After parting ways with Yan Zhaoge, Fu Enshu headed west, hurrying back to the clan.
However, when she had traversed the Earth Domain and arrived at the easternmost East Heaven Region of the Heaven Domain, making contact with the Broad Creed Mountain martial practitioners here, she received a shocking piece of news.
The Sacred Sun Clan headed north, invading Broad Creed Mountain in the Central Heaven Region.
Fu Enshu had a bad premonition in her heart.
Infinite Boundless Mountain and Jade Sea City currently did not have any Sacred Artifacts or Martial Saints, not having the strength to send reinforcements to the distant Heaven Domain.
Turbid Wave Pavilion had always been neutral, but under such circumstances, they would most likely intervene. Even if Yan Zhaoge had not come looking for Shen Li, he might still be obstructed by Turbid Wave Pavilion.
Therefore, the Sacred Sun Clan could only single-handedly attack Broad Creed Mountain. While they grasped the Extreme Yin Crown and the Heaven Cleaving Axe, it should still be insufficient for them to trample over Broad Creed Mountain.
With the Clear Qi Robe watching over Fang Zhun's body, unless it was absolutely necessary, it would not easily be used to battle with others.
However, logically speaking, this matter should only be known by the highest echelon experts of Broad Creed Mountain. The Sacred Sun Clan should not be aware of it.
Broad Creed Mountain still had the two Transcending Mortality Martial Grandmasters Zhang Kun and He Ning sitting over it. With the Clear Qi Robe on Broad Creed Mountain as well as the geographical advantage of the clan, the Sacred Sun Clan would not be able to gain much of an advantage in attacking them.
"Could it be that someone of the Sacred Sun Clan has Transcended Mortality and entered Sainthood, or that a Maiden of Extreme Yin has stepped into the Martial Grandmaster realm?"
Fu Enshu pondered in her heart, but she faintly felt uneasy.
She recalled her conversation with Yan Zhaoge back in the Vast Ocean World.
Not daring to hesitate, Fu Enshu immediately continued west towards the Central Heaven Continent.
Before returning to the sect, just stepping into the Central Heaven Continent, Fu Enshu felt strange.
As she neared the region of Broad Creed Mountain, she saw numerous ribbons of light lighting up in the sky, runes densely covering the entire sky. This was clearly the manifestation of the Clear Qi Grand Formation circulating to the maximum.
And other than their clan's guardian grand formation, Fu Enshu could also vaguely feel that there was more than one extremely powerful aura emanating from the direction of Broad Creed Mountain.
Those powerful auras made Fu Enshu feel as though she was facing Huang Guanglie or Old Man Mo.
In fact, he seemed even stronger than Huang Guanglie and Old Man Mo.
At the very least, there was more than one expert of the second level of the Martial Saint realm!
Fu Enshu's heart sunk. It was impossible for the Sacred Sun Clan itself to suddenly produce so many peak experts within such a short period of time.
There was only one explanation. The worst-case scenario had become reality.
The Sacred Sun Clan's backer in the World beyond Worlds had made a move.
Whether it was the Sacred Sun Clan's pleading or enticement, that massive entity of the World beyond Worlds had finally personally made a move, interfering in a matter that they had never cared about before.
The Sacred Sun Clan had drawn in power from outside the Eight Extremities World.
From a certain perspective, he should be happy. This meant that the Sacred Sun Clan itself had no other choice.
Still, they still had to face the problems that they had to face. The forces of the World beyond Worlds had finally entered the Eight Extremities World. How should Broad Creed Mountain face them?
Everything else aside, with more than a single great army of experts at the second level of the Martial Saint realm pressing down on them, how should they deal with this?
What caused Fu Enshu's heart to sink even more was the fact that it was impossible for the other party not to know about Yan Di's situation. As a massive entity originating from the World beyond Worlds, its confidence and pride would definitely not allow it to avoid Yan Di's question.
That they had still made a move under such circumstances meant that they had sufficient confidence in taking care of Yan Di as well!
Those of Broad Creed Mountain here might not even be their main force. The other side definitely had experts of the third level of the Martial Saint realm who had descended into the Eight Extremities World.
