"Heh, well done!"
Shangguan Lintian smiled slightly, patting his son Shangguan Qingcang's shoulder. "You've worked hard all these years, calling this waste 'Father Emperor' for eight thousand years."
"It's nothing, it's all for the grand plan of the Slaughter God Hall!"
Shangguan Qingcang shook his head slightly. Over the years, he had simultaneously played the role of the Third Prince of the Primordial Holy Kingdom and the mysterious Young Hall Master of the Slaughter God Hall. Naturally, his cultivation realm far surpassed that of Cang Qiong Qitian.
Currently, Shangguan Qingcang had reached the peak of the Ninth Heaven of the Star Realm, far stronger than Cang Qiong Qitian.
After all… he was more than two thousand years younger than Shangguan Qingcang!
"Convey my order, immediately pacify and take over the Primordial Holy Kingdom!"
"Anyone who dares to rebel, show no mercy!!"
Shangguan Lintian's expression turned solemn as he commanded his subordinates behind him. Although the Primordial Holy Kingdom was far inferior to their Slaughter God Hall, it was a super-grade holy kingdom nonetheless. Its internal forces were complex, and assimilation would not be a task for a single day.
At the same time, outside the Primordial Holy City.
*Whoosh~*
A piercing sound echoed through the air, and in the next moment, streaks of figures appeared in the field. Their numbers were at least a hundred thousand strong. This group was none other than the powerful experts of the Dragon race, who had been dispatched on command.
The leader was none other than the strongest ancestor, Ao Yuanba. Currently, Ao Yuanba's strength had advanced to the Second Heaven of the Blazing Sun realm. Behind him stood two other figures. One was Ao Yuanba's nephew, and the other was an ancestor of the Dragon race second only to Ao Yuanba.
Three experts in the Blazing Sun realm. Furthermore, Ao Yuanba held the trump card given to him by Ye Xuan, which was sufficient to contend against experts in the Fifth Heaven of the Blazing Sun realm. This formation was a simplified version of the Dragon race's protective formation, gifted by Ye Xuan, with the greatest advantage being its portability.
"Ancestor Yuanba, a civil war broke out in the Primordial Holy Kingdom, and the Slaughter God Hall suddenly attacked. They are now working with the Third Prince from the inside, and the Primordial Holy Kingdom has been destroyed."
After speaking, the Dragon race expert gulped, his throat dry. This matter involved the Slaughter God Hall, and it was impossible for him not to be apprehensive.
After all!
The Slaughter God Hall was one of the four supreme overlords of the Endless Territories. In their prime, the Dragon race naturally had no fear, but now, the Dragon race was not what it used to be. Back then, during the Dragon race's most prosperous period, they had unified the entire Endless Territories.
"Ancestor Yuanba, should we still attack the Primordial Holy City!?"
At this moment, a Dragon race ancestor frowned and asked Ao Yuanba for his opinion.
"Of course, we must attack!"
Ao Yuanba did not hesitate, taking a deep breath. "This is the first major command from the Alliance Leader, and the Alliance Leader also instructed us to establish the Yanhuang Holy Kingdom. Even if the Slaughter God Hall attacks, we must fight for it!"
"Moreover, with the Alliance Leader's trump card, we may not necessarily lose."
"Listen to my command!"
Ao Yuanba took a deep breath, then formed a hand seal. In the next moment, ten billion high-grade holy crystals shattered, transforming into pure energy that flowed into the formation. "This formation can only last for three hours. The battle must be concluded within three hours!"
"Attack!!"
As the voice fell, the hundred thousand Dragon race experts surged their energy and channeled it all into Ancestor Yuanba. If they wanted to contend against the Slaughter God Hall, there was no other way.
"The Primordial Holy Kingdom, our Dragon race claims it!"
A powerful voice echoed. Ao Yuanba moved forward, leading the hundred thousand supreme experts of the Dragon race to hover above the Primordial Holy City. Countless forces looked up at the terrifying, sky-shading aura, their expressions changing drastically.
"What, it's the reclusive Dragon race!"
"Good heavens… are those dragons crazy? Can't they see it's the Slaughter God Hall attacking?"
"Damn it, does the Dragon race still think it's the endless years ago? How can the current Dragon race be a match for the Slaughter God Hall!!"
