Nationwide Development: Spend Billions in Advance to Bind the Empress

Chapter 283 Annihilating the Great Sage! Destroying the Heavenly Zen Holy Sect!

"Hiss!!!" The saints from various forces gazing at the starry sky were filled with horror, their throats feeling incredibly dry:

'One punch...killed nine saints?!'

Hearing is unreliable, seeing is believing.

The combat power that Ling Qingxue displayed at this moment made all the Saints watching feel terrified!

Ling Qingxue did indeed enter the Saint Realm, but the problem was that she only had one Saint Inscription surrounding her.

In other words, she is currently only at the first level of the Saint realm!

To be able to kill nine veteran saints with a single move upon entering the Saint Realm is truly terrifying!

At that moment, an ancient, furious roar echoed from the depths of the sacred land:

"Dao Kong! How dare you betray the Holy Land!!!"

Rumble!

A figure, even more powerful than a saint, rose from the ground.

Due to its excessive speed, the old man's remaining purple-gold light burned a huge black hole in the void.

"With the Venerable Ancestor's intervention, victory is assured!!" roared the powerful figure from the Heavenly Zen Holy Sect.

'The Supreme Ancestor of the Holy Sect?!' Looking at the heaven-burning flames and the purple-gold flowing light, all the cultivators were utterly shocked.

"My God! Master Jue Wu has actually reached the Great Sage Realm?!"

In an era when no Emperor-level powerhouses existed, Great Sages were the pinnacle of the world, but very few of them survived.

I never imagined that the Heavenly Zen Holy Sect had such a profound foundation!

'Huh?' Suddenly!

The powerful onlookers discovered that their view of the battlefield above was no longer visible; it was clearly being blocked.

Starry Sky Battlefield.

The moment the Holy Ancestor Jue Wu appeared, he sealed off heaven and earth and directly activated the Infant Fiend Seed between his eyebrows.

A crimson glow emanated from the torn space between his eyebrows.

A blood-red infant covered in demonic markings sat within, a ferocious grin on its face, staring intently at Ling Qingxue in front of it.

"Ling Qingxue, Dao Kong, you are the first people to see my Quasi-Emperor Infant Fiend Seed!"

An old man and a baby spoke at the same time, creating an extremely eerie scene:

"I'll show you what it means to..."

"Shut up!" Ling Qingxue interrupted his nonsense with a cold shout. A bronze ancient palace the size of a fist flew out from between her brows with a divine light.

She can fight against a quasi-emperor.

But dealing with such a disgusting cultivator is best done quickly and easily.

The moment the ancient bronze palace burst forth with celestial light.

Whoosh!

The pitch-black starry sky was as if it were draped in a dazzling layer of colorful clouds.

But this dazzling scene contains an extreme killing intent!

"Ah!!!" The pressure of the immortal artifact struck, and Jue Wu clutched his head and screamed in agony.

The nascent spirit seed between his eyebrows was melted by the celestial glow illuminating his body, causing blood to gush out.

"I follow the Eternal Emperor! How dare you!!!" The Infant Fiend screamed, trying to crawl out of Jue Wu's brain and escape.

Under the pressure of the immortal artifact, it couldn't even move. It was crushed on the spot along with Jue Wu, turning into blood mist that drifted into the starry sky.

"This!" Dao Kong, who was watching the battle, looked in disbelief at Jue Wu, whose body and soul had been destroyed, and the ancient bronze palace that flew back to Ling Qingxue's brow.

A cultivator with the strength of a quasi-Emperor was actually... actually killed instantly?!

In particular, Lin Qingxue's bronze ancient palace gave him a sense of transcendence and etherealness, as if it were something that should not exist in the human world.

'Could this be a celestial artifact?' Even Dao Kong was startled by his own thought:

'Amitabha Buddha, do not look at what is improper...'

Whether it's a celestial artifact or not, it's none of his business. He's already fortunate enough to have eradicated the evil cultivators of the Holy Sect.

After Ling Qingxue put away Jue Wu's spatial ring, she looked at Dao Kong:

"If the Holy Sect is full of heretical cultivators, I will destroy it."

