Chapter 2363
Above the ruins of Qing Song Immortal City, strands of white smoke continuously rose, and these white smoke all carried intense extreme heat.
This made the entire Qing Song Immortal City like a furnace, so hot it was unbearable.
You must know, everyone present is a cultivator, and those who arrived at Qing Song Immortal City so quickly are certainly not ordinary cultivators; in the Immortal Realm, they are all renowned powerful figures.
But that scorching white smoke made everyone feel unbearable heat, which is clearly wrong.
Ye Zhangqing felt the heat waves coming from all directions, and couldn't help but frown and say.
These white smoke are somewhat strange.
Ye Zhangqing couldn't tell what these white smoke were, after all he had never seen them before, but now he himself had already reached perfected Immortal Venerable realm cultivation.
Even before this white smoke, he still felt the scorching heat as before, and even if he circulated his internal Línglì to dispel this scorching sensation, there was no response at all.
Perfected Immortal Venerable realm cultivation is useless against this white smoke.
Beside him, Zuo Jue complained even more loudly.
What kind of damned place is this? I have Immortal King realm cultivation, yet I can still be heated to this extent.
Even as a child before he began cultivation, Zuo Jue had never suffered such extreme heat or cold.
As the cherished son of Zuo Fu, the treasure in his hands, Zuo Jue's golden spoon was held securely; he simply couldn't bear to let him suffer even a bit.
At this moment, Huang Lao, Miao Cuihua, and the Heavenly Family ancestor also walked onto the deck.
But the three of them used their own great power to conceal their faces and auras, so others could not see through their true identities at all.
Unless they were those who, like the three, were supreme powerhouses.
Huang Lao and the three likely concealed their identities to avoid unnecessary trouble.
There were not few people around, and many recognized them; once their identities were exposed, it was obvious they would instantly become the center of attention.
This is not what Huang Lao and the three hoped to see, after all they came here merely to investigate the truth of Qing Song Immortal City.
Be careful.
Likewise, they made a move to conceal Ye Zhangqing's, Tianlin's, and Miao Qianqian's faces and auras, after all there are not a few people who know Ye Zhangqing, Tianlin, and Miao Qianqian.
After giving the three a word of advice, Huang Lao flashed and disappeared from the spot.
Obviously he went to check the surroundings of the ruins.
As Huang Lao and the three left, Ye Zhangqing and the others also disembarked from the immortal vessel; along the way, with Huang Lao and the others' power concealing their identities, they were not recognized.
Although many people cast curious glances, upon feeling that Ye Zhangqing and the others' aura could not be seen through, they withdrew their attention.
Not wanting to reveal their true identity is their own problem; moreover, anyone capable of such means is clearly not an ordinary person.
Under the current circumstances, it's better to do less than more; there's no need to unnecessarily add trouble for oneself.
Ye Zhangqing and his party were actually happy to have leisure, undisturbed, and thus began to inspect various parts of Qing Song Immortal City.
Shī xiōng, there's basically nothing at all, not even a trace of aura left.
After making a round, they found nothing wrong; Zuo Jue already complained somewhat boredly.
They said the city was slaughtered, but after this round, not to mention corpses, they didn't even see any bloodstains.
Aside from the houses being gone, the entire city's populace seemed to have simply vanished.
Ye Zhangqing calmly replied to this.
Precisely because there is no problem, the problem is greater; those behind the scenes left not a trace, and we haven't even seen a clue.
Qing Song Immortal City was indeed destroyed, and the cultivators of this city have indeed completely vanished without a trace.
Their fate tablets had long since shattered beyond repair, undoubtedly indicating true death and disappearance of the Dao.
All these signs indicate that Qing Song Immortal City was indeed slaughtered to emptiness in a single night.
Yet the scene left nothing behind, which can only show that the strength of the perpetrator is probably beyond their imagination.
And this is certainly not good news, after all this group acts so recklessly; today they dared to slaughter Qing Song Immortal City in one night—tomorrow, whose immortal city will they turn their butcher's blade toward? Or which sect or clan?
This is why so many people, undeterred by distance, from all directions, rushed to Qing Song Immortal City at the first opportunity.
Everyone fears they might become the next target, inexplicably turning into the opponent's slaughter target.
Therefore they came early, hoping to see if there were any discoveries; at least learning more would also give them more means of self-protection.
But the reality undoubtedly left everyone utterly disappointed.
Ye Zhangqing, Tianlin, and they could not discern any reason; others were even less able to.
Walking around the ruined walls of Qing Song Immortal City for several rounds yielded nothing, and their mood grew increasingly heavy.
This group not only employed cruel methods, but also acted without leaving any trace.
Especially their strength, which even more so gave many cultivators a chill from the heart.
With such a band of unknown identity yet immense strength hiding in the Immortal Realm, who could feel at ease?
Have you found anything?
None.
Some acquaintances gathered together, whispering about something, but in the end they all shook their heads with complex expressions.
Everyone's answer was remarkably consistent; no one found any clue at this scene.
As everyone felt heavy-hearted and secretly speculated, Huang Lao and the three, who had not shown their whereabouts, now stood in the void with grim expressions.
Around them there was no one else; only Huang Lao and the three, who at this moment had removed the concealment from their faces, revealing their true appearances.
However, their expressions were each worse than the last, their faces darkened to the extreme, black as a pot bottom.
The Heavenly Family ancestor gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth.
The Blood Refining Grand Formation—I don't know who set it up, but it's truly a fine method.
Heh, looking across the entire Immortal Realm, let alone setting up a Blood Refining Grand Formation, even those who know of it are few enough to count on one hand; I think that old fogey is truly mad—daring to do such a monumental act is practically courting death.
The Heavenly Family ancestor said viciously, the killing intent in his eyes utterly undisguised.
Beside them, Huang Lao and Miao Qianqian said nothing, merely gazing with equally cold eyes.
Before coming, we had already attached enough importance to the matter of this Qing Song Immortal City; otherwise, the three of us would not have needed to come together in person.
But I never expected that, upon actually arriving here and observing the situation on the ground, I would discover that the actual circumstances were even more serious than before.
Even the ancient forbidden formation, the Blood Refining Grand Formation that the Immortal Realm had erased from existence, has appeared.
Then it is obvious that this matter could not possibly have been done by ordinary people; the person behind the scenes is practically a certainty, about to be revealed.
