Chapter 927: Has the Master Lost His Mind?

Yin Qi only kept useful memories such as cultivation insights, while sealing away all other memories.

Finally, he picked up the last crystal.

This crystal was milky white; it was precisely the Innate Supernatural Power crystal 'Dao Transformation' belonging to Tianyu Daoren.

'Dao Transformation' is the Innate Supernatural Power of Tianyu Daoren; it can forcibly assist others in transforming into the Dao and is a very formidable supernatural power.

Even if one is a small realm or two higher, one will still fall victim to it if not careful.

As the supernatural power crystal was refined, Yin Qi also mastered this Innate Supernatural Power; he seemed to have a special connection with the Heavenly Dao and could invoke the power of the Heavenly Dao to forcibly assimilate the Primordial Spirit of others.

Counting them up now, he has already mastered five Innate Supernatural Powers: Devour, Clone, Space Escape, Word Manifestation, and Dao Transformation.

Of course, the twelve-lineage Witch supernatural powers are not included.

………

This night, Yin Qi was very busy.

He haunted every corner of the Honghuang, capturing every Golden Immortal of the Chan Sect into his Inner Heaven and Earth. Because he had masked the Heavenly Secret in advance, even Yuanshi Tianzun did not notice.

In the end, excluding Antarctic Immortal, Guangchengzi, and the sixteen Ordinary Golden Immortals staying at Yuxu Palace, as well as Huanglong Zhenren, Yuding Zhenren, and Daoxing Tianzun who were not at Yuxu Palace.

All other Chan Sect Golden Immortals, totaling four hundred and twenty-three, were rounded up by Yin Qi in one fell swoop.

At Yuxu Palace, under the very eyelids of Yuanshi, Yin Qi naturally did not dare to rashly approach.

As for Huanglong Zhenren, Yuding Zhenren, and Daoxing Tianzun, they were all personal disciples of the Saint and certainly possessed means bestowed by Yuanshi Tianzun; he worried that killing them would alert Yuanshi Tianzun.

The Chan Sect is too vast; sparing the lives of those three would be of no help to the Chan Sect anyway.

……

Returning to Zhaoge again, it was already late at night.

Yin Qi entered his Inner Heaven and Earth, devoured all four hundred and twenty-three Golden Immortals, and transformed them into Cultivation Crystals, after which he sent one hundred and fifty to Zhang Shaokang and Yao Chen each.

He kept the remaining Golden Immortal crystals for the time being, to be bestowed upon meritorious officials later.

Because these Golden Immortals had their cultivation forcibly lifted by Yuanshi Tianzun and their potential exhausted, the cultivators who achieve Golden Immortal status by consuming these Cultivation Crystals this time would also have no potential to speak of.

But achieving Golden Immortal status is already the peak dream of ninety-nine point nine nine nine... percent of cultivators.

……

The next day.

Yuxu Palace.

Antarctic Immortal rushed into the main hall in a hurry and said in a panic, "Master, something terrible has happened."

The Yuanshi Good Corpse frowned slightly and said in a soft shout, "To be so flustered, what kind of decorum is this? Speak slowly if there is something to say."

If he were scolded like this at ordinary times, Antarctic Immortal would certainly be trembling with fear.

But now, he could not care about such things.

"Master, this disciple previously contacted an Outer Sect Golden Immortal junior brother, wanting to hear his report, but when the message was sent, there was no response, whether via WeChat or various secret message techniques."

Antarctic Immortal said in a panic, "At first, this disciple did not pay it any mind, thinking the other party might be busy with something. But then, this disciple contacted many more Outer Sect Golden Immortal junior brothers, and none of them could be reached.

Now, besides us disciples remaining at Yuxu Palace, and junior brothers Huanglong, Yuding, and Daoxing who can be reached, all other four hundred-plus Outer Sect Golden Immortal junior brothers have lost contact."

"What!"

Even Yuanshi Tianzun stood up in shock.

The true self of Yuanshi Tianzun, far away in Yuqing Heaven, calculated even more rapidly, and subsequently discovered with horror that all four hundred-plus of his Golden Immortal disciples had perished.

Yuanshi Tianzun's first reaction was that it was impossible.

