Chapter 2568: Chapter 2568: Deep Infiltration

Even though the Thunder Domain has been controlled by Hongmeng City, each city either belongs directly to Hongmeng City or is under its supervision.

However, those who belong to the Hongmeng City system are few in number. Across the entire Thunder Domain, among the numerous cities, cultivators are as plentiful as stars. In any given city, the majority are inevitably loose cultivators. These loose cultivators don’t hold much loyalty towards Hongmeng City.

With Nanping City shattered, the attitude of these cultivators and adventurers essentially boils down to enjoying the spectacle.

It cannot be said that cultivators hope to see Hongmeng City fail. If three black-clad killing stars from Yama Palace were slain by Hongmeng City’s people, these cultivators would equally gather with relish to discuss it.

However, as it currently stands, the vast majority of cultivators still believe that the alliance led by Yama Palace is stronger. Most people think that the victor in the end will be the alliance led by Yama Palace, not Leiyu Hongmeng City.

The alliance led by Yama Palace is truly terrifying. Yama Palace, Tianji Trading House, Eight Gods Pill Sect, Sima Family, and the Moon Frost Sect from the Extreme North—these superpowers are united, virtually unstoppable. Not to mention, there are more than a dozen strong first-rate forces joining them.

In the Heavenly Domain, a group of pitch-black Heavenly Domain Flying Boats is heading rapidly towards the Thunder Domain.

This fleet of Heavenly Domain Flying Boats belongs to the alliance led by Yama Palace. On one of these flying boats, the palace master of Yama Palace, Yu Hentian, along with leaders of various forces, is gathered in a luxurious hall on the top floor.

At this moment, Yu Hentian received a message from the three black-clad killing stars, a smile appearing on his face.

"Ladies and gentlemen! The City Lord Mansion of Nanping City in the Thunder Domain has been destroyed," Yu Hentian said with a smile to everyone present.

"So Nanping City has been taken?"

"So quickly? The capabilities of Yama Palace’s black-clad killing stars are indeed formidable."

"It’s a pity though, although Nanping City was conquered, we can’t occupy it for the time being."

"..."

The giants are all in high spirits, offering flattery to Yu Hentian.

"Although we can’t occupy it for now, I believe with Hongmeng City’s capabilities, it’s impossible for them to regain control of this city in a short time. Moreover, breaking Nanping City is just the beginning; more Thunder Domain cities will be shattered next. That bandit Jing Yan is probably already furious, but he has no recourse," Yu Hentian said with a smile.

"That little thief has always been extremely arrogant, now let him understand that Jing Yan is nothing," President Jiang Yue of Tianji Trading House said with a laugh.

"Haha, by the time we arrive at the Thunder Domain, it might already be in chaos. Then, our forces will advance with overwhelming momentum all the way to the outside of Hongmeng City, and then we will break Hongmeng City and slay the bandit Jing Yan," Sima Tianyang of the Sima Family said with a laugh, full of high spirits.

The fleet of Heavenly Domain Flying Boats speeds towards the Thunder Domain.

A few days later.

Hongmeng City Lord Mansion.

"Damn!" Chief Bai Han’s face was gloomy.

Just now, a second city in the Thunder Domain was breached by the three black-clad killing stars, another intermediate-sized city. The personnel belonging to the Hongmeng City system within the city were slaughtered by seventy to eighty percent, with very few managing to escape.

"Damn it! Wait for Chief Xu Yiming to arrive with the High-level Thunder Warriors, then it will be your death day!" Bai Han was so angry that his body slightly trembled.

Days passed by.

Cities in the Thunder Domain were breached one after another. These breached cities belonged directly to the Hongmeng City system. The renown of Yama Palace’s black-clad killing stars spread from within the Thunder Domain to the entire Heavenly Domain, and now even ordinary cultivators know their name.

Under the onslaught of the black-clad killing stars, Hongmeng City suffered heavy losses. Up to now, two Immortal Venerable Realm personnel from Hongmeng City have died at the hands of the black-clad killing stars. Moreover, among the broken cities, two cities housed Hongmeng Pill Tower branches, and the elixirs within these branches were all pillaged by the black-clad killing stars.

"Grand Steward, I have arrived at Holy Radiance City." On this day, Xu Yiming conveyed a message to Bai Han.

Holy Radiance City was a Thunder Domain city just breached by the black-clad killing stars.

"Chief Yiming, it’s up to you to stop the black-clad killing stars!" Bai Han said.

"Rest assured, Chief. I will do my utmost. Now, I will look into the whereabouts of the black-clad killing stars," Xu Yiming responded.

Two days later!

From a city not far from Holy Radiance City, news emerged of an attack by black-clad killing stars. Xu Yiming, upon receiving this news, immediately led ten High-level Thunder Warriors to that city. When Xu Yiming arrived, the city had already been breached. The three black-clad killing stars had just left the city.

Xu Yiming unfolded his powerful Divine Soul Power, tracing the aura of the black-clad killing stars. As a Soul Cultivator, Xu Yiming’s tracking prowess far exceeds that of other Immortal Venerable Peak Practitioners. Within mere breaths, Xu Yiming locked onto the black-clad killing stars’ aura.

Without any hesitation, Xu Yiming, accompanied by ten Thunder Warriors, pursued them.

Chen Feng and the other three black-clad killing stars were in flight.

"What’s the next target city? How about we take a look at Dingyun City?" Zhao Yijun said to the other two black-clad killing stars.

Before being controlled by Hongmeng City, Dingyun City was considered the largest city within the Thunder Domain. After Hongmeng City took control, it became a key development city. Dingyun City, arguably, is one of the most important cities under Hongmeng City’s command. Within Dingyun City, Hongmeng City has placed a strong defense, with an Immortal Venerable Peak powerhouse presiding, along with several Thunder Warriors.

The Hongmeng Pill Tower branch in Dingyun City is likewise one of the largest among all the branches. Moreover, Jing Yan has even built an Earth-level Hongmeng Cultivation Tower in this city.

The three black-clad killing stars know that Dingyun City is one of the main cities within the Thunder Domain.

"I’ve heard that the protective strength placed by Jing Yan in Dingyun City is quite strong; it might be hard to breach in the short term!" Zhang Motie said, glancing at Zhao Yijun.

"The cities we have breached previously aren’t considered very important. Losing so many cities might not make Jing Yan very anxious! But if Dingyun City is destroyed, I wonder if Jing Yan will go crazy with rage," Zhao Yijun chuckled darkly.

"Chen Feng, what do you think?" Zhang Motie looked towards Chen Feng.

Chen Feng contemplated briefly before saying, "We can give it a try. If the bone’s too tough, then abandon it."

Although the status of the three black-clad killing stars seems to be the same on the surface, in reality, the highest status among them is held by Chen Feng. Otherwise, the Immortal Road Time-Space Shuttle wouldn’t be in Chen Feng’s possession.

"Very well! We are now seemingly not far from Dingyun City. If we increase our flight speed, we can reach Dingyun City within three days." Zhao Yijun’s eyes gleamed with fierce determination.
