Shi Ji took out the jade talisman and then activated it.

Suddenly, the jade talisman inside the ancestral temple trembled, and then a burst of light surged out, enveloping the stone slab.

In a flash of light, Shi Ji vanished without a trace.

When she reappeared, Shi Ji had arrived at another place, which turned out to be beside a huge lake, around which stood many cultivators.

These cultivators possessed extremely powerful auras, each one of them quite terrifying.

They were cultivators from the Ironwing Imperial Clan.

"Boy, how dare you trespass on the sacred grounds of my Ironwing Empire! You're dead!"

A chilling killing intent flashed in the eyes of a group of cultivators.

As one of the top powers in the Tianwu Continent, the Ironwing Imperial Clan's profound foundation is beyond doubt.

Even across all the myriad realms, the Ironwing Imperial Clan is a top-ranking aristocratic family, truly a behemoth.

The cultivators of the Ironwing Imperial Clan are all extremely proud.

However, four or five hundred of them were killed by Shi Ji, so these Ironwing Imperial Clan cultivators naturally hated Shi Ji.

Now, upon seeing Shiji, I wish I could devour its flesh raw, peel off its skin and bones, and tear out its tendons and skin.

Shi Ji calmly looked at these Ironwing Imperial Clan cultivators and said, "Are all the Ironwing Imperial Clan cultivators as useless as you? It's truly a pity!"

"You're asking for death!"

"Kill him, avenge our brothers!"

"You little beast, prepare to die!"

These Ironwing Imperial Clan cultivators roared in anger.

They then quickly pounced on Shi Ji.

"My cultivation has just broken through, and I'm in dire need of a battle to hone my skills. Today, I'll use you as my test subjects!"

Shi Ji remained indifferent and directly unleashed the unparalleled divine power of the Heaven-Mending Technique, instantly transforming her combat strength into 1200 times its original level.

Shi Ji strode towards the crowd, wielding the Black Dragon Sword, and unleashed a powerful slash.

After that sword strike, the sword energy stretched for thousands of meters.

In the blink of an eye, the bodies of those Ironwing Imperial Clan cultivators exploded, easily killed by Shi Ji.

One after another, Ironwing Imperial Clan cultivators fell to the ground, dying without even having time to react.

Shiji continued walking towards the ancestral temple.

Inside the ancestral temple, there are three statues of the ancestors of the Iron Winged Imperial Clan.

Shi Ji planned to kill the three Iron Winged Imperial Clan ancestors first.

These three patriarchs are the most dangerous beings; only by eliminating them can the mission be completed.

"You little thief, don't be so arrogant! How dare you infiltrate our Ironwing Imperial Clan and cause such a disturbance! You deserve to die!"

Just then, a sinister voice echoed through the air, followed by a streak of blood-red light that flew towards Shi Ji.

Shi Ji raised her right foot and kicked.

The blood-red light was blasted apart by Shi Ji's kick, and then a man emerged from within the blood-red light.

This man is a vengeful ghost.

"Huh, it's actually a Blood Shadow Demon!" Shi Ji exclaimed in surprise.

Blood Shadow is an extremely rare type of evil spirit.

This kind of ghost is very different from ordinary ghosts.

Ordinary ghosts have relatively simple souls, but the soul of the Blood Shadow Ghost is extremely evil.

Blood Shadow Demons enjoy feeding on living creatures.

And he also has some particularly strange hobbies.

He liked to grab women's bodies, cut them into pieces, and then stuff them into his mouth to chew.

The Blood Shadow Demon is a bizarre existence that defies description; any cultivator targeted by it is almost certain to die.

Of course, the cultivation conditions for Blood Shadow Ghosts are extremely harsh, requiring an endless supply of wronged souls, corpses, and blood to nourish themselves.

Therefore, once the Blood Shadow Ghost appears...

This will inevitably lead to endless slaughter.

A Blood Shadow Demon has appeared here.

This is sufficient proof that the Ironwing Imperial Clan members have likely suffered a calamity.

