Chapter 154: Activating the Item Left by Yuan
Originally, Huang Qi thought this matter would be easy.
After all, the Immortals of the Human Clan were existences on par with the Ancestor. Any mention of them would surely evoke a response, especially since that Demonic Immortal was one of the most restless among the Human Clan's Immortals.
So, after breaking through the Human Clan's front line, he attempted to chant the name of that Demonic Immortal multiple times.
But the result was somewhat beyond his expectation. Not only did that Demonic Immortal not descend, but not even a shred of attention was cast his way.
Thoughts raced through his mind, but his gaze remained fixed on the Human Clan's Creation Foundation Establishment practitioner below.
He found that as time passed, that Human Clan's sword momentum was continuously strengthening, and her application of power was becoming increasingly skilled.
'A path that grows stronger the more she is pressured...'
Upon realizing this, Huang Qi's offensive began to slow down.
The firelight still scorched the sky and covered the clouds, but it merely suppressed Zhang Yunlu steadily, no longer pushing her into a perilous situation.
He would wear her down first, wait until her true essence was exhausted and the opportunity arrived, then strike her down with a single blow.
...
...
Meanwhile, the Seventh Planet.
The climate of the Seventh Planet was much colder than that of the other two planets, with most of the surface covered by ice and snow.
Even Wang City was built amidst numerous snow-capped mountains.
Fierce winds howled, and blizzards fell like sharp cones, sweeping across this ancient land.
The majestic Wang City stood proudly in the wind and snow, like an unyielding giant. No matter how the wind and snow battered it, they could not shake it in the slightest.
The blizzard covered the city walls, the rooftops, and even the towering spires, transforming the entire Wang City into a massive snow sculpture.
Guards in heavy armor stood on the city walls, nervously watching the distance.
Their figures were tall and robust, much stronger than the Jiajiao Clan members on the other two planets. Besides their dark brown carapaces, they also had a thick layer of fur.
Every guard knew clearly!
The Human Clan's reckoning was fast approaching, and contact had already been lost with various regions.
Buzz~~!
The perpetual fierce winds and blizzards seemed to cease at this moment. Sword light shone brightly, looking down upon the eight directions and six unions, tearing through the dark clouds and pouring down.
"Enemy attack—!"
A pale blue energy barrier rose, enveloping the entire Wang City.
But before that sword light, it was like a fragile soap bubble, shattering without even managing to obstruct it for a moment.
The sturdy city walls and magnificent palaces were torn apart. The majestic Wang City, nestled among the snow-capped mountains, was directly split in two.
Amidst the startled cries, countless members of the Third Jiajiao Clan were engulfed by the world-ending sword that fell from the sky.
Fear, panic, resentment—innumerable intense emotions—but all transformed into hatred and greed for the Human Clan in the next instant!
However, facing Chi Jiuyu, who was at the peak of the Yuanying Stage and the foremost figure among the younger generation of the Immortal Sect, the Third Jiajiao Clan in Wang City, no matter how much hatred they held in their hearts, found it difficult to launch an effective counterattack.
Several more sword lights fell, and the majestic Wang City was almost wiped out, with only the most magnificent palace still standing.
Chi Jiuyu held a simple, ancient green-gold longsword and slowly descended from the air, arriving before the magnificent palace.
With a raised hand and a single sword stroke, the palace dome was directly severed and collapsed to the side.
Before the throne, there was only one figure.
The king of the Third Jiajiao Clan wore a thick fur coat and a crown, staring intently at Chi Jiuyu who descended from the dome.
His subjects, his Royal Palace, his clan, all were destroyed by the sword in the hand of the person before him!
"Third Jiajiao Clan, you have harmed the Human Clan. You are now given the punishment of clan extermination."
She had said it once before, so Chi Jiuyu's words this time were quite concise.
The expression of the Third Jiajiao Clan king did not change. He said coldly, "Do it! Human Clan."
