The ancestor of the Huoyang clan cultivated into a true spirit and successfully ascended to the fairyland. However, not long after, the ancestor's soul lamp went out.
Since then, no member of the Huoyang Clan has successfully survived the Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulations. Even when a member of the clan finally cultivated to the late Mahayana stage, he still could not survive the Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulations, and those who cultivated to the level of a true spirit were no exception.
The power of the Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulations is too strong, even the true spirit can hardly resist it.
Yan Shuo took out a magic disk that was glowing red, and entered a magic formula. A respectful male voice sounded, "Ancestor Yan Shuo, two Mahayana monks are here to visit us. They said they have something important to discuss with us."
"Mahayana monk? What's your name?"
Yan Shuo asked with a frown.
"A man and a woman. The man's name is Lin Xuan and the woman's name is Mu Xiao."
The tribesmen reported.
"Lin Xuan, Mu Xiao, I don't know them. They are guests. I'll go out and meet them!"
Yan Shuo put away the communication disk and flew out.
On the outskirts of the Huoyang Mountains, Lin Xuan and Mu Xiao stood high in the sky, looking a little nervous.
They used the galaxy teleportation array to come here, hoping to convince the Huoyang Clan to attack the Creation Galaxy.
Not long after, Yan Shuo flew over.
"My name is Yan Shuo. I wonder if you two Taoist friends have any advice for me?"
Yan Shuo asked, looking Lin Xuan and Mu Xiao up and down.
Lin Xuan moved his lips slightly and sent a message to Yan Shuo.
"Why should I believe what you say?"
Yan Shuo said with a frown.
Lin Xuan pinched his fingers and a surge of demonic energy gushed out of his body, rising into the sky.
"Friend Lin, Madam Mu, if you don't mind, please go in and discuss in detail."
Yan Shuo made a gesture of invitation.
Lin Xuan and Mu Xiao agreed and followed Yan Shuo into the Huoyang Mountains.
······
Creation Galaxy, Chiyang Star Region.
Xuanyang Star, Jiulong Island.
A team of Han family monks were on patrol, led by a tall young man in a blue shirt.
Two golden lights flew from a distance at a very fast speed.
"Someone is coming."
The young man in blue shirt stopped.
Not long after, the two golden lights stopped, revealing a burly man in a golden shirt and a girl in a golden skirt. They were the Sky-Swallowing Rat and the Hundred-Headed Insect.
"Two seniors, the front is our Han family's ancestral land. I wonder if you two seniors have any advice for us?"
The young man in blue asked politely.
"Let your clan leader come out. We have something to say to him."
The man in the golden shirt ordered.
Han Changming is able to refine top-grade elixirs, so they plan to use courtesy first and then force. If the Han family obediently hands over the Taoist temple of the Immortal Lord of Creation, they can let the Han family go. If the Han family is ignorant, they will not be polite either.
They did not force their way in because they were afraid of the Han family's protective formation. Who knows what good things the Han family got from the Taoist temple of the Immortal Lord of Creation.
The young man in blue shirt did not dare to neglect and said quickly: "Senior, please wait a moment. I will inform the clan leader."
He took out a formation plate that was flashing blue light, entered a spell, and made some gestures.
In less than half a minute, Han Zhangxiang, Han Debiao, Liang Youshan and Han Changming flew out.
"What are your names, fellow Taoists? What advice do you have for me?"
Han Zhangxiang asked politely.
"It doesn't matter who we are. You have obtained the Taoist temple of the Immortal Master of Creation, right? Hand over the Taoist temple and we will leave. Otherwise, you will be in trouble."
The man in the golden shirt said coldly.
"What a big tone! I want to see how you can make us suffer."
Han Debiao's face turned cold, he took out the Burning Heaven Stick and injected magic power into it.
With a "puff" sound, flames gushed out of the Burning Heaven Stick and the temperature rose rapidly. He swung the Burning Heaven Stick and smashed it at the man in golden shirt.
