#452 - Easy to complete
Daoist Wang was quickly somewhat disappointed.
Indeed, after reaching the Transformation God Realm, it's truly impossible to take down a cultivator with just a temporary nuclear strike.
Even if they manage to escape, they'll only be a bit disheveled, with a few percent of their mana depleted and their Dao bodies looking tattered, but they still have the strength to fight.
However, Wang Jixuan had predicted this outcome beforehand, so he couldn't be called disappointed at this moment.
The demon soldiers and lesser generals, however, were in a terrible state.
Not to mention whether they left behind a complete corpse, under this kind of explosion, small cultivators with insufficient strength and slow reactions would hardly leave even a trace of black ash.
But for them, there was actually good news: their souls were still floating.
As the fireball turned into billowing smoke, surging towards the sky;
One by one, lonely souls floated above Huanyu City, which now had only one percent of its buildings remaining, blankly looking at the giant pit that had appeared on the ground...
"No—"
True Lord Tianyan's miserable shout resounded through the heavens and earth.
Half of his body was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye, and this recovery process was extremely terrifying.
True Lord Tianyan didn't even wait for his body to fully recover before rushing around, trying to find the demon soldiers and generals he had painstakingly cultivated.
Because his 'benefactor' had been attacked last time, True Lord Tianyan had mobilized a large number of experts back to Huanyu City.
But at this moment;
They had all been reduced to ashes.
Only a small number of scattered soldiers and vagrants outside the city, far from the center of the explosion, were still alive, and they were all seriously injured.
His demon soldiers!
His army!
How much effort had he spent, how much karma had he borne, how many massacres had he committed to accumulate these demon soldiers, these demon soldiers he was supposed to present to the experts behind his 'benefactor'…
True Lord Tianyan fell to the ground unconsciously, his eyes staring blankly as he took two steps back and then steadied himself.
His breathing became heavy as he searched everywhere, shouting and cursing like a madman.
"You bastard! Get out here!"
"Who are you? Who exactly are you!"
"Sorcery! This is sorcery! You!"
One after another, experts emerged from underground and flew towards True Lord Tianyan.
Those who could escape underground after the aerial bombardment of three ultra-high-yield nuclear bombs were almost all extraordinary individuals;
Of course, there were also some experts who, not understanding the protective nature of the earth, sensed something was wrong and instead rushed towards the sky and all directions, ultimately being directly evaporated by the powerful impact and intense energy radiation.
The demon soldiers here were completely annihilated.
Less than one in ten of the remaining Golden Core Realm and above experts survived.
"True Lord! What, what are we going to do, True Lord?"
True Lord Tianyan's expression was wooden as he held the copper hammer in his hand, trembling as he shouted: "Find that bastard, I want to devour his primordial spirit, kill his entire family! I want to devour him! Devour him! Puff!"
The True Lord spat out a mouthful of old blood several feet away.
Daoist Wang, hiding in the dark, silently put away the immortal artifact in his hand.
The plan had changed.
Wang Jixuan had originally wanted to find an opportunity to launch a sneak attack, taking advantage of these demon cultivators' weakness to end their lives.
But now it was no longer necessary.
Streaks of light appeared on the horizon.
Those were not demon generals returning from various places to reinforce, but… the Immortal Alliance!
These righteous path cultivators, who had been frightened by True Lord Tianyan, finally confirmed that this was not a grand performance by True Lord Tianyan to lure them out.
True Lord Tianyan's elite troops had suffered heavy losses, and his overall military strength was only thirty to forty percent of what it had been. After these three earth-shattering blasts, True Lord Tianyan's demon generals had begun to show a tendency to flee.
Most of these demon generals had no loyalty to speak of, and no one would tie themselves to a sinking ship.
Daoist Wang thought for a moment, then swallowed his pride and began to transmit a reminder to the Great Ascension Realm expert of the Immortal Alliance, then grabbed a pile of magic weapons, aiming at True Lord Tianyan above.
