A hundred miles away, the dark clouds were already so thick they seemed almost tangible, pressing heavily on the churning cloud lake.

Lightning bolts danced wildly in the clouds.

The muffled thunder gradually intensified, transforming into a continuous, rolling roar.

The power of heaven and earth made even those watching from a hundred miles away feel their hearts pound and their breath catch in their throats.

"coming soon!"

On the city wall, the white-bearded old man called out in a trembling voice.

Before he finished speaking——

Click!

A blindingly bright white bolt of lightning tore through the inky black sky.

Like a spear from the heavens, carrying a violent aura capable of destroying all things, it struck with unparalleled precision the body of the dragon that was raising its head to the sky in the sea of ​​clouds!
"Roar--!"

The painful roar of the dragon instantly resounded throughout the heavens and earth, drowning out the thunder.

Lightning exploded, and countless deep blue scales mixed with the faint golden glow of the dragon's blood splashed down like rain.

Mo Yue's enormous body convulsed and rolled violently, stirring up the sea of ​​clouds into chaos.

The blood, containing pure demonic power and the essence of life, dripped into the Cloud Lake.

The lake water suddenly shimmered with a magical light, spreading out a strange golden-blue hue.

Who knows what kind of monsters will be nurtured in the future?

The lightning strikes did not stop.

Before the first wave had even dissipated, the second and third waves had already followed in quick succession!
Each bolt of lightning was thicker and more intense than the last.

Mo Yue's body was covered in charred, curled scales, his flesh and blood were mangled, and pale golden blood flowed like a waterfall.

It roared, its powerful demonic body confronting the might of heaven head-on. Its claws tore and its tail swept, stirring up a curtain of water and shattered lightning, yet it was still struck so hard that its bones groaned and its aura weakened at a visible speed.

Having withstood seven bolts of tribulation lightning, Mo Yue was covered in wounds, his dragon eyes were dim, and even his circling movements appeared unsteady.

When the eighth bolt of lightning, resembling a thunder dragon and possessing double the power, crashed down, it finally reached its limit.

At the critical moment, Mo Yue suddenly opened his mouth, and a beam of dark light shot out!

It was an ancient, round shield that swelled in the wind as soon as it appeared, growing to several feet in diameter. Nine mysterious patterns appeared on the shield's surface, intertwined with each other, emitting a strange force field that could neutralize the five elements.

It was the Yuan Magnetic Shield that Xu Chuan had borrowed!
Boom——!
The eighth bolt of lightning struck the Yuan Magnetic Shield fiercely!
A blinding burst of lightning erupted, but the nine patterns on the shield swirled rapidly, twisting, dispersing, and absorbing most of the raging lightning power.

The remaining lightning force was transmitted to Mo Yue through the shield, causing it to tremble violently and spit out blood, but it was no longer a fatal blow.

The ninth, and also the final, tribulation lightning.

After the tribulation clouds had gathered to their fullest extent, they transformed into a nearly pure purple bolt of lightning, only as thick as a child's arm, yet extremely refined, which fell silently.

Its power is contained, its speed is unparalleled, and it strikes directly at the spirit of the heavens!

Mo Yue gathered its remaining demonic power, raised its head and roared, and the Yuan Magnetic Shield also shone brightly as it crashed head-on into the enemy!

The silent annihilation sphere expanded above the cloud lake, instantly robbing all sound, light, and color.

Those who watched from a distance of a hundred miles away all felt their eyes sting and their souls shake.

As the destructive aura slowly dissipated, the inky tribulation clouds also retreated rapidly.

The next moment, strange phenomena occurred in the heavens and earth!

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth within a radius of hundreds of miles flowed like rivers into the sea, frantically converging towards the sky above Cloud Lake, forming a massive spiritual energy vortex visible to the naked eye.

Colorful rays of light danced across the sky, ethereal music drifted in the air, and exotic fragrances wafted through the air.

At the center of the vortex, Mo Yue's battered and shattered dragon body is regenerating and expanding at an astonishing speed!