"Xuantian's treasure! It seems that you have indeed obtained the Taoist temple of the Immortal Master of Creation."
The man in the golden shirt was not surprised but happy.
His body shone with golden light and he transformed into a giant golden rat, slapping the Burning Heaven Stick with his right claw.
The claws of the golden giant rat collided with the Burning Heaven Stick, and there was a dull sound of metal clashing.
“True spirit!”
Han Debiao was a little surprised.
Liang Youshan flipped his right hand, a white light flashed, and a flying sword with flashing white light appeared in his hand. With a flick of his wrist, a large sharp white sword light swept out, the void and the sea surface froze, and the temperature dropped rapidly.
The golden giant rat was not afraid at all. It opened its bloody mouth and sprayed out a stream of yellow light, which covered the white sword light and swallowed it into its stomach.
“Heaven-Swallowing Divine Light! Heaven-Swallowing Rat!”
Han Changming's face darkened.
"Use whatever magical powers you have. Don't say we didn't give you a chance."
The giant golden rat spoke.
"You guys should leave! You have nothing to do here."
Han Zhangxiang gave the order, and the young man in blue shirt and others withdrew.
Han Debiao put away the Burning Heaven Stick, and a black light shone from his body. A giant humanoid shadow appeared above his head. It was the Dharmakaya, which merged into one with him. He punched out, and the void was torn apart. A huge black fist flew out and went straight towards the golden giant rat.
The giant black fist left a white mark in the void, and the sea surface was split into two wherever it passed.
The golden giant rat was not afraid at all. It released the Sky-Devouring Divine Light again and swallowed the giant black fist.
"Spiritual attack!"
The golden giant rat's body trembled and it exclaimed.
With a flash of green light, Han Debiao appeared behind the Sky-Swallowing Rat without any warning, with the green phoenix cloak he was wearing flickering continuously.
A ball of black light emerged from his fists and smashed into the giant golden rat.
With dull "bang" sounds, Han Debiao felt as if his fists had hit a solid wall.
The golden giant rat screamed and its body began to tremble. It could withstand the treasure of Xuantian, but it could not resist the attack of the soul.
"He has mastered the soul attack, come and help me."
The golden giant rat spoke in a hurried tone.
Just as the girl in the golden skirt was about to make a move, a sharp red knife light swept over. Wherever it passed, the sea water was split in two, ignited a raging fire, and filled the air with white mist.
The right hand of the girl in the golden skirt emitted golden light, and she slapped out with one palm. A giant golden palm flew out and defeated the red knife light.
An extremely thick golden light shot out, tearing the void apart wherever it passed.
The girl in the golden skirt didn't dare to take it head-on and was about to avoid it when the sound of "ding ding ding" bells rang out. She felt a sharp pain in her soul sea, as if someone had thrown a huge stone into her soul sea.
When she came to her senses, the golden light hit the girl in the golden skirt, and a muffled sound was heard.
"You are also a true spirit!"
Han Changming was a little surprised. No wonder they dared to come to his door. However, if they thought they could control the Han family, they were wrong.
Liang Youshan shook her sleeves and the Seven-Star Soul-Destroying Sword flew out. She pinched her sword formula and the Seven-Star Soul-Destroying Sword trembled slightly. One turned into a hundred, a hundred turned into ten thousand, and tens of thousands of Seven-Star Soul-Destroying Swords flew straight towards the girl in the golden skirt.
The girl in the golden skirt glowed with golden light and turned into a giant insect with dozens of heads.
It spewed out a golden light that covered the attacking Seven-Star Soul-Destroying Sword. The Seven-Star Soul-Destroying Sword stopped in mid-air one after another, as if they were fixed.
The sea surface exploded, and the sea water suddenly condensed, turning into blue flying swords and heading straight towards the hundred-headed insect.
The Hundred-Headed Insect Spray waved its sharp claws and defeated the attacking blue flying sword.
