Upon hearing this, the Golden Armor Man's eyes turned cold as he said, "I don't care who you are. If you dare to block me, you're courting death!"
As his voice fell, a powerful Aura erupted from him, sweeping towards Qin Zhan.
Buzz—
This was a top-tier hegemonic force; anyone they sent out was a Void Tempering Realm expert.
Boom!
The Golden Armor Man's Aura fully unleashed, and his figure instantly vanished from his original spot.
When he reappeared, he was already in front of Qin Zhan. He stretched out his large hand, carrying immense power, and fiercely grabbed towards Qin Zhan.
Buzz—
Hmm!
What speed!
Qin Zhan's heart trembled, and his expression changed. The Internal Energy within his body circulated frantically, pouring into his long spear, which he thrust forward towards the Golden Armor Man.
"Pfft!"
With a "pfft" sound, blood mixed with shredded flesh splattered, scattering in the air, a striking sight.
The long spear directly pierced through the Golden Armor Man's palm, penetrating all the way to his shoulder. A large hole revealing ghastly white bone appeared. The magical power within the Heavenly King War Weapon burned the Golden Armor Man's wound, causing him to let out a miserable scream.
"Ah!"
The Golden Armor Man screamed, his figure rapidly retreating, almost falling out of the air.
Both were at the first level of the Void Tempering Realm, but the long spear in Qin Zhan's hand was a Heavenly King War Weapon. Although it was incomplete, it was still not something the Golden Armor Man could withstand.
"Hmm?"
"Heh, so it's a damaged Heavenly King War Weapon."
On the warship, that Prince glanced at the long spear in Qin Zhan's hand, his expression slightly changing. Then, his eyes turned cold as he looked at the Golden Armor Man, saying with slight anger, "Useless!"
Having just managed to stabilize his figure, the Golden Armor Man heard the Prince's angry rebuke. This instantly filled his already pale face with killing intent as he glared at Qin Zhan.
However, he could only glare fiercely at Qin Zhan now, attempting to kill the other party with his gaze.
He hadn't expected the opponent to possess a Heavenly King War Weapon. He failed to show off and almost capsized.
"This subordinate is incompetent. I beg Your Highness to take action."
The Golden Armor Man, with his injured body, returned to the warship, kneeling before the Prince, his voice trembling.
The Prince didn't even glance at him. He merely stepped out from the warship's deck, standing in the Void Realm, his gaze cold as he looked at Qin Zhan and Luo Wushuang.
"Half-step Heavenly King Realm!"
Qin Zhan and Luo Wushuang on the other side immediately felt a chill down their spines, their hearts trembling.
"Hmph, hand over the barren ancient token and then lead this Prince to that Kunlun Sect, or your Nine Provinces Dynasty will completely vanish from the Southern Wilderness Region."
"I don't know what you're talking about," Qin Zhan said with a solemn expression.
As his words fell, the Prince snorted coldly, releasing a terrifying Aura from his body, and gently waved his hand.
Bang!
Qin Zhan and Luo Wushuang were sent flying to the ground, and the magnificent hall below was directly smashed to pieces.
"Pfft!"
"Pfft!"
Luo Wushuang's cultivation was too low to withstand a casual blow from a Half-step Heavenly King Realm expert. He lay on the ground, his life unknown.
Qin Zhan's face was extremely pale. He barely managed to support himself. Just as he was about to speak, another mouthful of blood gushed out.
Seeing this, the Nine Nether Prince had no more patience to play around.
"Hmph, in that case, I'll annihilate this Nine Provinces Dynasty first."
With that, he raised his hand and pressed it down towards the King City below. A giant palm appeared in the Void Realm, from which terrifying power surged forth, as if an area of a hundred li in radius was covered by this single palm.
Rumble!
The giant palm, carrying terrifying power, pressed down, immediately emitting a deafening cracking sound.
"Ah!"
"Who will save me…?"
Countless Cultivators below the King City simply couldn't withstand this terrifying Aura and cried out in agony.
Just as the giant palm was about to fall, at that moment—
"Get lost, Old Man!"
Two elderly figures appeared in the Void Realm from behind the King City, shouting loudly.
They were precisely Luo Yuan and Qin Lan, the two Old Ancestors of the Nine Provinces Dynasty.
Immediately after, Qin Lan's entire Aura erupted, and the power within her body surged forth without reservation, gathering in her hand as she punched towards the giant palm.
"Bang!"
A deafening sound rang out as the two forces exploded in the air, and terrifying energy impacted the surrounding hundred li.
Seeing that the crisis was temporarily averted, Luo Yuan quickly rushed towards Qin Zhan and Luo Wushuang, taking the two away.
Hmm?
"Old geezer, you're courting death!"
Seeing this, the Prince's face instantly became extremely grim, and he looked at Qin Lan with cold eyes.
At this moment, Qin Lan's expression was incredibly solemn. She hadn't expected someone to be unable to resist making a move against the Nine Provinces Dynasty so quickly.
Just as the Nine Nether Prince was about to annihilate the person in front of him—
"Had enough fun? This Old Man doesn't have that much time to waste with you here."
