Chapter 1369: Divine Travel Diagram
Purple Lightning Marquis had been a G.o.d for many years. n.o.body knew his exact level of cultivation. Anytime he did something, he would instantly finish off his opponents. As he made a move, s.p.a.ce itself seemed to freeze, and none of the Di Clan group managed to escape.
Purple Lightning Marquis intended to kill every last one of them to make a point that n.o.body could bully the Ziling Sect. But just as he was about to make his move, a certain diagram suddenly appeared. A terrifying G.o.dly energy rippled out and obstructed his attack.
The weather itself changed when the G.o.dly energy appeared. A powerful force appeared and covered a ma.s.sive radius, causing s.p.a.ce to twist and warp. The force wrapped around the Di Clan members, protecting them from all attacks.
“Interesting.” Purple Lightning Marquis was slightly stunned. He made a grasping motion at the divine diagram, manifesting a series of lightning bolts that shot toward the diagram.
His method of attack was incredibly profound, and not just anyone could do it. A ma.s.sive area of destruction was created around the diagram. The sky was cleared, leaving not even any cloud behind, as though the entire s.p.a.ce had been cleansed by his lightning.
The lightning faded, revealing a destroyed diagram. However, the Di Clan members were nowhere to be seen. Green Ghost and the others were greatly impressed; the reverence in their eyes when looking at Purple Lightning Marquis increased.
“Are those fellows all dead?” asked Devouring Ghost in a somewhat confused manner.
“No. They were all teleported away,” said Purple Lightning Marquis regretfully.
“Was that diagram so powerful?” asked Devouring Ghost in astonishment.
“Not really. It was a Divine Travel Diagram that could directly transport people somewhere far away to evade incoming danger. I was too careless and allowed them to escape. If I had seen it coming, all of them would have been crushed to death,” said Purple Lightning Marquis with a sigh.
“Well, that’s quite a pity. Turns out that those people have quite a background, after all,” said Devouring Ghost.
“It doesn’t matter. Can their background be stronger than those fellows from our past? Unless all those people join hands again like how they did against the overlord in the past, n.o.body can hope to do anything to the Ziling Sect,” said Purple Lightning Marquis as his eyes brimmed with confidence.
At this time, Scarlet Flame Monarch returned from the sky above. His pair of hands were still completely clean. He had been able to kill Di Ganming without letting even a drop of his opponent’s blood land on him. As for his injuries, he had mostly healed up.
It was clear that the G.o.d-grade spring water had not only allowed his astral energy to recover but had also reforged his body with great vitality. That was why he could kill both Di Ganming and the fiery dragon.
“Congratulations, second brother, for regaining your strength,” said Devouring Ghost happily.
“I’ve only recovered half my strength so far, but it feels amazing,” said Scarlet Flame Monarch in a pleased manner. He looked at Purple Lightning Marquis and said, “Big brother, those people have quite a background, it seems. Do you know who they are?”
“Of course they come from a strong background. They are all members of a bereaved royal clan. However, they aren’t an issue. Our current priority is to stabilize the Ziling Sect’s morale. I need to go look for the overlord.”
He then turned into a phantom and vanished into thin air.
“I hope the overlord is fine,” said Devouring Ghost in a worried manner.
“The overlord will be fine,” said Scarlet Flame Monarch confidently. “You’ll take care of the sect. I’ll be taking a stroll around the sect to see if there are more blind fools trying to challenge us.”
…
The Divine Travel Diagram was a divine painting made by a G.o.d Realm formation master. The diagram, capable of instantly moving someone far away, contained the prowess of a G.o.d and the concepts of G.o.d-grade formations and allowed one to escape any danger.
It was Di Mie’s trump card, something he had gotten from his ancestor. He would only use the diagram when his life was in danger. He rejoiced that he had immediately activated the Divine Travel Diagram, or all of them would have been dead.
However, Purple Lightning Marquis had broken the Divine Travel Diagram before it could fully activate. Thus, the Di Clan members had also suffered some backlash and were thrown to an unknown location. They had each had suffered serious injuries and were coughing up blood.
“d.a.m.n it! I thought you said that the Ziling Sect was nothing special? Why is there such a terrifying person there?” questioned Di Mie furiously as he glared at Di Batian.
Di Batian also had an unsightly expression. However, he did not dare to show his anger to the prince. He hurriedly apologized, “Prince, I have no idea where Xiang Shaoyun found those experts. Perhaps they are also devil spies.”
He had no choice but to blame it on the devils to remove the blame from himself.
Di Lin agreed, “That’s right. Without the devils’ help, how can Xiang Shaoyun obtain such powerful helpers? Looks like the Ziling Sect has become a base for the devils. Prince, I think we need to spread this news and have more organizations punish the Ziling Sect. That way, we can ensure their collapse without doing anything ourselves.”
“Devils again. Have those fellows invaded our world?” said Di Mie as he gnashed his teeth in anger. “Di Lin, your idea works. But it’s pointless. Even if the Ziling Sect collapses, our Di Clan will still have no springboard for our exit from seclusion. We need to think of something, or Uncle Ganming would have died for nothing.”
“They have a G.o.d among them. Do we really need to trouble the ancestor for this?” asked Di Chuan gloomily.
“Why don’t we take the Dragon Society first instead? The Dragon Society is not too far from the Ziling Sect. After taking over the Dragon Society and occupying their territory, we can fully return to the society,” proposed Di Batian.
“Dragon Society? That’s a decent name. Sure, let’s take them first,” said Di Mie with an unresigned look in his eyes.
“The Dragon Society used to be stronger than the Ziling Sect. With our current group, we can totally conquer them,” said Di Batian.
“Let’s not delay. Start heading over there while healing up,” said Di Mie, eager to show his usefulness.
“Prince, we shouldn’t act with undue haste. The Dragon Society is located very close to the Ziling Sect. If there are Ziling Sect spies there, they will be able to locate us. What if they come after us?” persuaded Di Chuan.
“What do you think we should do, then?” asked Di Mie.
“As a matter of fact, our Di Clan can easily take over a territory for ourselves. Why must we choose the Ziling Sect? It’s because the Ziling Sect occupies an ancient mountain range with rich resources, and their location is strategic, allowing them to easily expand or defend themselves in all situations. Their territory is perfect for one who wishes to achieve hegemony over large swathes of land. If we decide to change our target, I’m afraid the elders will not be pleased,” said Di Chuan. “Why don’t we return and inform the elders and have them decide instead? I believe they won’t blame us for this.”
