Rainbow-colored clouds in the air above the high plains situated on the border of the Heavenly River State and the Stone Dragon State.

A spatial gate emitting a white light was gradually beginning to dim as if it was going to collapse at any second.

The leader of the Hall of Seven Sins, Xu Tong, as well as the deputy leader, Xu Yongnan, stood together with their hands clasped behind them.

Behind them were twenty of their most powerful disciples.

The Hall of Seven Sins was one of the middling sects of the Tarim High Plains. Xu Tong led this group of their most powerful cultivators after some disciples reported sightings of suddenly-occurring natural phenomena in the area two days ago.

These natural phenomena indicated the appearance of extraordinary treasures which could impact the whole of the continent. If the Hall of Seven Sins could get their hands on these extraordinary treasures, it could be an opportunity for them to become one of the top sects in the region.

Although they couldn’t enter the spatial gate themselves, they could just wait for those who had obtained the treasures to come out before ambushing them.

At this moment, the spatial gate flashed with light, and an elderly man with white hair and a white beard appeared in front of their eyes.

The elderly man scanned the Hall of Seven Sins clique and didn’t even utter a single word before flying away into the air. For someone like him who had lived for tens of thousands of years, he simply couldn’t be bothered talking to youngsters.

“Big Brother… that was another mighty figure who I couldn’t even detect the cultivation base of. It looks like the cultivators that had entered this mystic realm aren’t gonna be easy to deal with…” Xu Yongnan wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead and spoke uneasily.

Xu Yongnan and Xu Tong were both Soul Formation Initial Stage cultivators. They were already considered to be quite powerful in the Kingdom of the Nine States, but during the time in which they were waiting outside the spatial gate, they saw many mighty figures with unfathomable cultivation bases emerge in succession. These mighty figures were extremely arrogant, and all of them left without even a second glance at them.

It felt to him like all the cultivators that had entered this mystic realm were extremely powerful and not to be messed with.

Xu Tong was also feeling a little conflicted, but after a while, a determined expression appeared on his face. “What’s wrong with just standing here to appreciate the scenery? This land belongs to the Hall of Seven Sins anyway, who can stop us from wandering around in our own territory? If the cultivators that come out are weaker than us, we’ll slaughter them, and if they’re stronger, then we’ll just pretend we’re looking at the scenery…”

Xu Yongnan knew that Xu Tong had made up his mind, so there was no point in any further persuasion.

Boom!

A burst of commotion burst forth from the spatial gate once again as a black brick flew out from within.

There were a man and a woman standing atop the brick, along with a monkey and a dog.

The spatial gate completely collapsed soon after their exit and crumbled into specks of light.

*This is the last group of cultivators! *Xu Yongnan and Xu Yongnan both tensed up involuntarily.

“A cultivator of Spirit Nurturing Initial Stage, a dog of Spirit Nurturing Intermediate Stage, a cultivator of Spirit Nurturing Final Stage, and a Half-Step Soul Formation Stage monkey… They’re all so weak…” Xu Yongnan had initially thought that there would at least be a Soul Formation Stage cultivator leading their group and did not expect them to all be below Soul Formation Stage cultivation base. Xu Yongnan was already itching to spring into action.

A cruel smile appeared on Xu Tong’s face. “It looks like the Gods are looking down upon the Hall of Seven Sins. Everyone, activate the Seven Sins Spell Formation! We’ll kill them on the spot!”

An Lin and the others had just exited the spatial gate on his black brick and did not even have a chance to bask under the sunlight before they were suddenly enshrouded under a massive spell formation.

Within the spell formation, countless flying swords flew through the air, thick vines entangled heaven and earth, a series of glacial spikes hung in the air, and the roars of flaming dragons erupted from the ground. On top of that, sand and stones flew through the air in a lethal storm while the winds swept through the air like scathing blades as lightning crackled in the sky.

A group of cultivators clad in black robes began to appear in the spell formation.

Xu Tong joined his hands in salute and laughed heartily. “Greetings, I’m the leader of the Hall of Seven Sins, Xu Tong. I’m here to offer my congratulations to you on successfully obtaining the treasures of the mystic realm. Now, I must ask you to hand those treasures over to me.”

