Chapter 340: Chapter 339 Stay Alert (Subscription Requested) In an instant, countless disciples from the Grand Daoist Sect scattered like birds, swiftly fleeing in all directions. Some disciples, due to old grudges or spilled Magical Artifacts on the ground, suddenly made their move. There was no distinction between good and evil among Immortal Cultivators, only interests. It was no different from the Martial Artists of the World. Bai Ziyue watched indifferently, ultimately refraining from killing those low-tier cultivators who tried to escape. *Revenge for old grudges, pay back old grievances!* He could retaliate against the leadership of the Grand Daoist Sect, unleash his Magic upon those who attacked him, but he would not commit wanton slaughter. “Hmm?” However, a hint of coldness flashed in Bai Ziyue’s eyes. He saw a familiar face. Liu Zhixuan! Several months ago, it was because of Gong Fei and Liu Zhixuan that Zhou Qing attempted to assassinate him. It could be said he was one of the culprits behind all the grievances. Back then, Gong Fei had been killed by him, but Liu Zhixuan escaped with Zhou Qing’s protection. This time, having run into him, he certainly wouldn’t let him go. The Flying Sword shot out, disappearing in a flash. Liu Zhixuan, desperately fleeing, seemed to sense something, suddenly looking up to meet Bai Ziyue’s cold gaze. His heart trembled wildly, and he quickly shouted, “No... spare me...” Poof! The result remained unchanged. The Flying Sword directly pierced him. “Soul Energy +8922!” Then, Bai Ziyue moved, appearing like a phantom in front of the Fourth Elder of the Grand Daoist Sect, Jiangg Liu. “Speak, where is your Sect Leader?” Bai Ziyue asked coldly. “I suppose you are Bai Ziyue, who obtained the inheritance of the Immortal Martial Sect, right? We are originally from the same roots, from the same school.” Jiangg Liu sighed, an infinite sadness flashed in his eyes. “If there’s blame, it can only be placed on your Grand Daoist Sect’s Sect Leader, for different choices lead to vastly different outcomes.” Bai Ziyue said indifferently. *He only wanted to cultivate peacefully and had no intention of making enemies with anyone. Yet Zhou Qing descended upon him, attacking him.* *Thinking closely, how innocent was he?* “Indeed, if there wasn’t greed in the heart, if the thought of killing to seize treasures hadn’t arisen, things wouldn’t have come to this.” Jiangg Liu said, sighing, “But it was too tempting.” “An Immortal Cultivator of the Qi Refinement Stage, wielding a Circulation Inference Mirror, such a treasure would make anyone greedy. Our Grand Daoist Sect grew to this level in just two hundred years. If we didn’t practice opportunistic and forceful plundering, how could we have developed and thrived? However, we never expected your power to be so tremendous, nor that you could elevate your Immortal Technique Realm to the late-stage Enlightenment Realm in such a short time. If we had known... if we had known, the Sect Leader should have risked exposure and must have killed you prematurely.” Jiangg Liu’s eyes flashed with a faint hint of regret. *But not for provoking Bai Ziyue, rather for regretting that Sect Leader Zhou Qing didn’t kill Bai Ziyue earlier, leading their Grand Daoist Sect to this calamity.* “Hmm?” Bai Ziyue’s expression changed. “I know you want to know about our Sect Leader. Regarding the many cultivation techniques, Pill Formulas, spells within our sect... and all those collections, treasures, I think you are equally tempted, right? Yet, to annihilate our sect makes you our Grand Daoist Sect’s enemy. Do you think we would truly leave them to you? I think, without the sect’s constraints, the Sect Leader’s actions should be more unrestrained... you are doomed!” Jiangg Liu said, his pale face revealing a hint of ferocity. With a turn of his hand, a Purple Gold Array Disc suddenly appeared. “Not good!” Bai Ziyue’s heart jolted, hastily firing the Flying Sword. “Too late, explode!” Jiangg Liu rubbed the Array Disc, quickly activating it. Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! On top of the Grand Daoist Sect’s Cloud-piercing Peak, endless light suddenly bloomed. Violent Spiritual Energy fluctuations slightly dispersed, then suddenly contracted. Boom! Boom! Boom! The earth trembled, and the Earth Dragon turned over. As if the heavens and earth were collapsing, the entire Cloud-piercing Peak exploded instantly. Countless buildings, pavilions, the Scripture Pavilion, Alchemy Pavilion, Treasure Pavilion... collapsed in a flash, then were buried by endless massive stones from the mountain. Terrifying energy surged, transforming into massive waves. Everything within the wave’s scope was instantly torn, shattered, annihilated... sweeping everything, and destroying everything. “To detonate the Spirit Meridian, such ruthlessness!” Bai Ziyue gritted his teeth in coldness, but his actions showed no delay as the Gale Silver Wing Shuttle flew out, expanding with the wind, quickly engulfing him. Buzz! Without any hesitation, he directly activated the Flying Shuttle and immediately pushed its speed to the maximum. Sizzle~! The Flying Shuttle vibrated, and one after another, prohibition secret patterns suddenly lit up. Puh! As if breaking through some limit, the Flying Shuttle suddenly shone brightly and then flashed, accelerating at a speed faster than before. Gale Flash! At this moment, it was exactly the powerful Escape Technique, Gale Flash, originally carried by the Flying Shuttle, that he had activated. Accompanied by this Escape Technique, the speed of the Flying Shuttle instantly broke through the limit that a Peak of