Chapter 423: Chapter 237 Stepping into the Clan, Slaying the Divine Refinement Celestial!_2
 

“Divine Refinement Celestials, making a breakthrough even in a minor realm is extremely difficult, with many Divine Refinement Celestials only able to stop at the early stage.

“Many high-ranked Martial Artists are stopped in front of the gate to Divine Refinement, unable to take that step and unable to condense a Divine Soul.

“Many prodigies stop at high-ranked Martial Artist, and some even stop at the early or middle stages of Divine Refinement…

“Those who can break through to the later stages of Divine Refinement are truly existences at the pinnacle of the Spiritual Realm.”

Shen Haizhou sighed with emotion.

He knew his talents were not lacking, but he didn’t dare say that he would certainly become a Divine Refinement Celestial in the future.

Xu Yan finally gained a more detailed understanding of these Spirit Sects and noble families, and Shen Haizhou, as a scion of a noble family, knew far more than Yu Xiaolong, that wild snake.

“Yuzhou seems not strong?”

Xu Yan said, surprised.

The Jade Divine Sect, though among the first-rate Spirit Sects of the Spiritual Realm, has the lowest threshold.

“Yuzhou is relatively remote, and it’s said that a catastrophe in the past led to its decline,”

Shen Haizhou explained.

“Where is the Dai Family’s stronghold? Tell me about it. While Dai Sheng hasn’t returned yet, I’ll go and take it down,”

Xu Yan said sternly.

Shen Haizhou was numb, having said so much, Xu Yan still intended to strike at the Dai Family?

Not apprehensive of the Dai Family’s strength at all?

“I don’t know much about the Dai Family. The ancestral home is within Zheng Country, here… Among this generation of juniors, apart from Dai Yingying and Dai Jun, there are several others.

“Their talents are all average…”

Shen Haizhou drew a map on the ground, detailing the location of the Dai Family, even marking the general position of the Dai Family’s treasury.

He also described several members of this generation of the Dai family, including their appearances and general characteristics.

Xu Yan looked at Shen Haizhou skeptically. On one hand, he claimed he was not familiar with the Dai Family, yet he provided such a detailed layout of their ancestral land, knowing quite a bit about this generation’s juniors.

Shen Haizhou let out a sheepish laugh. He had taken advantage of Dai Jun before, and eventually, Dai Jun had died by his hand, so he had specifically learned about the Dai Family.

“That’s all I know.”

Xu Yan nodded, looked at Shen Haizhou, and said, “Brother Shen, please help me keep Dai Sheng busy outside for a while longer, so he won’t return to the Dai Family so soon.”

“Alright!”

Shen Haizhou nodded.

“Brother Xu, are you really confident?”

The Dai Family had Divine Refinement Celestials in their ranks.

“No big problem.”

Xu Yan nodded.

“Then I wish Brother Xu success!”

Shen Haizhou cupped his hands.

“Thank you!”

Xu Yan returned the gesture and quickly disappeared.

“The winds of change are going to stir in Yuzhou now, huh? If the Dai Family is taken down, how will the Jade Divine Sect and Su Family react?”

Shen Haizhou muttered to himself.

The Jade Divine Sect and Su Family would undoubtedly do everything possible to eliminate the threat posed by Xu Yan.

It wasn’t hard to keep Dai Sheng busy; Shen Haizhou merely needed to spread false whereabouts about Wen Yong and those of Xu Yan to Dai Sheng.

Meanwhile, Dai Sheng, driven almost mad, was searching everywhere for Xu Yan and Wen Yong.

A Divine Refinement Celestial from the mighty Dai Family, unable to handle two Loose Cultivators – where would he put his face?

Where was the dignity of the Dai Family?

…

Dai County was the territory ruled by the Dai Family.

The ancestral lands of the Dai Family were also here.

For the people of the Dai Family, recent times had been unfavorable; their highly regarded Dai Yingying had been killed, and Dai Jun had also died.

Even the current family head, Dai Yiping, had died on Mount Mang, killed by a Loose Cultivator.

It was considered an immense disgrace!

Dai Yang, a cousin of Dai Yingying, wasn’t particularly talented and, at over thirty years of age, had yet to break through the Minor Celestial realm.

On this day, Dai Yang returned from outside, head slightly bowed, in a mood that was oppressively dismal.

The guards and elders of the Dai Family did not suspect anything; given the recent misfortunes, it was understandable that the younger generation seemed to have lost their edge and become despondent.

Wandering aimlessly, Dai Yang finally reached the ancestral temple of the Dai Family.

“Dai Yang, what are you doing here? Don’t be listless. The treasury is a critical area; you are not allowed in without permission!”

The guarding elder frowned and admonished.

“Understood.”

Dai Yang responded gloomily and turned to leave.

“This is close to the treasury and also a good spot for an ambush. Let’s make our move here.”

Disguised as Dai Yang, Xu Yan buried himself slowly behind a large tree outside the ancestral temple, masking all traces of his presence.

