Chapter 27: Slaughter, Surpassing the Holy Body!
Chapter 27: Slaughter, Surpassing the Holy Body!
"Without strength, yet still acting arrogantly, and even daring to take the initiative to attack. If you die, it'll be a meaningless death!"
Upon hearing these words, the cultivators in the spectator stands were momentarily speechless.
But they became even more anxious.
Among those who were in peril due to the Phoenix Clan's Third Divine Son's ruthless attacks, there was his own direct disciple!
His face alternated between gloom and brightness.
However, the Phoenix Clan's Third Divine Son became even more ferocious, his killing intent surging. His fists were like mountains, and his palms like heavenly blades. Wherever he passed, the three of them paled in fear and retreated, even the Cavern Realm cultivators were injured one after another.
On the other hand, Fire Cloud remained still, but her four opponents were also in a dire situation!
Countless Spirit Tools and Magical Artifacts were unleashed, bombarding the four of them relentlessly. They could only defend themselves pitifully, without any chance to counterattack.
Witnessing this, Tie Hanhan's expression changed drastically. He hugged his alchemy cauldron and dashed to the edge of the venue, muttering, "Die, die, die..."
Xiao Ling'er was also secretly astonished.
The daughter of the Fire Virtue Sect's Sect Master, is this the power of a wealthy lady? She doesn't have a single Spirit Tool, but Fire Cloud has countless Spirit Tools and Magical Artifacts, perhaps even more in her storage bag!
What is this called? This is called foundation.
Unfortunately, the Moonseizing Sect has declined significantly over the years and currently lacks such a foundation.
She sighed inwardly, but soon her eyes sparkled with determination.
"As long as we have the Earth Core Demon Flame, there's a chance for our rise. With me here, from now on, the Moonseizing Sect will never lack medicinal pills. If we can bring back a talented disciple skilled in artifact refinement..."
The intense battle before her eyes was astonishing. Although they were all alchemists, their fighting prowess was no less than that of their peers, the Heaven's Pride.
However, Xiao Ling'er didn't feel interested at the moment; instead, she started calculating.
Wealth, law, and companionship.
For cultivators, wealth was undoubtedly the most crucial aspect, and within this 'wealth,' it naturally included medicinal pills and various equipment. She could take charge of refining pills, but for equipment, they needed an artifact refinement expert.
"It's a pity that Fire Cloud isn't suitable."
She carefully recalled the sect rules and discovered that Fire Cloud didn't meet any of the criteria, so she abandoned the idea of recruiting her.
Otherwise... she would have liked to give it a try.
But the success rate would undoubtedly be low.
If others were to learn of such thoughts, they would surely be speechless.
The young miss of the prestigious Fire Virtue Sect, and you don't think she's good enough?
At this moment, Liang Danxia couldn't help but speak up, "I increasingly feel that your master is extraordinary. The sect rules he set, especially the part about accepting disciples, completely avoid all kinds of Heaven's Pride, or at least, the obvious ones!"
"Hmm?"
Xiao Ling'er was taken aback and pondered carefully. It seemed that the rules were indeed designed to avoid various Heaven's Pride.
The rules were incomprehensible, with various priorities for admission and direct appointments as personal disciples, all of which were 'oddly shaped' and perfectly avoided various Heaven's Pride.
Whether they were already famous, had achieved results in their respective fields, or even those with natural divine bodies, none of them were eligible.
Not even a mention...
"He couldn't possibly be unaware of the power of natural Heaven's Pride, like those with divine bodies, but he doesn't care. He hasn't even mentioned them, which is unreasonable! Unless... he believes that the disciples recruited through these incomprehensible rules are even more powerful than Heaven's Pride!"
Liang Danxia's words shocked Xiao Ling'er, and she was also surprised by this revelation.
"If that's truly the case..." Xiao Ling'er muttered, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
"In my master's eyes, am I comparable to, or even surpassing, a divine body?"
She suddenly felt the pressure doubling!
"It's likely that he indeed believes so.
(End of Chapter)"Liang Danxia spoke softly, then said, "In my opinion, you don't need to worry about your divine or holy body. Given time, with the help of the sect and the guidance of this old lady, you might even surpass the current Holy Body."
"It's not impossible for you to defeat them in battle!"
After saying these words, Liang Danxia paused, realizing the implications.
Hiss!
Doesn't this indirectly prove the credibility of Lin Fan's established sect rules?
Boom!
Before the two could fully comprehend the situation, another of the three fighting the Feather Clan's Third Divine Son suffered a fatal blow, his body buried deep underground, breathless.
Boom!
The alchemy fire raged out of control, causing the cauldron to explode. Xiao Ling'er quickly retreated.
As for the remaining two, they naturally had no chance of survival.
Within moments, only one person was left, barely clinging to life.
Just as the Feather Clan's Third Divine Son was about to deliver the final blow, a faint voice came from the spectator stands, "Leave one alive. Don't kill them all. I owe you a favor."
"Who is that?!"
Everyone was startled and looked around.
The Feather Clan's Third Divine Son showed no hesitation and struck without mercy.
Pfft!
Blood splattered as a hand blade descended, and no one knew how many 'pieces' the last person had been cut into.
"Why should others speak about this Divine Son's actions?"
"Hmph!"
The voice remained ethereal, but in the end, it was just a cold snort, and nothing more.
"An old fool meddling in my affairs, and he dares to talk about favors with this Divine Son? I'm right here, and you dare to kill them all?" The Feather Clan's Third Divine Son smiled disdainfully, his gaze shifting between Huoyun and her opponent, a malicious glint in his eyes.
"He really wants to eliminate all his competitors?!" Xiao Ling'er was secretly shocked.
"It's just a petty person's act. After all, he's only the Third Divine Son... If the Feather Clan didn't back him, he wouldn't dare to be so reckless. Moreover, he wouldn't dare to kill everyone, at least not Huoyun. He wouldn't dare to lay a hand on her."
"The Fire Virtue Sect is a top-tier major sect, one of the best second-rate sects. Although the Feather Clan is a Sacred Land-level power, their Third Divine Son wouldn't dare to kill Huoyun. If it were the First Divine Son, there might still be a chance."
"Teacher, who are the Feather Clan?"
"In nicer terms, they are one of the immortal ancient clans among the demon race."
"In plainer terms, they are the avian demon race."
Liang Danxia's answer surprised Xiao Ling'er.
"So, they're a feathered demon race?"
As they spoke, the Feather Clan's Third Divine Son struck again, killing all four of Huoyun's opponents, but Huoyun and her opponent didn't make a move. They exchanged a glance, both with furrowed brows.
Then...
His gaze shifted to Xiao Ling'er and Tie Hanhan.
Tie Hanhan's face was filled with vigilance and fear, tightly clutching the cauldron like a bird ready to take flight at any moment.
Xiao Ling'er's brows knitted together, and she was on high alert.
"Forget it. After this, people will spread rumors that this Divine Son is bloodthirsty by nature. Hmph, two insignificant ants."
They were only at the Essence Condensation Realm, and even the pills they refined were only Third-Rank. In the end, he didn't feel like taking action, but he glanced at Tie Hanhan, "If this Divine Son wanted to make a move, could you escape?"
"Ah, I'm going to die, going to die, going to die!"
Tie Hanhan took off running, causing everyone to burst into laughter.
Xiao Ling'er heaved a sigh of relief.
"It seems I don't need to risk my life, and Teacher, you'll also face less danger."
"Indeed, it's better to keep a low profile..."
"Next time, if there's another alchemy competition, unless necessary, I won't participate again."
