"Third Crown Prince, be careful!"
Seeing the Heishan Old Demon attack without saying a word, Luo Xuanyin turned pale with fright.
Boom!
!!
As he roared, he raised his hand and took out a navy-blue Azure Dragon Seal. With an earth-shattering power, it pressed down on the Heishan Old Demon. This Azure Dragon Seal was a treasure bestowed by the Emperor of the Xia Dynasty. At the same time, it was also a top-notch Human Dao ancient spiritual weapon.
Luo Xuanyin cherished the Azure Dragon Seal very much and had always regarded it as an important trump card. He didn't use it even in the Buried Dragon Secret Realm.
But now, he had been severely injured by the undead knight and was facing a powerful ferocious demon like the Heishan Old Demon. To protect Yan Wuque from being injured, he naturally could not hold back anymore.
Boom!
The Azure Dragon Seal, a top-notch Human Dao ancient spiritual weapon, was extremely powerful. 𝚗𝒪𝗏𝑒𝑙𝗇𝑒xt.𝒞𝑶𝚖
When it pressed down crazily, the entire sky seemed to collapse in an instant. Its terrifying power caused the people with weak cultivation in the surroundings to vomit blood and die.
In fact, many of them could not withstand the impact of the mighty power, and their bodies were directly obliterated.
For a moment, the onlookers retreated frantically.
However, this did not include the Heishan Old Demon.
Although the Azure Dragon Seal was strong, he was not to be trifled with either.
"Roar! Die for stealing my Paramita Divine Flower!"
The Heishan Old Demon let out an earth-shaking tiger roar as he swung the Seven Kills Demonic Blade in his hand. A powerful black saber light illuminated the nearby void and slashed at the Azure Dragon Seal.
Bang!
The two top-notch Human Dao ancient spiritual weapons collided. With the Buried Dragon Ridge as the center, sand and stones flew within a radius of 10,000 feet, and the ground toppled.
In an instant, the buildings on the Buried Dragon Ridge were all razed to the ground.
"Wow… So this is the peerless old demon of the Divine Mansion realm? He's actually so terrifying?" In the distance, someone said in shock.
The Heishan Old Demon and Luo Xuanyin were both at the perfection stage of the Divine Mansion realm.
However, the Heishan Old Demon was a demon cultivator. He was stronger than Luo Xuanyin in both strength and heritage.
Moreover, Luo Xuanyin was already seriously injured. Therefore, he was no match for the Heishan Old Demon.
Rumble!
Accompanied by a muffled groan, Luo Xuanyin spat out a mouthful of blood under the powerful impact of the Human Dao ancient spiritual weapon and flew backward.
Seeing this, Yan Wuque was shocked.
"Elder Luo!" He cried out anxiously and wanted to go forward.
However, Luo Xuanyin stopped him.
"Third Crown Prince, leave quickly! I'll stop the Heishan Old Demon!" Luo Xuanyin shouted when he saw the Heishan Old Demon charging at him again.
After saying that, intense madness instantly surged in his eyes as his hands began to form seals.
"Soul-burning Technique!"
Boom!
With Luo Xuanyin's ferocious roar, the aura around him suddenly soared. With that, he had broken through the shackles of the Divine Mansion realm and stepped into the Divine Strength realm.
"That old thing Luo Xuanyin actually has the Soul-burning Technique?"
In the secret realm in the distance, seeing Luo Xuanyin's actions and the powerful aura that erupted from his body, the Mad Daoist couldn't help but reveal an extremely surprised expression.
Similarly, Lin Wudao was also a little surprised.
The so-called Soul-burning Technique was a very magical secret technique. Once used, it could burn one's soul and forcefully increase one's cultivation and strength.
However, once one's soul power was completely burned, one would also die. Therefore, unless one had no choice and this was a last resort, it could not be used.
Furthermore, it was said that this secret technique had already been lost ten thousand years ago.
None of them had expected that Luo Xuanyin would have such a magical technique in his hands.
"Brother Ren, Luo Xuanyin has burned his soul and forcefully raised his cultivation to the Divine Strength realm. I'm afraid the Heishan Old Demon is no match for him."
The Mad Daoist frowned.
Hearing this, Lin Wudao nodded in agreement.
"The Heishan Old Demon is indeed no match for Luo Xuanyin at this moment. However, I have my ways to kill him."
Hmm? He had a way?
Hearing this, the Mad Daoist and Qin Daofu both revealed looks of anticipation.
At the same time, when he saw that Luo Xuanyin's cultivation had reached the Divine Strength realm, the pupils of the Heishan Old Demon contracted.
At this moment, he felt a great threat from Luo Xuanyin. Without any hesitation, he immediately turned around and fled.
"Heishan Old Demon, die!" Luo Xuanyin's earth-shattering roar echoed through the air.
Boom!
He took a step forward and charged over crazily, holding the Azure Dragon Seal in his hand.
Seeing this, the Heishan Old Demon could not help but feel a strong sense of panic. He was only at the perfection stage of the Divine Mansion realm, so he was no match for the current Luo Xuanyin.
What should he do?
For a moment, he panicked to the extreme.
"Don't panic. With me around, Luo Xuanyin can't do anything to you."
Just as the Heishan Old Demon was panicking, a mysterious voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
Senior?
Hearing this, the Heishan Old Demon was overjoyed. The panic in his heart disappeared in an instant. With that senior backing him up, he was naturally not afraid.
Thump!
As such, the Heishan Old Demon didn't retreat. Instead, he advanced with the Seven Kills Demonic Blade in his hand and aggressively charged at Luo Xuanyin again.
This scene caused the surrounding spectators to be greatly puzzled. They were all curious about where the Heishan Old Demon had gotten the courage to confront Luo Xuanyin, who was in the Divine Strength realm. Very quickly, the confusion in his heart was resolved.
Because, at this moment, Lin Wudao had already formed a doppelganger who silently arrived behind Luo Xuanyin.
"Pure Land of the Heavens!"
He immediately used the Great Emperor dharma technique, the Pure Land of the Heavens.
Boom!
In an instant, a mysterious force enveloped Luo Xuanyin.
Immediately after, coupled with Luo Xuanyin's terrified expression, his cultivation dropped by a major realm, from the early stage of the Divine Strength realm to the early stage of the Divine Mansion realm.
"This… How was this possible? My cultivation!"
The sudden change scared Luo Xuanyin out of his wits.
The Soul-burning Technique was his final trump card.
To suppress the Heishan Old Demon, he did not hesitate to use a forbidden technique and burn his own soul to obtain powerful cultivation and strength.
Yet, it had only been a few breaths, and his cultivation had fallen by a major realm?
Luo Xuanyin couldn't believe this.
To be honest, he was not the only one who found it unbelievable. Even the Heishan Old Demon himself gasped at this moment. He was extremely shocked by Lin Wudao's methods.
"Senior is indeed remarkable. He's not something I can imagine!" He exclaimed.
At this moment, the respect and reverence that the Heishan Old Demon had for Lin Wudao had reached an unprecedented level.
Similarly, he did not let go of this golden opportunity.
Boom!
While Luo Xuanyin's cultivation was suppressed, the Heishan Old Demon appeared before him in a flash. Then, he raised his hand and punched Luo Xuanyin's Divine Mansion, shattering his bones and tendons. "Ah!"
With a shrill scream, Luo Xuanyin was reduced from a mighty cultivator of the Divine Mansion realm to a cripple in the blink of an eye under the shocked gazes of countless spectators.
"Oh my god, what happened just now? Why do I feel that Luo Xuanyin's cultivation has dropped so much?" Someone exclaimed.
"I'm not sure."
"My guess is that the Heishan Old Demon used some kind of secret technique."
"Wow… To be able to forcefully decrease the other party's cultivation realm, isn't this secret technique too heaven-defying?"
"Luo Xuanyin is completely crippled."
Many shocked voices sounded.
The Heishan Old Demon did not care.
His large hand grabbed Luo Xuanyin's neck and lifted him from the ground.
"Where is the Paramita Divine Flower?"
"I… I don't… have it…" Luo Xuanyin said painfully.
At this moment, after suffering the brutal attack of the Heishan Old Demon, he was extremely weak.
"Hmph, don't think I don't know. The Paramita Divine Flower is definitely with the Third Crown Prince of the Xia Dynasty. Do you think he can escape?" The Heishan Old Demon roared fiercely.
After saying that, he immediately threw Luo Xuanyin into the Buried Dragon Secret Realm, then turned around and rode a streak of light toward Yan Wuque. "Brothers, it's time for the big stuff!"
As soon as the Heishan Old Demon left, the Mad Daoist's joyful voice rang out in the Secret Realm.
Lin Wudao picked up the Azure Dragon Seal that Luo Xuanyin had left behind.
