Chapter 1253: Provocations
In the Realm of Maelstrom in the Domain of Heaven Python.
The realm was surrounded by flowing light, with many spatial rifts hidden among them.
Over many years, the Realm of Maelstrom had become the most bustling and prosperous place in the Domain of Heaven Python.
The Divine Seal Sect, Golden Vast Sect, and Thousandsword Mountain Sect occupied the three sides of the realm.
In the land that the Divine Seal Sect occupied, the large inter-domain teleportation portal that connected the Domain of the Falling Stars to Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries worked day and night.
Qi warriors from the Domain of the Falling Stars and the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries often came to the Realm of Maelstrom.
The special environment of the Realm of Maelstrom made the realm a trading center for the Domain of Heaven Python, the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries and the Domain of the Falling Stars. All kinds of spiritual materials, elixirs, incantations and secret spells from the three domains were exchanged at the Realm of Maelstrom.
The Divine Seal Sect, the Golden Vast Sect, and the Thousandsword Mountain Sect worked together to maintain order.
Nie Tian’s three domains also had some contact with the Five Elements Sect and the Void Spirit Society. Many forces and domains had a good relationship with Nie Tian, including the Water Moon Sect of the Domain of Vast Darkness, which often came to the Realm of Maelstrom.
On this day.
Outside the Realm of Maelstrom, it seemed a long narrow spatial rift in the flowing water curtain was forcibly being pushed open by some kind of power.
BOOM!
The roar of an ancient starship came out of the spatial rift.
In the Divine Seal Sect, Duan Shihu, whose cultivation base had reached the middle Soul realm, was studying an ancient scroll in a secret room, learning runes and secret spells.
When he heard the roar, he rushed out at once.
Meng Li, who was already at the late Void domain and was waiting for spiritual materials from the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace to advance to the Saint domain, floated into the air and looked towards the edge of the Realm of Maelstrom with several Qi warriors of the Divine Seal Sect.
There were Qi warriors flying into the sky above the Thousandsword Mountain Sect and the Golden Vast Sect.
Hua Mu and Qi Bailu, who happened to be in the Realm of Maelstrom, looked up into the sky in surprise.
An ancient warship which was nearly a kilometer long with many mysterious patterns slowly flew through the spatial rift.
The warship drove into the sky above the Realm of Maelstrom.
A line of six Saint domain experts stepped out, floated proudly, and looked down at all the people in the Realm of Maelstrom below with indifferent eyes, as if they were looking at mosquitoes.
There weren’t any Saint domain experts in the Realm of Maelstrom at present.
The six Saint domain experts stood still. Behind them, dozens of Void domain experts came out. Judging from their clothes and ornaments, they clearly belonged to the same sect.
The Qi warriors standing on the warship behind the Void domain experts were mostly at the Soul realm and Profound realm.
All of them emitted a killing aura. It seemed they were veterans on the battlefield, and their weapons often killed people.
There were Qi warriors from the Domain of Vast Darkness, the Domain of Endless Thunder, and the Domain of Heaven’s Origin who froze for a while before they suddenly shouted loudly, “The Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect!”
“Gosh! They’re actually from the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect!”
“That’s right! Judging from the warship and the clothes, they’re from the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect.”
“The Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect!” Meng Li, who was flying into the sky, gave Duan Shihu a look and said, “The Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect is very far from our Domain of Heaven Python. Why are they suddenly flocking here? If they wanted to come, they shouldn’t have come by tearing open and passing through a spatial rift, should they?”
Duan Shihu said with a gloomy face, “The Domain of Heaven Python is the domain of Nie Tian, with the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace as his backer. Before coming, the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect should have informed us first.”
The other people discussed this strange arrival.
“Is Nie Tian here?”
The people taking the lead among the six Saint domain experts was at the late Saint domain. He had a large head, big ears, a bare chest, and a face full of golden light.
The necklace around his neck was made from white bones.
As he spoke, a piercing whistle came from within the necklace of bones.
Hearing that whistle, everyone in the Realm of Maelstrom felt a sense of terror as their heads became numb and their eardrums were almost pierced.
“Monk Goldbone of the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect!”
Qi warriors that knew about the sect raised their heads to take a closer look. Soon, they paled, quickly lowered their heads, and snuck to the teleportation portals of the Golden Vast Sect, Thousandsword Mountain Sect, and Divine Seal Sect in a bid to leave the Realm of Maelstrom as soon as possible.
