Extermination

The man was dressed in a dark robe, had a young face, and was surrounded by endless lightning.

The person who arrived was none other than Chen Lingxi!

Chen Lingxi arrived riding on clouds, his aura incredibly profound.

A faint smile suddenly appeared on the lips of Emperor Daye, whose face had been expressionless.

He tilted his head slightly, and the smile vanished, replaced by a deep and weary expression.

Yu Jiangwei stood above the blue clouds, her deep, abyss-like eyes piercing through the churning mist and landing on Chen Lingxi.

She scrutinized Chen Lingxi carefully, her eyebrows slightly raised.

In a short time, the Dao Origin fluctuations around Chen Lingxi were much more profound than during the battle at Ancestral Mountain Profound Root Transformation, and his Qi and Blood surged like a tide.

Chen Lingxi's own aura was actually much stronger than when he defeated Bai Lingze.

She couldn't help but feel a trace of emotion in her heart.

"Such a cultivation speed would be considered astonishing even among the noble sects and immortal clans of the Great Xuanzhuo Realm."

Not far away, Daoist Shurong Chi Jianshu also raised their eyebrows slightly.

Her star-like eyes swept over Chen Lingxi.

Bai Lingze stood on the Jade Platform, his composed smile momentarily faltering.

Chen Lingxi stepped onto the blue clouds and glanced at the crowd.

Emperor Daye sat upright on the chariot, his Dao Origin surging around him, facing off against the blazing sun behind Zhao Duanxuan.

Then he saw Yu Jiangwei standing above the blue clouds, her body surrounded by swirling mist, her abyss-like eyes fixed on him.

He nodded slightly to Chi Jianshu as a greeting, then sat down cross-legged on the cloud.

The moment he sat down, the Great Sage Aura emanating from his body became even more profound and vast.

Although no lightning emanated from him, the sheer power of his aura was in no way inferior to that of anyone else present.

The powerful figures all wore different expressions.

Bai Lingze stood on the Jade Platform, looking at Chen Lingxi from afar.

"Therefore, when the Divine Sense manifested to see him, it did not see him clearly."

Now, however, this person's aura is much stronger than before.

Bai Lingze frowned.

The already restrained Thunder-Prison Heaven Dao Origin fluctuations emanating from Chen Lingxi made Bai Lingze involuntarily frown.

"Profound Root Transformation! Chen Lingxi actually Profound Root Transformation so quickly!"

He had personally witnessed Chen Lingxi's journey from the struggle for the Ancestral Mountain Mother Qi to where he was today. Back then, Chen Lingxi was just a minor Qi Circulation Realm cultivator who had barely stepped into the Dao Foundation Realm after the Battle of Seizing the Cauldron.

Now its Profound Root Transformation, Dao Origin is as deep and profound as an abyss.

Moreover, although this person sat cross-legged without uttering a word, the sheer aura emanating from him caused the surrounding clouds to freeze, making Bai Lingze's long-suppressed obsession even heavier.

He remained silent for a moment on the Jade Platform, then looked down at the Dao-Seizing Ancient Tree beneath the Heaven Gate Sea, which exuded an ancient aura.

His mind raced with thoughts.

"Chen Lingxi possesses Slaying-Force Cauldron; I am no match for Chen Lingxi."

In the battle at Ancestral Mountain, Chen Lingxi's Slaying-Force Cauldron was still intact. If they were to fight again, the chances of his avatar winning would be extremely slim.

Moreover, this person's Profound Root Transformation, and he has cultivated an unparalleled and domineering physical body. It would be unwise to confront him Mystery Mechanism -on.

"Moreover, that Dao-Seizing Ancient Tree is not something I must fight for; I already have Cauldron Vessel."

The World-Refining Furnace will be activated sooner or later... Even if Chen Lingxi was lucky enough to obtain that Cauldron Vessel, he will eventually be refined there.

If someone else obtains the Cauldron Vessel, I will then devise a plan.

"If that's the case, why should I take such a great risk for this Dao-Seizing Ancient Tree?"

Bai Lingze thought to himself.

With this in mind, he made a decision.

Without further hesitation, he quietly disappeared into the clouds and mist, the Divine Hymn emanating from him almost vanishing, and he withdrew from the battlefield like a silent shadow.

He retreated extremely carefully, concealing his presence, and flew backward along the sea of clouds at the edge of the Heaven Gate Sea.

