The scene shocked the entire world. Even the powerful living creatures in the distant universes could not help but tremble in fear. Meanwhile, those in the nearby Star Territories immediately fell into a dead silence.

 

If any of the Dao Realm existences so wished, they were fully capable of slaughtering all in a Great World. Under these circumstances, it was only natural that nobody dared to get on their bad side.

 

“Seal the surrounding universes, and don’t allow any living being to leave this place! I’m curious to see just how the Divine Son perished inside the Azure Sky Realm. If anybody dares to harm him, then I will definitely make them regret ever being born!”

 

The rest of the Divine Eternal Clan Elders shouted grimly, looking extremely gloomy.

 

Although they did not personally take action, they instructed the rest of their Clansmen to seal the universe and prevent anybody from leaving. The only entrance and exit to the Azure Sky Realm were both located at this spot. Hence, they simply needed to figure out a way to investigate the truth behind the Divine Son’s death.

 

For a time, the news of the Divine Eternal Clan’s Divine Son dying inside the Azure Sky Realm spread everywhere like wildfire and caused a huge commotion throughout the universe. It was just that the Clans in the Immortal Spirit Civilisation were already drowning in their own troubles and struggling to protect themselves at the moment, so they were not very affected even after learning the shocking news. On the contrary, their attention was focused on the battle between the Zhuo Clan, the Hun Clan, and the Wu Clan.

 

Most likely, the Divine Eternal Clan would not be spared either. They would eventually be dragged into the war. In such a situation, what was the death of a Divine Son?

 

“Li Yang was definitely murdered. His Bloodline and my Bloodline are connected. Furthermore, I clearly sensed his fear and helplessness right before his death. I once bestowed him with a drop of True Blood just to prevent such a situation. But I never imagined that I would sense the energy fluctuations of the Eternal Divine Furnace and another Eternal Divine Artifact.”

 

At this moment, a dignified middle-aged man stood inside the Divine Eternal Clan’s ancestral hall with his hands behind his back. Underneath the cover of his sleeves, his hands were tightly clenched. He was broad-chested and extremely tall. When he blinked his dark golden eyes, the endless Law of Dao circulated within his eyes like the orbit of the Sun and the Moon.

 

“I will definitely destroy the Azure Sky Realm.” This person was none other than the current Leader of the Divine Eternal Clan and Li Yang’s Biological Father, Li Motian.

 

“Leader, please reconsider. The Immortal Spirit Civilisation is in chaos right now. Moreover, the situation between the Zhuo Clan and the Wu Clan has not been decided yet. It won’t be good if we recklessly rush forward…”

 

The rest of the Divine Eternal Clan Elders stood beside Li Motian. Since it was a matter regarding the Divine Son’s death, many Clansmen had rushed over when they heard the news.

 

Li Motian had poured great effort into Li Yang, hoping to nurture the latter as the future Successor of the Divine Eternal Clan. It had not occurred to him that Li Yang would suffer such a tragic death inside the Azure Sky Realm on this trip.

 

Many of the Clansmen would most likely have a hard time accepting the truth. After all, Li Yang’s death basically meant that the Divine Eternal Clan had lost one of their future pillars. The resources that they previously poured into him had also been for nothing.

 

“There’s no need to discuss this matter further. I’ve already made up my mind to wield the Eternal Divine Sword and break open the Azure Sky Realm. Then, I will personally bring back both the Eternal Divine Furnace and the other Eternal Divine Artifact.

 

“Elders, there’s no need to persuade me otherwise. If something unexpected occurs, I am willing to bear the responsibility for everything.” Li Motian’s expression was calm yet intimidating. Over the years, he had accumulated great prestige among the Divine Eternal Clan. Hence, after listening to his declaration, the Elders could not attempt to persuade him again.

 

Deep inside the Ancestral Hall came the humming sound of a sword, and then billions of sword-like beams abruptly seemed to burst forth from within. A divine sword that resembled a rainbow flew out and landed in Li Motian’s hand with a roar that was deafening enough to shake the entire universe.

 

Holding the Eternal Divine Sword in one hand, Li Motian ripped open Spacetime with his other hand. His figure instantly vanished out of sight in the next moment.

 

For an existence like him, distance no longer held any meaning. He could effortlessly travel through countless Great Universes in the blink of an eye.

 

“The Leader has always been harsh and strict towards the Divine Son, but he actually cherishes the Divine Son greatly. It’s just that he has never shown his affection before.”

 

“He had such a deep love for the previous Saintess. If not for that man and his vicious scheme to take the Saintess away, everything that happened afterwards would not have taken place…”

 

The Elders of the Divine Eternal Clan could not help sighing at the sight before them.

 

The death of the current Divine Son had not caused any serious damage to the Divine Eternal Clan. Therefore, only reason for Li Motian’s anger was that Li Yang had been the Son born between him and the previous Saintess.

 

*Clang!* A sword-like beam slashed across the sky, seeming to illuminate the eternal night and causing the River of Time to shudder from the impact. Spacetime split open, penetrated in half by the path created. Then, the Divine Eternal Clan’s Leader descended with the Divine Artifact, the Eternal Divine Sword, in his hand.

 

His strength was absolutely terrifying. Reaching across the infinite distance, he slashed in the direction of the area where the Azure Sky Realm was located.

 

Under the brilliant sword-like beam, even the aura of the Grand Dao was obliterated. Meanwhile, the stars trembled from the impact as though on the verge of falling. The attack had shaken countless universes in the surroundings. Numerous people shuddered in fear and instinctively cowered on the ground.

 

“This is insane! Is he trying to kill everybody!?”

 

Many of the cultivators nearby were frightened out of their wits and hastily searched for ways to escape. Most of them were also furious, but they were powerless to do anything about the situation. Their only option was to flee with all their strength.

