Chapter 344: Chapter 230: The Fall of the Sunset Sect, Everyone’s Regret! (Seeking monthly tickets, Seeking subscription!)

Sunset Sect.

Situated atop a massive mountain peak with clouds only able to hover around its waist.

Currently, a giant light curtain envelops the entire peak. This is the Sunset Sect’s Sect Guardian Array.

Inside the array, desolation fills the air.

The life tablets of eight Divine Bridge Realm Elders have shattered, thoroughly shocking the senior leadership of the Sunset Sect.

The remaining three elders and the Sect Master discussed and made a decisive decision.

Pack up all the sect’s resources and the exceptionally talented disciples, flee the mountain gate, and seek refuge with the Qian Yuan Imperial Family in the Capital.

But before they could finish packing up.

Kong Nian arrived at the Sunset Sect before the rest.

After he launched his genuine dharma-nature attack on the mountain gate, the Sect Guardian Array was activated just in time.

This saved them from total destruction.

Seeing this, Kong Nian stopped as well.

Everyone looked at the imposing dharma-nature standing outside the Sect Guardian Array, their hearts filled with despair.

Being blocked by a great cultivator with a dharma-nature, they were like turtles in a jar.

Now all their struggles and efforts are in vain.

If it were before, when the dozens of Divine Bridge Realm Elders were still around, they could have stood a fight using the Sect Guardian Array.

But now, within the entire Sunset Sect, there are only four cultivators in the Divine Bridge Realm when combined.

Four Divine Bridge Realm cultivators, even with the assistance of the Sect Guardian Array, had no ability to resist a great cultivator with dharma-nature.

The Sunset Sect Master stood behind the Sect Guardian Array, giving a respectful bow to Kong Nian in mid-air.

“Elder Kong Nian, could you please extend your kindness and grant us a way to live?”

Kong Nian stood in mid-air, silent.

Seeing that Kong Nian gave no response, he had no choice but to speak up again.

“Elder Kong Nian, considering that we belong to the same path, could you allow the Sunset Sect to preserve a few seeds, to continue our lineage?”

Kong Nian, who had displayed his genuine dharma-nature, slowly spoke after hearing these words.

“Preserve seeds? Decades ago, the most outstanding disciple of my lineage, Heaven Lead Peak, was secretly killed by you!”

“Why didn’t you leave seeds for my Heaven Lead Peak lineage?”

“I …” The Sunset Sect Master hastily tried to speak, but was immediately interrupted by Kong Nian.

“There’s no need for sophistry in front of me, and I won’t listen to your sophistry!”

“I only trust my own judgment!”

hearing Kong Nian’s resolute words, the Sect Master of Sunset Sect remained silent.

At this point, the Grand Elder on his side excitedly said: “Sect Master, let’s fight him!”

“Fight? How to fight?” The Sect Master of the Sunset Sect smiled bitterly: “That’s a great cultivator who has condensed a genuine dharma-nature. It seems that even Wang Xiao and the other three great cultivators are defeated. What qualifications do we have to fight?”

“Then what should we do? Just wait to die?” The Grand Elder was excited: “Once he makes a move, can this Sect Guardian Array stop a great cultivator at his peak?”

“At most it can only delay temporarily, the Sect Guardian Array will eventually be broken!”

“He’s not making a move now, he’s just waiting for people like Lu Qingshan.”

“Once they arrive, it will be time for Kong Nian to break the array.”

The Sect Master of the Sunset Sect slowly spoke.

“Delay as much as possible, I have already sent a message informing the Qian Yuan Imperial Family. They want us to hold on, and reinforcements are on the way.”

“Reinforcements? Who’s coming, the King of Divine Power or other princes?”

“Didn’t say?”

“Didn’t say? Will there really be reinforcements?” The Grand Elder could not help but give a bitter smile.

Everyone fell silent after hearing this.

Suddenly, another elder spoke out: “It would have been so good if we had taken Jiang Yuan into the Sunset Sect all those years ago.”

“Without Jiang Yuan, Kong Nian wouldn’t have gotten the longevity fruit and couldn’t have broken through to the Dharma Realm.”

“With Jiang Yuan here, the situation today might be completely reversed.”

“It should be us blocking the gates of the Supreme Mystery Sect, not the Supreme Mystery Sect blocking ours!”

Hearing this, Gongsun Zhi on the side pursed her lips, her heart filled with mixed emotions.

She knew that everyone in the sect who knew about this matter now blamed her.

Even the Sect Master standing beside her thought the same, he just didn’t say it out loud.

The disaster of the Sunset Sect today was not because the Sunset Sect chose to ally with the Qian Yuan Imperial Family.

Nor was it a result of them secretly eliminating the young geniuses from various major sects around them over the years, thereby inviting disasters.

The current situation was merely because of one person, Jiang Yuan.

It was because of Jiang Yuan that Kong Nian, who was getting on in years and nearing his end, was able to obtain a longevity fruit.

And it was exactly because Kong Nian consumed this longevity fruit that he was able to extend his life by a century, regain his youth, and successfully break through to the Dharma Realm.

If she had taken Jiang Yuan into the Sunset Sect back then, all this good fortune would have nothing to do with the Supreme Mystery Sect.

The Sunset Sect would have risen to great heights because of the addition of Jiang Yuan.

Thinking of this, Gongsun Zhi spoke in a low voice: “The catastrophe today is all on me, I was blind back then and failed to see the talent of Jiang Yuan.”

“As a result, he joined the Supreme Mystery Sect, instead of joining the Sunset Sect.”

“If it were not for me, he should have joined the Sunset Sect, and we wouldn’t be in this situation today.”

The Sunset Sect Master let out a soft sigh.

“Talking about this now is useless!”

“We’re now blocked by the mountain gate, no one can leave the sect.”

“If we want to survive, we can only hold on as much as we can and wait for the assistance from the Qian Yuan Imperial Family.”

…

Half a day later.

With the full acceleration from Lu Qingshan and others, the flying ship arrived at the gate of the Sunset Sect in no time.

Looking down at the light curtain that enveloped the entire Sunset Sect.

Liu Jie exclaimed: “This is truly spectacular! Chief Kong is so domineering! One man blocking an entire sect!”
