　　In that bygone era.
　　On the Heavenly Radiance Continent, the establishment of the Heavenly Radiance Empire owed its greatest merit to Huang Chongtian.
　　Huang Chongtian alone suppressed his era, unmatched by any.
　　As for the second greatest contributor, it was undoubtedly Pei Yuanze.
　　In that era, Pei Yuanze was also a top-tier powerhouse, and to this day, there is no consensus on who was stronger between him and Huang Chongtian.
　　And of the Pei Family’s ancient heritage, the Myriad Phenomena Heavenly Wheel Art, only Pei Yuanze has ever cultivated beyond the fifth volume！
　　Now, the marks imprinted on this tabletop are the most distinctive wheel marks of the Myriad Phenomena Heavenly Wheel Art.
　　Eight rings in total！
　　However, the imprints of the sixth, seventh, and eighth circles after the fifth are relatively faint.
　　Shu Yucheng exclaimed in astonishment, “Eight celestial rings—does this mean the Myriad Phenomena Celestial Wheel Art has been cultivated to the eighth volume？”
　　”Not necessarily. The circles after the fifth are very faint. It might… not have reached the eighth volume, but it”s definitely beyond five！” Shi Tongzhu shook his head.
　　”Beyond five circles—has he stepped into the Innate Saint Realm？” Cao Mengman said with shock and doubt, “If it’s not Pei Yongchang, then… who could it be？”
　　Shi Tongzhu gazed in the direction Pei Yongchang had left and murmured, “In the Pei family’s history, only one person has ever cultivated this art beyond the fifth volume. Every advancement in this art is accompanied by celestial phenomena. If someone else had achieved it, they couldn’t have hidden it from us. So that means…”
　　”Pei Yuanze？”
　　”He”s　still　alive？”
　　Hearing this, Cao Mengman and Shu Yucheng both paled, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.
　　At this moment, the two could no longer contain their auras. A powerful presence erupted, and the hundreds or even thousands of people gathered at the ancient city’s gates trembled as if divine wrath had descended. They knelt and prostrated on the ground, faces ashen, hearts gripped by terror, not daring to move a muscle.
　　Seeing his old friends in such a state, Shi Tongzhu couldn’t help but say, “You’re losing your composure, losing your composure. Reel it in a bit…”
　　The two restrained their auras, but the surrounding crowd still didn’t dare to move an inch.
　　Shi Tongzhu then said, “Apart from Pei Yuanze, I really can’t think of anyone else who could achieve this.”
　　”Pei Yuanze of the Pei family, the most outstanding clan leader since the founding of the Pei family. Could he still be alive？”
　　Pei Yuanze！
　　That was a figure from the same era as Huang Chongtian, the founding emperor of the Tianhuang Empire—a man from eight thousand years ago.
　　Now, with the passage of time, could that person truly still be alive？
　　Shi Tongzhu couldn’t help but say, “Sigh, inform Shi Yuyan, Shu Fengtian, and the others to come back. There’s no need to go to the Tianyuan Continent anymore.”
　　”This…”
　　”If we don’t go, Bu Baiyi will surely be dissatisfied with us！”
　　”Yes, how will we seek the help of the Huoyun Valley in the future？”
　　Shi Tongzhu looked at his two old friends and said again, “Do you dare to gamble？”
　　Hearing this, the two of them were momentarily speechless.
　　”Do you dare to bet whether this was really done by Pei Yuanze？ If Pei Yuanze is still alive, then forbidding us from interfering in the Tianyuan Continent’s affairs was likely his decision. I think even Pei Yongchang is somewhat puzzled.”
　　”If Pei Yuanze is still alive and aiding the imperial Huang family, then our three great families resisting the imperial Huang family would be a joke！”
　　At these words, Cao Menghai and Shu Yucheng fell silent.
　　”However, I’m also very curious. The Pei family had no interest in the internal conflicts of our Tianhuang Continent, so why did they suddenly take an interest in the Tianyuan Continent? By forbidding us to intervene, they’re clearly siding with the Sheng Tian Sect. But the Sheng Tian Sect is a newly established force, and its three leaders—Yin Shenghao, Su Chenyang, and Si Luoyi—are figures from just over two thousand years ago. Logically speaking, they shouldn’t have any connection to Old Master Pei Yuanze of the Pei family. So why is this happening?”