Fu Enshu felt anxious.
She still could not approach rashly now, being completely unable to break through the blockade of the other side's experts and return to the Mountain.
While her personality was unyielding and fearless, the gap between the two sides was just too great. Fu Enshu would not be so foolish as to directly send herself to her death, not gaining any benefit at all.
Now, Fu Enshu heard a voice resound from the distant horizon, shaking the surrounding space as it seemed to resound throughout the entire Central Heaven Region.
"Has that kid called Yan Zhaoge-returned?"
On Broad Creed Mountain, with the Grand Elders Zhang Kun and He Ning at their head, the higher echelon experts who were currently still at the clan were all gathered on the Heaven Rising Peak.
The clan that had once flourished now appeared rather dilapidated. Other than the two Transcending Mortality Martial Grandmasters, only a few Essence Talisman Martial Grandmasters remained.
The First Seat of the Disciplinary Hall Chang Zheng, the First Seat of the Heaven Sealing Gorge Elder Gong, the First Seat of the Martial Repository Elder Meng and the First Seat of the Martial Inheritance Hall Elder Qin all had stern expressions on their faces as they stood beside Zhang Kun and He Ning.
In the air above them stood a group of people.
The exalted current Chief of the Sacred Sun Clan, Huang Xu, shockingly carried some respect as he stood beside the two people at the head of the group.
The other Sacred Sun Clan martial practitioners who had accompanied them here all stood respectfully behind them.
The two at the head of the group looked to be in their thirties or forties, their actual ages hard to discern.
However, their auras pressured the entire Broad Creed Mountain into not daring to make any rash moves.
Of these two, one was garbed in white with a pattern of crimson flames embroidered on his back, ostentatious and dazzling. He did not speak as he stood there quietly, his expression nonchalant.
Meanwhile, the other was garbed in green, a sword hanging by his waist.
The one who had spoken was precisely this green-clothed man who gazed down at Broad Creed Mountain. Atop the Heaven Rising Peak, Zhang Kun sucked in a deep breath, saying, "Our clan's disciple Yan Zhaoge participated in the great battle of sealing the Flame Devils on the East Sea. After the seal was completed, he has not appeared again, his current status unknown."
The green-clothed man did not dwell on this issue as he just said, "Since that is so, leave everything he left behind on this mountain to me."
Zhang Kun and the others exchanged looks, their faces all sunken.
However good a temper, faced with such a request, they too would feel enraged.
It was just that the other party's strength and background left them unable to voice their anger.
The green-clothed man's expression was calm as he said matter-of-factly, "My name is Jin Jie, a guest Elder of the Radiant Light Sect. You all know where I come from."
"We of the higher worlds originally had no intention of interfering in the matters of your world. However, there is a treasure belonging to my Radiant Light Sect that ended up in your world, currently in the possession of a disciple of your lineage called Yan Zhaoge."
"Since he is not here, let's find some clues from his things."
Jin Jie said slowly, "We must definitely retrieve that treasure. If you cooperate, we will not make things difficult for you."
Zhang Kun sucked in a deep breath, saying in a heavy tone, "His things are all in his accompanying Shadow Shrinking Pouch, together with him."
Jin Jie said nonchalantly, "It's fine. I'll take his residence away first."
While his tone was casual, his meaning was that he wanted to use his strength to excavate the mountain, digging away Yan Zhaoge's residence along with the surrounding soil.
Zhang Kun was still dealing with the other party when Huang Xu suddenly said, "Of those of Broad Creed Mountain who left the Earth Domain alive back then, other than Yan Zhaoge, there was also someone called Fang Zhun. Also, a Sacred Artifact known as the Clear Qi Robe accompanied Fang Zhun back here."
"Also, it should have been Yan Zhaoge who sent them out of the Earth Domain back then."
Jin Jie raised his brows slightly, "Oh?"
Hearing his words, the white-clothed man who had always been standing quietly beside him said nonchalantly, "Then, this Fang Zhun and that Sacred Artifact can be taken away by us as well."
