When Yuwen Cangtian saw the Seven Thunder Gem Calabash reveal its true form in the void, he panicked and said, "Big Brother, you …"
Yuwen Potian reached out to stop Yuwen Cangtian and said, "Sixth Brother, Third Brother and Seventh Brother are already dead. You and I are the only two Pure Yang cultivators left in the Yuwen clan. Now that the enemy is on the chopping block and I'm at the mercy of the enemy, I don't care if I can fight for a chance of survival for the Yuwen clan!"
Yuwen Cangtian reached out to stop him and said, "Big Brother, as the Patriarch of the Yuwen clan, the legacy and mission of the Yuwen clan for tens of thousands of years are all on you alone. Since you want to sacrifice yourself, I'm also a Pure Yang cultivator, and that's enough!"
Yuwen Potian pressed his shoulder with one hand and Yuwen Cangtian immediately felt as if he was being suppressed by a mountain. He wanted to break free but he couldn't. Although they were both Pure Yang cultivators, there was a difference in their cultivation. It was only now that Yuwen Cangtian clearly felt the real gap between him and Yuwen Potian.
"Big Brother …"
Yuwen Potian shook his head and said seriously, "Sixth Brother, there's no need to say anything. This Seven Thunder Gem Calabash is the legacy of our ancestor, Peng Daoren. It's the number one divine weapon when the world opened. There are many subtle mysteries in it that can only be passed down by the Patriarchs. Not to mention, with your cultivation, how can the power that can be triggered after the sacrifice be compared to mine?"
Yuwen Cangtian still wanted to say something but his body was restrained by Yuwen Potian, who said solemnly, "Sixth Brother, you should know the consequences of the sacrifice. Without the suppression of the Seven Thunder Gem Calabash, our ancestor's will will be exposed to the world. Our Yuwen clan will not be tolerated by the entire cultivation world. Sixth Brother, whether our clan can survive or not depends on you!"
With that, Yuwen Potian's figure slowly rose from the Yuwen clan's residence again. Yuwen Cangtian watched as his brother was about to die because of the forbidden technique. The grief and indignation on his face intensified and he wanted to struggle again. However, he suddenly heard Yuwen Potian's angry rebuke in his mind, "Sixth Brother, do you want the Yuwen clan to perish forever?"
Yuwen Cangtian's body trembled, but he finally stopped struggling. The forbidden technique that imprisoned him also disappeared in an instant.
Yuwen Cangtian looked up and saw that Yuwen Potian was already floating at the bottom of the Seven Thunder Gem Calabash. Even the Longhuai Ancestor seemed to have sensed the danger. Not only did he retract his finger from the lightning screen, he even retreated dozens of yards. He stared at Yuwen Potian with his hands behind his back, and his expression became even more solemn.
Yuwen Potian took a deep breath and suddenly said in a loud voice, "I know that all the great practitioners of the cultivation world have gathered around Shang Mountain today, but can anyone tell the Yuwen clan the reason for this?"
"The Yuwen clan has never done anything to harm the cultivation world since the creation of the heavens. On the contrary, we have always been cautious and have always been kind to others. Every time the calamity of Mara broke out, the Yuwen clan was the first to warn and charge. Since the creation of the heavens until now, the number of cultivators from our clan who have fallen in the battle against the calamity of Mara has reached twelve Pure Yang cultivators, no less than thirty Grand Cultivators, and countless above the Dharma Plane. Why did today's calamity happen?"
"Longhuai Ancestor, the Yuwen clan has also heard of your fame and background. You grew up in the secret land of the East Sea, and the Yuwen clan has nothing to do with you. Why are you forcing the Yuwen clan today?"
"Is it because of the groundless' heaven-opening conspiracy 'that you have mentioned?"
"Do you have any evidence? Do you want to decide the life and death of the thousands of people in the Yuwen clan based on your words alone? "
"All the powerful Daoist friends of the cultivation world, our Yuwen family has fought against the Demon Luo Calamity many times, and we have made some contributions to the cultivation world. Many of the martial sects have also made all kinds of promises and favors. Today, our Yuwen family would like to make a promise first. If you can help our Yuwen family get out of this calamity, all the favors from before will be written off. How about that?"