As the charred black scales fall away, the newly grown scales become a deeper, more profound blue, almost black, with a metallic sheen flowing around their edges.

The dragon's body grew longer and longer, from sixty zhang to eighty zhang to one hundred zhang... finally settling at over one hundred and twenty zhang!
The majestic dragon's body, as imposing as a mountain, coils in the sky.

Although the wounds remained, it exuded a vast, pure, and majestic demonic power far greater than before.

Its spirit and essence underwent a qualitative transformation after being refined by heavenly thunder, and a mysterious Daoist charm flowed within it.

"Success...success!"

North of Yunxi City, countless cultivators stared in disbelief, then erupted in a tidal wave of exclamations and horror.

"What terrifying pressure! Is that the pressure of a fourth-tier great demon? It feels even more terrifying than a Nascent Soul stage ancestor!"

Normal pressure would not be like this.

However, Mo Yue's true dragon bloodline has reached a certain level, enabling him to unleash the power of a true dragon.

Before the amazement could subside, fear was poured over them like ice water.

Many cultivators' expressions changed drastically: "Wait, it just underwent its tribulation, wouldn't it be looking for blood to replenish itself?!"

"The city's protective formation is absolutely no match for a single attack from a fourth-tier transformed demon!"

"Quickly, report to the City Lord's Mansion!"

Just as everyone was filled with panic, no one noticed that a faint blue light streaked across the sky for hundreds of miles in an instant.

They quietly appeared near Moyue.

This person was Xu Chuan.

Heavenly tribulation represents destruction, but after destruction comes new life.

Xu Chuan created the "Original Life and Death Seal" to comprehend the meaning of life and death. The "Death Seal" has been fully formed and solidified, and only the "Life Seal" is missing.

Now is the perfect time to refine the "Seal of Life".

Xu Chuan sat cross-legged in the void, his body devoid of any magical power fluctuations, yet he seemed to be one with this world that had just undergone the baptism of heavenly tribulation.

He formed a mysterious hand seal, and strands of strange vitality, remnants of the calamity and containing both destruction and rebirth, were drawn from the void, from the lake water, and from the edge of Moyue's newly reborn body by an invisible force.

The strands of energy converged into the mysterious white "Mark of Life" in front of him.

Life permeated the surroundings.

The "Seal of Life" is visibly transforming from the abstract into the concrete.

With the dragon's might as a deterrent, no cultivator dared to approach this place. And from a distance of a hundred miles, unless one was a Golden Core cultivator, it was impossible to observe the situation in Xu Chuan.

An hour later.

Above Yunhu Lake.

Xu Chuan slowly opened his eyes.

The "Seal of Life" in front of him, which had gathered countless life forces, solidified completely.

The next moment, it trembled slightly, and the "Mark of Death" flew out from its dantian.

Life and death, the two Dao seals met in the air.

The pure white and dim light blended together like water and milk, intertwining, permeating, and reconstructing each other.

The two energies of life and death are not simply superimposed, but rather, under the guidance of a certain Daoist principle, they evolve into a more essential form.

As the light faded, an ancient seal, roughly three inches square and neither gold nor jade, floated quietly in Xu Chuan's palm.

The seal is clearly black and white, but not completely divided.

Profound Dao patterns naturally appeared on the seal's body, seemingly formed by nature, and an indescribable, mysterious sense of life and death naturally emanated, permeating all directions.

This seal was created by Xu Chuan through his supernatural powers, absorbing countless energies of life and death to transform it into a magical treasure.

The concepts of life and death can both attack the physical body and destroy the spirit, existing in a single thought.

"You bastard Xu Chuan, you stole my lifeline!"

Mo Yue said in a deep voice, his huge, dark gold vertical pupils were as tall as a person.

A breath of cold air can directly create a cold current.

Xu Chuan flicked his storage ring, and a high-grade Extreme Star Pill and a high-grade Bone Growth Pill flew out. With a flick of his finger, they accurately disappeared into his mouth.

