Chapter 1628
The disciples at the Nascent Soul Realm were still struggling desperately—some of them summoned their natal Gu worms, which transformed into blood wings, attempting to tear apart the void.
Some crushed the life-saving jade slips passed down through their families, causing a distorted spatial ripple to explode around them.
Even more extreme were those who burned their life essence, transforming into a dazzling red light that rushed towards the outer edge of the starry sea.
However, under the influence of Chen Xuan's divine sense, which covers an area of tens of thousands of miles, these methods were like ants trying to shake a tree, futile and laughable.
Disciples at lower levels, such as those in the Myriad Manifestations Realm and the Foundation Establishment Realm, don't even have the qualifications to tear through the void; they can only rely on their physical strength to run wildly along the mountain path.
They trampled over the corpses of their fellow disciples, smashing through the ancient white jade railings, like frightened wild beasts being driven away, panting heavily, their eyes filled with nothing but the madness of survival.
Chen Xuan's gaze swept over the low-level disciples below, who were swarming like ants, but he did not kill them all in one thought.
The sins of these small fry are not worth his attention. He turned to look at the five women, Yu'er and the others, who were standing quietly in the void. He transmitted his thoughts to them with a gentle breeze: "The task of cleaning up the remaining evil is now in your hands."
Upon hearing this, the five women swayed slightly and nodded in unison.
"These disciples at the Myriad Manifestations Realm and the Foundation Establishment Realm, though their sins haven't condensed into sinful blood light, are all burdened with inky sinful turbidity." Chen Xuan's voice carried a hint of indifference. "After the more than one million sins are eradicated, you may be able to generate faint light of merit. Although it is far from golden light, it can accumulate little by little and will surely be of great use in the future."
He paused, his gaze sweeping across the distant mortal continent, which had been ravaged by the Gu God Sect for millennia: "The beings of this world have suffered for far too long. After this is over, we can leave behind some rudimentary methods of divine and demonic body refinement in the mortal cities to help them survive this calamity."
"As for me..." Chen Xuan looked up at the heavens and said calmly, "I need to go into seclusion to cultivate and try to cultivate the third strand of merit immortal energy. If I succeed, I should be able to break into the Void Reversal Realm within twenty years."
Yu'er and the other five women curtsied, their voices clear and sharp like jade striking each other: "Husband, rest assured, we will use our sins as the yardstick to eradicate the remaining evildoers and leave no one behind."
As soon as he finished speaking, five streaks of light shot out from the void, like five bolts of lightning slicing through the darkness, and swooped down.
Five colors of robes—pink, cyan, purple, white, and red—unfurled in the starlight, instantly encircling the low-ranking disciples who were scattering in all directions.
Surrounded by celestial aura, the five women's casual strikes were comparable to those of a four or five hundred thousand-year-old rogue immortal. Wherever their figures passed, sword energy and magic intertwined, and those disciples burdened with sins didn't even have time to scream before they perished and their souls vanished.
As the five Daoist partners fled to search for the remnants of the Gu God Sect, the airspace returned to silence, leaving only Chen Xuan and Bai Li standing facing each other.
"Master is biased!" Bai Li suddenly puffed out her cheeks and turned her little face to the side, her voice muffled, "Sister Yu'er and the others all have missions, so they left me behind!"
Chen Xuan chuckled and flicked her smooth forehead with his finger: "It was the master's oversight."
He ran his fingertips through her hair, his tone indulgent, "You go too. The sinful and turbid energy of these remnants will be perfect for you to condense your 'pure spiritual energy.' Once I cultivate my third strand of immortal energy, I will teach you even more powerful techniques."
Bai Li's eyes lit up instantly, like two sparkling glass beads. She suddenly pounced into Chen Xuan's arms, planted a kiss on his cheek, and said in a crisp voice, "Then I'm going, Master! I promise I'll be faster than Sister Yu'er and the others!"
Before she finished speaking, Bai Li had already transformed into a silver rainbow and shot out. Wherever the silver rainbow passed, even the air seemed to be tinged with a sweet fragrance.
Chen Xuan shook his head helplessly as he looked in the direction she disappeared. He then concealed his aura, and the Northern Darkness Sword and the Azure Lotus Immortal Qi quietly disappeared into his body. His figure was like a feather, slowly falling towards the Dragon Vein Mountain below.
The Heavenly Dao Gu God Sect has been operating for 200,000 years, and this land of dragon veins has long been carved into a colossal entity.
The palace complex is built against the mountain, with white jade steps leading from the foot of the mountain to the clouds. The glazed tiles gleam coldly in the setting sun, and the bronze wind chimes hanging under the eaves are long rusted, with only the dusty runes trembling slightly in the wind. If you look at this scene alone, it really does have the grandeur of a sacred immortal site.
