Chapter 1433 Slaying Six Supreme Saints
Inside the palace atop the sacred mountain of Tianxing City, the air was thick with spiritual energy, yet it exuded an indescribable sense of decay and solemnity. The true rulers of the Star Palace, the Twin Saints of Tianxing who had dominated the chaotic star sea for centuries—Ling Xiaofeng and Wen Qing—sat facing each other. Both appeared to be middle-aged, but their eyes betrayed the weariness and desolation etched by time.
At this moment, the jade slip in front of them was playing a series of light and shadow recordings of what had happened on the city gate tower not long ago, especially the scenes of Qin Hao catching the Heavenly Net Golden Light Sword with his bare hands, throwing back the Heavenly Net True Thunder, and killing Jin Kui with a strange blue flame in the blink of an eye. After the recording finished playing, the palace fell into a brief silence.
Ling Xiaofeng and Wen Qing exchanged a glance, both seeing undisguised shock, as well as a complex mix of relief and worry in each other's eyes.
"This child... has he truly progressed from the mid-stage Nascent Soul realm to the late-stage peak in just a century?" Ling Xiaofeng's voice was low, tinged with disbelief. While they had high hopes for their son-in-law's talent and opportunities back then, they never imagined it would be this extraordinary! Late-stage Nascent Soul, and at its peak—this was already on par with them, and even surpassed them in terms of the sheer volume of his spiritual energy!
Wen Qing sighed softly, his eyes filled with complex emotions: "His fortune is profound and his encounters are extraordinary, far beyond our comprehension. It is truly a great blessing for Ling'er to have such a Daoist partner. With him by her side, even if the two of us pass away in the future, Ling'er can secure her position as Palace Master and take charge of the Star Palace without much trouble."
Ling Xiaofeng nodded, but his brows furrowed slightly: "Fortune may be a harbinger of misfortune. This boy's progress is terrifyingly rapid, and his methods are so decisive and ruthless. Now that he has grown strong, his strength is comparable to or even surpasses ours. If he develops other intentions in the future, Ling'er, with her gentle nature, I'm afraid..."
He didn't finish his sentence, but Wen Qing already understood. Their lives were nearing their end, and their greatest concern was their only daughter, Ling Yuling, and the foundation of the Star Palace. Qin Hao's appearance was a shot in the arm, but its potent effect inevitably aroused suspicion.
Just then, a report came from outside the hall that Ling Yuling and Qin Hao had arrived.
"Father, Mother!" Ling Yuling's face was filled with the joy of surviving a disaster and the excitement of seeing her parents as she strode into the hall. Qin Hao followed behind her, his steps steady and his expression calm.
"Ling'er!" When Wen Qing saw his beloved daughter, his eyes flashed with affection. He stood up and embraced her, carefully examining her. Only when he saw that she was unharmed did he feel completely relieved.
After exchanging greetings and brief pleasantries, Ling Xiaofeng's gaze fell upon Qin Hao, filled with scrutiny and admiration: "My dear son-in-law, it's been a century since we last met, and your cultivation has improved so much! You are truly a genius unparalleled throughout history! Jin Kui brought this upon himself, and you dealt with him cleanly and efficiently. Very good!"
Qin Hao smiled calmly: "Father-in-law, you flatter me. I was just lucky to have some opportunities. Jin Kui has ulterior motives. I should make a clean break and not leave any future trouble."
“Yes, decisiveness and ruthlessness are the true colors of a hero.” Ling Xiaofeng stroked his beard and nodded, exchanging a glance with Wen Qing.
Wen Qing understood, gently patted her daughter's hand to calm her down, then looked at Qin Hao, her tone becoming solemn: "My dear son-in-law, you are now the pillar of our Star Palace. The Reverse Star Alliance is besieging the city, and Liu Dao and Wan Sangu have wolfish ambitions. This battle is inevitable. Your father-in-law and I... have little time left to live, and there are some things that need to be arranged in advance."
