Chapter 4886: Chaos

On the Asura Continent, within a secluded estate, Abisha and Mantog were seated in a cyan stone pavilion, conversing.

"The Azure Lotus Immortals annihilated the Skyfiend Clan before they could even escape," Abisha said with a gloomy expression. They had almost forgotten about the Wang family's existence, yet the Wang family dared to provoke them.

"Carol mastered five Supreme Daos and possessed a complete set of Heavenly Dao Divine Artifacts, yet he was no match. This indicates that the Azure Lotus Immortals have mastered at least five Supreme Daos, and possibly even six," Mantog said, frowning. If they had known this earlier, they would have gone to the Sea of Return Ruins at all costs to eliminate the Azure Lotus Immortals and flatten the entire Immortal Realm.

"It's too late for regrets now. We can only ask the Grand Elder to deal with them," Abisha analyzed. "First, we must find them. Once found, they won't be able to escape."

"The Chaos Realm is vast. Finding the Azure Lotus Immortals with just our strength won't be easy. We can't just go provoke the Divine Clan, can we?" Mantog said, looking troubled. Just finding the Azure Lotus Immortals was a thorny issue. Even if they found them, ordinary Dao Masters were powerless against them. Confronting the Divine Clan was also unrealistic; the Asura Clan wouldn't clash with them without immense benefits.

"If the Demonic Clan and the Primal Chaos Clan also join in, then there will be no problem," Abisha said deeply.

"Why would they be so kind as to help us deal with the Azure Lotus Immortals? We aren't allies with them; it would be good if they didn't actively hinder us," Mantog questioned.

"If their subordinate clans were also wiped out, wouldn't that imply the Divine Clan is declaring war on our three clans?" Abisha said with a half-smile.

"The high-ranking members of the Demonic Clan and Primal Chaos Clan aren't that foolish, are they? Unless the Azure Lotus Immortals personally take action against them," Mantog replied.

"The Azure Lotus Immortals don't need to act personally. If human forces deal with their subordinate factions, that will suffice," Abisha said. If the Asura Clan was having a hard time, the other three clans shouldn't expect an easy time either. The Asura Clan sending people to destroy the subordinate clans of the Demonic Clan and Primal Chaos Clan and framing the Divine Clan wouldn't work; the high-ranking members of the Demonic Clan and Primal Chaos Clan weren't that foolish.

"Human forces have always been close to the Divine Clan; they won't obey our orders!" Mantog said, frowning.

"There are so many human forces. Those who listen to us will live; those who don't will die. First, we'll stir up trouble. We still need to send people to search for the Azure Lotus Immortals. We'll select Dao Masters from within the clan to personally go to the Sea of Return Ruins and absolutely find the Immortal Realm. A monk can run, but his temple cannot. As long as the Immortal Realm exists, its inhabitants can't escape; we will eliminate all of them. Also, instruct the clan's diviners to try to deduce the whereabouts of Dao Master Taihao. Once found, he must be killed," Abisha suggested.

"Excellent. A three-pronged approach. Let's do it," Mantog agreed wholeheartedly.

In the Xuantian Immortal Domain, on Xuantian Immortal Island, within a secluded estate, Wang Changsheng, Wang Ruyan, and Wang Qingfeng were seated in a cyan stone pavilion, sipping tea and chatting.

Wang Changsheng, Wang Ruyan, and Ye Haitang annihilated the Skyfiend Clan, acquiring many resources, including an Enlightenment Stele. Ye Haitang escorted the stele and a portion of the resources back to the Immortal Realm. With this Enlightenment Stele, Wang Qingcheng and others could comprehend the Great Dao much more efficiently. This way, Dao Masters in both the Chaos Realm and the Immortal Realm would have an Enlightenment Stele to aid their comprehension. For Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan, however, the Enlightenment Stele no longer held much significance; they were seeking the origins of the Dao of Time and the Dao of Reincarnation.

"With the Skyfiend Clan destroyed, the Asura Clan definitely won't let it go," Wang Qingfeng stated.