Then, he found Luo Xuanyin and dragged him to the third level of the Secret Realm.
After that, they began to take turns to exploit him..

"Great Tomb Supreme Technique!"
On the third level of the Buried Dragon Secret Realm, the Mad Daoist was absorbing Luo Xuanyin's life force with the Great Tomb Supreme Technique while the latter was in a state of panic and fear.
In the end, he successfully increased his lifespan by 1,500 years.
!!
After the Mad Daoist absorbed all of Luo Xuanyin's life force, Qin Daofu did not hesitate. He waved his hand gently, and the ancient and eerie Undead Altar appeared on the ground.
He began to perform the ritual to expiate Luo Xuanyin's sins.
The value of a Divine Mansion realm expert was indeed different.
Boom!
After successfully expiating Luo Xuanyin's sins, a powerful aura suddenly erupted from Qin Daofu's body. His cultivation rose from the peak of the Mystic Heaven realm to the early stage of the Heaven Manipulation realm. 𝑛𝗈𝒱𝔢𝓵𝓷𝔢xt.𝗰𝞸𝐦
This made him overjoyed.
"A great cultivator at the Divine Mansion realm is indeed powerful," A brilliant smile blossomed on Qin Daofu's face.
"Brother Ren, it's all thanks to you this time. Otherwise, with the strength and methods of the old lunatic and me, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to kill Luo Xuanyin. We have all benefited from you," He laughed.
Hearing this, Lin Wudao didn't say anything. He simply waved his hand and instantly put Luo Xuanyin's body in the system space.
Rumble!
Just as they finished exploiting Luo Xuanyin, a series of earth-shattering collisions suddenly sounded outside the third level of the secret realm.
Other than that, there was also a tiger's roar.
"The Heishan Old Demon is back."
The three of the derstood.
As he spoke, Lin Wudao raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the door. In an instant, the undead knight that was in a frenzied state of attack instantly quieted down, returning to its statue form.
Seeing this, although the Heishan Old Demon was shocked and curious, he did not think too much about it. He immediately carried the terrified Yan Wuque and strode to the third level of the secret realm.
Whoosh!
His cold gaze swept past the Mad Daoist and Qin Daofu before finally looking at Lin Wudao.
"Hu Shatian greets Senior."
With infinite respect and gratitude, the Heishan Old Demon knelt respectfully and kowtowed to Lin Wudao.
Senior? Did Brother Ren really subdue the Heishan Old Demon?
The Mad Daoist and Qin Daofu, who had already received the news, weren't too surprised when they saw this. On the contrary, Yan Wuque, who had been thrown to the ground, widened his eyes.
He was in disbelief to the extreme.
"Heishan Old Demon, you… You and the Wicked Trio are…"
Pa!
Just as Yan Wuque's shocked and hateful voice rang out, the Heishan Old Demon suddenly slapped him hard on the face.
The powerful force sent all his teeth flying.
"How dare you disrespect Senior. You're courting death!"
A cold killing intent enveloped Yan Wuque, causing him to tremble in fear.
At this moment, he had already realized that this so-called Buried Dragon Secret Realm might be a trap deliberately set up by these people in front of him. Their goal was to attract powerhouses to come and die.
At the thought of this, unprecedented fear and despair surged in Yan Wuque's heart.
Lin Wudao did not pity him.
"Old lunatic, I'll leave Yan Wuque to you."
"No problem. I will let him enjoy the taste of death, hehe…"
The Mad Daoist revealed an evil smile.
After saying that, he did not give Yan Wuque any chance to resist at all and dragged him to the depths of the third level of the secret realm.
Soon, Yan Wuque's incomparably miserable scream came from inside.
"Hu Shatian, you did very well this time."
"Oh, it's all thanks to Senior's help. I don't dare to take credit for it…"
The Heishan Old Demon lowered his stance. His expression was extremely respectful.
Lin Wudao nodded in approval.
"Just now, outside the Buried Dragon Secret Realm, everyone saw you suppressing Luo Xuanyin. If nothing goes wrong, the Xia Dynasty will definitely blame the deaths of Yan Wuque and Luo Xuanyin on you. Next, you will temporarily stay in the Buried Dragon Secret Realm and pretend to do your best to break through the secret realm. With this, the people outside will believe that the Paramita Divine Flower is still in the Buried Dragon Secret Realm. As long as the Paramita Divine Flower is here, more people will come to send themselves to their deaths."
"In addition, the Xia Dynasty might also send powerhouses over. You have to be mentally prepared. However, you don't have to worry. There are undead knights here that I have placed. They can kill existences at the perfection stage of the Divine Strength realm. If the Xia Dynasty really dares to come, I'll send them to their deaths," Lin Wudao said calmly.
"Yes, sir."
The Heishan Old Demon naturally did not dare to disobey his orders.
"Oh right, Senior, what should I do if an expert beyond the Divine Strength realm comes?"
"I have my ideas on this. You only need to do your thing."
Just as they were talking, the Mad Daoist walked out with Yan Wuque's corpse in his hands, a bright smile on his face.
From Yan Wuque, he had gained another 800 years of lifespan. He had made a huge profit this time.
Similarly, after expiating Yan Wuque's sins, Qin Daofu's cultivation had also improved slightly, not far from the mid-stage of the Heaven Manipulation realm.
"Congratulations to the two of you!"
"Hehe, thank you. One cultivator at the perfection stage of the Divine Mansion realm and another at the perfection stage of the Heavenly Nirvana realm can already bring us such a huge harvest. If there are a few more like these two, won't we just take off? The old lunatic is right. We should be able to operate the Buried Dragon Secret Realm a few more times and gain more benefits. It shouldn't be a problem for me to reach the perfection stage of the Heaven Manipulation realm by then."
Qin Daofu was also full of smiles.
Ever since the Netherworld Coffin Shop opened, he had never had such a huge harvest.
"Guard the place first. I will be entering seclusion to cultivate too."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Wudao immediately went to the depths of the third level and collected the bodies of Luo Xuanyin and Yan Wuque, putting them into the heaven burial bronze coffin.
[Ding!]
[You have collected Luo Xuanyin's corpse and obtained 50 years of cultivation. After the system's tenfold enhancement, you have obtained 500 years of cultivation.]
[You have collected Yan Wuque's corpse and obtained 3,000,000 Fate Energy value. After the system's tenfold enhancement, you have obtained 30,000,000 Fate Energy value.]
Two notifications sounded in his mind.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
As the voice fell, a surge of surging power appeared out of thin air in Lin Wudao's body. It instantly flowed around his body and crazily pushed his cultivation.
Heavenly Cycle realm.
Heaven Capture realm. Mystic Heaven realm.
When the last bit of power was exhausted, Lin Wudao's cultivation ultimately welcomed a huge improvement and reached the perfection stage of the Mystic Heaven realm.
He was only half a step away from the Heaven Manipulation realm! "As expected, the stronger the living being, the greater the harvest after collecting the corpse. If there were a few more people like Luo Xuanyin, I might be able to break through to the Divine Mansion realm soon…"
Lin Wudao revealed a satisfied expression.
Luo Xuanyin's five hundred years of cultivation had greatly increased his strength.
In addition, he had also obtained 30 million Fate Energy value from Yan Wuque, which was also a huge harvest.
His painstaking efforts were not in vain. Now, he finally welcomed a generous return.
"Next, I'll refine the 8,000 corpses in the Corpse-refining Furnace. I wonder if I can break through to the Heaven Manipulation realm…"
Lin Wudao's eyes were filled with anticipation.
As he spoke, he was prepared to make a move and refine all of them.
Buzz!
However, at this moment, a piece of God-summoning Paper suddenly appeared in front of him and transformed into words in the air. [Master, the other mourners just sent news that the Shangqing Sword Palace sent the Wind-lightning Swordsman, Lü Qinghou, to the City of Sin and took all of our people hostage.]
[Lü Qinghou has threatened that if Master doesn't return within three days, he will kill everyone in the City of Sin.]
The God-summoning Paper was sent by Li Zangtian. Shangqing Sword Palace? Wing-lightning Swordsman, Lü Qinghou?
Lin Wudao's expression darkened as he read the contents of the paper.
Previously, he had threatened Lin Xuanzhen, the tenth successive disciple of the Shangqing Sword Palace, to force Wei Qingsi to her death. Now, retribution had finally arrived.
To think he was not being threatened by the Shangqing Sword Palace! "Wind-lightning Swordsman Lü Qinghou? I'd like to see just what ability you have…"
A cold smile appeared on Lin Wudao's face.
Then, he appeared in front of the Heishan Old Demon and the others in a flash.
"I need to leave temporarily to deal with some matters. The three of you will guard the Buried Dragon Secret Realm first. Moreover, I will leave a doppelganger behind. If anything happens to the Buried Dragon Secret Realm, you can communicate with me in time."
