Chapter 771: Chapter 771 Mission Progress, Core Objective, Stealth Trip
But Ye Feng unexpectedly heard the system prompt.
“Ding!”
“Star-clan invasion detected, Sect Leader’s seventh-stage mission first task officially commences, wishing you a pleasant enemy-slaying!”
[Note: message from five days ago]
Seeing the line of note in his vision, Ye Feng rubbed his temples and thought to himself that the system was quite considerate, having a feature similar to leaving messages, ensuring he wouldn’t miss important news.
“The invasion of the Starry Sky Mighty Races has begun.”
“So, what’s the situation outside like now?”
Curious, Ye Feng took out the Destiny Treasure Bead, consumed ten wisps of the Power of Destiny, and deduced the current situation.
…
Inside the Misty Sect, there weren’t many cultivators.
Most disciples had gone out to fight the enemy.
Although many disciples were only in the Element Gathering Realm or Spirit Sea Realm, they formed various teams led by Divine Origin Realm experts like Mo Ying and Huo Yunjie.
For safety, there were basically no concerns.
Additionally, the disciples exchanged their Disciple Points in the Sect’s Marketplace for various defense-oriented soft armors and clothes, ensuring that even if they couldn’t defeat the enemy, they wouldn’t be killed.
In the Northern region of the Shenzhou Continent.
Mo Ying led a team to this area.
Not far away.
A large city with millions of people was under siege by millions of Crimson Moon Demons.
Additionally, there were many from the Soul-Devouring Clan and the Prophet Clan.
Massive Meat Mountain Monsters moved about unchecked, invading the city and causing great destruction.
Meanwhile, Celestial Reincarnators lurking within the city backstabbed at a critical moment, seriously injuring the City Lord with the highest cultivation level.
“All of you demons deserve to die!”
The City Lord covered his chest with his hands, continuously spitting blood, with a dagger still stuck in his back.
“Oh, is that so?”
A charming woman wearing a white dress sneered.
She was a Celestial Reincarnator, who had infiltrated the city and become the City Lord’s concubine.
Only today did she suddenly strike.
In coordination with the Meat Mountain Monsters from the Prophet Clan and the Beetle Giants from the Soul-Devouring Clan, they seriously injured the City Lord.
In a short while, they would be able to engulf the city.
Then, the various clans would be able to divide the city’s Spirit Veins, Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and cultivators among themselves, reaping huge profits.
“How dare you act so arrogantly with just the fifth level of Divine Origin Realm, seeking death!” A voice as cold as ice rang out.
Everyone’s expression changed drastically as they looked towards the source of the voice.
High above.
Mo Ying, dressed in black treasure clothes, holding a Spirit Treasure Flying Sword, emanated a fierce aura.
Behind her, stood nearly a hundred disciples.
Most of them held Formation Flags, working together to deploy a large Killing Array that could trap even a fifth level Divine Origin Realm expert to death.
The rest were holding a large banner together.
On it were three characters written with dragon-like and phoenix-like strokes.
Misty Sect!
“It’s the Misty Sect’s disciples!”
“They actually came from the Southern Domain of Shenzhou to aid us, we’re so touched.”
“We’re saved!”
The people of the city were ecstatic.
“Kill them, leave none alive!” The Celestial Reincarnator gestured towards Mo Ying, commanding members of the various Starry Sky Mighty Races to surround and attack.
“Form the array to the south, let the Crimson Flame burn!”
Mo Ying raised her Spirit Sword high, commanding the nearly a hundred Misty Sect disciples behind her. Without any moral considerations, they directly operated the Killing Array at full strength, creating a sea of scorching flames above.
Puff!
The flames, like a dragon, sprang forth.
With a gaping maw, they engulfed and incinerated dozens of experts from the Soul-Devouring and Prophet Clans in searing flames.
“Damn it!”
The Celestial Reincarnator swung her claws fiercely and charged towards Mo Ying not far away, her face twisted with ferocity.
“Ten Thousand Swords Unite!”
Mo Ying formed a hand seal with her left hand and brandished her sword with her right, utilizing the Swift Sword Intent to slash out thousands of sword lights that merged into one.
Rip!
The Celestial Reincarnator was cleaved by a single sword strike and instantly disintegrated. Following that, Mo Ying took out a red gourd, captured the reincarnator’s red soul into it, and promptly sealed the lid.
The remaining demon army was also engulfed by the Crimson Flame Killing Array.
It didn’t take long.
The crisis of the city was resolved.
“Many thanks to the Misty Sect’s Immortal Master for intervening. I am Ji Tianhua, City Lord of Ink Flower City, and I am eternally grateful,” said the City Lord, pulling the dagger from his back and bowing his thanks to Mo Ying.