He flew straight for hundreds of miles until the terrifying fluctuations on the Heaven Gate Sea were far behind him, until he could no longer sense the aura of those many Dao Foundation Realm experts.

Bai Lingze then slowed down and leisurely walked through the Void.

Just then, a sword light suddenly rushed towards them from the distant horizon!

The sword light contained the terrifying Thunder-Prison Heaven mechanism, as well as the dreadful radiance of the Thunder-Hiding Sword Canon.

As the sword light passed, a rift was cleaved through the sea of clouds, stretching across the sky. Lightning patterns flowed within the rift, exuding a terrifying, suffocating pressure.

Bai Lingze's pupils suddenly contracted.

The Divine Hymn from him erupted at that moment, and his many secrets —the Jade Platform Seal, the Profound-Caging Art, the Quechen Grand Seal, and many others—were activated simultaneously, transforming into dazzling jade-colored barriers that protected him!

But that sword light was too domineering!

The Unfinished Thunder of the Thunder-Prison Heaven and the Thunder-Hiding Sword Canon Thunder-Wielding Heavenly King Sword intertwined and entangled, just like the Heavenly King throwing down a thunder spear.

Where the sword light passed, the Jade Platform Seal shattered with a crash, the Profound-Caging Art crumbled inch by inch, and the Quechen Grand Seal was cleaved into countless fragments of light!

Bai Lingze's avatar was almost exhausted by the three consecutive sword strikes, but in the end, it could not withstand the destructive edge of the fourth sword.

Boom!

The sword light pierced through the last jade-colored barrier and struck Bai Lingze's avatar fiercely.

The avatar was shattered into pieces by this sword strike!

Countless fine cracks spread from his chest to his limbs, and the jade-colored essence of his avatar gushed out from the cracks, scattering into the Void like blood.

Bai Lingze roared, "Chen Lingxi!"

From the distant clouds, Chen Lingxi stepped out.

He stood atop the clouds, surrounded by lightning, with the Abyssal Heaven Spirit Sword hanging on his shoulder, its blade crackling with Weiji Thunderlight.

He lowered his head, gazing at the crumbling avatar of Bai Lingze, and spoke softly, "Fellow Daoist Bai, you escaped last time, where do you intend to run to this time?"

As Bai Lingze's avatar dissipated, his ethereal eyes stared intently at Chen Lingxi, revealing a chilling murderous intent.

A smile appeared on Chen Lingxi's lips.

"Fellow Daoist Bai, my cultivation is inferior to yours, my background is inferior to yours, yet you cannot defeat me." His voice struck Bai Lingze's mind like a heavy hammer. "Remember this, from this day forward, I will be your inner demon! As long as I live, you will never be able to take another step forward!"

Bai Lingze took a deep breath, his eyes burning with murderous intent as he met Chen Lingxi's gaze.

After a moment of silence, he suddenly spoke, his tone still arrogant, but now tinged with resentment.

"Chen Lingxi," he said slowly, "Don't think that defeating this avatar of mine means you've defeated me."

"My true form, Bai Lingze, has already cultivated to the Dao Foundation Late Stage in the Great Xuanzhuo Realm. The extent of my Divine Ability powers and the number of Spirit Artifact are far beyond what this weak avatar can compare to."

He paused, his murderous intent growing stronger. "Now that the Weiji Grotto-Heaven is about to perish, if you can leave this world alive, come to the Great Xuanzhuo Realm to find me."

"Let me show you just how vast the difference is between my avatar and my true form."

Chen Lingxi shook her head slightly, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes.

Bai Lingze's words just now, seemingly arrogant as ever, actually revealed an undisguised sense of insecurity.

His words emphasized the power of his true form, implying that the failure of his avatar was "nothing to worry about."

But when Chen Lingxi heard these words, they only meant one thing.

He was scared.

He feared that this inner demon would take root and leave hidden dangers for his true body in the Great Xuanzhuo Realm.

His so-called claim of "coming to the Great Xuanzhuo Realm to find me" is nothing more than a desperate attempt to cover up his failure.

Chen Lingxi shook her head mockingly.

With a flick of Chen Lingxi's finger, Thunder-Prison Heaven enveloped the Void.

He raised his right hand, and the Abyssal Heaven Spirit Sword fell into his palm as if it had a spirit of its own.