"Alright. Brother Ren, you can go ahead. We will guard this place…"
The Mad Daoist and Qin Daofu nodded solemnly. Hearing this, Lin Wudao did not waste any time. He waved his hand and immediately picked up an undead knight before quickly leaving..

The City of Sin.
Currently, the huge ancient city was silent.
At a glance, there was no noise at all. The air was filled with an intense killing aura.
!!
At this moment, tens of millions of cultivators were gathered outside the ancient mottled city gate. They were all kneeling, their eyes filled with endless fear and despair.
At the front of the crowd were people from the City Lord's Mansion, including Han Qingshan, Zhao Mang, and the Dari Demonic Sect's Li Xuanshan.
Anyone who was related to Lin Wudao or involved with him was suppressed and forced to kneel outside the city gate.
They had been in this state for almost a day.
The reason for this was all because of Shangqing Sword Palace's revenge.
Previously, in Heishui Ancient City, Lin Wudao first forced Wei Qingsi to death in front of countless cultivators. Then, he forcefully killed Lin Xuanzhen, a successive disciple of the Shangqing Sword Palace, as well as Yan Zhenshan and several other elders.
Lin Wudao's actions were undoubtedly a huge provocation to the Shangqing Sword Palace. For a moment, the Shangqing Sword Palace had become the laughingstock of the 12 regions in the Great World of Divine Desolation.
To take revenge, the Shangqing Sword Palace sent the Wind-lightning Swordsman Lü Qinghou and the Inner Sect Elder Fu Tianshan to suppress Lin Wudao with the supreme treasure of the Sword Palace.
Since they couldn't find Lin Wudao, Lü Qinghou and the others could only force Lin Wudao to show himself by holding the thousands of lives in the City of Sin hostage.
Now, more than half a day had passed, but Lin Wudao was still nowhere to be seen.
Above the city tower, a cold-faced man in embroidered clothes with an extraordinary temperament was sitting quietly on a bluestone. His eyes were slightly closed as he seemed to be resting. His entire body emitted a calm and dignified aura.
At the same time, beside him stood a red-robed old man with a fierce aura. His cold eyes were looking at the void outside the city as if he was looking for something. 𝑛𝗈𝒱𝔢𝓵𝓷𝔢xt.𝗰𝞸𝐦
"It's almost a day, but Lin Wudao hasn't appeared yet. If he doesn't appear, are you really going to kill all the innocent people in the City of Sin?"
After a long silence, Fu Tianshan asked.
Hearing this, Lü Qinghou, who was sitting cross-legged on the bluestone, hummed lightly. There was no change in his expression.
"When have you ever seen me go back on my word? There's still an hour before the day ends. If Lin Wudao doesn't show up, I'll kill 100,000 cultivators from the City of Sin. If he doesn't come tomorrow, I'll kill half of the population. If he doesn't come by the third day, I'll slaughter the entire City of Sin. At that time, they will all die because of Lin Wudao," Lü Qinghou said indifferently.
It was as if human lives were nothing in his eyes.
Hearing his words, Fu Tianshan frowned.
"This… That's not good, right? The Shangqing Sword Palace is a righteous sect. How can we do such a heartless thing as slaughtering a city? At that time, where would my Shangqing Sword Palace's dignity be?"
Heh… Dignity?
Lü Qinghou snorted coldly.
"In this world, the law of the jungle has always been the principle. Whoever has the biggest fist represents justice and truth. Dignity is not something that comes from words but from fists. Without great power, how can we talk about dignity?" He scoffed.
"Besides, the City of Sin is filled with a bunch of villains who have committed all kinds of crimes. All of them have heinous sins. I'm doing justice for the heavens by killing them. This is truly an act of justice. If they don't want to die, they'd better pray that their City Lord Lin Wudao will come back soon. If he returns late, my butcher knife does not discriminate," Lü Qinghou said indifferently.
From the beginning to the end, he didn't think he was wrong.
Seeing this, although Fu Tianshan didn't agree, he didn't say anything more.
His main purpose for coming here was to assist Lü Qinghou.
"Oh right, I heard that Lin Wudao is extraordinary. Since he dared to kill the disciples of the Shangqing Sword Palace in public, he must have something to rely on. What if…"
"Don't worry. The leader has already thought of what you are worried about. We have never underestimated Lin Wudao. To deal with him, the leader has given me two supreme treasures before we left. Even if Lin Wudao has extraordinary abilities, he will die without a burial place."
Supreme treasures?
Hearing this, Fu Tianshan's spirits were lifted.
"What is it?"
"Ha, you will know when Lin Wudao comes."
Lü Qinghou didn't want to say more.
After saying that, he closed his eyes and continued to rest.
Very quickly, an hour had passed.
"Reporting to the Wind-lightning Swordsman, the time is up."
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a disciple of the Shangqing Sword Palace came to Lü Qinghou and reported respectfully.
Hearing this, Fu Tianshan's heart trembled.
"According to what I said before, kill 100,000 people first."
"Yes, sir."
The disciple's heart trembled but he did not dare to disobey.
Boom!
He stood on the city gate tower and waved his hand gently. In an instant, a terrifying sword array spread out and was distributed in all directions. Immediately after, thousands of sharp sword energy erupted.
"Oh my god, is Shangqing Sword Palace for real?"
Outside the City of Sin, after hearing about the revenge of the Shangqing Sword Palace, a large number of cultivators had already gathered in the distant sky.
When they saw Lü Qinghou's order to attack, they instantly gasped and their faces revealed intense shock and fear.
"The Shangqing Sword Palace is too overbearing! Those living beings in the City of Sin are all living people!" Someone said angrily.
"Sigh, this Wind-Lightning Swordsman of the Shangqing Sword Palace is indeed too cruel and brutal. To think he would slaughter innocent creatures at the slightest discontent."
"Who should be blamed for this monstrous sin?"
"Lü Qinghou, of course."
"As the City Lord of the City of Sin, didn't Lin Wudao say that he would protect the living beings in the city? Where is he now?"
"Ugh, he is the culprit behind everything."
The earth-shattering discussions came from the crowd in the distance.
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
While the spectators were shocked and furious, the terrifying sword energy that was like a great river had already wreaked havoc among the people of the City of Sin.
Along with shrill screams and blood splattering all over the sky, large numbers of cultivators were killed by the sword array and turned into cold corpses.
In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of people had died.
Ha!
Seeing this, the spectators in the distance couldn't stay calm. They clenched their fists tightly, and their eyes were filled with intense pity and infinite sympathy.
Those were all innocent people. But now, because of Lü Qinghou's words, they died without a burial place.
"Clan leader, this Lü Qinghou of the Shangqing Sword Palace is too cruel. He even killed the innocent! Can we save them?"
In the vast sky in the distance was a huge ancient ship. A little girl in purple who was full of wisdom pulled on the clothes of an elegant man and begged in a low voice.
Next to her was a peerless and otherworldly woman in white who also frowned slightly.
However, a moment later, she shook her head.
"Ziyi, Lü Qinghou is a respected swordsman of the Shangqing Sword Palace. His cultivation has reached the peak of the Divine Mansion realm. With our strength, we can't save those people at all," The white-robed woman sighed. "But… Those people are the people of the City of Sin's City Lord Lin Wudao.
Since we're here to ask for Lin Wudao's help, why can't we help them? Based on my observations, the City of Sin has boundless Fate Energy. In contrast, the Fate Energy on Lü Qinghou of the Shangqing Sword Palace is withering. From this, it can be seen that Lü Qinghou is not worth worrying about. If we save Lin Wudao's people, wouldn't it be much easier to ask him for help in the future?" Xiao Ziyi said seriously.
Hearing this, the elegant man and the woman in white were stunned.
"Ziyi, are you sure?"
"Yes, yes," Xiao Ziyi nodded vigorously, "Clan leader, according to my observation, the Sword Palace's Fate Energy on Lü Qinghou is declining. I'm afraid that it won't be long before not only he dies, but the Shangqing Sword Palace behind him will also be destroyed." What? Shangqing Sword Palace was about to be destroyed?
Hearing this news, the scholarly man took a deep breath.
The Penglai Family was a descendant of the ancient divine race. In every generation, there would be a talented person who could observe the Fate Energy of all beings in the world.
In this generation of the Penglai family, Xiao Ziyi was favored by the heavens and awakened the bloodline of the divine race. Her Eye of Fate Energy could observe the changes in Fate Energy in the world. At the same time, it could be used to avoid disasters.
Since these words came from her mouth, they should not be fake. Before long, the Shangqing Sword Palace would be destroyed. Thinking of this, the scholarly man looked into the distance again.