　　The three clan leaders knew nothing about this.
　　……
　　Tianyuan Continent.
　　Central Region.
　　Lingjian Pavilion.
　　At this moment, the area inside and outside Lingjian Pavilion had completely become a blood-soaked battlefield.
　　Across the hundreds of miles of mountain forests in the Tiandi Mountain Range, the nauseating stench of blood permeated everywhere.
　　Yet even so, thousands upon thousands of martial artists continued to fight and clash.
　　However, this bloody battle momentarily froze as several powerful auras descended over the ruins of Lingjian Pavilion.
　　Xu Ziyin’s mentality was already on the verge of collapsing.
　　When the Sheng Tian Sect was first established and appeared, he had wanted to crush it immediately. But Bu Baiyi, who was away at the time, sent a letter instructing him not to destroy the sect and to wait until his return.
　　This wait lasted less than a year.
　　Yet… the Sheng Tian Sect had already risen and even gathered allies.
　　By today, when the Sacred Heaven Sect came killing to their doorstep, his younger brother was slain, his son died, and Xu Ziyin’s mentality completely collapsed.
　　More importantly, the allies mentioned by Bu Baiyi still hadn’t shown up by now.
　　As the two argued, the allies—arrived！
　　Waves of powerful auras descended. Looking up, fiery-winged spirit beast birds flickering with flames appeared mid-air.
　　The birds’ wings spanned dozens of zhang, their red-and-blue feathers burning with spiritual flames, radiating scorching heat.
　　Eighth-tier spirit beast—Flame Demon Blood Roc！
　　The Flame Demon Blood Roc, a true eighth-tier spirit beast with Star-Shattering Realm strength, was inherently savage and extremely difficult to tame.
　　Yet now, dozens of them hovered mid-air above the Spirit Sword Pavilion, each carrying martial figures on their backs.
　　Bu Baiyi looked up, a glint flashing in his eyes, then turned to Xu Ziyin and said, “After today, the Spirit Sword Pavilion will only grow stronger than before. Rest assured！”
　　Xu Ziyin clenched his fists as he gazed at the figures above and said darkly, “That Ye Wushuang—capture him alive. I want to torment him slowly, making him beg for death yet unable to die！”
　　Hearing this, Bu Baiyi frowned slightly but ultimately nodded.
　　In truth, after years of friendship with Xu Ziyin, he knew Xu Ziyin was someone with remarkable composure.
　　It seems this time, he’s really driven mad by Ye Wushuang！
　　At this moment, dozens of Fire Demon Blood Rocs landed one by one, and from their backs, figures descended one after another, totaling several hundred people.
　　Among these hundreds, most were Star Plucking Realm experts, along with a portion of Delusion Realm masters.
　　At the forefront were five individuals, their auras exceptionally formidable and terrifying.
　　Five Saint Heaven Realm experts！
　　The leader was a woman who appeared to be in her thirties, exuding charm and radiance.
　　”Sorry, Baiyi, we’re a bit late…”
　　The woman spoke with a hint of apology： “The Fang Clan’s people were restless, so we had to deal with some trouble before coming.”
　　Bu Baiyi nodded and said, “Not too late yet.”
　　Xu Ziyin looked at the woman and was momentarily stunned.
　　Huo Rumeng！
　　Huo Rumeng, the beloved daughter of the Fire Cloud Valley’s master in the West Wind Continent, and now Bu Baiyi’s wife！
　　No one expected her to come in person.
　　Sensing Xu Ziyin’s gaze, Huo Rumeng immediately apologized： “I’m truly sorry, Brother Xu. Baiyi had explained everything to me earlier, but today was truly an unexpected situation.”
　　Seeing Huo Rumeng being so polite, Xu Ziyin’s pent-up rage had nowhere to vent. He could only nod and force a smile.
　　”In that case, let’s begin！”
　　Bu Baiyi said at this moment： “Disciples of the Fire Cloud Valley, listen to my order—kill every last one of the people from the Holy Heaven Sect, the Mystic Heaven Mansion, the Azure Sun Hall, and the Lin Family! Not a single one left alive!”
　　”Yes！”
　　”Yes！”
　　In an instant, hundreds of people erupted with waves of powerful and terrifying murderous auras, enveloping the surrounding world.
