Chapter 1583: You must die!

These idiots, even when death is imminent, have they never thought of escaping the Eternal Life Sect's control?

Seeing these Chen River forces, the first thought that came to mind was actually to flee.

It is quite obvious they want to go to the Eternal Life Sect's garrison to seek refuge.

That garrison is just at the other end of the Chen River.

Lu Xuan gave a faint smile, "Give them a little time, then we'll destroy the garrison together."

Yang Tianming's eyes burned with flame, "This is them seeking their own death!"

Above the Void, the Xia Dong Chan is still devouring Gu creature Dao Resonance.

Lu Xuan then unleashed a stream of medical dao power to heal Yang Tianming's wounds.

"Hmm..."

Yang Tianming gritted his teeth, again feeling that mysterious impact, the refreshing sensation almost permeating every pore.

Simply beyond wonderful!

"Thank you, Venerable Lu."

Lu Xuan gave a faint nod.

After a moment's hesitation, Yang Tianming asked, "Venerable Lu, are you also versed in Gu arts?"

Lu Xuan casually replied, "A little, a little."

Yang Tianming suddenly slapped his own forehead.

What's so strange about this?

Venerable Lu is the master of myriad ways; what's a mere Gu art?

What he's actually more curious about is Venerable Lu's attitude toward the Gu Clan and Gu creatures.

"Venerable Lu, how do you view the Gu Clan and Gu creatures?" Yang Tianming probed.

Lu Xuan said lightly, "No special view. Gu creatures can be used, as long as one doesn't become their slave. My eleventh disciple is of the Gu Clan, or rather a half-human, half-Gu bloodline."

Yang Tianming was stunned.

Lu Xuan patted Yang Tianming's shoulder, "Open your eyes to see the world. However, the current situation is that the Gu Clan is indeed humanity's great enemy."

Yang Tianming somewhat came to realize.

Over the next few days, the forces on the Chen River all fled, heading to the garrison at Duanmu Mountain.

None of the forces came to seek refuge with Lu Xuan.

Meanwhile, Yang Tianming was contemplating his fist intent, while Qingqiu continued forward along the Chen River, refining the Mandate Qi.

Outside the garrison at Duanmu Mountain, all the human forces gathered, and Duanmu Mountain couldn't drive them away.

These forces stationed themselves in the Void, claiming they wanted to share life and death with the garrison.

Duanmu Mountain refuted them, "Coexist in life and death? When the white-robed man arrives, you won't even have the qualification to fight! Get lost!"

The many human powerhouses bowed and kneeled, saying, "Elder Duanmu, we cannot return now! Unless that white-robed man dies!"

"What a bunch of trash!" Duanmu Mountain raged, "You've brought no value to the Eternal Life Sect, yet you still want us to protect you!"

The many human forces trembled, daring not to speak.

On the Chen River, death is certain!

They are waiting for Elder Mo Gu to send stronger individuals to slay that white-robed man.

One day, Lu Xuan gazed into the distance at the Eternal Life Sect's garrison, and said lightly, "On the Chen River, aside from a few sparse forces, the rest have fled to the Eternal Life Sect's garrison. Then it's time to finish it."

His big hand reached out directly toward that distant place.

"Plucking Stars Hand!"

A huge Void handprint swept across the entire long river, crashing over.

Boom—

Wherever that great Void handprint passed, the Chen River surged up and down, stirred by its mighty force, causing the Star River to ripple.

On the Chen River, the remaining few forces were all startled.

"That white-robed man has finally struck again!"

"He seems to want to wipe out Elder Duanmu's garrison in one fell swoop!"

"Now the major forces on the Chen River have all withdrawn, gathered together; this strike is truly a one-time solution!"

They somewhat rejoiced that they had not left.

This great handprint's aura was overwhelming, with lightning and thunder upon it, evolving myriad slaughter dao diagrams, extremely fast, and killing intent continually surging.

It soon descended upon the Eternal Life Sect's garrison!

"What is that?"

Many Gu Clan members exclaimed in surprise.

In their eyes, that Void great handprint was growing ever larger, like a vast domain, bearing endless killing intent, enveloping a heavenly momentum, drawing upon stellar power, the surrounding Divine Light surged, and myriad destructive forces crashed like waves against the shore.

Outside the garrison, some human powerhouses were shocked on the spot.

"Heavens! That is the white-robed man's aura!"

"He actually struck us from across a Chen River!"

"Damn it! He intends to wipe us all out in one net!"

The many human powerhouses immediately sought Elder Duanmu's aid.

Duanmu Mountain's face turned pale; he naturally had already sensed this terrifying strike, his eyes nearly bursting, "This person is simply lawless, intending to annihilate our entire garrison!"

He flicked his sleeve and commanded, "Activate the formation!"

Within the entire stellar garrison, numerous formation Gu began to light up; in the Void above, complex phantasms intertwined, these formation diagrams constantly shifting—there were ink-wash landscape scrolls, brilliant golden lotuses, ancient massive walls… appearing impregnable.

This great formation enclosed the garrison's core entirely, without regard for the external human forces.

All the human forces knelt on the ground and shouted.

"Elder Duanmu, save us!"

"We don't want to die!"

But Duanmu Shan snorted coldly; they could barely protect themselves, yet still had time to attend to these subordinate forces.

With a boom, Lu Xuan's Void Great Hand Seal descended; the entire Void trembled, and within the Plucking Stars Hand the Dao Diagram roared, likewise containing myriad phenomena—sword lights and blade shadows, ancient giant trees, boundless rivers… these were all manifestations of killing intent.

Spirit Energy Great Explosion!

"Boom—"

The grand formation of the Changsheng Sect's base was as fragile as paper, shattering in an instant.

The Plucking Stars Hand descended directly, its killing intent overflowing; wherever it passed, all living beings and stars were destroyed.

"No! No……"

Elder Duanmu Shan howled, his eyes bloodshot, but to no avail.

Successive explosive forces shook the very heavens, fire filled the sky, stellar power surged, golden thunderbolts streaked everywhere, and everything was turning to nothing!

"Bang bang bang!"

This strike was world-ending!

Moments later, the entire base of the Changsheng Sect lay in ruins, with no living beings surviving.

Dozens of stars shattered outright, turning into fragments that drifted in the Void, and all their cultivation foundations scattered.

With a light pluck, the Plucking Stars Hand swept up all cultivation resources.

Lu Xuan handed it all over to Qingqiu.

Above the Chen River, all surviving forces fell silent.

This is too terrifying!

Just then.

"Boom boom boom boom!"

Above the ruins of the Changsheng Sect's base, Void Passages emerged one after another.

Then came one Gu Clan expert after another in the Dao Actuality Realm.

Leading them, a gray‑robed middle‑aged man was actually a Four‑Star Dao Actuality Realm cultivator!

His face was icy cold as he gazed down at the base turned to ruins, his killing intent growing; his divine sense swept across the entire Chen River, locking onto Lu Xuan Above the Void, and he snarled, "You must die!"
