65: The Great War Begins
Northern Profound Empire, Empress's bedchamber.
"servant girl, has Yang Lingchen's Physique been confirmed?" asked a woman with an enchanting figure and cold, glamorous Aura, dressed in a luxurious phoenix robe.
"Replying to the Saintess, after our exhaustive investigation, Yang Lingchen is indeed of the Pure Yang Body, and it is precisely because of him that Dongfang Yunbing's cultivation level has been able to Breakthrough so rapidly," the servant girl said softly, opening her lips.
"Keep a close watch on Zhou Yuxiang for me; do not let him kill Yang Lingchen, as he is the key Cauldron for my Breakthrough," the woman in the phoenix robe said again.
Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.
Under the powerful Aura of Heavenly Origin Palace, the Southern Region had already formed a solid block. Any force that stepped into the Southern Region could not escape Yang Lingchen's keen eyes and ears.
The upper echelons of the Tiantian Sect and the Demon Cloud Sect were also completely under Yang Lingchen's control, becoming the left and right Protectors of the Southern Region.
Heavenly Origin Palace.
"Chener, news from the secret guards says that the coalition of other forces has finished assembling. How should we respond?" Dongfang Yunbing asked with a worried face.
"Sister Bing need not worry. I have already carefully set up a grand array in front of the Heavenly Origin Palace Mountain Gate, just waiting for them to walk into the trap," Yang Lingchen said confidently.
Regarding future plans, he already had a clear strategy in mind. The first step was to annex all Sects, and finally, use the strategy of surrounding the cities from the countryside to wipe out the Northern Profound Empire in one fell swoop. If he didn't achieve something significant in this world, how could he justify his special identity as a Transmigration practitioner?
Just then, Luo Qimeng walked in hurriedly and bowed, saying: "Master, the other forces have already attacked. We truly cannot hold them off."
"Let everyone drop everything at hand and retreat to Heavenly Origin Palace. It is time to give them a head-on blow," Yang Lingchen ordered methodically.
"Yes, Master." Luo Qimeng received the order and retreated.
Meanwhile.
The coalition of seven Sects was marching mightily toward the Southern Region, charging forward all the way without encountering any resistance.
The people from the Demon Cloud Sect branch and the Tiantian Sect branch were all retreating rapidly toward the direction of Heavenly Origin Palace.
"Elder Ying, to wipe out a mere Heavenly Origin Palace, why would you need to make a personal appearance?" Xue Tianming, Sect Leader of the Tianyimen, said with a smile.
"Sect Leader Xue, I am also acting under orders. Even if Heavenly Origin Palace is just an insignificant ant, we must go all out. If we delay Your Highness's grand plan, no one will have a good ending," Elder Ying said with a gloomy face.
"Elder Ying is right," Xue Tianming said, hurriedly bowing.
In front of Elder Ying, Xue Tianming was nothing more than a Junior; after all, the gap in strength between the two was vast.
"Notify the others, full speed ahead. Strive to arrive at the Heavenly Origin Palace Mountain Gate by tomorrow," Elder Ying ordered decisively.
Heavenly Origin Palace, Palace Master Hall.
Dongfang Yunbing was methodically issuing orders.
Meanwhile, during this period, Yang Lingchen had also refined countless explosive poison pills and distributed them one by one to the Disciples of Heavenly Origin Palace, while also giving them the antidote to prevent his own people from being poisoned.
With so many explosive poison pills, it provided an extra layer of protection for the Disciples below.
The next morning.
The coalition of seven Sects finally arrived in front of the Heavenly Origin Palace Mountain Gate.
Led by Yang Lingchen and Dongfang Yunbing, all the members of Heavenly Origin Palace were already prepared in full battle array, ready to welcome the fight.
"Dongfang Yunbing, Yang Lingchen, you two have wantonly slaughtered other Sects. It is not too late to surrender now, otherwise, do not blame me for being merciless," Xue Tianming said sternly.
"A bunch of idiots, if you want to fight, hurry up. I don't have time to waste words with you here," Yang Lingchen said bluntly.
"Good brat, you are Yang Lingchen?" Xue Tianming said with a gloomy face.
"That's right, it is your father," Yang Lingchen said with a cold laugh.
"You are courting death." Xue Tianming was so angry that his face became distorted. He was, after all, a famous Sect Leader in the Northern Region; when had he ever suffered such insults?
"Brother Xue, calm down. Once we catch this Little Bastard, there will be plenty of ways to torture him properly," Mo Junhao, Sect Master of the Lingxuan Sect, said with a gloomy face.
"Brother Mo is right," Xue Tianming then shouted loudly: "Everyone follow me and charge! Wipe out Heavenly Origin Palace!"
