Chapter 206
Everyone was silent, utterly shocked that the Golden Crow Clan had hidden so deeply and made such a decisive move against Jiang Chen at the most critical moment. They sacrificed an elderly Great Saint in exchange for the life of the Holy Son of Primordial Holy Land.
This move carried significant risks—if the Great Saint had been unable to enter the tribulation, or if he had been stopped by the Third Ancestor, they would have lost an elderly Great Saint completely.
Moreover, this action would irreparably sever relations with the Primordial Holy Land.
As the tribulation grew increasingly terrifying, Dongfang Mingyue’s face turned icy cold. She spoke in a chilling tone, “Golden Crow Clan, do you wish to bring about your own destruction?”
Her fury was almost tangible, like a volcano on the verge of eruption, and the killing intent she emitted was unimaginably intense.
At this moment, Dongfang Mingyue appeared like an unparalleled god of death, striking fear into everyone present.
To Dongfang Mingyue, Jiang Chen was her reverse scale—the one thing no one could touch. If anyone dared to harm him, it would mean a fight to the death.
“The Primordial Holy Master should focus on the impending death of the Holy Son rather than us!”
“Hahaha, no matter how monstrous your Holy Son is, he will ultimately become nothing more than a withered flower of yesterday!”
“No matter how extraordinary a genius may be, if they die young, they are no different from any ordinary ant!”
“And the Primordial Holy Land should feel honored. To kill the Holy Son, we’ve even sacrificed a Great Saint! Exchanging a Great Saint for a mere Saint, we are the ones at a loss!”
Recalling past humiliations, the Golden Crow Clan’s chief vented all his pent-up resentment, his voice filled with satisfaction and vindication.
“Isn’t it said that your Holy Son of Primordial Holy Land is a monstrous talent, the greatest prodigy in history?”
“So what? Isn’t he still going to die today? Faced with a Great Saint Realm tribulation, I’d like to see how your Holy Son of Primordial Holy Land can avoid it! How can he possibly survive?”
“Mingyue, calm down!” Just as the Primordial Holy Master was about to take action, the Third Ancestor suddenly spoke up: “The Holy Son’s tribulation is the most important thing right now; we cannot afford to be distracted by these matters!”
“If we want to destroy the Golden Crow Clan, we must wait until the tribulation is over! If we leave now, how can we continue to protect Jiang Chen?”
Although the actions of the Golden Crow Clan infuriated the Third Ancestor, he knew that now was not the time to be angry.
Jiang Chen was still undergoing his tribulation. If they engaged in a large-scale battle with the Golden Crow Clan now, it would only play into their hands.
Without their protection, the Golden Crow Clan could interfere with the tribulation even more recklessly. So now was definitely not the time to strike back and they could only endure for now.
“Mingyue, just bear with it for a while longer! Just a little while longer! I believe Jiang Chen can overcome this tribulation!” Mu Jianxue suddenly spoke up, her cold face filled with boundless killing intent.
The divine sword in her hand hummed incessantly, the vast sword intent almost impossible to suppress.
“I understand!” Dongfang Mingyue took a deep breath, forcibly calming herself down as she knew now was not the time for anger.
“The Holy Son of Primordial Holy Land is going to fall!” The Pure Yang Holy Master sighed and said to the Sun God King beside him, “Have the sect prepare! There will be a great battle soon!”
They knew the Primordial Holy Land too well—after such treatment… There was no way they would just endure it. Their current inactivity was only the calm before the storm.
The Golden Crow Clan would have to pay the price for their actions today. As soon as Jiang Chen’s tribulation ends, whether he lived or died, the Golden Crow Clan was destined to become the target of the Primordial Holy Land.
Their death was certain!
“I understand!” The Sun God King nodded.
The Golden Crow Clan and the Primordial Holy Land had already completely torn off the mask of civility. There was no way they could pretend that nothing had happened.
The Golden Crow Clan and the Primordial Holy Land have completely torn off any pretense. There’s no way they can act as if nothing happened and a great battle is inevitable.
And this battle will be different from the one eight thousand years ago. This time, the Golden Crow Clan will be completely obliterated and no one can stop it.
The hope of tens of thousands of years being shatterered is enough to drive the lunatics of the Primordial Holy Land into utter madness.