An Lin’s lips twitched. F*ck, they had just made it out of the spatial gate and were already being robbed!

He replied in a cold voice, “What if we don’t hand it over?”

Xu Yongnan laughed scornfully. “We’ll give you a quick and painless death if you oblige. Otherwise, you’ll be tortured in the Seven Sins Spell Formation until you wish you were dead!”

“Oh? Murder and robbery, eh?”

An Lin was a little excited. He had finally encountered something like this after cultivating for so long.

Da Bai also spoke at this moment, “Big Brother An, the Hall of Seven Sins is a middling sect in the Stone Dragon State. They are a subordinate sect to the Great Holy Demon Sect! These guys are always committing murder and robbery but they’ve always been very secretive with their operations, so they’ve never been successfully tracked down and annihilated!”

Da Bai’s Mythological Beast Sect was situated in the Stone Dragon State, so he was quite familiar with the sects within the Stone Dragon State.

“Haha, who’d have thought this dog would be so knowledgeable. But so what if you know all about it? You’re trapped in the Seven Sins Spell Formation already, surrender and we’ll grant you a quick death!” Xu Tong spoke with a cocky expression.

The Seven Sins Spell Formation was extremely powerful. It was even able to slaughter Soul Formation Stage. There wasn’t even one Soul Formation Stage cultivator in their ranks, how were they supposed to survive?

A nostalgic expression appeared on Xu Xiaolan’s face as she looked around at the spell formation around them. “This scene is so reminiscent of the time when Shen Yin was ambushed, maybe my knight in shining armor will appear here too!”

An Lin’s heart surged at her words, and he took a step forward. “Don’t worry, Xiaolan. There’s no need for you to battle, I shall exterminate all our enemies here!”

Xu Xiaolan stared in a daze at the man in front of her as a warm feeling filled her heart.

Indeed, wasn’t he her knight in shining armor?

“The Hall of Seven Sins is an evil sect, there’s no need to hold back.”

“They’re always committing murder and robbery, so their storage rings must be stacked… Let’s make a pact now. You can keep any storage ring you can get your hands on, I won’t accept any words of objection…” An Lin licked his lips while wearing a bright frenzied gaze.

Xiao Chou and Da Bai were also staring at the cultivators from the Hall of Seven Sins as if there was a huge feast laid out in front of them.

For f*ck’s sake! They didn’t get jacksh*t from the Winter Dragon Tomb, how could they not be pissed off?

Perhaps the Gods were taking pity upon them and delivered a bunch of criminal cultivators for them to slaughter.

“Hehehe…”

The three of them all began to cackle wickedly.

Xu Xiaolan rubbed her brows in distress as her chest tightened.

It looked like she had celebrated too early; An Lin did not seem to match her image of a knight in shining armor after all…

A chill ran down Xu Yongnan’s spine as he looked at An Lin and the others. “Big Brother, why do I feel like we’re the prey being hunted here…”

Xu Tong’s heart also shuddered slightly at the sight of their gruesome expressions, but he still activated the Seven Sins Spell Formation while wearing a ruthless look in his eyes. “A group of Spirit Nurturing Stage trash can’t do anything. They’re just bluffing to try and save their hides. I’ll crush them with our spell formation right now!”

The Seven Sins Spell Formation was set into motion following Xu Tong’s ruthless roar.

Insane powerful energy erupted forth and crashed down upon An Lin and the others with almighty force.

In the face of such a fearsome attack, An Lin’s eyes turned white as snow as he flicked his Realm-Piercing Nail into a certain point in the air.

If An Lin was to use his energy alone, it would most likely be shredded by the devastating attack that was launched at them before it even had a chance to break the spell formation. However, the Realm-Piercing Nail was an immortal tool that was close to indestructible, so there would be no similar issue. The Realm-Piercing Nail stabbed through the air like a crimson streak of light, piercing through a storm of wind blades and running through the body of a flaming dragon before striking a certain spot in the air.

Under the shocked gazes of Xu Yongnan and Xu Tong, the Seven Sins Spell Formation collapsed like a sandcastle under a tsunami.

“Let’s go!”

An Lin, Da Bai, and Xiao Chou pounced upon the Hall of Seven Sins cultivators like hungry wolves, creating a nightmarish image that was etched deeply into their minds.