As she spoke, she took out a jade slip that shimmered with a faint five-colored light and handed it to Qin Hao: "This is the complete cultivation method of my Star Palace's supreme secret technique—'Primordial Magnetic Divine Light.' This divine power is infinitely powerful. If one can master it, few below the Nascent Soul stage will be able to defeat it. However... to cultivate this technique, one must resonate with the aura of the Primordial Magnetic Divine Mountain and be drawn by it, making it difficult to stray far. Your father-in-law and I were restricted by this and were trapped in Tianxing City for many years."
Ling Xiaofeng continued, "Today, I pass on this technique to you in the hope that you will inherit our mantle, and together with Ling'er, manage the Star Palace to ensure the survival of our lineage. However... cultivating this technique also means that you must reside permanently in Tianxing City, connected to the Qi of Yuanci Divine Mountain. My dear son-in-law, are you willing?"
Their words were earnest, yet their eyes held a subtle hint of probing and expectation. They were passing on the "Primordial Magnetic Divine Light," a supreme technique and an invisible shackle, to Qin Hao. While this certainly implied a desire for inheritance and reliance, a deeper purpose was perhaps to use it to completely bind this fierce tiger, Qin Hao, to the Star Palace and the Primordial Magnetic Divine Mountain, ensuring that his future would not slip out of their control or even turn against them.
Qin Hao understood perfectly well, and sneered inwardly. How could he not know their scheme? The Primordial Magnetic Divine Light was indeed a top-tier divine ability, and the Primordial Magnetic Divine Mountain was something he was determined to obtain! But he possessed the Void Heaven Cauldron, which contained the remnant soul of the Spirit Realm Cave Heaven Rat King's avatar! As long as he could extract from it the method to complete his Five Elements Spiritual Roots, this so-called "shackle" would become the "key" and "assistance" for him to advance to the Nascent Soul stage!
He accepted the jade slip with both hands and solemnly said, "I am deeply grateful for your kindness, Father-in-law and Mother-in-law! I will diligently practice this divine skill and live up to your expectations. As for staying in Tianxing City... being able to accompany Ling'er and protect the Star Palace's foundation is simply my duty. How can I say whether I am willing or not?"
Seeing Qin Hao's quick agreement and composed expression, Ling Xiaofeng and Wen Qing felt somewhat relieved, and their worries dissipated considerably.
"Good! Good! With such a son-in-law, what more could a husband ask for!" Ling Xiaofeng laughed loudly, and the atmosphere immediately eased.
Immediately, the four began to discuss how to resolve the threat posed by the Reverse Star Alliance outside the city.
Wen Qing gently stroked Ling Yuling's smooth long hair, a hint of determination and affection flashing in his eyes: "Ling'er, your father and I originally planned that when our lifespans were about to end, we would risk our souls and bodies to self-destruct our nascent souls in order to eliminate the two greatest threats to you: the Six Paths and Aunt Wan San..."
"Mother! No!" Upon hearing this, Ling Yuling's face turned deathly pale, and she tightly gripped Wen Qing's arm.
Wen Qing gently comforted her, "Don't rush, let me finish. There's no need to take this desperate path now. Your husband is already a great cultivator with profound cultivation, no weaker than Wan Sangu. As long as he can hold Wan Sangu back for a while, your father and I can join forces and use all our strength to kill Liu Dao Ji Sheng as quickly as possible! Once Liu Dao is dead, the Reverse Star Alliance will surely collapse. At that time, we can then work together to deal with Wan Sangu, and the overall situation will be settled!"
Ling Yuling was slightly relieved, but still looked at Qin Hao with concern.
Ling Xiaofeng looked intently at Qin Hao: "My dear son-in-law, to be honest, your mother-in-law and I only have twenty or thirty years left to live. While we still have the strength to fight, we must eliminate this major threat for you! After we pass away, you and Ling'er will become the new generation of 'Twin Saints of the Heavenly Stars'! Everything in this Star Palace will be yours!"