Once the Immortal Alliance launched a general attack, he only needed to launch an ordinary sneak attack.
"True Lord! They're attacking!"
"What do we do, True Lord!"
"Fight them to the death!"
True Lord Tianyan's nostrils were trembling constantly as he forced himself to calm down, then let out a long roar, taking the lead with the remaining demon generals to meet the Immortal Alliance experts who were shooting towards them from the horizon.
Now, he had to show his strength to inject a shot of adrenaline into the demon soldiers and generals on all fronts in order to salvage the situation.
Therefore, True Lord Tianyan was desperately stimulating the power of his primordial spirit at this moment, even at the cost of damaging his Dao foundation and greatly reducing his lifespan, so that he could unleash a sky full of flames.
Wang Jixuan struck again.
His alien soul was floating in the sky, and his main body was tunneling underground. At this moment, he only used his alien soul to slightly harass and reveal the phantom of a great Buddha, pretending to press down...
"Run!"
True Lord Tianyan's soul almost left his body as he flicked his sleeves and fled into the distance.
The demon generals were all scared out of their wits.
Wasn't the opening move of that earth-shattering triple blast this Buddha's palm!
Their escape speed was slightly slower than True Lord Tianyan's, but it was also very fast. In almost two breaths, they exploded in the sky like fireworks, scattering and fleeing in defeat.
The Buddha's palm swept across lightly.
This attack had no artistry.
True Lord Tianyan widened his eyes, pointing at the great Buddha in the distance and cursing, but before he could curse a few words, he opened his mouth and spat out large mouthfuls of blood, trembling all over, completely losing the demeanor of a Great Ascension Realm expert.
Once people's hearts are scattered, it is difficult to reunite them.
True Lord Tianyan watched helplessly as four out of ten of the experts he had just abandoned to escape also fled without looking back, with no intention of returning.
Even the gazes of the one demon and one demon Great Ascension Realm experts towards True Lord Tianyan had changed.
The cracks in their trust were already huge.
True Lord Tianyan knew that the overall situation was over. He looked around blankly, seeing the vastness of the heavens and earth, but not seeing his own retreat.
Yes, he had not left himself a retreat.
When his 'benefactor' was attacked and killed by that mysterious cultivator who suddenly popped up, he had no way to turn back.
"Hahaha! Hahahaha!"
True Lord Tianyan said no more, holding the copper hammer and rushing towards the Immortal Alliance cultivators.
"Today, this poor Daoist is really going to kill to his heart's content!"
The one demon and one demon followed silently.
Their situation was similar to True Lord Tianyan's; they were both in an irreconcilable conflict with the Immortal Alliance.
A great battle quickly unfolded.
The Immortal Alliance cultivators shouted to slay demons and eliminate evil, restoring a bright and clear world;
True Lord Tianyan and others, who had been stunned by Wang Jixuan's explosions, also fought hard, unwilling to retire in such a muddled state.
Wang Jixuan was not idle.
He waited for the two sides to fight, and the Immortal Alliance experts began to besiege. His main body directly joined the battle, targeting the great demon and launching a fierce attack.
Benefiting from the forging method of treasures like the God-Slaying Claw, Wang Jixuan was also quite interested in the demon soul of this great demon.
The Immortal Alliance cultivators became more and more courageous as they fought;
True Lord Tianyan was quickly covered in wounds.
Wang Jixuan was secretly calculating the time, after all, his real enemies were the two batches of Dark Church believers, and this True Lord Tianyan was just his mission target.
… …
A great battle broke out in the sky, and the spiritual energy within a radius of ten thousand miles was mobilized by this group of experts. Countless creatures were waiting for the result of the final battle between good and evil.
Not far from the core area of the great battle, two Tianluo members wearing white robes were gazing at the chaotic battle above under a tree.
