Twelve Grade Merit Golden Lotus, Chipped!

[Ding! Host has made a choice, reward has been issued!]

[Congratulations to Host for obtaining: Chaos Pearl (Fragment)!]

As the system prompt faded, a wisp of gray airflow silently merged into Xiruan's body.

In an instant, Xiruan felt a strange sense of detachment from the world around her.

She was clearly still standing here, yet it felt as if she had leaped out of this realm, observing everything from a higher dimension.

[Chaos Pearl (Fragment): When activated, it can temporarily shield heavenly secrets, conceal one's form, and leap beyond the Three Realms. Not bound by the five elements, even the Heavenly Dao and Saint cannot pinpoint your existence within a short period.]

The system explanation echoed in her mind.

"Wow! This is great! An invisibility cheat!"

When Xiruan played games before, her favorite classes were assassins and rogues. Stealth, backstabs, stealing – it was just too much fun!

The two Saint had joined forces to cast the Heavenly Net, vowing to suppress this little Devil King in one fell swoop!

"Senior!"

Wudang Holy Mother closed her eyes in despair, unable to bear watching any longer.

Even with the senior's vast Spiritual Power, facing the combined killing blow of two Saint would likely result in a grim outcome.

However, what happened next was a scene that everyone would remember for the rest of their lives.

Just a moment before the two world-destroying attacks were about to land on Xiruan.

The small red figure actually... vanished into thin air!

"What?!"

Jieyin and Zunti's pupils contracted sharply, their hearts filled with dread.

Where did she go?!

The divine senses of the two Saint could cover the entire Primal Wilderness and Three Realms, yet at this moment, they couldn't sense the slightest trace of Xiruan!

How was this possible?!

BOOM--!

The Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree and Jieyin's treasure banner, having lost their target, collided fiercely, unleashing an earth-shattering roar.

The clash of the two Saint powers triggered a terrifying energy storm that instantly swept across the entire Spirit Mountain.

Countless palaces and pavilions collapsed in the storm, and numerous Buddhas and Bodhisattva were sent flying, leaving the sacred land of Spirit Mountain in utter disarray.

Just as everyone was thrown into a panic by the sudden turn of events.

A voice, filled with surprise and a childish lilt, rang out from the Eight Treasures Merit Pool.

"Wow! This big lotus looks even prettier up close!"

Jieyin and Zunti whipped their heads around.

Xiruan had, at some unknown time, appeared by the Merit Pool, her face full of curiosity as she gently touched the Twelve Grade Merit Golden Lotus.

"You... how did you get over here?!" Zunti Daoren (Quanti) shrieked, his voice filled with disbelief.

"I just walked over," Xiruan tilted her little head, her expression one of utter naturalness.

She had just activated the ability of the Chaos Pearl fragment, entering a peculiar state of invisibility, and had simply strolled over.

It couldn't have been easier!

"I'm taking this big flowery chair!"

Xiruan declared ownership of the lotus and, picking up her Chaos Baby Bottle, smashed it fiercely against the Twelve Grade Merit Golden Lotus.

"No--!"

Jieyin and Zunti simultaneously let out heart-wrenching screams.

This was the treasure of their Western Religious Sect!

This was the foundation of their attainment of sainthood!

BOOM--!

"BZZZT--!"

The Twelve Grade Merit Golden Lotus trembled violently, emitting billions of golden protective lights.

Each golden light contained a Buddha World, with three thousand Buddhas chanting within, attempting to resist this world-ending blow.

However, in the face of the Chaos Baby Bottle's brute and overbearing chaotic energy, these Buddha World constructed from merit and faith were as fragile as bubbles.

"Pop! Pop! Pop!"

The billions of golden protective lights, upon contact with the baby bottle, annihilated, collapsed, and disintegrated layer by layer!

The Chaos Baby Bottle, like a bamboo spear piercing a rotten wooden post, struck the Twelve Grade Merit Golden Lotus's true form directly!

"CRACK--!"

A crisp cracking sound echoed.

Everyone's jaws dropped, staring blankly at the golden lotus in the center of the Merit Pool.

On one of its lotus petals, which flowed with infinite Daoist charm, a barely perceptible crack appeared.

Immediately after, the crack spread like a spiderweb.

Finally, the lotus petal broke off with a snap, falling into the Eight Treasures Merit Pool and splashing water.

The entire Spirit Mountain fell into a deathly silence...

All the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats were frozen in place as if under a spell, their minds blank.

Broken... broken?

Their sect's treasure, the Twelve Grade Merit Golden Lotus, hailed as the number one defense in the Primal Wilderness... had its corner smashed off by a baby with a baby bottle?!

This... this can't be real! It must be an illusion! A demonic illusion!

"Pfft—!"

"Pfft—!"

Two sharp sounds of spitting blood jolted everyone from their stupor.

In the sky, the two Saints, Jieyin and Zhunti, spat out Saint Blood from their mouths.

The Twelve Grade Merit Golden Lotus was their companion treasure, connected to the very core of their minds.

Damage to the golden lotus was equivalent to damage to their Dao Foundation!

"My... my golden lotus..."

Jieyin Daoren looked at the fallen lotus petal, his emotions filled with despair. He felt as if his heart had shattered along with it.

"Demon! Devil! You devil!"

Zhunti Daoren went mad, pointing at Xiruan below and roaring hysterically.

He had completely broken down.

He couldn't accept that the foundation of the Western Religious Sect, accumulated over billions of years of deception and trickery, was destroyed in an instant!

"Huh? Only this little piece fell off?"

Xiruan looked at the lotus petal that had fallen into the pool with some dissatisfaction, her little mouth pouting.

"This big lotus is much harder than that broken flag belonging to the bad second uncle."

She felt her strength was still a bit lacking. She should have eaten more candy earlier.

These lighthearted complaints were no less than another heavy hammer blow to the ears of the Two Sages of the West, smashing fiercely onto their already shattered Dao hearts.

What did she mean, "only this little piece fell off"?

Did she know what that little piece represented?!

It represented a segment of their Western Religious Sect's fortune being forcibly severed! It represented billions of years of hard cultivation ruined!

"Dad, look, this thing is quite sturdy."

Xiruan didn't forget to show off her achievement towards the direction of Zixiao Palace.

Even though she knew her father couldn't see, she still wanted to say it.

Inside Zixiao Palace, Master Tongtian was utterly speechless.

He looked at the chipped Twelve Grade Merit Golden Lotus in the water mirror, then at the faces of Jieyin and Zhunti, which were uglier than if their own fathers had died.

He had given up thinking.

Just destroy it, quickly!

How many more surprises would his own daughter bring him?

"Hmph! It doesn't matter if it's not sturdy!"

On Spirit Mountain, Xiruan raised the Chaos Baby Bottle in her hand again, aiming at the Twelve Grade Merit Golden Lotus.

"If I don't tear you apart today, my name isn't Xi!"

She let out a clear cry and smashed down again.

This scene almost scared the souls of Jieyin and Zhunti out of their bodies.

Again?!

One more hit, and their Twelve Grade Golden Lotus would truly be downgraded on the spot, becoming an Eleven Grade!

Then their Western Religious Sect would truly become a laughingstock of the Three Realms!

"Stop! Stop quickly!"

"We can talk! We can discuss anything!"

The two Saints could no longer care about face or dignity, simultaneously letting out terrified pleas.

They were truly scared.

This little Devil King really intended to dismantle their sect's treasure!
