The Ling Tian Sect was located at the south of the northern desert.
Ever since the Sect Leader, Duan Lingtian, left without returning, the senior officials of the Ling Tian Sect were in low spirits.
Gold Thug and Xiong Quan, who left with Duan Lingtian, did not know whether Duan Lingtian was alive or dead because they did not enter the Lost Stone Forest.
To the Lost Stone Forest, Duan Lingtian's intrusion was undoubtedly a taboo. Emperor Wu had personally issued a gag order so none of Emperor Wu's disciples or followers dared to spread the news.
Under such circumstances, the Ling Tian Sect was much more low-key compared to before.
However, after losing Duan Lingtian, it was like the Ling Tian Sect had lost its backbone. As time went by, the sect's cohesiveness began to weaken.
The first to bear the brunt of this were the grade one weapons craftsmen and alchemists. They had come to the Ling Tian Sect mainly to improve their Weapon Refining Dao and Medicine Refining Dao.
Initially, when they had just arrived at the Ling Tian Sect, they had received pointers from the Sect Leader, Duan Lingtian. They had learned a lot and felt the trip was worth it.
However, with Duan Lingtian's' disappearance ', many grade one weapons craftsmen and alchemists began to have thoughts of leaving the Ling Tian Sect.
If it was not for the fact that they did not want to be the first to leave and bear the infamy of being ungrateful, they would have left long ago.
Whoosh!
Today, the Ling Tian Sect welcomed an uninvited guest.
It was an old man dressed in a gray robe. He was skinny and had a cold expression. His eyes were cloudy, but they were filled with killing intent.
"This … Is this the sect that the Duan Lingtian who killed He 'er is in charge of?"
The gray-robed old man muttered as he looked down at the mountain peak beneath his feet.
"A person from the Outer Land has become the leader of a first-rate force in such a short time. Although it's only a low-level first-rate force, it's still not bad … Unfortunately, you killed someone you shouldn't have killed."
Murderous intent shot out from the gray-robed old man's eyes as he muttered.
"Duan Lingtian, you have ten breaths to appear in front of this old man … Otherwise, this old man will exterminate your entire family!"
When the grey-robed old man spoke, he secretly used Yuan Power. When his voice was transmitted, it was earth-shattering, causing a commotion in the entire Ling Tian Sect.
Within the Ling Tian Peak where the Ling Tian Sect was located, from the Ling Tian Sect's higher-ups to the members of the Ling Tian Sect, all of their expressions changed.
"This voice … It's him!"
In a wooden house on the north side of Ling Tian Peak, a figure flew out of the sky with an extremely unsightly expression.
This was a young man. His expression was ugly, and his eyes were filled with deep hatred. It was hatred that came from the bottom of his heart.
The young man was none other than Lu Bai.
He was the Second Young Master of the Lu Clan in the Northern Mountain. After the Lu Clan was destroyed, he crossed the Ruoshui River and came inland to the Ling Tian Sect.
After that, he stayed in the Ling Tian Sect to cultivate in closed-door cultivation. He only came out a few days ago.
"I have to warn Duan Lingtian."
Lu Bai's figure moved, heading to the south side of Heaven Ascension Peak.
Since Lu Bai had only come out of closed-door cultivation a few days ago, he did not know that Duan Lingtian had gone missing for a long time. It was only when he met Gold Thug and Xiong Quan that he found out that Duan Lingtian was no longer in the Ling Tian Sect.
"You know that person?"
Gold Thug lifted his head and looked at the peak of Ling Tian Peak. Although he could not see the situation clearly, the voice earlier came from there. He did not come with good intentions.
"He's a powerhouse from the Han Clan. Our Lu Clan was annihilated by him … It seems like he has found out about Duan Lingtian's whereabouts. That's why he came to Ling Tian Peak."
Lu Bai said in a deep voice. He could guess many things since the other party came here.
"Lu Clan?"
Gold Thug frowned.
"I know a little about this matter," Xiong Quan said.
Lu Bai nodded.
He had already known about it when Lu Bai came to Ling Tian Sect. He had also learned about the Lu Clan's annihilation from his Young Master. He even knew the reason behind it.
It was all because his Young Master had killed Cheng He, the Guild Master of the Alchemist Guild's Main Guild in the Southern Outer Land of Cloud Continent.
Cheng He himself was nothing.
However, the problem was that Cheng He had an uncle who was a powerhouse from the Han Clan!
The Han Clan was one of the two great ancient clans on Cloud Continent. They were also the two great forces on Cloud Continent. Even Emperor Wu and Demon Emperor powerhouses on Cloud Continent had to be wary of them.
The Han Clan had been around for 10,000 years. It was already a powerful force on Cloud Continent 10,000 years ago. After 10,000 years of inheritance, its foundation had become extremely powerful.
Not many people would believe that the Han Clan did not have a powerhouse like Emperor Wu.
Of course, the Han Clan did not have a powerhouse like Emperor Wu on the surface.
Even so, Emperor Wu powerhouses and Demon Emperor powerhouses on Cloud Continent did not dare to offend the Han Clan. Who knew if a crazy powerhouse would suddenly appear in the Han Clan?
"Don't tell me the Han Clan you mentioned is one of the two great ancient clans on Cloud Continent?"
At this moment, Gold Thug finally regained his senses. His expression changed drastically, and his eyes were filled with fear and uneasiness.
"That's right. It's the Han Clan."
Lu Bai nodded.