His words were sincere, carrying the weight of entrusting his affairs after death, and also drawing a clear blueprint for the future transfer of power.
Qin Hao solemnly cupped his hands: "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, rest assured, your son-in-law will do his utmost to hold off Aunt Wan and create an opportunity for you two to kill Liu Dao!"
"Haha, good! As long as my son-in-law can hold that crazy woman off for a while, my wife and I will surely be able to kill that demon Liudao, and then join forces with you to suppress Wan Sangu!" Ling Xiaofeng was full of heroic spirit, as if he had returned to the days when he roamed the chaotic star sea.
……
Three days later.
Outside Tianxing City, the battle flags of the Reverse Star Alliance blotted out the sky, fluttering loudly. Wan Sangu, dressed in purple robes, stood at the forefront of the formation, her Heavenly Net Golden Light Sword hovering above her head, radiating a chilling sword intent. Behind her, the Reverse Star Alliance cultivators formed a formidable array, their demonic and spiritual energies intertwined, creating a powerful and imposing sight. Wan Sangu was channeling her full magical power, her voice echoing across the surrounding area, fiercely challenging and hurling insults, attempting to provoke the Star Palace into battle.
Just as the morale of the Reverse Star Alliance was soaring and the pressure on the Star Palace defenders was increasing—
"Buzz!"
At the summit of the sacred mountain, three incredibly powerful beams of light suddenly shone forth, like three blazing suns descending. With the force of thunder, they pierced the sky and landed outside the Heavenly Star City formation in the blink of an eye, facing the Reverse Star Alliance camp from afar!
The light dissipated, revealing four figures. In the center were Qin Hao and Ling Yuling, while on either side stood Ling Xiaofeng and Wen Qing, who hadn't made a public appearance in centuries!
"The Twin Saints of the Celestial Stars?!"
"They...they must have passed away long ago?!"
"How is that possible! Aren't they supposed to be forbidden from leaving Tianxing City?!"
The Anti-Star Alliance camp instantly erupted into chaos, with shouts and commotion filling the air!
The reputation of the Twin Saints of the Heavenly Stars is built upon countless bloody battles, casting a shadow over the entire cultivation world of the Chaotic Star Sea for hundreds of years! Even though they have not shown themselves for a long time, their accumulated prestige is enough to make many cultivators of the Reverse Star Alliance tremble with fear!
If it weren't for the Six Paths Supreme Saint and Wan Sangu joining forces to give them confidence, who would dare to face these two evil stars head-on?
High in the sky, the Six Paths Supreme Saint, who had been sitting steadily in the center, suddenly narrowed his pupils, and alarm bells rang in his mind!
"Damn it! How could they possibly break free from the shackles of the Primordial Magnetic Divine Mountain?!" A strong sense of foreboding enveloped him. The fact that the Twin Saints of Heavenly Stars could appear meant that their control over the Primordial Magnetic Divine Light might have exceeded expectations, or that they had other reliance on it. Today's battle was unlikely to end well!
However, before he could make a decision to adjust or retreat, Ling Xiaofeng and Wen Qing had already made their move!
"Six Paths Demon, prepare to die!"
The couple, their hearts in perfect harmony, needed no words. One on the left, one on the right, they transformed into two astonishing rainbows, one blue and one white, ignoring the densely packed Reverse Star Alliance cultivators in the middle, and charged straight towards the core of the central army where the Six Paths Supreme Saint was located! Wherever they passed, their bodies emitted a strange, hazy radiance—the Primordial Magnetic Divine Light! This light did not belong to the Five Elements, yet it was specifically designed to counter the Five Elements magical treasures and spiritual power!
Those Reverse Star Alliance cultivators who attempted to intercept them lost much of their spiritual power and even plummeted out of control once their flying swords and magical treasures were struck by the gray light! Even worse, some were affected by the aftershocks of the divine light, their protective spiritual light shattering like bubbles, and their entire bodies, along with their primordial spirits, were crushed into dust by the strange magnetic force!
