There are no ancestors at all; I made them all up.

Chapter 102 Evil [Third Update]

"Om-"

Inside the main hall, the air seemed to freeze!
Including Shouyangzi, eight figures instantly dispersed, surrounding Chen Qing in the middle, their auras merging into one!
Shouyangzi's face was ferocious, flames surged around his body, and the aura of his perfected Yin spirit erupted without reservation!
The other seven were at least at the late stage of Yin Shen!
The eight Yin gods exerted their overwhelming pressure, like mountains, pressing down on the center!

"Fellow Daoist Jiming!" Shouyangzi laughed heartily. "Why not surrender and come with us to the Taiyi Dao Palace to explain the whole story and why you resorted to such ruthless methods! Let the sect judge, and there might still be room for maneuver! If you continue to resist stubbornly, swords have no eyes, and I'm afraid you'll damage your Dao foundation, and then it will be too late to regret it!"

“Exactly! We are not bloodthirsty people, we only seek justice!” another man added sinisterly. “Don’t ruin your future!”

"Insolence!" Fairy Huanyun's expression turned icy, her golden core roared, and three illusory figures suddenly appeared behind her!

An immense pressure erupted, ready to break the formation!
Shouyangzi and the others all paused, and their encirclement was broken open!
"Fellow Daoist Huanyun," the indifferent voice of True Immortal Chuxing rang out from the high platform, "rules cannot be disregarded."

"Buzz!"

A tremendous force suddenly descended, calming the golden core pressure that Fairy Huanyun had unleashed!

Huan Yun's spiritual light dimmed, and the three illusory images vanished like bubbles!

Her face paled slightly, and her eyes were blazing with anger!

The newly awakened True Man withdrew his hand and said calmly, "Golden Core cultivators cannot be attacked; this is an ironclad rule of the East Sea. As for young friend Ji Ming..."

He looked down at Chen Qing and said indifferently, "Since you dare to come here to 'ask for justice,' you must have something to rely on. If you can break this deadlock on your own, I will respectfully send you both away. If you are not as skilled as me, you should submit to the law and confess your crimes, which is also the way of heaven."

"Despicable!" Huan Yun gritted her teeth.

Seeing that their sect leader had suppressed Huan Yun, Shouyangzi and the others had no more worries, their smiles widened, and their auras reconnected.

"Jiming! Have you not surrendered and been executed!"

Before they could make another move, Chen Qing had already opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of water!
"Om-"

The yellow-green sword light reappears!

The sword's edge pierced the air, pointing directly at Shouyangzi's brow!

"Form the 'Eight Desolate Crimson Sun Lock'! Trapped it!"

Shouyangzi was prepared; the eight of them simultaneously made hand seals, their breaths merging together!
Eight crimson-gold chains shot out from their palms, crisscrossing and forming a giant crimson-gold net!

Flames raged above the light chain, distorting the very space that was being burned!

Elders Xia Bian and Han Feng of Biyue Pavilion suddenly narrowed their pupils and leaned forward slightly!
"The same technique, exposed and still hoping to achieve something? Wishful thinking!" Shouyangzi laughed wildly as he saw the sword light crash into the crimson-gold net, tightly bound by the chains and slowed down. "Shatter!"

He activated the formation with all his might, tightening the crimson-gold chains and scorching the flames, determined to shred and refine the sword light!

Upon seeing this, Chen Qing laughed and said, "If the same technique cannot be consistently effective, wouldn't we have to create a new one every time we fight? You see, if this technique can be passed down for ten thousand years, it is because we are constantly solving and breaking through problems, striving to achieve success in any situation! Turn around!"

Before he could finish speaking, his mind raced!

"Chi chi chi——"

The seemingly sluggish yellow-green sword light suddenly emitted a sharp cry! It abruptly turned, transforming into a drilling spiral!
At the edge of the sword's edge, a ripple of deathly gray aura and sharp sword intent formed!
"Snap! Sizzle—"

The crimson gold chain containing the power of eight Yin spirits was snapped, torn, and corroded like a rotten hemp rope!

"what?!"

"impossible!"

Shouyangzi's maniacal laughter froze, and the other seven were also shocked. They then desperately activated their magic to strengthen the chains!

However, it was too late!

The Death Spiral surged forward with unstoppable force, shredding through layers of obstacles. Its speed increased rather than decreased, and with a piercing shriek, it reached Shouyangzi's face!

"Sect Master, save me!" Shouyangzi was terrified!

