Chapter 260: Chapter 257: Middle Region_1
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM...
Seeing their efforts were effective, Huo Qubing and the others attacked frenziedly. The radiance of the ’Immortal Prison Array’ gradually dimmed, already showing signs of shattering.
Hmm? Looking at the swaying formation, Old Ancestor Tianqilin frowned slightly. Someone is still attacking the formation? Could it be the main body of the soul avatar I just shattered? As he thought of this, his hand movements paused for a moment!
And it was precisely at this moment that Huo Qubing and the others managed to blast an opening in the ’Immortal Prison Array,’ right next to Qin Wudao.
"Quick, go!"
Qin Wudao’s eyes lit up, and he flew towards the opening. Simultaneously, he activated a spatial transmission talisman, creating a wormhole above him that erupted with a powerful suction, pulling everyone away.
Old Ancestor Tianqilin rushed out of the formation and saw the already closed wormhole, his expression dark. He realized he had been tricked!
"Ancestor!"
Emperor Kylin flew over, lowering his proud head.
"Useless! Why didn’t you station anyone at the entrance of the secret realm? Now that someone has breached it, with your pathetic capabilities, even a pig could lead the sect better than you!"
Old Ancestor Tianqilin scolded furiously, venting all his anger on Emperor Kylin before storming off—not to return to his seclusion, but towards the main peak.
Clearly, this matter wasn’t over!
"Damn you, Qin Wudao! This Emperor swears I will tear you to a thousand pieces!"
After being berated, Emperor Kylin didn’t dare complain about Old Ancestor Tianqilin. Instead, he directed all his hatred towards Qin Wudao. His body seethed with a murderous aura, causing the temperature in the void to plummet.
"Your Majesty, what should we do with these people?"
Great Elder Lin WuFeng flew over, pointed at Shu Qingyun and the others, and asked.
Now that Qin Wudao had escaped, should they still kill these people?
"Relay my orders! The Qin Dynasty Divine Court harbors malicious intentions, seeking to assassinate the prodigies of the East Border and scheming to massacre the major powers! The Kylin Sacred Ground valiantly resisted, not hesitating to draw upon its deepest reserves, and only then managed to repel the Qin Dynasty Divine Court!"
After a moment of contemplation, Emperor Kylin decided to tarnish the reputation of the Qin Dynasty Divine Court.
No matter what, the fact that I bullied those weaker than me, seized the Kunlun Supreme’s inheritance, and used the Soul-searching Seal must not be leaked. Otherwise, the prestige the Kylin Sacred Ground has built over several eras will collapse completely. The Qin Dynasty Divine Court is undoubtedly the best scapegoat!
"As you command!"
Lin WuFeng, momentarily stunned, waved his right hand.
The Kylin Sacred Ground’s army reassembled, launching another attack, preparing for a massacre.
"Damned Kylin Sacred Ground, I curse you all to die horrible deaths!"
"When I get out of here, I will expose your crimes to the world, so that billions will despise you!"
"..."
The cultivators from the major powers plunged from hope to despair once more. They glared at the aggressive Kylin Sacred Ground army, their faces contorted with resentment as they roared.
Among the crowd, only one person remained calm!
"Stop!"
Just then, the heavens and earth roiled. Outside the Kylin Sacred Ground, a middle-aged man in a purple robe appeared. He exuded a supreme, boundless aura, as if he could push through all of antiquity!
With a single word from him, time and space seemed to freeze!
The soldiers of the Kylin Sacred Ground’s army were horrified to find themselves seemingly immobilized, unable to move a muscle. Even Emperor Kylin couldn’t budge.
On the main peak, Old Ancestor Tianqilin, who had just sat down to rest, leaped up from his chair. He stared at the outside world in terror, beads of sweat dotting his forehead, and he gulped repeatedly.
An expert! An absolute expert! Before that purple-robed man, I’m like an ant! An Eternal Great Emperor? Or a Ten-thousand-year Emperor?
"You have all gone too far. As punishment, I shall destroy your sect’s gates today!"
The purple-robed man spoke indifferently, his eyes shooting out endless murderous intent. He slapped down with his right hand, forming a sky-covering palm print. It carried wind, rain, lightning, and fire, imbued with world-destroying power!