“Nie Tian is not in the Domain of Heaven Python now.” Meng Li bit the bullet, walked to the front, and bowed to the man as a junior. “This junior is Meng Li, an elder of the Divine Seal Sect. I...”
“Does the Divine Seal Sect only have an elder?” The man whose face was full of golden light chuckled.
He shook his sleeves.
A ray of golden light came out of his sleeves and formed a golden whip that sent Meng Li crashing down from midair into the palaces of the Divine Seal Sect.
BOOM!
She smashed a stone building in her fall.
A Qi warrior from the Golden Vast Sect who was at the early Soul realm couldn’t help but shout, “Your Excellency! The Realm of Maelstrom is a realm of Nie Tian, the seventh Son of the Stars of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace… You...”
“Soul realm...”
Monk Goldbone laughed.
His laughter suddenly became shrill and became a sound that could break souls and kill people.
The Qi warrior from the Golden Vast Sect who came forward to rebuke him suddenly fell silent, his ears dripping with blood and his body falling feebly like a broken kite.
Before his body could fall to the ground, his soul was shattered.
“Lu Fei!” Cried another Qi warrior from the Golden Vast Sect, catching his body in mid-air.
When all the people looked up again, all their eyes were full of hatred. They choked with silent fury.
“You don’t deserve to talk to me.” Monk Goldbone was still smiling. “If Nie Tian is not here, then ask Saint domain experts like Jing Feiyang, Quan Zixuan and Qu Mingde to come to me as soon as possible. Also, tell the seventh Son of the Stars Nie Tian as soon as possible that we, the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect, are interested in the Domain of Heaven Python, the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries, and Domain of the Falling Stars.”
“Tell Nie Tian and all the masters of the three domains to come to the Realm of Maelstrom within half a month and get ready to welcome the sectmaster of our Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect.”
In an instant, all the experts of the Realm of Maelstrom burst into an uproar.
“The Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace is no longer a backer you can rely on. That so-called ancient sect is no longer as glorious as it was.” Monk Goldbone giggled and said casually, “We will carve up and take over the thirteen domains, the realms of all the Sons of the Stars, and those of Chu Rui, the vice sectmaster.”
“The domains under Nie Tian’s name have been carved up and now belong to us, the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect.”
Hearing this, Meng Li, who had just walked out of the collapsed stone building, was so shocked that he spat out mouthfuls of blood and looked as white as a sheet.
“The Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect actually dares to challenge the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace’s might!”
“The world has changed. Some people even dare to go against the four ancient sects.”
“Since the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect was founded, it has been second only to the four ancient sects. Over the past 100,000 years, all of their generations have had God domain experts. It’s said that the sectmaster of this generation of the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect has been in secluded meditation for three thousand years,in an attempt to break through into the middle God domain. Perhaps the sectmaster has succeeded in breaking through?”
“The middle God domain? Did he really make it?”
“Chu Rui is stuck in the Domain of Frigid Depths. Luo Wanxiang’s whereabouts are unknown. The sectmaster and the elders are missing. With the current situation, the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace doesn’t stand a chance at defeating the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect.”
“According to Monk Goldbone’s words, the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect isn’t the only one who wants to take over the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace!”
The people who came from other domains and knew about the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect’s power whispered to each other and retreated silently to the teleportation portals.
“Sorry, we’re in a hurry to get back to the Domain of Heaven’s Origin.”
“We’re busy and must leave.”
After that, the visitors activated the inter-domain teleportation portals and hastily left the Realm of Maelstrom.
Most of those visitors didn’t have a close relationship with the Realm of Maelstrom. They were only from adjacent domains. Because they knew that the Realm of Maelstrom gathered all kinds of spiritual materials and the travel was convenient, they came here.
Upon hearing that the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect was going to break into Nie Tian’s three domains and that war was about to begin, of course they wanted to flee as far as possible.
After they left, they spread word that the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect had broken into the Realm of Maelstrom. The news that Monk Goldbone killed a Qi warrior and insisted that Nie Tian and the masters of the sects of the three domains wait for the arrival of the sectmaster of the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect spread at the fastest speed.
Receiving the news, the sects of many domains were all shocked.
The Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect had openly provoked the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace!