In an instant, chaos erupted at the front lines of the Reverse Star Alliance as the two of them carved a bloody path through the enemy lines, heading straight for the Six Paths Supreme Saint!
"Quickly kill that brat surnamed Zhang, then come and help me! I can't hold out for long!" The Six Paths Supreme Saint was both shocked and furious, and hurriedly transmitted his voice to Wan Sangu in front of the formation.
He knew that he was not afraid of either of the two Heavenly Saints alone, but with the two of them working together, especially since they had cultivated the strange divine power of Yuan Magnetic Divine Light, he had no chance of winning. He could only hope that Wan Sangu would deal with Qin Hao as soon as possible, and then they could fight together.
Upon hearing the telepathic message, Wan Sangu's face darkened, her gaze fixed intently on Qin Hao. Without uttering a sound, purple lightning flashed around her, and the Heavenly Net Golden Light Sword emitted a clear and melodious sword cry. Man and sword became one, transforming into a destructive purple-gold stream of light that shot towards Qin Hao! Her aura was three times stronger than it had been three days ago, clearly indicating that she was truly enraged and wanted to end the battle quickly!
"Good timing!" Qin Hao's eyes flashed, and he whispered "Be careful" to Ling Yuling beside him before heading straight for her.
However, just as Wan Sangu's sword light was about to strike, Qin Hao flicked his sleeve, and the Black Wind Banner was already in his hand. He waved it gently!
"call--!"
The space twisted and fluctuated, and Wan Sangu felt the scene before her suddenly change. She and Qin Hao were now in a boundless, isolated space with only a faint light. All the noise, atmosphere, and even the spiritual energy of heaven and earth outside were isolated!
"Spatial magic weapon? A mere trifle! Watch me break it with my strength!" Although Wan Sangu was shocked, she remained calm and shouted, her Heavenly Net Golden Light Sword bursting forth with boundless light, about to forcibly tear this space apart.
Meanwhile, on the outside battlefield.
Seeing Qin Hao and Wan Sangu disappear simultaneously, Ling Yuling knew her husband had already used his methods, and her heart calmed down slightly. She took a deep breath, raised the command flag in her hand, and her clear, cold voice resounded throughout the Star Palace camp: "Star Palace disciples, heed my command! The Reverse Star Alliance has wreaked havoc in the seas, and today they shall be executed! Follow me—kill!"
"kill!!!"
The Star Palace cultivators, who had been feeling stifled for a long time, were greatly encouraged by the appearance of Ling Yuling and the Twin Saints of Heavenly Star. Like a flood that had been released, they charged towards the chaotic Reverse Star Alliance camp under the leadership of the elders!
The Reverse Star Alliance was already in disarray due to the surprise attack by the Twin Saints of Heavenly Stars and the fact that Wan Sangu was tied up. Now, seeing the Star Palace army coming, they were even more terrified.
Amidst this chaotic battle, within the Reverse Star Alliance camp, two almost identical old men, dressed in blue robes and exuding a cold and eerie aura—the Blue Clan Twin Demons—exchanged a glance, their eyes flashing with deep-seated hatred and a hint of madness.
"Brother, the opportunity has arrived! The Twin Saints of Tianxing are entangled with the Holy Lord, and that Zhang fellow has disappeared without a trace. It's the perfect time to take revenge!" one of them transmitted, his voice like the hiss of a venomous snake.
"Heh heh, not bad! Let's kill Ling Xiaofeng and Wen Qing's precious daughter first, so they can also taste the pain of losing a loved one!" another man sneered. The two brothers had committed many evil deeds in their early years and were hunted down by the Twin Saints of Tianxing until they had nowhere to run. In the end, they had no choice but to use a secret technique to fake their death and escape. They lived in hiding for hundreds of years, and their hatred for the Twin Saints of Tianxing had long been boundless.
At that moment, the two demons moved like ghosts, avoiding the main battlefield, and like two venomous snakes, silently attacked Ling Yuling, who was commanding the battle at the core of the Star Palace camp! Both of them had reached the peak of the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and when they joined forces, their tacit understanding was even more perfect, and their power was multiplied.
