"What's the situation with other sects?" Chu Yao asked.
"The incident happened suddenly. Now neither sound transmission nor flying talismans can be used. I have sent disciples on horseback to the two nearby sects to investigate, hoping to find out what's going on." said the head of the sect, Chen Qingyu.
"Master Chen, I'm not exaggerating. But if this is truly the work of a Divine Transformation cultivator, today will be a catastrophe for our Tianyin Sect. We'd better make plans early."
"Of course." Master Chen sighed. "A team of elite disciples has been..."
Before he finished speaking, a disciple's cry of surprise suddenly came from outside the hall:
"It's getting dark!"
"What is that?!"
Everyone in the hall was shocked. Upon hearing the sound, Chu Yao also teleported out with the other elders, and then saw a scene that she would never forget in her life.
The blue sky of yesteryear was gone; an inky darkness enveloped everything. It was as if a nearly circular crack had been torn through the sky, revealing the starry sky beyond. This darkness, like the giant hand of an ancient god, shattered the sun and the clouds with overwhelming force.
The edge of darkness continued to creep, and throughout the Tianyin Sect, it felt as if day had turned to night. Only a distant, clear blue shadow could be seen on the horizon. Chu Yao's spiritual awareness was blocked, and she could only rely on her naked eyes to observe what it was. At first, she truly believed the sky had "cracked," but what she discovered later shattered the worldview she had cultivated for a century.
She didn't know how to describe it. It seemed to be a massive oval stone, but the dense, mechanical-like protrusions and patterns on it indicated it was anything but natural. The stone was pitch black, but the bottom, facing the ground, faintly shimmered with fire, which was why she had mistaken it for a starry sky. As this indescribable giant stone fell, a chilling wind howled for a hundred miles around the Tianyin Sect. A piercing humming sound echoed from the sky, giving everyone a splitting headache. As the stone's true form gradually became apparent, it was revealed.
It... is a boat?
This was Chu Yao's first impression of it. She couldn't help but recall the surprise and excitement she felt when she first saw the sea and the huge ship as a child. Now, over three hundred years old, seeing this giant ship from outer space was like returning to her childhood.
In front of such a huge creation, even a powerful cultivator can be as small as an ant.
Later, Chu Yao learned that its name was the Star-class battleship.
A dead silence fell. Everyone in the sect, from the Grand Elders to the menial disciples, was stunned by what they saw.
"It, it seems to have stopped?"
A disciple said this weakly, and everyone looked at him intently, finally breathing a sigh of relief, but still unsure what to do. Then, Sect Leader Chen gathered his limited spiritual energy and slowly flew into the air:
"Chen Qingyu, the 79th generation head of the Tianyin Sect, greets you, Senior! My younger generation, with our low cultivation, was unaware of your arrival. We apologize for not welcoming you. Please enter the sect and have a chat!"
No one responded.
Sect Leader Chen was not discouraged, but tried again, but still no one answered. When he spoke for the third time, something strange happened.
A dazzling golden beam of light suddenly shot out from the bottom of the large ship, shooting straight out. The long-activated sect protection formation was like a piece of paper, and the light passed through the formation's aura and headed towards Master Chen.
The one who reacted the fastest was Bai Yuejian. She leaped up and a magical weapon was sent flying, protecting Sect Leader Chen. Chu Yao was shocked when she saw the magic weapon. It was clearly one of the sect's treasures, the Yin-Yang Mirror, and it was being used like that.
However, the golden light ignored it and continued to shine straight towards it. The moment it hit the Yin-Yang Mirror, it ignored it and penetrated through it. The Yin-Yang Mirror, which was designed to shock all directions, was unable to play any role at all.
"Master Chen!" Bai Yue was extremely shocked and angry. Seeing that the golden light was still weakening, he reached out to pull him, but he was still a step too slow. The moment Master Chen was covered by the light, he disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Even the Yin-Yang Mirror can't do anything about this light!"
"Run! Run! We are all going to die here!"
"Heaven and earth are cruel! Why is this so..."
The last shred of hope in their hearts was shattered, and everyone's emotions collapsed. The entire sect was in chaos. Some fled in panic, while others looked dazed. The huge sect was destroyed in a single battle.
More rays of light shot out from the giant in the sky, rampaging through the crowd. Anyone who was covered, no matter how high or low their cultivation level was, disappeared in an instant, without a trace.
Chu Yao saw a beam of light shooting towards Bai Yuejian, who instantly summoned more than ten magic weapons, including two of the sect's treasures. She seemed to be giving it a try, but it was of no use at all. Under the light, she disappeared out of thin air.
Seeing what happened to her senior sister, Chu Yao gave up struggling. She thought for a moment and released Xiaoqing from her sleeve.
"I have already released the spiritual imprint, run away now."
Xiao Ling trembled, fell to the ground, and disappeared in a flash.
"You run really fast." Chu Yao chuckled.
Well, three hundred years is almost enough. It's a pity that I haven't lived in my cave long enough...
She took one last look at her location on the mountain, and then disappeared in the dazzling golden light.
