Lu Chen felt a wave of relief inside. If this was the case, things had not yet reached the point of no return.
Family karma was a tribulation, and whether one could successfully cross this tribulation was of paramount importance to every cultivator.
This era still retained its unique characteristics, which had to be observed. Of course, observing these rules was ultimately to break through them in the best possible way later on.
David, the culprit who ignited this fire, was propelled all the way back by the recoil of the dragon's breath until he hit the deep crater he had previously carved out with his teeth.
A thought stirred in Zhou Shengluo's mind. If the Ten-Evil Demonic Formation had indeed appeared in this cultivation world, then many things could be explained, and it naturally became clear why there was a heaven and earth prison here.
"Shen Yin, you should know that I am the Arbiter of Fate. I control all destinies, including yours." The Arbiter's words carried an unmistakable threat.
Zhou Shenglu escorted Shen Yin down from the bridal sedan. Then she had to step over a brazier and walk across a saddle. Every step of the ancient wedding rites was thoroughly observed.

So the robust, eighty-year-old man before them was none other than the Eastern Divine Dragon, the supreme overlord of the previous generation whom the Divine Mother had mentioned might know the background of the Swift-Footed Immortal?
"Sister Houtu, you and Xuanming shall guard the rear. Gonggong and I will forge the path ahead, while the Divine Farmer and King Dayu protect the main army. Let's move!" With these words, Zhu Jiuyin and the Ancestral Witch Gonggong stepped together into the towering pagoda at the center of the world.
For other sects within the cultivation world, offending the Exiled Immortal Sect might not necessarily spell total annihilation, but it would undoubtedly bring immense, suffocating pressure.

Every word spoken by Taishang Laojun was like a sharp sword, challenging the bottom line of Patriarch Hongjun. With each sentence uttered by Taishang Laojun, Patriarch Hongjun's expression grew gloomier and more terrifying, yet Taishang Laojun did not back down in the slightest.