Everything happened too quickly, so the emotions accumulated in his heart were not very strong, allowing him to maintain rationality like the king of the Third Jiajiao Clan.
"You won't beg for mercy?"
"I am the king of the sacred and supreme Maojia Clan. How could I bow down to you, a mere Human Clan?"
"You have quite the backbone."
"Hmph."
The king of the Third Jiajiao Clan scoffed and did not reply.
He had always looked down on those two soft-shelled individuals who lacked any kingly integrity.
"Alright, then I shall satisfy you."
Chi Jiuyu felt it was best to fulfill this wish of his.
Swish!
A sword light swept past, and the king of the Third Jiajiao Clan perished.
Thus, Wang City was left in ruins, with the collapsed snow-capped mountains burying a large part of it, leaving no trace of life within.
This also meant that as long as Chi Jiuyu uploaded the mission data, her mission would be complete.
"I wonder how Xiao Yunlu's progress is," Chi Jiuyu muttered, transforming into a sword light and rushing out of the ruined palace.

Righteous Path Alliance, Highest Council Submarine City.
In a quiet room arranged for Xu Xing.
Xu Xing held the green jade, sitting cross-legged on a futon, while Senior Yuan Jun sat behind him.
After returning from the tavern, Xu Xing was preparing to activate the green jade left by Yuan, and Senior Yuan Jun was curious about the next line of 'Bashan Chushui Qiliangdi,' so she also followed along.
Emm...
At his current level, he didn't need to be too concerned about such matters, so he didn't refuse.
Soon, a clear voice sounded in his ear.
"Bashan Chushui Qiliangdi."
"Ershisan Nian Qizhi Shen," Xu Xing replied.
Hmm?
Senior Yuan Jun's brows furrowed slightly. Listening to the meaning, it should be a person lamenting their difficult situation, being banished to a desolate and harsh land.
But twenty-three years...
It was a bit too short.
Could it be a Mortal?
Although there was some doubt in her heart, Senior Yuan Jun did not interrupt.
After a slight pause, she heard the clear voice continue: "Wo Ji Chou Xin Yu Mingyue."
"Sui Feng Zhi Dao Yelang Xi," Xu Xing continued.
"Rensheng Ruo Zhi Ru Chujian."
"He Shi Qiufeng Bei Hua Shan."
"Lu Cong Jinye Bai."
"Yue Shi Guxiang Ming."
"Jun Zi Guxiang Lai."
"Ying Zhi Guxiang Shi."
Just like that, every time Yuan's voice spoke a line, Xu Xing would follow with a line.
The two went back and forth, matching over ten lines in a row.
Suddenly, they heard the clear voice say.
"Qiufeng Xiaoxiao Chou Sha Ren, Chu Yi Chou, Ru Yi Chou. Zuozhong He Ren, Shui Bu Huai You? Ling Wo Baitou."
Senior Yuan Jun looked at Xu Xing, but found him motionless, not immediately speaking to continue like before.
Hmm?
What's wrong with Dao Brother?
Could it be that he wants me to step away?
Just as she was about to get up and leave, she saw a hint of annoyance appear in Xu Xing's eyes.
"Pass!"
There was nothing he could do, he had truly never heard this line before!
Ah?
Senior Yuan Jun was startled.
And the voice from the green jade did not continue, but switched to another line.
"Jutou Wang Mingyue."
"...Ditou Si Guxiang."
This time, the voice did not continue. A faint light emanated from the green jade.
Within the light, a semi-transparent, semi-solid figure appeared. It was a young man with a somewhat handsome appearance, wearing a black coat, with his eyes tightly closed.
Yuan!
This... seems to be a trace of his Divine Soul?
"Old friend, I wonder how many lines of the poems I left behind you've answered correctly?" Yuan said with a smile on his lips, slowly opening his eyes.
However, when he saw the figure behind Xu Xing, his soul body was so startled it almost dissipated, looking as if he had seen a ghost.
"Senior Yuan Jun?!!"
