"Junior Gu!"
At this moment on the mountainside, the Divine Sense of Jin Chen Ancestor, who was ransacking the storeroom, finally reflected this sudden scene, his face changing color.
The Dong Shen Ancestor casually put away the pitch-black Brass Bell under his feet and sneered:
"Young man, your Dao Practice is still somewhat shallow! Unfortunately, this lesson is one you cannot afford!"
His gaze quickly met the eyes of Jin Chen Ancestor and also fell on the revealed traces of the other four True Monarchs of Harmonization, a slight amicable smile appearing on his face.
"Old friends, how are the Elixirs and Magical Treasures of Dong Shen Temple? Do they suit your tastes?"
His expression was solemn, but there was a hint of irony in his words.
Upon hearing this, Houyang Ancestor, True Monarch Qinghe, Primordial Transformation True Monarch, and another female cultivator in purple all had subtle changes in their expressions.
It’s inevitably embarrassing to be caught stealing by the owner.
However, they were all old and cunning, and after a brief awkward moment, they all appeared composed or indifferent.
They walked out of the storeroom, alchemy room, and scripture tower generously!
The figure of Jin Chen Ancestor appeared in the void. He glanced at the place where Prince Shun had fallen, a flash of fury in his eyes.
Prince Shun was a descendant of the Saint King, painstakingly supported by the Five Elements Immortal Sect, costing them quite a lot. He was ’borrowed’ this time to slay Emperor Jingwu.
Now, his fall had caused quite some trouble for him.
Even more troublesome was that without Prince Shun, who could suppress the Dragon Soul, they would have to confront Emperor Jingwu personally and bear the backlash of the Dragon Qi.
Taking a deep breath, Jin Chen Ancestor looked at the Dong Shen Ancestor, his voice cold.
"Old Dong Shen demon, stop babbling. Today we are here to rectify the source. You’ve stolen the Daqian Fortune for hundreds of years, and it’s time for retribution!"
Upon hearing this, True Monarch Qinghe from the Shangqing Sword Sect laughed.
"Indeed, Fellow Daoist Dong Shen, your debts at Dong Shen Temple over the years are too many; it’s time to settle them!"
The Dong Shen Ancestor sneered incessantly.
"After doing such disgraceful deeds, you’re still boasting here! Truly despicable!"
Jin Chen Ancestor glanced down, a hint of fierceness in his eyes.
"Old Dong Shen demon, there’s no need for cheap talk. Let me show you the sharpness of my sword today!"
A golden light emerged in his hand, and instantaneously, the heavens and earth resounded with endless sword cries, golden swords appearing in his eyes, turning into a vast sword aura slashing toward the Dong Shen Ancestor.
In the Dong Shen Ancestor’s gaze, the infinite golden sword aura seemed to form a grand array of condensed Evil Qi, its golden light sharp, piercing through every inch of Heaven and Earth.
To the Dong Shen Ancestor, it seemed as if he could see a First Layer of glorious Sword Intent filling the firmament.
But as it fell upon the Dong Shen Ancestor’s heart, only a hint of calm appeared in his eyes.
"Your sword is just so-so!"
With a swing of his hand, a majestic azure Thunder Dragon appeared once more.
Only this time, it wasn’t just one, but five azure Thunder Dragons took form in the void.
These were from the Five Extremes Thunder Skill in the Cave Scripture, possessing an extraordinary power to turn decay into marvel in the Dong Shen Ancestor’s hands, the five Thunder Dragons resembling true Thunder Dragon Divine Beasts, their thunder flames tearing the sky.
In an instant, they scattered the endless Sword Qi with a pure aura of destruction, the five Thunder Dragons coalescing in mid-air, transforming directly into five mighty fingers squeezing towards Jin Chen True Monarch.
The five fingers enveloped the sky, possessing a Marvelous Power to refine Heaven and Earth.
Jin Chen Ancestor’s face changed slightly, a look of horror on his face as a Five-Colored Talisman formed between his brows, a Five Elements Canopy intertwined and appeared, protecting his entire body with all his might.
"Open!"
Beside him, Houyang Ancestor’s expression sank, the Five-Colored Divine Peak in his hand coiled and suddenly transformed into a stream of five-colored light, rushing towards the place where the Dong Shen Ancestor was standing.
The Dong Shen Ancestor snorted coldly at the sight, countless Thunder Lights woven in his hand, a Thunder Mace appearing, with one swipe smashing that Five-Colored Mountain Peak away.
Such formidable Magical Power was simply astounding.
At the same time, countless Thunder Lights were weaving around him, a majestic and imposing Thundering Robe coalescing into form around him, resembling a true Thunder God descending to the world, emanating a powerful aura of Immortal God’s authority.
Seeing this, Jin Chen True Monarch was greatly alarmed and urgently shouted, "Three fellow Daoists, why are you still not acting? Quickly eliminate this demon fiend!"
True Monarch Qinghe of the Shangqing Sword Sect and Primordial Transformation True Monarch from the Profound Extreme Sect exchanged glances and immediately advanced with their Magical Treasures.
Their Sword Light and Divine Seal transformed into meteors, attacking from behind.
The female cultivator in purple smiled serenely, watching the scene without any indication of her thoughts.
Zhang Family Mansion.
Zhang Jian frowned. Even though his Dao Practice wasn’t profound, he could tell that this Dong Shen Ancestor’s Dao Practice and methods far exceeded that of Jin Chen True Monarch.
Fighting one against four, he could still hold his ground.
Such Divine Techniques were beyond imagination.
Zhang Jian looked towards True Monarch Zhanmo and asked, "Master, is Dong Shen Ancestor truly so powerful?"
True Monarch Zhanmo shook his head upon hearing this, "Five hundred years ago, Dong Shen Ancestor was merely at the Creation Realm. To think that borrowing Daqian National Fortune, his Dao Practice has actually progressed to this extent!"
An air of solemnity flickered in True Monarch Zhanmo’s eyes.
In her perspective, Dong Shen Ancestor belonged to the late-bloomer type of cultivator, yet now he surprised True Monarch Zhanmo somewhat.
She then shifted her gaze to Zhang Jian, saying calmly.
"But even if Dong Shen returns, it’s hard to reverse the situation. Despite his astonishing Dao Practice, he cannot protect the Emperor of Daqian..."