He then said, "These two pills will allow your physical body and soul to recover to their optimal state."

"That's pretty much it."

Mo Yue's body shrank rapidly until it was five or six zhang in size.

Half an hour later.

"Xu Chuan, I have recovered. At this moment, within the Heavenly Cang Palace, I am the supreme ruler, hehehe." Mo Yue's eyes revealed an undisguised smugness and arrogance.

"Anyone who dares to mess with the Xu family, I'll go and take them on a mission!"

Xu Chuan just chuckled when he heard this.

His expression remained calm.

It was as if the creature before him was not a newly emerged, ferocious, and terrifying transformed demon, but rather the same dragon that had once occupied the courtyard.

He looked up at the sky and said, "Alright, since you want to fight, then go and have a match with a cultivator of the same level."

Now that this matter is settled, we should head to Taihe Lake and see that innate hidden realm.

"Just what I wanted to do! I'll give you a ride!"

Having said that, it raised its head and let out a short, joyful dragon roar, its body swelling in the wind!
In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a hundred-foot-long dragon body, its scales a deep blue-black with dark gold shimmering at the edges. Its four claws beneath its belly gleamed with a chilling light. Simply by coiling there, it was like a mountain soaring into the sky, its demonic power overwhelming the world.

With a flick of his sleeve, Xu Chuan rose up like a leaf and landed steadily on the giant dragon's head, his feet resting precisely on the center of two dragon horns that resembled jade and coral and were imbued with the aura of water and thunder.

He stood with his hands behind his back, his blue robe remaining perfectly still in the howling wind.

"Walk."

"Roar--!!!"

A thunderous dragon roar resounded once more, this time no longer suppressed, its sound shaking the hundred miles, rolling like thunder, and soaring straight into the sky!

With a swish of its hundred-foot-long dragon body, Mo Yue stirred up the wind and clouds, transforming into a long, dark blue rainbow that tore through the sky and sped toward Taihe Lake!
Wherever it passed, the clouds dispersed, and the mountains and rivers below rushed backward.

Yunxi City, North Gate.

The deafening dragon roar, which had not yet fully subsided, resounded once more. Although it had already faded into the distance, the supreme demonic power and jubilant spirit it contained still made countless cultivators on and below the city wall freeze.

Many people even subconsciously shrank their necks and turned pale.

"They...they're gone?!"

A middle-aged cultivator in the early Foundation Establishment stage wiped the cold sweat from his brow, let out a long sigh, his voice still trembling, "Finally gone! That dragon's roar just now, even my soul trembled..."

"It's not just you!"

An elderly cultivator at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage stood nearby, still shaken, staring at the rapidly disappearing dark blue rainbow in the sky. "I've lived for nearly two hundred years and have never seen anything like it!"

"However, after that great demon departed to complete its tribulation, it showed no intention of attacking Yunxi City. Could it be that it has become friendly towards the human race?"

"Get close to humans? That's unlikely." The middle-aged Foundation Establishment cultivator shook his head with a wry smile. "Which cultivator doesn't fight fiercely when they see a demon beast?"

Even if we don't make a move, the monsters will definitely want to devour us.

After all, our flesh, blood, and soul are the ultimate delicacy for the demon beast race!

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent, feeling a mix of lingering fear and indescribable complex emotions.

The sky over Yunxi City has returned to its usual tranquility.

Everyone returned to the city.

Although I missed the chance to enter the innate secret realm, witnessing the transformation of a great demon undergoing tribulation today is something I can boast about to future generations.

A deep blue rainbow swept across the mountains and the great river.

In less than two hours, the vast and misty outline of Taihe Lake came into view.

Above the center of Taihe Lake, Qi Tianxiong, Xi Daoyun, and Mo Wentian, who were sitting cross-legged in the void in a triangle formation, felt the terrifying demonic power approaching. They all stood up, frowned, and turned to look into the distance.

After a while.

A long, dark blue rainbow tore through the clouds, descending upon Taihe Lake with overwhelming demonic power.