The two of them were the strongest among this group of Tianluo members, with strengths similar to Yin Lin's. They were each responsible for a branch of Tianluo in different regions.
One of the two branch leaders was the one who had been transmitting messages to Wang Jixuan.
At this moment, both of their gazes were focused on Wang Jixuan's main body, with emotion and thought in their eyes.
"Impressive."
"Indeed impressive."
"The so-called technology of the Immortal Forbidden Land actually has such power. No wonder this Immortal Forbidden Land can give birth to that kind of strange chaotic creature."
"Every time the Heavenly Dao arranges for us to perform tasks in the Immortal Forbidden Land, it gives us some strange things, and every time these things can take effect. Isn't this the reason?"
“Yin Lin told you?”
“Told me what?”
“This Wang Zheng is a talent that Shao Lao wants by name, and he may even be accepted as a disciple with unlimited prospects.”
“Hasn’t this matter spread? The Tianluo have no news that lasts overnight.”
“Yes… we can only enjoy ourselves in the lower realm.”
“They say there are not many years of leisure left. This mass calamity will affect the entire Three Realms, and even several Great Luo Golden Immortals cannot explain what the mass calamity is.”
“Is it related to those creatures in chaos?”
“It may be related to the world itself, which is something that Sanxian like us cannot know.”
“Watch the show, watch the show.”
“This Wang Zheng's technology in the Immortal Forbidden Land, if it can be promoted, what a beautiful thing it would be.”
“Is it possible? The Heavenly Dao does not seem to allow the technology of the Immortal Forbidden Land and the cultivation methods to coexist.”
“You can see whether Wang Zheng is rewarded or punished later?”
“That makes sense… Look, he is starting to kill.”
The two stretched their necks and looked upwards, where light and shadow were flowing and the world was distorted. At this moment, there were also rough Dao rules trembling and bombarding each other.
A figure that appeared twisted like smoke suddenly launched an attack. His figure flashed forward strangely, appearing behind True Lord Tianyan in a few flashes, and a sword pierced through True Lord Tianyan's chest.
True Lord Tianyan was furious and counterattacked, but Wang Jixuan had already escaped like green smoke, not confronting him head-on at all.
This sword almost killed True Lord Tianyan.
Then, under the siege of the cultivators, True Lord Tianyan could no longer support himself. He hesitated to detonate his primordial spirit, thinking that the Immortal Alliance might want to keep him alive.
Many times, people like to deceive themselves like this.
The Great Ascension Realm expert of the Immortal Alliance suddenly abandoned True Lord Tianyan and turned to rush towards the great demon that Wang Jixuan had been entangled with.
— This was also Wang Jixuan's telepathic command.
That great demon relied on eating human flesh and blood and devouring human souls to gain its dirty cultivation. Its foundation was unstable, its strength uncertain, and it had no powerful magic weapons.
At this time, the Mahayana cultivators of the Immortal Alliance launched a sneak attack. The dozen or so experts who had been besieging it erupted at the same time. How could it resist?
However, these people from the Immortal Alliance did not have time to directly destroy its divine soul.
Daoist Wang took action in time. When this demon fell, he pulled out the demon's soul. Then, he followed suit, chopped off the great demon's hardest and only intact claw, and stuffed the demon's soul into it.
"Everyone, I'm only taking this item to refine a magic weapon later."
The cultivators immediately cupped their hands, some thanking him, others sighing with emotion.
Everyone had seen the earth-shattering three-in-a-row explosion, and no one dared to say half a word of disagreement to Wang Jixuan.
This force turned around and began to besiege Heavenly Flame True Lord, naturally accelerating his demise.
What Wang Jixuan found interesting was that Heavenly Flame True Lord had been showing signs of self-destruction. He had even prepared to save a few people, but Heavenly Flame True Lord had never been able to bring himself to self-destruct.
When Heavenly Flame True Lord finally realized that he was powerless to turn the tide, and that the surrounding people would not let him go, he had lost the chance to struggle and was blasted to pieces by several streams of light.