"Our Penglai family never gets involved in the grudges and disputes of the human world. It is to avoid being tainted by karma and bring disaster to the family. However, since Ziyi said that the City of Sin has boundless Fate Energy, let's help it this time. That being said, our strength is limited. We are unable to save everyone. We can only save the people close to Lin Wudao."
As he spoke, the scholarly man took out a scarlet pill and swallowed it.
Rumble!
In an instant, his cultivation rose from the initial stage of the Divine Mansion realm to the peak stage of the Divine Mansion realm.
"Clan leader, look! Those people… they can't be killed!"
Just as the scholarly man was swallowing the pill, Xiao Ziyi's incredulous cry suddenly sounded in his ear.
When the man took a closer look, he was also stunned on the spot, his eyes wide open with shock.
There were eleven people below the city gate in the distance, and they could not be killed at all!

210 Divine Technique: Void Leap!
At the gates of the City of Sin, following Lü Qinghou's order, 100,000 living beings were slaughtered by the powerful sword array. Only eleven figures stood out in the open.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
...
The disciple of the Shangqing Sword Palace was controlling the sword array crazily, releasing a terrifying river of sword energy that fell on those people.
However, what shocked the onlookers was that no matter how the terrifying sword energy struck their bodies, the eleven figures were not injured at all.
At this moment, the eleven of them surrounded Han Qingshan and Zhao Mang tightly, protecting them from the sword energy.
"This... How is that possible?"
Seeing this shocking scene, Xiao Jinglun, the clan leader of the Penglai Family, widened his eyes in disbelief.
"Father, are those people Lin Wudao's subordinates? Their bodies are so terrifying that they can actually resist the Shangqing Sword Palace's Shangqing Sword Array. Although the grade of this sword array is a little low, the power it can unleash is enough to kill all living beings below the Divine Mansion realm. How did Lin Wudao train them? Such powerful and peerless physical bodies can probably even resist a Divine Mansion realm expert," Xiao Yiren said softly as a trace of shock appeared in her eyes.
Obviously, she did not expect Lin Wudao's eleven subordinates to have such terrifying physical bodies.
Even Lü Qinghou, who was sitting cross-legged on the city tower, was stunned when he saw the powerful bodies of the mourners.
But then, he frowned and his expression turned extremely gloomy.
"Hmph, Lin Wudao does have some tricks up his sleeves. To think he can nurture people with such powerful physical bodies. Looks like I've still underestimated him," Lü Qinghou sneered.
Boom!
The moment he finished speaking, he raised his hand and blasted out a wave of Shangqing sword energy, which landed fiercely on the bodies of the eleven mourners.
This attack of his was enough to kill even a final-stage Divine Mansion Realm expert.
However, what shocked him was that when his Shangqing sword energy landed on the bodies of the mourners, the seemingly fierce and terrifying attack still did not kill those ants.
They were still alive and well. Rather, there was not a scratch on them at all!
Seeing this, even Lü Qinghou gasped, and a hint of shock appeared in his eyes.
Fu Tianshan who was next to him was shocked as well.
"The physical bodies of these people have already reached an unimaginable level. I'm afraid they have surpassed the Divine Mansion realm," Fu Tianshan said with a dark face.
Hearing this, Lü Qinghou nodded in agreement. However, a hint of viciousness then appeared in his eyes.
"Hmph, so what if their physical body is strong? In the end, won't they still be at my mercy?"
After saying that, he abruptly stretched out his hand, and vast power surged out. In an instant, it turned into a huge hand in the void which then aggressively grabbed towards Han Qingshan and the others.
He wanted to first study the secrets of the mourners in detail. After that, since he could not kill them, he could only temporarily imprison them.
When he returned to the Shangqing Sword Palace, he would hand them over to the leader and the others.
If they could study the secrets of these mourners, it would be a great contribution. At that time, his identity and status would be greatly improved.
Thinking of this, Lü Qinghou's eyes were filled with yearning and longing.
However, things didn't go as he wished.
Rumble!
Just as Lü Qinghou's terrifying hand was about to land on Han Qingshan and the others, a strange figure suddenly walked out of the void. Then, under the former's nose, he forcefully took those people away.
It was Xiao Jinglun.
"Let's go!"
After successfully rescuing Han Qingshan and the others, Xiao Jinglun appeared on the ship in an instant with the help of the ancient divine technique passed down in the Penglai family.
"Void Leap Technique!" Xiao Jinglun waved his sleeves and disappeared into thin air with the entire ship before anyone could react.
What? Who did it?
This sudden and shocking change stunned the cultivators who were watching.
They did not expect that someone would still dare to go against the Shangqing Sword Palace.
Bang!
At the same time, Lü Qinghou, who was sitting cross-legged on the city tower, was enraged. His cold face was filled with gloominess and ferocity.
"Damn it!"
He was so angry that he almost crushed his bones.
Fu Tianshan, on the other hand, was frowning and deep in thought.
"That person just now seems to be... the Penglai family?"
Suddenly, Fu Tianshan said a name.
The Penglai Family?
Lü Qinghou gritted his teeth in hatred.
"Are you sure?"
"Well, judging from his figure, he looks like Xiao Jinglun, the clan leader of the Penglai Family. The secret technique that he used just now should be the legendary Void Leap Technique. Throughout the vast Great World of Divine Desolation, only the Penglai Family has mastered this magical secret technique. This is because, according to ancient legends, the Penglai family is the descendant of the ancient divine race. In every generation of the race, there are people with extraordinary talent," Fu Tianshan said slowly.
He had found this information on an ancient scroll. Originally, he thought it was just a legend. He did not expect to see it with his own eyes today.
"Humph, the Penglai Family, huh? To think they dared to take away people from the City of Sin in public. They are clearly going against the Shangqing Sword Palace! When this matter is over, I will definitely report this to the leader and destroy the Penglai Family," Lü Qinghou growled fiercely.
"Men. Kill another 200,000. I'm not in a good mood," He ordered coldly. 𝒏𝒪𝒱𝑒𝓁𝓷𝚎xt.𝑪𝚘𝕞
"Yes, sir."
Looking at Lü Qinghou's ferocious face, the disciple didn't dare to hesitate. He immediately wanted to use the Shangqing Sword Array again to kill the 200,000 living beings in the City of Sin.
Obviously, Lü Qinghou was venting his anger and displeasure on the people of the City of Sin.
"Sigh... I hope that the supreme treasure that the leader has given him will be able to suppress Lin Wudao. If an accident were to occur, it would be a situation of death."
Fu Tianshan looked worried.
At this moment, an inexplicable panic suddenly rose in his heart. It was as if something terrifying was about to descend.
In fact, his premonition was right.
Boom!
Just as the disciple left the city gate tower, a terrifying sword energy swept across the void of the City of Sin and landed on him.
"Ah!"
Accompanied by a shrill scream, the disciple of the Shangqing Sword Palace was blasted apart by the sword energy, and his body turned into a blood-colored powder that filled the sky.
"Who dares to ruin my plans?"
Lü Qinghou was furious to see the disciple killed. His ferocious eyes instantly swept across the surroundings, wanting to find the person behind the scenes.
Whoosh!
Just as he was in a ferocious rage, a mysterious young man suddenly strangely appeared in the void. His entire body was emitting monstrous killing intent.
"This is... Lin Wudao?"
Someone in the crowd exclaimed in shock when they saw the mysterious man who had suddenly appeared.
He was Lin Wudao?
As the voice rang out, Lü Qinghou and Fu Tianshan's cold eyes instantly landed on the man.
"Lin Wudao, I've been waiting for you. Come and die!" Lü Qinghou roared.
Boom!
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed. In an instant, an ancient black pagoda with a terrifying aura appeared above Lin Wudao's head.
It was wrapped in the mighty Imperial Dao pressure as it pressed down crazily.
This item was the Shangqing Sword Palace's Imperial Dao ancient spiritual weapon, the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower. It could suppress all Divine Strength realm cultivators.

211 You Know Nothing About My Trump Cards!
Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower?
Looking at the black pagoda that was pressing down crazily, Lin Wudao's eyes flashed with a faint surprise. He did not expect that the Shangqing Sword Palace would take out such a treasure to deal with him.
[Name: Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower]
[Level: Imperial Dao ancient spiritual weapon]
[Grade: High]
[Description: After casting it, it can turn into a powerful barrier of 10,000 feet. Any creature below the Divine Vein realm cannot escape and can only be slaughtered.]
...
"What a good treasure!"
Lin Wudao's spirit was lifted by the information that God's Spiritual Eye had sent back.
This thing was similar to his Heaven-Stabilizing Spell. However, the restriction was too great as it was only effective on creatures below the Divine Vein realm.
That being said, it could be said to be a treasure that could only be encountered by luck.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
...