“Being from Shenzhou, when calamity strikes, assistance comes from all directions.”
Mo Ying left behind just this phrase before leading the disciples of the Misty Sect to other regions, slaying formidable enemies with the utmost speed.
…
This was just a microcosm of Shenzhou.
Ye Feng watched this scene with satisfaction, casually checking the completion progress of the Sect Leader’s seventh stage task.
[Sabotaging the conspiracy of the Starry Sky Mighty Races: 3% progress]
The current progress was not significant.
Ye Feng continued to theorize, discovering that the Misty Sect’s disciples had divided into dozens of teams, spreading out across the Shenzhou Continent.
But, there were too many Starry Sky Mighty Races.
Despite their utmost efforts, only 3% of the task had been completed after several days had passed.
“To smash a conspiracy, merely slaying low-realm cultivators is far from enough.”
“Right… the mastermind!”
“Only by cutting down the mastermind, can the task be completed.”
A light flashed in Ye Feng’s mind.
While his disciples confronted the invaders in Shenzhou, he could take on the masterminds behind the scenes.
“Suspended Mountain, Celestial Clan!”
Ye Feng abruptly looked towards the depths of the sky.
However, he soon realized he was mistaken.
The Starry Sky Mighty Races were attacking Shenzhou, and indeed their origin was the Celestial Clan on the Suspended Mountain, but for him to go to the Suspended Mountain and obliterate the Celestial Clan was clearly impossible.
After becoming a Physical Body Saint, his strength was formidable.
In the Saint Entry Realm, he was almost invincible.
But the Destiny Empress was at the Saint Manifestation Level, and with his current power, even if his defense was invincible, he could not kill her.
The reason boiled down to insufficient combat strength.
“Counterattacking the strongholds of the Starry Sky Mighty Races might just be the key to victory,” Ye Feng mused.
Rip!
He opened a rift in space, entering the starry sky.
While all the Starry Sky Mighty Races joined forces to attack, Shenzhou was in chaos, yet the starry space nearby seemed peaceful.
Swish!
Two figures streaked across the starry sky.
They arrived at the Soul-Devouring Clan’s Ancestral Star.
“Down there is the Soul-Devouring Clan.”
“It is said that this Ancestral Star is a peak-level Lesser Thousand World, and the tenth of the star body that was cut away was done by Sect Master Ye.”
“So, what do we do next?”
“Blow up the Soul-Devouring Clan’s Ancestral Star!”
“Impossible!”
“Why not?”
“Above the Ancestral Star of the Soul-Devouring Clan, only a small part is occupied by the Soul-Devouring Clan, the rest are beings from other races. Sect Master Ye has said we’re to keep them for building the lower realms of Shenzhou.”
“Alright!”
“Just kill all of the Soul-Devouring Clan, take all their treasures, and that should do it.”
“No problem!”
The Ancient Sacred True Dragon and the Star River Quasi-Saint finally ended their discussion, reaching a consensus smoothly.
“Soul-Devouring Clan, die!”
The Ancient Sacred True Dragon took the lead, unleashing Saint Might. A formidable wave of energy instantly engulfed the entire Soul-Devouring Clan’s Ancestral Star.
All the Soul-Devouring Clan members above were wrapped in the energy wave, collapsing in an instant, perishing both in body and path.
The Star River Quasi-Saint was not idle.
He created dozens of powerful avatars, which stormed into all of the Soul-Devouring Clan’s treasuries, seizing everything there was.
Even the coffin the Ancestor of the Soul-Devouring Clan had made for himself was taken away by the Star River Quasi-Saint.
“Damn, platinum underpants!”
“Normally, I wouldn’t even accept such a thing if given to me, but since it’s for free, I’ll take it!”
Deep within the Soul-Devouring Clan’s star core, the Star River Quasi-Saint was looting a mountain of treasures, discovering many odd and curious items and stuffing them all into his bag without distinction.
Ten minutes later.
The Star River Quasi-Saint returned to the surface, finding the Ancient Sacred True Dragon who was distributing Thunder Palace Thunder Talismans.
“Are you done?”
“Done.”
“Good, next, we’re heading to the Prophet Clan.”
The two left many thunder talismans behind and then tore through the void, flying off to another region.
After they left.
The figure of Ye Feng appeared out of thin air.
“The Backstab Duo did well; their actions will definitely attract a lot of enmity, garnering the encirclement of the various Starry Sky Mighty Races, and that will be my time to reap.”
Ye Feng’s smile grew increasingly sinister.
