An old man coldly snorted with disdain, "You don't know, during the last appearance of the Loyalty Gate, all the Major Powers gathered and fought fiercely. If the person in charge of the Crimson Fire Family doesn't arrive in time this time, the two major sects will naturally take the initiative, breaking the balance among all parties. This situation has occurred multiple times; you can't possibly think that those big clans and families can endure it." 0
 
"The senior speaks too harshly. The Major Powers engage in conflicts every day, but they are all controllable. Moreover, during the last opening of Luolie Mountain, the major sects did not obtain any great treasures, so there wouldn't be any significant disputes." 0
 
They exchanged arguments back and forth, drawing more Disciples into the discussion. Whether it would lead to turmoil in the Dragon Python Celestial Domain was a matter of half and half. It seemed everyone was worried that the Dragon Python Celestial Domain would truly descend into chaos. 0
 
Guan Yue fell into deep thought after hearing this. How could it be beneficial for people like them? It must be when the world is in chaos! Only in chaos is there opportunity; only in chaos is there room for advancement! When chaos reigns, there is a chance to establish one's own power! 0
 
Some cautious Disciples were trying to gather specific information about this Heavenly Treasure. However, from everyone's statements, they knew very little because, so far, the Crimson Fire Family had tightly sealed off more information from leaking out. They had mobilized all their forces residing in the Ocean Harmony Empire to this desolate land and had imposed strict blockades on certain areas. 0
 
On the second day after Guan Yue and Fang West arrived at the desert area, a Giant Warship indeed flew in. There were fewer than ten such Giant Warships in the Dragon Python Celestial Domain, all under the control of the two major sects. Only the sect masters could directly command and deploy them. 0
 
The arrival of this Giant Warship confirmed that the intelligence was completely accurate; the Deputy Sect Master of Nanyue Sect had arrived first, and many Disciples witnessed the coming of the Giant Warship. Guan Yue and Fang West also saw it. 0
 
Guan Yue felt extremely envious; how wonderful it would be if he could have such a Giant Warship! 0
 
After arriving, the Deputy Sect Master of Nanyue Sect immediately entered a deep discussion to understand the situation. The Crimson Fire Family did not dare to defy his orders but refused to provide him with details; everything needed to be assessed by him personally. However, after examining for a while in deep discussion, the Deputy Sect Master of Nanyue Sect hurriedly turned to leave and then issued an order that all Profound Heaven Realm experts from Nanyue Sect on Dopolaran Continent must gather here without fail! 0
 
Once this order from Nanyue Sect was issued, it immediately caused more ripples. 0
 
"There must be Heavenly Treasure here; there's no doubt about it." 0
 
While eating, Guan Yue and Fang West overheard everyone discussing animatedly again. 0
 
 
"Isn't there about a hundred experts from the Nanyue Sect on the Dopolaran Continent? Why have they all come here? Last time when the Luo Lie Gate opened, only the Holy Son and the Saintess from the two major sects came, right? Why is there such a huge commotion this time?" The Disciple's words were also what Guan Yue wanted to know. 0
 
"Brother, you don't know as much as I do. The Luo Lie Gate has been opened countless times. Each Major Power has fought hard and come to the conclusion that it's purely based on luck; strength alone won't help at all, or else it would just be self-inflicted suffering. So, reluctantly, they sent the Holy Son and the Saintess to try their luck. But this time, with the appearance of Heavenly Treasure, it's different; seizing things relies on strength! Moreover, there might be monsters appearing beneath the Deep Pool, so unpredictable losses must be considered. In short, it's still that saying: whoever has the bigger fist gets to decide and can reap the greatest benefits." 0
 
Guan Yue deeply agreed with this Disciple's explanation. What he needed to know now was whether the Nanshan Sect had issued a gathering order today. If they hadn't issued one today, then they wouldn't attack the Deep Pool tomorrow. This was very important for Guan Yue. 0
 
Because he needed to set up his formation in advance! 0
 
After various inquiries, Guan Yue learned that the Nanshan Sect had not issued a gathering order, and he breathed a sigh of relief. However, while discussing this matter with Fang West in Sky Peak Tower, they were overheard by two Primordial Infants who began to strategize for Guan Yue. He felt their wisdom was even comparable to Fang West! 0
 
After four of them researched together, they further improved their plan. 0
 
The next day, another Giant Warship flew into the desert area; the Deputy Sect Master of Nanshan Sect finally arrived late. He also entered the Deep Pool Area but stayed longer before leaving. Of course, he issued a gathering order similar to that of Nanyue Sect but with different wording: all Profound Heaven Realm Disciples belonging to Nanshan Sect's influence must arrive within a day; otherwise, severe punishment would follow. 0
 
Goodness! There must be at least several hundred Xuantian Realm Cultivators belonging to Nanshan Sect who could arrive within a day! What is going on? Are they going to go to war with Nanyue Sect? 0
 
Various Battleships and flying ships continued to appear daily, with representatives from various major factions and families arriving one after another. Most of those who appeared were Lords or clan leaders. 0
 
Now, the key variable was that the leader of the Crimson Fire Family had yet to show up! 0
 
Guan Yue had been busy these past few days causing destruction; he had continuously sabotaged several locations capable of stopping Giant Warships, leaving only two places intact. At both locations, he set up large devouring formations. 0
 
