Chapter 367

The four elders Fan Ru, Liao Qing, Wei Jian, and Zhu Bi, who were in the sky above Silver Break City, heard the words of Daoist Qingwei, and deep in their eyes were filled with mockery.

As Luoyan Valley, once a major sect of Huanyu that had exterminated countless defiant sects, they had long since become numb to such impotent threats and furious rage.

Anyone can utter harsh words, but in the face of absolute strength, they are as futile as ants trying to shake a tree, having no effect whatsoever.

After the primordial spiritual realm of the Giant Spirit Realm was excavated by Huanyu, Luoyan Valley gathered the cultivation levels of all Huanyu cultivators into a single cauldron for the sect, enabling its rapid rise; in over two years, no force dared to touch its edge.

What does it matter that the Shangqing Sect has the Sha Gui Sect behind it? The strong ones of Bibo Palace, Tianlongmen, Zifu, and Fuyang Sect went alone, leading only a few disciples to seek an explanation from the Sha Gui Sect—this is just ridiculous.

In the end, those strong ones were not only surrounded and captured by the strong ones of the Sha Gui Sect's base in Huanyu City, but even their sect's reputation was utterly ruined.

Luoyan Valley will not imitate those forces' self-importance.

They do not act unless they must, but when they do, they strike with thunderous force.

Thus, just like other righteous forces of Huanyu who offended the Sha Gui Sect and sought trouble with the Shangqing Sect, Luoyan Valley instead achieved a complete victory.

Seeing the countless captured disciples of the Shangqing Sect, the four leading elders of Luoyan Valley—Fan Ru and the others—felt great joy in their hearts.

Many of the newly recruited Huanyu cultivators in Luoyan Valley are of the Earth Origin Realm cultivation level, which makes them an excellent cauldron for Luoyan Valley disciples to enhance their cultivation.

The other forces in Silver Break City, watching the scene of the Shangqing Sect, had solemn expressions.

As a righteous force, Luoyan Valley acted too overbearingly—first stealing the Sha Gui Sect's business and assassination services, then being counterattacked by the Sha Gui Sect, and afterward leading the sect's great army to Silver Break City to take revenge.

Unfortunately, the Shangqing Sect's power had just taken shape, while the Sha Gui Sect's power was again blocked within Silver Break City, unable to escape.

Otherwise.

If the disciples of the Sha Gui Sect's base in Huanyu City came to support, how could Luoyan Valley dare to bully the Shangqing Sect so?

Many Huanyu cultivators clenched their fists tightly together.

The Huanyu Cultivation World is thus—survival of the fittest, with interests largely held in the hands of powerful forces.

Even if you have a way to obtain benefits, you cannot retain them; in the end, you may still be wiped out by an even stronger force.

"Alas, good people ultimately receive no good reward." A Huanyu cultivator sighed with regret.

"Speak more softly—Luoyan Valley is extravagant and inhumane; if your words are heard by them, you will surely not have a good outcome." Beside the sighing cultivator, his companion, upon hearing this, hastily made a false gesture with his hand, carefully reminding him.

They are not like other Huanyu cultivators who are too far from the battlefield and must be cautious; otherwise, they will surely suffer disaster.

"Daoist Qingwei has bestowed upon us the grace of teaching the Dao—must we truly watch the Shangqing Sect be exterminated before our eyes?" A Huanyu cultivator unwilling to accept this felt intense inner turmoil, asking the cultivator beside him.

"Silver Break City has already been completely sealed off by Luoyan Valley; even if we help the Shangqing Sect, it is merely like moths flying into the flame—only inviting injury and death.

Better to endure.

To secretly gather the corpses of the Shangqing Sect's disciples is also good, to prevent them from being left exposed in the wilderness." The Huanyu cultivator's eyes were filled with bloodshot veins, and he spoke with sorrow and indignation.

"Alas.

If Silver Break City were not sealed, aiding the Shangqing Sect could still allow escape.

Luoyan Valley's sealing of heaven and earth is precisely to eliminate together with them any Huanyu forces that might aid the Shangqing Sect.

Luoyan Valley seeks to establish its prestige—we such people are fundamentally of little use." A Huanyu cultivator's eyes were about to burst, his eyes nearly spitting fire, as he spoke fiercely.

