As Dalton Yancy’s words fell, an even more violent aura erupted from him. He raised his hand and grabbed at the void. In the next moment, a bolt of lightning was caught in his hand and he hurled it towards Billy with immense force.
However, to Dalton Yancy’s surprise, just when he thought he could end the battle, the lightning seemed to be absorbed by something and disappeared without a trace. At the same time, he found himself in a completely unfamiliar space.
“What is this place?!” Dalton Yancy felt a bad premonition rising in his heart.
“Heavenly Xuan Space,” Billy replied calmly.
“What?!” Dalton Yancy’s pupils contracted: “The Heavenly Xuan Array Compass is in your hands?”
“Surprised?” Billy retorted.
“Are you from the Array Alliance?” Dalton Yancy asked again. Clearly, the people of the fifth-rank star domain still believed that the Heavenly Xuan Array Compass was in the hands of the Array Alliance. From this perspective, Billy’s hostility towards the Array Alliance had somewhat diminished, at least for now, as he hadn’t revealed the information.
“What do you think?” Billy responded with another question.
“Very well! Whether you are from the Array Alliance or not, I want both the Heavenly Xuan Array Compass and the Netherworld Clan’s map!” Dalton Yancy continued. “If you know what’s good for you, hand them over voluntarily, and I might leave you a whole corpse!”
“You seem to have misunderstood the situation,” Billy said calmly. “Do you really think you can still be my opponent with your current strength?”
“Second-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm, you sure talk big!” Dalton Yancy replied coldly. “Enough talk, since you won’t hand it over willingly, I’ll just put you to death first!”
With that, he attacked again! To be fair, he wasn’t bad; even in the Heavenly Xuan Space, he could still exert sixty to seventy percent of his power, enough to contend with a ninth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm opponent. But he soon realized he had overestimated himself!
After a flash of blade light, his aura deflated like a punctured balloon, and a line of blood extended from his shoulder to his waist. “How… how is this possible…” He looked down at the blood line on his body, his face filled with endless horror. Before he could finish speaking, his body split in two and collapsed. At the moment of his death, he vaguely guessed Billy’s identity; only the legendary prodigy could have such monstrous ability to surpass levels.
Billy then withdrew the Heavenly Xuan Space. “Sect Master!” Some members of Yinsha Sect nearby cried out in pain as they saw Dalton Yancy’s body falling freely in two halves. In the distance, Liana and Samuel turned to look upon hearing the noise and almost bit their tongues. Dalton Yancy, a fifth-rank Breaking Emptiness Realm expert, had been cut in half?! They were at a loss for words to describe their feelings; it was too shocking!
“Damn it!” Yale Yancy, who was fighting Samuel, cursed and quickly flew towards the courtyard. “Trying to run?” Samuel moved to chase him. “Elder Samuel, go help the others; leave him to me!” Billy said as he pursued Yale Yancy.
“Alright!” Samuel turned and charged towards an elder of the first-rank Breaking Emptiness Realm on the opposing side. Yale Yancy was already injured from his previous exchanges with Samuel and was no match for Billy. After a brief chase, a Phantom Blade Technique sent Yale Yancy’s head flying.
The ensuing battle was even less suspenseful; within about fifteen minutes, all several hundred members of Yinsha Sect lay on the ground, half dead and half crippled. With this, Yinsha Sect’s high-end combat power was completely annihilated!
After the battle ended, everyone landed in Yinsha Sect’s courtyard. The remaining one to two thousand members of Yinsha Sect struggled for about fifteen minutes before losing hundreds more and finally giving up resistance. In the end, everyone self-destructed their cultivation to save their lives. The ancient sect of Yinsha Sect, which had been entrenched in the City of the Unclaimed, officially exited the stage of history! The downfall of a sect was all because of a map!
Afterward, Stout and Judge began collecting spoils of war, emptying two warehouses in the courtyard. Stout drooled at the sight. Half an hour later, everyone returned to the Alchemists’ Alliance courtyard.
Billy had Stout divide the resources collected from Yinsha Sect into two parts, giving one part to Liana. Initially, Liana refused to accept it but eventually did under Billy’s insistence. If they could successfully refine these resources from Yinsha Sect, it would significantly boost the combat power of Alchemists’ Alliance!
Meanwhile, news of Yinsha Sect’s downfall spread like wildfire through the City of the Unclaimed, causing an uproar. Amidst the shock, everyone began inquiring who was responsible. Soon after, the name Mr. Billy spread throughout the city! Simultaneously, news of the Netherworld Clan’s treasure map also spread!
“Mr. Billy, what are your plans next?” In the main hall of Alchemists’ Alliance’s main building, Liana looked at Billy and asked. “Are you heading directly to Phoenix City or checking out the place marked on that map?”
“Let’s go to Phoenix City,” Billy replied. “If Chief Liana is interested in that treasure map, you can take it.”
“Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Billy, but you should keep it,” Liana smiled.
Just then, footsteps sounded as Samuel walked in quickly. “Chief, people from Heavenly Scent Pavilion are here!”
“Hmm?” Liana was slightly taken aback. “What are they here for?”
“They want to invite Mr. Billy to visit Heavenly Scent Pavilion,” Samuel responded.
“Elder Samuel, did they say what it’s about?” Harleen asked.
“I asked, but they didn’t say,” Samuel shook his head.
“Let’s go take a look,” Billy said as he got up and walked towards the door.
Soon after, they arrived at the courtyard entrance and saw an old woman standing with two young women. Sensing the martial aura from the old woman, Billy’s eyes narrowed slightly; she was a third-rank Breaking Emptiness Realm expert!
“Chief Liana, sorry for coming uninvited,” the old woman first addressed Liana.
“No need for apologies,” Liana smiled lightly. “What brings Jayda to our Alchemists’ Alliance?”
“Our Pavilion Master wishes to invite Mr. Billy to Heavenly Scent Pavilion for a discussion,” Jayda replied before bowing towards Billy. “Greetings, Mr. Billy!”
“Yes,” Billy nodded slightly.
“What does your Pavilion Master want with my boss?” Azure Dragon asked.
“I’m only here to invite Mr. Billy; you’ll need to meet our Pavilion Master for specifics,” Jayda continued before adding after a slight pause: “But rest assured, Mr. Billy, we mean no harm.”
“Lead the way,” Billy replied.
“Mr. Billy, do you need Elder Samuel and me to accompany you?” Liana asked.
“Thank you, Chief Liana, but there’s no need,” Billy smiled.
“If anything happens, let me know immediately,” Liana continued.
“Alright,” Billy nodded.
Two minutes later, led by Jayda and her companions, they flew towards Heavenly Scent Pavilion.
