The entire ground began to shake.
Suddenly, demonic Qi soared into the sky, completely obscuring the northern horizon.
A demonic wind blew through, instantly swirling sand and stones, darkening the skies and land.
From the roar of the beast alone, one could deduce how powerful it was.
The firmant itself seed to be veiled by a dark demonic Qi.
Xu Zii looked up at the firmant, feeling as though countless eyes had appeared at that mont.
All fixated on the inside of Heavenly Dao Academy.
The next mont, a white barrier began to spread outwards from the center of Heavenly Dao Academy.
Enveloping the entire academy.
Then ca a shrouding mist, hiding everything and blocking those prying gazes.
"Quite lively, isn’t it?" Xu Zii said with a light chuckle.
"Is there sothing going on?" Bai Lin asked with a serious gaze.
"Relax, it’s not our turn yet," Xu Zii laughed.
"We’ll be affected when the fight spreads out fully."
Mystical phenona continued to occur within Heavenly Dao Academy.
Golden lotuses sprang from the ground, stacking in layers, rising above the firmant, blooming everywhere.
There were also roars of a golden lion’s phantom, its foot smashing through the smoky void, as if to break through the illusion and erge.
Demonic winds ford tornadoes, sweeping through half of the Heavenly Dao Academy.
Most unguarded buildings were destroyed.
The cracks in the ground grew from a dozen to thousands.
And they only multiplied, eventually becoming chasms.
For a ti, tumultuous clouds gathered, and color drained from earth and sky, sun and moon retreated.
A stream of cascading light ca swiftly from the edge of the sky, striking heavily against the academy’s outer white barrier.
With a "boom," the barrier exploded, sending ripples in all directions.
A figure in a purple robe dispersed the mist, appearing outside the barrier.
This purple-robed figure exuded a majestic aura.
Standing on the firmant, he seed to suppress it, with thunder power surging around him.
The sound of "crackling" burst forth from within him.
The purple robe fluttered wildly in the raging wind.
The man’s gaze bore an implicit majesty as he looked towards Heavenly Dao Academy.
His voice, resonating with supre power, called out, "Where is Ming Jian?"
His voice echoed throughout Heavenly Dao Academy.
"Who is Ming Jian?" Xu Zii turned to Bai Lin and asked.
"You don’t know this?" Bai Lin said helplessly.
"Haven’t you ever looked into the history of our academy?"
Xu Zii shook his head with a smile.
"Our Heavenly Dao Academy was founded by ten ancestral teachers, and Ming Jian was a disciple of the Glinting Sword Saint among them.
He is also one of the oldest ancestors in terms of aptitude in our academy now," Bai Lin explained.
Xu Zii nodded slightly, his gaze shifting back to the purple-robed figure in the firmant.
"His attire seems sowhat familiar," he said.
"That’s the garb of the Heavenly Emperor Gate, of course, it’s familiar," Bai Lin replied with a cold snort.
"This man should be the Thunder Dazzle Ancestor, the third Great Emperor’s War General of the Heavenly Emperor Gate."
"Heavenly Emperor Gate?" Upon hearing Bai Lin’s words, Xu Zii finally rembered.
He had previously had so grudges with the Heavenly Emperor Gate.
The Xiang Kunlun he had slain was the Saint Heir of the Heavenly Emperor Gate.
However, since their duel was fair and he was the Saint Heir of the True Martial Holy Sect,
it was not easy for them to trouble him, and the matter had since subsided. He did not expect to encounter them again.
"It is said that seven Imperial Rule Immortal Sects are leading the attack on Heavenly Dao Academy this ti; it seems Heavenly Emperor Gate is one of them," Xu Zii said smilingly.

.......
At this mont, above the vast firmant, following Thunder Dazzle Ancestor’s voice.
Inside the Heavenly Dao Academy, a figure equally stepped into the void to et the confrontation head-on.
This figure was none other than the Vice Dean of the Heavenly Dao Academy, Li Changhe.
