Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The demise of the only divine emperor was akin to the heavens collapsing for the Gong family.

The eyes of the remaining powerful figures all looked at Shen Changqing, filled with terror.

The Palace Saint Orchid is dead.

>

Who can stop the Red Mountain City Lord next

Although the Palace family is an ancient and esteemed clan, much of their internal strength was lost when powerful figures like Palace Yutian perished in the ancient world.

When the ancient world perished, countless things vanished without a trace in the chaos of spatial currents.

So.

The true foundation that the imperial family left behind is actually not much.

Now.

All methods that could normally slay a common Divine Emperor were used, yet none could threaten Shen Changqing. The despair in the hearts of the cultivators from the Palace family was evident.

Looking at the continuously falling palace family disciples, Gong Yang's face changed drastically. Then he looked at Shen Changqing, and all the anger on his face disappeared, his expression becoming extremely humble.

“The Palace family is willing to submit to Hongshan City and hopes that the city lord will give the Palace family a way out!”

“If your palace family was willing to submit at the beginning, this seat would not have been unable to give you a chance, but now, the destruction of your palace family is a foregone conclusion, and no one can change it!”

“No—”

Gong Yang's heart skipped a beat, just as he was about to speak, Shen Changqing struck with a palm, instantly silencing the words he had prepared.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Facing this palm strike, Gong Yang used all his strength to defend.

But it's a pity.

There is a huge gap in their strength.

With a single palm strike, Gong Yang's body was instantly shattered into five pieces, his form and spirit completely extinguished.

Slay Gongyang.

Shen Changqing once again made a move, killing the other palace family experts.

As he just said, if the Gong family had submitted at the beginning, they would have still had a chance to live.

But now.

There is no turning back.

This battle.

Many palace family cultivators have fallen. Even if the palace family's true self outwardly submits, it will eventually become a hidden threat.

If there is a chance.

The palace family will definitely avenge today's blood feud.

To eradicate the root of the problem, that's always been Shen Changqing's way of doing things. Therefore, the Gong family was destined for annihilation.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

After all the palace masters were slain, Shen Changqing joined the battlefield and began slaughtering other cultivators from the palace families.

The blood banner trembled.

A thick black mist spread throughout the sky.

A legion of spectral deities roared and shrieked, charging towards the cultivators of the Palace Clan.

Before the divine spirit's ghost, the cultivators of the Gong family had no way to fight back. They were easily swallowed by the ghost, and a large amount of pure soul power poured into the blood banner, giving birth to even more ghosts.

It originally meant...

The Blood Banner suffered losses of souls during battles against other Divine Lords, but now, by using cultivators from other palace families as nourishment, it is actually repairing the original damage.

"The imperial family is finished!"

“After this battle, Hongshan City will surely be the foremost power in the ancient wasteland!”

The other cultivators who secretly watched this scene all felt a chill in their hearts.

Anyone who is not stupid can see that the Imperial Palace family is finished.

The Holy Orchid has fallen.

All deities and above powerhouses have perished.

Even if the forces in Hongshan City stopped here, other powers would not miss the opportunity to annex the Palace family.

Moreover.

Hongshan City was clearly determined to exterminate them.

After this battle, the Guhuang clan was destined to cease to exist.

Hongshan City will usurp the former imperial clan's position and become the true overlord of Guhuang.

Although Hongshan City doesn't have a God Emperor in residence, no one would deny Shen Changqing's strength.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

If the killings of Ji Yan and Tian Yu Shenhuang before had not been witnessed by many cultivators, then the battle between the Gong family and Gong Shenglan's fall was seen with their own eyes by all the strong.

From beginning to end.

All of the palace beauties had no room to fight back.

Shen Changqing's Emperor Divine Talisman seemed endless, which also indirectly confirmed that the other party was a fourth-rank talisman master.

A master of the Fourth Order Rune Dao exerts power that surpasses a divine emperor of the same rank by a considerable margin. In terms of overall combat strength, they are hardly inferior to a divine emperor of the same level.

With such a powerful figure at the helm, the rise of Hongshan City goes without saying.

Less than half a day.

With the last of the Palace Family cultivators falling.

In the vast city, only the cultivators of Hongshan City remained.

"Your Honor, all the cultivators from the Imperial Clans have been exterminated!"

Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!

A middle-aged priest arrived before Shen Changqing, his body still exuding a strong aura of iron and blood. His square face bore an expression of reverence.

Shen Changqing recognized the other party's identity.

Zongxiang.

A deputy commander of the Hongshan Army.

It is rumored that the other party was once a general of a dynasty. After the dynasty's downfall, they broke out of the encirclement under heavy siege and became an independent cultivator. Later, by chance, they joined Hongshan City and rose from an ordinary cultivator to their current position as deputy commander.

Aspect of cultivation

Zongxiang was also not weak, he was a cultivator at the peak of the Divine Lord.

Among the entire Hongshan City, there weren't many cultivators at the peak of the divine master realm, so Shen Changqing had a good impression of Zongxiang.

"You've done well. Now, arrange for the cultivators to be stationed throughout the city, awaiting my orders. Afterward, lead another portion of the cultivators to the Lingyan Sect and inform Zi Hua that after eradicating the remnants of the Gong Family, he should directly attack the Lingyan Sect!"

“My subordinate obeys!”

>

"This is the Blood Banner. It contains a strand of my divine consciousness. When you need it, simply pour your power into it to activate my divine consciousness and use this treasure."

