Chapter 170: The Treasure in Hand

"If you put it that way, everything makes sense now. I suppose when someone made a move against the Tianwu Realm earlier, they might have been trying to make it one of the merged lower realms!"

"A conspiracy! There must be something going on here that we don't know about!"

"It seems the person behind this definitely wants to achieve something, and it's a massive scheme!"

If it weren't for Senior Zhu, the mastermind behind all this would have already succeeded.

"Good thing our Senior Zhu knew everything in advance!"

Qiya spoke up, analyzing the current situation.

After hearing Qiya's words, everyone understood immediately.

They all looked at Zhu Xiaoyuan with gazes filled with worship.

This was simply too terrifying.

"As expected, there's a reason why Senior Zhu has stayed in the Tianwu Realm all this time. The senior is plotting a grand master plan!"

The Holy Master of Ziyang could not help but exclaim.

He felt as though he finally understood a little.

"Alas... It seems we don't even have the qualification to watch this game of chess. Before we even had time to react, Senior Zhu had already accomplished all of this."

Changsun Chenglong's complexion was rather unsightly; he was still in a state of shock!

Demon Commander Qiya continued in a low voice, "I just wonder what kind of person actually wanted to make all the lower realms merge together. This move is clearly a meticulously planned grand design!"

At this thought, Qiya could not help but glance in the direction of Zhu Xiaoyuan.

This was the master of the Forbidden Land.

Even a tree planted casually by his hand could be linked to the life and death of hundreds of worlds.

Countless living beings, their lives and deaths, hung entirely upon his single thought.

...

At this moment.

In the Diwen Realm.

The continent that originally belonged solely to the Diwen Realm now had its tectonic plates connected to other worlds.

"Our Diwen Realm has now been completely amalgamated!"

"The Diwen Realm no longer possesses independence; it can only be considered a region of the new world..."

An elder could not help but mutter.

His eyes were filled with shock.

"Elder... what should we do now?"

Yang Dingyan's eyes were vacant; it was only after hearing the elder speak repeatedly that he hazily snapped back to reality.

He was still gripped by fear and panic.

Could anything be more terrifying than this?

The grand fusion array they had painstakingly set up had inexplicably failed just like that, and they had no idea why.

The turbulent vortexes they had meticulously arranged had also vanished without a sound.

And for reasons completely unknown to them, the hundred lower realms that were supposed to combine with the Diwen Realm had now been accepted by the Tianwu Realm, becoming a part of the Tianwu Realm!

If this matter were reported to the branch, and further up to the sect, probably not a single person in their Diwen Realm branch would survive.

Song Donghua's expression was grim.

He took a step into the air and looked at the boundless expanse of land surrounding him, his face sinking into gloom.

"I think you were right!"

"This place probably really has something to do with the Primeval World! And the forbidden treasure you mentioned must exist as well, otherwise a situation like this would never have occurred!"

"It is most likely because of this forbidden treasure that our grand array failed."

Everyone held their breath, waiting for the elder's next instructions.

"However, since the matter has already happened, there is no use dwelling on it."

"It seems we have no other choice now except to head to the Tianwu Realm!"

"The Diwen Realm has lost its value now, but if we can seize control of the Tianwu Realm, we can still mend the fold after the sheep have bolted!"

"Only by doing this can we give an account to those above!"

Song Donghua said decisively!

At this moment, everyone could not help but feel perplexed.

"Elder, there is one thing I am somewhat worried about. That is... there seems to be a powerful entity over in the Tianwu Realm..."

For a moment, they did not quite dare to go over.

"You don't need to worry about that."

Song Donghua spoke directly without hesitation.

"Although the Tianwu Realm was able to disrupt our plans and turn hundreds of lower realms into its affiliates, this is likely just because the Tianwu Realm is the Primeval Realm..."

"That does not mean there are formidable experts hiding within the Tianwu Realm!"

"On the contrary, I think this is a great opportunity!"

Even though the Tianwu Realm had become the dominant force of the merger, it changed nothing; as long as they gained control of the world, the result would be the same.

Besides, knowing now that the Tianwu Realm was the Primeval World made things even better!

"If we can conquer a portion of the Primeval World for the sect, I believe the sect—no, the Immortal Lord! He will surely be pleased, and we will all be richly rewarded!"

At this moment, Song Donghua was burning with ambition!

He stretched out his palm, a sneer plastered across his face.

"What's more, I still have this thing in my hand!"

"Even if our people encounter any danger then, none of us will come to any harm!"

Song Donghua was extremely confident!

Clutched firmly in his hand was none other than a silvery-gray jar!

Upon seeing this, everyone was immensely astonished.

It was precisely this small jar that had been hovering above their heads just moments ago, ensuring their safety.

"This is..."

"Isn't this that precious treasure? No, is this a replica?"

"Didn't we have a black jar earlier? Why does this silvery-gray jar feel even more terrifying?"

Hearing the others speaking, Song Donghua sneered.

"This silvery-gray jar possesses the power of Dao!"

The power of Dao?

Upon hearing these words, everyone was momentarily stunned into a daze.

"As long as we have this treasure, so what if the Tianwu Realm has some forbidden treasure?"

"This jar contains the power of Dao! Even if a Golden Immortal were to descend today, they would have no other recourse!"

At this moment, the existence of this jar instilled confidence in everyone present.

"Follow me, we are going to the Tianwu Realm right now!"

"We will slaughter all living beings in that realm, and then take over the World Tree! We will become the masters of this world!"

Song Donghua waved his hand.

In an instant, everyone at the scene suddenly vanished from where they stood.

...

Very quickly.

In the Tianwu Realm.

The Tianwu Realm could no longer be considered the Tianwu Realm; it could only be called Tianwu Prefecture now.

A part of a new world.

A group of figures soon materialized in mid-air.

"Elder Chen Sang, take a look. Didn't you come to this place before? Can you see where that forbidden land is?"

Yang Dingyan asked first.

Elder Chen Sang hesitated, but after pondering for a moment, he still decided to step forward and lead the group toward the forbidden land!

"Everyone, follow me."

With Elder Chen Sang leading the way, he quickly brought the group before the Nanling Mountain Range.

A quiet little mountain village immediately appeared before their eyes.

"What is this place? Is this the forbidden land Elder Chen Sang spoke of?"