Liang Youshan pinched the sword formula, and the Seven-Star Soul-Destroying Sword suddenly emitted a dazzling sword light, which shattered the golden glow and turned it into a long black rainbow, heading straight for the Hundred-Headed Insect.
The hundred-headed insect wanted to avoid it, but a loud bell rang and it was a beat slow to react.
The Seven-Star Soul-Destroying Sword struck the Hundred-Headed Insect, and there was a sound of metal clashing. It let out a painful scream like a woman, but that was not the end. The environment in front of it changed, and countless flying swords appeared. Hundreds of thousands of flying swords floated in the air, swaying gently, and the sound of swords continued.
Sword domain!
Liang Youshan took the fruit of enlightenment and cultivated his spiritual realm to a small level of success.
On the other side, Han Debiao also activated the spiritual realm to trap the Sky-Swallowing Rat.
Han Changming activated the Soul-Calming Bell to attack the Sky-Devouring Rat and the Hundred-Headed Insect. Han Debiao and Liang Youshan had mastered defensive soul attacks and were not affected at all.
Han Zhangxiang and Liang Youshan worked together to deal with the hundred-headed insect. After all, she was not a real spirit, so she was under more pressure.
As time passed, the Hundred-Headed Insect and the Sky-Swallowing Rat fell into a disadvantage.
They were not afraid of the attack of Xuantian's treasure. Even if Han Debiao and Liang Youshan activated the spirit realm to attack them, it would be difficult to kill them in a short time. However, Han Debiao and others had mastered the soul attack, and Han Changming also had the treasure of the Soul-Suppressing Bell.
"Stop, Brother Han, stop. We are blind and don't recognize the real master. Please spare our lives."
The hundred-headed insect begged for mercy.
"That's right, we were wrong, Fellow Daoist Han, please spare our lives."
The Sky-Swallowing Rat also begged for mercy.
"We can spare your lives and let us plant the ban, so that you can serve us from now on."
Han Zhangxiang said that if they could subdue the two true spirits, the strength of the Han family would be greatly enhanced.
"Working for you?"
The Bai Tou Chong were a little hesitant. They had been living freely for many years, so they were a little reluctant to guard the Han family.
"What? Have I wronged you? Since you don't want to, I will kill you and use your corpses to refine weapons."
Han Zhangxiang's tone turned cold.
The Soul-Calming Bell in Han Changming's hand lit up with dazzling golden light, and he was about to activate the Soul-Calming Bell to kill them.
"No, no, we are willing to serve your Han family, please spare our lives."
The Sky-Swallowing Rat begged for mercy.
Guarding the Han family means survival, but refusing means death.
The Hundred-Headed Insect also quickly agreed: "That's right, spare our lives, we are willing to serve the Han family."
Han Zhangxiang planted many restrictions, and only then did Han Debiao and Liang Youshan remove the spiritual domain.
"If we can ascend to the immortal world, we will take you with us."
Han Zhangxiang said.
The Hundred-Headed Insect and the Sky-Swallowing Rat transformed into human form. They looked at each other, sighed, and nodded.
"From now on, your name will be Han Tian, and your name will be Han Lu."
Han Zhangxiang named them.
Both of them had no objection and agreed.
After subduing the two true spirits, Han Debiao and others showed joy on their faces.
Han Changming shook his sleeves, and two black pills flew out and flew towards them, saying, "Your souls are damaged, take this pill to heal!"
Han Tian and Han Xie thanked him, swallowed the pills on the spot, their faces lit up with joy and their expressions became excited.
Their souls were not seriously injured, and these two top-grade elixirs made their souls even stronger.
Now it seems that working for the Han family is still a good thing. At least you can get top-quality elixirs.
"Come on! Come back with us!"
Han Zhangxiang gave the order and the group returned to Kowloon Island.
