“Rebellious son—!”
To the side, the abdicated former Sect Master, Lu Cangtian, who was pinned down and unable to move, completely lost his mind as he watched his most beloved grandson get stomped to pieces like a watermelon right before his eyes.
“I will fight you to the death!”
Lu Cangtian let out an inhuman, aged roar.
He forcibly detonated the ten-thousand-year-old origin deep within his immortal soul, breaking free from the vacuum suppression of the Martial Soul bodyguard by sheer force.
His skin split open instantly, and the bones inside his body let out overloaded popping sounds. Carrying the final pride and despair of a peak Eleventh Realm grand cultivator, his hands transformed into a flurry of sharp blades as he lunged frantically toward Su Yueli's chest.
With this strike, he burned his entire life force. Even a Twelfth Realm expert would have to temporarily retreat in the face of such raw power.
However, Su Yueli did not even turn her head.
She merely shook her right foot with a hint of disgust, flicking off the blood of Lu Feiyu that stained it. Then, she casually threw a backhand punch.
Bang!
Su Yueli's fist tore a pure white vacuum channel through the air. The terrifying wind pressure was so intense that it pulverized the surrounding scattered white jade fragments into nothingness.
The punch landed squarely on Lu Cangtian's lunging body.
There was no explosion.
Because the power was so highly concentrated, the moment her fist made contact with his flesh, the body of this peak Eleventh Realm grand cultivator was instantly dissolved and obliterated by the violent physical force.
Boom!
In mid-air, Lu Cangtian was instantly reduced to a fine mist of shredded flesh and bone, which rained down over the pile of high-grade spirit stones and magic treasures, leaving behind not a single trace of life.
The Cangyun Sect.
Three generations of the Lu family.
With this, all of them had been physically delivered to the afterlife, their entire household neatly wiped out.
Exhale...
As she exhaled this breath of turbid air, she felt her Niwan Palace clear up completely. The deep-seated resentment that had weighed heavily on her heart for years, which even the heavenly tribulations could not wash away, vanished entirely at this moment.
At this instant, her Myriad Tribulations Realm physical body seemed to become even more refined and flawless due to the completion of her mind and soul.
She walked forward, bent down, and carefully retrieved the slightly cracked, dark-gold martial bone from Lu Feiyu's chest cavity, slipping it into her sleeve.
“Father, Mother, your daughter has avenged you.”
Su Yueli murmured to herself.
However, before she could even retrieve Xiaohei, which was trembling restlessly between her fingers, thirsting for more blood—
Suddenly.
Rumble—!
An earth-shattering roar, powerful enough to collapse several of the hundred and eight spiritual peaks of Mount Cangyun, suddenly erupted!
It detonated violently from the deepest depths of the Cangyun Sect, within the ten-thousand-yard forbidden grounds that had been shrouded in dense black mist for thousands of years!
In an instant, the void there was completely reduced to pitch-black nothingness.
Wisps of ink-black yin-death energy gushed frantically from the cracks of the forbidden grounds like a bursting dam, instantly dyeing the entire sky a bizarre, ink-like shade.
A terrifying cultivation pressure capable of destroying heaven and earth, which even surpassed the limits of the Twelfth Realm and faintly touched the threshold of the Thirteenth Realm, erupted.
At this moment, carrying an ancient and decaying aura that had slept for thousands of years—
It awakened violently from deep beneath the earth.
“Which unworthy descendant... has disturbed this Ancestor's slumber?!”
An ancient, cold voice rumbled like thunder across the sky above Mount Cangyun.
Su Yueli's figure paused slightly. She slowly raised her head, looking in the direction of the forbidden grounds through her white, carved ghost mask.
In her hand, Xiaohei's weapon patterns trembled more and more violently.
The true old monster.
He was finally willing to crawl out of his coffin.
Boom!
Immediately after, the dark mountain range deep within the forbidden grounds split open with a crash. A massive rift stretching tens of thousands of yards spread frantically along the ground, like a giant abyssal mouth trying to swallow Mount Cangyun whole.
Rocks pierced the air, and dust blotted out the sun.
Amidst the flying debris, a massive divine coffin made of ten-thousand-year glacial dark iron and covered in dark-gold ancient talismans could no longer withstand the terrifying power accumulated inside.
With a tearing screech, the divine coffin blew apart.
Fragments of dark iron shot out like a torrential downpour, riddling the surrounding towering cliffs with countless holes.
What rolled out was not immortal qi, but a dark gray death energy and corpse qi so dense it was almost tangible.
Wherever this deathly energy passed, the once-hard rocks instantly turned to sand, and the tiny creatures in the soil were vaporized into wisps of smoke before they could even scream.
Rustle, rustle.
Soft footsteps echoed from within the dust.
A withered, shriveled old man, radiating an aura of decay and death, stepped onto the rubble and slowly walked out.
His skin clung tightly to his bones like a skeleton wrapped in human flesh. His burial shroud was already decayed and tattered, and with every step he took, the sound of grinding joints could be heard.
Yet with every step he took, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth retreated frantically.
The late stage Thirteenth Realm!
This was a terrifying cultivation level that stood at the absolute peak of this world.
Throughout his thousand-year seclusion, he had been using a secret technique to prolong his breath, attempting to seize a fleeting opportunity for a breakthrough amidst his endless slumber.
Today, however, his slumber was completely shattered.
The old man raised his head slightly, his deeply sunken, once-lifeless eyes slowly scanning his surroundings.
As his divine sense swept across the ruins of the Cangyun Sect, the surrounding air suddenly froze.
Before his eyes lay a field of severed limbs and broken bodies. The main sect hall had collapsed into ruins, and the once spiritually vibrant immortal mountain was now stained dark red with blood.
His extraordinarily talented descendants—the high-ranking members of the Cangyun Sect whom he had placed high hopes on and intended to use to provide faith and resources for his future cultivation—were now completely dead, their souls dispersed into the heavens and earth.
“A thousand years of planning, ruined in an instant...”
A low murmur escaped the old man's mouth, his voice dry and harsh, sounding like two rough stones grinding together.
His eyes instantly bloodshot, turning completely red as they locked onto the young figure in the void.
It was this woman who had severed the lineage of the Cangyun Sect and cut off his final path of retreat.
Having reached his realm, he naturally knew the price of forcibly breaking out of his coffin.
Once this already-decaying body left the dark iron divine coffin that could delay aging, his life force would drain away rapidly like sand in an hourglass.
In at most half an hour, if he could not slay this person and seize her blood qi, he would also turn completely into a pile of yellow soil.
“Ant...”
The old man's raspy voice echoed through heaven and earth.
In the next instant, his figure vanished into air.
Not good!
Having just made a breakthrough, Su Yueli's aura had not yet completely settled. Her pupils constricted.
Her instincts screamed a frantic warning at this moment, and every cell in her body trembled, urging her to retreat immediately.
However, it was too late.
A claw-like hand resembling dry bones, with nails as black as ink, suddenly reached out from the void behind her, locking onto her neck from an unavoidable angle.
Boom!
The pressure of the late stage Thirteenth Realm slammed down onto Su Yueli's shoulders like a ten-million-yard-tall divine mountain.
The spiritual energy in her body instantly became sluggish, and her protective astral qi hissed with black smoke the moment it made contact with that corpse qi.
“Ugh...”
