In the ruins, the bricks and stones shifted.

The smoke and dust had not yet dissipated at the gap in the outer wall.

Qin Lie was half-buried in the broken bricks, his training clothes covered in white dust, and his chest heaving violently.

After exchanging several blows with Xuan Zhen, he forced himself to stand up and launch another attack.

Now I have no strength left.

Xuan Zhen hovered in mid-air, his monk's robes motionless, and the golden light from the Lotus Platform beneath his feet reflected the mess on the ground.

He looked down at the old man in the ruins.

Qin Lie's body was covered in wounds, his shoulder was broken, and both arms were broken, with the broken bones piercing through his flesh and hanging limply at his sides.

But the most fatal wound is not in the skin or flesh.

An orange-yellow jade-like Dao Infant emerged from Qin Lie's damaged flesh, emitting wisps of orange-yellow light.

The Dao Infant is exposed.

Every bit of breath lost is a bit less of life.

Xuan Zhen withdrew his palm.

At this point, there's no need to take any further action.

Next, even if he stood still and did nothing, Qin Lie would gradually die from his severe injuries.

"Amitabha."

Xuan Zhen clasped his hands together and softly chanted a Buddhist prayer.

The sound was calm, yet it carried a chilling winter's edge as it fell upon the ruins.

Qin Lie leaned against the broken wall, his arms trembling violently.

"Bald... donkey..." he uttered hoarsely, then his head slumped and he fainted.

The orange-yellow Dao Infant beneath the skin swayed slightly, then dimmed a bit more.

Xuan Zhen withdrew his gaze from Qin Lie, and suddenly looked towards the backyard of the Demon Suppression Division as if he had a premonition.

Pei Xuance sat cross-legged on the ground, his body radiating waves of energy.

At this moment, Pei's consciousness was focused solely on that Mystic Core.

Inside his core, the Dao Embryo nurtured by the dual patterns of metal and earth had been pushed to its limit.

Having wasted many years in Qingzhou, he hadn't accumulated much foundation to begin with, and now the violent demonic energy of a few Demon Core cores was the only help he could grasp.

He knew that Qin Lie had taken a lot of blame for him; otherwise, a Governor-General of a continent with decent qualifications would have been rewarded with Spiritual Root to complete his Dao Infant by serving his country well for many years.

Xuandu Abbey equally on both sides.

Qin Lie lost the Spiritual Root he had earned through hundreds of years of effort, and even suffered damage to his soul.

Although the entire monks of Lotus Flower Temple were sent to the Hundred-Thousand Demon Mountains to fight against Demon, and they paid a considerable price, so what?

He was certain he hadn't done anything wrong!

He couldn't bear to watch Qin Lie shield him from Xuan Zhen's killing intent once again.

The golden Dao Infant continuously devoured the black demonic energy, its face contorted in a ferocious expression, and it pounded the inner wall of the Mystic Core with punch after punch.

First.

Xuan Pill Pattern, and the force of the recoil made him feel a sweet taste in his throat.

The second time.

Cracks appeared on the wall of the cinnabar stone, then slowly healed.

The third time, the fourth time...

He greedily absorbed the demonic energy and essence from the Demon Core, almost frantically stimulating the Dao Infant within the Mystic Core, forcing it to use its already limited resources to forcibly shatter the core.

Finally.

Bang!

The golden Dao Infant crashed into the pill's wall with a thunderous roar, and the surface of the Mystic Core cracked rapidly!

Click click click!

Boom!!

A violent force erupted from his body, the shockwave overturning the stone table in the courtyard. Li Hanguang parried with his sword, but was still forced back seven or eight steps.

Pei Xuance slowly stood up.

Within the shattered Core Illumination Light within his body, a blurry Dao Infant emerged.

Its body was bathed in golden light, and it was shrouded in black mist.

Evil energy, like ink lines, circulated around the Dao Infant.

In an instant, the entire Demon Suppression Division was enveloped by a sharp killing intent.

The Demon-Suppressing Captain felt a chill run down their spines, as if someone had drawn a sword and placed it against their necks.