In an instant, they broke through the Star Palace Guardian Circle around Ling Yuling and appeared in front of her like two blue lightning bolts!
"You little bitch! Your parents made us brothers like stray dogs back then, and today we'll collect some interest from you!" The two demons of the Lan Clan shouted in unison, their voices shrill. Their four withered, claw-like hands, carrying a foul stench and deadly poison, viciously clawed down towards Ling Yuling's head and heart! The speed was astonishing!
Ling Yuling had only recently formed her Nascent Soul, and she was greatly alarmed by the sudden attack from two peak mid-Nascent Soul cultivators. It was too late for her to dodge!
However, at this critical moment——
"Hmph! Who dares to harm the mistress of the house!"
A cold, aged snort filled with anger rang out! Ling Yuling felt the spirit beast pouch that Qin Hao had given her earlier tremble violently at her waist, and a gray shadow shot out like a cannonball, instantly blocking her way!
That was an ugly and fierce-looking old woman holding a black short stick. She was none other than Gui Ling, the level ten demon beast that Qin Hao had left in the spirit beast bag to protect Ling Yuling!
The moment Gui Ling appeared, its terrifying demonic power, belonging to a level ten demon beast and comparable to a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, erupted without reservation! The oppressive aura, almost tangible, instantly enveloped the Lan Clan's twin demons!
The sinister smiles on the faces of the Lan Clan's twin demons froze instantly, replaced by boundless horror and disbelief!
"A level 10... level 10 monster?!"
"Impossible! How could there be a level ten demon beast in Tianxing City that obeys orders?!"
The two gasped in shock, as if they had seen a ghost. Even Ling Yuling herself was dumbfounded. She knew Qin Hao had given her a spirit beast pouch for self-defense, but she never expected that it contained such a terrifying thing!
"Hmph! Two ignorant brats, how dare you be so presumptuous in front of your ancestor? Die!" Gui Ling was already furious because Qin Hao had forcibly subdued her and sent her to protect a "little girl," so she took out her anger on these two unlucky fools who had run into the line of fire.
She didn't even use many supernatural powers; she simply swung the seemingly ordinary black short stick in her hand and smashed it down on the Lan Clan's twin demons!
This smash, though seemingly slow, seemed to lock onto space, carrying a terrifying force capable of crushing mountains!
The two demons of the Lan clan were horrified and desperately activated their protective magic treasures and demonic arts, causing blue light and black energy to surge out wildly.
however--
"Pfft! Pfft!"
"Crack! Boom!"
Like smashing two fragile eggs, the protective magic treasures and demonic energy of the Lan Clan's Twin Demons, which were strong enough to withstand the onslaught of a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, were instantly pulverized like paper under Gui Ling's staff! Immediately afterwards, their physical bodies were smashed apart like tattered sacks by the unparalleled force, turning into two clouds of blood mist! They didn't even have time to let out a complete scream!
The force of the staff did not diminish, engulfing the two Nascent Soul cultivators who were trying to escape. With a gentle stir, it pulverized their souls along with them, utterly destroying them both!
From the sudden attack by the two demons to Gui Ling's appearance, and then to the instant killing of the two demons, the whole process took only two or three breaths!
quiet!
The surrounding Star Palace cultivators and the nearby Reverse Star Alliance cultivators were all dumbfounded, and for a moment they even forgot about the battle.
A level ten demon beast! A being comparable to a great cultivator! How could it be so obedient to Ling Yuling, instantly killing two infamous Nascent Soul stage peak demons with a wave of its hand? This shock is even more astonishing than the appearance of the Heavenly Star Twin Saints just now!
"Senior Guiling, thank you..." Ling Yuling came back to her senses and quickly thanked Guiling.
Gui Ling waved her hand: "Mistress, there's no need to be so polite. It was just my master's order."