The hundred-foot-long dragon coiled high in the sky, its shadow like a prison, its eerie aura stirring the heart of the lake, causing the waves to surge backward.

Qi Tianxiong stood up, his eyes narrowed slightly, a black light seeming to flicker deep within his pupils. He stared at the enormous demonic creature in the air and said in a deep voice, "A fourth-order transformed demon... May I ask how you are addressed? What brings you here uninvited?"

Just as the three were on high alert, a peaceful voice came from the top of the giant dragon's head, where the demonic aura was strongest: "Sect Master Qi, it's been a long time."

The appearance of a primordial secret realm is such a grand event that my Xu family naturally must participate.

Upon hearing the voice, all three were startled.

A glint of bloodlust flashed in Qi Tianxiong's eyes, as if he were recalling the source of that familiar voice.

Xi Daoyun raised a white eyebrow, a look of surprise and doubt flashing in his eyes—

That sound was clearly...

Before they could think further, the three of them instinctively rose into the air, their nascent souls forcefully penetrating the dense demonic energy barrier, finally glimpsing the scene atop the giant dragon's head—

With his blue robe flowing gracefully and his hands clasped behind his back, who else could it be but Xu Chuan?

"Xu Chuan?!"

Mo Wentian blurted out, his white beard trembling, his face filled with disbelief.

"He actually controlled a transformed great demon?! How is that possible!" He was shocked. Although he had guessed that the Xu family had a trump card, he thought it was Xu Chuan's own extraordinary combat power, which was enough to barely fight against a Nascent Soul cultivator.

"If the Xu family has such a trump card, why didn't they reveal it sooner?!"

Mo Wentian felt a renewed sense of doubt.

Given the Xu family's abundance of outstanding talents, if Mo Wentian possessed Nascent Soul level combat power, he would absolutely not participate in the competition for the position of Lord of Tiancang Prefecture.

It was because the Tiancang Sect was severely damaged, Xi Daoyun's soul injury was difficult to heal, and other forces no longer had a Nascent Soul stage expert to guard the area that he felt this was a once-in-a-century opportunity for the Mo family.

"The Xu family."

Xi Daoyun remained silent, his heart heavy, and he couldn't help but think that the Heavenly Cang Sect's time was up.

Qi Tianxiong's gaze swept back and forth between Xu Chuan and the unusually quiet hundred-foot-long dragon, a deep sense of apprehension flashing across his sinister face.

After a short while, he asked, "Xu Chuan, what is your relationship with this transformed demon?"

Mo Yue spoke in a deep voice, which immediately stirred up a storm: "My name is Mo Yue, and I am the Supreme Elder of the Xu family. Do you have any objections?"

"How about you fight me and see what happens!"

Xu Chuan looked down calmly at the three people with different expressions, his gaze lingering briefly on Xi Daoyun's pale face, a slight smile deepening at the corners of his mouth.

"Senior Xi's injuries have not yet healed. Why not rest more instead of traveling all the way to Taihe Lake?"

"Hmph, can't this old man come?"

"Of course not, but I'm afraid that if Senior Xi were to accidentally perish outside, the Tiancang Sect would collapse in an instant."

"Threatening me?"

"How dare I, a junior?" Xu Chuan smiled faintly. "Senior Mo, how have you been?" Xu Chuan then looked at Mo Wentian.

Mo Wentian nodded with a bitter smile, saying, "Fellow Daoist Xu, how have you been?"

"Mo Yue, don't be so arrogant! Let this sect master see the strength of your transformed demon form!"

Xu Chuan brought a fourth-order transformed demon with him, clearly intending to get a share of the pie. The side with the stronger strength would naturally gain more say.

Qi Tianxiong and Mo Yue flew to the sky to fight, and Xu Chuan did not interfere, letting Mo Yue fight freely.

After all, he had been holding back his frustration for far too long!
He was sealed away for thousands of years until he was nearing the end of his lifespan.

