Ye Chenfeng recounted his encounter with the world's true ruler in the Illusory Realm to Old White and Old Black. The two elders advised him to focus on increasing his strength as they began to condense their physical forms. Meanwhile, the strongest ancestors of four other sects bizarrely broke through to the Extreme Peak just before the official resource scramble contest. Worried about the Wu family's disadvantage, Wu Gui and Wu Lingyu urged Ye Chenfeng to withdraw, but he remained resolute, awaiting the elders' return.

Ancient City of Dragon Soul.

The audience seats around the Broken Dragon Platform were already packed to capacity.

Today was the official resource contest of the Six Great Hidden Sects, and how could the cultivators in the Ancient City of Dragon Soul miss such an event.

The Divine Fire Sect, Sacred Land of Demon Clouds, Qian Ling Sect, and Blood Flame Valley had arrived before the Wus and the Jiangs.

Divine Fire Sect’s Tang Jinghong, Sacred Land of Demon Clouds’ Luo Haiyuan, Qian Ling Sect’s Mu Kangyi, and Blood Flame Valley’s Teng Zhongnan, all seemed to be in high spirits after reaching the Peak of the Extreme.

At this moment.

The four Great Ancestors gathered in a room on the top tier of the audience seats.

Tang Jinghong said, "Have you all just received the secret communication?"

Luo Haiyuan, Mu Kangyi, and Teng Zhongnan unconsciously nodded, with Luo Haiyuan saying, "Once this resource contest is over, it will be the end for the Wus and the Jiangs."

The four Great Ancestors had just received a message from their master behind the scenes.

Instructing them to take control of both the Wus and the Jiangs after this resource contest ends.

Perhaps the Hes behind these four sects had sensed that Old Bai and Old Hei were still alive.

Teng Zhongnan looked at Mu Kangyi and said, "Old Mu, I heard that during the last branch competition, a genius from your Qian Ling Sect’s branch exploded into a mist of blood when fighting a kid from the Wus’ branch? It seems like your Qian Ling Sect is regressing! This time’s resource contest can exclude the Wus and the Jiangs; it’s basically a fight among our four sects."

Mu Kangyi’s expression turned slightly gloomy; he had also heard about a disciple named Tian Wu from the branch exploding into a mist of blood during the branch competition.

Mu Kangyi snorted coldly, "In our Qian Ling Sect, even a dog isn’t bullied easily."

Tang Jinghong and the others chuckled at will.

At this moment.

The number of cultivators congregating at the Broken Dragon Platform was increasing.

The Wus also arrived at the Broken Dragon Platform.

Ye Chenfeng walked at the back of the Wu family team, wearing a mask and having slightly altered his aura.

Since Wu Lingxiang was at the front of the team.

Wu Lingxiang didn’t pay much attention to Ye Chenfeng.

As the Wus arrived at the Broken Dragon Platform.

The Jiangs also entered the Broken Dragon Platform.

The person leading the Jiangs was not Jiang Shengliang.

Jiang Shengliang was absent, likely observing everything secretly with Wu Chengyan.

The Jiangs were led by an old man at the Peak of the Divine Venerable Realm and nearing small perfect completion. He was an ancestor within the Jiang family, second only to Jiang Shengliang in strength, named Jiang Lixiong.

The exceptional woman of the Jiangs, Jiang Caixuan, followed behind Jiang Lixiong. Her current aura matched Wu Lingxiang’s, both at the middle stage of the Fifth Layer of the Heavenly God Realm.

After the Wus and the Jiangs entered the Broken Dragon Platform, the four Great Ancestors emerged from the room on the top tier of the audience seats and gracefully descended to the ground.

Among them, after Mu Kangyi reached the ground, he nodded to an old man in the audience seats.

Upon seeing Mu Kangyi’s gesture, the old man’s face immediately broke into a bloodthirsty smile.

This old man was named Tian Wanxiang, an ancestor from a branch of the Qian Ling Sect, and also the direct ancestor of the late Tian Wu.

During the previous branch competition.

Having witnessed his direct descendant explode into pieces and die by Ye Chenfeng’s hands, though he wanted to kill Ye Chenfeng, he had suppressed his anger for the greater cause.

Until today when Mu Kangyi told him that if he wanted revenge, he should go ahead and act against the Wu kid.

Mu Kangyi would claim Tian Wanxiang had left Qian Ling Sect, and after Tian Wanxiang killed Ye Chenfeng, he would find a way to cover Tian Wanxiang’s retreat, ensuring no blame was cast on Qian Ling Sect.

After all, the four sects planned to act against the Wus and the Jiangs once the resource contest was over, yet although Tian Wu was just a genius from a branch, Mu Kangyi was still a bit annoyed.

Tian Wanxiang’s strength was at the Early Divine Venerate Realm.

Ye Chenfeng was easily recognizable, as he was the only one wearing a mask.

After getting Mu Kangyi’s emphatic nod.

Tian Wanxiang suddenly charged at Ye Chenfeng recklessly, holding a fiery red jade pendant in his hand.

Many present did not expect such a situation to occur suddenly.

Even Wu Gui and Wu Lingyu, standing beside Ye Chenfeng, were a bit at a loss.

Tian Wanxiang’s speed was rapid.

Coupled with his suddenness, the Wus couldn’t react in time, so he quickly closed in on Ye Chenfeng.

Wu Gui and Wu Lingyu beside Ye Chenfeng were directly repelled.

Once he was completely close to Ye Chenfeng.

Tian Wanxiang’s face twisted viciously, and he swiftly injected spiritual energy into the fiery red jade pendant in his hand.

A trace of the Fire Phoenix’s aura emanated from the pendant.

With a "boom!"

Eight massive Fire Phoenix phantoms surged forth from the pendant, forming a fiery red barrier that enveloped both Ye Chenfeng and Tian Wanxiang within.

This jade pendant was known as Phoenix Jade.

A genuine defensive type of Immortal Artifact.

For Tian Wanxiang, at the Early Divine Venerate Realm, to activate the Phoenix Jade, even a strong expert nearing small perfect completion at the Peak of the Divine Venerate Realm wouldn’t be able to break this barrier for a while.

As Ye Chenfeng and Tian Wanxiang were enveloped by the Immortal Artifact’s Phoenix Jade barrier.

For a moment.

All eyes converged on the barrier.

Mu Kangyi promptly said, "He is an ancestor from a branch of our Qian Ling Sect, but he left our Qian Ling Sect a few days ago and even stole our sect’s Immortal Artifact, the Phoenix Jade."

Mu Kangyi then righteously severed ties with Tian Wanxiang.

In reality, with their current strength, the four Great Ancestors could take down the Wus and the Jiangs directly.

But after wrestling with the Wus and the Jiangs for so long, they also wanted to witness the Wus’ and the Jiangs’ true despair, so in their view, the resource contest still needed to proceed, to bring about the Wus’ and the Jiangs’ absolute despair from all angles.

Within the fiery red barrier, Ye Chenfeng, wearing a mask.

Upon learning that the opponent was an ancestor from a branch of the Qian Ling Sect, he was almost certain that this old man was Tian Wu’s direct elder.

Trapped within this fiery red barrier.

Originally, Ye Chenfeng intended to play around a bit in the resource contest, but now facing Tian Wanxiang at the Early Divine Venerate Realm directly, it seemed there would be no play?

To resolve Tian Wanxiang, he would have to reveal his true strength.

Tian Wanxiang’s old face was filled with endless killing intent, determined to kill Ye Chenfeng.

The aura of the Early Divine Venerate Realm erupted from Tian Wanxiang.