“I have only one chance with a sword strike, I must severely injure the opponent with one sword to have a chance to kill him!”

Xu Yan’s eyes carried a solemn weight.

Sword Intent quietly gathered, his Sudden Wind Sword Intent continually refined to slay a Divine Refinement Celestial, relying on the Sudden Wind Sword Intent to tear through the opponent’s Divine Soul.

“Almost there.”

Xu Yan silently thought.

Divine Intent permeated the air, and suddenly, a flood dragon with a green back and white belly erupted with a low roar, appearing above the Dai Family’s ancestral grounds.

Plop!

The Martial Artists from the Dai Family turned pale with shock, as if a mountain was bearing down on them, those below the level of Lesser Celestials instantly sprawled on the ground.

Only the Elder of the Greater Celestials had the strength to withstand that tremendous might, but even they were immensely shocked.

Had the Green Sky Flood Dragon corpse come to attack the Dai Family?

Boom!

At that moment, from the direction of the ancestral shrine, a wave of Divine Soul might came forth.

An old man suddenly appeared, charging at the Green Sky Flood Dragon.

“Green Sky Flood Dragon, since you’ve come, don’t think about leaving. Let’s see how you turned into a corpse dragon.”

The Green Sky Flood Dragon unleashed an overpowering might, attacking the old man, but under the old man’s single palm strike, it was instantly knocked out of the air and smashed a large tree.

Roar!

The Green Sky Flood Dragon hit the ground, raising its head and roaring as it struggled to rise.

The old man descended from the sky, his heart somewhat excited. The missing Green Sky Flood Dragon corpse had stumbled into the Dai Family’s ground; was this compensation for the family’s loss?

“Evil beast, stop struggling!”

The old man, ecstatic, approached the Green Sky Flood Dragon, and with a mighty blow, sought to completely suppress and capture it.

Buzz!

Suddenly, a strong crisis emerged, and intense sword light flashed behind him!

“Not good!”

The old man’s face turned to horror, his Divine Soul’s might was about to burst out while he simultaneously moved to dodge the attack.

However, he had been completely unguarded earlier, and with Xu Yan’s amassed power, the Sudden Wind Sword Intent struck like a tempest, instantly slashing into his Divine Soul.

In an instant, the old man felt as if his Divine Soul was battered by a hurricane, flickering like a candle in the wind, and tiny cracks appeared across his Divine Soul, ready to collapse at any moment!

“Ah!”

The old man let out a piercing scream!

The intense pain in the Divine Soul was unbearable, and in an instant, all his responses halted.

Even though, deep down, he desperately told himself he must dodge immediately, he must flee at once, the intense pain in the Divine Soul prevented him from responding in time.

Life and death hung in the balance!

Xu Yan’s power-infused sword, though not enough to tear apart the old man’s Divine Soul, was sufficient to damage it severely since he was caught off guard.

And the pain in the Divine Soul would inevitably cause his form to freeze, halting any possible countermeasures for a moment.

That moment was his opportunity!

Boom!

Imagery of mountains and rivers collapsed in an instant, transforming into a thunderous sword.

As if, from the collapsing mountains and rivers, a figure wielding a thunderous sword plummeted down.

Plop!

The old man’s body was split in two!

Without a physical body, his Divine Soul started to flicker, as if losing its support.

Xu Yan’s body surged with light, his Sword Intent relentless, the Sudden Wind Sword Intent, Mountain and River Sword Intent, and the true meaning of Dragon Might from the Subduing Dragon Palm, all burst forth!

Plop!

The Divine Soul was shredded, beginning to disperse and vanish.

“Who are you?!”

The old man’s Divine Soul emitted cries of unwillingness and rage.

“The one who kills you!”

Xu Yan relentlessly attacked, giving his opponent no chance.

Crushing bones, scattering ashes, annihilating soul!

Finally, the old man died!

Vanished into ash!

Xu Yan then let out a sigh of relief, reached out a hand, and captured the fallen old man’s Storage Bag, using the Subduing Dragon Palm to shrink the corpse of the Green Sky Flood Dragon, and also placed it into the Storage Bag.

At this moment, he turned toward the already stunned, horror-stricken Dai Family elders.

He slashed with his sword.

“Today, I step into the Divine Family, killing Divine Refinement Celestials!”

Xu Yan said coldly.

Boom!

Xu Yan struck with his sword, killing several Greater Celestials and then, without chasing after the rest who were frantically fleeing, he headed for the Dai Family’s treasure vault.

The family treasure vault held countless treasures; pressed for time, he didn’t waste it chasing those Dai Family elders.

Xu Yan broke into the Dai Family treasure vault, too urgent to look closely, grabbing any Storage Bags he saw, and even opened several at once, madly stuffing the treasures inside.

He didn’t even check what all the items were, madly swept everything up, then promptly fled.

It was time to return to the Inner Domain!

Dai Sheng must be going insane, and Yuzhou would likely be shaken by this event.