At this moment, as Lü Qinghou took out the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower, tens of thousands of mysterious black lights poured down like a flood, turning into a powerful barrier.
It could not be broken by anyone who was not in the Divine Vein realm!
"You've calculated well. However, you want to kill me with just the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower? You're simply dreaming," Lin Wudao said with a scoff.
Since he dared to return to the City of Sin alone, how could he not be prepared?
Boom!
Just as the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower imprisoned him and Lü Qinghou took the opportunity to attack, an undead knight appeared out of thin air with a thought from Lin Wudao.
It emitted a cold and terrifying aura.
"This is... A Divine Vein realm puppet?"
Lü Qinghou turned pale with fright when he saw the undead knight that suddenly appeared.
He could feel the aura emitted by the mysterious puppet in front of him. It made him feel endless panic and fear. Just a glance at it made his soul tremble.
This puppet was at least in the Divine Vein realm!
Lü Qinghou was instantly terrified to the extreme.
Boom!
Just as he was about to escape, the silent undead knight suddenly came to life. Its cold eyes were emitting a terrifying blood-red light.
Then, the undead knight slashed out with its sword. In an instant, an extremely terrifying sword energy tore through the void. Under Lü Qinghou's incomparably terrified gaze, the sword sent the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower flying.
At the same time, Lü Qinghou, who suffered a huge impact, spat out a large mouthful of blood and fell thousands of feet away. His expression was extremely dispirited.
Although this was only the remnant power of the sword energy, Lin Wudao had spent 1,500 years of his lifespan raising this undead knight to the Divine Vein realm.
The remnant sword energy of the Divine Vein realm was not something that Lü Qinghou, who was only at the peak of the Divine Mansion realm, could withstand.
At this moment, his chest was pierced by the sword, and more than half of his life was gone.
Whoosh!
At this moment, Lin Wudao controlled the undead knight that was riding on its horse. In an instant, it arrived in front of Lü Qinghou.
The undead knight did not allow him to resist at all. It raised its hand and slashed at his neck with its sword.
Seeing this, Lü Qinghou was terrified and desperate.
"Lin Wudao, if I die, we will die together!"
Seeing that he could not escape from the undead knight, Lü Qinghou, who had fallen into endless savagery and madness at the last moment of his life, flipped his hand and took out an ancient and evil scroll.
Then, he aimed it at Lin Wudao.
"In my name, I curse Lin Wudao and deplete all his lifespan!" Lü Qinghou roared angrily.
Hmm? A curse?
Looking at the black scroll in Lü Qinghou's hand, Lin Wudao frowned slightly. He had experienced curses several times.
Boom!
Just as he was in shock, a strange and evil black light suddenly rushed out of the scroll and instantly entered his body.
"Lin Wudao, so what if you have a Divine Vein realm puppet? In the end, you will still be cursed to death by me. Hahaha!"
Seeing that the curse had succeeded, Lü Qinghou immediately burst into laughter.
However, his smile soon froze.
This was because when the Curse of Life landed on Lin Wudao, his lifespan was not depleted as Lü Qinghou had imagined.
Rather, Lin Wudao seemed to be fine as the curse hit him.
Furthermore, the other party's eyes that looked at him were filled with ridicule.
What Lü Qinghou didn't know was that Lin Wudao had been blessed by the heavens and was immune to all curses under the Great Emperor realm.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have just stood there and allowed himself to be cursed.
"This is impossible! How can the Curse of Life be ineffective? I don't believe it! This can't be real!" Lü Qinghou roared like a madman.
The trump card that he thought was foolproof was useless against Lin Wudao. He couldn't accept this result.
However, there were countless things that he did not know.
At the same time, the undead knight's greatsword slashed down fiercely.
Crack!
Accompanied by the sharp sound of bones cracking, Lü Qinghou's head rolled to the ground under the gaze of the onlookers in the distance.
"What? Lü Qinghou has been killed?"
The crowd was filled with disbelief.
"The City of Sin's City Lord Lin Wudao has such a terrifying trump card? Just how terrifying is that puppet?"
"At the very least, it should be in the Divine Strength realm."
"Lü Qinghou, that bastard, has finally been killed. It's just a pity that the 100,000 living beings in the City of Sin..."
"If only City Lord Lin could come back earlier..."
...
Many whispers came from the crowd in the distance.
Lin Wudao ignored them.
After putting Lü Qinghou's corpse into the system space, he started searching for Fu Tianshan.
Then, he saw Fu Tianshan steering a spiritual boat in a panic and fleeing from the City of Sin.
"Where did they go?"
10:22
"Go and capture Fu Tianshan. I want him alive."
Boom!
After receiving Lin Wudao's order, the undead knight immediately rode its warhorse and stepped into the air. It turned into a dazzling stream of light and disappeared into the sky.
Seizing this opportunity, Lin Wudao turned his gaze to the 100,000 dead people outside the city gate.
What made him frown was that he did not see Han Qingshan, Zhao Mang, and the others.
"Where did they go?"
With a heart full of doubts, Lin Wudao went to the City Lord's Mansion after collecting the corpses of the 100,000 living beings.
However, Han Qingshan and the others were still nowhere to be seen.
Bang!
Coincidentally, at this moment, the undead knight had returned, and in its hands was Fu Tianshan, who was extremely terrified.
"Speak, where did my subordinates go?"
Lin Wudao asked emotionlessly as he sat at the head of the hall.
Hearing this, Fu Tianshan didn't speak immediately.
"If I tell you, will you let me go?"
His heart was filled with fear.
Heh? Negotiating terms with him?
Lin Wudao's eyes turned cold.
"Great Soul-searching Technique!"
He didn't waste time with Fu Tianshan and used the Great Soul-searching Technique on him.
In an instant, Fu Tianshan's many memories appeared in his mind, including the scene when Han Qingshan and the others were rescued by Xiao Jinglun.
"The Penglai family? Haven't they always been indifferent to worldly affairs? Why did they appear in the City of Sin today and rescue Han Qingshan and the others? What is the purpose of this?"
Lin Wudao was puzzled.
He really could not think of the Penglai family's intentions and goals.
Fortunately, Han Qingshan and the others weren't killed by Lü Qinghou.
"Fortunately, I was prepared this time. Otherwise, I would have really failed. However, it's not bad to be able to obtain the corpses of two Divine Mansion powerhouses."
Bang!
With that, Lin Wudao took out the heaven burial bronze coffin and put the corpses of Lü Qinghou and Fu Tianshan into it. 𝒏𝒪𝒱𝑒𝓁𝓷𝚎xt.𝑪𝚘𝕞
[Ding!]
[You have collected Lü Qinghou's corpse and obtained the Imperial Dao ancient spiritual weapon, the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower. After being the system's tenfold enhancement, the quality of the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower has reached the highest level.]
[You have collected Fu Tianshan's corpse. Unfortunately, you didn't get anything...]
Two notifications sounded in his mind.
Soon after, with a thought, new information about the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower appeared in front of Lin Wudao.
[Name: Heaven Imprisoning Tower]
[Level: Imperial Dao ancient spiritual weapon]
[Quality: Highest]
[Description: Obtained from the tenfold enhancement of the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower. It can transform into a 10,000-foot-wide barrier. Even creatures in the Divine Vein realm cannot escape.]
...
"To think I obtained the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower. What a pleasant surprise," Lin Wudao smiled.
The highest-grade Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower was much more powerful than the high-grade one. To him, it was even more useful!
"With this supreme treasure, I can deal with the Shangqing Sword Palace. How dare they kill the citizens of the City of Sin? I must take revenge!"
Lin Wudao's eyes shone with a bright and fierce light.
At this moment, he already had an idea in his mind, which was to give them a taste of their own medicine.
Next, he was prepared to imprison everyone in the Shangqing Sword Palace and let them know what despair was.
At the same time, it could also publicize the prestige of the City of Sin.
Those who offended them must be killed!
With this thought in mind, Lin Wudao immediately left the City of Sin on a spiritual boat according to Fu Tianshan's memory.

212 Entrusted by Someone to Send a Gift!
Shangqing Sword Palace was located in the Qingcang Territory.
Their sect had been around for more than 9,000 years and was one of the top forces in the entire Qingcang Territory or even the Green Heaven Region. Their foundation and strength were incomparably strong.
At this moment, in the ancient and majestic Shangqing Hall, Leader Ji Beiming had gathered the grand elders of the Shangqing Sword Palace to discuss important matters of the sect. The atmosphere was solemn.
As the leader of the Shangqing Sword Palace, Ji Beiming had already reached the Divine Strength realm. Many of the grand elders present were also above the Divine Strength realm.
They represented most of the Shangqing Sword Palace's strength and foundation.