"Haitang has already escorted the Enlightenment Stele back to the Immortal Realm. Even if a Dao Master from the Asura Clan attacks, it won't be easy to break through, especially since they have mastered three Supreme Daos and the Dao formations," Wang Changsheng said. "We won't just stop at annihilating the Skyfiend Clan; we'll continue to trouble the Asura Clan, keeping them too occupied to send people to search for the Immortal Realm."

Wang Qingfeng took out a small mirror, flashing red, and cast a spell into it. Wang Chuanming's face appeared on the mirror's surface.

"Ancestor Qingfeng," Wang Chuanming said solemnly, "the subordinate clans of the Demonic Clan and the Primal Chaos Clan have been attacked by human forces. Rumors outside claim that someone is using the Divine Clan's banner to incite a major war among the Chaos Realm's four great clans."

"Why would human forces suddenly attack the subordinate clans of the Demonic Clan and Primal Chaos Clan for no reason? Is there an explanation?" Wang Qingfeng asked.

"They claim it's in response to the Azure Lotus Immortals' call, to avenge the deceased human cultivators. This excuse is clearly meant to cause trouble for our ancestors; it's most likely concocted by the Asura Clan," Wang Chuanming replied.

"The Asura Clan is trying to make us mortal enemies of the three great clans! Humph, what a pipe dream," Wang Changsheng sneered.

"It seems annihilating the Skyfiend Clan didn't hurt them enough. Then we'll act again, show them what we're capable of, and let the Demonic Clan and Primal Chaos Clan see if they can withstand our retaliation if they try to deal with us," Wang Ruyan said, her face filled with killing intent.

If they didn't take action, the Demonic Clan and Primal Chaos Clan might also set their sights on them. Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan weren't foolish enough to offend the three great clans. It wasn't that they dared not, but there was no need at the moment. If they had mastered six Supreme Daos, it would be a different story. Everything stemmed from insufficient strength. If their power were great enough, the Human Clan would be the foremost clan in the Chaos Realm.

"First, let's contact the Divine Clan and give them a heads-up," Wang Changsheng said. "An extra ally is always good. Even if they don't directly intervene, their public statement could help us avoid a lot of trouble."

Wang Qingfeng quickly contacted Ji Lei. Soon, Ji Lei's face appeared on the mirror. He handed the red mirror to Wang Changsheng, who began, "Fellow Daoist Ji, we merely annihilated the Skyfiend Clan, and the Asura Clan is reacting so strongly."

"That's not surprising. They've already implicated both you and our Divine Clan," Ji Lei said. "The high-ranking members of the Demonic Clan and Primal Chaos Clan don't want to get involved, but if things escalate, it will be hard to resolve."

"Fellow Daoist Ji, what is the Divine Clan's stance?" Wang Changsheng asked.

"The Asura Clan has always been at odds with our Divine Clan. Anyone who targets the Asura Clan is an enemy of ours," Ji Lei warned. "However, you must be careful. The Asura Clan's Grand Elder is not to be trifled with. If you encounter him, run as far as you can. His innate Heavenly Dao Divine Artifact has been refined with a Primordial Dao Stone."

"Understood, we will be extra careful," Wang Changsheng replied. "But by doing this, is the Asura Clan trying to spark a full-scale war?"

"Who knows? If they want to fight, we'll oblige. Who's afraid of whom?" Ji Lei said meaningfully. "If the Asura Clan suffers heavy losses, I believe the Demonic Clan and the Primal Chaos Clan would be quite happy to deal with them."

"Perhaps," Wang Changsheng said with a faint smile.

After a brief chat, Wang Changsheng ended the connection. "It seems we need to teach the Asura Clan a severe lesson, or they will continue to bother us."

"That won't be difficult. Just kill a few of the Asura Clan's Dao Masters," Wang Ruyan said calmly, as if discussing a trivial matter. They now possessed the strength to retreat safely, even if they couldn't defeat a Supreme master who had mastered six Supreme Daos.

"Let's make another trip," Wang Changsheng instructed. "Qingfeng, you continue gathering intelligence and keep an eye on the Asura Clan's situation."

They changed their appearance and left Xuantian Immortal Island.