After saying that, she swept her fierce gaze over the stunned Reverse Star Alliance cultivators around her, scaring them into retreating one after another. They dared not approach Ling Yuling even a fraction of a second.
"Elder Ling is mighty! Kill!" Someone was the first to react and let out an excited shout.
Instantly, the morale of the Star Palace cultivators soared to its peak, their battle cries shaking the heavens and earth as they charged fiercely towards the Reverse Star Alliance camp like they were on steroids! Meanwhile, the Reverse Star Alliance cultivators were terrified by Gui Ling's ferocity and the tragic deaths of the two demons. With their leaders tied down, their formation became increasingly chaotic, and they could only barely hold on. The signs of defeat were already evident.
High in the sky, the Six Paths Supreme Saint, who was fiercely fighting with the Heavenly Star Twin Saints, naturally caught a glimpse of Gui Ling instantly killing the two demons below, and was even more horrified!
"A level ten demonic beast?! When did the Star Palace acquire such a demonic creature?!" This was completely unexpected, and it made his ominous premonition grow stronger.
"Old Demon Liudao, you dare to be distracted while fighting against my wife and me? You're courting death!" Ling Xiaofeng shouted coldly, cooperating more closely with Wen Qing. The Yuan Magnetic Divine Light transformed into layers of light nets, combined with the fierce sword techniques and magic weapons, forcing the Six Paths Supreme Saint to be flustered. The powerful Three Gods White Bone Banner was struggling to defend itself and gradually lost ground.
Meanwhile, in the Black Wind Flag's independent space.
The battle ended faster than anyone outside had imagined.
Facing Wan Sangu, whose methods were already known and whose strength was far inferior to the divided soul of the Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor, Qin Hao did not even use his full strength. He did not even release the Five-Hearted Demon and the Lion Beast, and completely suppressed Wan Sangu with just the Brahma Saint True Demon Art.
Wan Sangu's Heavenly Net Golden Light Sword and her renowned Thunder Magic were of little use against Qin Hao's almost indestructible Brahma Saint True Magic Form.
After only a few dozen rounds, Qin Hao spotted an opening and unleashed all six arms of his Dharma Form. He shattered her protective lightning aura with a punch, and with his other hand, he transformed his palm into a blade, wrapped in a hazy magnetic light, easily severing the connection between the Heavenly Net Golden Light Sword and his main body. Finally, a condensed "Taiyin Asura Sacred Fire" flicked from his fingertip, instantly piercing through her brow.
Wan Sangu's eyes widened, filled with resentment and horror. Her body was quickly covered by deep blue flames and turned into ashes. Even her nascent soul was unable to escape.
Qin Hao waved his hand to collect the other party's storage bag and the damaged Heavenly Net Golden Light Sword, and removed the spatial barrier of the Black Wind Flag.
When he reappeared above the battlefield, he witnessed Gui Ling instantly killing the two demons and the Star Palace army displaying overwhelming momentum.
He scanned the area with his divine sense and instantly locked onto Ling Yuling's figure. Seeing that she was safe and sound, protected by Guiling, he felt relieved. Then, his gaze turned coldly to the chaotic Reverse Star Alliance camp below, where several Nascent Soul cultivators were trying to organize a counterattack.
Qin Hao's figure blurred, appearing like a ghost behind a mid-stage Nascent Soul elder of the Reverse Star Alliance. The moment the elder turned around in shock, a fist covered in golden light was already imprinted on his back.
"Oh!"
The elder, along with his protective magic weapon, was smashed to pieces by a single punch, his flesh and blood flying everywhere!
"Husband! You're out? Aunt Wan, she..." Ling Yuling was overjoyed to see Qin Hao, and then looked behind him.
Qin Hao smiled calmly: "It's resolved."
His voice wasn't loud, but it seemed to possess a strange magic, spreading throughout the battlefield.
"Aunt Wan is dead?!"
"Madam Wan was killed by Zhang Tie?!"
"Impossible! How could Madam Wan..."