As they discussed important matters, everyone's faces were filled with seriousness as they expressed their opinions.
Thump!
Thump!
Thump!
...
However, just as everyone was discussing fervently, a Heavenly Nirvana realm disciple suddenly rushed into the Shangqing Hall.
"Leader, something bad has happened! The soul lamps of the Wind-Lightning Swordsman Lü Qinghou and the Eighth Elder Fu Tianshan have suddenly extinguished!" The disciple reported in panic.
What was that? Lü Qinghou and Fu Tianshan were dead?
Whoosh!
Upon hearing this news, the grand elders and Leader Ji Beiming's expressions changed drastically.
All of them were so shocked that they stood up from their seats.
The soul lamp was a very magical thing.
According to the Shangqing Sword Palace's tradition, any disciple who entered the sect would fuse a wisp of their soul into the soul lamp at the beginning of entering the Shangqing Sword Palace.
This way, if there was an accident, they would be able to know at the first moment.
The extinguishing of the soul lamp meant that this person had completely died.
Thinking of this, Ji Beiming's face darkened and he frowned. 𝒏𝒪𝒱𝑒𝓁𝓷𝚎xt.𝑪𝚘𝕞
"Leader, didn't you bestow two of the Shangqing Sword Palace's supreme treasures to Lü Qinghou before he left? How long has it been, and they're already dead? Is that Lin Wudao from the City of Sin really that powerful?" A grand elder frowned and said.
Ji Beiming shook his head.
"When Lü Qinghou left, not only did I bestow him the Imperial Dao ancient spiritual weapon, the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower, but I also gave him a terrifying Curse of Life. With these two things in hand, it's enough to kill any cultivator in the Divine Mansion realm! Especially since the Curse of Life is a terrifying existence that even those in the Divine Strength realm can't resist. Once one is hit by the curse, one's lifespan will deplete like flowing water. I thought that Lü Qinghou would be able to kill Lin Wudao effortlessly in the City of Sin. Who knew..."
As he spoke, Ji Beiming's frown deepened and his expression gradually turned ugly.
"Perhaps we have underestimated Lin Wudao. Since he dared to kill a successive disciple of the Shangqing Sword Palace in public, he must have something to rely on. Before we figure out his true strength, we really shouldn't have acted rashly. Now, Lü Qinghou and Fu Tianshan, two powerhouses in the Divine Mansion realm, have died. This is a great loss for the Shangqing Sword Palace. Moreover, we even alerted the enemy. Currently, it is likely that Lin Wudao has already prepared himself. It will be even more difficult to kill him," Another grand elder sighed.
He seemed to be dissatisfied with Ji Beiming's choice.
After all, back then, it was Ji Beiming who sent Lü Qinghou and Fu Tianshan to kill Lin Wudao.
But now, both of them have been annihilated.
This was not a good thing for the Shangqing Sword Palace. Whether it was their prestige or strength, both were damaged.
...
"To be honest, it was a good idea to let Lü Qinghou and Fu Tianshan go and test the waters. Their deaths aren't completely meaningless. At least, we've learned more about Lin Wudao's strength. Lin Wudao was able to kill Lü Qinghou and Fu Tianshan despite them possessing the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower and the Curse of Life. This shows that his strength has definitely reached the Divine Strength realm. He may have even possibly reached the Divine Vein realm," At this moment, a younger black-robed grand elder in the crowd spoke.
Hearing this, many people were silent, and some sneered.
Obviously, his words did not receive the approval of everyone.
"Leader, how do you plan to deal with this matter? Should we send more powerful people to suppress Lin Wudao in the City of Sin? If my guess is correct, Lin Wudao has the strength of the Divine Vein realm and above. I'm afraid that in the entire Shangqing Sword Palace, we can only ask the old ancestor to head over. Leader, don't tell me you want the old ancestor to go to the City of Sin, right?" The grand elder from before mocked.
In response, Ji Beiming snorted coldly.
"Let's put this matter aside for now. I will make a decision after I report to the old ancestor," He said in a deep voice.
After saying that, Ji Beiming simply ignored everyone's reaction and disappeared from the Shangqing Hall in a flash.
The Shangqing Sword Palace had existed for more than 9,000 years.
In such a large faction, there was bound to be infighting and all kinds of conspiracies. Although these old things were the grand elders and the pillars of the Sword Palace, they still could not avoid fighting for power.
As for Ji Beiming, the leader...
To be honest, many people were quite dissatisfied with him.
This was because back then, he did not rely on his own ability and strength to ascend to the position of leader. Rather, it was because he had received the favor of the old ancestor Lu Daoting that he became the leader.
In contrast, many talented disciples in the Sword Palace were not selected.
Only Ji Beiming relied on the strong recommendation of the old ancestor, Lu Daoting, to make an exception and become the leader.
As a result, many people were not convinced regarding this.
Therefore, for a long time, the relationship between Ji Beiming and the grand elders was not as harmonious as the outside world imagined. It was not uncommon for them to fight both openly and secretly.
If not for the fact that their old ancestor, Lu Daoting, was still around, they would have rebelled long ago.
Now, the deaths of Lü Qinghou and Fu Tianshan finally gave them an opportunity. Therefore, many people started to oppose him.
Ji Beiming, who knew that the masses were not convinced of his abilities, naturally would not argue with them about this.
In the Shangqing Sword Palace, his biggest backer was Lu Daoting. After this incident, he could only look for the latter to make a decision.
After all, the death of two Divine Mansion realm experts was not a small matter.
However, Lu Daoting was currently in seclusion to break through to a higher realm and would not see anyone.
This was exactly what Ji Beiming wanted as he could take the opportunity to delay this matter.
He believed that even Lu Daoting would support his actions.
...
However, although Ji Beiming's idea was good, the reality was cruel.
Whoosh!
Two days later, a spiritual boat descended upon the Shangqing Sword Palace as a dazzling stream of light streaked past.
On it stood a cold young man. It was Lin Wudao.
Revenge could not wait. The Shangqing Sword Palace had killed 100,000 of his people. This grudge could not be settled just like that.
"This is indeed a treasure land."
He stood tall in the void.
Lin Wudao looked around and sized the place up, his eyes revealing a hint of admiration.
The Shangqing Sword Palace's land was one of the most treasured places in the entire Green Heaven Region. There was a high-grade spiritual vein hidden underground. If one cultivated here, one would definitely be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort.
"Different grounds nurture different people. Indeed, there's some truth to this saying. No wonder those large factions chose to establish their sects in the treasured lands. Only when the land is good can one be outstanding."
He nodded to himself.
Whoosh!
Just as he looked up, two figures suddenly appeared in front of him.
Lin Wudao recognized one of them.
It was his spy in the Shangqing Sword Palace, Ziyang Sect's leader, Murong Shan. So he was guarding the Shangqing Sword Palace?
Lin Wudao frowned.
At the same time, Murong Shan was stunned when he saw Lin Wudao's familiar figure. He did not expect the latter to appear in the Shangqing Sword Palace.
"City..."
"Who are you? Why did you barge into the Shangqing Sword Palace?"
Just as Murong Shan was about to open his mouth to greet Lin Wudao, the disciple next to him suddenly questioned the latter first.
In response, Lin Wudao smiled faintly.
"I was entrusted by someone to send the Shangqing Sword Palace a gift."
A gift?
Hearing this, the disciple was obviously stunned.
He had been guarding the sect's gates for many years, but he had never met such a strange person.
However, since the other party was here to send gifts, he did not dare to offend him.
"May I know who entrusted you to send a gift to the Shangqing Sword Palace?" He asked carefully.
"Lü Qinghou and Fu Tianshan, of course. They asked me to give everyone in the Shangqing Sword Palace a great gift."
A great gift?
The gatekeeping disciple was shocked.
However, when Murong Shan heard this, he was so scared that his entire body was trembling.
According to his knowledge, Lin Wudao would not be so kind.
As expected, just as he finished speaking, the gatekeeping disciple's curiosity was also aroused.
"May I know what kind of gift you are giving us? It can actually benefit the entire Shangqing Sword Palace?"
"Naturally, it is to send you to your deaths," Lin Wudao said with a smile.
What? Send them to their deaths?
Boom!
Before the gatekeeping disciple could react, Lin Wudao waved his hand and took out the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower that had been strengthened tenfold.
In an instant, tens of thousands of black lights descended, covering a radius of 10,000 feet and enveloping the Shangqing Sword Palace.

213 Extreme Dao Ancient Spiritual Weapon, Shangqing Cauldron!
"How dare you provoke the Shangqing Sword Palace!"
Seeing Lin Wudao's sudden action, the gatekeeping disciple was instantly furious.
Saying this, he immediately pulled out an ancient sword and slashed at Lin Wudao crazily to show the prestige of the Shangqing Sword Palace.