As soon as Xue Tianming finished speaking, the coalition of seven Sects charged toward Heavenly Origin Palace with great momentum.
"Kill them all!" Yang Lingchen also shouted loudly, taking the lead and charging forward with Dongfang Yunbing.
The upper echelons and Disciples of Heavenly Origin Palace behind them, each holding a battle sword, bravely charged toward the opponent.
The moment the two sides clashed, the Heavenly Origin Palace Disciples instantly threw countless explosive poison pills at the opposite side.
Boom, boom, boom... For a time, countless Disciples of the coalition of seven Sects were seriously injured on the spot, and countless others were poisoned by the explosive poison pills.
"There is poison, everyone hold your breath!" Xue Tianming shouted loudly.
At this moment, Yang Lingchen had already killed his way into the coalition of seven Sects.
The Sect Leaders and Sect Masters of the seven major Sects also joined forces to attack Yang Lingchen and Dongfang Yunbing at this time.
However, the combined efforts of several Sect Masters could not stop Yang Lingchen at all. Within a few breaths of time, several were killed by Yang Lingchen.
Just at this moment, an extremely terrifying Sword Qi came from the air. Yang Lingchen quickly dodged to the side, avoiding this Sword Qi.
Immediately after, an old figure appeared in front of Yang Lingchen.
At the same time, dozens of men in black appeared on the battlefield.
"Old thing, I thought you were a shrinking turtle! I didn't expect you to show your face," Yang Lingchen said with a smile.
"Sharp-tongued brat, provoking me will do you no good," Elder Ying said with extremely cold eyes.
"Haha..., Old Scoundrel, I was just waiting for you to appear, otherwise how would I activate the grand array?"
Yang Lingchen laughed out loud, and with a wave of his hand, he activated the grand array.
In an instant, the scene was shrouded by a mysterious force. The coalition of seven Sects seemed to be suppressed by a thousand-pound boulder.
Those with lower cultivation levels moved significantly slower under this mysterious force, while the movements of the Heavenly Origin Palace Disciples were completely unaffected.
Suddenly, countless members of the coalition of seven Sects died at the hands of the Heavenly Origin Palace Disciples.
"Brat, you are seeking death."
Elder Ying shouted angrily and instantly pounced toward Yang Lingchen, while the dozens of men in black behind him also charged toward Dongfang Yunbing.
The strength of these men in black was around the first level of the Gui Xuan Realm, while Elder Ying's strength had actually reached the sixth level of the Gui Xuan Realm.
For a time, Yang Lingchen was also suppressed and forced to retreat repeatedly.
With Yang Lingchen's current strength, facing a powerhouse at the sixth level of the Gui Xuan Realm was still quite strenuous.
However, he did not panic and continued to use hit-and-run tactics to entangle the opponent.
As a top Alchemist, it was impossible not to have some special means.
At this time, Yang Lingchen took the opportunity to swallow an explosion profound pill.
Instantly, the Aura on his body surged sharply, reaching the Peak of the seventh level of the Entering Profound Realm in an instant.
"Old undead thing, watch how I finish you off."
"Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish..."
Yang Lingchen urged the immortal demon sword and slashed out dozens of swords in an instant.
Yang Lingchen, with his surging Aura, immediately forced Elder Ying to retreat repeatedly.
Before long, he was cut by Yang Lingchen's Sword Qi and sustained several wounds.
In the blink of an eye, another dozen moves passed, and Elder Ying was finally pierced through the chest by Yang Lingchen's sword. The whole person fell to the ground, losing his Combat Power.
"What kind of Medicinal Pill did you take just now?" Elder Ying asked with difficulty.
"Wait until I finish dealing with the others, then I will tell you," Yang Lingchen said with a cold laugh, and then flew toward Dongfang Yunbing's side.
At this time, Dongfang Yunbing was already struggling to hold on. She was besieged by dozens of men in black. Although her strength was much higher than that of the men in black, she couldn't handle the sheer number of opponents! Not to mention that the Sect Masters of several major Sects were also attacking her.
Just as Dongfang Yunbing was retreating repeatedly, Yang Lingchen finally arrived, and her pressure was finally relieved.
Under Yang Lingchen's crazy slaughter, the dozens of men in black were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered. He killed them one by one with his sword, and in a short while, they were all killed cleanly.
The people on the Heavenly Origin Palace side became braver as they fought, and the coalition of seven Sects instantly collapsed, suffering extremely heavy casualties.
Not long after, Xue Tianming and Mo Junhao were captured by Yang Lingchen.
It was not that Yang Lingchen did not want to kill them, but he wanted to control them; after all, attacking territory also requires people to manage it.