He was able to escape by forming a contract with a minor cultivator in the early stages of Foundation Establishment, but his strength was greatly reduced, and he fell to the second level.

Although with Xu Chuan's help, they gradually returned to their peak.

However, the thought of his lifespan ending always hung like a sword over his head. Unless he absolutely had to take action, Xu Chuan basically forbade him to fight at full strength.

This was extremely difficult for the naturally warlike dragon clan.

Now that he has entered the fourth stage of transformation, his lifespan has increased dramatically, and he can finally roam freely between heaven and earth. Xu Chuan will naturally let him vent his frustrations.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, you've really kept this trump card well hidden!"

Mo Wentian sighed deeply, his eyes filled with complex emotions. "With Fellow Daoist Mo Yue's appearance, the entire situation in Tiancang Prefecture is about to change."

"Among the eight prefectures, Tiancang Prefecture has long been at the bottom, so it is natural that it needs to be changed."

"If we don't find new vitality, we'll have to wait until the Greedy Wolf Sect comes up with another plan. Senior Mo, and Senior Xi, do you really think the Heavenly Cang Prefecture can stop us?"

Xu Chuan chuckled as he thought of something, "However, it will be you, Senior Mo, who will have a headache then."

Mo Wentian understood immediately and smiled gently, "Isn't there still your Xu family?"

"If Tiancang Prefecture truly has no future, then it's uncertain whether my Xu family will remain in Tiancang Prefecture at that time. Perhaps we will develop in the more suitable Xuanyue Prefecture."

After all, the young boy's apprenticeship under the Xuan Yue Ancestor seems to be highly valued.

Mo Wentian and Xi Daoyun both frowned, pondering the deeper meaning behind Xu Chuan's words.

Is this a warning to us not to stand in the way of the Xu family?

Otherwise, why not cut off all ties with Tiancang Prefecture altogether?
boom! boom! boom!
Several muffled, thunderous sounds, like the pounding of heavy leather, exploded from high above.

The group looked up and saw that the sky seemed to have been torn in two by an invisible force.

Qi Tianxiong transformed into a blood-red rainbow, his superior-grade demonic blade radiating murderous aura. With a single slash, a hundred-foot-long blood-red blade of light tore through the sky, amidst the shrieks of countless ferocious souls.

Before the blade even arrived, its fierce and domineering intent had already silently parted the surface of the lake below, creating turbid waves tens of feet high.

Mo Yue hovered in the air, facing the hundred-foot-long crimson blade of light, yet he neither dodged nor avoided it; instead, a burning fighting spirit ignited in his dark golden vertical pupils.

Its dragon scales suddenly burst forth with a deep, inky black light, and a true dragon's might originating from its bloodline was unleashed in full force!

"Ow-!!"

The dragon's roar that shakes the heavens is not merely a sound wave, but an ancient majesty that strikes the soul and reigns supreme over all living beings.

Xi Daoyun and Mo Wentian, who were watching the battle from afar, both felt their sea of ​​consciousness tremble violently, as if they were being pressed down by an invisible giant mountain, and their magical power was slowed down by three points.

Qi Tianxiong, who was the first to be hit, felt as if his soul had been struck by a heavy blow. Even the fierce and incomparable blood-red blade light trembled slightly and dimmed a little.

"It's actually a dragon that has awakened the might of a true dragon. Has the true dragon bloodline within him reached a certain level?"

Mo Wentian looked at Xu Chuan and continued, "It seems that it will be difficult for Fellow Daoist Qi to win. Such powerful dragon-like demonic beasts often possess the strength to fight beyond their level."

Xi Daoyun's gaze was also solemn.

Even at his peak, he wouldn't dare to easily provoke such a transformed demon, even if it was only in the early stages of transformation.

In that split second, Mo Yue suddenly extended a dragon claw!
Its claws and toes were like towering pillars, its entire body covered with incredibly dense dark blue scales, the edges of which shimmered with metallic cold light and extreme freezing energy. Without dodging or avoiding, it fiercely grabbed at the blood-red blade light!
Clang——! ! !
The deafening clang of metal against metal resounded throughout the universe, and a visible circular shockwave erupted from the point of impact, sweeping away the surrounding clouds.

