Black Gauze Archipelago.
Main island council hall.
Twelve Mahayana Phase Heaven Lords, fifty-six Nascent Soul True Monarchs gathered here.
Even in the politically complex and ever-changing Eastern Sea Islands.
Twelve Heaven Lords and fifty-six True Monarchs formed a force that could not be ignored.
Among the 800 minor sects and 3,000 factions of the Left Paths, this force could easily rank within the top ten.
What’s more, the power of Black Gauze Archipelago had completely integrated into the Eastern Sea Islands.
Apart from the three strongest Mahayana Phase Heaven Lords, no one knew that the Black Gauze Archipelago was secretly controlled and driven by the Daode Immortal Sect’s Mu Mengting.
Although the 800 minor sects and 3,000 factions of the Left Paths in the Eastern Sea Islands constantly fought among themselves year-round.
They were exceedingly xenophobic, and if they discovered a mole from the Daode Immortal Sect had infiltrated their territory,
Even if they dared not act against it, they would subconsciously stop their internal strife and instinctively band together.
This would violate the basic strategy of the Daode Immortal Sect in dealing with the Eastern Sea Islands.
For the Daode Immortal Sect, it’s best to have the 800 minor sects and 3,000 factions of the Left Paths of the Eastern Sea in constant chaos and infighting. As for unity? What difference would that make from the Demon Tao, the Ghost Path, or the Demonic Tao?
Mu Mengting secretly controlled the Black Gauze Archipelago, stirring up the situation in the Eastern Sea and incidentally amassing a large amount of resources and wealth with a masterful approach.
Compared with the complex suppression of the Demonic Tao to the north, the Demon Tao to the west, and the Ghost Path to the south by other members of the Immortal Sect, Mu Mengting’s control of Black Gauze Archipelago was definitely a cushy job.
This was also the ‘favoritism’ of the Daode Immortal Sect’s Sect Master towards Mu Mengting.
“In a while, I’ll make a trip to the Central Divine Continent and hand over the gains of these hundred years…”
In the council hall, a Mahayana Phase Heaven Lord seated at the chief position thought to himself.
He looked down at the many Nascent Soul True Monarchs below and the other Heaven Lords seated to his left and right, just about to speak.
Just then.
The complexion of this Mahayana Phase Heaven Lord changed slightly.
He suddenly felt the air around him becoming scorching hot.
“Not good.”
More than ten Mahayana Phase Heaven Lords dramatically changed their expressions, instinctively soaring into the sky, the unique aura of Mahayana Phase cultivators, the oppressive might that looked down upon mortals and dominated rise and fall, suddenly erupted.
However.
The next moment.
A trace of despair appeared on the faces of the dozen Mahayana Phase Heaven Lords.
Because—
They saw a “sun.”
Plummeting towards the Black Gauze Archipelago.
…
Above the clouds.
Lin Yuan withdrew his right hand, glancing down at the Black Gauze Archipelago below.
At this moment, the Black Gauze Archipelago had turned into a sea of fire, with the auras of various True Monarchs and Heaven Lords constantly erupting, only to be quickly extinguished.
“The secret technique of the Wanyang Lineage truly has a terrifying lethal power…”
Seeing this, Lin Yuan nodded slightly.
The ‘sun’ he had just thrown down was a simplified version of the ‘Wanyang Same Heaven,’ a secret technique once activated by the Wanyang Holy Son.
Having crossed hands with the Wanyang Holy Son twice, Lin Yuan had already learned most of the latter’s unique skills with his Against-Heaven’s Understanding.
If it was in the Main World, Lin Yuan certainly would not have casually activated a secret technique related to the Wanyang Lineage.
Because it could easily be recognized by other High-Rank Evolvers, leading to potential ‘copyright’ disputes.
The laws of the Human Alliance in the Main World are sound, providing good protection for many secret techniques and laws. If you’re not a disciple of that lineage and haven’t purchased the secret technique from that lineage, yet you use it.
That’s considered stealing.
No matter in which Star Domain or Star Alliance, it is deemed illegal.
But while traveling between worlds, there is no need to hide.
Especially now that Lin Yuan is a Yang Spirit Avatar, he doesn’t need to be excessively cautious.
“The Black Gauze Archipelago…”
Lin Yuan looked down, ensuring that there were no survivors.
The reason he targeted the Black Gauze Archipelago was mainly for two reasons.
One was to take revenge for himself and Jun Dongjin.
His father, Jun Dongjin, had a Mutated Heavenly Spiritual Root and his talent was unmatched among the younger generation of the Daode Immortal Sect.
But due to his status, when faced with provocation by Mu Mengting, he could only suffer in silence.
Now that he had the opportunity for revenge, Lin Yuan would not let it pass by.
The second reason was that he wanted to spread the Martial Path Evolutionary Path in the Eastern Sea Islands, where he was bound to clash with the Black Gauze Archipelago eventually.
Rather than being obstructed and troubled by the Black Gauze Archipelago in the future, he might as well take decisive action now and eradicate it entirely.
“Hmm?”
“Gather!”
Lin Yuan, gazing down upon the Black Gauze Archipelago, took a deep breath.
In an instant, a massive amount of extremely pure Spiritual Energy surged toward him.
As one of the top forces of the Eastern Sea Islands, the Black Gauze Archipelago naturally had amassed a wealth of treasures and resources.
Especially those gathered for Mu Mengting, which had yet to be handed over and were stored on the island’s treasury, as well as within the storage ring of the leading Mahayana Heavenly Monarch.
Now that the Black Gauze Archipelago had been reduced to a sea of fire, everything was burned clean; those treasures and resources, under the incineration of Taiyang True Fire, turned into the most pure Spiritual Energy and essence.
All of it was devoured by Lin Yuan.
“Quite a lot…”
Having swallowed everything, a smile appeared on Lin Yuan’s face.
The essence and Spiritual Energy he had just consumed was enough to elevate a beginning-stage Mahayana Heavenly Monarch to the middle stage or even the late stage.
…
Daode Immortal Sect.
Mu Mengting stood up, about to report to the Immortal Sect Leader the results of these years of battle and how the Black Gauze Archipelago he controlled had stirred up the situation in the Eastern Sea.
Suddenly.
Mu Mengting’s expression drastically changed.
“How is this possible?!”
Mu Mengting’s complexion looked terrible.
He even carried a trace of panic.
Because he noticed that the life tablets of the group of Mahayana Heavenly Monarchs and Nascent Soul True Monarchs in the Black Gauze Archipelago had shattered simultaneously.
What did this mean?
It meant that all the Mahayana Heavenly Monarchs and Nascent Soul True Monarchs had fallen.
And their time of death was nearly identical.
In addition.
It also meant that the Black Gauze Archipelago, which he had painstakingly managed, was no longer in existence. If even the Mahayana Heavenly Monarchs and Nascent Soul True Monarchs had perished, what about the other cultivators and personnel?
