The main hall was stained with blood; it was a horrifying sight.
The sudden turn of events stunned the group of Peak Martial Artist at the Mountain Sea Realm.
Especially after the three top-ranking prodigies were executed in an instant, the thick stench of blood filled the entire hall, and a sense of panic spread.
At this moment, even the Peak Martial Artist would know what kind of being they had provoked!
"Walk!"
The moment the folding fan shattered, someone cried out in terror, and everyone immediately turned and used their own techniques to flee at top speed through the interconnected passages of the main hall.
They never imagined that anyone would dare to slaughter them, these scions of noble families, so wantonly!
Even those rogue cultivators from the Western Region who often claim to be "unburdened" have to weigh whether they can pose a threat to them before taking action, or how to deal with the Golden Pursuit Order from various major forces afterward.
But this young Daoist priest who suddenly appeared before them showed no hesitation when he made his move, and now he showed no sign of stopping!
A sudden, intense sense of impending death gripped everyone's hearts.
A deep fear welled up in their hearts, and they desperately wanted to escape this so-called place of opportunity!
As they glanced at the purple-robed figure disappearing again, the group of aristocratic scions felt their blood run cold.
"Senior!"
One of the young men, dressed in hemp robes, was the first to break down, shouting behind him, "I am the sole disciple of the Supreme Elder Martial Cauldron Hall. His cultivation is profound, and he is a Half-step Great Power who has condensed Dharma Form Image. For the sake of the Four Extremes Hall, I beg you to spare my life!"
Before he could finish speaking, an ancient and mysterious giant lightning seal swept in at an incomprehensible speed, directly shattering his physical body without leaving even a trace of flesh or blood!
Only the faint echoes of their earlier pleas for mercy still lingered in the Cave Abode.
"Madman... madman!!"
Everyone felt a chill run down their spines, and one of the women in green who was with them instantly reddened her eyes, her voice trembling with sobs. "We have no grudge against you, and we never intended to harm you. Why are you treating us like this?!"
"Lie."
Just then, a slightly indifferent young voice rang in everyone's ears.
It was a very simple sentence, yet it sounded like a death sentence for them.
Immediately afterwards, one after another, young faces filled with fear were illuminated by an incredibly dazzling bolt of lightning!
Boom!!--
The dark Cave Abode was torn apart by dazzling white lightning, illuminating Ye Li's composed face, his clear black eyes filled with tranquility.
The perfected [Great Dao Thunder Seal], when unleashed by him now at the Half-step Sun-Moon realm, naturally possessed the power to easily obliterate a group of ants and scum in the Mountain Sea Realm.
Even before revealing their identities, they all wanted to snatch food from him.
Ye Li didn't even dare to imagine the unfair treatment he would face if he revealed his identity as a rogue cultivator.
With the blessing of [Good Fortune Avoids Calamity], his perception was extremely sharp, and he could even detect the most subtle changes in emotion.
Since the other party intended to kill us first, they shouldn't blame us for being ruthless and merciless.
"Ghost Poison Sect, Sky Dragon City, Nine Dao Sacred Land, Martial Cauldron Hall..."
Ye Li casually counted on his fingers, but the smile on his lips couldn't be stopped from widening.
That was really an accident.
They only wanted to explore this so-called mysterious Cave Abode, but they never expected to offend so many prestigious sects in the Western Region.
Besides these, there seems to be the Universe Treasure Hall, which has already been offended to death.
Hopefully, their retaliation will come soon, or they will make a public statement in the Western Region.
Ye Li had high hopes for this.
[Publicly killed Personal Disciple the Martial Cauldron Hall at the sixth level of the Mountain Sea Realm, Malice Points +!]
[Publicly killed...]
[Current Malice Points: Points!]
The sound of heavenly music filled the air.
Ye Li's backstage Malice Points has also successfully broken through the million mark, reaching an unprecedented level.
The parties involved expressed great satisfaction with this.
Therefore, it is clear that for him, a place where many geniuses gather can be considered a treasure land for achieving the Dao.
"..."
Ye Li led the dozen or so souls back to the main hall, then took out the three luminous figures he had obtained earlier, skillfully used Divine Fire to slowly refine them, and floated them beside him.
Then, he took a light step and his figure darted into the depths of the Cave Abode.
The ultimate goal of this trip is to obtain the [Creation Method] from the Prefectural Lord.
Although, given the current balance of Malice Points, forcibly deriving a perfect [Creation Method] is not too difficult.
But since we're already here...
Ye Li still intends to proceed according to the previous plan.
As the distance increased, many more protective Array Formation similar to those used for the Treasure Medicine in the main hall appeared.
The information recorded on the [Divine Communication Paper] is true; this Cave Abode was indeed left behind by a powerhouse at the Half-step Sun-Moon Realm.
Besides the dazzling array of treasures, the numerous mechanisms and traps within also demonstrate the considerable thought and effort put into their design.
The owner of this Cave Abode may have had a hoarding personality.
However, the defensive Array Formation he set up could only be effective against martial artists at the Mountain Sea Realm.
For Ye Li, who was also at the Half-step Sun-Moon Realm, it had no effect whatsoever as an obstacle.
We arrived at the core area without any hindrance.
Ye Li had already acquired quite a few decent rare Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and he stored them all in his own Storage Ring.
Finally, after shattering the Slaughter Array of the core Cave Abode with a single palm strike.
Ye Li slowly walked through the bronze gate.
There was no dust in the air here, and a quiet and peaceful main hall came into view.
There were no defensive Array Formation set up inside the main hall, and the furnishings around it were exceptionally simple. On the layered steps, there was an ancient and serene stone coffin, with emerald green light spilling out from the cracks.
As he walked up the steps, Ye Li raised his hand and pushed open the stone coffin.
The green light then filled the entire main hall, and a vibrant emerald green heart, along with a similarly luminous white Jade Slip, rose from the stone coffin.
Without a sound, the pressure of Half-step Great Power swept out.
If I'm not mistaken, this emerald green heart is what that Half-step Great Power being left behind.
As for that white Jade Slip...
Ye Li reached out and grasped it, then quietly focused his mind, and a relevant prompt immediately appeared on his own panel:
[A-Grade Creation Method. Sky Crying World-Containing Method (Beginner)]
[Upgradeable]
Just then...
Under Ye Li's somewhat surprised gaze.
The emerald green heart seemed to have met some trigger condition, and suddenly it shone brightly. A graceful and illusory figure appeared, with a youthful face and a refined demeanor. As soon as he appeared, he smiled and looked in Ye Li's direction.
However, after sensing the vast amount of vital Blood Vitality from the person before him...
The refined man's face twitched slightly, almost losing his composure, and he immediately spoke up, sounding somewhat incredulous:
"Half-step Sun-Moon?!"
PS: I'll make up for it at 3 PM tomorrow.
