With the man's soft sigh.
Someone nearby also began to speak, "I actually hope we never have to gather here."
The voice carried a tone of regret and helplessness.
Indeed, unless there is a truly unstable factor, the Ten Families, including the Chasing Heaven Temple, would never convene together.
"I wonder what the matter is this time?" someone asked.
"Have none of you heard any rumors?" Supreme inquired.
On his golden mask, faint spiritual energy was in turmoil.<qsbvg> </qsbvg>
The mask was too deep to see through.
"What rumors?" someone expressed puzzlement.
"Is it another plot by the Holy Court?There shouldn't be much conflict between us and the Holy Court."
When it came to the Holy Court, these people were somewhat reluctant to become enemies.
So, at that time, regarding that matter, they somewhat gave the Holy Court many benefits.
And the things that could make the Ten Families and Chasing Heaven Temple anxious were now quite few.
At least within the Nine Domains, their combined strength could rank at the top.
"It's not about the Holy Court. Do you remember the last time we gathered?" Supreme asked.
"True Martial Holy Sect?" someone immediately recalled.
The last time was to extinguish the True Martial Holy Sect, which was why everyone gathered.
"Could they be reviving?
But it shouldn't be, we personally eradicated those people before.
There should be no accidents."
"We currently don't have much information," Supreme replied.
"But there's no need for doubt.
True Martial Holy Sect has already begun moving.
I've found some clues, but someone is hiding very well, and I couldn't find anything in the end."
"The Ancient Dragon Nation has been destroyed," someone else said.
"Whether it's an accident or the True Martial Holy Sect making a comeback, they should be exterminated in the bud," someone huffed coldly.
It was evident that he harbored intense hatred for the True Martial Holy Sect.
"Does Friend Gongshu have any good suggestions?"
"What suggestions are needed? If we unite, not even the peak True Martial Holy Sect could prevail.
Let alone their current state," Friend Gongshu replied.
"The situation is unclear now. I think rushing into battle is not suitable," someone shook their head and replied.
"The intelligence of our Ten Families spans the entire Heaven Extreme Realm.
I think we should first gather intelligence.
Even the slyest fox exposes its tail," someone suggested.
Hearing this suggestion, many still agreed.
Once the situation is clear, then we'll decide what to do.
Ultimately, Supreme made the decision.
He said, "Alright then, seven days.
I need all intelligence regarding the True Martial Holy Sect, and after seven days, we'll discuss plans."
He decided with finality.
The crowd still trusted Chasing Heaven Temple.
After all, last time it was Chasing Heaven Temple that led the charge to extinguish the True Martial Holy Sect.
Then, everyone left Chasing Heaven Temple.
Throughout the Heaven Extreme Realm, countless spies began to seek out intelligence.
The Heaven Extreme Realm was engulfed in this tense atmosphere.
......
Within the Ancient Dragon Nation, Xu Zimei was now entering a peculiar state.
His eyes were tightly closed, and the grayish mist surrounding him had completely enveloped him.
In the cocoon, he seemed to be reborn from the fire, shedding his old self.
The Holy King, this realm is the ultimate domain of the Great Saint.
It is also the final realm.
Next is to break through the eleventh Vein Gate and reach the Taoist Fruit Realm.
Around Xu Zimei, spiritual energy had already become a deluge.
The vast spiritual energy infused the entire void.
Especially inside his body, where, in front of that unique eleventh Vein Gate, the spiritual energy gathered into an ocean.
Though not breaking through the Vein Gate.
The scale of the spiritual energy grew larger, continuously flowing.
Its Principles became a sea.
Xu Zimei's Principles were infinite, comprising countless types together.
Thus, his Principle Sea was multicolored.
Unlike those with singular Principles, whose Principle Sea would just be of one color.
The Principle Sea is a mark of the Holy King.
The Principle Sea surged, transforming into strands of gas, floating towards Xu Zimei's body.
At this moment, in his retreat chamber.
The spiritual energy couldn't be contained and began to accumulate ceaselessly towards the sky.
Before long, the spiritual energy was just like a ceaselessly flowing Changhe, hanging upside down across the firmament for millions of miles.
It majestically obscured the firmament.
A spiritual energy pillar connected the firmament and Xu Zimei.
Outside the door, Ancestor Liuyue observed this sight.
Left with only reverence and admiration.
"Is this the power of Ancestor?" murmured Ancestor Liuyue.
"This power is far beyond that of an ordinary Great Saint.
Perhaps it already ranks as a peak Holy King."
"Master," Wang Hengzhi also came over after hearing the news, happily saying.
"With Ancestor being so strong, it's a blessing for our True Martial Holy Sect."
"Though that's the case, our Ancestor, in any view, isn't someone to easily worry about," Ancestor Liuyue laughed.
"But after all this, I still find it quite well.
Rather than lying low in the True Martial Holy Sect, being bullied by anyone.
We might as well fight alongside the Ancestor.
Whether we succeed or not, even if we die, it's worthwhile."
"Why shouldn't men carry the hook and take the fifteen states of the mountain pass," Wang Hengzhi laughed.
"If we die, it's of no concern.
It's just a pity for the younger generation."
"It's fine, we don't expect them to fight.
It's good for them to see the world," Ancestor Liuyue said.
The two of them were chatting, only to see above the firmament, where the gathered spiritual energy Changhe began to transform.
Endless might pressed down.
Everyone in the Ancient Dragon Nation felt a heaviness, such was the oppressive force.
This spiritual energy Changhe was so formidable.
Gathered as a sea, vast and free as the sky.
Encompassing all things, unfathomable.
Outside the Imperial Palace, Zhao Zhoutian among others were still pondering.
Suddenly, they saw the scene above.
Zhao Zhoutian finally decided, "It seems, I should go and pay a visit to this True Martial Holy Sect."
"Second Grandpa, we, the people of the Ten Families, why bother paying a visit to a single True Martial Holy Sect.
Even though they destroyed the Ancient Dragon Nation.
The Ancient Dragon Nation was no more than ants.
However powerful they might be, can they be stronger than our Ten Families?" Zhao Danyang asked in dissatisfaction.
"You're still young and can't see certain things.
Visiting them can also be viewed as a probe."
"A probe," Zhao Danyang was half puzzled, half understanding.
He asked, "But Second Grandpa, you mentioned before.
This True Martial Holy Sect has a grudge against us."
"It's not a grudge against us alone, but against all the Ten Families," Zhao Zhoutian said.
"But this time, we go only in a personal capacity to pay a visit.
Not as representatives of the Ten Families.
So it shouldn't matter."
"Alright then," Zhao Danyang could only nod.
He followed behind Zhao Zhoutian, heading toward the Imperial Palace of the Ancient Dragon Nation.
This Ancient Dragon Nation's Imperial Palace, in their view, was rather ordinary.
Compared to their Zhao Family, it was far behind by a huge margin.