"Such boldness, the Dragon race is still as powerful as before~~"
However, with the sudden appearance of the Dragon race, Shangguan Lintian narrowed his eyes, a fierce glint flashing within them. He swiftly appeared before the ten-thousand-strong army of the Dragon race and declared, "Dragon race, you are indeed too audacious!"
"Ao Yuanba, say that again to this Hall Master!"
The aura of the Ninth Heaven of the Radiant Moon realm permeated the void. Countless forces in the Primordial Holy City changed their expressions. Damn it, the Hall Master of the Slaughter God Hall himself had arrived. This was going to be a major incident!
In front of the Four Seas Trading Company, Xia Wanjin gazed at the two groups of people in the sky. "The Dragon race openly declaring war on the Slaughter God Hall is not a wise decision."
"However… this Dragon race seems to have some connection with Ye Xuan. Could it be that the mastermind behind this Dragon race is that Ye Xuan?"
Contemplating this, Xia Wanjin's expression became solemn!
If it were an ordinary person, he wouldn't be this concerned, but if it were Ye Xuan, then contending against the Slaughter God Hall was not impossible.
"It seems this matter needs to be reported to Big Brother."
Xia Wanjin looked at the numerous experts in the sky. The current situation had exceeded his ability to handle.
"Shangguan Lintian, do you truly believe your Slaughter God Hall has absolute power over the Endless Territories?"
Ao Yuanba glanced at Shangguan Lintian. The Slaughter God Hall had massacred many of their Dragon race experts over the years. Old grudges and new hatred would be settled today.
With a palm strike from a distance, an unstoppable attack instantly sent Shangguan Lintian flying. With a thunderous roar, Shangguan Lintian turned into a streak of light and crashed onto the ground. Within a radius of a thousand zhang, chaotic energy surged through the void.
"Father!"
Shangguan Qingcang rushed forward immediately. Shangguan Lintian spat out a mouthful of blood, his head tilted back in disbelief as he looked at Ao Yuanba in the sky. "Ao Yuanba, you… are already in the Blazing Sun realm, how is this possible!!"
Shangguan Lintian knew very well that even if Ao Yuanba's cultivation was stronger than his, it wouldn't be by much. How had he ascended to the Blazing Sun realm so quickly?
"What!!"
Shangguan Qingcang exclaimed in disbelief upon hearing his father's words as he looked at Ao Yuanba in the sky. "That strongest ancestor of the Dragon race has already stepped into the Blazing Sun realm!"
"Dragon race!"
"You are truly too audacious to declare war on my Slaughter God Hall~~"
*Swish swish~*
Streaks of figures appeared in the field. Following them were experts all in the Blazing Sun realm. The leader among them, Shangguan Huanyu, narrowed his eyes. "Is your Dragon race prepared?"
*Boom!!!*
In an instant, Shangguan Huanyu's aura surged, and the pressure of the Fifth Heaven of the Blazing Sun realm permeated the heavens.
"Hahaha, Fifth Heaven of the Blazing Sun realm, is this the strongest power your Slaughter God Hall can muster for this expedition? Nothing more."
At this moment, Ao Yuanba's aura of the Second Heaven of the Blazing Sun realm swept out. "[Protective Formation · Activate]!"
Holding nothing back, Ao Yuanba directly activated the simplified version of the protective formation. In an instant, ancient and powerful dragon might swept across the sky, and a ten-thousand-zhang ancestral dragon phantom appeared in the void.
"This is… the Dragon race's protective formation, how is this possible!"
Shangguan Lintian felt the familiar formation, his entire being filled with shock. "Didn't they say the Dragon race's protective formation could not leave their ancestral land? Moreover… their protective formation seems to have been ineffective for tens of thousands of years."
"I said, the Primordial Holy Kingdom belongs to my Dragon race."
Ao Yuanba would not delay. He raised a palm and struck towards Shangguan Huanyu, who was in the Fifth Heaven of the Blazing Sun realm. The ten-thousand-zhang ancestral dragon then followed with a dragon claw strike towards Shangguan Huanyu. At this moment, heaven and earth changed color, and Shangguan Huanyu's expression turned grim. "Everyone, together!!"
Clearly, the terrifying pressure made even Shangguan Huanyu feel an extremely intense sense of danger. Thus, ten Blazing Sun realm experts of the Slaughter God Hall unleashed their heaven-shattering attacks towards the ancestral dragon's claw.
