Chapter 701: The Kun Peng Clan’s Plans

Kun Zhi, who had just stepped into the Void City, stopped walking, his expression turning ugly.

Kun Xue, who was following him, looked at Kun Zhi in confusion. “Senior Brother Zhi, what happened?”

Kun Zhi tried his best to calm down as he replied slowly, “Kun Wei was killed just now.”

Only Di Jiu most likely could and had dared to kill Kun Wei. This implied that Di Jiu had been waiting outside the Shadow Void Castle and had immediately taken action against Kun Wei and Fan Yuan the moment he had seen that Kun Zhi and Kun Xue had left the castle.

“That bastard! I want to swallow that weakling whole!” Kun Xue, who was enraged, turned and got ready to charge to the Shadow Void Castle.

Kun Zhi stopped Kun Xue, who stared at him with bloodshot eyes. “Senior Brother Zhi, what are you trying to do?”

Kun Zhi stared at Kun Xue and asked coldly, “How powerful do you think the two of us are in comparison to Kun Wei and Fan Yuan combined?”

Kun Xue calmed down, as he understood what Kun Zhi was implying. The two of them were indeed stronger than Kun Wei and Fan Yuan together, but this difference was not absolute.

Kun Zhi, who saw that Kun Xue had calmed down, leveled his tone and said, “You should have already known that we could never suppress Kun Wei and Fan Yuan with our strength, Kun Wei. Plus, think of how long it has been since we left the Shadow Void Castle. Based on my observation of the video captured, Di Jiu did not face many difficulties when killing Kun Wei. He seemed to possess a Connate treasure. Dao Chuanxun helped Di Jiu as well. What are our chances of winning if we head over now? Perhaps Di Jiu is waiting at the Shadow Void Castle for us to head over.”

“So, do we just let Kun Wei’s death go?” He clenched his fists tightly, feeling bitter and reluctant.

Kun Zhi responded solemnly, “I was wrong. We should never have split up to deal with someone like Di Jiu. Since everything is set in stone and we cannot right this wrong, the only thing we can do is quickly return to the clan and request our ancestor’s assistance.”

Kun Xue looked at Kun Zhi incredulously. “Senior Brother Zhi, is such a move necessary?”

Kun Zhi clenched his fists as well. “Yes. I have made a grave mistake this time and miscalculated Di Jiu’s true strength. If my guess is correct, Di Jiu has yet to attain the Primordial Chaos Realm. I will not be able to exchange even three blows with him when that day arrives. This matter is no longer merely about avenging Kun Wei. The fate of the entire Kun Peng Clan is at stake here.”

…

Dao Chuanxun had already stopped walking. He took out an ancient-looking tattered map, handed it to Di Jiu, and sighed. “Brother Di, this ancient map was obtained by me and a few friends from the Void Ocean. It is said that there is a spatial rift there that’s connecting the Dao World and another realm. However, one must have a Sacred Body in order to enter this spatial rift. Otherwise, you will be only walking to your death. In truth, the chance of survival is only 50 percent within a spatial rift like this.”

“It was only when we arrived at the Void City that we realized there was no Dao fruit inside the Dao Fruit Pagoda that could allow us to attain the Sacred Body. Besides, only I am still loitering in this area. The rest of them have all either died or gone missing. I intend to scout this void to see if I can find the method to get to Heaven’s Beyond.”

“Brother Dao, are you not following me back to the Void Ocean?” Di Jiu inquired.

Dao Chuanxun shook his head. “I do not possess the strength to do so currently. Besides, I have no intention to, as I wish to head to Heaven’s Beyond. One more thing, Brother Di. I suggest that you do not return if you have yet to attain a Sacred Body. The spatial rift is not an ordinary place to be in, and there is no way of retreating once you enter the rift.”

“Thank you, Brother Dao. Let us exchange communication pearls. I might be able to help you enter Heaven’s Beyond in the future.” Di Jiu took out his communication pearl. Dao Chuanxun had helped tremendously by giving him the tattered spatial rift map.