"I vow that, whether in the Huanyu Cultivation World or in the Primordial Spiritual Realm, if I discover any Luoyan Valley disciple who can be eliminated, I will certainly not let them go.

To repay Daoist Qingwei's grace of teaching the Dao, I will seek a shred of justice for his old self." The Huanyu cultivator turned his head to look beside him, choking with emotion as he swore.

Above the sky of Silver Break City, Fan Ru saw the cultivators fleeing the Shangqing Sect's protective great array gradually become sparse, and a cold smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"Qingwei, most of the Shangqing Sect's disciples have already fallen into our hands.

Hand over the diagram of the Shangqing Sect's protective great array, and then take your own life.

I grant you a whole corpse." Fan Ru's eyes narrowed slightly.

The Shangqing Sect's protective great array is profoundly mysterious; even compared to the protective great array of Luoyan Valley in Huanyu City, it is in no way inferior.

They led three thousand disciples here, each at least at the mid-stage of the Earth Origin Realm, and yet they have still not broken through the Shangqing Sect's protective great array to this day.

Fan Ru and the other three elders of Luoyan Valley had their eyes light up—if they could bring the array diagram back, it would be a great merit.

"Fan Ru, you old scoundrel, do not act arrogantly.

As long as I and the remaining disciples do not leave the protective great array of the sect, you can do nothing to us.

Once the Sha Gui Sect disciples near Silver Break City detect any abnormality, they will surely report to the Sha Gui Sect's base in Huanyu City, and the Sha Gui Sect reinforcements will arrive in person.

At that moment, you will surely be made to pay the price in blood." Qingwei's face showed sorrow and indignation; his words fiercely stimulated Fan Ru, making him realize the urgency of time.

The four elders of Luoyan Valley heard Qingwei's words, their brows furrowed as they began to communicate with each other.

As one of the top ten evil sects of Huanyu, the Sha Gui Sect has a foundation as deep as that of Luoyan Valley; if the Sha Gui Sect cultivators near Silver Break City detect any abnormality in the city, it would be greatly detrimental to Luoyan Valley.

The four elders understood the urgency of time and must resolve Qingwei and the others before the Sha Gui Sect discovers the Shangqing Sect's crisis.

Fan Ru's expression turned fierce, the fury in his chest fully revealed as he spoke.

"Quickly open the sect's protective great array, and swiftly surrender.

Otherwise, I will kill a batch of your captured Shangqing Sect cultivators every ten breaths."

Fan Ru's voice echoed in the sky above, mighty and vast, causing the winds and clouds of heaven and earth to shift; many cultivators within Silver Break City felt immense pressure.

Fifth Master, Sun Ze, and Qingwei exchanged glances, their hearts stirred.

Those who rushed out of the Shangqing Sect were paper cranes transformed from folded crane paper, each containing a stink liquid bomb, which would explode on its own when stimulated by spiritual power.

Now, each of the three thousand cultivators of Luoyan Valley has grabbed several of these close to their person.

If Fan Ru truly orders his disciples to destroy the folded crane paper people, the stink liquid bombs will explode on their faces, and the stink liquid will absolutely seep into the body upon contact, causing heart-rending agony.

"Fan Ru, you old woman's leg.

I vow.

If you kill even one cultivator of the Shangqing Sect, I will surely kill a hundred cultivators of Luoyan Valley to repay the debt."

Daoist Qingwei's face showed sorrow and indignation, and his voice turned into a roar.

"Hmph, your futile rage is useless before us.

I would like to know how you, reduced to a fish on the chopping block, could possibly turn the tide with a single effort."

Fan Ru clasped her hands behind her back, a look of resolute certainty on her face, and spoke to the cultivators of Lu Yan Valley, issuing orders.

The cultivators of Lu Yan Valley, having received the command, naturally did not wish to waste the cultivator captured before them.

They activated Lu Yan Valley's Guiyuan Jue, striking with a palm at the Qingyun Sect disciples bound before Fan Ru, Liao Qing, Wei Jian, and Zhu Bi, as wild and tyrannical spiritual power surged from their heavenly spirits into the depths of their dantians, seeking to devour all of the Qingyun disciples' cultivation, crushing their souls and reducing them to ashes.

