Chapter 3240: Kill on Tianmu Island

Tiamu Island, a sprawling estate.

A sturdy old man in a golden robe was conversing with Bian Hong in a blue stone pavilion. The old man's vertical eye emanated a grey light.

Bian Dong had recently advanced to the late Integration stage.

The Tiamu Clan publicly had five Integration cultivators, but in reality, they possessed eight; three of these were hidden forces.

Four Integration cultivators were on Tiamu Island, while the other four were stationed on four large islands, guarding against the Witch Clan.

The Witch Clan targeted the Tiamu Clan, and the Tiamu Clan could neither afford to provoke them nor dared to underestimate them.

“We are currently sending people to search for Kan Yuan Jade, but we haven't received any news yet,” Bian Hong said softly.

If they could refine a World-Breaking Plate, they would be able to travel to other realms in search of opportunities, or exchange it with major clans for spiritual treasures to reach the Mahayana stage. Of course, a single Qiankun Glazed Stone would not be enough to acquire such treasures.

“I plan to travel to Xuanguang Continent to seek opportunities. I heard that Celestial Venerable Xuanling's dao field last appeared on Xuanguang Continent. Perhaps there are spiritual elixirs that can help one reach the Mahayana stage, and I might even find Kan Yuan Jade there.” Bian Dong's face showed a look of longing as he finished speaking.

“Even if Celestial Venerable Xuanling's dao field appears only once every few tens of thousands of years, it's been over 500,000 years. Are there still so many heavenly treasures in the dao field that would drive Mahayana cultivators wild?” Bian Hong asked, puzzled.

Whenever Celestial Venerable Xuanling's dao field appeared, it would cause a bloodbath, with Mahayana cultivators fighting tooth and nail to enter and seek treasures.

The Three Great Clans and the Ye Family had long legacies and possessed spiritual elixirs for advancing to the Mahayana stage. However, cultivators from minor clans or rogue cultivators who wished to reach the Mahayana stage would mostly consider Celestial Venerable Xuanling's dao field.

Mu Feng of the Blood Whale Clan traveled to Qianyuan Continent, where Celestial Venerable Xuanling's dao field coincidentally appeared. He entered the dao field to search for treasures and thus obtained an opportunity for the Mahayana stage. Besides elixirs for advancing to Mahayana, Celestial Venerable Xuanling's dao field also contained many significant treasures, said to be left behind by Mahayana cultivators who died within the dao field.

“That place might not actually be Celestial Venerable Xuanling's dao field. I heard from Senior Mu that it might be a spatial-type Profound Heaven Treasure. How large could a dao field be? At a Mahayana cultivator's escape velocity, they could traverse it in no time. Yet, Mahayana cultivators have flown at full speed for several months without reaching its end,” Bian Dong explained.

“A spatial-type Profound Heaven Treasure?” Bian Hong exclaimed, surprised.

“There's also a theory that it's a spatial immortal artifact dropped from the Immortal Realm. Some speculate it's an ownerless minor world. The Stone Cocoon Clan, for example, discovered a nascent minor world rich in cultivation resources, which allowed them to develop rapidly and firmly establish themselves as one of Xuanyang Realm's Three Great Clans after hundreds of thousands of years of growth.” Bian Dong's face showed a look of longing.

For a clan or power, discovering a secret realm rich in cultivation resources is quite good, but compared to a minor world, a secret realm is insignificant.

Some cultivators, due to great fortune, acquire powerful legacies, leading to rapid advancement and widespread renown. For a clan, great fortune might mean obtaining a major treasure, such as the Essence Fire Clan of Xuanling Continent. Not only did they acquire a page of the Heavenly Void Jade Book, which recorded various powerful secret techniques, but they also seized the opportunity to rise after the annihilation of the Void Heaven Clan.

Had the Void Heaven Clan not been annihilated, it would have been difficult for the Essence Fire Clan to rise, even with the Heavenly Void Jade Book recording powerful secret techniques.

The Stone Cocoon Clan was originally inconspicuous on Qianling Continent, merely a minor clan. They unexpectedly discovered a nascent minor world and also produced a prodigy like Stone Cocoon Divine Lord, which led to their powerful rise.

