Within the six-star Thundercloud Sect,
The sect leader and elders had gathered together.
After all, within the Qian Region's Cangzhou territory, six-star factions already represented the pinnacle of power.
Especially since the Cangyan Sect was their neighboring sect,
The news of a Cangyan Sect elder's death had reached their ears.
This was someone openly challenging the authority of a six-star faction!
"Qingyang Town's Chu family? That Qingyang Town's Chu family again?"
Thundercloud Sect Leader Xiao Zhentian rubbed his temples.
This wasn't the first time he'd heard of this place.
"Elder Meng, if I recall correctly, your disciple Chu Xiuran is from Qingyang Town's Chu family?"
Xiao Zhentian inquired.
Meng Wu's mouth twitched slightly as he stood up:
"Reporting to Sect Leader, he is indeed from that family!"
It was he who had brought Chu Xiuran from the Chu family to the Thundercloud Sect.
Back then, the strongest in that family was merely a Second-Tier Martial Warrior.
How had they developed to the point of daring to provoke the six-star Cangyan Sect in such a short time?
"How is his current strength?"
"He's currently in seclusion attempting to break through to Martial King realm!"
"Hahaha, truly worthy of the Purple Heaven Thunder Body! The compatibility with our sect's techniques is indeed remarkable!"
Xiao Zhentian pondered briefly: "Since he's in seclusion attempting Martial King breakthrough, let's not disturb him for now to avoid distracting him."
Meng Wu asked: "Sect Leader, should we intervene in this matter?"
"Intervene? How would we intervene?"
"They openly killed Martial King Nie Weidu! The Cangyan Sect won't let this rest!"
"All we can do is preserve a trace of their Chu family's bloodline!"
Xiao Zhentian said solemnly.
The Thundercloud Sect and Cangyan Sect already had existing tensions.
If they intervened further,
It could very likely trigger all-out war between the two sects,
Which would truly result in rivers of blood!
Most residents of Qingyang Town had already left,
Fearful of being caught in this conflict,
Where they might die without even knowing how.
Several figures descended outside Qingyang Town carrying terrifying auras,
Each radiating murderous intent!
They were the three Martial King elders from Cangyan Sect.
"Is this Qingyang Town where that Chu family resides?"
Without another word,
The three unleashed their most terrifying martial techniques, blanketing Qingyang Town.
"What? They intend to destroy the entire city?"
This sight terrified all remaining residents,
Who had thought the sect might only target the Chu family,
Never expecting such brutality,
Seeking to annihilate all of Qingyang Town.
Yet under everyone's horrified gazes,
When those terrifying attacks touched Qingyang Town, they were all blocked by a silver barrier.
Everyone stared in shock at the suddenly appearing silver barrier,
Numerous suns, moons and stars materialized,
Radiating dazzling light.
"Is this the saint-grade formation 'Sun Moon Star Formation' that the Beast God mentioned?"
Chu Tianyang gazed at the formation in the sky.
Truly worthy of its saint-grade reputation!
The attacks from three Martial Kings couldn't even create a ripple upon it,
Such terrifying defense!
"The Beast God truly lives up to his name, able to produce even saint-grade formations!"
Chu Jingyue was amazed once more.
"Hmph, have you forgotten our clan's imperial artifact?"
"Ah right, though we still haven't figured out how to use that thing properly!"
Outside Qingyang Town,
The three Martial Kings frowned deeply,
This impenetrable formation was beyond their expectations.
"Very well, we'll simply wait here. Let's see if they can hide inside forever!"
One elder snorted coldly.
Having offended their Cangyan Sect,
They couldn't possibly get off so easily.
"Who said we're hiding inside?"
Just as the three elders prepared to sit cross-legged,
Chu Tianyang actually walked out voluntarily.
Was a middle-aged man holding a black longsword,
None other than the Chu family's Seventh Elder Chu Jianchen!
Though his cultivation hadn't broken through to Martial King,
With his saint-grade sword and the inheritance comprehended from it, he could still rival Martial Kings!
"In that case, let your blood serve as sacrifice for Elder Nie!"
The three Cangyan Sect elders simultaneously unleashed terrifying power, attacking fiercely.
"That depends on your ability!"
Chu Tianyang and his companion showed no mercy either,
Releasing tremendous power as they counterattacked.
Chu Jianchen's sword danced,
Countless black sword lights clashing fiercely with one opponent.
While Chu Tianyang fought two alone,
His cultivation being extremely high, nearing Martial Emperor breakthrough.
Sword lights crisscrossed,
Seeming capable of splitting heaven and earth.
Fist radiance and palm imprints erupted, shaking the world.
Wherever the energy passed,
Even the mountains outside Qingyang Town were destroyed.
Chu Jianchen wielded the saint sword Mo Ye against a mid-stage Martial King elder in an evenly matched battle!
While Chu Tianyang fought two,
Not only holding his own but even suppressing both Martial Kings at times.
Within Qingyang Town,
All witnesses were stunned.
"The Chu family has reached such heights?"
"Even three Martial Kings can't subdue them?"
They knew the Chu family was strong,
But never imagined to this extent!
"With the family head Chu Jingyue who can fight across realms, doesn't the Chu family effectively have three Martial King-level experts?"
Someone exclaimed in terror,
Such power frightened everyone.
And what about their hidden strengths?
The Chu family's power absolutely exceeded all imagination!
"Ah, if only that child Chu Yan were home, he'd crush them effortlessly!"
After all, Chu Yan with his sacred physique cultivated rapidly,
With exceptionally high combat power!
But he'd left on training two months prior!
Though Chu Jingyue knew,
Chu Yan was searching for traces of his mother!

Black sword light flashed,
Chu Jianchen left a bloody wound on his opponent.
"Six-star sect elder? This is all you've got?"
Looking disdainfully at his foe.
"You! If not for that spiritual weapon, do you think you could match me?"
The opponent snorted coldly,
"Very well, witness my true power!"
He drew his sixth-tier mid-grade spiritual weapon—Withered Wood Blade—from his spatial ring!
Swinging the sixth-tier spiritual weapon fiercely.
Chu Jianchen executed a movement technique instantly closing the distance,
Energy surging through him as his Mo Ye sword carried razor-sharp sword light in a horizontal slash.
Saint sword met spiritual weapon,
And under the Cangyan Sect elder's horrified gaze,
His Withered Wood Blade shattered instantly,
The black sword cleanly bisecting his torso.
With a sickening tear,
A wound deep enough to reveal internal organs appeared on his chest!
"Not bad for a Martial King! Surviving that, then take this!"
A jade-like sword materialized behind him,
Merging into the inky Mo Ye,
Making the saint sword erupt with dazzling black light, its sword energy growing even more terrifying!
"A martial soul? You possess a martial soul?"
