LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 144-3: Chen Daoxuan Descends the Mountain, Destroying the Eastern Domain Part 3
Seeing the situation, Chen Daoxuan remained unperturbed. With a thought, a magnificent throne materialized. Its body was crafted entirely from the Enlightenment Tea Tree, emitting flowing Dao patterns that mesmerized anyone who cast a glance.
This throne was something he had casually created during his leisure time over the past few days. Although it utilized a fair amount of material, they were all branches of the Enlightenment Tea Tree, and their collection didn't harm the tree itself.
Chen Daoxuan seated himself regally upon the throne, positioned above everyone's heads. Yu Youwei yawned and languidly sprawled on an armrest. Meanwhile, Li Yourong thoughtfully massaged her master's shoulder.
"Finally, there's no need to worry about anything anymore. Hehe."
Chen Daoxuan felt content with the current state of affairs. He no longer needed to confine himself to the Virtual Illusionary Mountain.
"Fairy Leng, our Flying Cloud Sect doesn't wish to be your enemy. Our actions earlier were out of desperation, coerced by the Jiang Family! We are willing to pay any price to seek your forgiveness!"
Tong Wen's face paled as he saw Leng Yanran approaching. Ever since Leng Yanran defeated the three Void Refining Realm experts, he had begun to regret his choices.
The terrifying master of Fairy Leng had them gasping for breath.
"Price? You can't afford it."
Leng Yanran snorted and dismissed their pleas. Gripping the God Slaying Spear, she charged toward the Flying Cloud Sect forces situated atop a mountain peak.
She descended upon them like a wolf amidst sheep, claiming countless lives with each passing moment. The Divinity Separation Realm Master of the Flying Cloud Sect watched in agony as his grand heritage teetered on the brink. Would it all crumble to dust?
"Senior! Flying Cloud Sect is willing to become your subordinate from now on, Senior. Please spare us!"
Kneeling before Chen Daoxuan, the Flying Cloud Sect Master begged with gritted teeth, recognizing that only this powerful existence could save them from the brink of destruction.
"Noisy!"
Leng Yanran scoffed at their attempt to seek her master's mercy, charging forward without hesitation. The Divinity Separation Realm Master of Flying Cloud Sect was shocked and moved to defend himself.
After two clashes, Leng Yanran prepared to strike again.
"Yanran, too slow."
Chen Daoxuan yawned and furrowed his brow, observing the scene below with an air of slight dissatisfaction.
"Master, it's the disciple's inadequacy…"
Leng Yanran, upon hearing her master's words, lowered her head in shame. The techniques and treasures bestowed upon her by her master were the pinnacle of existence in this world, yet she couldn't meet her master's expectations.
"No worries, after this return to the mountain, I will enhance your strength," Chen Daoxuan reassured. "Come back."
He was reluctant to delay further. Since descending from the mountain, he had felt a gaze silently watching him, making him quite uncomfortable.
Upon hearing her master's words, Leng Yanran shot a chilly glance at the Divinity Separation Realm Master of the Flying Cloud Sect. Without a word, she returned to her master's we are also willing to become your subordinates! Please spare our lives, Senior!"
Seeing this, many factions believed it was due to the effect of the Flying Cloud Sect Master's plea, and they promptly knelt down to imitate.
The Flying Cloud Sect Master finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the senior spared their lives, any price would be worthwhile. At the very least, their lives were intact. Moreover, becoming subservient to the senior might not be a bad thing. It could even be considered an opportunity!
"Youwei, go ahead. Wrap it up quickly. I'm tired of watching."
Chen Daoxuan said nonchalantly, as if the words of those people below were mere ant chatter, unworthy of his attention.
"Meow…"
Upon hearing her master's words, Youwei lightly leaped down from her master's side.
Seeing the appearance of this adorable little girl, confusion filled the minds of those present. Especially with those animal ears, apart from her slightly cuter appearance, she emitted no aura whatsoever. It was as if her cultivation level didn't even exist. Could this little girl really handle them all?
"Offending the Heavenly Dao Pavilion, you all deserve death," Youwei muttered discontentedly, flashing her tiny tiger teeth.
Suddenly, everyone's gaze shifted to the sky above. The once-clear sky was now covered by dense dark clouds.
"No, this isn't… Those aren't ordinary clouds, those are tribulation clouds!?"
"What's happening? Why would tribulation clouds appear suddenly? Could it be that someone has broken through in such a high-pressure situation and is undergoing tribulation!? But that doesn't make sense. Even if it's a Divinity Separation Realm breakthrough or a Void Refining realm breakthrough, it shouldn't attract heavenly tribulation!"
The people of the Eastern Region were baffled by the appearance of the tribulation clouds. Each person was trembling in fear, their legs weak. What frightened them the most was the realization that the tribulation clouds seemed to be targeting them!
"I've only just attained the Profound Sky Realm… Why would tribulation clouds be coming for me!?"
"I've just reached the Void Sky Realm… Yet the tribulation clouds have already locked onto my aura!"
"This isn't right... Something's amiss! This tribulation cloud is summoned by that girl with animal ears!"
Even those who were slow to react could tell that these tribulation clouds were far from ordinary. Looking over, they saw the girl with animal ears emitting arcs of electricity all over her body. Her eyes had turned purple, flashing like the heavenly thunder within the tribulation clouds!
"What… exactly is this existence?"
The Great Elder of the Holy Mountain, along with the forces not targeted by the tribulation clouds, fell into silence as they gazed at the girl with animal ears. The ability to summon tribulation clouds, something they couldn't even approach, was incredibly frightening.
Anyone capable of overcoming heavenly tribulation in this world had already achieved ascension. No one within this world could withstand the power of heavenly tribulation. In other words, this little girl could potentially suppress every existence within this realm!
"Boom—"
"Boom—"
"Boom—"
As the tribulation clouds covered thousands of miles, the brewing thunder tribulation finally erupted. In an instant, the Eastern Region, which had already been in the evening hours, suddenly became as bright as day. Everyone involuntarily shut their eyes, nearly blinded by the tens of thousands of lightning bolts that struck simultaneously.
After a considerable time had passed, the people could slowly open their eyes, peering through narrowed slits to observe the scene before them.
The entire Miasma Forest was now devoid of its miasma, brilliantly illuminated. Even most of the trees within the forest had been reduced to fragments amidst the myriad heavenly lightning bolts.
As for the figures of those forces... they were gone. Completely vanished from the world, their bodies and souls dispersed into nothingness.
The number of people present had suddenly decreased by half. Coupled with the deafening roars of the celestial lightning just now, those who survived barely heard any screams. It felt like a dream, realizing that those people were no longer in existence.
"Tsk, they've turned to ashes now. No need for redemption," Chen Daoxuan muttered in mild surprise as he observed the outcome. With their souls scattered, redemption would be a pointless endeavor.
"Do a little favor for this Pavilion Master, " he continued. "Send all the heavenly materials and treasures of these forces to the Illusory Void Mountain. This Pavilion Master still has to visit the Jiang Clan in the Western Region… and perhaps drop by for a visit."
Chen Daoxuan cast a casual glance at the dumbfounded Great Elder of the Holy Mountain and finished his sentence. He then recalled Yu Youwei with a wave of his hand, summoning another spatial rift.
Before the Great Elder of the Holy Mountain could regain his senses to respond, Chen Daoxuan and his disciples had already vanished from the sight of the onlookers.
"…I miscalculated...Senior Chen's strength, let alone the Jiang family, seems to be no difficulty even if it is to suppress the entire demon clan in the Western Regions..."