The crimson aura frantically eroded and attempted to corrupt the dragon's claws, but the dragon's scales shimmered with blue light and were filled with extreme cold, which froze and dispelled the foul aura!
Qi Tianxiong's domineering strike landed on the dragon's palm, only to explode into a burst of dazzling sparks, leaving a relatively deep white mark, without even completely breaking the dragon's scales!

On the contrary, the extreme cold emanating from the dragon claw instantly condensed his demonic energy shield into a thick layer of frost.

"what?!"

Qi Tianxiong was shocked. His aura clearly indicated that he had only recently taken human form!
Before he could change his move, Mo Yue's other dragon claw tore through the air, bringing with it a chilling aura and immense power, and slammed down on his head!

Before the claw wind even arrived, the extreme chill had already made Qi Tianxiong's blood begin to freeze.

Qi Tianxiong roared, his figure shifting like a ghost, leaving behind several solid afterimages.

His true form flashed to the side, and the demonic blade slashed again, transforming into a sky full of blood-red blades that enveloped Mo Yue's vital points.

At the same time, his left hand formed a hand seal, and a surge of powerful demonic energy emerged, transforming into three ferocious, roaring, pitch-black demonic wolves. This was his demonic energy transformation technique, which attacked from tricky angles.

The hundred-foot-long dragon body nimbly tumbled and rolled amidst the barrage of blades and demonic wolves, its dark blue scales becoming its strongest barrier.

The crimson blade flashed down, clanging incessantly, sparks flew from the scales, leaving white marks, yet it could never truly penetrate.

The demonic wolf tore and bit, its fangs and claws rubbing against its scales, producing a teeth-grinding sound. Its malevolent aura corroded the scales, but it could not shake the foundation of its powerful demonic strength.

"Extreme Cold Dragon Breath!"

Mo Yue seized the opportunity, opened its huge mouth, and spewed out an extremely condensed, dark blue cold stream that instantly crossed space, freezing even the spiritual energy in its path into a crystal solid.

Qi Tianxiong hastily summoned his top-grade magic weapon, the Ghost Head Shield, to block in front of him.

Crack!
The shield's surface was instantly covered by thick, dark ice, and its spiritual light dimmed rapidly.

"Beast!"

Qi Tianxiong was filled with shock and anger after failing to break through the defenses for a long time.

His eyes flashed with a blood-red light, and he finally stopped holding back. His demonic energy surged and poured into the demonic blade, unleashing an even more domineering blade light.

Mo Yue's enormous vertical pupils suddenly contracted, its scales stood on end, and the blue light blazed brighter than ever before.

He actually pushed his true dragon bloodline to its current limit, and faint black dragon pattern phantoms appeared around his body, condensing into a light shield that blocked in front of him.

A dark red blade flashed as it struck!
The black dragon soul shield held out for a moment before finally shattering with a mournful cry.

The remaining blade light struck Mo Yue's dragon body, but was ultimately blocked by his thick dragon scales, with only some scales cracking.

"As expected of a great demon with a strong dragon bloodline!"

Qi Tianxiong felt a sense of powerlessness. He wished that Tianluo Demon Lord was still alive, because with his supernatural powers, he could definitely capture this transformed dragon directly.

He stared at Mo Yue, then stopped making a move.

Mo Yue's booming voice rang out, "Boy, keep going! I haven't had enough yet! Let me see some blood!"

"Don't be so arrogant!" Qi Tianxiong said sternly.

"Moyue, let's stop here."

Xu Chuan's voice suddenly came.

A hint of disdain flashed in Mo Yue's dark golden vertical pupils, as if to say that even a mid-stage Nascent Soul demon cultivator was nothing special.

Immediately, its entire body shone with a brilliant blue light!

The hundred-foot-long dragon body rapidly blurred and shrank in the dazzling blue light.

