Great Chang world, Divine Firmament Chapter.

"Boom!"

A terrifying blast surged in the hall where Ancestral Master Zhang was cultivating in seclusion.

Ancestral Master Zhang, who was dressed in a Daoist robe with a high headdress, sat calm and cross-legged despite the eruption that just occured. Sitting around him were twelve figures who were also sitting cross-legged. There was lightning bolts streaking across their bodies but the one with the most terrifying aura was still Ancestral Master Zhang! The terrifying aura released from his body made the void constantly tremble, to the point that several cracks appeared in the space.

"As I expected, once the twelve Massive Twelve Capital Heaven Divine Wraith Array is infused into my Divine Firmament Lightning Dharma, I can really draw a wisp of Chaos Divine Lightning to descend upon me, causing my Divine Firmament Lightning Dharma foundation to turn immensely robust." Ancestral Master Zhang revealed a look of glee. "In terms of foundation, I can match the top Lightning Dharma in the Three Realms."

"Unfortunately, I have only created my Divine Firmament Lightning Dharma to the sixth firmament! I even had to rely on the Myriad Dharma Pool to get that far." Ancestral Master Zhang sighed. "Creating a Dharmic formulation independently is just too difficult."

"But since I have resolved to take this path, I should go all the way."

Ancestral Master Zhang had enough patience.

He was a Skyimmortal with unlimited life. He had more than enough patience to create a Dharmic formulation for himself! Furthermore, a self-created Dharmic formulation was typically extremely powerful. After Ancestral Master Zhang infused a sliver of Chaos Divine Lightning into his body, he was already able to match seventh or eighth firmament Skyimmortals despite being only a sixth firmament Skyimmortal.

After holding back for so long, this sudden uprising immediately made him a powerful figure in the Effulgent dominion.

Unfortunately…

He had been forced to use the Myriad Dharma Pool, which he had planned on using to break the bottleneck of the ninth firmament Skyimmortal, way ahead of time!

"Whoosh."

Ancestral Master Zhang got up and waved his hand. The twelve figures around him transformed into lightning and flew into his body.

Following that, Ancestral Master Zhang left the hall.

Instantly, he was high in the sky.

"Everyone." Ancestral Master Zhang held his transmission token and contacted Human Emperor, East Sea Skydragon, Skydemon Palatial Lord and company.

"Brother Zhang."

"Divine Firmament, what's the matter?"

Phantoms appeared around him. They were none other than Human Emperor, Patriarch Bai, East Sea Skydragon, Skydemon Palatial Lord, and Bodhisattva Mahākāśyapa.

"Everyone, that massive array formation we discovered in the Boor Ancestral Sect left me with a persistent sense of unease ," said Ancestral Master Zhang. "If that array formation had been set up to completion, the price paid would be astounding. It certainly wouldn't be worth whatever they gained from conquering a Small World! I believe… Empyrean Lord has a special motive for going after our Great Chang world. It is not the simple conquest of a Small World."

"Yes, I think so too. The materials used in that array formation and the armor on the hundred plus third firmament fiendcelestial guardians… is truly an astounding price to pay. That Empyrean Lord must have a great ploy in the making." Patriarch Bai nodded.

"I haven't been able to feel at ease either," added Human Emperor.

"It is also the reason why I have spared no expense to increase my strength in recent times," said Ancestral Master Zhang. "Just today, I have decided to eliminate the Eight Lineage Fiendish Demons! I will also rid our Great Chang world of all potential catastrophes, leaving not even a single flawed spatial node behind."

"What?"

"Eliminate all of them?"

"Get rid of all potential catastrophes?"

Human Emperor and company were extremely astonished.

Many of the catastrophe sources were difficult to resolve. For example, some were inside the lairs of the Eight Lineage Fiendish Demons! Some had been repressed by Human Emperor and the dragons in the past, but that was just simply repression. It was impossible to destroy the problem at its root.

"What do you need of us?" asked East Sea Skydragon immediately.

"Leave everything to me," said Ancestral Master Zhang. "However, I will need all of your help to clean up the aftermath."

"That is only natural."

"Brother Zhang is getting more powerful. Haha, it's a blessing for our Great Chang world! It will truly be a momentous event in our Great Chang world's history if all the fiendcelestials in the world are wiped out. It's unfortunate that Qin Yun isn't around to see it," said Patriarch Bai.

"I wonder how Qin Yun is now." Skydemon Palatial Lord was a little worried.

"Qin Yun?" Ancestral Master Zhang shook his head gently. "That Senior Brother Yellow-robed of mine is someone even the Heavenly Courts are powerless against. There's nothing I can do except use my status as the Dao Ancestor's personal disciple… I hope that can be of some use for Qin Yun. But everything will depend on him in the end. Resolving the potential catastrophes should be done as soon as possible. I will take action now. In an hour, you can muster the manpower needed to head for the Eight Lineage Fiendish Demon nests and start the cleanup."

"Alright."

"Our Great Chang world has been in existence since ancient times. Finally, we are able to rid the threat of the fiendcelestial lineage completely."

"I never expected we would see this day."

Everyone felt excited.

Ancestral Master Zhang nodded and severed the transmission.

"It's time to set off." Ancestral Master Zhang's mind stirred. With a series of whooshes, lightning flew out of his body and to his side. There were a total of twelve figures, their bodies sparking with lightning occasionally.

They were the twelve Lightning Godfiends.