Enlightenment Realm Cultivator could reach, soaring like a flowing light. At the same time, Bai Ziyue’s Flying Sword suddenly flashed and appeared close to Jiangg Liu, slightly grazing his waist, making his Storage Bag follow the Flying Sword swiftly towards Bai Ziyue like a startled swan. Bai Ziyue did not directly kill him. Because, he didn’t need to! After the Spirit Meridian exploded, the power unleashed was far more terrifying than even the eruption of Earth Fire. Considering Jiangg Liu’s cultivation was completely dispersed, nearly making him a cripple, even if he was perfectly unharmed and still at the late-stage Enlightenment Realm cultivation, he wouldn’t escape death in such a terrifying Spiritual Energy storm. A breath, two breaths, three breaths... Boom! The enormous Spiritual Energy uproar, like rolling waves, rapidly surged forth, engulfing Jiangg Liu almost immediately, swallowing many cultivators who didn’t have time to escape, and swiftly catching up with Bai Ziyue’s Flying Shuttle, grinding it harshly. Rumble! The Flying Shuttle trembled, and the spirit light was torn apart instantly. The lurching Flying Shuttle was violently thrown out. Even the many defense measures on Bai Ziyue’s body were like thin paper, breaking through several layers one after another... ... Ten minutes later. The clouds were distant, and the originally towering Cloud-piercing Peak had completely collapsed. The Grand Daoist Sect, established for over two hundred years, was completely buried under endless rubble, almost leaving no trace of its original existence. Even the originally dense Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi around the area started to thin out, following the explosion of the Second-grade High-tier Spirit Meridian. “Truly ruthless. Originally, the Grand Daoist Sect might have managed to escape some of this. In the end, Jiangg Liu brutally crushed that chance.” Bai Ziyue’s eyes flickered with a trace of complexity. He found himself somewhat too naive; at least in terms of ruthlessness, he was far inferior to Jiangg Liu and Zhou Qing, those sly old foxes. They were ruthless not only to others but also to themselves. He initially harbored some kindness, but now it seemed there was no need for that. Both sides were already destined for a fight to the death, so how could they consider so much? As long as the enemy was confirmed, there was no need to hesitate, delivering the killing blow immediately was the most correct approach. “Ultimately, it’s still due to a lack of experience. But how many people can actually have experience in something like flattening a mountain and exterminating a sect? For me, it’s enough to achieve the predetermined goals. It’s somewhat unfortunate about the Grand Daoist Sect’s cultivation techniques and secret techniques, treasures, Spirit Stones... but, it can’t be helped.” Bai Ziyue lamented, comforting himself, but a look of pain still flashed across his subtly twitching face. “This is a lesson to remember, even if holding the absolute upper hand, one must never underestimate any opponent.” Bai Ziyue was a person who learned quickly; upon reflecting on his actions this time, he quickly discovered several significant shortcomings. “However, this wave of harvest is actually quite substantial. At the very least, I’ve gained five more Storage Bags. These should be able to cover some of my losses. Moreover, the most important thing is that my Soul Energy has surged significantly. Currently, it’s... four million five hundred and seventy thousand.” Bai Ziyue’s gaze swept over the newly acquired Storage Bags and the Soul Energy quantity on the Attribute Panel. This finally brought him some comfort. Regarding cultivation techniques and spell, he had already mastered the Immortal Martial Dao Skill and Immortal Martial Glowing Light, while the other needs weren’t too significant. Within the Grand Daoist Sect, there were no Divine Spell either, only those two techniques were considered decent. The others couldn’t compare to the Sunrise Daoist Sect. As for Spirit Stones and Spiritual Artifacts and the like. Bai Ziyue believed that most of these were definitely in the hands of the Grand Daoist Sect’s various Immortal Masters. Even if the opponent’s treasury had some, the amount was surely limited; the senior members of the Grand Daoist Sect were far more ruthless in exploiting low-tier cultivators compared to the Sunrise Daoist Sect. This could be seen clearly from Jiangg Liu’s ruthless action of blasting the Spirit Meridian. Plus, including the previous eight, Bai Ziyue now had thirteen Storage Bags from Enlightenment Realm Immortal Masters in his possession. That was essentially equivalent to bringing most of the Grand Daoist Sect’s assets under his control. Not a loss! “As for Zhou Qing, there will be times we’ll meet. Moreover, even if he hides and doesn’t show up again, I’m not afraid. There is a Daoist Skill in the Sunrise Daoist Sect called the Nine Palaces Star Pursuing Skill. Although this skill doesn’t involve attacks, nor is it a Defense Spell, it can track an enemy’s whereabouts through sensing amidst karmic threads. If needed, I’ll learn this skill, and no matter how far and wide, I’ll be able to find him.” Bai Ziyue contemplated, ready to explore the Grand Daoist Sect ruins to see if there’s anything else of value, when suddenly he sensed spirit lights rushing towards him from afar. Knowing that the commotion here had eventually attracted the attention of surrounding cultivators. Without any intention of facing them, Bai Ziyue transformed into a spirit light and shot in the opposite direction, disappearing quickly without a trace.
