Chapter 814: The Battle Begins, Ancient Immortal Land (6K)
The Ying Family’s people accompanied several members of the Xuan Gui Sea Clan to investigate the surroundings, and finally discovered this suspicious mountain, which bore traces of having been melted by flames.
It was approximately a hundred li away from the Xuan Huang Valley.
Despite this distance, an arrow shot was able to melt the Legal Bodies of the protectors on those from the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace, causing the Spiritual Body Daozi from the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace to fall!
The power of that arrow was truly terrifying!
Perhaps, it belonged to someone who was at least at the peak of Dividing the Spirit.
The two Dividing the Spirit Demon Venerables from the Xuan Gui Sea Clan had grim expressions. After a careful investigation, they found no other traces except for the melted rocks, trees, and so on.
They turned to the Ying Family’s people and said, “Could Fellow Daoist send someone to check if any suspicious individuals have been spotted in the vicinity?”
“Our Xuan Gui Sea Clan does not possess such powerful archery experts. Besides, our Xuan Gui clan specializes in water-based Divine Skills. What does that arrow have to do with our Xuan Gui Sea Clan?”
The Ying Family’s people fell silent for a moment.
That being said,
It was undeniable that the Xuan Gui Sea Clan had sought out the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace’s Spiritual Body Daozi, desiring to attack him; this was done in full public view, an undeniable fact.
Now that the Spiritual Body Daozi from the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace had died because of this incident, regardless of whether the assassin was found or not, this debt had to be borne by the Xuan Gui Sea Clan.

The leading Elder from the Ying Family nodded slightly and said, “Alright, sending someone to investigate this matter is not troublesome. However, regarding the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace, Fellow Daoist should think about how to deal with them.”
Upon hearing this, the Xuan Gui Sea Clan was filled with even greater indignation.
Yet they did not dare linger outside Canggu Immortal City for long and soon followed the Ying Family’s people back into the Immortal City.
After all, their strongest were only two Demon Venerables at the peak of Dividing the Spirit, but the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace had a Master of the Void nearby; they did not know if he had left, and naturally, they dared not make any rash moves.
Elsewhere.
The moment the Mana-infused Legal Body was destroyed, both Marquis Batian of the Grand Yan Immortal Dynasty and Gu Yang of the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace felt it and their expressions changed dramatically. They quickly emerged from their seclusion.
Before they could ask anyone what had happened outside, the Elder responsible for guarding the soul tablets had already come to them, extremely agitated, and upon seeing them, immediately reported in a trembling voice that both Gu Shaokun and the Commandery Princess, like a dream, their soul tablets had shattered!
“Has the soul stele shattered?” Both Gu Yang and Marquis Batian stood stock-still, their bodies trembling, even stumbling backward unsteadily for two steps, nearly collapsing to the ground.
The shattering of the soul tablets meant that their Divine Souls had dissipated and fallen!
Neither could accept this.
“How could the soul tablets shatter just because Shaokun and the ancestor went to Canggu Immortal City? What exactly happened!” Gu Yang’s heart quivered; he seemed to have aged a great deal all at once.
Clenching his teeth, he forcefully propped up his body to prevent himself from collapsing to the ground.
Gu Shaokun was the most talented among the younger generation in their Gu family’s history—without a second! Likewise, he was also the most prodigiously talented in the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace these years.
A Spiritual Body, ah!
If Gu Shaokun could grow up, he might even surpass Taoist Master Hongyue of the Earth Immortal Mansion in talent. Even if the Earth Immortal Mansion currently had the upper hand and was pressing down on the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace, what of it?
Given some time, they would undoubtedly be able to once again suppress the Earth Immortal Mansion below them!
But now—
their Gu Family’s prodigy, the Daozi of the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace, had perished because of a trip to Canggu Immortal City!
How could Gu Yang accept this?
“Ah! Ah! Ah!”
After enduring for a while, Gu Yang could no longer hold back the sorrow in his heart and let out an anguished roar. The mournful roar reverberated throughout the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace, and all the Cultivators there were alarmed.
Meanwhile,
in the Grand Yan Immortal Dynasty.
At Marquis Batian’s sealed city, the skies were changing dramatically at this moment: fierce winds were blowing, dark clouds suddenly enveloped the entire sky, and thunder roared ominously as terrifying Immortal Might erupted from the depths of the Marquis’s mansion, shaking the entire Batian Immortal City.
“Like a Dream!”
Marquis Batian clenched his teeth, suppressing the pain of losing his daughter. But the sound of him grinding his teeth still spread throughout the entire Immortal City, causing countless Cultivators to tremble with fear and apprehension.
What has happened to the Marquis…?
Before long,
the citizens of the Immortal City saw Batian’s garrison troops gather: a total of five thousand soldiers, three fourth-order warships, and seven third-order warships. They departed through the Immortal City’s transfer platform with an overwhelmingly oppressive and grim aura.
Such a commotion caused a stir among the citizens, who discussed what might have happened.
As time slowly passed,
more than two years later,
the news of Gu Shaokun’s fall at Canggu Immortal City finally reached the Cultivation World of Daqian, and the revelation astonished many people and powers.
The one and only Spiritual Body Daozi prodigy of the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace—Gu Shaokun—who didn’t recognize him! He was undoubtedly the beloved treasure of the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace—unequaled.
Didn’t they see how he had caused a disturbance at the Earth Immortal Mansion before and left safely afterward?
One could say that anyone daring to harm Gu Shaokun was essentially punching the entire Ten Thousand Immortal Palace—undeniably incurring deadly enmity.
At the Earth Immortal Mansion,
the current Mansion Lord Fan Xiao was taken aback: “He went to Canggu Immortal City, but ended up dead there? Who is so audacious to have severed the life root of the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace!”
Huang Shitao said, “It is said to be the Xuan Gui Sea Clan. Not long ago, the Xuan Gui Sea Clan also appeared near Canggu Immortal City, and somehow there was a conflict with the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace. As a result, the Xuan Gui Sea Clan killed the Spiritual Body Daozi of the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace, Gu Shaokun.”
“Perhaps, the Xuan Gui Sea Clan does not care or even specifically targeted the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace.”
