Chapter 118 Clash of Sects

Meanwhile, in the Wudang sect area...

Rumble!

The sound of thunder echoed through the night sky, striking down several people outside the Wudang sect.

Long Tian appeared calm, even though he had killed several masked individuals.

This was exactly the same as in the original plot, where the Golden Star Sect was assisted by the Order of Ancient, a belief that had existed for thousands of years.

He didn't know their purpose, their motives weren't thoroughly explained in the original plot.

Long Tian's gaze fixated on a woman with snow-white hair standing not far from him. He approached her.

"An impressive fight. You must be very strong. In which realm your cultivation base?" he inquired.

Li Yan merely glanced at him, her response curt, "That's none of your concern," she said dismissively, then proceeded to another location without further explanation.

Nevertheless, Long Tian became increasingly intrigued by her. Her aura was similar to what he felt from Shen Yulan. It was not impossible that she also came from the upper realm.

"How enigmatic. I wonder how she found her way into this world," he mused under his breath.

However, he swiftly shook off his curiosity, refocusing his attention on the ongoing battle, and moved to another strategic position.

Under the cover of darkness, the Wudang sect faced a covert onslaught by the Golden Star Sect and the Order of Ancient. Approximately a hundred formidable adversaries had infiltrated their premises.

And, of course, he would help.

Back at the Golden Star Sect, Xiong Zhu's countenance displayed a mix of panic and rage. He seized the collar of an elderly man standing before him, his fury boiling over.

"What do you mean the treasure is missing?! Are you suggesting an infiltrator breached my pavilion? Is this some sort of joke?!" he thundered, his anger palpable.

The elderly man wore a grim expression, his voice heavy with regret. "I don't know, Sect Master. I ordered my subordinates to retrieve it, only to find them dead," he explained somberly. The chapters is up by N0vEI__bin

Xiong Zhu's frustration escalated upon hearing this. "So you didn't take it immediately? You're an Elder, is your brain malfunctioning? Shit!" he exclaimed furiously, hurling the man away in his fit of rage.

His expression was extremely grim; he intended to retrieve the treasure to make peace, yet, it had vanished!

Meanwhile, in the battlefield...

"That's hardly surprising; he's Long Zuandi's grandson," another voice responded.

The black-clad adversaries succumbed instantly to the thunder's fury.

Upon witnessing the video, Xiong Zhu was overcome with panic, his heart racing in his chest.

"Master Shi, Yu Zhong, I implore you to hear my explanation. We were acting on orders, and I had no other choice," he pleaded desperately, his face drenched in sweat.

"It's too late for explanations, Xiong Zhu. My wrath can only be extinguished by the annihilation of the Golden Star Sect," Shi Huang declared coldly, his presence imposing.

Xiong Zhu perspired profusely, the air growing hotter and denser under Shi Huang's relentless pressure.

Gritting his teeth, he raked his mind for a solution, desperate to extricate himself from this dire situation.

Yet, in an unexpected turn, Shi Huang launched the first strike, seizing Xiong Zhu by the neck and hoisting him into the air.

"You'll meet your end by your own hand!" Shi Huang proclaimed icily.

"You'll die by your own actions!" Shi Huang said coldly.

"FUCK!" Xiong Zhu spat, immediately summoning his martial spirit to fight.

The battle began, a duel between sect leaders. Yu Zhong and other elite soldiers also faced several Elders.

The cacophony of battle reached a fever pitch as over 700 combatants clashed fiercely within the confines of the Golden Star Sect's domain. There was no escape; the alliance forces had effectively sealed off the sect's outer perimeter, ruthlessly eliminating anyone attempting to flee. A grim tableau of lifeless bodies adorned the grounds outside the Golden Star Sect, a stark testament to the brutality of the conflict raging within.

Amidst the chaos, Qin Chen slowly opened his eyes. After a brief moment of confusion, he sat up and looked around, trying to make sense of his surroundings.

Suddenly, he remembered something and panicked, glancing at his right arm. Fortunately, his worst fears did not come true. The arm he thought was severed was intact! He couldn't comprehend what had happened, but it was undoubtedly a fortunate turn of events.

At this moment, Shen Yulan emerged from the jade pendant. Her expression was earnest as she spoke, "Qin Chen, it seems you possess an extraordinary martial spirit."

"Oh, Lady Shen, do you know something about it?" Qin Chen asked, curiosity piqued.

"When your martial spirit appeared, you were immediately enveloped in a golden aura. That aura even caused your severed arm to reattach itself to your body," Shen Yulan replied, her tone earnest.

Hearing this, Qin Chen was somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected his martial spirit to be capable of such feats.

However, he reasoned that it made sense since his martial spirit was that of a great and mysterious man. He didn't understand why it had manifested, but it was undeniably a fortunate occurrence.

"How long have I been unconscious?" he inquired.

"I don't know. I can't measure time specifically within the jade pendant," Shen Yulan answered.

Qin Chen nodded and then slowly stood up. He still felt soreness in various parts of his body. He couldn't even muster his aura or cultivation strength. Fighting the Elder on the fifth floor had given him a genuine sense of horror. He was grateful for his martial spirit's intervention.
