If these attackers don't resist, these sword cultivators can easily wreak havoc and leave. But if they really get serious, their Divine Cauldron Sect will be in grave danger!
When did the alchemy sect fall to such a state?
In the past, the Divine Cauldron Sect controlled the entire Qian Yuan Continent's supply of medicinal pills. Whenever they went out, people from every sect treated them with utmost respect, and their status among the six sects of Qian Yuan was always far ahead.
The Danxiu sect doesn't need cultivators with high combat power, because their skills are their best combat strength.
No one wants to offend the Divine Cauldron Sect. If they were to be approached by other sects, they would actively protect them in order to leave a better impression.
Isn't that precisely the advantage of alchemy cultivation?
But look at the present. The Lianfeng Sword Sect, a sword sect, has overstepped its bounds and taken on the work of alchemists, opening pill shops all over the entire Qian Yuan Western Region, while other sects have clearly changed their course.
Who would want to offend the Lianfeng Sword Sect, which possesses both martial prowess and medicinal pills?
So during the five years they were harassed, none of the other sects that had previously maintained good relations with them were willing to lend a hand, not even one to plead for them!
How did their Divine Cauldron Sect get to this point?
The elders thought about it, and realized that all of this happened after Fan Hongde, the sect leader, took office!
Their Divine Cauldron Sect used to be so glorious! But ever since this sect leader took office, he has shown a great bias towards his own daughter. However, they always thought this was only human nature and did not interfere much.
No wonder the ancestral teachings always emphasized the word "virtue". The sect tolerated Fan Hongde, and even when he committed the evil deed of replacing someone's spiritual root, they just pretended not to see it and covered it up.
As expected, he ultimately brought disaster upon the sect!
Having become involved with demonic cultivators, and with their sect leader nowhere to be found, their Divine Cauldron Sect has declined year by year in recent years, to the point that they can hardly even recruit a disciple now.
If someone came knocking on their door like that, even if the elders who were in seclusion didn't call them, they should have known about it. But they didn't show up, probably because they knew that even if they came out, it would be of no use.
Fortunately, the rules of the Divine Cauldron Sect stipulate that if the sect leader disappears without cause for more than ten years, he will automatically be dismissed and replaced by someone else.
Counting them up, ten years will pass quickly.
Even if it's soon, it will still take two years. It's really unbearable that these people are coming to bully us like this.
The people of the Lianfeng Sword Sect, however, disregarded their complicated thoughts. Seeing the Divine Cauldron Sect's protective array flickering between light and shadow, they were determined to take advantage of their misfortune.
So, in the instant that the icy blue arc of light dimmed, the seven seized the opportunity and simultaneously drew their swords, smashing them towards the main hall that was shrouded in the formation.
The great formation seemed desperate to create a barrier to resist the invasion from the outside. It shone brightly for a moment, blocking the seven people's attack, and then it looked even dimmer.
Is it really that difficult to exert yourself all at once?
The seven men raised an eyebrow at each other. If they didn't act now, when would they?
So the seven members of the Lianfeng Sword Sect simultaneously drew their swords from mid-air to attack the sect buildings of the Shending Sect.
At first, the formation could still squeeze out some of its potential to resist, but later, after a huge lightning tribulation struck down, it stopped moving completely.
The seven members of the Lianfeng Sword Sect launched an attack that struck the main hall, instantly turning it into ruins.
A group of people sighed, rubbing their foreheads. They had already experienced something similar five years ago. The main hall was now built with magical artifacts by a craftsman, which was the only way to quickly restore the main peak's operation.
And now, the rebuilt main hall has also fallen into disrepair once again...
Ke Qiansong stepped forward and frowned at the seven members of the Lianfeng Sword Sect, saying, "Why is this happening! Why must our sects be so ruthless! Why must we be so determined to exterminate them all!"
Elder Jia, one of the seven, chuckled and said, "Where is the extermination? Have we ever killed a single one of you? Yet you killed our disciple!"
"This!" Ke Qiansong was furious. They hadn't killed anyone, but they had destroyed property!
In recent years, the expenses of the Divine Cauldron Sect have increased by hundreds or even thousands of times. The sect's protective array alone is a considerable expense, not to mention the buildings and objects they destroyed, resulting in countless losses.
Seeing Elder Jia's relaxed manner, Ke Qiansong was furious, but there was nothing he could do but be angry.
They are now extremely exhausted from all this, and they only hope that the Divine Cauldron Sect can calm down soon and stop making things difficult for them, or that Shi Xuan, wherever he is, can come back alive and erase the fact that the Divine Cauldron Sect killed its disciples.
Little did they know that Shi Xuan had already returned, and was on the mountain behind them.
Shi Xuan had no idea that what she thought would lead to an attack by the Divine Cauldron Sect was actually something that if the people of the Divine Cauldron Sect had found her, they would have wanted to immediately treat her like royalty and send her back to the Lianfeng Sword Sect with fanfare.
The thunder continued, and it kept intensifying.
The intervals between each lightning strike were also longer, and each time it required accumulating more power before it would fall.
This tribulation cloud was already several times thicker and covered a larger area than ordinary tribulation clouds when it gathered, and now, coupled with its anger, it used all its strength.
The scene was even more magnificent than when Lin Daozi underwent the Void Refinement Tribulation last time, leaving people speechless.
At this moment, apart from Shi Xuan, no one else could have imagined that the person at the center of this tribulation was undergoing a Nascent Soul Tribulation, and no one had ever seen such a Nascent Soul Tribulation.
Ninety-three...
This bolt of lightning was so black it shone, its entire body enveloped in silver light, the lightning so abundant it completely covered the lightning itself.
When it crashed down, the entire back mountain shook.
After struggling weakly for a couple of moments, the protective mountain formation went out completely.
The people of the Divine Cauldron Sect were utterly shocked. Their sect's protective array was the very foundation of their sect. They had heard tales of other sects breaching their protective arrays during attacks. But this time, their sect's array had been inexplicably destroyed by heavenly lightning!
Speaking of which, just as people have luck, so do sects.
The protective array that was damaged by lightning can be re-established, but the human heart is difficult to control.
Many disciples felt that the Divine Cauldron Sect was nearing its end, and Heaven was punishing them. Otherwise, why would Heavenly Lightning strike and destroy their great formation?
Once people's hearts are scattered, it is extremely difficult to bring them back together.
In broad daylight, under the watchful eyes of everyone, their Divine Cauldron Sect's protective array was destroyed by heavenly lightning. What does this mean?
This is practically announcing to the world that their Divine Cauldron Sect has done something against the will of Heaven and has been punished!
Ke Qiansong nearly vomited blood. Just who was this powerful being undergoing tribulation in the back mountain? Couldn't he have gone to a more distant place to undergo it?
When the ninety-fourth bolt of heavenly lightning struck, the very foundation of the array was destroyed, rendering the mountain-protecting array completely useless!