The immense demonic power collapsed and condensed inward, and the terrifying dragon might also subsided, but it did not disappear; instead, it became more refined and profound.

In just a few breaths, the eerie blue light that had enveloped the world suddenly receded!
The towering, hundred-foot-long dragon had vanished from its original location.

Instead, there was a burly man who was nearly two meters tall and extremely robust.

At this time, Mo Yue did not have a completely human appearance, but rather appeared as a half-human, half-dragon.

Its head remained a majestic dragon's head, covered with fine, tough, dark blue scales, with two forked, winding dragon horns on its forehead pointing proudly to the sky, like jade or coral.

His long, narrow, and cold, dark golden pupils gleamed with a chilling light as they opened and closed, revealing the ferocity and arrogance of a apex predator in every glance.

Its thick neck connects to a muscular, imposing body, as if cast in bronze and iron.

He was shirtless, his skin a healthy bronze color, but faint, dark blue dragon scale patterns appeared on his shoulders, arms, and chest, sometimes visible and sometimes hidden.

He wore a pair of dark blue trousers formed from his own demonic power and dark patterned combat boots.

He twisted his neck, making a slight "crack" sound, and his dark golden dragon eyes swept over Qi Tianxiong, Xi Daoyun, and Mo Wentian, whose expressions varied.

Finally, the gaze fell on Qi Tianxiong, a subtle, provocative smile curving his lips.

"Now that my Xu family has demonstrated its strength, shouldn't we be qualified to participate in this grand event?"

Qi Tianxiong asked, "What do you intend to do?"

"Let's swear an oath together." Xu Chuan said with a faint smile, "The people from our four forces who came out of the Innate Secret Realm this time shall not attack them for six months unless they provoke us."

Mo Wentian and Xi Daoyun pondered for a few moments, then nodded and said in unison, "I agree."

"it is good."

Qi Tianxiong was outnumbered and outmatched. Although he was a mid-stage Nascent Soul demon cultivator, Tiancang Mansion had two full Nascent Soul cultivators, one half-crippled Nascent Soul cultivator, and one who had briefly regained Nascent Soul cultivation.

If they join forces against the Greedy Wolf Sect, the Greedy Wolf Sect will inevitably suffer heavy losses, and it's hard to say how many of them will be able to return.

Regardless of the circumstances, as long as they can bring back the spoils from this innate secret realm, all forces will flourish within the next one or two decades.

"Secondly, one should not be too ruthless. When dealing with people from other forces or independent cultivators, one should only take 50% of their spoils and then divide them equally among all the families."

Based on strength, my Xu family will choose first, then the Greedy Wolf Sect, then the Mo family, and finally the Heavenly Azure Sect.

Do you have any objections?

Qi Tianxiong glanced at Mo Yue, then at Xu Chuan.

If the two of them are combined, they are indeed slightly better than him alone.

As for Xi Daoyun, he was still recovering from his serious injuries and could only grit his teeth and swallow this bitter pill.

"What if they are unwilling?"

“Then kill them and divide them equally,” Xu Chuan said calmly.

"Okay, I agree."

Qi Tianxiong spoke first, and Mo Wentian and Xi Daoyun exchanged a glance and then nodded.

“There’s nothing left,” Xu Chuan said.

"Alright, but I have a condition: of the five of us, only you can enter the secret realm. If you go in, inform others and win over the other forces."

What else can we gain?

Therefore, Xu Chuan, you are not allowed to enter the secret realm before it closes.

Xu Chuan frowned, but inwardly he breathed a sigh of relief. "I thought you were going to restrict me from revealing this to anyone."

"I have never entered a Primordial Realm before. Such realms are rare and contain many opportunities and fortunes. I plan to go in and explore."

Xi Daoyun agreed, "I agree, Xu Chuan shall not enter this secret realm."

"Although he is only at the Golden Core stage, he has the combat power of a Nascent Soul level when he goes all out. No matter who encounters him in the secret realm, they will all die."

“Senior Mo.” Xu Chuan looked over.

