Terran Guardian - Chapter 4096

Chapter 4071: Annihilation of Bloodlines

“The Wang Clan of Immortals has been wiped out!”

Inside the Six Desires Immortal Sect, Liu Xunhuan’s expression shifted slightly, a look of undisguised shock appearing on his handsome, almost demonic face. Among

the top forces in Jingyun Prefecture,

the Six Desires Immortal Sect and the Wang Clan of Immortals were ranked side-by-side.

In terms of sheer strength,

the Six Desires Immortal Sect might not be much stronger than the Wang Clan.

But now—

the Wang Clan of Immortals had been destroyed.

How could this news not shock Liu Xunhuan?

Below him, a cultivator respectfully reported, “Reporting to the Sect Master, this news is true. The Seven Profound Dao Sect besieged Xuanwang Immortal City and, in less than half a day, wiped out the entire Wang Clan.

Many cultivators witnessed that battle.”

“Was it the Xuantian Sword Master who personally intervened?”

Liu Xunhuan asked.

The cultivator shook his head: “No, it’s said that the one who made the move was an elder of the Seven Profound Dao Sect. This person’s strength is extremely extraordinary; even a reclusive ancestor of the Wang Clan was no match for him.

Besides that person, the Seven Profound Dao Sect also dispatched six half-saints.

That’s why the Wang Clan met its demise!”

These words made all the cultivators present become much more solemn. They

had always

thought that the only powerful figure in the Seven Profound Dao Sect worthy of their utmost respect was the now-famous Xuan Tian Sword Master.

Unexpectedly,

this force had other powerful figures lurking in the shadows.

The ability to kill the Wang Clan’s ancestor was enough to demonstrate that the other party’s strength was not simple.

After all—

the Six Desires Immortal Sect knew something about the Wang Clan’s foundation.

“Wang Chuan is a Fourth Tribulation Half-Saint. I’ve also heard a bit about that reclusive ancestor; he was a Half-Saint who attained enlightenment in ancient times.

Three Immortal Emperor eras ago, he survived the fifth Heavenly Decay, and his strength was quite formidable.

To kill him, one would need at least the strength of a Sixth Tribulation Half-Saint!”

Liu Xunhuan spoke slowly, his tone serious.

“It seems the Seven Profound Dao Sect’s strength is indeed not to be underestimated.

The Taiyi Immortal Sect has given orders, but it’s not our Six Desires Immortal Sect that’s leading the charge.

For the next period, we need to keep a low profile and temporarily refrain from interfering in the Taiyuan Prefecture.

The news of the Wang Clan’s annihilation has spread, and other forces might take action. Our sect has no need to be the first to act!”

Liu Xunhuan was cautious. There was no need to break ties with the Seven Profound Dao Sect, whose strength was unclear.

The Taiyi Immortal Sect giving orders was one thing;

who made the first move was another.

Earlier, Liu Xunhuan had already ordered other cultivators to secretly gather information about the Seven Profound Dao Sect.

Although the Seven Profound Dao Sect was not long established, its reputation was considerable.

Rumor had it

that this force had even gone to Nanyuan Daozhou and annihilated a top-tier ancient force.

Whether this information was true or false, Liu Xunhuan did not know.

But no information could be without basis.

He dared not gamble!

Nor did he want to gamble!

Therefore, when other forces secretly reached into Taiyuan Prefecture, Liu Xunhuan ordered the sect to act cautiously.

While other forces brazenly sent powerful figures into Taiyuan Prefecture to attack the Seven Profound Dao Sect’s assets and resources, the Six Desires Immortal Sect only sent a small number of cultivators in to secretly gain some advantages.

The purpose of doing so was that the Six Desires Immortal Sect did not want to truly confront such forces.

Now,

with the Wang Clan’s destruction,

Liu Xunhuan’s thoughts were further solidified. If

other forces wanted to make a move, then let them make the move; he would not be the first to act.

If other forces do indeed make a move, the Six Desires Sect can act accordingly. If they can wipe out the Seven Profound Dao Sect together, they can at least show their face to the Taiyi Immortal Sect.

If they can’t, they must protect themselves. In any case,

the Star Luo Immortal Domain is so vast that the Taiyi Immortal Sect can’t possibly keep its sights on the Six Desires Immortal Sect.

Some things are fine as long as they can be explained openly.

In any case, the Six Desires Immortal Sect has already made a move. If it succeeds, great; if not, there’s no reason to blame them.

The other elders in the hall exchanged glances and nodded.

This sect leader has always been cautious, and they’re used to it.

But this is for the best.

Caution at least prevents major mistakes.

…

When the Six Desires Immortal Sect decided to remain inactive, the various factions in the Star Luo Immortal Domain reacted differently.

Some forces believed that the Seven Profound Dao Sect’s move was a last-ditch effort.

Other forces were secretly wary of the Seven Profound Dao Sect’s easy annihilation of the Wang Clan.

But most forces did not believe that the Seven Profound Dao Sect had a chance of winning.

The reason is simple.

This wasn’t just a matter of one force targeting the Seven Profound Dao Sect.

In the Star Luo Immortal Realm, all forces affiliated with the Taiyi Immortal Sect were now secretly united. Such a combined force was not to be underestimated.

Currently,

the annihilation of the Wang Clan had naturally caused considerable shock and anger among many forces.