The sword light of the Thunder-Wielding Heavenly King Sword shone brightly once more on the blade, and a beam of sword light was unleashed.

And so, he pierced Bai Lingze's brow!

Bai Lingze shuddered, and the last glimmer of light in his eyes was completely extinguished.

The avatar was completely annihilated, turning into countless jade-colored light fragments that dissipated into the surging lightning.

Chen Lingxi his sword and stood calmly amidst the lingering shards of light.

"If even his avatar is so arrogant, how much more presumptuous must his true form be?" he muttered to himself, lightning slowly swirling in his eyes. "But regardless, this man is dead."

Just then, a booming sound of Divine Ability came from the direction of the Heaven Gate Sea in the distance!

Chen Lingxi raised an eyebrow, turned around, and flew towards the direction of the Heaven Gate Sea.

He flew two or three hundred miles and landed on the clouds above the edge of the Heaven Gate Sea. He activated the Qi Observation Technique to its maximum and looked towards the battlefield.

He saw Yu Jiangwei!

This Dao Foundation Realm expert from the Candleflame Star was standing above the azure clouds, the mist formed by his Substitute Dao Body Grand Divine Ability churning wildly around him.

She fought two against one, single-handedly battling the powerful Ling Shangyou and Daoist Shurong Chi Jianshu from the Calamity Sea.

Ling Shangyou sat cross-legged on a lotus platform amidst the clouds, his body surging silently like an Dao Origin of the Calamity Sea.

He flicked his whisk repeatedly, and with each flick, thousands of strange black threads shot towards Yu Jiangwei like a torrential rain.

Those threads may seem delicate, but they actually contain an extremely domineering corrosive power. If an ordinary Dao Foundation Realm cultivator gets even a tiny bit of them on their Dao Platform, their Dao Platform Profound Root will be eroded and corrupted by the power of the Calamity Sea.

Chi Jianshu then activated the Northern Dipper Jade Ruyi, and the phantom image of the Big Dipper above his head was spinning wildly.

Seven beams of starlight poured down, transforming into a Northern Dipper Star-Sword Formation formation, which suppressed Yu Jiangwei's other Dao Substitute Body.

Amidst the starlight, one could vaguely see longswords forged from starlight, their sharp, cold gleams sending chills down one's spine.

But Yu Jiangwei two against one and was not at a disadvantage at all!

She Dao Substitute Body two groups, each taking turns to fight against Ling Shangyou and Chi Jianshu.

The Dao Substitute Body on the left wielded a misty longsword, its swordplay extremely fierce. Each strike unleashed a misty sword light tens of feet long that traversed the sky, shattering the countless strands of whisk hair on the Ling Shangyou into pieces.

The threads formed from the Dao Origin of the Calamity Sea were twisted into nothingness under the Sword Qi.

The Dao Substitute Body on the right used the surging mist around it as a shield, blocking all of Chi Jianshu's fierce attacks from the Northern Dipper Star-Sword Formation from three zhang away.

The mist appeared soft, but it was actually extremely resilient. When the starlight sword light landed on it, it vanished without a trace, like a mud ox sinking into the sea.

The silken threads of the whisk on the Ling Shangyou grew weaker and weaker, and the brilliance of the Big Dipper in the Chi Jianshu grew dimmer and dimmer.

Yu Jiangwei, however, grew stronger with each battle, her Sword Qi becoming increasingly fierce, and the mist becoming increasingly dense.

At that moment, Yu Jiangwei's two Dao Substitute Body simultaneously swung their swords.

Two streaks of misty sword light slashed down from opposite ends of the sky, heading straight for Ling Shangyou and Chi Jianshu!

The black lotus platform beneath Ling Shangyou was shattered into pieces by this sword strike. He was sent flying backward by the residual force of the Sword Qi energy, and his Calamity Sea Dao Origin was almost completely dissipated. He crashed heavily into an uninhabited desolate mountain, stirring up a cloud of dust.

The starlight of the Big Dipper Chi Jianshu Big Dipper Jianshu's head had dimmed considerably, and the seven beams of starlight seemed about to fall.

Yu Jiangwei single-handedly battles two Dao Foundation Realm cultivators!

He was able to defeat two opponents single-handedly.

Chen Lingxi squinted and looked up at the Immortal Ranking.

On the Immortal Ranking, Yu Jiangwei ranked third, only behind Zhao Duanxuan and Ying Xian.
