Chapter 846: Chapter 841: Shattered Part One

"I am in a hurry!"

Lin Yaoyang looked at Lin Xin with a solemn expression, her eyes full of tenderness and worry.

"I am destined to be infertile, but you are different. Everything else can be up to you, but this one thing, let me handle it!"

She and Lin Xin were confirmed to be infertile after careful tests and use of a large number of medicinal stone elixirs, all to no avail.

It seemed as if some kind of fate in the dark affected both her and Lin Xin, leaving them without offspring.

But Lin Yaoyang was not reconciled. Whenever she had the chance, she would ask Lin Xin for it, and even tried to find different women for Lin Xin to sleep with.

She could not accept that the strongest and most excellent bloodline of the Lin Family could not be inherited!

This was a devastating blow to her, who valued family legacy deeply.

The arrival of Bai Qingjue this time was actually influenced by her behind the scenes.

Especially after she lost contact with the Lin Family in Yueyang, her desire to ensure her own family’s bloodline only grew stronger.

Lin Xin’s thoughts turned rapidly, instantly understanding the crucial points.

"Then do as you wish." The pleasures of men and women were already a dull stimulation to him, at most like enjoying a delicacy, nothing more.

He neither valued it nor rejected it.

"You don’t understand!"

Lin Yaoyang shook her head, a trace of helplessness in her eyes.

She looked at Bai Qingjue, her face softening into a gentle smile, taking the initiative to approach and ask about his personal situation and any difficulties he might have.

Lin Xin, however, did not want to stay inside any longer.

He strode out of the hall, where several high-ranking members of the Nether Realm had already arrived outside, and three Lords of Nether City had also come at some point.

"Divine Monarch! The great disaster has arrived."

The first City Lord of Nether City, Lu Fangxun, said in a low, solemn voice.

"The great disaster...."

Lin Xin’s expression changed, suddenly looking up toward the sky of the Nether Realm.

In the sky, at some point, a black dot appeared in the dirt-yellow horizon.

The dot was initially the size of a fist, and as soon as it appeared, it rapidly contracted.

Suddenly.

Fssst!!

An extremely sharp noise spread.

All the cultivators in the Nether Realm noticed the anomaly in the sky.

Boom!!!

The black dot suddenly expanded, exploding into countless gray-white streams of air, rushing toward the great formation of the Nether Realm.

The defense had long been activated.

Whoosh!

A massive amount of gray-white air streams collided fiercely with the dirt-yellow formation shield, producing a sound like water hitting a solid surface.

The Nether Realm was in an uproar.

Countless people stood up, running out of buildings, looking up at the changed sky.

A kind of oppressive, heavy, and terrifying emotion surged from their hearts.

*******************

In the void.

The Nether Realm and the three surrounding Nether Cities were like four black disks, one large and three small, with a circle of dirt-yellow light film suddenly supporting around them.

Layer upon layer of formations and pale blue star force, combined with a vast amount of unknown energy, converged together, firmly resisting the surging gray-white air streams from the outside.

Inside the Nether Realm and Nether Cities, dense pale yellow lines kept rising, as if constantly supplementing the shield’s massive consumption.

However, the surrounding celestial bodies were not so lucky.

Anything that came into contact with the gray-white air streams, whether stone, soil, living creatures, or spacecraft, was instantly destroyed and completely submerged, leaving no trace.

The gray-white air streams seemed like a giant beast swallowing everything, and nothing but the Nether Realm and Nether Cities could escape their devouring.

A huge fleet slowly sailing toward the Nether Realm had just jumped out from a star gate when it encountered the gray-white air streams.

Boom!!!

The fleet’s shields only lasted a few moments before exploding, and all the ships were completely swallowed without even a groan.

The gigantic pale blue star gate didn’t have time to send out an emergency communication before it was instantly submerged by the gray-white air streams.

The vast black void seemed to be filled with dye, quickly becoming completely engulfed by countless gray-white substances, instantly annihilating everything.

*********************

At the main sect of Green Lake Mountain.

The Universal Heavenly Venerable held a cup of jade-like tea, slowly bringing it to his lips but unable to drink.

He sat in the Nameless Cave, surrounded by maid disciples, as formation waves and layers of high-strength energy firmly protected the entire cave.

Several other cultivators responsible for the current operation of the grand formation in Green Lake Mountain were also standing inside.

All were High Level stewards from the Golden Crown. Shen Lue Heavenly Venerable was also there, along with another Beautiful Celestial Venerable.

"Sect Master, all aspects of the grand formation have been set up. We’re just waiting for you to decide when to activate it."

The Beautiful Celestial Venerable, with a red flower hairpin, said softly.

"I hope you can determine the exact time. After the grand formation has been modified to its maximum power, it can only support for at most a day. Activating it too early or too late is inconvenient."

The Universal Heavenly Venerable frowned, his other hand clutching his contact jade talisman, which was flashing with Heavenly Venerables like Dragon Snake Heavenly Venerable and Immortal Elder Jiuqu from Sherie’s faction urging him.

They were insisting he activate the grand formation immediately.

He rubbed the jade talisman, hesitating.

"Sect Master, the grand formation consumes a tremendous amount of energy, and if we don’t activate it precisely, our final energy reserves might be insufficient. Compared to Sherie, Jiu Se’s previous stance was ambiguous... I believe it’s best to activate the formation as soon as possible."