Di Jiu might head to the Beyond of Heaven and Earth with Tang Beiwei if he came back to the Void City. When that day came, he would invite Dao Chuanxun and Jiao Da along. He did not explain to Dao Chuanxun that he already had the Sacred Body.

…

Di Jiu carefully looked at this tattered map after Dao Chuanxun left. Then, he applauded himself for killing some experts.

There was a location indicated on the map itself. He needed to possess the locale ball of this void in order to reach that spot, and there was such a locale ball in the rings of Ji Hongsen and Xiang Mu, whom he had killed.

Di Jiu took out his flying boat, let Lightning out, and passed the locale ball and the tattered map to it. This journey would take quite a while, and he intended to make use of every second to increase his cultivation.

…

The Kun Peng Clan was situated in a vast void mountain. The average cultivator would not be able to find it, as this void mountain was obscured by a natural concealment array.

At that moment, the atmosphere of the entire Kun Peng Clan was extremely solemn. Even Kun Kuntian, the ancestor who had entered seclusion for numerous years, had come out. Kun Kuntian was currently seated beside the Clan Leader with a grave expression on his wrinkled face.

Kun Zhi had just recounted everything, and the Kun Peng Clan experts gathered there all understood what had happened.

“Kun Zhi, you have made a mistake this time. I suspect that the Demon Clan might be trying to play tricks to lure the Kun Peng Clan out.”

Kun Qianhe’s aura was majestic, and his cultivation was much stronger than Kun Zhi’s.

“Yes, I had not thought things through thoroughly. I was too fixated on the mutated Kun Peng descendant.” Kun Zhi admitted to his mistake while bowing his head in apology. He suspected that Fan Yuan was only thinking of killing Di Jiu and was not doing it to lure the Kun Peng Clan. If that was the motive, Fan Yuan would not have to put his own life on the line.

Kun Kuntian waved his hand dismissively. “Kun Zhi, you were not wrong to seek out a mutated Kun Peng descendant like Lightning. The Kun Peng Clan has hidden away from the world in this mountain for a very long time and perhaps will remain here forever if no true expert is born. Your mistake was thinking that your strength was sufficient to dominate this realm.”

“Ancestor, there are really no Dao Integration experts in this realm. Junior Brother Zhi is currently at the half-step Dao Integration Realm, so he can be considered an apex expert in this realm,” said Kun Qianhe respectfully in an attempt to help Kun Zhi explain.

Kun Kuntian was the only Dao Integration expert in the Kun Peng Clan and in this realm. Therefore, everyone in the Kun Peng Clan would be extremely respectful to him regardless of their identity or position.

Kun Kuntian said, “I am not blaming Kun Zhi. However, this matter is very serious and Kun Zhi should have notified me immediately so that I would come out of seclusion. I understand that all of you want my cultivation to attain greater heights, but in truth, my cultivation level has remained stagnant ever since I attained the Dao Integration Realm more than a million years ago. Even if this situation had not occurred, the Kun Peng Clan could no longer have continued to hide away in this mountain.”

“Are we leaving?” exclaimed Kun Xue, who was at the perfected Primordial Chaos Realm.

To all Kun Peng Clan cultivators, the Kun Mountain was their root and home. If anyone else had forced them to leave this mountain, they would have battled it out with that person.

Kun Kuntian sighed and replied, “That’s right, we need to leave. Based on what Kun Zhi said, Di Jiu could battle on even ground with him even though he is only at the Primordial Dao Realm. Now, imagine if Di Jiu attained the Primordial Chaos Realm. Then, even I might not be his match. Plus, Di Jiu is an Array Dao expert so he would find this place sooner or later.”

“The Kun Peng Clan will fight to the end and bring Di Jiu down if he comes!” hollered Kun Xue as he clenched his fists.

Kun Kuntian waved his hand. “The Kun Peng Clan has never lacked courage, but bravery alone is not enough to bring the clan to greater heights. According to my prediction, a plane in the Beyond of Heaven and Earth is the home of the Kun Peng Clan. I have decided that the Kun Peng Clan will head to Heaven’s Beyond in 100 years. I will also hold a Dao discussion in the Kun Mountain during these 100 years. How much you will each benefit from it will depend on your own fate.”
