Chapter 230: Enforcing the Immortal Laws and Imposing Heavenly Punishments
Above the swamp.
The Ice Soul Divine Pearl slowly descended, as if carrying a vast ocean; with each inch it fell, ripples spread through the void.
A chilling aura swept across the divine pearl, supporting a massive river of energy.
The terrifying force distorted the void.
The frozen mud cracked under the relentless pressure of the cascading force...
Zhang Youtai could only hear his frozen meridians and bones cracking, and his soul and consciousness collapsed.
"As for..." Zhang Youtai murmured in the instant his consciousness dissipated.
"I am merely a Qi Refining cultivator."
"Is it really necessary to use such a terrifying magical weapon to kill him?"
Zhang Youtai was completely baffled and died with his eyes wide open in disbelief.
high in the air.
Rumble!
The enormous "Ice Soul Divine Pearl" fell, smashing the mountain peak in half.
Rocks scattered everywhere, then were frozen by the cold air, turning into countless ice crystals and fragments. They were then pulverized by the constantly vibrating force and vanished into thin air. The swamp below was completely crushed and sunken.
Zhang Youtai's body was crushed into dust by a tremendous force.
All the frozen swamp mud around it was ground into powder.
Rumble!
Below, the cave in the mountainside collapsed.
At this moment, inside the mountain, there were still two Foundation Establishment cultivators from the 'Shadow Blade Alliance'.
And eleven Qi Refining cultivators.
For the past three days, they have been feeling lost and uncertain.
Some people have suggested evacuating from the Nanling Mountains.
However, the two men did not want to give up their business here, so they decided to wait and see for a few days before making a decision.
After all, they had roamed the Southern Ridge for many years, plundering numerous cultivators, and no one had been able to wipe them out.
There shouldn't be any problems now.
Furthermore, their hideout is extremely well-hidden, and few people in the Southern Ridge know about it.
Of course, one Foundation Establishment cultivator felt uneasy, so he quietly took a few of his confidants and fled.
At this moment, the two Foundation Establishment cultivators inside the mountain felt a chill in their hearts.
They felt the rocks above them cracking and fissures appearing in the earth's veins.
A chilling aura also seeped in from the crack.
This caused the stone walls inside the cave to be covered in white frost, which then quickly turned into an ice cave.
In the instant it turned into an ice cave, the stone walls shattered, and a terrifying force pressed down on them.
"What...what happened?"
"The mountains and rocks are crumbling... Is... is the world about to collapse?"
Inside the cave, many Qi Refining cultivators were filled with fear.
The two Foundation Establishment cultivators were also alarmed. They moved and immediately transformed into streaks of light, trying to escape from the mountain's interior.
The Qi Refining cultivators also scattered in all directions, trying to find a gap to escape from the mountain's interior.
However, the falling boulders prevented them from quickly escaping.
In the blink of an eye, an extremely cold aura swept over.
Those cultivators who were fleeing in all directions felt their souls tremble and shudder, their bodies frozen in place.
Even the two Foundation Establishment cultivators were frozen in mid-air.
Even with their protective light shields, they couldn't stop the cold current.
"This chill...it's terrifying!"
The two Foundation Establishment cultivators whispered to each other, their consciousness gradually becoming hazy and drowsy.
At that moment, they saw the mountain wall collapse and turn into dust.
A bead as bright as the moon, as majestic as a mountain, crashed down with an extremely cold current that seemed to freeze the heavens and the earth.
Before the beads even arrived, the chilling current had already completely frozen everyone's consciousness.
Then, a loud bang was heard.
The entire underground cavern was blasted to pieces, and the cultivators inside were annihilated, body and soul.
A deep pit, several dozen feet deep, was formed below.
On the swampy land aboard the "Moon-Sweeping Treasure Ship," Lu Wenqing looked down at the undulating landscape resembling mountains.
A great deal of turmoil was stirred in his heart.
At this moment, the mountain peak below, which was nearly three hundred feet high, had been leveled.
The earth veins beneath the mountain were also blasted into a giant crater, about 160 feet in diameter.
The pit was several tens of feet deep.
