Chapter 152: Target: The Great Qin Empire!

"Boom! Crack!"

However, this time, the statue being besieged by the crowd did not release the terrifying white divine radiance to sweep across the battlefield as it had before.

Instead, accompanied by a sound, a crack appeared on it.

"It seems that this statue of the Sacred Ground's founder has finally cracked after receiving too many attacks just now."

Looking at that crack, Xu Kun's face was filled with regret.

This was a symbol of the former glory of their Human Race; he had not expected it to end up in such a state today.

"Heh, so it was just a bluff!"

At this moment, the Blood Demon Race powerhouse who had been scared into fleeing in a panic by the strange noise from the statue had actually returned.

Seeing that the statue had merely developed a crack, they immediately regained their previous arrogance and ferocity.

At this moment, the remaining Demon Race and a portion of the Human Race powerhouses in this space were once again eyeing the statue covetously!

Seeing this crack, they all assumed that the final treasures of the Tianlan Sacred Ground might be hidden inside the statue.

As more and more cracks appeared on the statue, greedy gazes emerged all around.

Seeing this, Xu Kun's expression was extremely ugly, so gloomy it was as if water could drip from it.

Clearly, just a moment ago, he had already persuaded most people to deal with those of the Demon Race.

But he had not expected that because the statue had cracked, these people would be blinded by greed.

Most of them had actually forgotten the deep hatred between them and the Demon Race once again.

The blood feud was right before their eyes, yet these fellows only cared about the immediate benefits before them.

Xu Kun was furious inside; it was often said that the Demon Race frequently had internal strife, but wasn't the Human Race the same?!

For the sake of their own selfish desires, they acted independently and schemed against each other; the evil of human nature was forever impossible to fathom.

Some had even begun attacking the statue again to be the first to obtain the treasure, not taking the so-called Human-Demon hatred to heart at all.

"These people, how can they be like this?!"

"Is there nothing left in their eyes but profit?!"

Inside the internal space of the statue, tears welled up in Lin Xueer's beautiful eyes.

At this moment, they could clearly see the situation happening in the main hall outside from within.

Those scenes of the ugliness of human nature were all revealed without doubt at this moment.

This left them, having just slain the Corpse Demon King, feeling incomparably disappointed.

Back then, in order to resist the Corpse Demon Race, the entire Tianlan Sacred Ground had almost sacrificed itself.

The Saint-level powerhouse had even been willing to seal herself within the statue for countless years just to trap this Corpse Demon King.

For all these years, she had never stopped fighting for the Human Race, yet these people outside were unwilling to spare even a statue for their own selfish desires.

They were even willing to collude with the Demon Race.

The group even suspected that if Xu Kun were not a general of the Great Jin Dynasty, these people blinded by greed might even have attacked him.

"Shui Yan, didn't you say that we Beast Tamers should have the world in our hearts and take saving the common people as our own responsibility?"

"But look at the ugly faces of this group of guys; is there even any need to save them?!"

Yi Zimeng also felt incomparably chilled at this moment; human nature was so base.

Even Hu Xiaoxiao, who was always boisterous, was now frowning, feeling it was very pathetic.

"They... cannot represent everyone."

Although Luo Shuiyan was also somewhat uncomfortable with this situation outside, she adjusted quickly.

"Among our Human Race, there are still many kind people who persist in justice."

"And this portion makes up the majority of the Human Race; otherwise, our Human Race would not have been able to survive for countless years and continue to grow more prosperous."

Most of the people gathered in the Secret Realm at this time were from those noble families and clans; they were already blinded by greed and corrupted by power and wealth.

But it was different in other places; there were still many people who remembered the hatred between the two races.

There were still many people fighting incessantly to defend the land of the Human Race.

In her past life, as Empress, Luo Shuiyan had united many forces and led the Human Race to fight a great war against the Demon Race. She had seen too many Human Race powerhouses and geniuses fall on the battlefield.

For the sake of the greater cause of the Human Race, they had gone forward without hesitation; Luo Shuiyan would not forget those passionate souls.

Likewise, she would never lose hope in the entire Human Race because of the ugly faces of these filthy people.

"Young person, I did not expect you to have such a pure heart; truly, even I feel inferior."

"Now that the Corpse Demon King has been completely eradicated, I have nothing left to be attached to in this world..."

The ethereal voice of that Saint-level powerhouse echoed in the space at this moment.

"From this day forward, the Tianlan Sacred Ground will be extinct forever."

"These people are extremely greedy for treasure; they have long since had their eyes blinded by desire."

"If you leave from this statue, you will certainly be subjected to endless pursuit; let me send you on your final journey."

As the woman of the Tianlan Sacred Ground finished speaking, her figure also began to gradually become illusory.

And Luo Shuiyan and her group were enveloped by a faint white light. Around their bodies, there was nothing but vast and boundless Space Power.

Bang! A loud noise came from the main hall at this moment, and the statue symbolizing the founder of a Human Race Sacred Ground shattered directly.

To the disappointment of the many powerhouses present, the interior of the statue was completely empty; there was no such thing as a rare treasure.

However, the crowd, whose eyes had long been blinded by greed, did not even spare these statue fragments, and for a time, they began to scramble for them like a plague of locusts.

"Not good, the Secret Realm is unstable; without the statue's support, this space seems to be collapsing!"

"Those who aren't afraid of death, stay here and keep grabbing; those who want to live, run quickly!"

Xu Kun noticed the signs in the surrounding space and hurriedly shouted for everyone to leave.

He discovered that this space was collapsing, and the Secret Realm would soon be swallowed by a space storm.

By then, everyone would be ground into powder.

In an instant, the crowd that had just been scrambling to loot was struck with immense terror and fled toward the exit one after another.

Outside, at Stone Beach.

A hundred miles away from the entrance to that Secret Realm, a flash of white light suddenly flickered.

Immediately after, Luo Shuiyan and the other three, along with Jiang Che and a group of Spirit Beasts, appeared in this place.

At this moment, Jiang Che had already recovered from his Kirin True Body state to his original form and was lying quietly in Luo Shuiyan's arms.

"Whew!"

Luo Shuiyan let out a long sigh of relief; the eradication of the Corpse Demon King this time had extended the fortune of the Human Race by at least a hundred years.

"Eh? Is it already over?"

At this time, Jiang Che also slowly woke up and stretched lazily; he felt incredibly refreshed all over.

After swallowing the three high-grade medicinal pills, there were no lingering side effects at all.

And Jiang Che's cultivation realm had also successfully broken through to level sixty-one, truly stepping into the Seventh Rank.

With Jiang Che's current strength, if he were to unleash Dharma Aspect Heaven and Earth, I fear that even someone at the peak of the Venerable Rank like the Yin Family ancestor could not guarantee absolute suppression.

"It's already over. Xiaobai, this time it was all thanks to you!"

Luo Shuiyan said with a face full of joy, and Yi Zimeng and the other two hurriedly crowded over; seeing that Jiang Che was fine, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"By the way, where are we going next?"

Jiang Che asked softly, which was also what the others wanted to know.

After all, Sima Qingtian had already developed the intent to kill them, and Da Jin was no longer safe.

"We will not return to Da Jin for the time being."

Luo Shuiyan had long since made arrangements for the upcoming plan.

She knew that Jiang Che did not like her keeping plans to herself, so she continued.

"Next, we will cross Chu and Qi Kingdom to go to a nation called Da Qin..."
