At the foot of Heavenly Sect’s mountain in the Ancient Domain, everyone fell silent!
And it happened right in front of a Yellow Heaven Sect Dao Foundation expert, forcibly slain by Lu Changsheng without the slightest hint of mercy.
Lu Changsheng killed Xu Haotian outright!
This scene caused countless disciples to tremble in their hearts.
If it were them, would they dare kill Xu Haotian in front of a Dao Foundation expert?
Even knowing that an Ancient Domain Heavenly Sect Dao Foundation expert was protecting them.
But, would they dare?
Asking themselves, they knew they wouldn’t dare!
The number of people with such courage is slim.
After all, no matter how powerful the Divine Treasure Realm is, how could it possibly compare to a Dao Foundation?
Dao Foundation experts stand high above all.
They are often the core of great sects.
Like the Ancient Domain’s Heavenly Sect.
Any Dao Foundation expert is typically the master of a hall.
Or at least a senior elder with significant authority.
Offending such figures is undoubtedly a grave matter that has consequences.
No one expected Lu Changsheng to be so decisive, directly killing Xu Haotian.
The Dao Foundation expert from Yellow Heaven Sect, Xu Haotian’s master, turned red-eyed upon seeing Xu Haotian’s death. His killing intent surged, sending chills through everyone.
However, with the Ancient Domain Heavenly Sect’s Dao Foundation expert present, Xu Haotian’s master could do nothing to Lu Changsheng.
"Well done, Lu Changsheng! I will remember you."
With these words, the Yellow Heaven Sect Dao Foundation expert turned and left.
After all, this was Ancient Domain Heavenly Sect territory, and staying here held no purpose for him.
Lu Changsheng had no regrets about slaying Xu Haotian. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on No(ᴠ)ᴇlFire.nᴇt
Even if it meant offending a Dao Foundation expert and being held in his vengeful thoughts, he would still kill Xu Haotian.
At this moment, Xu Haotian was already dead.
His body had turned into dust.
Yet an ancient bronze bell remained intact, emitting a verdant glow.
Lu Changsheng reached out, grabbing the ancient bronze bell.
"Spirit Secret Treasure!"
Upon gripping the bronze bell, Lu Changsheng’s heart surged with joy.
This was an exceptionally rare Spirit Secret Treasure.
It was unknown where Xu Haotian had obtained this Spirit Secret Treasure.
Previously, Xu Haotian had relied on this Spirit Secret Treasure to resist Lu Changsheng’s Heart Sword attack.
The sheer power of this Spirit Secret Treasure was evident.
But now, it had fallen into Lu Changsheng’s hands.
Soon, Lu Changsheng stored away the ancient bronze bell.
He looked toward the Dao Foundation expert’s figure hovering in the void.
The figure in the void slowly descended step by step.
At this moment, Lu Changsheng noticed the attire on the figure.
It was the distinctive garb of the Law Enforcement Hall.
And the Law Enforcement Hall had only one Dao Foundation expert.
The Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall, Zhong Yu!
"Thank you, Hall Master Zhong."
Lu Changsheng respectfully saluted.
The Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall was a true powerhouse in the Ancient Domain Heavenly Sect!
An essential core figure of the sect.
In the entire Ancient Domain, he was a figure of immense influence.
Such a person was far beyond just a Dao Foundation cultivator.
Take the earlier battle between Zhong Yu and the Yellow Heaven Sect Dao Foundation expert as an example.
With just a single strike, Zhong Yu shattered the mind domain of the Yellow Heaven Sect Dao Foundation expert, inflicting severe injuries upon him.
The disparity between their powers was evident at a glance.
Lu Changsheng hadn’t expected such a "big shot" to intervene on his behalf.
Zhong Yu smiled and said, "That old man just now was Huang Jiufeng, a Dao Foundation elder of Yellow Heaven Sect."
"Huang Jiufeng was Xu Haotian’s master. Killing Xu Haotian in his presence, near Ancient Domain Heavenly Sect territory, naturally Huang Jiufeng would not dare act against you."
"But once you leave the vicinity of Ancient Domain Heavenly Sect, that might change."
"Although the probability of Huang Jiufeng personally attacking you is low, he is near the end of his lifespan. Should he perform some desperate act, you must remain cautious."
"Nonetheless, you need not worry too much. I will personally exert pressure on Yellow Heaven Sect, ensuring they restrain Huang Jiufeng."
Lu Changsheng saluted again, saying, "Thank you, Hall Master Zhong, for your assistance."
"Haha, you’re truly remarkable—five combined domains. In terms of combat strength, you are already one of the top Divine Treasure cultivators."
"However, cultivation’s foundation lies in the mind domain. Focus on expanding your mind domain as quickly as possible."
After speaking, Zhong Yu turned and vanished step by step.
Seeing Lu Changsheng conversing amiably with Hall Master Zhong.
The surrounding disciples were filled with envy.
"That’s Hall Master Zhong! The esteemed head of the Law Enforcement Hall, yet he’s so approachable?"
"Haha, that depends on who it is. Hall Master Zhong isn’t courteous to just anyone."
"Hall Master Zhong personally acted against Yellow Heaven Sect’s Dao Foundation elder Huang Jiufeng, supporting Senior Brother Lu. It seems that Senior Brother Lu has caught the eyes of Hall Master Zhong, or even Ancient Domain Heavenly Sect’s upper ranks..."
Zhong Yu’s appearance signifies far more than just himself.
It’s undoubtedly the intention of Ancient Domain Heavenly Sect’s higher-ups.
It conveys a message to the outside world.
Lu Changsheng cannot be provoked!
Should anyone dare harm Lu Changsheng, Ancient Domain Heavenly Sect will not let it go!
Lu Changsheng glanced around.
He did not remain at the mountain’s foot but quickly ascended.
"Wait! Xu Haotian is dead. This matter has escalated; Xu Haotian isn’t just a True Disciple of Yellow Heaven Sect. He’s also on the Dao Foundation Candidate List!"
"Exactly, Xu Haotian being on the Dao Foundation Candidate List means he was among the top 100 Divine Treasure martial artists in the Ancient Domain with the highest chances of forming a Dao Foundation. This list, like the Immortal Dao Foundation Establishment Candidate List, wields considerable influence across the entire Ancient Domain, as only top-tier Divine Treasure cultivators who have achieved a mind domain expansion of ninety miles or more qualify to be listed."