However, although his thoughts were good, the reality was cruel.
Boom!
The moment he attacked, Lin Wudao shot out a great five elements' sword energy. The powerful force exploded the other party's body.
The disciple was only in the Heaven Capture realm and simply couldn't withstand Lin Wudao's attack.
In the end, even his bones were gone.
... 𝒏𝒪𝒱𝑒𝓁𝓷𝚎xt.𝑪𝚘𝕞
Boom!
Boom!
At the same time, as Lin Wudao took out the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower, the earth-shattering Imperial Dao power instantly swept in all directions like a flood.
In an instant, many powerful existences in the Shangqing Sword Palace were alarmed.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Sharp sounds of people traveling through the air rang out. The first to appear was the grand elders of the Shangqing Sword Palace, followed by Ji Beiming.
At this moment, their gazes landed on the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower and their eyes widened in disbelief.
"That's... The Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower?" Someone exclaimed in disbelief.
The Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower. That was the Imperial Dao supreme treasure of the Shangqing Sword Palace!
As far as they knew, wasn't this thing taken away by Lü Qinghou to suppress Lin Wudao in the City of Sin? Why would it suddenly appear here?
When their eyes swept past Lin Wudao, everyone was even more shocked.
In an instant, they seemed to have understood something.
"That person, he... Could he be Lin Wudao?"
"It should be."
"Lü Qinghou and Fu Tianshan are both dead. They were obviously killed by Lin Wudao. The Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower naturally fell into his hands."
"What should we do?"
"The Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower is a high-grade Imperial Dao ancient spiritual weapon. It can create a ten-thousand-foot barrier to imprison Divine Strength-realm cultivators. If we are trapped, wouldn't the Shangqing Sword Palace..."
"This fellow Lin Wudao wants to do the same to us!"
...
Everyone clenched their fists and roared.
At the same time, countless resentful gazes engulfed Lin Wudao.
"What do you want?"
Ji Beiming, the leader, suppressed the anger and shock in his heart and questioned Lin Wudao loudly.
Lin Wudao's expression was indifferent, and his gaze was extremely calm.
"What do I want? I'm here to send the Shangqing Sword Palace a gift, of course. Lü Qinghou slaughtered 100,000 citizens of the City of Sin. I have to settle this score. As the saying goes, it's impolite not to reciprocate. Since Lü Qinghou slaughtered 100,000 citizens of the City of Sin, I shall slaughter the entire Shangqing Sword Palace today to comfort the souls of those who died."
His cold and emotionless voice reverberated in all directions.
What was that? Slaughter the entire Shangqing Sword Palace?
The moment these words came out, the entire Shangqing Sword Palace was shocked.
Ji Beiming, the grand elders present, and the many disciples and sect members of the Shangqing Sword Palace were all in disbelief.
Ever since the Shangqing Sword Palace was founded, this was the first time someone dared to threaten them.
"Ha, how arrogant! Lin Wudao, you dare to dream of massacring my entire Shangqing Sword Palace by yourself? Don't tell me you're relying on this mere Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower?" Ji Beiming sneered coldly.
Hearing this, Lin Wudao nodded calmly, "You're right. I am indeed relying on the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower in my hands."
With that, one of the grand elders at the peak of the Divine Strength realm flipped his hand and took 10:36
out an ancient sword that was a high-grade Imperial Dao ancient spiritual weapon. Then, he Boom!
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Wudao raised his hand and pointed. In an instant, the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower suspended in the void suddenly shook. Then, an even more dazzling black light descended.
In the blink of an eye, it turned into a black barrier that was visible to the naked eye, enveloping the Shangqing Sword Palace.
Seeing this, Ji Beiming and the others were disdainful.
"Lin Wudao, you think too highly of yourself. Today, I will let you experience that the foundation of my Shangqing Sword Palace that has been passed down for nine thousand years is not something you can fight against at all!"
With that, one of the grand elders at the peak of the Divine Strength realm flipped his hand and took out an ancient sword that was a high-grade Imperial Dao ancient spiritual weapon. Then, he gathered all his strength and slashed at the barrier.
Rumble!
For a time, a huge explosion shook the world.
However, what shocked the black-robed elder was that his full-powered attack, coupled with the fact that he was holding a high-grade Imperial Dao ancient spiritual weapon, was actually unable to break through the barrier of the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower!
His attack only caused ripples to form on the barrier.
"This... How is that possible?"
Not only was the black-robed elder dumbfounded, but even Ji Beiming and the others who were watching from behind gasped.
Their expression was one of shock.
Ji Beiming's pupils constricted. He knew the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower the best. It was only a high-grade Imperial Dao ancient spiritual weapon. The array it formed could only imprison Divine Strength-realm cultivators.
The black-robed grand elder's attack had far exceeded the range of the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower's endurance. Logically speaking, the barrier should have been destroyed by this sword slash.
But now, it was completely intact.
This result shocked Ji Beiming, and at the same time, an inexplicable fear rose in his heart.
"No! There's something wrong with the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower," He growled.
Even without him saying anything, everyone present had already noticed that the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower seemed to have become even stronger.
"Could it be that Lin Wudao raised its grade?" Someone asked suspiciously.
"That should be the case."
"I didn't expect that a treasure of my Shangqing Sword Palace would be used against us. It's really the greatest joke in the world."
"This is the result of the wise leadership of the leader."
...
Everyone was discussing.
It seemed that they did not feel panic or fear about being imprisoned in the array.
"It seems like they have an even stronger trump card?" Lin Wudao sneered.
Boom!
He raised his hand and pointed. The undead knight that he had leveled up to the Divine Vein realm instantly passed through the barrier and arrived in front of Ji Beiming and the others.
"Kill everyone here."
Rumble!
With a command, the silent undead knight woke up in an instant. Then, it waved the giant sword in its hand and slashed at Ji Beiming and the others.
"Ah!"
The first to bear the brunt was Ji Beiming. He did not expect the undead knight to be so terrifying. Just as he was about to block it, the terrifying sword energy had already landed on his body.
Soon after, under everyone's terrified gazes, Ji Beiming was cut in half by the sword.
"This...!"
"A Divine Vein realm puppet? "
"Hurry up and report to the old ancestor! Take out the Extreme Dao weapon to suppress this bastard Lin Wudao!"
...
Everyone panicked.
In an instant, they were completely at a loss.
However, the undead knight didn't care about that. It only knew how to carry out Lin Wudao's orders.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
As waves of terrifying sword energy were swung out, another grand elder at the Divine Strength realm, as well as many disciples and sect members, were forcefully killed.
This scene scared everyone out of their wits.
"How dare you, bastard!"
Just as the undead knight was about to start a massacre, a deep and hoarse voice suddenly came from the deepest part of the Shangqing Sword Palace.
Immediately after, Lin Wudao saw an ancient black cauldron cut through the void and smashed into the barrier.
Bang!
Accompanied by an ear-piercing explosion, the barrier formed by the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower shattered.
Hmm? An Extreme Dao ancient spiritual weapon?
Lin Wudao narrowed his eyes and his gaze landed on the ancient black cauldron.
[Name: Shangqing Cauldron]
[Level: Extreme Dao ancient spiritual weapon]

...
God's Spiritual Eye scanned the item, and a lot of information was immediately sent back.
After reading it, even Lin Wudao, who had seen many Extreme Dao treasures and divine items, could not help but have a glimmer of light in his eyes.
"It's indeed a good treasure. There is only a difference of one word between an Extreme Dao ancient spiritual weapon and an Extreme Dao spiritual weapon, but the difference is immeasurable. No wonder the Shangqing Sword Palace could stand for 9,000 years. The Shangqing Cauldron must have contributed greatly," Lin Wudao praised.
Whoosh!
Just as he was sizing up the Shangqing Cauldron, a powerful rainbow light suddenly rushed out from the deepest part of the Shangqing Sword Palace and finally turned into an elder in green who stood in midair.
His entire body emitted a powerful aura.
"Greetings, old ancestor!"
"Old Ancestor, please help the Shangqing Sword Palace to kill Lin Wudao!"
"The old ancestor is here! We are saved!"
...
Many disciples and sect members knelt and begged.
The appearance of the green-robed elder had brought them hope for survival.
Lu Daoting? The early stage of the Divine Vein realm?
Lin Wudao's lips curled into a cold smile as he looked at the green-robed elder in front of him.
"Continue killing, don't leave a single one alive," He ordered the undead knight.
Obviously, he did not put Lu Daoting in his eyes.
"Bastard! You are extremely arrogant!"
Seeing Lin Wudao's attitude and actions, Lu Daoting's eyes turned fierce. Without any hesitation, he raised his hand and activated the Shangqing Cauldron, suppressing the undead knight.