Meanwhile,

Zhong Yu led his sect’s cultivators back to report.

“Reporting to the Sect Master, I have fulfilled my mission. All members of the Wang Clan’s bloodline have been exterminated, not a single one left.

Even if any other bloodlines remained, I used the method of bloodline deduction to find their origins and then wiped them out!”

Inside the Cangyun Immortal Mansion, Zhong Yu reported truthfully.

The Wang Clan had existed in Jingyun Mansion for countless years, and the number of their descendants was astonishing. Such bloodlines were no longer limited to Xuanwang Immortal City.

Normally, finding and wiping out all members of the Wang Clan would be an impossible task.

However—

this was not difficult for Zhong Yu.

The ancient demigods possessed extraordinary abilities. Using the bloodlines of powerful figures like the Wang clan’s ancestor as a starting point, they could deduce the whereabouts of other bloodlines and then easily annihilate them at their source.

If the Wang clan still had any top experts, this would naturally fail.

After all,

if someone attacked a particular bloodline, its powerful members would sense it and intervene.

However, all the top forces of the Wang clan had perished, and while many bloodlines remained scattered, they were at most at the Immortal Emperor level.

For an ancient demigod at the sixth tribulation level, eliminating such cultivators was effortless.

Hearing this, Shen Changqing glanced at the other party and nodded slightly: “You did well!”

To be honest, having Zhong Yu act was a test, both to see if this ancient demigod was truly willing to serve the sect and to assess his strength.

Clearly, Zhong Yu did not disappoint him

in this battle . The Wang Immortal Clan was annihilated, and even their ancestor, suspected to be a Fifth Tribulation Half-Saint, was killed. Not only that , Zhong Yu used his own methods to completely sever the Wang Clan’s bloodline, preventing future troubles. This saved the sect a lot of trouble. After all, leaving things unchecked always leads to future problems. From all perspectives, it’s clear that an ancient Half-Saint is indeed an ancient Half-Saint; beings who have lived for countless years possess formidable abilities. Even when Shen Changqing swept through numerous ancient Half-Saints across six sects, nine dynasties, and thirteen holy lands in Shenfeng Prefecture, the strength of such powerful individuals cannot be denied. At the same time, this also indirectly shows that the sixth-grade Heaven-Crossing Profound Pill wasn’t wasted. Just then, Zhong Yu respectfully placed a storage ring in front of Shen Changqing. “These are all the resources collected from that force after the extermination of the Wang Clan Immortal Clan. Please take a look, Sect Master!” Shen Changqing scanned the contents with his divine sense and saw that there were abundant resources, including immortal herbs, rare and precious materials, and even supreme elixirs. However, Shen Changqing was not particularly moved by these things . To him, most of the Wang Clan Immortal Clan’s resources were of little significance. Therefore, Shen Changqing only took out the top-grade immortal stones, leaving the rest untouched, and handed them directly to Zhong Yu. “You take 30% of these resources, the remaining six elders each take 10%, and the last portion is distributed to the participating disciples. You will handle this matter; there is no need to consult with others.” “Thank you, Sect Master!” Upon hearing this, Zhong Yu’s face lit up with joy. Although he hadn’t tampered with the Wang Clan Immortal Clan’s resources, it didn’t mean he had no intention of doing so. After all, it was the foundation of an ancient immortal clan; how could it be so easily dealt with? Zhong Yu was indeed once the ancestor of the Zhong Clan, but after years of seclusion in the Immortal Court’s forbidden area, his cultivation resources were nearly depleted. Normally, if he lacked cultivation resources, he could simply send a message to the Zhong Clan, and their descendants would send them. But now it was different. The Zhong Clan had been destroyed. It was impossible for Zhong Yu to obtain a large amount of cultivation resources; he could only rely on the Seven Profound Dao Sect’s stipend to survive. Now that Shen Changqing was bestowing resources from the Wang Clan, how could Zhong Yu not be excited? Even if he only received 30%, it was still an astonishing amount. “I always believe in rewarding merit. As long as you work diligently for the sect, the sect will naturally not mistreat you. If there’s nothing else, you may leave now.” Shen Changqing waved his hand, and Zhong Yu immediately bowed and withdrew. “This humble Daoist takes his leave!” … Only after Zhong Yu left did Shen Changqing turn his gaze to the storage ring in his hand. He had moved all the top-grade immortal stones from the Wang Clan into this space. “Five hundred and thirty thousand top-grade immortal stones…it seems the Wang Clan’s resources aren’t that deep, but it’s better than nothing!” Shen Changqing thought to himself. Since breaking through to the Half-Saint realm, the value of top-grade immortal stones had greatly increased. First, the hundredfold increase in time used in the first layer of space meant that what used to consume one high-grade immortal stone a year outside was now directly converted into top-grade immortal stones. Don’t underestimate one top-grade immortal stone a year; for a Half-Saint, who often secluded themselves for hundreds of thousands of years, that’s hundreds of thousands of top-grade immortal stones. Moreover— a Half-Saint undergoes one Heavenly Decay within a single Immortal Emperor era. If Shen Changqing wanted to break through faster, he needed to rely on the first layer of space. A hundred billion years was equivalent to a single Immortal King era outside. Hundreds of millions of top-grade immortal stones—that was an astonishing number. Therefore, what Shen Changqing lacked most now was top-grade immortal stones.