Clad in a white robe, with an extraordinary temperant, he regarded his opponent with a torrential presence.
"May I know what brings Thunder Dazzle Ancestor to our Heavenly Dao Academy?" Li Changhe inquired.
"Vice Dean Li, let’s not beat around the bush. I’ll be frank, I want the Glazed Glass Lamp from the Glazed Glass Palace.
Just hand it over, and our Heavenly Emperor Gate will imdiately withdraw from this conflict," Thunder Dazzle Ancestor said indifferently.
"Thunder Dazzle, back in the day when the Northern Emperor was young, he too practiced at our Heavenly Dao Academy.
Benefiting from the teachings of our ancestral master, and now your Heavenly Emperor Gate wishes to attack here?" Li Changhe said coldly.
The Northern Emperor was indeed the second Great Emperor of the Heavenly Emperor Gate.
Hearing Li Changhe’s words, Thunder Dazzle Ancestor chuckled lightly.
He replied, "The Northern Emperor ancestor did indeed receive favor from your Heavenly Dao Academy.
But in the era when he was entrusted with Destiny, he also safeguarded your Heavenly Dao Academy, granting it a thousand years of peace.
That favor has been repaid."
With that, Thunder Dazzle Ancestor’s aura surged, transforming into a river of thunder surrounding the area.
"In today’s world, where Great Emperors have yet to erge, it’s a ga of the survival of the fittest.
Surely your Heavenly Dao Academy can’t expect to threaten our Heavenly Emperor Gate into eternity with just that bit of favor.
I’m not greedy, just one Glazed Glass Lamp is all I want."
"If that is the case, then there is nothing left to say," Li Changhe stated flatly.
"If you wish to fight, then let’s fight."
"It seems Vice Dean Li is indeed blinded by his own convictions.
Ming Jian does not unsheath readily; he probably cannot escape his fate," Thunder Dazzle Ancestor said casually.
"When the Heavenly Cang Demon Roc is free from its bonds, that will be the mont our seven Imperial Rule Immortal Sects launch their attack on the Heavenly Dao Academy.
Then I shall see how you defend yourselves."
After finishing his words, Thunder Dazzle Ancestor’s figure vanished into the mist.
Leaving only Li Changhe, standing alone in the void, his expression one of anger.
.......
"The Heavenly Emperor Gate is truly treacherous," Bai Lin said, sowhat indignant.
"Now that the Heavenly Dao Academy is in trouble, whether or not there are past friendships, even if they don’t offer aid, they shouldn’t kick us while we’re down."
"Who would’ve thought the piece of pri at that is the Heavenly Dao Academy would be so large," Xu Zii said with a smile.
His gaze was fixed on the demonic Qi that soared into the sky from the north.
He had yet to see such dense demonic Qi.
It was so potent that it even surpassed the presence of those who had Stepped into Immortality.
But Xu Zii knew in his heart that beings surpassing Stepping into Immortality did not exist in this world.
The Divine Emperor was an exception; he couldn’t stay long and would ultimately head to the Heaven Beyond Heavens.
For the rules of the Heavenly Dao did not permit it, such beings would only disrupt the developnt of the Yuan Central Continent.
Their existence would render Destiny aningless.
Ti was slipping away, and more and more eyes were gathering around the Heavenly Dao Academy.
Everyone was eyeing this piece of pri at, nurtured over several eras.
Eventually, when dawn approached on the second day.
The Firmant to the north utterly collapsed, demonic Qi annihilated everything, and a wild windstorm whipped up.
Amidst the flying sand and stones, Xu Zii saw a massive figure soaring into the sky, gliding across the Firmant.
The roaring of the beast echoed back and forth, each bellow stronger than the last.
"I’m out, I’ve finally erged," a hoarse voice bellowed.
As if it was releasing an endless amount of pent-up resentnt.
"Ten ancestral masters, you can’t confine .
No one can."