Shen Lue Heavenly Venerable’s avatar reminded in a deep voice.

He never had a favorable impression of Jiu Se Divine Lord, but he had a pretty good relationship with several individuals in the Nether Realm, naturally supporting Sherie’s judgment.

"Shen Lue, I disagree." The Beautiful Celestial Venerable shook her head. "Although Sherie is closer to our main sect, in such a critical matter as the great disaster, his grasp and depth of understanding are far inferior to Jiu Se Divine Lord’s. The foundation of the previous Buddha Ancestor’s reincarnation is far deeper than what can be achieved in such a short time afterward."

She paused.

"It’s highly likely that even Sherie has miscalculated the exact time of the great disaster. I suggest following Jiu Se Divine Lord’s arrangement and also reminding Sherie. If we activate the grand formation early and waste energy, the aftermath will be hard to handle."

These two individuals represented completely opposite opinions. The Universal Heavenly Venerable truly hesitated inside.

But as the Acting Sect Master, such a major issue ultimately required his decision.

Recalling the foundation and background of the two Divine Lords and the reminder left by the Taoist Ancestor before departing, he pondered for a moment, frowning.

Finally, he made a decision.

"The grand formation requires half a day to fully activate.

Considering all factors, I decide to initiate the grand formation at five o’clock in the afternoon the day after tomorrow."

His words were immediately transmitted through the jade talisman to the six current heads of Green Lake Mountain.

The Beautiful Celestial Venerable and Shen Lue Heavenly Venerable could only follow his orders.

But Shen Lue Heavenly Venerable still felt uneasy. Before coming here, he had already sent his relatives and disciple family to the Nether Realm under Sherie’s protection, ensuring them high-level residency.

He had no faith in Green Lake Mountain’s defenses.

The more he understood Lin Sherie, the more he admired him.

Such a brilliantly talented individual would not make many mistakes in their judgment during the great disaster.

And considering Sherie’s positive attitude toward Green Lake Mountain, it seemed he would not deliberately cause trouble.

But Jiu Se Divine Lord was different. Deeply entangled with the Buddha Domain, he had received a lot of resources from the main sect but still acted as if it was taken for granted.

Shen Lue could not place his entire fortune on Jiu Se Divine Lord.

"In that case, I will take my leave."

Shen Lue had made up his mind and decided not to say more.

"Junior Brother, please."

Having made his decision, the Universal Heavenly Venerable felt a weight lift from his shoulders.

Shen Lue turned and walked out of the cave, ready to activate his escape skill.

Boom!!!

Suddenly, a loud noise echoed over the main sect of Green Lake Mountain.

Their expressions changed drastically, and they all instantly activated their escape light, flying out of the cave.

Outside the Nameless Cave.

The three of them landed directly on a clearing at the cave’s entrance, looking at the sky.

The previously clear blue sky was now densely covered with gray-white air streams, crazily falling like meteors towards the ground.

"What is this?!"

The Universal Heavenly Venerable shouted in shock.

"Where are the guardians?! What about the sect’s formation?!"

Even though the ultimate formation hadn’t been activated, a common Heavenly Venerable-level attack should be easily repelled by the main sect.

But facing these gray-white air streams, the supposedly powerful grand formation was breached without resistance.

Bam!!

One of the gray-white air streams had already hit the ground.

Distantly, terrified screams could be heard, as well as the panicked roars and cries of numerous divine beast bloodline exotic beasts raised freely within Green Lake Mountain.

"Let’s go see!"

The Universal Heavenly Venerable was anxious but still maintained a calm exterior, transforming into a streak of white escape light, about to fly towards the distance.

Fssst!!

Suddenly, another gray-white air stream shot straight toward him from the sky.

The Universal Heavenly Venerable grimly reached out and drew a semicircle in front of him.

"Heaven and earth as witnesses, Qianyuan Command!"

Buzz!!

A circle of pale yellow spiritual light True Yuan suddenly manifested in front of him.

Though it seemed as fragile as an eggshell, it withstood the gray-white air stream for several moments without breaking.

Even though it didn’t break, the Universal Heavenly Venerable’s face changed dramatically.

He was horrified to discover that resisting this gray-white air stream had consumed one-fifth of his True Yuan!

Who was he?!

One of the top ten Heavenly Venerables recorded in Green Lake Mountain’s history, with extraordinary strength and formidable combat ability.

His True Yuan reserves were several times that of an ordinary Constellation Level Heavenly Venerable.

Yet a mere gray-white air stream had consumed one-fifth of his True Yuan.

Looking up at the overwhelming countless gray-white air streams, the Universal Heavenly Venerable felt a deep chill in his heart.

"This... this is the great disaster?!"

He finally grasped the crucial possibility.

"Activate the grand formation immediately!!!"

He urgently transmitted the command through his jade talisman.

But it was already too late.

Of the ninety-nine responsible points for the grand formation, only less than half responded....

Fssst!!

Suddenly, another gray-white air stream charged toward him. The stunned Universal Heavenly Venerable could only stare blankly at the stream rushing toward him.

"Go!"

Shen Lue urgently pulled him aside, flying rapidly away.

The Universal Heavenly Venerable remained dazed, though.

"The million-year foundation of Green Lake Mountain... gone... all gone!!"

He didn’t know how to face his teacher or the other Taoist Ancestor ministers.

They had trusted him so much, giving him the massive responsibility of managing the main sect.

This was the result.