Even though Yuwen Potian had already made up his mind to sacrifice his body to the Seven Treasures Thunder Calabash in exchange for greater power to repel the Longhuai Ancestor, he still wanted to struggle in the end. In reality, the words of Yuwen Potian weren't without effect.
Just as he had said before, the Longhuai Ancestor was just his own words, and all the great practitioners of divine arts were more or less skeptical. It was just that the words of the Longhuai Ancestor were too shocking, and his strength was truly unseen, so they had been watching from the sidelines when the Longhuai Ancestor attacked the Yuwen clan, not bothering about it at all.
Yuwen Potian's sincere words made many of the great practitioners of divine arts who had come to watch the battle feel sympathy. After all, from the opening of the heavens until now, the foundation of the Yuwen clan fighting against the calamity of Mara alone had saved countless lives. There were even some sects that had inherited the life-saving grace of the Yuwen clan. If it wasn't for the fact that the Longhuai Ancestor had been too domineering previously, there would have been people who would have jumped out to stop him long ago.
But since that was the case, under Yuwen Potian's words, the great practitioners of divine arts hidden in the surrounding void also became restless.
The Longhuai Ancestor had long sensed it, and he laughed coldly. "What a sharp tongue, what a noble Yuwen clan. Your Yuwen clan has always made good calculations. Old Man, let me ask you, why is it that every time the calamity of Mara breaks out, your Yuwen clan is always able to accurately appear at the place where the calamity of Mara occurs? Why is it that only the divine arts and spells of your Yuwen clan are able to restrain the calamity of Mara? "
"All of this is merely because your Yuwen clan is the source of the calamity of Mara eruption for your own sake!"
"Shut up!" Yuwen Potian said angrily. "Your Excellency keeps saying that my Yuwen clan is harboring evil intentions, but it's all just speculation without any evidence. How can I be convinced?"
The Longhuai Ancestor sneered. "There will naturally be evidence after I destroy your Yuwen clan!"
Yuwen Potian's beard and hair stood on end as he scolded loudly, "Your Excellency bullies others with your power. Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you've become a true spirit? Today, you can destroy my Yuwen clan without any reason. Tomorrow, are you going to find a random excuse to destroy another sect? "
"Fellow Dao friends of the cultivation world, this Longhuai Ancestor is scheming to destroy my Yuwen clan. I think this person is the true mastermind behind the calamity of Mara. If he destroys my Yuwen clan, when the calamity of Mara rises again in the future, will there still be anyone in the cultivation world who can charge into the enemy lines?"
Once Yuwen Potian said this, a commotion broke out among the great divine arts practitioners hiding in the surrounding void. Even Lu Ping, who had a deep understanding of the Longhuai Ancestor, couldn't help being more careful.
"Flowery words, just watch as the Old Man destroys your Yuwen clan!"
This time, it was obvious that even the Longhuai Ancestor couldn't sit still. He took a look at the purple bottle gourd that was floating in midair and resolutely rushed towards Yuwen Potian.
Compared to the great divine arts practitioners of various sects who had different thoughts, Lu Ping's attention was placed on Origin Wine Laozu, Xiao Baiyu, and another new true spirit cultivator.
In reality, no matter how impassioned Yuwen Potian was, the only ones who had the ability to stop the Longhuai Ancestor were the three true spirit cultivators in front of him. It was obvious that the three true spirit cultivators had chosen to watch from the sidelines for some reason.
Boom!
The loud noise caused Lu Ping to focus his attention on the sky above Mount Shang once again. The body of the Longhuai Ancestor suddenly swelled up and countless wood flood dragons appeared around him. Each of them was a branch or a root of the Dragon Pagoda Tree. With a full force attack, the entire Seven Treasures Thunder Calabash was pushed back ten feet in midair. The lightning barrier that hung down continued to search inwards, completely exposing the outskirts of the Yuwen clan's encampment. Countless pavilions and buildings, as well as the valley below, collapsed under the screams and cries of numerous cultivators of the Yuwen clan.