The cultivators of the Reverse Star Alliance, especially those from the Righteous Path Alliance, were initially stunned. They then desperately searched for Wan Sangu's figure, only to find that the familiar purple shadow nowhere to be found. Considering that Qin Hao had appeared safely while Wan Sangu had disappeared without a trace, a terrible thought spread like a plague!
Panic erupted instantly, like a volcano!
"Aunt Wan is dead! Run!"
"Defeat! Utter defeat! The Star Palace is attacking! Retreat!"
"Escape is the priority!"
The defeat was swift and devastating! The already chaotic Reverse Star Alliance camp collapsed completely after losing Wan Sangu, their pillar of strength! Whether they were low-level disciples or Nascent Soul elders, they all had only one thought left—escape! Get away from Tianxing City, get away from the Twin Saints of Tianxing and that fiend Zhang Tie!
"Useless! Those who desert in the face of battle shall die!" Seeing this, the Six Paths Supreme Saint in the sky was so angry that he was fuming. He cursed and waved the Three Gods White Bone Banner. Several Yin Sha Demonic Flames fell and burned several of the fastest-escaping Reverse Star Alliance cultivators to ashes in an attempt to stop the rout.
However, this bloody suppression not only failed to stabilize the situation, but instead made the Reverse Star Alliance cultivators even more terrified, causing them to flee even more frantically, and even begin to trample on each other.
The Six Paths Supreme Saint felt a chill in his heart, knowing that the situation was hopeless. If the fight continued, once the Heavenly Star Twin Saints had dealt with him, and the Star Palace cultivators and the terrifying Zhang Tie surrounded him, he would surely die!
"Where there's life, there's hope!" A fierce and unwilling look flashed in his eyes. He withstood a blast of magnetic sword light from Ling Xiaofeng, spitting out a mouthful of blood. Using the force, he forcefully activated the Three Gods White Bone Banner, summoning three enormous, pale white skulls. The skulls' eyes blazed with green flames, and their mouths spewed out monstrous Yin Sha demonic fire, like three fiery dragons, sweeping towards Ling Xiaofeng and Wen Qing, temporarily blocking their pursuit.
"Want to leave? Dream on!" Ling Xiaofeng roared, and together with Wen Qing, they fully activated the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light. The hazy light surged out like a tide, colliding fiercely with the Yin Sha Demon Fire and annihilating it. For a moment, it was slightly blocked.
The Six Paths Saint was overjoyed. His figure transformed into an almost transparent wisp of black smoke, and he was about to use a secret technique to escape.
However, just when he thought he was about to escape—
"Fellow Daoist, why the rush?"
A calm voice sounded in front of him.
The Six Paths Supreme Saint looked up in shock, only to see Qin Hao standing in his way, hands behind his back, his eyes cold.
"It's you again!" The Six Paths Supreme Saint gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with resentment and a hint of barely perceptible fear. This boy's strength was unfathomable, and his methods were unpredictable. He hated him to the bone for ruining his plans today, but he also knew that now was not the time to entangle himself with him.
"You think you can stop me?" Six Paths Supreme Saint shouted fiercely, trying to find an opening to break through.
Qin Hao shook his head, his tone calm yet carrying an undeniable verdict: "No, I'm not stopping you. I'm sending you on your way. Fellow Daoist, your lifespan has come to an end today. Please—go to your death."
"Arrogant!" The Six Paths Supreme Saint roared in fury, but a warning bell rang in his heart.
Qin Hao said no more. With a thought, a wooden ruler about half a foot long, emerald green in color, and radiating vitality and peaceful Buddhist light appeared in his palm—it was the Heavenly Treasure Eight Spirit Ruler!
The Buddha light of the Eight Spirit Ruler is the nemesis of a demonic giant like the Six Paths Supreme Saint!
"Eight Spirit Rulers, suppress the demons!"
Qin Hao let out a low shout, and his inner magical power surged into the Eight Spirit Ruler like a river bursting its banks. The ruler shone brightly, with eight-colored spiritual light flowing around it. Suddenly, it flew out of his hand, growing longer in the wind, transforming into a seven-colored light ruler phantom that stretched across the sky!
