Chapter 244: The Human Race, Merely Lowly and Despicable Creatures!
"Make your move."
The eccentric man spoke slowly.
"Yes!"
The blue-robed cultivators on both sides of him reached out and took out two small banners, throwing them towards the valley below. Simultaneously, they formed hand seals and chanted incantations.
Vibrant!
At that moment, the small banners burst into radiance, and the previously vanished spatial passage reappeared.
The eccentric man also took out a soul banner, formed hand seals, and chanted, manipulating the soul banner.
However, after several breaths, he did not see the expected remnant soul appear.
"Was it destroyed to the point of soul dissipation?"
The eccentric man's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and without further ado, he took a step into the spatial passage.
The remaining blue-robed cultivators exchanged glances.
After a while, the eccentric man emerged from the spatial passage with a gloomy expression and said, "Let's go to that place where someone might have attempted to attain Dharmakaya."
They couldn't even find the physical body, so how could they summon a soul?
However, he did detect a faint trace of Incense Vow Golden Body.
So, the one who made the move was a Golden Body? But within Taixu Mountain, which sect's Golden Body has reached the Half-step Dharmakaya realm? It couldn't be that guy who fled to the ruins, could it?
A hint of doubt flashed through the eccentric man's eyes.
The other cultivators, seeing his expression, didn't dare say anything more and followed him.
They transformed into streams of light, swiftly crossing the sky, and as they passed by Pingyang City, the eccentric man stopped, his eyebrows slightly furrowed.
He then spat out a stream of pitch-black true flame.
The ink-black flame instantly struck Pingyang City like a heavy hammer.
Boom!!
The fierce black flame instantly enveloped the entire city.
Piercing screams immediately echoed from within Pingyang City.
Martial cultivators tried to escape from Pingyang City, but the black flame clung to them like an incurable disease, impossible to extinguish.
Thus, even if they managed to flee from Pingyang City, they could only be helplessly devoured by the black flame, turning into ashes.
After a brief moment, the wailing and screams in Pingyang City subsided, and it became a completely dead, ruined city.
Witnessing this scene, the eccentric man revealed a satisfied smile, as if his previous annoyance had greatly diminished.
The few blue-robed cultivators by his side remained calm, their faces unmoved.
As members of the Qingxiao Sect and Half-step Dharmakaya cultivators, destroying a small city in Taixu Mountain was no big deal. Even if they had destroyed the cities on Wanxiang Mountain, no one would dare to say anything!
"Alright, let's go."
The eccentric man chuckled lightly.
The group continued as streams of light, rushing out and traversing thousands of miles to reach the collapsed Qing Mountain.
At this moment, the lingering bloody scent had not yet dispersed.
"Half-step Dharmakaya!"
The eccentric man narrowed his eyes and spoke solemnly.
The bloody scent permeating the air belonged to a Great Demon of the Half-step Dharmakaya level! He gently twitched his nose, his figure wandering through the surrounding void, and continued, "One... two... three... four... five!"
Then, as if remembering something, he wanted to check for the scent of Incense Vow Power.
But after a thorough investigation, he did not detect any trace of Incense Vow Power.
Therefore, the one who attempted to attain enlightenment in this place was not the same person as the one in the Dharmakaya Grotto.
"Interesting."
The eccentric man chuckled lightly.
Previously, there was a Golden Body with Incense Vow Power, rivaling the Half-step Dharmakaya.
And now, there's a Half-step Dharmakaya with sufficient accumulation, attempting to attain enlightenment."
Judging by the aura, they both belonged to the Human Race! It seems that after such a long time without suppressing these lowly and despicable beings, they think they can rise again!
Perhaps it's time to bring up the matter of cleansing the Human Race's powerhouses with the Patriarch when we return this time!
Just like thousands of years ago, when those three Human Race geniuses were ruthlessly trampled upon and crushed!
Let the Human Race clearly recognize who is the true master of this world!

"tool": "directly-translated",
As the white-robed figure underwent this transformation, all eyes in the vicinity immediately turned towards it.
After a few breaths, the white-robed figure approached the cultivators from the three great immortal sects and slowly spoke, "I am Zhang Wensheng from the Qianxu Cave of Yuncang Mountain."
Upon hearing the name 'Yuncang Mountain', Qin Zheng's eyebrows slightly lifted.
After arriving at Taixu Mountain, Qin Zheng studied the ancient jade slips left behind by Fuhua Daoist and the information provided by other martial cultivators.
This newfound knowledge gave Qin Zheng a clearer understanding of this world compared to his previous vague impressions.
During the final calamity of the immortal civilization, the human race used incense vow power to replace spirit energy, defying the heavenly Dao with earthly resistance.
Ultimately, this attracted the intervention of celestial immortals who descended upon the world, shattering the heavens and earth, and transforming them into several fragments of land.
After countless years of evolution, these fragments of land became independent from each other, forming their own unique worlds.
The regions governing these fragments of land were collectively known as the Three Mountains and Five Lands.
