Everyone who was already shocked by Jiang Yun's ascension to the peak Immortal Emperor level was even more astonished when the na of the first rank appeared in the sky. Many had anticipated that the Eternal Immortal Emperor would claim the top spot, but the surprise ca when Yong Xuan had transcended the realm of Immortal Emperor into a new domain never before reached in history: the "Demi-God" realm.
Lin Jia, who was still reeling from the events, muttered to himself in disbelief, "Will I ever have the chance to reach that level?"
Beside him, Lin Qingyi teased her uncle with a playful smile, "Uncle, where did all your arrogance go? Weren't you always boasting about being the strongest?"
...
...
...
Lin Jia was montarily stunned before laughing and ruffling his niece's hair. "Indeed..."
anwhile, at the Immortal Phoenix Imperial Dynasty, Feng Yi looked at her father with curiosity and asked, "Father... could it be...?"
Feng Yang quickly raised his hand to stop her and replied calmly, "When you reach the Immortal Emperor level, I'll tell you everything."
Feng Yi was startled but nodded quietly, not daring to ask more questions.
At the Dragon Clan, Long Wei shouted in frustration, "Demi-God, huh... It won't be long before I reach that level as well... Hmph!" He then began absorbing the rewards he had received imdiately.
anwhile, the discussions across the entire world of Tianyuan grew louder. "Demi-God? What is that?"
"I don't know, but it must be a level beyond Immortal Emperor!"
Another person spoke up excitedly, "This ans those otherworldly races won't be able to do anything to us anymore!"
"I want to join the Tianyuan Protection Alliance!" Voices echoed across the lands.
" too!"
" too!"
At the entrance to a small world, Mu Shuyuan and two Guardian Elders stood by. One of the Guardian Elders used the power of the void to create a portal, and the three of them stepped through it imdiately.
Mu Shuyuan and the Guardian Elders traveled to a tower shrouded in darkness and chilling cold. mories flooded into Mu Shuyuan's mind—both joyful and sorrowful—about her mother. Suddenly, the Guardian Elder walking beside her spoke up.
"I've found her."
Inside the tower, an Immortal Empress was being held captive, surrounded by eleven Immortal Emperors who were shouting and berating her selfishly.
"Hand over the reward to the clan imdiately!"
"Hurry up! Do you want to send people to hunt down your daughter?"
But the woman remained unfazed by their words. She looked up at the sky and murmured to herself, "Why did you co back...?"
Suddenly, the eleven Immortal Emperors turned to face the approaching surge of power. Their bodies froze solid in an instant. One of the Guardian Elders asked, "Do you want us to kill them?"
Mu Shuyuan shook her head and replied, "No, I'll handle this myself." As she spoke, two of the Immortal Emperors who had escaped the initial freezing began to regain their senses. But before they could react, the void opened in two spots, and two hands shot out, grabbing them by the throat. In the blink of an eye, their bodies turned to ice as well.
The Guardian Elder remarked, "How could peak Immortal Emperors be so weak?" He and the others began to assess the situation around them.
Another Guardian Elder destroyed the formations that had been set up around the area, and Mu Shuyuan quickly rushed to the captive woman—her mother. She hugged her tightly and began to cry, "Mother, I've missed you so much."
Mu Ling, who was initially confused, also started crying and embraced her daughter tightly, "I've missed you so much too."
As the two embraced, a spirit suddenly lunged at them. But Mu Ling smiled slightly and moved her finger. In an instant, hundreds of thousands of jade swords materialized, slashing at the spirit. It scread in agony.
"Aaaargh!" But a powerful aura saved the spirit just in ti.
A voice echoed from the distance, "What is the Mu Clan doing? Where is the food you promised?"
Another voice chid in, "Who are you, and where is the Mu Clan?"
The Guardian Elder observed the spirits and spoke with interest, "Oh, so these are the Spirit Clan. Their bodies look exquisite; they would make excellent energy sources that the Sect Master would surely appreciate."
Mu Ling was startled upon hearing the words of the dark-clad man and turned to ask her daughter, "Who are they?"
Mu Shuyuan answered, "They are the Guardian Elders of my sect."
Mu Ling was puzzled, "Guardian Elders at the peak Immortal Emperor level? And they seem to be stronger than ... And you... wait, how did you beco an Immortal Emperor? It's only been six years, hasn't it?"
Mu Shuyuan smiled and replied, "I'll tell you everything when we return to the sect. I guarantee you'll be shocked, hehe."
But before they could continue talking, 24 Immortal Emperors from the Spirit Clan appeared. The pressure they exerted caused the remaining mbers of the Mu Clan to tremble as they all turned their attention to the sa point. One of the spirits spoke.
"There are only three peak Immortal Emperors and one low-level one? What a waste of my al."
Mu Ling was alard and thought to herself, "Even though I'm strong, I can't fight against 24 Immortal Emperors, especially when I'm not at my full strength."
Mu Ling spoke up, "My child, you need to escape. I'll hold them off."
Mu Shuyuan smiled confidently and replied, "Mother, it's alright. The Sect Master is here."
Mu Ling was stunned. "Huh?" And what she saw next shocked her even more. Suddenly, a formation appeared around the 24 spirits, and in an instant, their cultivation levels dropped by two minor stages.
One spirit spoke up in panic, "What is happening? How could my power decrease so much?"