"Om-!"
The chanting of Buddhist hymns resounded throughout heaven and earth! Vast, compassionate, yet infinitely majestic Buddhist light shone in all directions! The light was not intense, but it carried the supreme power to purify all evil spirits and suppress all demonic thoughts, instantly enveloping the space where the Six Paths Supreme Saints were located!
"A Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure?!" The Six Paths Supreme Saint's pupils shrank to pinpoints as he let out a horrified scream! He felt as if the surrounding space had been frozen by the Buddhist light, and his proud escape technique was now impossible to use! Even more terrifying, under the illumination of that Buddhist light, the circulation of his demonic energy suddenly became extremely sluggish, and his protective demonic aura melted away rapidly like ice and snow under the scorching sun!
"Do not!!!"
At the critical moment of life and death, the Six Paths Supreme Saint also unleashed his full potential. With a roar, his demonic energy surged around him, and he pushed the Six Extremes True Demon Art to its limit, manifesting a three-headed, six-armed demonic form, attempting to withstand the Buddha's light and break through the blockade!
However, the Eight Spirit Ruler is a true heaven-reaching spiritual treasure. Even though Qin Hao only refined a portion of its power, it is by no means something that a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator like him can easily contend with! Under the Buddha's light, his demonic magic form emitted a "sizzling" burning sound and quickly became illusory.
Just as the Six Paths Supreme Saints were struggling desperately, their demonic forms locked in a stalemate with the Buddha's light—
A cold glint flashed in Qin Hao's eyes, and his figure and the Brahma True Magic Image behind him suddenly merged into one, transforming into a golden meteor that pierced through the heavens and earth!
The golden meteor, carrying the force to destroy everything, ignored the spatial distance and crashed hard into the already exhausted Dharma form of the Six Paths Supreme Saint!
"boom--!!!"
A deafening roar shook the heavens and the earth! The magical form shattered instantly! The Six Paths Supreme Saint's incomparably resilient demonic body, cultivated for a thousand years, cracked inch by inch under the dual crushing impact of the golden meteor and the Buddha's light of the Eight Spirits Ruler, and then exploded completely, turning into a rain of blood and broken bones!
A solid, black Nascent Soul figure, its face filled with terror and resentment, emerged from the shattered flesh and blood at incredible speed, about to use its Nascent Soul teleportation technique to escape!
However, Qin Hao had been waiting for a long time!
"Mirror of Condensed Light, freeze!"
The Condensing Light Mirror, which had been quietly activated long ago, shot out a condensed white beam of light, arriving first despite being delayed, and accurately illuminating the black Nascent Soul figure!
The nascent soul figure was instantly frozen in mid-air, unable to move, and even unable to self-destruct!
The next second, several pre-prepared sealing talismans and restrictive spiritual lights clung to it like maggots, sealing it tightly layer by layer, completely depriving it of all ability to resist.
Qin Hao waved his hand, took the sealed nascent soul into his hand, and without even looking at it, put it directly into a specially made jade box and affixed several sealing talismans.
Thus, the two leaders of the Reverse Star Alliance—Wan Sangu—were both destroyed, and the Six Paths Supreme Saint's physical body was destroyed and his Nascent Soul was captured!
On the battlefield below, the remaining Reverse Star Alliance cultivators witnessed this final scene, their last will to resist completely collapsing as they scattered and fled in terror. Meanwhile, the Star Palace cultivators, their morale soaring, launched a full-scale pursuit and extermination operation under the command of Ling Yuling and the elders.
Ling Xiaofeng and Wen Qing flew to Qin Hao's side. Looking down at the defeated Reverse Star Alliance, and then at the jade box containing the six Nascent Souls in Qin Hao's hand, their eyes were filled with complex and unfathomable expressions.
Relief, relief, awe, and a touch of reverence. (End of Chapter)