The Three Mountains and Five Blessed Lands! Yuncang Mountain was one of the Three Mountains, alongside Wanxiang Mountain!
Taixu Mountain was vast and served as the central hub connecting the Three Mountains and Five Lands.
It was no surprise that cultivators from the Three Mountains and Five Lands would gather at Taixu Mountain, where a spiritual vein had revived.
However, this particular location was closer to Wanxiang Mountain.
Consequently, the three great immortal sects from Wanxiang Mountain acted arrogantly, directly sealing off the area with array formations, clearly intending to monopolize the spiritual vein.
At this moment, Yuncang Mountain's faction wanted to intervene, but they were unsure about the strength of Qianxu Cave and whether it had a Dharmakaya master.
Qin Zheng's thoughts raced in that instant.
The white-robed figure continued, "Taixu Mountain belongs to all the Three Mountains and Five Lands, not just Wanxiang Mountain!"
"Since the spiritual vein has revived, all the Three Mountains and Five Lands have a share. I hope all fellow cultivators can be reasonable!"
As he finished speaking, the surrounding martial cultivators burst into an uproar.
The revival of Taixu Mountain's spiritual vein had drawn a constant stream of martial cultivators in recent days.
But this was the first time someone dared to confront the three great immortal sects so boldly!
However, after Zhang Wensheng finished speaking, the cultivators from the three great immortal sects didn't bother to respond.
Some even closed their eyes, appearing to be asleep.
Zhang Wensheng's face slightly darkened with anger, and he shouted, "Fellow cultivators! I am from Qianxu Cave of Yuncang Mountain! At this moment..."
Before he could finish, a streak of light suddenly descended from the sky. The thick aura that followed caused Zhang Wensheng's figure to fly backwards instantly.
"Scram!"
Immediately, a stern and cold voice thundered, reverberating like a roar.
The aura, even more powerful than that of a typical half-step Dharmakaya, swept through the area, causing the surrounding martial cultivators to retreat.
Zhang Wensheng was instantly heavily injured, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood, his face paling.
At that moment, the figure that had descended from the sky also caught everyone's attention.
He wore a green robe, his face cold, and his body emanated a heart-palpitating aura.
"Qingxiao Sect! Liyang True Person!"
As soon as they recognized him, Qin Zheng also heard the surrounding martial cultivators speaking.
"Remember this! It's not just your Wanxiang Mountain that has a Dharmakaya master!"
At that moment, Zhang Wensheng seemed to calm down and shouted at Liyang True Person."
Liyang True Person's face remained cold as he slowly spoke, "The human race?"
His voice carried an unmistakable killing intent.
Zhang Wensheng's face twitched, revealing a hint of fear.
Then, Liyang True Person took a step forward and continued, "Even if Qianxu Cave has a Dharmakaya master, if you want to intervene in this spiritual vein, a Dharmakaya must come forward. How dare you, a lowly creature, bark in front of me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Liyang True Person opened his mouth, and a wisp of black flame suddenly surged out, engulfing Zhang Wensheng.
Feeling the power within the black flame, Zhang Wensheng's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly said, "I came on behalf of Yuncang Mountain! How dare you kill me?"
As he spoke, he took out a turtle shell, which emitted a green light, blocking the black flame's attack.
Buzz!
The turtle shell glowed with green light, resisting the black flame's assault.
But soon, the turtle shell couldn't hold on and exploded.
The black flame instantly wrapped around Zhang Wensheng.
"Ahhhh!"
A piercing, miserable scream echoed through the void.
A cold smile appeared on Liyang True Person's face, and with a wave of his hand, he retracted the black flame from Zhang Wensheng.
Taking a step forward, he held up Zhang Wensheng, whose skin was charred and terrifying, and addressed the crowd, "If any human dares to covet this spiritual vein again, their fate..."
Boom!
Suddenly, the ground shook, and the mountain trembled! A gaping hole erupted with a volcanic burst of pure, spiritual energy!
Spiritual Energy!
The spiritual vein pulsed!
In an instant, everyone's attention turned to the towering pillar of spiritual energy rising into the sky.
Through the haze, they could make out several flexible, fish-like objects moving within.
Spiritual Veins!
However, the vast spiritual energy and the few spiritual veins were all trapped by the array formations of the three great immortal sects, unable to leak out even a bit.
Witnessing this, Liyang True Person let out a cold laugh.
He gripped Zhang Wensheng tightly.
Ahhh!
The miserable scream once again seized everyone's attention.
Liyang True Person's cold voice continued, "Regardless of which human from the Three Mountains and Five Lands dares to covet this spiritual vein..."
Before he could finish, a figure in a golden-patterned black robe stepped out from the crowd, heading towards the pillar of spiritual energy that pierced the heavens.
"Good, good, good!"
Liyang True Person was initially startled, then his voice turned cold as he released Zhang Wensheng.
"There's always some lowly, ignorant creature seeking death before me."
With that, he took a step forward, instantly charging towards the figure.