"Alas!" Dao Kong knew in his heart that the Holy Sect was doomed to be destroyed today.

This is because the Holy Sect colluded with Liu Ruyan and even ambushed Ling Qingxue in the Icefield Forbidden Zone.

This is a blood feud!

Even if he pleaded for mercy, given Ling Qingxue's decisive and ruthless nature, nothing would change.

'Cause and effect, retribution...' Thinking of this, Dao Kong bowed respectfully.

"Please wait a moment, Fellow Daoist Ling, while I go and take those innocent disciples away."

After saying that, the old man slipped away.

The cultivators below watched Dao Kong fall from the void into the Holy Sect, utterly bewildered:

"It's Master Daokong?!"

Just now, the Great Sage Jue Wu said that Dao Kong was a traitor. Now, can he let him go?

'Could it be that the battle is already over?!' Everyone looked at each other, their faces full of doubt.

'Ling Qingxue's celestial music should be able to rival the Great Sage's, so how could it have ended so quickly?'

With Ling Qingxue's combat prowess and the enhancement of the Emperor Weapon in her hands, everyone believed that she could contend with a Great Saint Realm expert!

At least we won't lose so quickly.

unless……

'I've heard that Master Daokong has a deep connection with Yaochi. It's very likely that Master Daokong tricked Ling Qingxue!' The onlookers murmured to themselves.

'Old ginger is spicier; another genius has fallen.'

'Even the Ling family's strongest members haven't appeared? This family's laissez-faire approach to raising their members is truly ruthless...'

But they soon got their answer.

Whoosh!

A blurry figure descended from the sky with astonishing force.

Those with exceptional eyesight from all sides exclaimed in surprise upon seeing Ling Qingxue wielding a large bone club:

"It's Ling Qingxue! She won!!"

"They actually defeated the Great Sage?! In such a short time?!"

"Holy crap! A sage and a great sage are completely different concepts. How could she defeat someone from a higher realm?!"

"Is this the aura of an emperor?! Truly terrifying!!!"

At this moment, everyone finally understood why Dao Kong had come down.

Because the old man brought out many disciples from the sacred land within the Heavenly Zen Holy Sect.

next moment!

Ling Qingxue, in the void, swung her Qilin Bone Club with all her might.

Whew!!

Amidst the howling wind, the bone club instantly grew larger, smashing down like a giant hammer onto the sacred mountain gate that had been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years!

Seeing the protective mountain formation crumble under the bone club, unable to withstand even a single breath, the evil cultivators from the sacred land, who had no time to escape, were filled with despair.

"Do not!!!"

Rumble! ...

The earth trembled and dust flew up with the single blow.

The powerful shockwave spread outwards, tearing everything in the holy land to pieces with overwhelming force.

"Hmph, finally this cancer has been eradicated!" Ling Qingxue, having retrieved her bone club, coldly gazed at the smoke-filled ruins below.

They didn't even know she was following the Eternal Emperor, or that she possessed a celestial artifact. Clearly, Liu Ruyan hadn't told the Holy Sect about this; she was merely using them as pawns.

Just then.

She sensed a strange energy emanating from the ruins below, and with a light touch of her toes, she arrived at the Holy Sect's underground.

Judging from the lingering sacred aura around, this should be the secluded cultivation place of the Holy Sect's patriarchs.

Ahead, a black stone the size of a spirit stone had been smashed into the ground, emitting a faint light.

'It's quite sturdy...' Ling Qingxue waved her hand to summon the black stone, and tried to probe it with her divine sense. She then heard a hoarse whisper:

"Fellow Daoist Jue Wu, why is the Evil Sound Stone emitting such violent energy vibrations? What's going on?!"

Ling Qingxue's eyes flickered, recalling Jue Wu's tone from before. Her Adam's apple bobbed as she suppressed her voice and mimicked his words:

"A mysterious powerful figure is attacking the Holy Sect; it seems the matter of the Infant Fiend Seed has been exposed."
