Chapter 155: It’s Not That I Can’t Afford to Let You Go, But the Soul Search Technique Is More Cost-Effective!
In the vast sky, the ten directions shine together.
Endless killing intent piled up, reaching its limit, enough to shatter a person.
Zhou Tong, however, was calm and unperturbed, gazing at Xuan Yu with undisguised mockery at the corners of his mouth.
“You little beast, no matter what methods you have, you will die here today!”
“You old bastard, since you can shout so well, I’ll let you be the last one to go to hell!”
As these words fell, the opponent’s pupils suddenly constricted, a sense of foreboding surging in their heart.
“Impossible, no matter what, he is just a small ghost; I have already set up a killing formation of nine heavens and ten earths here.”
“Moreover, skilled fighters are like clouds; as long as the Sage doesn’t show up, killing him should be as easy as lifting a hand!”
He continually listed his advantages in his mind, seemingly believing that this would grant him boundless courage, ultimately setting his resolve.
“Hmph! Bluster is useless; get to it!”
With a decree, it was as if the Ghost Gate of Hell had been flung open.
The killing formation operated, the airship gathered momentum, experts struck simultaneously, moving in a coordinated way as if it were second nature.
Like the sun falling, the light surged, and Xuan Yu also launched an attack; this kind of might was enough to kill a Semi-Sage!
At this moment, a graceful figure flashed by, blocking Zhou Tong’s path.
Incomparable beauty, captivating and enchanting.
Even the light slowed down many times, pausing for that stunning visage.
“Mu Ran Ya!”
Xuan Yu’s heart raced, and soon his expression turned increasingly ferocious.
“What can you, the worthless slut, do by appearing? Ultimately, you are not a Sage; you can’t change the situation, and you’ll only accompany him to death!”
“Not a Sage, you say?”
Mu Ran Ya revealed a meaningful smile, then her expression chilled immensely.
The Jade Purity Sect wanting to behead Zhou Tong had profoundly touched her reverse scale.
She would show no mercy.
With a flick of her long sleeve, nine-colored glazed divine light surged forth, enveloping everything within a hundred miles.
All the killing formations and airships had nowhere to escape; in the moment of collapse, endless cries of despair erupted.
“Ah!! What is this thing?”
Short and intense, screams mixed with explosions, producing a horrifying shockwave.
“Bang bang bang bang!”
The airship exploded, the killing formations crumbled, lives were lost!
Everything completed in an instant, blood mist filled the void, floating severed limbs, painting a hellish scene.
It seemed to confirm Zhou Tong’s earlier prophecy; Xuan Yu truly survived, and he was the only one left alive from the Jade Purity Sect.
“Is this still an illusion technique?”
Zhou Tong asked condescendingly; at this moment, the opponent had already collapsed, feeling as though their blood had frozen, filled with terror.
He saw the Sage!
No, even the Sage couldn’t achieve this; Mu Ran Ya had done it.
What earth-shattering foolish act had he committed!
Surrounding the Sage, and especially a distinguished Sage, he had brought immense trouble to the Jade Purity Sect!
No, he could no longer afford to care about sect matters; his priority now was to survive.
“Spare me… I have realized my mistakes!”
He knelt in the void, trembling all over, his face as pale as snow.
“How to handle this?”
Mu Ran Ya looked at Zhou Tong, leaving his fate in his hands.
“You can’t kill me; after all, I am your elder. If you act against me, you will be committing a grave sin and will be condemned by all under heaven!”
“Kill him!”
Zhou Tong said without hesitation; he had developed a strong aversion to the moral coercion techniques.
Mu Ran Ya nodded slightly, and a beam of nine-colored light shot out, rushing toward Xuan Yu.
“You’re forcing me!”
His expression was grim, shouting with rage and resentment.
“We’re not forcing you; we’re here to kill you!”
As the words fell, the nine-colored glazed light struck him directly.
In that moment, no matter how many methods he had, he couldn’t stop this blow, directly penetrating his defenses and shattering his organs.
“Ah ah ah…”
He screamed in agony, blood gushing from his seven orifices; the strength of a Semi-Sage was completely diminished, and Zhou Tong grasped his neck, capturing him on the spot.
“You little beast, let me go!”
In desperation, he couldn’t help but curse, his face filled with shame and anger.
“Old thing, as the Senior Elder of the Jade Purity Sect, every inner disciple entering must report their situation to you in detail.”
Zhou Tong said, his tone profound: “Now tell me, did I have any identifying items when I was taken back to the Jade Purity Sect?”
As soon as these words left his mouth, the other’s expression changed drastically, and then faded from view.
“I already know the answer.”
“You little beast, so what if you know? I command you to quickly let me go; otherwise, you will never find those things!”
Xuan Yu clung to the last straw, threatening with an outstretched neck.
“There’s no need for such trouble; it’s not that I can’t afford to let you go, but the Soul Search Technique is more cost-effective!”
“Soul Search Technique? With just you? Hahaha… I’m a Semi-Sage, with vast spiritual power; do you dare… ah ah ah ah…”
Before he could finish, his entire body convulsed as if tortured by extreme punishment.
Moments later, Zhou Tong’s face was as calm as water; he had obtained the information he sought.
In contrast, Xuan Yu, a dignified Semi-Sage, had been tortured to tears; where was the image of a master left?
“Please, let me go; from today on, I’ll be your servant as long as I can live…”
“With your status, do you even deserve to be a dog? You might as well exert a little remaining strength for me.”
Zhou Tong sneered, raising his left hand as a miniature formation shot out, enveloping the opponent’s body.
“Array of Lively Stillness!”
Indeed, the sub-array drawn by Zhao Wutian hadn’t disappeared but had been appropriated by him.
“Ah… no, my body, my strength, my soul…”
Xuan Yu’s fear reached its peak, finally breaking the limits, transforming into deep hatred.
“Demon Seed! Evil path! How dare you use such means against me! You truly are a despicable villain deserving of everyone’s condemnation!”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Tong simply smiled faintly.
“You’re truly confused; this is a legitimate human race method, used to deal with you, the hypocritical old bastard, perfectly fitting!”
With a soft sound, a strand of disaster ash appeared in the world.
Zhou Tong looked at the amber-colored Semi-Sage source without hesitance, turning himself into a furnace and directly refining it.
This process wasn’t too long, even less than half an hour, when a strong fluctuation surged from him.
Shattering and slashing through the sky, life and death alternating, everything fell into place so naturally!
He fixed his eyes like lightning, sweeping across the mountains and fields, causing everything to wither.
With another snap of his fingers, the earth sprouted anew; plants began to bud, brimming with vibrant life.
Such methods shocked Lian Hanxing.
This hardly resembled a beginner in the Life-Death Realm; it was as if he had been pondering in this realm for a long time and had completely mastered it!
…
In the Jade Purity Sect, nine levels underground, a figure suddenly opened their eyes.
This was the Sect Master of the Jade Purity Sect, who had been in seclusion for several years and had finally achieved results.
“Everything is ready; today, this seat will become a Sage!”