"I will first head to Yi Prefecture to finish Mt Ancestral Snake.You are responsible for watching the remaining seven fiendish demon lineages. Seal the void and prevent them from escaping," instructed Ancestral Master Zhang.

"Yes, Master." The twelve Lightning Godfiends all spoke respectfully.

They flew off…

The twelve Lightning Godfiends split off into seven streams. Two were sent to the stronger of the seven lineages to watch them closely! Single units were deployed to watch the weaker ones.

"I'll first destroy Mt. Ancestral Snake." Ancestral Master Zhang headed straight for Mt. Ancestral Snake.

Mt. Ancestral Snake was the most troublesome lineage among the Nine Lineage Fiendish Demons of yesteryear! It was also the one Ancestral Master Zhang wished to get rid of the most.

…

The entire Great Chang world was in preparation to rid the world of the fiendcelestials!

It would also see the end of all potential catastrophes!

This was a critical period in the history of the Great Chang world.

But far in the Skywolf world, Qin Yun did not know what was happening in his homeworld.

"Bam! Bam! Bam!"

Yiyi unleashed her sword arts against Qin Yun in a sparring match.

Qin Yun would at times deliberately guide her, letting Yiyi enjoy the battle as she delivered her sword arts in a smoother fashion.

Other times, he would deliberately find the flaws in her attacks and dismantle them, showing his daughter the problems in her sword moves.

"We shall stop for today." Qin Yun stopped.

"Yes."

The dragon girl smiled as she sheathed her sword. "Senior Qin, I feel like my sword arts are becoming more powerful. My Dao domain broke through to fifteen kilometers just yesterday."

"It's still early," said Qin Yun. "In the past, you learned everything on your own and took a lot of diversions. You only had a Dao domain of ten kilometers when you first stepped into the Dao. That's not bad compared to ordinary cultivators, but with your talent… reaching a Dao domain of only ten kilometers is considered subpar. Since you started out in a low state, you will only experience greater difficulties in the future."

"Okay." Yiyi nodded immediately.

Although Qin Yun spoke harshly, he was actually pretty pleased.

Back in his dream of a hundred years, his Dao domain reached ten kilometers when he stepped into the Dao in the first world! In the second world, his second stepping into the Dao reached fifteen kilometers.

But as he had a heart as still as an ice mirror in the second world, the Sword Dao he created was a little too cold.

After he returned to his homeworld and entered into his real body, the roaring emotions in him made him realize the flaws in his Sword Dao. His final stepping into the Dao resulted in a Dao domain of twenty-five kilometers.

This made for an extremely robust Sword Dao foundation. Qin Yun's starting point in his Sword Dao was already very high, so he soared the moment his strength reached that of a Skyimmortal… As for his daughter, she had cultivated for too short a period of time. She simply had far less experience than Qin Yun. It was already quite an impressive feat for her to have a Dao domain of ten kilometers the moment she stepped into the Dao. Qin Yun's son, Meng Huan, only had a Dao domain of five kilometers when he first stepped into the Dao.

"Go back and cultivate well. I have things to tend to in the coming day or two. Come back in three days," instructed Qin Yun.

"Alright. I'll be leaving first." Yiyi smiled and departed immediately.

As Qin Yun watched his daughter depart on a cloud, his expression turned solemn.

"I have to rescue my daughter as soon as possible."

"It's unknown when Yellow-robed Supremacy will exit seclusion. I can't just keep waiting."

"The last time my daughter encountered danger, I was unable to interfere since it was a competition between disciples," thought Qin Yun. "Yellow-robed Supremacy arranged for the competition of the disciples and forbade Combat Generals and Guardians from interfering. No one dares to defy him. If I tried…Treasure Elephant Palace would probably immediately send a group of Combat Generals and Guardians to apprehend me."

"Since I can't interfere, am I to watch helplessly as my daughter is being hunted down?"

Qin Yun was filled with rage and the feeling of being powerless when he watched his daughter being pursued two days ago.

He had been constantly tormented by these emotions over the past two days.

"There is only one way for me to have any hopes of saving my daughter."

"That is to successfully create a Sword Immortal Essence Soul Dharmic formulation and condense an Essence Soul!"

"That way, I will be the only other person in the Three Realms apart from the Grand Supreme Dao Ancestor to create a Sword Immortal Essence Soul Dharmic formulation. According to Ancestral Master Zhang, Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure will likely take me in as a disciple! After I become a personal disciple of the Dao Ancestor, Yellow-robed Supremacy would treat me well as a Green Touring Palace disciple even if he is capricious in nature. After all, Green Touring Palace is his backer. If he offends it, he would truly be left alone." Qin Yun understood this point.

Yellow-robed Supremacy was able to lead a carefree life despite rebelling against the Heavenly Courts.

On one hand, it was because he was sufficiently powerful, with strength that matched Golden Immortals and Buddhas. He was also hiding in a Small World.

On the other hand, it's because he had Green Touring Palace backing him.

"Over the past half year, I have been constantly perfecting my Essence Soul Dharmic formulation. I could have condensed the Essence Soul a long time ago but I simply wished for it to be as perfect as could be."

"But I can't delay any further."

"I'll do it today!"

"I'll attempt to condense an Essence Soul. Success or failure will all depend on this attempt."

Qin Yun had made up his mind.

That evening.

He set up layers of array formations around the nameless mountain. And inside the stone house, Qin Yun sat cross-legged on a bed. Fragrance from a stick of 'Soul Beckoning Incense' emanated through the stone house, pushing Qin Yun's mind and heart to an extremely ethereal state.

With everything in place, it was time to break through.