WHOOSH!
Even before the palm print arrived, everyone in the Kylin Sacred Ground, from the outer sect disciples to Old Ancestor Tianqilin himself, was forced to prostrate on the ground, looking utterly wretched!
Despair filled all their hearts!
BOOM!
Perhaps sensing the imminent destruction of their sect, the ancient statue on Qilin Square glowed with red light. A phantom figure flew out from it, riding a Fire Kylin and wielding a Kylin Sword, as it charged towards the palm print.
The sword momentum was incredibly fierce, in no way inferior to the purple-robed middle-aged man’s attack!
"Founder!"
Emperor Kylin looked up, and seeing the crimson phantom, his expression turned to one of excitement.
This phantom was none other than the founder of the Sacred Ground, Ancestor Kylin. When he perished, he had infused his life’s energy into the statue, hoping it could protect the sect at a critical moment!
BANG!
The moment the two attacks collided, the Sword Qi shattered.
The figure of Ancestor Kylin began to fade, eventually dissolving into countless motes of light and vanishing completely.
CRACK!
On Qilin Square, the statue, venerated as a sacred artifact by countless disciples of the Kylin Sacred Ground, turned dull and lightless. It then collapsed with a rumble, shattering into countless pieces.
RUMBLE!
The palm print’s power, undiminished, landed on the ’Immortal Prison Array,’ causing the formation to twist and crack. After holding on for a few breaths, it spectacularly shattered and disintegrated.
The solid square was split in two!
The few remaining palace halls collapsed with a thunderous crash!
Finally, the palm print landed on the main gates of the Kylin Sacred Ground, obliterating them. The residual, rampant energy from the palm print left behind a mark thousands of feet deep, which would persist for ten thousand years.
After doing all this, the purple-robed middle-aged man descended before Jade Snow Gentleman, bowed respectfully, and said, "Little Princess, your subordinate has arrived late!"
"Let’s go. This place isn’t fun!"
Jade Snow Gentleman shook her small head, glanced around, and said unhappily.
She had come to the Eastern Continent primarily to obtain the Kunlun Supreme’s inheritance and deliver the secret to immortality to her Imperial Father. She hadn’t expected Qin Wudao to be the one to obtain it.
The purple-robed middle-aged man nodded with a smile, tore open the void, and departed with Jade Snow Gentleman.
"We should run too!"
Shu Qingyun, Wei Gongheng, Bear Longing, and the others seized the opportunity and hastily flew out of the Kylin Sacred Ground.
This time, no one from the Kylin Sacred Ground tried to stop them. They were all terrified and hadn’t yet recovered their senses. Many stared at the shattered statue, their eyes glazed and vacant.
On the main peak, Old Ancestor Tianqilin gazed at the sky and sighed!
He saw the dense Fortune rapidly ebbing away. It had thinned by nearly thirty percent. It was clear how devastating the impact of this incident was on the Kylin Sacred Ground.
「 」
"Haha, I knew it! The Ziwei Star is certainly not from the Kylin Sacred Ground!"
In a bamboo house in the Middle Region, the Old Blind Man gesticulated wildly in his excitement. The events of the day were simply too thrilling; the foremost power of the East Border had its prestige repeatedly trampled.
However, this had nothing to do with him!
The Old Blind Man quickly closed the window, gathered his useful belongings in the house, locked the door, and then easily passed through the barrier Emperor Kylin had set up, disappearing deep into the bamboo forest.
Only the Old Blind Man’s voice remained, echoing in the void.
"The divination reveals that the Ziwei Star has now gone to the Middle Region. This old man is going to verify if Qin Wudao is in the Middle Region!"
「 」
Countless miles away, in a forest, all life was reawakening. Numerous pairs of animals were diligently occupied with the propagation of their species.
Suddenly, a rift tore open in the void, and dozens of figures tumbled out, sprawling chaotically.
The huge commotion startled innumerable animals, causing them to hastily end their activities and scatter in all directions.
"Your Majesty, are you alright?"
Li Ru was the first to stand up, intending to go to Qin Wudao’s side and help him up.
"Check how many of us are left!"
Qin Wudao waved him off, struggling to his feet. Seeing that their numbers were clearly diminished, he ordered gravely.