But at this very moment, a strange scene appeared: as spiritual power entered the dantians of the captured Qingyun Sect cultivators, it discovered a strange object.

That object, upon being slightly touched by spiritual power, became agitated, flashing with dense, dense electric light.

The Lu Yan Valley disciple responsible for carrying out the execution was greatly startled, jerking back—but found his hand stuck to the heavenly spirit cover of the Qingyun Sect disciple, unable to pull free no matter how hard he tried.

The Lu Yan Valley cultivators' faces instantly filled with fear, as they strained every ounce of their strength to struggle.

Then.

In the midst of the Lu Yan Valley cultivators' fearful gazes, the Qingyun Sect disciples before them directly exploded, countless black liquids spraying in all directions.

And as these more than ten Qingyun Sect cultivators exploded, the bodies of the Qingyun Sect disciples captured by Lu Yan Valley burst open like firecrackers, popping and bursting, the entire sky instantly covered by the strange black liquid.

"Huh?"

That black liquid was incredibly foul-smelling; upon appearing, it soaked through the Lu Yan Valley cultivators' protective gangqi and merged with their skin.

They merely saw strands of black smoke merging into their bodies, winding through their limbs and bones, as an incredibly foul odor shot straight up through their nostrils into their brains, stimulating their six viscera to churn violently, and they all vomited uncontrollably.

The cultivators of Yin Duan City witnessed this strange scene, their pupils suddenly contracting, the battlefield changing in an instant.

The Lu Yan Valley cultivators were blown apart, their clothes tattered, their hair standing straight up, their thick eyebrows hissing with black smoke like demonic possession, truly bizarre.

The thick stench wandered through Yin Duan City, countless cultivators stimulated into dizziness, retching on the spot.

Boom—

The sky, originally obscured by black clouds, suddenly poured black rain, the rain falling on the buildings of Yin Duan City, rippling with strange power, countless stones, bricks, and tiles corroded into black stains.

The birds soaring in the sky all rolled their eyes and fell from the heavens, and even the countless fish in the clear river water were stunned by the stench, flipping belly-up and blocking the surface of the city river.

"Huh

What exactly happened. Huh."

Fan Ru saw that the entire Yin Duan City had become a mess, as if some great toxic monster had just fallen into the city, turning the original spiritually fragrant cultivation holy land directly into a garbage city.

The four elders of Lu Yan Valley had faces ashen with iron, bent over vomiting, their speech and communication affected, even their cultivation unable to suppress the palpitations of their six viscera.

That black liquid was too nauseating, stinking to death and merging into their bodies, combining with flesh and spiritual power, impossible to remove.

Fan Ru and the four elders were no longer calm.

From now on, their bodies reeked like a reborn stench demon—how could they return to their sect?

If the sect rejects them, even entering other places in the Primordial Spirit Realm would bring exclusion.

Their bodies hissed with black smoke, exhaling stench, affecting the normal lives of other Huanyu cultivators.

"Damn those Qingyun Sect riffraff—what exactly have you all done?" Fan Ru flung open her eyes, roaring in anger.

He finally understood why Daozhang Qingwei had been so fearless—those words were all meant to provoke them, the Lu Yan Valley cultivators.

The purpose was to make the Qingyun Sect cultivators captured by Lu Yan Valley detonate at close range.

"Huh."

Fan Ru trembled with anger, her whole body unable to stop shaking, opening her mouth to curse, but suddenly inhaling the stench spraying from her nose, causing a bout of dry heaves.

He was completely unsettled—his own breath was foul, and it even made him gag.

If they returned to Lu Yan Valley, they would surely cause chaos, and the sect's strong ones, to maintain sect peace, might even purge the gates.

"Qingwei, quickly produce the antidote.

We will then leave, no longer troubling the Qingyun Sect."

Elder Zhu Bi's voice trembled.

He truly could not bear it—his whole body rolled his white eyes wildly, trembling uncontrollably, black qi violently erupting from all four limbs.

Having traversed Huanyu for hundreds of years, he had never seen such a terrifying poison; once afflicted, there would be no bodily or cultivation damage, but the blow to a cultivator's inner self would be immense.

If the stench is not dispelled, wherever they go, cultivators will avoid them out of respect.

Upon thinking of being isolated by Huanyu cultivators, Zhu Bi involuntarily shuddered.