Shi Ji sneered, "Blood Shadow Demon, is it? I'll kill you with my own hands later!"

"You lowly ant, do you even dare to say you want to kill me?" Blood Shadow Demon laughed sinisterly, opening his mouth and spewing out a cloud of resentment.

The overwhelming resentment transformed into endless blood shadows, which surged towards Shiji in dense clusters.

The Blood Shadow Demon's attacks are extremely bizarre and terrifying; these blood shadows formed from condensed resentment possess power that is truly heaven-defying.

Ordinary magical artifacts.

They might not even be able to withstand the attack of the Blood Shadow Demon.

Shi Ji had no intention of using her divine artifact to fight the Blood Shadow Demon.

Shi Ji threw a punch.

In an instant, the void began to shake violently.

Immediately afterwards, an energy sphere condensed.

The energy sphere rapidly increased in size.

A deafening crash followed.

All the blood-red figures were blasted away.

"How is this possible?" Blood Shadow Ghost's face was full of disbelief.

He had not expected Shi Ji to be so powerful.

"Blood Shadow Demon, since you're here, you might as well leave your life behind!"

Shi Ji's voice was icy.

He lunged at the Blood Shadow Demon.

Blood Shadow Ghost kept dodging Stone Rock's attacks.

He was incredibly fast, and in the blink of an eye, he had passed by Shi Ji.

Then the Blood Shadow Demon vanished.

It turned out to be an illusory body.

The Blood Shadow Demon wanted to escape using a phantom body.

But he underestimated Shiji.

Shi Ji waved her hand.

A sword aura slashed towards the Blood Shadow Ghost.

A loud clanging sound suddenly rang out.

The Blood Shadow Demon appeared, his chest torn open.

The Blood Shadow Demon coughed up a large amount of blood.

The Blood Shadow Demon howled in agony.

“I’m not a soft-hearted person,” Shi Ji said.

"Master, save me! Master, save me!" Blood Shadow Ghost knew that Shi Ji was an enemy of the Iron Wing Imperial Clan, so he hoped that Shi Ji could plead for him and perhaps save his life.

Shi Ji completely ignored Blood Shadow Ghost's pleas for mercy.

Shi Ji threw a punch at the Blood Shadow Ghost... The Blood Shadow Ghost was terrified and hurriedly fled into the distance, but Shi Ji was even faster.

He caught up with the Blood Shadow Demon and punched him.

Blood Shadow Demon was killed by Shi Ji with a single punch.

A weak voice suddenly came from the depths of the valley.

Shi Ji squinted as she looked.

Three old men were sitting cross-legged deep inside the cave.

One of the elderly men was seriously injured, while the other two were covered in wounds, clearly having suffered severe injuries.

"People from the eight great imperial clans of the Ironwing Imperial Clan, it seems something has happened here!"

Shi Ji raised an eyebrow slightly.

The Ironwing Clan did not feel ashamed that Shi Ji defeated the Blood Shadow Demon; on the contrary, they treated Shi Ji with great courtesy.

In fact, Shi Ji had previously vaguely guessed that something had probably happened to the Iron Wing Imperial Clan, since she had heard in recent years that there seemed to be some problems with the higher-ups of the Iron Wing Imperial Clan.

Therefore, the Ironwing Emperor, the patriarch of the Ironwing Imperial Clan, has not yet emerged from seclusion. Otherwise, he would not have dispatched the elders of the Ironwing Imperial Clan to lead the cultivators of the Ironwing Imperial Clan into the Land of Fallen Gods to search for treasures.

"Young friend, you misunderstand! We are not members of the Ironwing Imperial Clan, but rather the Blood Sea Royal Clan!"

Shi Ji frowned. "Could it be that your Ironwing Imperial Clan has also sided with the Blood Sea Royal Clan?"

"Haha, young friend, you jest! How could our Ironwing Imperial Clan betray the Ironwing Imperial Clan?"

Another elder smiled and said, "Although our Ironwing Imperial Clan does not belong to the Blood Sea Royal Clan, we still have countless connections with them!"