A white figure moved forward.
It was the woman named Ziyan.
Her expression was desolate, her face filled with pain, and she called out to her senior brother.
Heavenly Flame True Lord looked up. At this moment, only his nascent soul remained, and his eyes held a trace of expectation as he trembled and said, "Junior Sister… Senior Brother knows he was wrong…"
Chi.
A small, snake-shaped sword pierced Heavenly Flame True Lord's forehead.
Heavenly Flame True Lord's nascent soul trembled once or twice, and then began to disintegrate directly.
Fortunately, Daoist Wang was quick-witted and rushed forward to snatch a wisp of Heavenly Flame True Lord's remnant soul. Then, he frowned as he looked at the constantly weeping Ziyan.
Wait, what's going on with this woman, cough, this female Daoist?
Killing someone to silence them?
Not wanting the legendary bedside stories of her parents to be known to the world?
This was indeed a ruthless move. That snake-shaped small sword should also be a rare treasure, capable of directly destroying a nascent soul of the Mahayana stage.
With the death of Heavenly Flame True Lord, many cultivators present were in tears.
They shouted that the righteous path would not decline, constantly calling out the names of deceased relatives and friends. A large number of experts joined the siege against the last demon.
Wang Jixuan watched this scene from the side, thinking of reuniting the three Heavenly Flame True Lord brothers. At the moment when the demon was hacked to death by random swords, he took away a wisp of the demon's remnant soul.
The mission had been more than completed.
Wang Jixuan heard the telepathic message from his own Heavenly Net experts.
"This mission was done beautifully, but Wang Zheng, you must be mentally prepared. The Heavenly Dao does not allow the techniques of the Immortal Forbidden Land to appear in the world of cultivation. Subsequent rewards may disappoint you."
Daoist Wang could only smile wryly upon hearing this.
Regardless of the technology, isn't it good technology if it can ascend to immortality and kill enemies to win?
Wang Jixuan turned to leave.
"Benefactor!"
Ziyan suddenly called out, her figure floating in front of Wang Jixuan. Suddenly, she knelt down in mid-air.
Her expression was desolate, like a begonia after the rain, truly a sight to be pitied.
"Thank you, benefactor, for slaying this demon, avenging my family, and saving countless lives… If benefactor does not abandon me, Ziyan is willing to serve benefactor, to follow benefactor for all eternity, to repay this great kindness!"
Many Immortal Alliance experts nodded slowly, feeling that Ziyan was a woman of affection and righteousness.
Many Immortal Alliance experts also shook their heads secretly, quite dissatisfied with Ziyan's behavior of rushing to offer herself.
Wang Jixuan was very calm. He raised his hand and gently stroked the air, lifting Ziyan up from a distance. Then, he said earnestly:
"Forget about being a maidservant. I have enough maidservants, and they are all more gentle and beautiful than you, fellow Daoist.
"This world has experienced calamity. How to revive it afterward is ten thousand times more difficult than eliminating demons. Fellow Daoist, please stay and build a beautiful new world of cultivation."
After speaking, Wang Jixuan turned and left. His figure turned into smoke after a few ups and downs, and he rushed back to the valley where he had been before.
He deliberately left behind many traces of his aura, so that people could track him down.
Ziyan stared blankly at Wang Jixuan's departing back, gently pursing her lips. There seemed to be a huge emptiness in her heart. However, before she could turn around, a purple vortex suddenly appeared in the Qiankun ahead, and figures窜了出来 from it.
Twenty-four middle-aged men and women wearing gray robes and with cold faces.
Ziyan was obviously stunned.
This kind of dress, similar aura, she had felt it on the guy who had briefly appeared, the one who sneaked up on her and caused her to lose the opportunity to negotiate and be hugged by Heavenly Flame True Lord…
A big hand suddenly appeared, grabbing Ziyan's slender neck.