Mo Wentian stroked his beard and smiled faintly, "Fellow Daoist Xu, it's not that I'm not on your side, but what Fellow Daoist Xi and Fellow Daoist Qi said makes sense, so I also disagree with your entry."

"Hey, you old bastards, are you all asking for a beating?"

Seeing that they had all joined forces against Xu Chuan, Mo Yue flew into a rage.

“If Xu Chuan does not agree to this, we will not swear the previous two oaths either.” Qi Tianxiong showed no intention of backing down.

Xu Chuan pondered for a moment, then finally made a decision with a troubled expression, "I agree!"

"Is there anything else to add? If not, let's all take an oath, so we can avoid a war!"

After thinking it over, Qi Tianxiong and the other two decided that it was about time and then began to make an oath.

The same applies to Xu Chuan and Mo Yue.

"There should still be a few days before the secret realm closes, so I'll go and explore other places first."

After saying this, Xu Chuan left alone and flew towards the shore of Taihe Lake.

His departure was naturally intended to allow his divine sense to enter the "Xu Clan's Grotto Heaven" and contact Xu Deling and the others.

If the spatial fluctuations generated by opening the "Xu Family Grotto" are located here, they will inevitably be discovered.

The group didn't understand, but they didn't follow.

Mo Yue was monitoring them from this position, and if they tried to follow him to spy on Xu Chuan, he would immediately contact them telepathically.

This has a much greater range than divine sense.

Even at the Nascent Soul stage, the initial divine sense ranges to about two hundred miles, the middle stage to about three hundred miles, and the later stage to about four hundred miles.

Once the Nascent Soul stage is complete, one can travel five hundred li.

However, with Mo Yue's current strength, the mental connection between spirit beasts can be freely communicated within a range of three thousand miles.

Xu Chuan pretended to wander around, but a wisp of his divine consciousness had already entered the "Xu Clan Cave Heaven" to invite Xu Deling.

Within the Innate Secret Realm.

Xu Deling suddenly sensed a familiar fluctuation, and immediately used his magic power to conceal it, sending a wisp of his divine sense into the "Xu Clan Grotto Heaven".

"Grandfather, you were looking for me?"

Xu Deling's consciousness materialized and looked at Xu Chuan.

"To make a long story short, Mo Yue has already become a transformed great demon. He and I are currently outside the secret realm, and we have reached an agreement with the other three forces."

Those who belong to the four factions must not be targeted, nor can they be attacked within six months.

Secondly, those who are not among the four major powers must either voluntarily hand over half of what they have gained to leave directly, or they will surely die if they do not comply.

And I, your grandfather, was also forbidden from entering this secret realm by them.

Xu Deling smiled slightly, "They are afraid that Grandfather will leak the secret, but they don't know that you have other ways to inform us."

This time, my Xu family is destined to be the biggest beneficiary.

Xu Chuan nodded and smiled faintly, "Now you can forge some ordinary iron tokens, engrave the character 'Xu' on them, and exchange them for 30% of the profits. Those who are unwilling can leave it to them."

"If they don't appreciate your kindness, then they deserve to die. Without your intervention, they would have to hand over at least 70-80% of their assets to satisfy the major Nascent Soul forces."

"Perhaps. You should do it as soon as possible. The more spiritual herbs you have, the better."

“Yes, Grandfather.” Xu Deling remembered something and continued, “By the way, I have some good news to tell you. In the secret realm, our Xu family obtained a mid-grade fourth-order wood-type spiritual vein.”

Three high-grade third-tier spiritual veins, representing water, wood, and metal elements, and one low-grade third-tier earth element spiritual vein.

"That's good." Xu Chuan was delighted. "Now we just have to wait for Ming Xian to return so we can make good use of these spiritual veins."

Afterwards, Xu Deling left "Xu's Grotto Heaven".

She instructed them to rest for a while. Since they couldn't find ordinary iron ore and using high-grade spirit iron would be a waste, they decided to use spirit wood to refine the Xu family token.
