ground, and there is no such thing as a single, exceptional case!
The territories that both races had painstakingly cultivated in the explored star fields were now exposed to the threat of each other's inner-world level creatures, and were equally in grave danger!

All the future lingering poisons will begin from this day, and will all originate from the ancestor of the Fu family!

this moment.

Elder Liu felt his mind was in complete chaos.

He even found it difficult to say which of these precarious and disastrous outcomes would result in the most devastating consequences.

Or perhaps each of these is a devastating loss that the Dao Alliance cannot afford to suffer now.

In his haste, he was unable to organize his thoughts and could only instinctively contact the Dao Lords of the Dao Alliance in the outer star sea to relay what he was seeing, which was no longer necessary.

then.

A moment later.

Elder Liu sadly put down the Dao Lord's edict.

Then he stared blankly at the reflected scene.

this time.

Can miracles still be created, turning the rotten into the miraculous? Can things still break the ironclad rules of the Daoist realm?
at the same time.

In the heart of the Dao Alliance, within the sacred realm of the Tao family of Xinghu in Yuzhou.

Inside the dojo.

They took advantage of the protective array to conceal themselves.

The head of the Tao family was bursting into an extremely cold, cathartic, and manic laugh.

That smile distorted his face.

And when Yue Hanzhang's voice, reflected in the scene, also resounded throughout the entire starry sea.

Looking at Yue Hanzhang, who, despite being in such a dangerous place, had not let fear and terror penetrate his mental defenses and was even still verbally provoking his opponent, I was struck by his words.

The head of the Tao family suddenly calmed down.

He opened the most precious bottle of nectar from his collection, filled a cup, and raised it as if to pay homage to Yue Hanzhang from afar.

"Throughout history, the deaths of cultivators, regardless of the reasons or circumstances, can all be summed up in one sentence—"

"Skills are inferior to others!"

"Many people die because of their weakness and ignorance."

"As for today, King Lingye, you died because of your strength!"

"You are too powerful! So powerful that only by breaking the ironclad rules in this way can we shake your life and death!"

"pity."

"You've blocked the path of the aristocratic families."

"In the end, it's nothing more than a large-scale version of the former Tiandu Taoist Temple..."

Tao the Master had not yet finished drinking the wine in his cup.

But this moment.

His slightly narrowed eyes already showed a clear look of bewilderment.

It seemed as if they were merely imagining a bright future after Yue Hanzhang's death.

That was enough to make the head of the Tao family intoxicated.
-
This moment.

In the boundless sea of ​​stars, all the cultivators in the world, facing the perilous situation that Yue Hanzhang was in, had all sorts of thoughts swirling and churning, and all sorts of emotions and desires reacting in various ways.

However, only the patriarch of the Fu family, that sinister old man, remained truly calm in the face of Yue Hanzhang's deliberately provocative words.

"Are you trying to unsettle me?"

"Such methods and techniques are too low-level."

"You think mentioning my stubborn younger brother will throw me into a panic?" "No!"

"In that case, it will only strengthen my resolve to kill!"

"You say we look alike, but we are different."

"We are very different."

"Perhaps you people of later generations will not believe it, but in fact, my talent and ability are even greater than those of my younger brother."

"Logically speaking, I should be the founder of the internal cultivation and body-building method."

"The path he devised to break free from the cage is one that we should explore together."

"But sometimes."

"People have to make some choices."

"I must deeply realize how many geniuses and prodigies have been blocked by that cage. To explore that path, we need the fearless spirit of those who pave the way."

“If it were just me, or just the two of us brothers, we would still have that kind of heroic spirit.”

"Without the most basic devotion and immersion in the Dao, I would not have been able to become a Dao Lord!"

"But I am not a lone wolf."

"Behind me is the Fu family, who have devoted all their efforts to supporting my brother and me since our days in martial arts, helping us to come out of the border town!"

"At that time, the Fu family was still very weak."

"Among our generation, and even the Fu family members of several generations to come, there are not many who are capable of achieving great things."

"Therefore, I had to realize a fact—"

"If my brother and I embark on this path of exploring the future of this cage, and we encounter that highly likely unfortunate end, then the Fu family will be completely without a successor."

"Or they would perish amidst the powerful forces of the demon race, which were still able to advance southward at that time."

"Or, in the struggle between aristocratic families, their families will be destroyed and their entire clan wiped out in an even more tragic and desperate way."

“My brother is single-minded; he only has eyes for the path of internal cultivation and body forging.”

"But I can't live without these things in my heart!"

"So I betrayed him, betrayed my devotion to the path, and betrayed my own heart for the path!"

"Everything that happened afterward, my brother's tragic condition, his resentment towards me, every single thing, hurt me more than if I were killed."

"But the Fu family has continued its lineage, and the Fu family has become so powerful that it has become the leading family in Jinzhou."

"I have no regrets about anything I've done!"

“If I could go back to the beginning, a thousand times, ten thousand times, I would make the same choice.”

"Until you, until the day you killed my brother and caused the entire Fu family to be destroyed and wiped out!"

"From that moment on."

"I have only one thought—"

"Kill you!"

"I will stop at nothing, use every means at my disposal, to kill you!"

"And I will definitely kill you!"

"If, during this process, my emotions and desires affect my decision to kill you, then I can set aside my emotions."

"Therefore, when you just destroyed the Fu family, at the height of my rage, I could clearly feel the faint divine thoughts of my fellow Dao Lords weaving a net across the outer star sea."

"If I make a move then, not only will I fail to kill you, but I might also waste my only chance."

"So I calmed down."

“Originally, I thought we would only have such an opportunity when you set foot in the outer star seas.”

"I never expected that you would be able to suppress and kill a newly awakened Inner Realm Great Sage."

“I was worried that your combat power was already so beyond the limit. What would happen once you broke through your realm and completed your years of accumulation?”

"At that time, could I really be sure I could kill you?"

"I never expected this."

"I haven't even figured this out yet."

"A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity has arrived!"

"In the outer star sea, the rotation of nodes on the protective net has actually included my name."

"So I took advantage of the chaos to release a large number of wandering demons and vengeful ghosts into the explored star field, and even deliberately released a lot of inner realm level wandering demons and vengeful ghosts later."

"Once they wreak havoc on the explored star field, you, as the leader of the Dao Alliance, will inevitably have to take action to resolve this crisis."

"And at that time."

"I myself am hiding within one of these wandering demons and vengeful spirits, in that distorted world of form and spirit!"

"I had planned everything, but I never expected that this day would come so soon after I set foot on the frontier!"

"The moment we met, death had already arrived!"

"What follows is merely the process of your burial in the sea of ​​stars."

"Disturbing my mind?"

"There's no need to struggle anymore."

"To die by my hand is your inevitable and tragic end!"

this moment.

In order to shake Yue Hanzhang's mind, the old ancestor of the Fu family also had his inner Daoist charm permeating his aged voice.

But Yue Hanzhang's expression remained calm, and his smile remained enigmatic.

"Back then, when the young elder of the Yunbo Fu family cornered Yue in the third star field and surrounded him in the seventh star field, he thought the same thing and believed that he must kill Yue."

"But guess what?"

"The Yunbo Fu family no longer exists."

"But you're right about one thing: you two brothers are different."

"You are far inferior to the Body Forging Ancestor!"

The moment the words fell.

The smile vanished from the face of the Fu family patriarch.
