Chapter 506 The Tianyuan Continent is in an uproar
With the deaths of the two Nascent Soul cultivators, the remaining Wanbaoge cultivators completely collapsed, and morale plummeted.
Six Nascent Soul Peak cultivators were trapped and killed by the Nascent Soul Elders of the Star Palace using an array, none of them escaping.
More than a dozen ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators were strangled to death by the Golden Core disciples using a sword formation, leaving no trace of their bodies.
Nearly a hundred Golden Core cultivators were torn to pieces by eighty demonic beasts; it was a gruesome sight.
Half an hour later, the battle was completely over.
All the personnel that Wanbaoge mobilized this time
completely annihilated!
The white mist slowly dissipated.
The battlefield was now a scene of utter devastation.
The Myriad Realms Dragon Warship still hovered in mid-air, but its deck was completely empty, with not a single person in sight.
Below, the earth was littered with corpses and rivers of blood.
Most of the corpses were mangled; some had been shredded into mincemeat by the sword formation, while others had been devoured beyond recognition by demonic beasts, a truly gruesome sight.
The cultivators watching from afar were all dumbfounded.
They stared blankly at the battlefield, at the lone warship, at the scattered fragments of Wanbaoge clothing, and for a moment they were speechless.
"Is it over?"
"Everyone from Wanbaoge is dead?"
"Two Nascent Soul cultivators, six peak Nascent Soul cultivators, a dozen or so Nascent Soul cultivators, and nearly a hundred Golden Core cultivators..."
Not a single one left?
"Star Palace, did they win?"
After a deathly silence came a deafening uproar!
"My God! The Star Palace wiped out the entire Wanbao Pavilion's forces!"
"Two Nascent Soul cultivators! And you killed them without warning!"
"And what about those demonic beasts? When did the Star Palace tame so many powerful demonic beasts?"
"It's Shen Rugo! It must be Shen Rugo's doing!"
"That little girl, not even thirteen years old, actually possesses such extraordinary abilities?!"
Discussions rose and fell, and just then, the protective array of the Star Palace was activated once again.
Shen Rugo slowly walked out from the core of the formation and waved her small hand, "Everyone, go in."
Then, a battle flag was thrown out.
The array flags transformed into a stream of light, enveloping the massive Myriad Realms Dragon Warship and slowly dragging it into the mountain-protecting array.
White mist rose again, enveloping the entire Starry Sky Mountain Range.
When the white mist completely dissipated, the corpses, bloodstains, and even the huge warship on the battlefield all vanished without a trace.
All that remained was an empty sky and a group of dumbfounded onlookers in the distance.
The news spread like wildfire throughout the entire Northwest region.
The two guardians of Wanbaoge led hundreds of elite cultivators in a massive attack on Xingchen Palace.
As a result, the entire army was wiped out, with not a single survivor!
The terrifying strength displayed by the Star Palace in this battle has instilled fear in all sects.
Two Nascent Soul cultivators, thirty Core Formation cultivators, two hundred Golden Core cultivators, eighty ferocious demonic beasts, and that terrifyingly complex array.
This is no insignificant sect; it is clearly the rising new overlord of the Northwest Region!
Lingxiao Pavilion.
"The Nascent Soul cultivators have perished; Xuan Tian and Xuan Yue of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion were killed by the Star Palace?"
"Not only were there two Nascent Soul cultivators, but also six peak Nascent Soul cultivators, a dozen ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators, and a hundred Golden Core cultivators—not a single one was left?"
Everyone in the entire Lingxiao Pavilion was stunned.
Even the sect leader, Ling Xiaozhi, looked at the communication talisman with disbelief.
But he knew in his heart that the news was absolutely true, because the messenger was Lingxiao Pavilion's top spy, a Nascent Soul cultivator, and the news could not possibly be wrong.
"This is impossible!"
"That's absolutely impossible!"
"Just what is the background of this Star Palace?"
The people in Lingxiao Pavilion immediately started discussing among themselves.
Almost at the same moment, Misty Peak.
The summit of the main peak, shrouded in clouds and mist.
"The two Nascent Soul cultivators from Wanbaoge, Xuan Tian and Xuan Yue, have perished? Killed by the Star Palace?"