214 Kill All of Them, Leave None Alive!
Boom!
As an Extreme Dao ancient spiritual weapon, the power that erupted from the Shangqing Cauldron was extremely terrifying.
With the release of Extreme Dao power, the void in a radius of 100,000 feet was shaken. All living beings here seemed to be suppressed and knelt on the ground.
They were trembling.
Under the impact of the Extreme Dao power, large areas of palaces and halls began to shatter and then collapse.
Even Lin Wudao, who was watching from afar, was affected.
If it wasn't for the fact that his physical body was strong enough, he probably wouldn't have been able to remain standing.
At this moment, he had a preliminary understanding of the terrifying power of the Extreme Dao ancient spiritual weapon.
However, compared to the terrified members of the Shangqing Sect, the undead knight was not affected by the Shangqing Cauldron, perhaps because of its special material as a puppet.
Boom!
When Lu Daoting activated the Shangqing Cauldron to attack crazily, the undead knight raised the huge sword in its hand and slashed fiercely.
In an instant, a shocking sword energy swept across the void and landed on the Shangqing Cauldron.
"Ah!"
With the release of the Extreme Dao power, the sword energy of the undead knight was forcefully obliterated by the Shangqing Cauldron, but it also successfully blocked the terrifying attack.
It was not affected at all.
On the other hand, Lu Daoting was forced to retreat more than ten steps before he could stabilize his body under the impact of the Extreme Dao power of the Shangqing Cauldron. A line of scarlet blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
On the ground, his footprints sunk more than half a foot deep.
It was a shocking sight.
"What?"
"The old ancestor is actually no match for that puppet?" 𝑵𝓞𝐕𝗲𝑙𝒩𝖾xt.𝓬𝗈𝐦
"This... How is this possible? Our old ancestor has already reached the Divine Vein realm, and he has the Extreme Dao weapon, Shangqing Cauldron. How can he not be able to suppress a puppet?"
"Just where did Lin Wudao find this thing?"
...
Everyone was shocked.
The first collision between Lu Daoting and the undead knight allowed them to see the gap between the two.
Even though Lu Daoting had an Extreme Dao weapon, he was still suppressed by the powerful attack of the undead knight. He was no match for the latter at all.
"This puppet's combat strength is comparable to the perfection-stage Divine Vein realm?"
At this moment, Lu Daoting also widened his eyes in disbelief.
No matter how he thought about it, he could not understand where Lin Wudao got the puppet from. Could it be that there was a mysterious and unknown power behind him?
Thinking of this, Lu Daoting's heart trembled.
"Daoist Lin, I think this might be a misunderstanding. We..."
"Continue killing."
Lu Daoting was worried that Lin Wudao had a powerful faction backing him. Moreover, with his cultivation and strength, he was not a match for the undead knight in front of him.
Therefore, he wanted to shake hands and make peace.
Unfortunately, Lin Wudao wouldn't give him the chance.
Boom!
...
Under his orders, the undead knight kept waving the huge sword in its hand. In an instant, a shocking sword energy tore through the air and carried a peerless power as it charged toward Lu Daoting.
"Damn it!"
Seeing that Lin Wudao did not buy his words, Lu Daoting was furious and panicked.
Buzz!
Knowing that he was no match for the undead knight, he activated the Shangqing Cauldron with a secret technique and suspended it above his head. Immediately after, the Shangqing Cauldron cast down tens of thousands of rays of light, firmly protecting him within.
Rumble!
No matter how terrifying the attacks of the undead knight were, they were unable to shake the solid barrier.
"Lin Wudao, I admit that I'm not a match faced with your puppet's battle prowess. However, I'm afraid it's impossible for you to rely on it to kill me. Instead of wasting time like this, why don't you and I sit down and talk slowly? I heard that Lü Qinghou slaughtered 100,000 citizens of Sin City. This is the wrongdoing of my Shangqing Sword Palace. We are willing to apologize and compensate for it. Let's write off all our past grudges. How about we become friends from now on?"
...
Lu Daoting said with a frown as he hid behind the barrier of the Shangqing Cauldron.
This was already the greatest concession he could make.
However, although his plan was good, Lin Wudao was still unmoved.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Under Lin Wudao's orders, the undead knight continued to attack with all its might.
Seeing this, Lu Daoting's expression also became vicious.
"Lin Wudao, do you really want to perish together with my Shangqing Sword Palace? That would not benefit anyone!"
He still wanted to continue fighting for the Shangqing Sword Palace's survival, but what he got in response was Lin Wudao's cold smile.
"Perish together? Lu Daoting, you think too highly of yourself. What qualifications do you have to negotiate with me? To me, you are just meat on a chopping board. Since you are wrong, you must pay the price for your actions."
Lin Wudao's cold and emotionless voice rang out.
Hearing this, Lu Daoting's expression turned extremely ugly.
At the same time, the panic in his heart also became increasingly intense.
He was only at the early stage of the Divine Vein realm. It was already very difficult for him to control the Shangqing Cauldron. After all, this was an Extreme Dao ancient spiritual weapon.
It was not something he could completely control with his current cultivation. At this rate, he would definitely die of exhaustion in less than fifteen minutes!
The more he thought about it, the more terrified Lu Daoting was.
"Lin Wudao, I will give you this Shangqing Cauldron. I don't dare to ask for anything else. I only ask that you let the other innocent disciples of my Shangqing Sword Palace go. How about it?"
At this moment, Lu Daoting made a new request.
Lin Wudao turned a deaf ear.
Boom!
Finally, when the undead knight swung out the ninety-ninth wave of sword energy, Lu Daoting could no longer hold on. His entire body was suppressed to death by the Extreme Dao power that erupted from the Shangqing Cauldron.
Although the Extreme Dao weapon was powerful, it was not something anyone could wield.
It was obvious that Lu Daoting didn't have that ability.
"Old ancestor!"
"This... How was this possible? The old ancestor is... Dead?"
"Old ancestor!"
...
Lu Daoting's death made everyone in the Shangqing Sword Palace grieve endlessly.
Similarly, they were also extremely panicked and terrified.
Thump!
Thump!
Thump!
...
Under the threat of death, a large number of disciples and sect members knelt in front of Lin Wudao without any regard for their dignity and face.
"Please spare our lives, City Lord! I'm willing to serve you as my master!"
"Please spare our lives, City Lord!"
"We are willing to follow the City Lord! We hope that the City Lord will show mercy!"
...
Everyone kowtowed heavily.
Seeing this, Lin Wudao's indifferent gaze swept across the entire Shangqing Sword Palace. There was no expression on his face.
"If you had known this would happen, why do it? Kill them all."
Boom!
Lin Wudao took out the Great Desolate Heaven Imprisoning Tower again and enveloped all the disciples and sect members of the Shangqing Sword Palace. Then, he gave an order to the undead knight.
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
...
The undead knight would never go against Lin Wudao's orders.
It simply waved the big sword in its hand, and while riding the wild warhorse under it, rampaged ...
through the Shangqing Sword Palace. Wherever it passed, all the living beings were killed.
"Lin Wudao, I curse you to die a horrible death!"
"Why? Why won't you let us go?"
"Sob, sob, sob, I don't want to die!"
...
Sounds of horror and despair, as well as curses shook the sky.
At this moment, Lin Wudao could clearly feel a large number of hateful gazes on him. They wanted to swallow him alive and then grind his bones into ashes.
However, he was totally unperturbed. He didn't have any sympathy or pity.
As the undead knight slaughtered the Shangqing Sword Palace's people, he followed and kept the corpses on the ground in the heaven burial bronze coffin or the Corpse-refining Furnace.
In less than an hour, the 8,000 sect members of the Shangqing Sword Palace were all slaughtered. Not a single one was left alive.
"Ha!"
Murong Shan, who was watching from afar, gasped as he looked at the scene of the purgatory with mountains of corpses and seas of blood. His eyes were filled with unprecedented shock.
He was frightened by Lin Wudao's brutality and ruthlessness.
"This is too terrifying. The Shangqing Sword Palace is a famous force in the Green Heaven Region. Yet in the blink of an eye, it was destroyed? The City Lord, he... He's actually so terrifying?"
Murong Shan's heart trembled.
In his heart, his respect for Lin Wudao had reached an unprecedented level.
...
To be honest, Lin Wudao was not interested in Murong Shan's reaction.
"Go and retrieve all the resources in the Shangqing Sword Palace's treasury for me."
Suddenly, his calm voice entered Murong Shan's ears.
"Yes, sir!"
Murong Shan did not dare to hesitate. He immediately rushed toward the treasury at his fastest speed.
To make things easier for him, Lin Wudao even sent the undead knight over.
As for himself, he came to the Shangqing Hall and began to count his gains this time.