A voice resounded throughout this heaven and earth, its faint words filled with majesty.
Upon hearing this, the Prince's body trembled, and his eyes were filled with awe. He bowed respectfully in the air, saying, "Yes."
As his voice fell, a terrifying Aura that made everyone unable to even think of resisting permeated this heaven and earth.
Buzz—
An invisible large hand suddenly appeared in the sky, gently waving towards the King City below.
Qin Lan felt this intimidating Aura, and her pupils suddenly constricted, her face instantly covered with fear.
"Heaven… Heavenly King Realm…"
But before she could finish speaking, an incomparably terrifying power had already enveloped the entire King City. Everyone was suppressed by this Aura, unable to move.
Rumble—
"Bang, bang, bang!"
Below the King City, countless palaces and Lou Yu were all destroyed by the astonishing power. Looking at it now, the entire King City had been reduced to ruins.
Sounds of collapse echoed.
Countless Cultivators' bodies lay amidst the ruins. Some Cultivators with too low cultivation had already lost their breath, including Qin Lan and the others, who also couldn't escape. They lay on the ground, barely alive.
However, fortunately, the person who made the move merely waved his hand gently, as if killing these weak ants was an insult to him.
"Go, take those few people, and ask for the location of that Kunlun Sect."
As the voice fell, everything returned to calm.
That Prince grabbed with a large hand, taking Qin Zhan, Luo Wushuang, and a few others onto the warship.
Afterward, the warship departed from this ruined land.
…Meanwhile, at the same time, the forces from various major states and the countless Cultivators who wanted to watch the excitement had also arrived one after another. Of course, some Loose Cultivators from major states further away from Qingzhou were still on their way. They didn't have warships and could only rely on flying to travel, so their speed was naturally not that fast.
Having arrived above the Nine Provinces King City, everyone was shocked by the scene before them. A vast King City was now in ruins.
"Hiss!"
"Is this the King City of the Nine Provinces Dynasty?"
"How did it turn into a pile of ruins?"
"What happened? Did a Heavenly King Realm expert take action…?"
But before everyone could react, an exclamation of surprise came.
"Look quickly, some of those people aren't completely dead yet…"
The Cultivators in the ruins who weren't dead: I really appreciate you!
Someone noticed that there were still living people in the ruins below and cried out in surprise.
Indeed, everyone looked and saw that many life Auras had not extinguished. However, all of them were covered in flowing blood, a truly shocking sight.
Too terrifying!
Countless people looked at the ruins of the King City below, all feeling their hearts tremble with fear.
It was hard to imagine what kind of power could destroy this place to such an extent!
"Hmm! This is the Aura of magical power!"
"It seems that a Heavenly King Realm expert from the Nine Nether Dynasty has taken action!"
"It must be right. The barren ancient token is in our Southern Wilderness Region. If their Nine Nether Dynasty wants to take it away, our Han Family will not agree."
"Hmph, it's been ten thousand years since we last met, Hancang, your tone hasn't changed at all!"
"Whoever can obtain the barren ancient token will depend on their own strength."
"But now it seems the Nine Nether Dynasty should be going to find that Kunlun Sect."
"The barren ancient token should be in the hands of that Kunlun Sect."
"Hehe, I didn't expect that after so long without appearing, the Southern Wilderness Region would actually have a power suspected of being a hidden Sect. How interesting!"
"Hmph, what hidden great Sect? If it weren't for those juniors in your clans talking nonsense, the junior from my Lingyun Palace wouldn't have needed to awaken this Old Man; he would have already taken the barren ancient token."
"Let's go, follow this Aura, otherwise the barren ancient token will be obtained by the Nine Nether Dynasty."
In the Void Realm of this heaven and earth, several Divine Thoughts of the Old Undying were communicating.
Sensing the magical power Aura left here, they had already guessed that the Nine Nether Dynasty had also dispatched a Heavenly King Realm expert.
This was not a good thing for them. They dared not underestimate the strength of the Nine Nether Dynasty, not even them!
This Divine Thought was right. If it weren't for the fact that the various major forces saw Chen Beixuan in Qingzhou that day and he said he was just a Guardian Elder of Kunlun, and he also powerfully killed a Half-step Heavenly King Realm expert in an instant, it would be strange if the major forces weren't wary and suspicious. Moreover, the foundations of the major forces were all in slumber, so they didn't dare to rashly attack Kunlun.
What's even more incredible is that the rumors became increasingly exaggerated. Among the Loose Cultivators in the Southern Wilderness Region, Kunlun was even rumored to have a Saint in existence.
Of course, the major forces would never believe that a Saint existed. What kind of existence is a Saint! The Southern Wilderness Region hasn't had a Saint appear for tens of thousands of years.
This also led to the Southern Wilderness Region being the weakest major region on the Immortal Martial Continent.
So, nothing is as terrifying as rumors. We must not spread rumors or believe them.
Southern Wilderness Region Cultivators: You're full of nonsense!
Lingyun Palace in Yunzhou is a top-tier hegemonic force, but it rarely appears in the Southern Wilderness Region.
Unless something major happens, Lingyun Palace didn't even attend the last barren ancient auction.