On the high platform, Master Chuxing's expression finally changed, golden flames bursting from his eyes. He raised his hand, ready to forcefully intervene!
"Chu Xing! Where are the rules!" Fairy Huan Yun shouted sharply, her figure blocking Chu Xing's path. Although she had no imposing aura around her, the aura of a Golden Core cultivator locked onto him!
A fierce glint flashed in Chu Xing Zhenren's eyes. Instead of attacking Huan Yun with his raised right hand, he suddenly pressed down!
"Om!"

The entire main hall of the Sun Wheel shook violently!

The Ten-Day Celestial Map on the dome shone brightly, and crimson-gold runes cascaded down like a waterfall, transforming into a giant flaming palm that fiercely suppressed the sword beam that was about to pierce through Shouyangzi!
A Golden Core cultivator, using the power of the formation, intervened!

"Utterly shameless!" Fairy Huanyun shouted angrily, "Junior brother, make the talisman!"

However, just as the giant hand was about to strike the sword's edge!

Chen Qing suddenly opened his mouth again!

Eight sharp, tearing sounds, like the ripping of silk, resounded throughout the hall!
Eight more refined, faster, and more malevolent and domineering yellow-green sword beams shot out from his mouth!

The target is not just Shouyangzi, but all the Yin God Elders surrounding him!
"impossible!"

Shouyangzi was utterly shocked: "Shouldn't such a method only have one trump card?"

Chen Qingqi said, "Ultimate moves should be used evenly, isn't that common sense?" "Pfft!" "Pfft!" "Pfft!"

Eight soft sounds that almost overlapped!
The Yin God elders, utterly terrified, froze simultaneously!

Between their eyebrows, there appeared a charred, black hole that was transparent from front to back and filled with a deathly gray aura!

There was no blood, no screams.

The eight bodies, like rotten wood drained of all life, silently disintegrated and collapsed under the horrified gazes of everyone, turning into falling dust!
"receive!"

hum!
The sword light that had just finished its killing, along with the initial one, transformed into nine streams of light that swept back and disappeared into Chen Qing's sleeve!
A suffocating silence enveloped the main hall of the Sun Wheel!

The two elders, Xia Bian of Biyue Pavilion and Han Feng of Xuan Island, who were used to seeing all kinds of storms, were pale-faced and sweat poured down their foreheads. Their eyes were filled with fear as they looked at Chen Qing!

On the high platform, the newly awakened True Man's face twitched violently, and deep within his pupils, which pulsed with golden flames, was filled with anger and shock!
Fairy Huanyun looked at the ashes on the ground, her red lips slightly parted, but she couldn't make a sound.

"I didn't expect your Sunwheel Sect to prefer fighting first and then talking." Chen Qing dusted off the dust and looked up to ask, "Sect Leader Chuxing, can we now have a proper discussion about your Sunwheel Sect's crimes of massacring my Hidden Star disciples and ambush my sect's envoy on the way?"

"How dare you!" The newly awakened True Man erupted in crimson-gold flames, staring intently at Chen Qing's sleeve. "What an overwhelming sword talisman! It obliterates all things, pointing directly to the root! When has the Hidden Star Sect ever possessed such a devastating sword dao inheritance? What kind of evil art do you cultivate?!"

Chen Qing said calmly, "It didn't exist before, but it does now. I am not a sword cultivator; I merely gained some insights while practicing protective and lethal techniques, and created a spell from them. If you're worried about being implicated..."

He raised his eyes and changed the subject: "Sect Master Chuxing, as long as you hand over the mastermind and murderer who slaughtered my sect's disciples, I will immediately return to the sect to report!"

"Hand over the prisoners? Hahahaha! What arrogance!" Master Chuxing laughed wildly in fury, his voice shaking the palace. "You killed nine elders of my sect! You severed the backbone of my Sun Wheel Sect! And you still want me to hand over the prisoners?! You little beast! If I don't grind you to dust and extract your soul today, how will my Sun Wheel Sect's thousand-year foundation and reputation remain?!"

The violent pressure of the Golden Core cultivator, like a raging sea, crashed down!
All around, many distorted shadows appeared and disappeared!

"Seeing all living beings as demons!?" The two elders, Xia Bian and Han Feng from Biyue Pavilion, changed their expressions and retreated repeatedly. "The Golden Core cultivation of the Sun Wheel Sect Master has actually reached this level?!"

"Chu Xing! Where are the rules!" Fairy Huan Yun's expression also changed, but she still stepped forward, her aura rising again as she forcefully withstood it!
Boom!

Two powerful forces collided in the hall!
The air bursts!

