Ling Yanzi had no idea that the Seasoned Master had already fallen into a trap. Seeing him suddenly standing still without using any treasures was the perfect opportunity for a counterattack, and he immediately took action.
Three sword lights, resembling rolling dragons, crisscrossed and flashed past. The Seasoned Master cried out in horror, "Don't kill me!" but it was already too late.
It seemed like nothing had changed, yet the Seasoned Master looked down at his body as strange blue-white rays of light pierced through countless tiny cracks in his skin, as if a blue lamp had lit up inside him. Suddenly, his head tilted to one side and rolled off his shoulder, then continued to roll down his body. Following that, a fountain of golden blood erupted from his torso, splattering high into the air. His entire body split neatly in two from the left shoulder down to the right hip. Finally, both thighs unexpectedly flew off at the roots.
In an instant, the consequences of the three sword strikes combined with twenty Aurora Needles became apparent. The Seasoned Master's body was torn into eight pieces and was further shredded by the chaotic power of Lightning within him, turning into a torrential rain of golden flesh and blood that fell from the sky.
The Seasoned Master was a true immortal who had survived the Tribulation and reshaped his body. Although his cultivation had regressed significantly, he had absorbed much spiritual energy from ascended immortals. Thus, like Li Hong, his physical body and Nascent Soul were one. This was different from Fuxi Xuanyuan, who had struggled as a mortal; their cultivation had regressed even more severely to the level of Nascent Soul. Therefore, as long as the Seasoned Master's body was destroyed and no significant remnants remained to allow for resurrection, he would be dead.
Now that the Seasoned Master had been reduced to countless irretrievable fragments, this founder of the Nine Li Sect and first generation sect leader, Ren Mo Nan, the Immortal Emperor, who had existed for nearly twenty thousand years, no longer existed.
Ling Yanzi stared in disbelief; he could never have imagined that he had personally annihilated an Ancestor!
During the fierce battle, he had always thought about capturing the Seasoned Master alive and giving him a chance. Yet he had ended up killing him with his own hands! The part of Ling Yanzi's memories and emotions tied to Ling Yi Zi made it nearly impossible for him to accept this reality. He stared blankly at the falling golden blood rain, almost in shock.
Although Aurora was timid, he wasn't foolish and understood the connection between the Seasoned Master and Ling Yanzi and Li Hong. Seeing Ling Yanzi's expression, he realized he felt guilty and quickly flew over to grab Ling Yanzi's arm. "It wasn't you who killed him; it was actually me! Even if you gave him three sword strikes, he wouldn't have died! It was my Aurora Needle! Did you see that blue lightning erupting from him before he died? That was my twenty Aurora Needles! So it was me who killed him! Now I'm begging you to save Tianqi Zi; if we don't get him out of that net soon, he's done for!"
One sentence reminded Ling Yanzi of their urgency, and they quickly flew over to Tianqi Zi's side.
Tianqi Zi was rolling around in panic under the strange Nether Web Artifact that was constricting him tightly; his eyes were rolling back in his head as he foamed at the mouth. Fortunately, with the Seasoned Master dead and no one commanding it, the Nether Web Artifact began to loosen its grip. The two of them exerted their strength together and finally managed to peel the Nether Web Artifact off Tianqi Zi.
Once Tianqi Zi caught his breath and heard that the Seasoned Master was dead—regardless of who killed him—he shouted loudly, "Well done! We finally avenged our brothers who died at his hands!"
Ling Yanzi felt a stir in his heart upon hearing this.
Yes, although as Ling Yanzi, this part of my memory does not allow me to betray my master and ancestors, the Seasoned Master is acting against the principles, willingly becoming Shin Yao's lackey, killing countless immortals who ascended from the Mortal Realm to absorb their powers. Such a person, even if they are an Ancestor, can be killed without guilt!
Thinking this way, Ling Yanzi suddenly felt enlightened. Just as he was about to fly to the Underground rift to find Li Hong, he felt a stir in his heart and unconsciously looked up.
In the distant sky, there was actually a battle group!
Aurora Tianqizi followed Ling Yanzi's gaze and was taken aback. Without further ado, the three of them immediately rushed over.
This was the original location of the Immortal Palace gate tower; now the gate tower had disappeared, but the Restrictions remained. Exiting from here would lead to Southern Outer City. Above the ruins of the original gate tower, five Fairies were engaged in a fierce battle. Among them, four women were working together to besiege a Fairy dressed in a green robe.
However, upon closer inspection, it was somewhat strange; it turned out that it wasn't just a siege. The Fairy in the center would immediately unleash various Strange Extreme Treasures whenever she saw an opponent trying to fly away, desperately entangling that person, which kept the battle group confined to the entrance of the Immortal Palace.
As Ling Yanzi flew closer, he recognized that the Fairy being besieged was none other than Yao Guang. Looking at those four women again, they were filled with animosity; they were actually four of the five Spider Demon sisters he had seen before! It turned out that Yao Guang was trying to prevent them from escaping! Without hesitation, Ling Yanzi let out a cold snort and sent three Flying Swords darting forward to strike at the three women.
The Spider Demons were no match for Ling Yanzi; seeing the Flying Swords coming at lightning speed, they couldn't even dodge in time. Their faces turned pale with fear; before they could scream, the Flying Swords arrived and instantly tore apart their transformed delicate bodies, revealing their true forms—huge spider carcasses covered in painful black hair scattered across the ground. With their bodies destroyed, three Demon Babies attempted to flee. Yao Guang shouted sharply and summoned a blazing Crimson Silk Extreme Treasure, pulling it over their heads. The three Demon Babies screamed as they were burned to ashes in an instant.
