Slaying a Sage

Within the Yuqing Heaven, the powerful beings wore expressions of anticipation, never expecting that their visit to listen to a sermon would lead to such a spectacle.

Ling Xiao, whom everyone thought had perished, suddenly reappeared. From his conversation with Yuanshi, we can vaguely deduce something.

Why did Ling Xiao say that the Three Pure Ones of the Yuanshi had been searching for him?

This also means that the Three Pure Ones knew that Ling Xiao was still alive. So what happened during this time?

"Ling Xiao, did you ever imagine that one day I would also become a saint? Now that all three of us in the Three Pure Ones have become saints, what do you have to fight against us all by yourself?"

Yuanshi stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes revealing arrogance. He appeared very conceited, but above his head, the Clouds of the Heavens appeared, an ultimate defensive magic weapon.

Once the Clouds of the Heavens are unleashed, they are said to ward off all evil, be immune to all magic, ignore attacks from any treasures or weapons, and be immune to damage from all supernatural powers and spells.

Yuanshi knew that Ling Xiao had become a saint earlier than him, and his magical power should not be weaker than his, so he did not let his guard down.

This time, he's going to go all out and make a spectacular comeback.

The next moment, the Pangu Banner appeared in his hand, and with the slightest movement, it possessed the divine power to shatter Chaos and create the world.

With Auspicious Cloud above his head and the Pangu Banner in his hand, he excelled in both offense and defense.

At this moment, the Yuanshi figures were in an uproar, their scalps tingling with astonishment. Judging from Yuanshi's appearance, he was going to fight with all his might.

The fact that a Sage would treat Ling Xiao this way shows just how powerful he is now.

He is comparable to Sage.

Yuanshi spoke very frankly, which was also his reliance. The powerful beings nodded in agreement, indicating that what he said made sense.

Of the Three Crows, only Ling Xiao has the strength to rival Sage. Di Jun and Tai Yi are still insignificant and, before becoming saints themselves, are like ants in the face of Sage, unable to offer any help.

"Yuanshi, words are useless. If talking were useful, you would have been the best in the world long ago."

"Show me your full power! Let me see how you, now a saint, have changed from before!"

Ling Xiao spoke calmly, and as soon as he took a step, the entire Yuqing Heaven nearly collapsed. This invisible power was supreme and immense, beyond imagination.

"Heh, arrogant! Last time you suppressed me with your cultivation level, but this time things won't go as you wish."

Yuanshi said in a cold voice, and within the Auspicious Cloud above his head, the Chaos World appeared, with the sun, moon and stars shining brightly, and Five-Colored Radiance illuminating the heavens, accompanied by celestial music that resounded throughout the universe.

"Die!"

Ling Xiao let out a cold shout, and with a shake of his hands, half of Yuqing Heaven was destroyed, causing the Chaos to boil and shatter. The Chaos void where they were located was completely destroyed.

Ling Xiao and Yuanshi controlled the leaking magical power, unwilling to harm the innocent. The battlefield may seem small, but a battle between Sage, even if it is only a few feet long, is still a battlefield that can shake the world.

The Primordial Cauldron flew out, illuminating countless worlds in the Chaos, and suppressing the Clouds of the Heavens and the Pangu Banner.

Clouds of the Heavens were suppressed, they immediately emitted a vast divine light. Countless golden lanterns, golden lotuses, necklaces, and hanging beads fell from the Auspicious Cloud, like water dripping from the eaves, flowing endlessly.

"Ling Xiao, is this all you're relying on?"

"I've already said it before, after becoming a saint, there will be no difference between us anymore. My defeat in the past was due to our different levels of cultivation."

The Yuanshi Dao Sound boomed, as if declaring to the entire world, and indeed, it meant so.

In the instant they clashed, he felt that Ling Xiao was evenly matched with him, and didn't seem particularly powerful.

"You're celebrating too soon." A cold smile appeared on Ling Xiao's lips. The next moment, he raised his hand and struck out, instantly shattering endless space and time, Creation heaven and earth, with immeasurable divine power. It was the sublimation and manifestation of the Law of Strength.

Every cell in the body is a world, containing vast amounts of blood and energy.

This palm strike, capable of shattering eternity, possessed incredible divine power and instantly struck Yuanshi.

"This! Impossible!" Yuanshi's expression changed drastically, and then his entire body exploded, turning into the most dazzling fireworks. The endless Chaos void seemed to be experiencing a torrential downpour.

"Rumble..."

An astonishing phenomenon appeared, accompanied by a continuous roar, as if the heavens were weeping.

What's going on?

"Sage shed blood?"

"Dead?"

The powerful figures below were completely dumbfounded, their scalps tingling, feeling as if they were dreaming.

Yuan Shi was full of vigor just moments Yuanshi, boasting that he was on par with Ling Xiao, but the next instant he was utterly defeated.

Can anyone tell them what happened?

At this moment, all the powerful beings present panicked, stared in disbelief, and trembled with fear.

"Yuanshi is dead?"

They couldn't imagine how Sage, so transcendent, could have fallen to such a state.

What chilled them to the bone even more was that Ling Xiao's power was simply unbelievable.

What level of skill is this?

Ling Xiao ignored everyone's reactions, raised his hand and grabbed, and the rain of blood that filled the sky quickly gathered together, condensing into a ball that emitted a dazzling light.

"The essence of Sage... a treasure!"

"Such vast energy surpasses any immortal fruit or spiritual root."

Ling Xiao raised his hand and grabbed, sealing the Sage's essence blood and throwing it into the Chaos Bead.

As for Yuanshi, he was not so easy to kill. As Sage of merit, his primordial spirit was entrusted to the Heavenly Dao. As long as the Heavenly Dao did not perish, it would be almost impossible to kill him.

However, resurrection is not so simple; it requires consuming one's essence.

Then, he raised his hand to recall the Primordial Cauldron and took down the Clouds of the Heavens. As for the Pangu Banner, it had already disappeared the moment Yuanshi.

"Not bad." Ling Xiao put away the Clouds of the Heavens and commented, then took a step and disappeared.

Just as Yuanshi was being destroyed, Laozi and Tongtian naturally learned of it, and were immediately filled with fear and shock.

"Ling Xiao has appeared!"

Laozi's expression was one of surprise and uncertainty. What was bound to happen had finally come. He had already considered this before coming to the Chaos Creation World, but he never expected it to actually happen.

What chilled him to the bone was how quickly the killing had happened. By the time they realized what was happening, the battle was already over, and they didn't even have time to provide support.

This is hard to understand. Yuanshi had already become a saint, so why was he so easily defeated?

"Let's go, elder brother, let's avenge our second brother!" Tongtian was of a fierce nature, and Yuanshi was his brother after all, so he naturally couldn't stand idly by.

"Don't be impatient, Ling Xiao has probably already left," Laozi said.

"We'll wait here in the Daoist temple. Perhaps Ling Xiao will come to us soon. When that happens, you need to set up the Immortal Immortal-Slaughtering Formation as soon as possible. We can't give him a chance to defeat us one by one," Laozi transmitted his voice, making a shrewd and calculating arrangement.

Now that Yuanshi is gone, it will be difficult for him and Tongtian alone to defeat Ling Xiao. They can only set up an array to suppress him.

"Understood!" Tongtian replied.

Meanwhile, at another temple, Jieyin Zhun Ti gradually learned about what had happened in Yuqing Heaven.

"Senior brother, is Ling Xiao coming here too?"
