Chapter 878 Heaven-Flipping Seal Divine Skills

The skies of the Dubhe Divine Domain, a thousand miles away from the Imperial City.

An exceptionally massive Flying Celestial Ship hovered in the air. Radiating an overwhelming aura of slaughter, it looked like a behemoth capable of destroying the world at any given moment. This was Xu Xiongda’s flagship, a colossal Flying Celestial Ship temporarily renamed the Fallen God.

Xu Xiongda had renamed the ship the Fallen God partly to declare his intent to annihilate the Dubhe Divine Domain. However, the secondary meaning was a blatant threat directed at the Divine Realm Empress, making it crystal clear that he intended to subject her to a vile, degrading end.

At this moment, Zou Feng, holding the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, had already landed on the Fallen God. He certainly wasn’t going to risk having his base ambushed by leaving the Jingwu Dance Troupe members behind in the city, so he had brought the entire group along to the vicinity of the Fallen God.

As for Supreme Elder Liu Changming, who had been recuperating on the Holy Lotus... when Zou Feng was about to set off and went to personally notify him, he discovered that the Supreme Elder had already slipped away unnoticed. He figured the elder’s injuries were too severe, prompting him to return to Xu Xiongda’s side ahead of time.

"Brother Zou, why do you have Elder Wang’s Ten Thousand Souls Banner?"

After landing on the Fallen God, people frequently asked out of curiosity why Zou Feng was carrying Wang Yu’s weapon.

"You can ask him yourself," Zou Feng replied.

Before he even finished speaking, Wang Yu’s soul manifested on the banner, awkwardly explaining that he had been forced to convert into a Ghost Cultivator.

To be fair, Wang Yu possessed a remarkably resilient mindset, barely wallowing in any grief or depression. In fact, attending this meeting in his current state was his own request. However, since he had only just completed his conversion, his ghostly form was not yet stable enough, leaving him no choice but to manifest on the surface of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

Even so, because many of his fellow sect members cultivated Skills overflowing with Supreme Yang Qi, the radiating energy made Wang Yu extremely uncomfortable. This was especially true for Xu Xiongda. Even from a great distance, his Supreme Yang Qi made Wang Yu feel like he was being incinerated, turning his face an increasingly sickly shade of green.

"Elder Wang... you really don’t have to force yourself to be here," Zou Feng advised, seeing how much he was struggling to endure it.

"You are mistaken, Younger Brother Zou. I precisely want everyone to see clearly how I fought for the Immortal Sect to such an extent. Do I not deserve a heavy reward?

"Perhaps the Sect Leader will even personally lend a hand to ensure my future path of Reincarnation Rebirth goes much smoother!"

Hearing this, Zou Feng nodded, finding the logic quite reasonable. "Brilliant move, Elder Wang!"

A moment later, Xu Xiongda noticed Wang Yu’s miserable state.

"Hm? Elder Wang, what happened to you..." As he spoke, Xu Xiongda began walking toward the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

Wang Yu immediately let out a miserable wail. "Sect Leader Xu... please don’t... don’t come any closer! I’m melting..."

Xu Xiongda finally realized what was happening and stopped his approach. After asking for the cause, he flew into an uncontrollable rage. "The Wuxiang Emperor again!"

Just from those words, Zou Feng knew that Wang Yu definitely wasn’t the only one who had been ambushed by the Wuxiang Emperor. After asking around among the nearby sect members, he learned that the Wuxiang Emperor had already killed three Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators from the Immortal Sect using unpredictable sneak attacks. Although Wang Yu hadn’t technically perished, he was practically crippled, relying entirely on the unique properties of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner to remain functional.

"That Wuxiang Emperor is indeed formidable. His assassinations and sneak attacks are simply impossible to defend against. Even though this old man wasn’t ambushed by that scoundrel, I still suffered quite a bit at his hands..."

The one speaking was none other than Supreme Elder Liu Changming, who had previously supported Zou Feng before leaving without a word. Sure enough, this man had already returned to Xu Xiongda’s side ahead of time.

"With the Wuxiang Emperor waiting for an opportunity to strike and Gongyang Yunlan issuing a formal challenge to duel you, I’m afraid..." Although Liu Changming didn’t finish his sentence, his opposition to Xu Xiongda accepting the duel couldn’t be any more obvious.

Hearing this, Xu Xiongda sneered. "Elder Liu, stop boosting the enemy’s morale while dampening our own. Even if Gongyang Yunlan and the Wuxiang Emperor attack me together, what can they possibly do to me?"

Liu Changming smiled bitterly. "But..."

Xu Xiongda impatiently waved his hand to cut him off. "Elder Liu, you’ve been in secluded cultivation for far too long. There are many current affairs you don’t fully understand, so I won’t blame you."

At that, Liu Changming couldn’t say anything more and simply let out a helpless sigh.

Witnessing this scene, Zou Feng found himself quite puzzled. He actually strongly agreed with Xu Xiongda’s stance. The Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect clearly held every advantage right now, cornering the Divine Realm Empress and forcing her to resort to desperate measures. Even though Liu Changming was merely thinking of Xu Xiongda’s safety, he seemed entirely out of touch with the current situation.

Setting aside his blatant act of boosting the enemy’s morale while dampening their own, he shouldn’t assume that just because he had suffered a setback against the Wuxiang Emperor, the other top-tier fighters of the Immortal Sect would be equally helpless. In other words, no matter how brilliant the Wuxiang Emperor’s sneak attacks were, could he possibly ambush the Vice Sect Leader of the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect? If he truly possessed such capability, he would likely be the one sitting on the throne of the Dubhe Divine Domain instead. It seemed that, just as Xu Xiongda had said, Liu Changming had been in secluded cultivation for so long that his mind had grown muddled with age.

Unexpectedly, another Supreme Elder walked in. His brows were deeply furrowed as if he had just caught wind of some major trouble. Three Supreme Elders had been deployed for the conquest of the Dubhe Divine Domain, and Zou Feng had already paid his respects to each of them earlier. The newcomer was named Lin Mu. In Zou Feng’s eyes, Lin Mu was likely the strongest of the three Supreme Elders.

"Xiongda, there is indeed a massive problem with Gongyang Yunlan challenging you to a duel!"

As soon as Lin Mu said this, most of the people present revealed expressions of shock and suspicion.

What was going on? Did even Elder Lin doubt that Xu Xiongda could defeat the Empress in a one-on-one duel?