As far as the eye could see, the area within a kilometer radius of this pit was covered by ice crystals.
Snowflakes were falling from the sky.
What was originally a swamp has now become a snow pit.
Such a scene.
Such extraordinary power made Lu Wenqing finally understand what it meant to destroy mountains and shatter peaks.
What does "overturning rivers and seas" mean?
Upon seeing this, Qin Zhixue's gaze sharpened, and a slight ripple stirred within her heart.
"So this is the power of a near-fourth-tier supreme treasure!" she murmured to herself.
He couldn't help but feel a bit more wary of a Core Formation cultivator.
She was also secretly relieved that when Su Beichuan launched his surprise attack, she first used the fourteen-character mantra to destroy the "parasitic ice silkworm".
This damaged Su Beichuan's spirit and greatly weakened his vitality.
Otherwise, her idea of escaping from the clutches of a Core Formation cultivator is truly wishful thinking.
"Terrifying... Great-grandfather, are all quasi-fourth-tier supreme treasures this powerful?" Beside him, on the 'Flowing Cloud Treasure Ship,' Li Zhanfei's body was also churning like a stormy sea, unable to calm down for a long time. He glanced at the giant pit in front of him and then turned back to ask.
"Of course!" Li Hongtai said.
At this moment, he looked ahead, his face also full of solemnity.
The Azure Flame Immortal Sect also possesses near-fourth-order formations.
That wisp of blue flame was no ordinary matter.
After razing the stronghold of the "Fiend Blade Alliance," Master Wanyue gestured with her hands, and the hundred-foot-long "Ice Soul Divine Pearl" slowly flew back from below, hovering in front of her, radiating dazzling moonlight, with wisps of cold air falling down like the Milky Way in the heavens.
"The 'Fiend Blade Alliance' has wreaked havoc in the southern ridge under the jurisdiction of Ice River Valley for many years. Now, I, the Immortal Lord, have specially upheld the laws of the Immortal Realm and carried out divine punishment... to exterminate one of their sects. All remnants of the 'Fiend Blade Alliance' and all cultivators of our kind may be executed... Ice River Valley will reward those who have contributed to this."
The majestic voice of Master Wanyue resounded for miles around, echoing among the peaks of the Southern Ridge.
Upon hearing this, many cultivators were moved, and many rode the wind to fly towards the place where the sound came from.
The crowd stopped at a distance and saw the Moon-Waning Immortal with a precious treasure hanging high above his head.
The chilling aura emanating from the 'Ice Soul Divine Pearl' swept outwards, causing snow to fall within a radius of ten thousand meters.
The snow lasted for a full quarter of an hour.
The treasure ship is empty.
The icy currents from the high-hanging "Ice Soul Divine Pearl" descended and gathered into a sea in the air.
More and more cultivators from the vicinity followed the sound.
Just now, Master Wanyue flew away from the Nanling Marsh on a treasure ship.
Clearly, she did this on purpose, wanting to use the words of others to spread the news throughout the cultivation world of Chu.
This was to intimidate all sides.
After Master Wanyue and Master Hongyan left, the cultivators of Nanling flew towards the deep pit using their magical artifacts.
"The chill is terrifying..."
"The 'Evil Blade Alliance' has been wiped out just like that?"
Many people gasped at the sight.
"As far as I know, the 'Fiend Blade Alliance's' stronghold is indeed here. I never expected it to be wiped out in one fell swoop."
Someone said.
There are still people in Nanling who know the location of the "Shadow Blade Alliance".
After all, nothing stays secret forever.
With so many cultivators in the 'Shadow Blade Alliance,' it's inevitable that some of them will leak their whereabouts.
Otherwise, Ye Cangliu would not have been able to contact the "Demon Blade" in the past.
"This 'Shadow Blade Alliance' has been rampant in my Southern Ridge for decades... The three great immortal sects have never interfered... How come they have been wiped out today?" Someone looked at the ruins of the leveled mountain and said with a puzzled expression. Someone from the Southern Ridge also volunteered.
Let the Ice River Valley, the Azure Flame Immortal Sect, or the Yue Kingdom's Spirit Beast Mountain come to wipe out the Southern Ridge's treacherous cultivators.