Another one added in fear, "This is bad! We're trapped in so kind of formation!"
Suddenly, screams filled the air. "Aaaargh! I'm burning! What's happening to my body?"
Another voice shouted, "No... I'm in so much pain! It feels like I'm being burned alive! Aaaaargh!"
One of the spirits tried to rally its comrades. "Use the warp formation to escape quickly! Return to our world!"
They all nodded in agreent and tried to raise their hands to activate the escape formation, but suddenly, all their arms and legs were severed simultaneously.
Screams echoed through the air. "Aaaaargh! I don't want to die!"
"Please let go! I won't devour humans anymore!"
"Do you want to start a war with the Spirit Clan? Release imdiately!"
But there was no response. All the spirits were dealt with in extre pain and agony, their screams continuing to pierce the silence.
The scene in front of her made her freeze in place. Mu Ling watched in shock as the 24 Immortal Emperor spirits were refined, their forms slowly transforming into pills. The haunting screams continued unabated.
She imdiately recognized that this was the work of an Immortal Emperor-level alchemist. Although she had witnessed many cruel thods before, she had never seen spirits being refined into pills. Immortal Emperor-level alchemists were extrely rare, with only seven known in the entire Tianyuan World, all of whom were nearly 100 million years old, barely capable of concocting pills anymore due to their advanced age.
Mu Ling remained in a daze. She knew that spirits could not be hard by physical attacks, no matter how powerful. Battling them was incredibly difficult because they always gathered in groups of at least ten.
Suddenly, Mu Shuyuan knelt down along with the two Guardian Elders and said in unison, "We have found the Sect Master."
At that mont, a man walked out of the void, imdiately storing the 24 pills. His appearance was handso, but his aura was far more terrifying than that of the spirits. Mu Ling was stunned and frozen in place upon seeing Jiang Yun's power and cold deanor.
Jiang Yun glanced at her and asked in a calm voice, "Do you wish to join my Fallen Heaven Blood Sect?"
Mu Ling didn't hesitate for even a mont. She imdiately knelt and spoke with deep respect, "I have found the Sect Master."
Jiang Yun smiled faintly and said, "Good. You all have one hour to settle everything, then et back here."
Mu Ling and Mu Shuyuan responded in unison, "Thank you, Sect Master," before flying off to carry out his orders.
Jiang Yun then instructed the two Guardian Elders beside him, "You two, inspect the area, gather information, and uncover all the secrets of the Mu Clan."
The Samsara clones bowed and vanished instantly.
Jiang Yun sat down and began experinting with the pills he had refined from the spirits, using them to generate energy for his small world.
anwhile, in the main hall of the Mu Clan, Mu Ling entered and rang a bell nine tis to summon all the mbers of the clan. Before long, everyone had gathered, but they were shocked to see that none of the ancestors or clan leaders were present, nor were the spirits who resided with the Mu Clan.
Mu Ling paid no attention to the murmurs of the clan mbers. She snapped her fingers, and suddenly, children and so others were teleported to the courtyard, including those who were severely injured or disabled, as well as 11 frozen bodies.
"That's the clan head..." soone shouted in shock.
Another voice, filled with concern, asked, "Mu Ling, what are you doing?"
But Mu Ling had no intention of answering those questions. She snapped her fingers again, and millions of jade swords materialized, slaughtering those within the Mu Clan who were involved in the atrocities that had occurred, leaving them no chance to beg for rcy. The 11 Immortal Emperors among them were also killed.
Mu Ling spoke with firm resolve, "From now on, the Mu Clan will be a force under the Fallen Heaven Blood Sect, and we will sever all ties with the Spirit World."
The remaining mbers of the Mu Clan were shocked by this declaration, but soon, they began to weep, saying, "We have found our clan leader."
Just then, the Guardian Elder reappeared with three stone tablets inscribed with cultivation techniques and announced, "As a subordinate force of the Fallen Heaven Blood Sect, you must cultivate these techniques. This is a gift for becoming a vassal of the Fallen Heaven Blood Sect. Now, start studying them."
The mbers of the Mu Clan were puzzled by this order, but when they saw Mu Ling begin to learn, they followed her lead. A formation enveloped them all, and soon, the Mu Clan mbers had fully mastered all three techniques. So even broke through to the next realm, so appeared more youthful, and others beca significantly stronger.
A voice exclaid, "These techniques are incredibly powerful. They enhance comprehension and even extend lifespan."
Mu Ling, who had just finished her study, was equally astonished, but she quickly commanded, "Gather all resources, and in 30 minutes, et here. We will relocate."
The mbers of the Mu Clan responded in unison, "Understood," and imdiately began collecting everything they could.
Thirty minutes later, everyone gathered in the courtyard. Mu Ling led them to et Jiang Yun. Upon arriving, both Mu Ling and Mu Shuyuan knelt and reported, "Everything is ready."
Jiang Yun nodded and created a teleportation formation to send everyone to the Immortal Cloud Continent imdiately. He then spoke, "Mu Shuyuan, when you arrive at the sect, take them to the Guardian Elder for further arrangents."
Mu Shuyuan bowed and replied, "Understood," before flying off with all the Mu Clan mbers.
Jiang Yun did not leave with the Mu Clan; he remained behind with the two Guardian Elders. He conjured a table and said, "Co out. You've been watching for quite so ti, haven't you?"
