The Nullifying Bell reverberated, and the Helian Family’s Third Ancestor gripped a Divine Sword, clashing fiercely with the Immortal Sword of Guanghan Palace’s Li Lingfei. Their Sword Qi shattered space and time, causing mountains to collapse and the sun and moon to lose their light.
The swirling Sword Qi caused Li Lingfei’s dress to flutter violently, her black hair dancing.
The Helian Family’s Third Ancestor was an Ancient Great Power with formidable strength, far surpassing the Fourth Ancestor, Helian Tuo.
Li Lingfei utilized Guanghan Palace’s sect-defending skill, the “Taiyin Mysterious Sword Art,” and its icy Sword Qi froze thousands of miles, but still could not suppress the Helian Family’s Third Ancestor.
The Nullifying Bell shattered the frost, destroying time and space.
The Sword Qi of both sides ran rampant for tens of thousands of feet, wreaking havoc and destruction.
“Lin Shiyu, you are merely the sister of Mount Taihua Goddess and can never rival her. Accept your fate obediently and die.”
The three Ancestors of the Ancient Huangfu Family joined forces to besiege Lin Shiyu, their True Qi surging like a boundless ocean.
These three Ancestors were Great Experts, and while none could defeat Lin Shiyu in a one-on-one fight, their combined might was beyond her ability to handle alone.
“You brat, it seems I must step in personally to teach you a lesson.”
The Fourth Ancestor, Helian Tuo, having seen two elders of the Helian Family battered by Lu Changsheng’s sheer physical strength, felt disgraced and had no choice but to step forward himself to discipline Lu Changsheng.
“…”
Lu Changsheng felt immense pressure.
Was it really necessary for an Ancient Great Power to take him on, someone who was merely an Eighth-Ranked Divine King?
Helian Tuo was a genuine Great Expert and a renowned figure since Ancient Times, his strength far surpassed the combined power of the two Helian Family elders.
It seemed he had no choice but to rely on the Human Sovereign Cauldron to take a gamble.
Lu Changsheng knew the body refined by the “Eternal Indestructible Art” could not withstand Helian Tuo’s attacks. At this point, he could only rely on the Human Sovereign Cauldron, the magical treasure of the Qing Emperor, and see if he could trap Helian Tuo.
With the overwhelming numbers of the two families, the Four Ferocious Beasts Formation roared, five Ancestors joined forces, bringing annihilation upon heaven and earth. Lu Changsheng realized the situation was dire.
Suddenly, the dominant two families’ expressions changed dramatically.
“We’ve been discovered by the natives!”
Helian Tuo, just about to teach Lu Changsheng a lesson, suddenly sensed a tremendous group of powerful presences rapidly approaching and immediately relinquished the idea.
“These natives are unreasonable, let’s leave!”
The two families abandoned their assault on Lu Changsheng’s group; their first thought was to flee.
Su Yun also urged the group, “This is bad—we’ve been discovered by the natives of the Ancient Star. Run quickly.”
Both sides’ experts realized the situation was ominous. Whoever could run, ran, to avoid being hunted down by the natives.
Lu Changsheng looked into the distance, seeing a swarm of native tribesmen, similar to Human Race cultivators but clad in animal skins, flying toward them.
These natives appeared roughly dressed, yet their aura was as fierce as dragons and tigers. Moreover, their sheer numbers dwarfed those of the families; while the two families had brought hundreds of experts, the natives numbered in the tens of thousands!
No wonder the Ancient Huangfu Family and Ancient Helian Family’s immediate reaction was to flee for their lives.
The Helian Family’s Third Ancestor summoned a Void Boat to escape the Ancient Star.
Suddenly, the burly native leader, with a body bent like a bow, hurled a stone spear with all his might.
The sharp stone spear pierced through the air, shattering space and striking the core of the Void Boat!
“This is bad—the Void Boat is destroyed; we can’t enter the Void!”
“We have no choice but to abandon the Void Boat and flee!”
The Ancient Helian Family and Ancient Huangfu Family were utterly terrified, quickly retracting the Void Boat before resorting to Sword Flight to escape.
These natives had damaged the Void Boat with a single stone spear.
Without the Void Boat to teleport into the Void, they could only evade the natives’ pursuit on this Ancient Star.
That stone spear was certainly no ordinary weapon made of common stone.
Lu Changsheng, experienced and well-versed, discerned that an ordinary stone-forged weapon could never possess such penetrative power—it had to be crafted from unique materials on this Ancient Star.
These natives managed to destroy a treasure like the Void Boat with just a single stone spear.
Su Yun, observing the Ancient Helian Family’s loss, understood that using a Void Boat in front of these natives would only lead to the same disastrous fate.
The Ancient Helian Family and Ancient Huangfu Family fled northward, while Guanghan Palace and Mount Taihua’s members ran in the opposite direction.
The natives briefly discussed among themselves, then split into two groups, wielding stone spears and axes, continuing the pursuit, unwilling to spare anyone.
“They’re catching up!”
“The natives of this Ancient Star are ridiculously strong!”
“I finally understand why even the powerful ancestors of the Su Clan are trapped on this Ancient Star!”
The Ancestors of Guanghan Palace and Mount Taihua were already sweating profusely.
These natives appeared highly primitive, yet their physiques were as strong as dragons and tigers, and their stone spears and axes were top-tier magical treasures even in the Immortal Realm.
Moreover, the natives’ overwhelming numbers meant that if surrounded, every individual sent by the Ancient Helian Family and Ancient Huangfu Family would perish.
“What on earth is going on with this Ancient Star?”
Lu Changsheng fled for his life while sinking into deep contemplation.
The ancient, brown-hued stellar body brimmed with mysteries. The formation that trapped the Su Clan’s ancestors, the unnaturally powerful natives, and the strange Demon Race—altogether, these elements led Lu Changsheng to believe this Ancient Star was extraordinary.
“We’ll hold them off—you all go first.”
Lin Shiyu and Li Lingfei, realizing the natives were closing the distance, understood that these natives were accustomed to the Ancient Star’s gravitational pull and the Heaven and Earth Laws. On this star, they struggled to use Sword Flight to escape effectively. Thus, Lin Shiyu and Li Lingfei decided to stay behind and fend off the natives, buying time for the others.