However, the three major immortal sects always dealt with the matter perfunctorily and failed to prevent the calamity of the cultivators from being robbed.
"I heard that the 'Fierce Blade Alliance' stormed into the Ye Clan's 'Lingxiu Peak' three days ago, intending to attack their guest elder, Alchemist Yang!"
Who is Master Yang Dan?
"You don't even know Master Yang? He's an old friend of 'Fairy Moon' from Ice River Valley. In my opinion, 'Fairy Moon' must have invited Master Wanyue in a fit of rage to make an example of him, so that no one will bother Master Yang again."
"So it was the 'Fierce Blade Alliance' that provoked a big shot in the immortal sects... No wonder this Core Formation cultivator suddenly made a move?"
"That's right."
"If we hadn't harmed their people, would those high and mighty Core Formation cultivators care about the lives of us rogue cultivators?"
Near the deep pit, the cultivators of Nanling were discussing it animatedly.
No one seemed to care about this, as if they were already used to it.
After all, a Core Formation cultivator is single-mindedly devoted to the Dao and seeks only immortality.
If he has to do all those mundane things himself, how can he make progress?
As for Foundation Establishment cultivators...
If there were no profit to be made, why would they risk their lives to fight to the death with the "Fiend Blade Alliance"?
Thus, the calamity of the calamity has not been eliminated.
"So, in that case, we've actually benefited from Master Yang's good fortune?" someone said.
"Of course..."
……
Glacier Valley.
Ice and snow peaks.
In the cave behind the mountain.
Su Beichuan sat cross-legged on a jade couch.
At this moment, his body was wrapped in layers of silk-like cold silk, which transformed into a cocoon that contained him.
The door to the cave opened.
Su Mo, wearing a mask, walked over and bowed before the bed.
"Ancestor..." Su Mo began, his gaze filled with sorrow as he looked at the silkworm cocoon before him.
As Su Beichuan's knife.
He had done a lot of dirty work, and his heart had long since become almost heartless.
There was neither sorrow nor joy.
But seeing that the once spirited Core Formation Ancestor could only rely on the secret technique "Heavenly Silkworm Skill" to lock in his essence and prolong his life, he couldn't help but feel a little sad. He thought to himself that human strength is insignificant, no matter how powerful you were in life and how you controlled life and death.
But before the laws of the Great Dao, it is ultimately just a speck of dust in the long river of time, unable to make any waves.
"How is it?" Hearing Su Mo's voice, Su Beichuan slowly lifted his eyelids, which were covered with dark spots, from inside the cocoon.
His eyes were cloudy as he looked out of the cocoon and asked.
The voice was faint, barely a whisper, as if it were about to stop breathing at any moment.
Nineteen years ago.
Because the Ice Silkworm failed to possess Qin Zhixue, he suffered a backlash and his lifespan was nearing its end.
He was not supposed to live for another ten years.
In order to prolong his life, he took a longevity pill.
After abandoning his attempt to assassinate Qin Zhixue outside Black Wind City, Su Beichuan even used the secret technique of "Heavenly Silkworm Skill" to seal himself away there.
As a result, he only recovers once every few years.
No matter what.
Nine years have passed.
No one in the Su family has yet achieved the Golden Core stage.
He had no choice but to join forces with the Golden Cloud Sect to capture Yang Jiuli and prevent Qin Zhixue from achieving her Golden Core.
Otherwise, when Qin Zhixue achieves her Golden Core, the Su family will surely face great calamity.
"It failed..." Su Mo said.
"Failed?" Upon hearing this, Su Beichuan closed his eyes again, which he had just opened.
His aura was also restrained, as if he was unwilling to reveal even a wisp of his true essence.
"This Yang Jiuli is extraordinary, far from being as simple as he appears... Although 'Sha Dao' was a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator, his combat power was greater than that of a late-Foundation Establishment cultivator... Such a person perished at 'Lingxi Peak'... This person must have a great secret."
Su Mo said.
Su Beichuan remained silent.
"It's a pity, if I were to take action... I might be able to find out the truth!" Su Mo sighed.
He originally intended to make a move.
