At this moment, above the vast ancient city.
Endless divine light rose, and the blazing white light engulfed everything. The void was constantly shattering, like mirrors crashing to pieces, revealing nothingness.
A golden light suddenly appeared in the void, followed by ripples.
An old man with a full head of white hair and a weathered face fled from the void, as if he were running away from some terrible evil. His face showed an indescribable fear, but then his fear turned into joy.
"Hahaha"
"I finally escaped!"
Looking at this familiar, desolate ancient city, the old man laughed heartily.
"No matter how strong you are, you will eventually perish at the hands of my Golden-Winged Roc clan."
"Jin Hong, Jin Fei, your sacrifice was worthwhile!"
After Fang Wu, like a god or a demon, directly crushed one of the quasi-saints who had come with him, the old man and another late-stage quasi-saint decisively chose to burn their lifespans and unleash a full-force attack.
Finally, another late-stage Quasi-Saint Golden-Winged Roc chose to burn everything, perishing together with the powerful figure from the Underworld wearing a golden mask. The terrifying aura, like the restart of chaos, broke through the great formation with a slight ripple. The old man seized that gap and escaped the great formation, but the terrifying aftershocks nearly destroyed his physical body. To rebuild his body, he would probably need countless rare treasures and hundreds of years.
Fortunately, it was all worth it.
In the old man's mind, exchanging two Quasi-Saints for one supreme prodigy among Quasi-Saints was still a very good deal.
Otherwise, such a terrifying existence, once the Great Conflict begins, would likely grow rapidly to a level that is beyond the reach of others in a very short time.
He might even become one of the strongest beings in the Three Thousand Dao Domains!
At that time, it will probably be the end of his Golden-Winged Roc clan!
Glancing at the space behind him that had turned into nothingness, the old man finally felt relieved. To survive unscathed from the self-destruction of a late-stage Quasi-Saint, who had burned everything away, was something only a Saint could achieve.
But if a Saint Realm expert really makes a move, endless heavenly punishment will fall.
Now is a critical moment when the imperial power still lingers and the Heavenly Dao is accumulating its Dao fruits again. We cannot allow experts above the Saint level to act recklessly.
"Emerging is a quasi-saint level expert from the Golden-Winged Roc clan."
"Could it be that the underworld has been defeated?"
"The aftershocks were terrifying; for a moment just now, it felt as if the sky itself had collapsed."
"Under such lingering power, those who do not enter the realm of sainthood will ultimately remain mere ants."
Just when everyone thought the Underworld had been completely wiped out, a huge crack suddenly appeared in the sky, and an endless, terrifying aura capable of destroying all living beings poured out.
A group of familiar figures appeared before the crowd.
"How is that possible?"
Why were you all unharmed?
Looking at the crowd that appeared before him, the old man was bewildered, his eyes revealing unspeakable despair and fear.
It's one thing that the man with the golden mask didn't die, but why were everyone in the underworld unharmed, even Chen Xiao, who was only at the Tongxuan Realm, standing in front of him unscathed?
For a moment, the old man even doubted that he was hallucinating.
Fang Wu simply watched him quietly.
It was just a self-destruction by a quasi-saint. Even if a saint were to take action, it would probably take a long time to completely destroy the protective item given by that supreme figure from the underworld.
"Ha ha ha ha"
"This is all an illusion!"
"Who on earth is playing tricks on my Golden-Winged Roc clan? Aren't you afraid of the future retribution of my Golden-Winged Roc clan?"
The old man roared at the sky with a ferocious expression, his white hair disheveled, looking like a madman.
The many powerful figures who witnessed this scene fell silent.
The old man wasn't really crazy.
That was a quasi-saint powerhouse standing at the pinnacle of all living beings, while he was not even a powerhouse who had just begun to enter the ranks of quasi-saints.
At this moment, his Dao heart has completely collapsed, and he is like a madman. Even if he survives, he will be a cripple and not worth mentioning.
What kind of situation could force a quasi-saint to such a state?
Looking at the old man whose Dao heart had collapsed, Fang Wu couldn't help but feel a little bored.
Then, with a flick of his finger, a divine light burst forth from the old man's body.
Under this terrifying attack, the old man vanished from the face of the earth.
Once everything had settled down, Fang Wu nodded toward the depths of the ancient city, then tore through space and led the group from the Underworld away.
"Three Quasi-Saints have perished in the Golden-Winged Roc clan in a single day!"
"I'm afraid the Golden-Winged Roc clan will not be able to swallow this insult."
"Now it's no longer a question of whether the Golden-Winged Roc clan can swallow this insult, but whether the Underworld is willing to let the Golden-Winged Roc clan go."
"What do you mean by that, fellow Daoist?"
"It is said that terrifying fluctuations of energy are emanating from the Ten Thousand Demon Forest, indicating that an earth-shattering battle has broken out. Our sect elders have sent word that Jin Gu, the Great Elder of the Golden-Winged Roc clan, has been nailed to death in the void. The Golden-Winged Roc clan is likely in grave danger."
"Even the Great Elder of the Golden-Winged Roc clan, a peak Quasi-Saint, has perished, and right at his own doorstep? If what you say is true, Fellow Daoist, then the Golden-Winged Roc clan is truly in danger of extinction this time."
"I never expected the Underworld to be so powerful, attempting to annihilate a top-tier ancient royal family in a single move."
"Is this level of excitement even before the great era of contention has begun?"
"The most outrageous thing is that this whole thing started because of a mere Golden-Winged Roc chick."
"The world is unpredictable, and fate plays tricks on us. Perhaps this is Heaven's retribution for the abominations of the Golden-Winged Roc clan. Every year, countless members of our human race become food for the Golden-Winged Roc clan. Now that the Golden-Winged Roc clan has been destroyed, it is a great service to our human race."
After Fang Wu led the people of the underworld away, countless Dao Gods began to communicate.
The actions of the ancient city of Cangmang have long attracted the attention of top experts in the Central Region and the Southern Wilderness.
However, no one expected that the Golden-Winged Roc clan, the ancient royal family that was once on par with the supreme races such as the True Dragon and the Divine Phoenix, would be forced to such a state by a newly emerging force.
......
"It seems I overestimated the strength of the Golden-Winged Roc clan."
Yang An gazed at the scene displayed in the Heaven-Covering Mirror.
The Heaven-Covering Mirror is now permeated with a rich power of laws, and countless worlds are reflected within it.
At this moment, Yang An spent nearly ten million top-grade divine resources to upgrade the Heaven-Covering Mirror to the Quasi-Immortal level.
Although it cannot reach the level of a true immortal artifact, only a few long-lived families and ancient beings across the three thousand Dao Domains are qualified to wield such a divine artifact.
Once the Heaven-Covering Realm erupts, even a Quasi-Emperor level cultivator could perish if they are not careful.
If a quasi-emperor were to wield the Heaven-Covering Mirror, it would likely be enough to rival an emperor!