At the same time, Guan Yue utilized the Invisibility Technique to enter the Deep Pool Area in advance, estimating where everyone could stand and setting up extremely powerful killing formations in several places. He even simulated Nanshan Sect's formation characteristics in an attempt to frame them. Now Guan Yue was determined to stir up a storm in the Dragon Python Celestial Domain! 0
 
 
Of course, his main targets are still the Nanshan Sect, Nanyue Sect, Tai Shun Pavilion, Tai Dou Pavilion, Leap Ridge Pavilion, and the Ocean Harmony Empire. He would never harm the innocent. 0
 
Now, the emergence of the Heavenly Treasure is a perfect opportunity. On one hand, they are fighting for it in the front, while on the other hand, they will also face an attack from Guan Yue at the rear! 0
 
Preparations from all sides are ready. However, the higher-ups of the Crimson Fire Family have yet to arrive. 0
 
The Nanshan Sect and Nanyue Sect pressured the Crimson Fire Family to immediately open the Deep Pool Area; otherwise, they would force their way in without leaving any benefits for the Crimson Fire Family. 0
 
The on-site leader of the Crimson Fire Family was furious. This is their discovered Celestial Repository; why should the Nanshan Sect and Nanyue Sect command them to open it? Moreover, without instructions from their family, they dare not open it! They are also a large family with thousands of years of heritage; they are not soft persimmons to be squeezed at will! 0
 
Seeing that the on-site leader of the Crimson Fire Family was unwilling to open the Deep Pool Area, the Nanshan Sect and Nanyue Sect completely cleared out the area, driving all other factions out and leaving only members of the Nanshan Sect and Nanyue Sect. They then demanded that these two Major Powers enter the Deep Pool together with the Crimson Fire Family. 0
 
This action by the two sects provoked strong opposition from other Major Powers. Other forces had their Lords and clan leaders present. The Nanshan Sect and Nanyue Sect were clearly disrespecting them, leading to great outrage. The Six Great Halls and Seven Great Families began to seal off the area, prohibiting disciples from entering. Their personnel were also subjected to searches. 0
 
Suddenly, two major groups appeared, tensions high and crises potentially erupting at any moment! Meanwhile, in the Deep Pool Area, the Crimson Fire Family was locked in a standoff with the two sects, with conflict imminent! 0
 
At this moment, the entire desert had become a powder keg. Guan Yue was about to make his move when suddenly, the leader of the Crimson Fire Family arrived. As several battleships from the Crimson Fire Family flew into the desert area, both the Seven Great Families and Six Great Halls approached to confront him, demanding access to the Deep Pool so that everyone could enter together and secure their destinies. 0
 
Reluctantly supporting his presence at the scene for his family's future considerations, the leader of the Crimson Fire Family agreed to let them enter the Deep Pool together. The tense atmosphere immediately eased. 0
 
Guan Yue felt immense disappointment! What a rare opportunity it was, now lost! 0
 
Guan Yue looked at various battleships and airships docked in the desert area belonging to different Major Powers with great envy; he was deeply intrigued. However, most Major Powers had left many powerful disciples behind to guard their battleships and airships. Therefore, it was not a suitable time to take action. 0
 
 
Guan Yue and Fang West stealthily entered the Deep Pool. Naturally, they did not dare to approach the Nanshan Sect's Disciples, as the Nanshan Sect possessed a unique skill that allowed them to see hidden Disciples. However, only the Senior Cultivators of the Nanshan Sect had access to such skills; ordinary Disciples did not have this ability. 0
 
With the arrival of the Crimson Fire Family's patriarch, the two major sects, Six Great Halls, and Eight Great Families all gathered at the edge of the Deep Pool. Since everyone was looking to gain some benefits, the two sects naturally would not let this opportunity slip by. In the end, the first batch of Disciples entering the Deep Pool consisted of twenty Xuantian Realm Cultivators from each faction, forming an advance team to explore the depths of the pool. 0
 
These three hundred twenty Xuantian Realm Cultivators entered the Deep Pool together. 0
 
They all sensed a strong desolate aura within the Deep Pool, which filled them with dread. Cautiously, they proceeded forward at a very slow pace. 0
 
After passing through a waterlogged area, they found themselves in a barren expanse where they surprisingly saw a layer of mist. The presence of mist beneath the water puzzled them greatly. 0
 
Here, the desolate aura intensified. Suddenly, amidst the thick mist, the leading Disciples began to vanish one by one. The Disciples behind shouted out in alarm, but there was no response from those who had disappeared. Panic set in among the Disciples; some of the more timid ones kept calling out the names of their missing companions and dared not move forward any longer. 0
 
As nearly a hundred Disciples had vanished one after another, those at the back halted their advance as well, looking around in confusion for any clues. 0
 
However, even after they stopped, individuals continued to disappear one by one. Once someone vanished, they could no longer be called back. 0
 
The fear among the Disciples finally erupted. They immediately began to fly backward together. Yet still, they were disappearing one by one. 0
 
There was no sound—only the vanishing of Disciples and the swirling mist. 0
 
In the end, only about thirty Disciples managed to escape. This meant that nearly three hundred Profound Heaven Realm Disciples had vanished without any understanding of what had happened! 0
