Chapter 1146: Chapter 390: The Three Swords of Celestial Master Lei (Four-in-One Chapter)

The result was naturally like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.

At this moment, the Great Unity Fang Clan also encountered a similar misfortune as the Great Tang Jingxiang Fang Clan.

The mystical power of the Fang Clan Ancestral Land in Jiuzhou was not brought to bear; on the contrary, it became the primary target for the concentrated counterattacks during the Ironblood Loyal Spirit Grand Ceremony.

Clan Chief Fang Xi bore the brunt of the impact, seeing stars before his eyes.

His son, Fang Zufeng, was greatly shocked and hurriedly stepped forward to support him: "Father!"

"...It’s nothing." Fang Xi grunted.

He pushed away Fang Zufeng’s assistance: "With the Jiuzhou Pen to protect, I’m alright. You must quickly go and find Yuanfeng."

Speaking at the same time, Fang Xi swiftly bowed to the Fang Clan Ancestral Hall: "Descendant Fang Xi, incompetent, humbly request the activation of the Jiuzhou Pen!"

The Wenhua Qi within the ancestral hall surged, light burst forth and flowed in multiple directions.

An Ink Pen subsequently flew out.

It was the heirloom treasure of the Great Unity Fang Clan, created after this branch of the Fang Clan entered Great Unity, by using the heavenly materials and earthly treasures of Great Unity for diligent sacrificial refining. It was later worshipped through generations, becoming what it is today, bearing a few points of similarity in philosophical artistic conception to the Spring and Autumn Brush of the Great Tang Jingxiang Fang Clan.

Fang Xi, as the current Clan Chief of the Great Unity Fang Clan, was using the power of the Jiuzhou Pen to resist the counterattacks of the Ironblood Loyal Spirit Grand Ceremony and barely stabilize the ancestral land.

However, under the sweeping flames of war, the Great Unity Fang Clan’s ancestral land was still tumultuous, as if the end of days had come.

While Fang Xi wielded the Jiuzhou Pen with effort, Fang Zufeng was hastening towards the inner residence.

Halfway through, a tall, slender man, with an appearance resembling a young adult, approached with a solemn expression.

Seeing this, Fang Zufeng quickly bowed: "Sixteenth Uncle, my father is asking for you to come over!"

The tall and slender youth nodded calmly and hurried to the ancestral hall to join Fang Xi.

"Sixteenth Brother, you unexpectedly come out of seclusion not with stunning triumph but meet with the calamity of our clan—I am truly ashamed!" Fang Xi looked at the tall and slender youth who had come near and sighed deeply.

His name was Fang Xing, styled Yuanfeng.

He was of an older generation within the Great Unity Fang Clan, yet young in age, recently known far and wide as the foremost talent.

The entire Fang Clan pins great hopes on him.

Even the chiefs of other major prestigious families and the kings of the Sixteen Kingdoms in Great Unity, openly or covertly, pay attention to Master Fang of the Fang Family.

For he had reached the Confucian Eighth Heavenly Layer early.

Everyone is speculating when Fang Xing will achieve the Ninth Heavenly Layer All-Under-Heaven Realm.

For the current situation in Great Unity, this will have far-reaching consequences.

The current best fighter in Great Unity and the only Ninth Heavenly Layer fifth-level Perfection realm cultivator is Lin Clan Chief Lin Zheng.

Therefore, in recent years, the Lin Clan has become ever more dominant among the Five Prestiges in Great Unity.

In contrast, Fang Clan Chief Fang Xi and Xiao Clan Chief Xiao Jing are both Great Scholars of Confucian Classical Studies, at the Ninth Heavenly Layer fourth level.

While Han Clan Chief Han Tian and Su Clan Chief Su Guang are stronger at the Ninth Heavenly Layer third level; the latter at the Ninth Heavenly Layer second level.

The Five Great Prestigious Families, exactly corresponding to five Ninth Heavenly Layer Great Scholars.

But now, the Great Unity Fang Clan has secretly nurtured Fang Xing.

One family with two Great Scholars of All-Under-Heaven.

However, Fang Xing remained low-key; even after his recent breakthrough to the Ninth Heavenly Layer realm, he still stayed indoors studying, not revealing himself.

Throughout the Great Unity Fang Clan, this has always been a closely kept secret.

There have been some external speculations, but the specifics remain unclear.

But unexpectedly, the Great Unity Fang Clan’s painstakingly hidden Fang Xing would be exposed today so simply.

Alas, they had little choice.

"Elder Brother, your words are too polite." Fang Xing stepped forward to greet Fang Xi, then quickly stepped in to assist: "Let’s first stabilize the situation of the ancestral land."

Whether it is holding fast or breaking out, the Great Unity Fang Clan must first resolve the overwhelming smoke that seals the skies and envelops all realms.

The Ironblood Loyal Spirit Grand Ceremony was arranged by the joint efforts of the Five Prestiges.

Presently, they are still interconnected through their qi and spirit.

The two Ninth Heavenly Layer Great Scholars of the Fang Clan ancestral land jointly resisting the ceremony’s counterattacks.

People from the other four clans immediately had a response.

"Is it Fang Yuanfeng? Did he successfully advance further?"

At the Great Unity Xiao Clan ancestral land, Clan Chief Xiao Jing was away at the world of the Han people, currently absent here.

The residing elder Xiao Yuan and others present were each solemn in expression.

Someone could not help but say: "The Fang Clan and Fang Xing, ultimately, can’t remain hidden anymore."

Xiao Yuan: "That’s because the enemy is unexpectedly strong!"

Upon these words, everyone fell silent.

They were now gathered at the Xiao Clan ancestral hall, overseeing their own ancestral land, resisting the counterattacks provoked by the Ironblood Loyal Spirit Grand Ceremony.

The Fang Clan ancestral land, connected to Jiuzhou, became the primary bearer of the ceremony’s backlash, making the current situation of the other four families’ ancestral lands relatively easier, yet still keeping everyone at their wits’ end.

Especially the Great Unity Xiao Clan.

They do not suffer as much pressure as the Fang Clan, but lacking their Ninth Heavenly Layer realm Clan Chief Xiao Jing to manage the situation, it is equally precarious.

The congregated elders, with numerous sacrificial instruments, arranged a ceremony within and outside the ancestral hall.

At the center of the ceremony, a long sword hovered in mid-air, vibrating slightly, serving as the ceremony’s core, continually assisting Xiao Yuan and others, purging the dense black smoke rushing from all directions.

The sword and ceremony combined, unleashing a vast storm sweeping all directions, most suitable for resisting the counterattacks of the Ironblood Loyal Spirit Grand Ceremony’s overwhelming smoke.

The storm was wild and fiery, as if hailing from a desert, resembling the heroic wind of the Hanhai.

This sword, named the Hanhai Sword, like the Jiuzhou Pen refined by the Fang Clan, was crafted by the Xiao Clan after their arrival in Great Unity.

In comparison, the sword intent is distinctly different from the Haoran Sword inherited by the Tang Clan in Longwai yet similarly filled with local regional characteristics, possessing Wenhua Sword Intent known from ancient times.

Having been carefully refined by the Great Unity Xiao Clan over many years, the Hanhai Sword is long established as a famous sword in Great Unity.