The Blood Banner contains twenty thousand divine generals' spirits. Below the Divine Emperor, no cultivator can be your opponent!

Shen Changqing took out the blood banner and handed it to Zong Xiang.

After killing all the cultivators of the Palace family, not only had the Godly Souls that were originally depleted been replenished, but their number had also increased by two thousand.

The souls of twenty thousand deities empowered the Blood Banner, taking its power to a whole new level.

Looking at the blood banner before him, Zongxiang felt the terrifyingly cold aura emanating from it, and his expression was filled with excitement.

"Rest assured, Lord Mayor, your subordinate will not disappoint you!"

With such a precious gift bestowed, Zong Xiang could understand Shen Changqing's emphasis.

Even though he doesn't truly possess the Blood Flag of Refinement now, merely having the right to use it speaks volumes.

After all.

Among all the deputy commanders in Red Mountain City, why did I specifically receive the Blood Banner

"Go!"

Shen Changqing ignored Zong Xiang's thoughts, waved him away, and then tore through the void, going directly to Xuanming Sect.

According to the initial plan, Shen Changqing was going to have Duanjing try to persuade two cultivators to betray the Gong family, thus easing their own pressure.

But.

Shen Changqing found that he had overestimated the Gong family.

While ancient clans do possess some foundation, they are nothing special. Without revealing their true strength, they can easily resolve issues with the Gong family.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

That's it.

With the disappearance of both the Xuan Ming Ling Yan and the Liang Zong, there's really no point in them continuing to exist.

>

The Spiritflame Sect has the Yin-Yang Holy Land to deal with, and the strength of the Yin-Yang Saint Master is something Shen Changqing believes in. Dealing with some remnants of the Palace families would not be a problem.

But the Xuanming Sect is a different story.

Although Shen Changqing gave a portion of the talismans to Duan Jing, the latter was just a newly ascended Divine Lord. Whether he could deal with the Gong family was still a question.

As soon as he stepped onto the territory of Xuanming Sect, he saw a blood-red celestial river spanning the void, protecting the vast Xuanming Sect within. Outside the blood-red celestial river, Duan Jing led the cultivators of Hongshan City, engaged in a fierce battle with the strong from the Gong family.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Though outnumbered seven to one, the man relying on the power of his talismans held his own against the cultivators from the Palace Family.

However.

These are all temporary.

Once the boundary markers run out, even a cultivator at the Divine Monarch first level would inevitably lose.

Shen Changqing looked in the direction of Xuanming Sect. The fact that this sect remained motionless made their intentions crystal clear.

"Watching the tigers fight from atop the mountain, it seems that the Xuanming Sect also wants to see Hongshan City and the Palace Family destroy each other, then reap the benefits. Unfortunately, the Xuanming Sect has overestimated the Palace Family and underestimated Hongshan City..."

Shen Changqing's eyes became indifferent.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The current silence of the Xuanming Sect can be seen as a choice.

Then.

Shen Changqing's steps stepped out, the void shattered, and he appeared directly on the battlefield.

A sudden change of events startled both sides in the midst of battle.

This is a test.

"Lord Mayor!"

His eyes lit up with joy.

Shen Changqing's appearance here finally put his heart at ease.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

As Shen Changqing had thought, Duan Jing now had few talismans left in his hand. Before the talismans were depleted, he had to evacuate, otherwise, he would surely perish here.

That is all.

> It's a helpless situation.

He originally wanted to secretly break through the Miyaji blockade and get in touch with Xuanming Sect, but he didn't expect that Xuanming Sect's protective formation would be so domineering. Blocked by the river of blood, he couldn't get close at all.

Moreover, the whereabouts of other cultivators in this line were also carelessly leaked. Thus, the great war erupted immediately.

The only consolation is.

He carried many talismans on his person, which allowed him to survive this long.

Otherwise.

He had already fallen here.

"Hongshan!"

Upon seeing Shen Changqing arrive, the Palace family was on high alert, with Palace Yuan's eyes filled with solemnity.

The Palace Saint Orchid has fallen.

The Qi of the imperial family is shifting.

As a divine sovereign of the palace family, he could sense something was amiss. However, since this wasn't the residence of the palace family, Gong Yuan didn't learn much about it.

But.

With Shen Changqing's one word, even the faces of powerful figures like Gong Yuan changed dramatically.

"With the fall of Palace Sacred Orchid, your Palace family's land has already been destroyed. Why do you still resist"

"Impossible, my Gong family has a divine emperor guarding it, how could it be destroyed..."

The palace master, Gong Jia Shen Jun, roared angrily, completely disbelieving Shen Changqing's words.

But just as his words fell, Shen Changqing slapped out with a palm, before the other party could react, he struck with a single blow, instantly killing him.

Such a change.

This caused Gong Yuan and the remaining deities to be greatly shaken in their minds.

Shen Changqing's expression was indifferent, his aura pressing down on the heavens and earth. People like Gong Yuan had unsightly faces, but he didn't pay any attention to them.

“Whether you believe it or not is unimportant. Since I have arrived, you are destined to perish here. Leave these Palace Family Gods to me; you attend to the other cultivators.”

>In the end, Shen Changqing spoke to Duan Jing who was beside him.

The latter, upon hearing this, immediately took his orders and withdrew, charging towards the other battlefields..He was very curious to know, if left to grow unchecked, where Shen Changqing would ultimately end up.Perhaps.Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!It's not necessarily tha...