Obtaining a secret realm, a powerful legacy, or a Heavenly Void Jade Book recording potent cultivation methods and secret techniques might allow a force or clan to develop and grow, even producing Mahayana cultivators. However, gaining a minor world rich in cultivation resources can enable a minor clan to soar to prominence, with the Stone Cocoon Clan being a prime example.

“A nascent minor world! If only our Tiamu Clan could acquire one,” Bian Hong exclaimed, his face full of envy.

“I heard that this nascent minor world was originally discovered by a subordinate clan of the Yinmei Clan. However, word leaked out, and the Stone Cocoon Clan eliminated those who knew, monopolizing the minor world. This incident is partly why the Yinmei Clan and the Stone Cocoon Clan became sworn enemies.” Bian Dong said slowly, then, as if realizing something, added, “Our seizure of the Qiankun Glazed Stone from the human cultivators was also a stroke of fortune.”

Bian Hong nodded, and just as he was about to speak, he seemed to sense something and took a blue-glowing communication disc from his embrace. He cast a spell into it, and a respectful female voice rang out: “Elder Bian, we have found the Kan Yuan Jade.”

“What? You've found Kan Yuan Jade? Come immediately and report to me in person,” Bian Hong ordered, his expression excited.

“Yes, Elder Bian.”

Putting away the communication disc, Bian Hong's expression remained excited.

A golden-glowing flying boat approached from afar and stopped above the estate. A slender man in a green robe stood on the flying boat; judging by his aura, he was only at the Void Refinement stage.

Bian Dong's vertical eye lit up with a golden light. Looking towards the golden flying boat, his vertical eye shot out a golden beam directly at the green-robed man. The incident happened so suddenly that the green-robed man had no time to react. Struck by the golden light, he let out a miserable shriek, and his body visibly melted into a pool of blood, his soul unable to escape. Seeing this, Bian Hong's face changed drastically.

Countless blue water vapor emerged high in the sky, forming a young man in a blue shirt with ordinary features, who was none other than Wang Changsheng in disguise.

Bian Dong, who possessed pupil techniques, had discovered Wang Changsheng.

Wang Changsheng had already infiltrated Tiamu Island; that was enough.

“A human cultivator, late Integration stage!” Bian Dong's face darkened. A human cultivator suddenly attacking their home was indeed quite strange.

“Seeking death! How arrogant to dare trespass onto our Tiamu Island alone!” Bian Hong's expression turned cold, and he immediately activated his Dharma Idol.

At the same time, alarms blared across Tiamu Island, and numerous Tiamu Clan cultivators rushed towards their location. Two streaks of light moved exceptionally fast, revealing a plump young woman in a white dress and a tall, grey-robed old man, both at the early Integration stage of cultivation.

Without a word, Wang Changsheng summoned the Soul-Shaking Gong and cast a spell into it.

A loud gong resonance echoed throughout Tiamu Island. Cultivators below the Integration stage shrieked and collapsed, while Tiamu Clan cultivators flying in the air plummeted from the sky. Spirit birds, spirit beasts, and spirit insects were no exception.

Upon hearing this sound, Bian Hong felt his soul tearing apart, and his features contorted.

A golden light flashed, and a shimmering miniature golden mountain appeared, instantly expanding into a towering, hazy golden peak that slammed towards Bian Dong and Bian Hong.

At the same time, a rapid zither melody rang out, and a hazy blue sound wave shot out from the ground, swiftly passing through the bodies of the young woman in the white dress and the grey-robed old man. They simultaneously shrieked and rapidly plummeted towards the ground.

A flash of spiritual light, and as soon as their two miniature nascent souls left their bodies, a colossal blue palm covered in countless profound musical notes struck them. The two miniature nascent souls shrieked and dissolved into points of spiritual light, vanishing.

It was Wang Ruyan who made the move.

Given her late Integration stage cultivation and the surprise attack, the two early Integration stage cultivators were instantly killed. The sound wave attack directly shattered their internal organs. They had used their life-substituting treasures during the last racial war and currently lacked high-grade replacements, leading to their immediate deaths.

As soon as Wang Ruyan appeared, she immediately summoned her Golden Lotus Zither. Her ten fingers swept across it, sending waves of blue sound sweeping towards the buildings. Protected by restrictions, some Tiamu Clan cultivators managed to escape harm. Additionally, there were also teleportation formations on Tiamu Island.