"Illusion Cloud!" A fierce glint appeared in the eyes of the newly awakened True Immortal. "If you dare to obstruct me again, don't blame me for killing you as well!"

at this time.

"My master said that Li Qing must not be harmed. Chu Xing, have you forgotten?"

A voice rang out, and then the light at the palace gate distorted, as if a figure stepped out of nothingness.

"The Sun Wheel Sect is indeed full of useless people; they can't even handle such a small matter properly."

The newcomer was dressed in a plain white crane cloak, with a cold and stern face and eyes as cold as an ancient pool. He looked down at Chen Qing with indifference and said, "Li Qing, come with me back to the Taiyi Dao Palace to settle your karma with the Chu family and complete your familial marriage. This is the will of Heaven and your destiny. Do not resist any longer and invite disaster."

As he finished speaking, an even more powerful pressure than that of a newly awakened True Person spread out!
The True Immortal's expression changed slightly upon awakening, and the raging flames around him silently subsided!
Xia Bian of Biyue Pavilion and Master Hanfeng of Xuan Island hurriedly bowed and greeted Master Xuangui: "Greetings, Master Xuangui!"

Upon hearing this name, Fairy Huanyun's expression changed drastically.

Master Xuan Gui, a disciple of Master Dongming of Taiyi Palace!

This person advanced to the Golden Core stage a hundred years ago, and his fearsome reputation precedes him!

Even so, seeing that the other party was targeting Chen Qing, Huan Yun still stepped forward and said, "Fellow Daoist Xuan Gui, Junior Brother Jiming is a true disciple of our Hidden Star Sect, sent on a mission with the sect leader's decree! Is the Taiyi Dao Palace going to openly trample on the ironclad rules of the East Sea Dao Alliance and forcibly abduct a disciple of a superior sect?!"

"Iron Law?" Master Xuan Gui slightly raised his eyelids and looked over. She felt an invisible shackle on her body, and even the circulation of her golden core became extremely difficult!
"The ironclad rules of the East Sea Alliance have no effect on my Taiyi Dao Palace," Master Xuangui said indifferently. "If you dare to make any more noise, I will seal you up here."

After saying that, he stopped looking at Huanyun and fixed his gaze on Chen Qing again, with a hint of impatience: "Li Qing, come with me, and I can guarantee your life, and you may even receive a great fortune."

Chen Qing simply shook his head: "I'm not going."

A hint of anger finally flashed across Master Xuan Gui's face!
"You don't know what's good for you!" he sneered. "Chu Xing, take him down! The Dao Alliance oath has backfired, and all sides will hold you accountable. The Dao Palace will take responsibility for you!"

The True Immortal's face turned extremely ugly, but he still nodded in agreement. Then he suddenly looked up, and crimson-gold flames erupted around him, like a sun falling to earth!
"You little beast! Stay here!"

"Junior brother! Go!" Fairy Huanyun shouted fiercely, rushing to Chen Qing's side. She pushed him with her delicate hand, and a gentle force surged towards Chen Qing, urging him to crush the Yin-Shifting Talisman immediately!

At the same time, the three golden core phantoms behind her head reappeared. Although they were suppressed by the aura of True Person Xuan Gui and their radiance was dimmed, they stubbornly burst out with a brilliant light, transforming into a condensed moon-white halo that faced the falling sun! The halo rotated, and the Dao patterns flowed, trying to buy time for Chen Qing!
"You cannot leave! Today, no one from the Hidden Star Sect, regardless of their talisman, will escape! Eight Directions Star-Suppressing Tower! Rise!"

The newly awakened True Man suddenly raised his hand and pressed it hard towards the gray-white stone tower outside the hall!
"Buzz—whoosh—"

The eerie stone tower, made of countless fragments of stone, emitted a muffled hum!

The tower shone with a bright gray light, and wisps of gray vapor seeped from its twisted cracks! Accompanied by a mournful wail, it pierced through the stone wall and poured into the main hall!

"Well!"

Upon hearing this voice, Fairy Huanyun, who was in the process of activating her Golden Core, froze! Her protective aura trembled violently, and it felt as if thousands of steel needles were piercing her brain!
Her face turned deathly pale instantly, and her eyes revealed disbelief, horror, and excruciating pain!
Her gaze shifted to the eerie tower outside the hall, radiating a dark gray light, her fingernails digging into her palms without her noticing.

"Soul Tower?! You old fool, Chu Xing! How dare you imprison the remnant souls of my Hidden Star Sect members in such an evil creature?! You beast!!!"

　Ten thousand words at midnight! Whew—