"Oh? Is that so? What is the connection between your Ironwing Imperial Clan and the Blood Sea Royal Clan?" Shi Ji asked in confusion.

“Our Ironwing Imperial Clan and the Blood Sea Royal Clan have a close cooperative relationship. Some members of our Ironwing Imperial Clan hold important positions in the Blood Sea Royal Palace!”

"What is your name? Which imperial clan are you the patriarch of?" Shi Ji asked.

"I am Tie Yi Cangqiong, the patriarch of the Tie Yi Imperial Clan! To be honest, young friend, I am also acquainted with several princes of the Blood Sea Royal Clan!"

Shi Ji nodded and said, "I've heard that several forces are currently besieging your Ironwing Imperial Clan?"

"Yes, there are indeed several forces that are besieging our Ironwing Imperial Clan, and they have sent people to assassinate members of our Ironwing Imperial Clan's royal family more than once!"

"It seems that this force wants to annex the Ironwing Imperial Clan. If they do, the Blood Sea Royal Palace will become even more powerful, and it will be difficult to deal with them then."

"Yes, our Ironwing Imperial Clan has already suffered heavy losses. If we lose some more top experts, the strength of the Ironwing Imperial Clan will decline to its lowest point, and we may soon be wiped out!"

Ironwing Sky sighed.

Shi Ji asked, "Your Ironwing Imperial Clan has a deep foundation; you should be able to persuade the Ironwing King to intervene, right?"

Ironwing Sky said bitterly, "Ironwing King passed away many years ago. Now, Blood Sea King controls the entire Blood Sea King's Palace!"
Blood Sea King is a ruthless character who has slaughtered many powerful forces! He is cunning and ambitious. If our Iron Wing Imperial Clan asks him for help, he will definitely agree.

However, the relationship between our Ironwing Imperial Clan and the Ironwing Royal Clan is extremely complex; therefore, our Ironwing Imperial Clan dares not easily seek assistance from the Ironwing Royal Palace!

"Heh, these things are none of my business! I'm too lazy to care! But you must tell me, what secret is Ironwing King hiding?"
Why does the Iron Wing Prince's Mansion possess such a heaven-defying treasure as the Nine Dragons Locking Gold Stone? What exactly is this Nine Dragons Locking Gold Stone? Why does the Iron Wing Prince's Mansion have the Nine Dragons Locking Gold Stone?

"Don't you really know why the Iron Wing Prince's Mansion has the Nine Dragons Locking Gold Stone? It is said that the Nine Dragons Locking Gold Stone is a treasure passed down from ancient times."

Legend has it that every few million years, a great upheaval occurs in the Blood Demon Realm, giving birth to many supreme treasures. The Nine Dragons Locking Gold Stone is one of these treasures!

"So that's how it is! No wonder the Blood Sea King's Mansion keeps such a treasure!"

Shi Ji took a deep breath and continued, "Since the Iron Wing Royal Palace has such a terrifying treasure as the Nine Dragons Locking Gold Stone, the Blood Sea Royal Palace should also control a large amount of resources."

Why doesn't your Ironwing Imperial Clan take advantage of the chaos and seize the resources of the Blood Sea Royal Palace?

"Alas, it's easier said than done! Our Ironwing Imperial Clan did consider this matter back then, but unfortunately, the Blood Sea Royal Palace is heavily fortified, making it virtually impossible to seize its resources."

"In fact, on several occasions, our Ironwing Imperial Clan was nearly wiped out! Therefore, the Ironwing Imperial Clan no longer dares to provoke the Blood Sea King's Mansion, but is secretly observing it, hoping to find a way to break the Blood Sea King's Mansion's restrictions!"

Ironwing Sky is a sensible person.

Shi Ji asked, "Why does the Blood Sea King's Palace want to seal me away?"

"The things in the Blood Sea King's Mansion are too evil!" Tie Yi Cangqiong shook his head with a wry smile, clearly unwilling to mention what exactly was hidden in the Blood Sea King's Mansion.