"Not a single Wanbaoge cultivator who went to encircle and annihilate them survived?"
Several white-bearded old men gasped in shock.
Tianji Mansion.
The Lord of the Mansion, the Old Man of Heavenly Secrets, stood before the Heavenly Secrets Compass, his white beard moving without wind.
The compass needle spun wildly, finally stopping at the "Kill, Break, Wolf" star position, and the entire compass glowed with a blinding blood-red light.
"The Killing Star appears, the Broken Army Star surges into the Palace..."
The old man of the heavens murmured, "The fortune of Wanbaoge is broken."
"Master!"
A middle-aged cultivator rushed in, his face deathly pale. "I just received news that all the branches of Wanbaoge in the Northwest Region have withdrawn! After Jiang Ming, the branch manager, sent the message back to headquarters, he and all the core members disappeared without a trace!"
"They've withdrawn?"
The old man's pupils suddenly contracted. "That old ghost Ling Tian actually managed to swallow this insult. Just what is the background of the Star Palace?"
The old man remained silent for a long time before slowly sitting back down on his prayer mat.
"Pass down the order: all disciples of the Heavenly Mystery Palace who are outside the palace are forbidden from making enemies of the Star Palace."
Xuantian Sect, Hundred Flowers Valley, Luoyun Sect, Penglai Sect...
Without exception, all the top ten sects on the Tianyuan Continent fell into a deathly silence after receiving the news, followed by a frantic investigation, secret discussions, and deductions.
The entire Tianyuan Continent was like a lake surface tossed with a giant rock, instantly creating ripples.
Then there's the headquarters of Wanbaoge, the Zhenhun Hall.
The disciple guarding the spirit tablets swept the dust in the hall as usual.
The work at the Soul Suppression Hall is very leisurely; apart from recording the status of the soul tablets every day, there is almost nothing to do.
He walked to the innermost layer, where the soul tablet of the God-Transforming Ancestor was enshrined.
The Xuan Tian and Xuan Yue soul tablets are placed side by side, both made of ten-thousand-year-old warm jade, gleaming with a lustrous sheen.
He took out a soft cloth and was about to wipe it when his movements suddenly froze.
There seem to be cracks on those two warm jade soul tablets.
He rubbed his eyes and leaned closer to take a closer look.
It's not just a possibility, it's a fact.
The cracks spread rapidly, instantly covering the entire jade pendant like a spider web. The jade pendant's luster quickly dimmed, turning into a lifeless grayish-white.
"No, it's impossible..."
He reached out to touch it, but then abruptly pulled his hand back.
"Click."
There was a crisp sound.
The spirit tablet of the Mysterious Moon Ancestor shattered upon impact, breaking into more than a dozen pieces that scattered across the offering table.
A moment later, there was another "click".
The spirit tablet of the Xuan Tian Ancestor was also shattered.
The disciple stared blankly at the scene before him, his mind completely blank.
A few breaths later, he let out a heart-wrenching scream: "Oh no! The soul tablets of Ancestors Xuan Tian and Xuan Yue have shattered! Someone, come quick!"
He scrambled out of the Soul Suppressing Hall, shouting wildly as he ran.
This shout resounded through the sky and spread throughout the entire Wanbaoge headquarters.
The news spread as quickly as a plague.
The elder who was refining pills was thrown into chaos, and the pill furnace exploded. Half of the pill room collapsed. The guardian who was in seclusion had his aura disordered and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. The deacons who were holding a meeting all stood up abruptly, and the tables and chairs were overturned.
The entire Wanbaoge headquarters was in complete chaos.
Inside the closed Treasure Hall, Ling Tian was listening to Elder Ling Qing report on the situation in the Northwest Region.
"Jiang Ming's message has been sent back. Protectors Xuan Tian and Xuan Yue have led a large force to the Star Palace. Good news will arrive in no more than half a day. The little Star Palace..."
As Ling Qing spoke excitedly, the others nodded in agreement, saying, "With the arrival of two Nascent Soul stage elders, the Star Palace will surely be destroyed. However, we can't let them get away with it so easily..."