These were four hundred Golden Immortals; to prevent them from being assassinated, he had long since interfered with the Heavenly Secret regarding them. How could they all have been killed in a single night?

Moreover, the murderer was very clever, avoiding his personal disciples.

The second reaction was that the Chan Sect was going to collapse. In this current era of great contention, where the Golden Immortals of various sects number in the hundreds, or even thousands like the Dragon-Phoenix-Qilin, what use are the twenty-something Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect?

The vast orthodoxy will all fall hereafter.

The third reaction was who the murderer actually was, to have such ruthless means?

Slaughtering over four hundred Golden Immortals, if not breaking the spine of the Chan Sect, at least it was cut in half, eliminated ahead of time.

"Who, who exactly is it?"

Yuanshi Tianzun shouted sharply, his face looking ugly.

No matter how good his composure was, he could not hold it together at this moment; the loss was truly too heavy.

One must know how much effort and resources he had expended to cultivate those four hundred-plus Golden Immortals.

In an instant, various suspicious figures flashed through his mind.

Unfortunately, after going through all suspicious figures several times, he still had no conclusion, because even if the Saints themselves took action, they would have no way to slaughter so many of his Golden Immortals in a single night.

It was not a lack of ability, but a lack of such speed.

Unless...

Yuanshi Tianzun thought of Hongjun Daozu; only he would have this ability, but that was impossible.

Please... you.... bookmark 6... 9... book....!

The Saint was furious; even if it was just a Good Corpse, the terror of his might pressed Antarctic Immortal down until he knelt directly, unable to even lift his head, and could only grovel on the ground.

He felt like a fish kicked onto the shore, almost suffocating to death.

Fortunately, Yuanshi Tianzun noticed and could only forcibly suppress the anger in his heart, withdrawing his aura.

Huff, huff!

Antarctic Immortal gasped violently, his face as pale as paper.

After a long while, his complexion turned slightly rosy, and he asked cautiously, "Master, what should we do next?"

Cold light flickered in Yuanshi Tianzun's eyes as he gritted his teeth and said, "No matter who it is, this Daoist will drag them out. Furthermore, contract completely; recall all sect members and disciples from all over the Honghuang and hold the Kunlun Mountain Domain."

With over four hundred Golden Immortals slaughtered in a single night, such major news could not be kept hidden.

To avoid greater losses and being carved up by various forces, they could only recall all sect members and disciples, especially those cultivators above the Heavenly Immortal realm; this was the future spark of the Chan Sect.

"If they cannot reach the Kunlun Mountain Domain, the sect shall disband on the spot, and everyone must hide their identities to await the right moment."

The Honghuang is too vast; even a Heavenly Immortal cannot traverse such infinite distances.

Since that is the case, then they shall hide their identities on the spot.

In any case, with WeChat, he still possessed supreme leadership over the sect members and disciples, which would not lead to them becoming disaffected or defecting from the sect.

"Yes, Master."

Antarctic Immortal also knew that this was the best method for the moment.

After he agreed, he turned to leave, but was called back by Yuanshi Tianzun: "Wait!"

Antarctic Immortal bowed and said: "What other instructions does Master have?"

Yuanshi said: "You, along with Guangchengzi, Huanglong, Yuding, Yunzhongzi, and Daoxing, prepare yourselves; I will bestow upon you some items for self-defense and life-preservation, and you shall go to conquer the Heavens Demon World."

The Heavens Demon World has both large and small realms, and not every Demon World has given birth to a Great Luo Golden Immortal.

Therefore, those like Yunzhongzi can also go and venture there.

Although the process is somewhat dangerous.

But in extraordinary times, one must take extraordinary measures; Guangchengzi and the others must improve their cultivation as quickly as possible, preferably advancing to Great Luo Golden Immortal or even Quasi-Saint, so that he will not be left with no one to use.

"Conquer the Heavens Demon World?"

Antarctic Immortal was somewhat stunned, looking at Yuanshi Tianzun in confusion.

Their Chan Sect had already been crippled by a single blow, and now they were to go and conquer some Heavens Demon World; had Master lost his mind? (End of this chapter)