"A powerhouse from the Han Clan … How did Master offend him?"
Gold Thug was so scared that he broke out in cold sweat.
After all, the ancient clan, the Han Clan, was too famous. In the entire Cloud Continent, even Emperor Wu powerhouses and Demon Emperor powerhouses could not do anything to it.
Otherwise, as a powerful force on Cloud Continent, it would not have been able to survive until today.
After all, the bird that pokes its head out gets shot. After so many years, there must be many Emperor Wu powerhouses and Demon Emperor powerhouses who did not like it and even attacked it with the intention of destroying it.
Even so, it still managed to survive.
One could only imagine how powerful it was.
"Since it has come to this, we can only face it calmly."
Xiong Quan sighed.
Soon, the peak of Ling Tian Peak was filled with people. A group of high-ranking officials and Ling Tian Sect disciples gathered together. All of them looked at the gray figure in the sky with fear on their faces.
The gray figure was an old man in a gray robe. He was also a powerhouse from the Han Clan, Han Jing.
"There's still three breaths of time left."
Han Jing calmly looked at the crowd before him and said nonchalantly, "After three breaths of time, if Duan Lingtian doesn't come out, I'll annihilate the entire Ling Tian Sect!"
"Of course, before that, all of you can choose to leave the Ling Tian Sect … As long as you leave the Ling Tian Sect, you'll be able to escape death."
Han Jing continued to speak.
The moment Han Jing's words left his mouth, the group of people from the Ling Tian Sect looked at each other. However, no one dared to take the lead.
"I forgot to introduce myself … My name is Han Jing, and I'm from the Ancient Han Clan. Of course, I'm just a nobody in the Han Clan. "
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Han Jing's eyes narrowed. The Origin Energy on his body stirred and caused the Heaven and Earth Energy in the sky to surge. In just a blink of an eye, it formed the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon.
An ancient black dragon's silhouette and two thousand ancient horned dragons' silhouettes gradually appeared.
"Ninth Level Martial Monarch Stage!"
Upon hearing the old man's self-introduction and seeing the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon formed by the old man's Origin Energy stirring the Heaven and Earth Energy, many people's faces changed drastically.
The group of high-ranking officials from the Ling Tian Sect, including the two Vice Sect Leaders, Luo Ping and Zhang San, had a grave expression on their faces.
They did not expect this old man to be a powerhouse from the Han Clan. Moreover, he was a Ninth Level Martial Monarch Stage powerhouse.
A Ninth Level Martial Monarch Stage martial artist's cultivation base was obvious. Naturally, the Profundity that he had comprehended would not be weak.
Disregarding the old man's identity, just his strength alone was enough to render the entire Ling Tian Sect helpless.
Ever since the Sect Leader of Ling Tian Sect, Duan Lingtian, left, the Ling Tian Sect no longer had a powerful powerhouse who could stand in the limelight. The reason the Ling Tian Sect could continue to exist was because of their Sect Leader's reputation.
Of course, it was mostly because the news of Duan Lingtian's disappearance was not known by many people, so it had not spread out.
However, at this moment, someone who was not afraid of Duan Lingtian, the Sect Leader of Ling Tian Sect, had come knocking on their door and announced that he would annihilate the Ling Tian Sect!
"Senior Han, our Sect Leader has not returned since he left the sect some time ago."
Zhang San took a deep breath and looked at Han Jing anxiously.
"Duan Lingtian is not here?"
Han Jing raised his eyebrows and narrowed his eyes. "If that's the case, I'll give all of you another ten breaths of time … After ten breaths of time, I won't let go of anyone who has not betrayed the Ling Tian Sect and stands behind me."
When Han Jing reached the end of his sentence, his eyes were filled with killing intent.
As though it was supporting his words, the milky white flame on his body was entwined by a multi-colored energy in just a blink of an eye. The milky white flame also transformed into a multi-colored flame in just a blink of an eye.
Whoosh!
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, an even more vast Heaven and Earth Energy appeared above Han Jing's head and gathered to form an even more terrifying Heaven and Earth Phenomenon.
In just a blink of an eye, a total of five ancient black dragons' silhouettes and 6,000 ancient horned dragons' silhouettes appeared above Han Jing's head.
This was the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon that Han Jing had not even used his Spirit Weapon.
Once he used his Spirit Weapon and unleashed his full strength, his strength would definitely be more than six ancient black dragons' strength and 6,000 ancient horned dragons' strength.
"How powerful!"
At once, many people from Ling Tian Sect narrowed their eyes in shock.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
Soon after, many people took the lead and flew out to stand behind Han Jing.
These people were the grade one weapons craftsmen and alchemists who had joined Ling Tian Sect previously. They had originally planned to leave Ling Tian Sect, but now that they were forced to do so by a powerhouse like Han Jing, it was only natural for them to do so.
"You … You're all ungrateful!"
Zhang San cursed with a grave expression when he saw that all the grade one weapons craftsmen and alchemists had left except for him and another person.
"Vice Sect Leader Zhang, I advise you to stand with us … The Sect Leader has been missing for more than half a year, and we don't even know if he's coming back."
Some of the people standing behind Han Jing advised Zhang San.
"What?! The Sect Leader is missing? "
At once, most of the elders and disciples from Ling Tian Sect who were present were shocked. It was their first time hearing this news.
Their Ling Tian Sect's Sect Leader had been missing for more than half a year?
At once, these people no longer hesitated and hurriedly stood behind Han Jing.