Pei Xuance took a step forward.

In the next instant, he stood in front of Qin Lie, protecting the dissipating orange-yellow Dao Infant behind him.

His eyes blazed with golden light, and his body was surrounded by sharp golden energy and black demonic aura, exuding a chilling aura.

Xuan Zhen hovered in mid-air, a clear look of surprise on his face.

Unexpectedly, Pei Xuance chose this moment to attempt to break through to the Dao-Infant Realm.

But he quickly saw through Pei Xuance and commented calmly, "He used the demonic energy to break through his cultivation level; although he was determined, his foundation was completely destroyed."

Pei Xuance did not answer.

He immediately drew his gun.

The gun is not a physical object, but rather a manifestation of the energy of heaven and earth drawn by the Dao Infant, appearing at a thought.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Golden and black spear beams appeared out of thin air around Xuan Zhen, carrying a sharp intent to destroy everything and an inescapable demonic aura, all rushing out to kill!

Xuan Zhen neither dodged nor avoided.

A golden Lotus Platform unfolded beneath his feet, its petals spreading out layer by layer, and Zen light descended.

"Suppression."

The Buddha's light transformed into chains that emerged from behind him, binding the countless spear beams in the sky.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The spear's edge clashed with the chain, the metallic clang as dense as a sudden downpour.

"To achieve this much at the initial stage of the Dao Infant is already excellent." Mystic Core commented calmly, but then his expression changed drastically as he thought of his gifted but short-lived disciple.

"But you shouldn't have appeared in front of me again."

"That would make me want to kill you!"

Xuan Zhen seized an opening and vanished from the Lotus Platform.

When he reappeared, a Buddha's palm was already imprinted on Pei Xuance's chest.

Boom!!

A burst of golden light erupted as Pei Xuance crashed into the Demon Suppression Division's courtyard. The walls behind him crumbled layer by layer, sending dust billowing into the sky.

In the ruins of the compound, Pei Xuance's chest was caved in. He slowly stood up, supporting himself against a broken pillar, trying to control the violent power clashing within his body.

A mouthful of blood welled up inside him, but he swallowed it back.

A second mouthful of blood surged up, and he could no longer hold it in, spitting it out, his breastplate splattered with blood.

The golden and black Dao Infant in his Qi Sea was forcibly fused together by him in a very short time, so the two were not perfectly integrated.

Xuan Zhen's attack was specifically aimed at the soul, and coupled with his many years of experience in the Dao-Infant Realm, he possessed profound knowledge and skills, and with just one strike, he cracked his Dao Infant.

At this moment, every slight movement felt like my soul was about to break apart.

Xuan Zhen didn't rush to finish off the enemy.

He hovered in mid-air, looking down.

Looking at Qin Lie, unconscious behind the broken wall, at Pei Xuance coughing up blood in the ruins, and at the Demonic Baleful Intent Dao Infant on the other's body about to collapse, he said calmly:

"The fate of Qingzhou ends here today."

The words seemed to resonate deep within the hearts of every Demon Suppression Division in the distance.

The Demon Suppression Division was shaken.

Even if the others wanted to make a move, they were completely suppressed by the pressure released by Xuan Zhen. That pressure was like a mountain, and even Li Hanguang could not move an inch.

On the long street outside the gate, the Demon Suppression Guard gripped their weapons tightly.

Some people looked desperate, and their grip on the knife loosened little by little.

It's not that I don't want to charge forward, it's that I can't.

The old monk on that Lotus Platform was unstoppable even by the Governor-General and General Pei; what are these Mystic Core and the Aperture Opening compared to him rushing up there?

Can we just stand by and watch, letting them trample on Qingzhou at will?

For a moment, the Demon Suppression Division fell into silence.

Just then...

A golden light suddenly appeared on the horizon.

At first, it was just a distant point of light.

The next instant, the golden light suddenly lengthened, stretching across the sky with a long tail of light, and shot straight toward the direction of the Demon Division of Qingzhou Town!