Shi Ji said, "Your Iron Wing Imperial Clan might as well send a team to infiltrate the Blood Sea King's Mansion to investigate!"

"There's no need to go. The Blood Sea King's Mansion is surrounded by various array patterns. No matter how powerful an expert is, if they try to sneak in, they will die without a burial place! Unless they are an Emperor-level expert, they might still have a chance!"

"I see. In that case, let's split up and proceed!" Shi Ji said.

"Young friend, our Ironwing Imperial Clan suffered heavy losses in the previous attack and would like to invite you to join us! Would you be willing to give us this opportunity?"

Ironwing Sky looked towards Stone Rock with anticipation.

"Your Ironwing Imperial Clan has a group of elite troops, whose combat strength is considerable and sufficient to protect you. I only need one pill!" Shi Ji said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Iron Wing Sky immediately wore a bitter smile.

He naturally understood what medicine Shi Ji was referring to.

Shi Ji was referring to the Nine-Aperture Dragon Soul Pill.

This pill is extremely effective against peak Emperor Realm experts.

Moreover, Shi Ji had just killed the Bloodwing Prince, and her methods were unpredictable.

His alchemy skills must have been extremely advanced.

Ironwing Sky felt that Shiji was more than capable of persuading the Ironwing Clan to submit to him, so he wanted to win Shiji over and hope that she would help the Ironwing Clan resolve the crisis.

Ironwing Sky had no idea that Stone Will would propose conditions.

Ironwing Sky said, "I understand what you mean, but I cannot give you this pill formula! This is the last resort of the Ironwing Imperial Clan!"

Shi Ji frowned slightly. It seemed that Iron Wing Sky did not trust him and therefore refused.

Shi Ji said, "This is a Nine-Aperture Dragon Soul Pill. Taking it will greatly benefit your cultivation. You may consider my suggestion!"

Ironwing Sky smiled bitterly, "The Nine Aperture Dragon Soul Pill is indeed extremely important to our Ironwing Imperial Clan, but this item absolutely cannot be given to you! If you insist on doing so, I will have no choice but to send you on your way!"

Before he finished speaking, Iron Wings swept towards Stone Cliff.

He was incredibly fast, and in the blink of an eye he was beside Shi Ji.

He then reached out and grabbed at the rock.

Shi Ji then vanished in a flash.

Ironwing Sky missed its target.

He looked at Shi Ji in surprise, not expecting that Shi Ji could dodge his attack.

And the speed was unbelievably fast.

"I advise you not to get involved in this matter, or don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Shi Ji coldly stared at the Iron Wing Sky.

"Hmph, the dignity of my Ironwing Imperial Clan cannot be trampled upon by anyone!"

Ironwing Sky snorted coldly, then waved his hand and ordered, "All experts of the Ironwing Empire, come forth and capture this fiend!"

One by one, experts from the Ironwing Imperial Clan flew in from afar, a total of forty-two powerful figures, all surrounding Shiji.

These forty-two cultivators were all at the Immortal Lord level, with extremely powerful cultivation. Even an Emperor-level expert would be in danger of perishing if surrounded by them.

Besides, Shi Ji is not an Emperor-level powerhouse.
Ironwing Sky repeatedly sneered, "Boy, now I want to see how you will withstand the siege of forty-two Immortal Lord level experts from my Ironwing Imperial Clan?"

"Are you really going to force me to take action? If I do, the Ironwing Imperial Clan will be completely annihilated, and all of you will be buried with them!" Shi Ji looked indifferently at the Ironwing Sky.

Ironwing Sky said with a gloomy expression, "Do you really think my Ironwing Imperial Clan will be intimidated?"

"Hehe, whether it scared you or not, you'll know once you try!"

Shi Ji grinned and then walked step by step toward the Iron Wing Sky.

"Let's all attack and kill this scoundrel!"

Ironwing Sky roared and charged towards the rocky shore first.

Immediately afterwards, all forty-two experts made their move. (End of Chapter)