The disciples in the Qingyun Sect's Guardian Grand Formation saw that Daozhang Qingwei's plans had all succeeded, and they all rushed out from the sect's main hall.

Gazing upon the appearance of Lu Yan Valley's over three thousand cultivators, their blood boiled with fervor.

Lu Yan Valley cultivators, relying on their strong power, oppressed the weak Qingyun Sect, sealing off the entire Yin Duan City.

If not for the Qingyun Sect's Protective Grand Formation, whose defensive power shocked the world and defied convention, the new disciples entering the Qingyun Sect would all have been swept away by Lu Yan Valley.

The Qingyun Sect disciples personally witnessed the miserable state of Lu Yan Valley's four elders and three thousand disciples, and all were emotionally stirred, fiercely exhaling a mouthful of resentment.

"Yo, the Lu Yan Valley disciples are all pregnant.

Vomiting to death—must be carrying twins."

"Vomiting this hard—definitely gotta drop twenty pups.

The hole's too small—gotta rip a big hole in the butt when the time comes."

"Come on, come on, step out and walk two steps so I can take another look at that arrogant vigor of yours."

"Comfort, love, cherish, mom protects the whole family, comfort you and me, hurry up and get ready."

"When vomiting, your mouth can actually open this wide—mine can fit right in."

"Lu Yan Valley cultivators are all tolerant types—too bad I still prefer women, you guys keep watching."

"Let's stop mocking them—they need to be confident; what if they bite us, what then?"

"Before, they acted mighty and imposing, thinking they were kings.

Who would've thought they couldn't even hold in their poop—just a bit of stench and they're done for!"

"Lu Yan Valley dao friends, let me tell you.

If you really can't stand the dry heaves, hold your urine—when anxious, you'll definitely wet your pants."

"The elder of Lu Yan Valley's intestines are about to come out—could it be due to a cold uterus?"

"Let her give birth, let her give birth, let her give birth—oh, sorry, I got it wrong, it's a group of men who are mistaken."

"He vomited so miserably, fellow cultivators of Lu Yan Valley—if you can't take it, just go ahead and leave."

The cultivators of Shangqing Sect looked up at the miserable sight of over three thousand disciples of Lu Yan Valley in the sky, each one smirking with hidden malice.

Qingwei Daozhang, Fifth Lord, and Sun Min's eyes gleamed.

The power of the Stench Liquid Bomb was too overwhelming; the cultivators of Lu Yan Valley vomited until their legs went weak—how could they still have the will to fight desperately?

Boom—

The restriction above Yin Duan City began to shake violently, on the verge of collapse, due to the lack of magical power infusion from Lu Yan Valley disciples.

The Lu Yan Valley disciples responsible for maintaining it, seeing this, struggled to suppress their nausea and hastily infused Spiritual Power to stabilize the protective grand formation.

However, the power of the Stench Liquid Bomb was too overwhelming.

They hadn't even held on for a few breaths before their five viscera and six bowels violently churned from the stench rising from their bodies, bending over as they continued to vomit.

Bang—The restriction protecting Yin Duan City's grand formation completely shattered.

The cultivators within Yin Duan City could no longer endure it, scattering in all directions to flee into the distance.

Yin Duan City had become a stinking city because the Lu Yan Valley cultivators were affected by the Stench Liquid Bomb; no one wished to stay any longer, especially upon seeing the miserable state of the Lu Yan Valley crowd—those cultivators avoided the Lu Yan Valley practitioners as if fleeing plague.

"Fellow disciples, the time for revenge has come.

Taking advantage of Lu Yan Valley's lack of offensive intent, powerful cultivators may seize the opportunity to massacre outside the sect's grand formation.

Weaker disciples shall assist within the sect's grand formation."

Qingwei Daozhang's voice echoed in the air.

When the enemy is strong, we retreat; when the enemy is weary, we strike.

The cultivators of Shangqing Sect, long suppressed, now seized the chance to vent their fury, thoroughly nauseating the Lu Yan Valley cultivators.

He gazed at the map on the penguin-transmission jade slip, several cultivators from Earth already rushing here, soon to arrive,

at which point they could directly encircle and annihilate over three thousand cultivators of Lu Yan Valley.