The last Spider Demon was so terrified that it didn’t dare fight back anymore; it withdrew its immortal sword and knelt in mid-air, raising its hands in despair and crying out: "Spare me! I am willing to serve Sister Yao Guang and all the immortals! Spare me!"
Yao Guang looked at Ling Yanzi with clear eyes filled with a faint warmth. She nodded at him before turning her furious gaze back at the Spider Demon and coldly said, "Who is your sister? Your sister has long been dead! Over these years, how many evil deeds have you six sisters committed? Do you still wish to live today? Even if you die today, it would be well-deserved!"
Although this Spider Demon pleaded for mercy towards Yao Guang with its mouth, its eyes kept darting towards Ling Yanzi. It knew very well that he was the one truly controlling its life and death. With a quick glance, this Spider Demon whispered, "Do you dare say you haven't done any evil deeds yourself? Hmph, it's just fifty steps laughing at a hundred steps!"
Yao Guang was instantly enraged; her face flushed red as she swiftly sent the Crimson Silk wrapping around the Spider Demon's neck.
The Crimson Silk extended towards the Spider Demon, and a strong hand suddenly reached out from the side, grabbing the blazing True Fire Crimson Silk.
Knowing that Ling Yanzi was much stronger than him, Yao Guang was still greatly surprised to see him casually grasping the True Fire Crimson Silk. However, upon reflection, his brows furrowed slightly.
As expected, Ling Yanzi said calmly, "Don't kill her yet; I still have some questions to clarify."
Yao Guang's clear eyes were filled with resentment. "Do you not trust me?"
Ling Yanzi shook his head and replied indifferently, "It's not a matter of trust."
Facing the unyielding Ling Yanzi, Yao Guang knew he had grown suspicious but felt it was pointless to argue further. He shot a resentful glance at the Spider Demon and stepped behind Ling Yanzi.
The Spider Demon lowered her head, appearing pitiful and delicate. With her back to Yao Guang, Ling Yanzi subtly furrowed his brow without anyone noticing. He reached out and personally pulled up the Spider Demon, kindly asking, "What is your rank? What is your name?"
"I am Green, a servant girl, willing to serve you for all eternity," Green answered cheerfully.
"Good, then you will follow me from now on," Ling Yanzi said as he turned to leave. Aurora and Tianqi Zi immediately followed. After a brief moment of hesitation, Yao Guang also caught up. The Spider Spirit Qingqing watched the four figures ahead with a flash of malice in her eyes but soon reverted to a weak and obedient demeanor, lowering her head to follow as well.

Li Hong and Heavenly Torch were sweating profusely.
The entire space was filled with roaring flames. Utilizing the innate divine power of Heavenly Torch, they lifted the main body of Shenlong along with the underlying Black Jade Platform by a foot, revealing hundreds of interwoven Exotic Silver Chains penetrating into the ground below.
Li Hong created clones and, along with his main body, activated his innate fire, burning the chains one by one.
His thoughts were indeed correct; although the Exotic Silver Chains were extremely tough and resilient, they could not withstand the high temperature of the innate fire. One by one, they slowly melted away, detaching from the long chain that extended into the Underground. The Black Jade Platform rose higher and higher as it split apart.
However, there were simply too many Exotic Silver Chains. By the time half of them had been severed, Li Hong Tian Zhu was starting to struggle. There was a distinction between the clones and Li Hong's main body; while the clones appeared unaffected, beads of sweat began to form on Li Hong's forehead. Heavenly Torch was in a similar state, with large droplets of sweat rolling down his face. He leaned back against the Black Jade Platform, panting heavily like a dog, and said, "Brother, what do you need this thing for? It's exhausting work; it's just not worth it! If you ask me, we should just burn it all down!"
"You are mistaken, brother!" Li Hong continued to burn the silver chains while calmly rebutting him. "The Shenlong's corpse is indeed top-notch material for refining weapons, and the Black Jade Platform is a treasure as well, but these two are not what matters. What matters are these silver chains."
"Silver chains?" Heavenly Torch was puzzled. "They're at most just refining materials; what's so important about them?"
"Not at all. These Exotic Silver Chains are incredibly tough by nature. I can assure you they are not from Middle-Earth; they can be used to set up the most crucial part of this False Immortal Realm. They won't fear Shenlong escaping; they must be a very rare treasure. This is our important clue. As long as we find out where these silver chains come from, we can follow the trail and definitely find the mastermind behind setting up the False Immortal Realm!"
Heavenly Torch's eyes lit up at this revelation, but he then heard Li Hong ponder aloud: "It is said that above the False Immortal Realm lies a higher true immortal realm, along with the distant Star Sect in that mysterious star domain and many other mysterious spaces. The world is actually vast and boundless. Heavenly Torch, we must travel everywhere; even if we have to traverse this great world, we will find the mastermind and locate Chu Xi!"
"Yes! Find the mastermind and locate Chu Xi! Hmph! When that time comes, I will definitely be the first to kill that damned fellow to avenge our Middle-Earth Cultivators for this Sea of Blood deep grudge!"
In a fit of rage, Heavenly Torch managed to lift the Black Jade Platform three feet higher, pulling out even longer Exotic Silver Chains from the Underground.