 

Li Motian was considered young. There was no denying that he was far inferior to existences such as Zhuo Fengxie and Hun Yuanjun, whose fame had spread across the universe since ancient times. However, he was still not to be underestimated. His strength had undoubtedly reached an unfathomable level. That was especially true as he was even more invincible with the Eternal Divine Sword in his hands.

 

The previous sword-like beam seemed to last for an eternity. Innumerable sword-like beams tore apart the void and the universe to arrive at this spot.

 

The whole world was illuminated by the glow of the sword, accompanied by Dao Light. This assault threatened to destroy the portal of the Azure Sky Realm.

 

“The Clan Leader has arrived…”

 

The Divine Eternal Clan Elders outside the Azure Sky Realm were just as shocked. They had taken action to seal off the surrounding universes and Spacetime so that no being could escape. However, they had not expected Li Motian to arrive with the Eternal Divine Sword in hand to break into the Azure Sky Realm.

 

At this moment, many powerful figures in the Immortal Spirit Civilisation sensed the disturbance and glanced over in this direction. Even experts on the battlefield between the Zhuo Clan and the Wu Clan were similarly shocked and horrified.

 

“I thought that the chaos caused by war between the Zhuo Clan and the other Forces was already an inconceivable and indescribable disaster. It never occurred to me that the Divine Eternal Clan’s Leader would appear with the Clan’s Divine Artifact to break into the Azure Sky Realm. Could it be that even he is not exempt from the pain of losing a child?”

 

Innumerable people were filled with disbelief, thinking that the situation was almost inconceivable.

 

Li Motian passed through countless universes and Spacetime. When his True Body arrived at the place where the Azure Sky Realm was located, he slashed down without saying a word.

 

The destructive power behind his attack caused all the World Principles to become distorted and broken.

 

“From today onwards, there’s no need for the Azure Sky Realm to exist in this world anymore.” His voice was frosty. His Dharma Body was immeasurably large, standing almost shoulder to shoulder with the universe. Even the galaxy could not compare to a strand of his hair. It was a terrifying and horrifying scene.

 

Standing there with the divine sword held diagonally before him, he continuously slashed at the Azure Sky Realm. Just the dissipating aftermath was enough to destroy the surrounding Star Territories and reduce them to dust. It was difficult to imagine what terrifying impact would be felt if one were exposed directly to the attacks.

 

“This isn’t like Li Motian. Although it is normal for him to be angry over his Son’s death, I can’t believe he is doing this despite the risk of offending countless Forces! There are many youths from various Forces inside the Azure Sky Realm… destroying it now would doom them all!”

 

“There’s probably something inside the Azure Sky Realm that deserves his attention. His actions must be an act to distract others!”

 

The supreme beings with some connection to Li Motian speculated among themselves with flickering gazes. They believed that everything was part of Li Motian’s plans.

 

Outside the Azure Sky Realm, the shock waves continued without stopping. There were as many as several billion sword lights. Li Motian endlessly slashed down with his sword, as though trying to move the Great Universes in the surroundings. The power he wielded was unparalleled and astounding.

 

“Why does it feel like the Azure Sky Realm is shaking…”

 

“What is happening!?”

 

At this moment, all those in the Azure Sky Realm could feel the ground shaking beneath their feet. Even the sky above their heads trembled endlessly. It was just that they could not see what was happening outside the Azure Sky Realm. If they could see the scene outside, they would surely be frightened out of their wits and horrified to the core.

 

The existence of the Azure Sky Realm was extremely special. It was said to have evolved from the treasure vault of the Eternal Prime God.

 

The Internal Principles had been perfected by him in the past, so it could be considered a Small Universe that he created himself. Anyone would be suppressed inside the Azure Sky Realm. Similarly, the Forces from the outside world would not be able to destroy the Azure Sky Realm within a short time.

 

At this time, a mysterious resonating force came from within to dismantle the Principles and rules of the Azure Sky Realm. It was clear Li Motian knew about the mysterious force. That was why he wielded the Eternal Divine Sword and attempted to break into the Azure Sky Realm.

 

“Was there an earthquake just now? Or, is somebody from the outside world attacking this place?”

 

Wang He, who was standing outside the ancient cave, raised his head to look at the sky and wondered to himself with a deep frown. Being a very cautious man, he did not immediately try to approach the cave after he arrived at this place. The corpses scattered in the surroundings were the best proof.

 

However, the entire mountain including the cave had trembled for a moment while he was investigating the area. He even sensed that an extremely overwhelming aura awakening inside the cave and resonating with the outside world. It was so powerful that he could not help feeling scared and hesitant.

 

The Divine Eternal Clan’s Saintess definitely harboured malicious intentions. Otherwise, she would not have forced him to search for the treasure in her stead.

 

“Forget it. Let’s go with the original plans and find a place to hide for the time being. If the guy with the surname Gu is with Mu Yan, then he will eventually come here.”

 

While Wang He had been investigating the surroundings, he also placed some of his own traps in the area.

 

Several fragmented Arrays from ancient times had been buried at many spots, but they were genuine Dao Realm Arrays. Once these Arrays were activated, they would become Killing Arrays.  At that point, their power was unimaginable.

 

He had been very careful. Since he had to confront Gu Changge, then he had to bring out everything in his arsenal. He could not afford to underestimate his enemy or be negligent with his preparations. After all, Gu Changge’s origins were mysterious. There was no saying whether he had numerous means of protection. Besides, his strength was also a mystery.

 

Wang He had naturally assumed that Gu Changge was a Quasi-Dao Realm expert with strength comparable to his own, which was the most powerful cultivation anyone could have to be allowed into the Azure Sky Realm.

 

At this point, Wang He believes he was a lion hunting a rabbit with all his might.