“Are we going to exterminate the ancient imperial clans? It’s been many years since we last took action against the ancient imperial clans, and I’m actually looking forward to it!” The Emperor of the Qin Dynasty said, his fighting spirit surging with extreme excitement.”
Meanwhile on a high peak in the Nine Heavens Realm, Du Guyun gazed at the vast starry sky and said with a hint of satisfaction, “Master, now that a Great Saint has interfered, does this mean that the Holy Son of Primordial Holy Land is about to meet his end?”
The commotion caused by Jiang Chen’s tribulation was immense, attracting the attention of all major forces in the Nine Heavens Realm. Anyone with a bit of power was closely monitoring the situation, including Du Guyun.
After years of secluded cultivation, Du Guyun had now reached the Great Mastee Realm, granting him awareness of events beyond the stars.
“It’s highly likely that he has no hope left!”
“The tribulation has been elevated to the Great Saint Realm, and the Holy Son of Primordial Holy Land, who is only in the Saint Realm, stands no chance! He will almost certainly be reduced to ashes!”
“Who would have thought the Holy Son of Primordial Holy Land would meet his end in such a manner? Life is truly unpredictable!” An elderly voice sighed slightly, not out of pity or regret, but out of a sense of melancholy.
It seemed a waste for such a prodigy to fall not in a grand battle but through treachery during his tribulation. He should have ended his life with a magnificent flourish, not in the way it seemed he would now.
However, Du Guyun did not share these sentiments. For him, the sooner the Holy Son of Primordial Holy Land died, the better.
“This is all his own doing. If he hadn’t been so arrogant, challenging eight Emperor marks at once, he wouldn’t have ended up like this!”
“But the Holy Son’s situation does serve as a reminder to me: one mustn’t be too arrogant or overconfident, or else disaster will surely follow!” Du Guyun sneered.
“You’ve understood the key point! Although you might not have been able to defeat the Holy Son of Primordial Holy Land in the future, seeing him die is a good consolation!”
“At the very least, it removes an obstacle, leaving you without a rival in the future!” The elder spoke calmly, “But remember this: the greatest danger during a tribulation isn’t the tribulation itself, but the Life Calamity!”
“Jiang Chen’s situation is precisely a Life Calamity, just like the Pure Yang Root not long ago! If no one interferes, they can definitely survive the tribulation, but once the Life Calamity is triggered, no matter how talented they are, it’s hard to withstand!”
Tribulations are difficult to overcome. Why is that? One reason is the tribulation itself—unless you are exceptionally strong, it’s nearly impossible to cross it.
Moreover, the appearance of a tribulation naturally draws the attention of countless beings, which in turn gives rise to the Life Calamity.
If someone interferes, it can easily intensify the difficulty of the tribulation, adding external enemies to face alongside the tribulation itself. Naturally, this makes it extremely difficult to survive.
Boom!.
At that moment, the attacks from the eight Emperor marks descended, annihilating everything in their path, as if they intended to destroy Jiang Chen completely along with the boundless void!
However, just as Jiang Chen was about to be engulfed by the divine powers, suddenly, a silver light burst forth. A mirror appeared in the sky, releasing an infinite cascade of silver light, like a splendid, colorful galaxy.
Under this light, an infinite aura began to revive which was the aura of an Emperor. An Emperor Weapon had awakened.
As the divine powers fell, the light released by the All Heaven Mirror merely trembled slightly before returning to calm.
Witnessing this scene Jinyuan, who had been ecstatic just moments before, was now completely dumbfounded. The Golden Crow Clan outside, as well as the various forces watching, also fell into silence as they hadn’t anticipated this move.
The protection of an Emperor Weapon. They had all forgotten that the Primordial Holy Land possessed many Emperor Weapons. And just now, the All Heaven Mirror had not yet appeared.
“Everyone forgot that this Emperor Weapon was obtained by Jiang Chen himself, meaning it is his own Emperor Weapon!”
“With the protection of an Emperor Weapon, the tribulation cannot harm him at all!” Someone muttered softly.
At the same time, Jiang Chen’s voice rang out, “Master, if not now, then when will you cross your tribulation? I have already marked the small world of the Golden Crow Clan. If we draw in the heavenly tribulation now, the combined power of our tribulations will be enough to annihilate their entire clan!”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone felt a chill run down their spines.
