Chapter 2344: The Depth of the Lost Clan

At the Shenyi Continent, with the Lost Clan at the center, a petrifying golden glory now permeated and radiated over the entire continent. The continent was colored by a dusky glow that shrouded the whole continent under its brilliance.

Looking down from up on high, it was clear that what radiated over the entire continent was, in fact, a gigantic matrix covering the vast expanse of Shenyi Continent. Within this enormous matrix, splendid pictures and patterns could clearly be made out. In these patterns, one could vaguely see ancient gods standing there, blending into the matrix as if they were part of it.

This mammoth of a super matrix was the result of generational efforts by the ancestors of the Lost Clan. After they had perished, some ancestors chose to integrate the last of their will into the matrix and became part of it. For countless years, this super colossal matrix had absorbed the will of many ancestors in the Lost Clan. Today, it had become a truly terrifying super matrix. Relying only on this super matrix, the Lost Clan was able to stay safe while traveling through the space of the void except in the most dangerous situations.

The Shenyi Continent was not alone. The land of the Lost Clan also lit up with an incomparably splendid divine brilliance. The Lost Clan’s secret zone paradise was shrouded with a terrifying golden divine glory, which then gradually disappeared until nothing was left as if it had never been there before. This sight shocked many cultivators, and they remembered the words previously spoken by the cultivator from the Lost Clan.

If the Lost Clan were defeated, they would not allow outsiders to enter the Lost Clan’s secret zone paradise. They would rather destroy it than allowing these outside cultivators to get what they wanted.

Perhaps, what the Lost Clan had said was the truth.

Inside the battlefield, the sky and the earth shattered, the space collapsed, and terrifying attacks collided. Many cultivators were injured, including some who were considered really powerful. However, that supremely aggressive Battle Matrix of the Rocks also sustained damages with those repeated attacks. Cracks began appearing until they finally collapsed and shattered. For this, the cultivators from all sides paid a heavy price. Some of the powerful cultivators had survived the Divine Tribulation of the Great Path, but they, too, had been severely injured by it.

After the Battle Matrix of the Rocks was broken, both sides were immediately stationed in different positions above the firmament. Major figureheads stood scattered, an astonishing aura bursting from each of them. The atmosphere was so powerful that it was simply chilling.

“Are there this many top figures in the Lost Clan?” There was a slight disturbance in the hearts of these cultivators. The Lost Clan was not facing just one group of forces but many top powers of the Divine Prefecture and cultivators from other worlds. The lineup was so powerful that it was almost something that no existence could contend with. The fact that the Lost Clan was able to hold them off was, in itself, quite an astonishing feat. This clearly demonstrated the terror the Lost Clan was capable of.

After the two sides separated, a cultivator from Divine Prefecture looked at those great cultivators from the Lost Clan across the air and said loud and clear, “The battle matrix collapsed. If you continue to fight, it will probably spell total disaster for the Lost Clan. Are you sure you want to do this?”

“Yes, we just wanted to go into the secret zone paradise to see what was so amazing about the Lost Clan’s cultivation method. We never thought about eradicating the Lost Clan. There is still time for you to change your minds now. There is no need to engage in such a huge fight,” someone else piped up, urging the cultivators from the Lost Clan to give up their resistance and allow them entry into the secret zone paradise to cultivate.

“I would also like to reiterate and remind you that the Lost Clan did not come here to be your enemy. Our only goal to come to the Original Realm was just to cultivate quietly. But if you are insisting on taking such an aggressive stance against us, the Lost Clan will fight you at all costs,” the cultivator from the Lost Clan replied.

“At all costs?” All the cultivators directed their gazes toward the man who spoke. Before, they had some reservations and didn’t really intend to act on it. But now that they had reached this juncture, if they were to fight an all-out war, how would the Lost Clan contend with that?

“Does the Lost Clan really want to disappear forever from this world?” one cultivator asked in a threatening tone.

“Long live the Lost Clan!” a solemn voice declared as those words reverberated throughout the world. Then, all those hands clasped together with divine light lingering as that somber voice still ranging throughout the space. On the ground below, that matrix, which was covering the entire Shenyi Continent, seemed to be coming alive now. Endless rays of glory bloomed outward, rushing straight into the firmament. In an instant, a shining radiance enveloped the entire continent, and a voice seemed to be speaking from an era long forgotten, passing through time and space to awaken those ancestors of theirs.

Boom… A terrifying sound was heard, accompanied by the blooming of countless divine lights. Phantoms appeared above the sky as cultivators from the Lost Clan stepped up towards those phantoms as if to merge with them.

“Using the matrix to fight?” Everyone’s eyes narrowed, and only then did they realize that this superb and gigantic matrix was not only protecting the Shenyi Continent from invasions but could also be awakened to fight and produce a certain connection with the cultivators of the Lost Clan.

A real ancient deity appeared, standing tall between heaven and earth; it felt extremely massive. He glanced towards the space below, and a horrific golden divine glory beamed out from his brow chakra, which instantly turned into countless golden lightning, smashing down at the cultivators below.

“Watch out!” someone cautioned as the cultivators beneath had sensed imminent danger. Suddenly, the group of men began to dodge and evade with incredible speed.

But at the same time, in different positions above the sky, ancient gods emerged one after another. The top figures from the Lost Clan had integrated into them, resonating with the matrix and emitting golden divine light. This was far more terrifying than the Battle Matrix of the Rocks from before.

It seemed that this was the truly superb battle matrix, the one that had kept Shenyi Continent protected.

Those golden divine lights were like rays of spatial destruction. The space over which these rays passed was instantly penetrated. Whether it was a solid object or the void, everything those rays touched was bound to be pierced and destroyed. This was the ability used by the Lost Clan while they were traveling through the dark space to find a way out. It could pierce through the boundless space, and it bore through it effectively.

Puff… A top Renhuang was shot by the divine light of space. As his body was pierced by the light, his face paled and was overcome by a look of hopelessness. Then, as clusters of spatial divine glory hitting him at the same time, his body was torn apart and shattered, pulverized into nothingness. He died instantly.

“How powerful.” When Ye Futian saw this, his heart trembled with awe. Above the firmament, ancient gods seemed to be standing watch over them all. The power of those ancestors seemed to have been awakened and integrated into the matrix and echoed the power exuded from the cultivators of the Lost Clan. The resonance erupted with the power of destruction, which was absolutely devastating for cultivators from every side.

“It seems that they have underestimated the Lost Clan,” Emperor Nan observed. The depth of this ancient clan that had traveled through the dark world for countless years was truly frightening. Their strength could not be countered simply by one principality alone. Unless powerful forces, such as Empty Mountain and Devil Imperial Palace, united all of their top cultivators, they could not possibly stand a chance. However, the problem was that only a small number of their best cultivators were dispatched here!