The Han family blocked the news, and the outside world did not know that the Han family had subdued two true spirits. However, the news that the Han family had obtained the Creation Immortal Venerable's Taoist temple still spread. This news was not spread by the Han family, but by an unknown cultivator.
The Han family didn't care. With five true spirits, the Xuantian treasure and the spiritual realm, the Han family was not afraid of other enemies.
At Qianyang Peak, Han Changming walked into a secret room, sat down cross-legged, and took out a golden-red pill with twelve dan patterns on its surface.
The top-grade Golden Flame Pill is made with one hundred thousand year old Golden Flame Grass as the main ingredient, and has the effect of improving magical powers.
Han Changming put the Golden Flame Pill into his mouth. The pill melted in his mouth and a burning sensation rose in his abdomen. He quickly used his internal energy to refine the medicinal power.
······
Tianyang Galaxy, Huoyang Star, the ancestral land of the Huoyang clan.
In the meeting room, Yan Shuo sat on the main seat, and dozens of clan elders sat on both sides with solemn expressions.
"Second Elder, is there something important? Why are you calling so many people to a meeting?"
A tall and thin man in purple asked.
"The great elder died under the nine-nine thunder tribulations."
Yan Shuo sighed deeply, his face showing grief.
"What! The Great Elder died under the Nine Nine Thunder Tribulations."
The Huoyang Clan cultivators present were horrified. Yan Ying was a late Mahayana cultivator, yet he died under the Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulations. It seemed that it was very difficult to survive the Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulations.
"Two demon masters contacted me and said they were willing to take us to the Creation Galaxy to plunder the immortal cultivation resources there."
Yan Shuo continued.
If he were to go alone, there would be no problem. However, if he wanted the entire clan to go, he would need the consent of most of the Mahayana cultivators, which would be a bit risky.
"What? Go to the Good Fortune Galaxy and plunder the resources for cultivation?"
The purple-shirted man said in surprise.
The monks present looked at each other with different expressions.
"Can we trust the words of those two demon masters? Don't be fooled by them. Besides, why should we plunder the immortal cultivation resources of the Good Fortune Galaxy? We don't lack ordinary immortal cultivation resources."
"We are not short of ordinary immortal cultivation resources, but also high-level tribulation materials! The Great Elder is an example. I don't want to die under the great tribulation. I agree with this."
"With our power alone, it won't be easy to invade the Creation Galaxy! How about uniting with other races or forces?"
The elders of the Huoyang tribe expressed their opinions one after another.
"I have also considered this. With the strength of our Huoyang Clan, it is indeed a bit difficult. However, if we send out too many experts, how to distribute them is also a problem. I plan to join forces with the Xueteng Clan. What do you think?"
Yan Shuo said.
The overall strength of the Blood Vine Clan is slightly weaker than that of the Fire Sun Clan. Even if they take over the Creation Galaxy, the Fire Sun Clan will still be able to occupy a dominant position and get the lion's share.
"Second Elder, how did those two demon Mahayana masters get here? Is what they said true? They are not trying to trick us!"
The purple-shirted man questioned.
"They came here by teleportation. We can first send someone to take the teleportation to the Creation Galaxy and investigate it thoroughly. It won't be too late to make a decision then."
Yan Shuo said.
This decision was agreed upon by most of the clan members, including the Mahayana cultivators. They believed that Yan Ying was a lesson learned from the past, and they did not have the confidence to survive the nine-nine thunder tribulations, so outward expansion might be a way out.
If they do not invade the Creation Galaxy, even if they cultivate to the late Mahayana stage, they will not be able to survive the nine-nine thunder tribulations and will only repeat Yan Ying's mistakes.
"Since everyone agrees, let's do this. First, send someone to investigate the situation in the Good Fortune Galaxy. If the news is true, we will unite with the Blood Vine Clan and invade the Good Fortune Galaxy."
Yan Shuo said.
"Yes, Second Elder."
Everyone agreed in unison.
