Chapter 423 The Destruction of the Blood Slaughter Hall
Chapter 423 The Destruction of the Blood Slaughter Hall
……
At this moment.
It is billions of miles away from here.
Deep in the westernmost part of the Nine Heavens Continent lies a desolate wasteland known as the "Forbidden Zone of Life."
This place is plagued by sandstorms and turbulent spatial currents year-round, and even cultivators at the King Realm dare not venture here lightly.
However, hidden 10,000 meters underground in this land of death is a magnificent yet sinister underground palace.
This is the headquarters of the Blood Slaughter Hall, a name that strikes fear into the hearts of countless forces across the Nine Heavens Continent!
Inside the palace, the blood pool churned, and countless vengeful spirits wailed.
An old man with a gaunt face and wearing a blood-red robe sat cross-legged on a skull throne in the center of the blood pool.
He is none other than the Lord of the Blood Slaughter Hall—the Blood Demon Ancestor!
A terrifying being who has lived for over five thousand years and whose cultivation has reached the Great Saint Realm.
Although he was a great sage, he acted with extreme caution.
Because the Blood Slaughter Hall's deeds were truly despicable. They not only assassinated the geniuses of various holy lands, but also robbed others of their imperial scriptures and desecrated their ancestral graves.
This resulted in him having enemies all over the Nine Heavens Continent.
If we hadn't hidden in this godforsaken place, we probably would have been wiped out long ago by the combined might of several ancient clans and their imperial weapons.
"call……"
At this moment.
The Blood Demon Ancestor, who was in seclusion cultivating, suddenly felt somewhat uneasy.
The body's Qi and blood were churning erratically, making it impossible to enter a meditative state.
"strangeness……"
Why do I feel this trepidation?
"Could it be that an enemy has tracked us down here?"
The Blood Demon Ancestor suddenly opened his eyes, his cloudy old eyes flashing with surprise and uncertainty.
"impossible!"
"This place is concealed by a heaven-deceiving array pattern; even a quasi-emperor level expert would be completely unaware of it without careful investigation!"
"Could it be a problem with one of the recent orders?"
Just as he was becoming suspicious...
Sudden.
A terrifying aura that made the entire underground palace tremble violently descended without warning!
Rumble—!!!
The once incredibly sturdy underground space was now groaning under the strain.
The defensive formation instantly lit up with a blinding light, but it only lasted for a moment before shattering like glass!
"This...this is?!"
The Blood Demon Ancestor suddenly stood up, his face turning deathly pale.
He looked up in horror.
Even through a layer of soil tens of thousands of meters thick, he could still clearly sense it...
Above the sky outside.
A gigantic golden hand, so large it blotted out the sky, descended slowly, just like an ancient divine mountain!
That palm covered an area spanning tens of thousands of miles.
The palm lines are clearly visible, and each line seems to contain the laws of the universe that can destroy the heavens and the earth.
At the very center of that palm, the Blood Demon Ancestor felt an aura that made his very soul tremble!
That's not the Great Sage.
That is……
A supreme being who stands above all living beings, just one step away from attaining the Dao and becoming an emperor!
"A quasi-emperor?!"
These two words were uttered with difficulty by the Blood Demon Ancestor, filled with endless despair and disbelief.
"How is that possible?!"
"How could there possibly be a living quasi-emperor in this world?!"
"And... why did they attack my Blood Slaughter Hall?!"
He couldn't figure it out.
He didn't even have a chance to beg for mercy.
Because the palm descended at a seemingly slow speed, it actually sealed off all space and time in this area.
escape?
Where can we escape to?
The space has been completely frozen, and even the teleportation talisman has become useless!
"No!"
"I am the Great Sage! I am not reconciled!"
The Blood Demon Ancestor let out a mournful roar, his body engulfed in raging blood flames, as he made a final, desperate attempt.
However, before that giant hand that descended from the sky...
The rebellion of a great sage is like an ant raising its antennae, trying to stop a meteorite falling from the sky.
It's both laughable and tragic.
boom---!
A deafening roar echoed throughout the western part of the entire Nine Heavens Continent.
At this moment, an unprecedented earthquake struck the desert known as the forbidden zone of death.
A mushroom cloud rose into the sky, soaring straight into the heavens, and the entire Nine Heavens Continent seemed to tremble.
When the dust settles.
The once rolling sand dunes have disappeared.
The palace that was originally hidden underground has disappeared.
The once invincible Great Sage powerhouse and tens of thousands of elite assassins from the Blood Slaughter Hall have all vanished.
Instead, there was a huge palm print that was thousands of feet deep and covered an area of tens of thousands of miles!
Within the palm print, countless even more chaotic spatial currents rippled out, extinguishing all life force in this place.
Only the lingering, terrifying Daoist aura testifies to the supreme power of that attack.
……
"Okay, all done."
Lin Hanzhou clapped his hands lightly, as if he had done something insignificant.
He turned his head, looked at Jiang Ling who still had a blank expression, and asked gently.
"Alright, all the flies are dead."
"Young lady, now you can tell me, what are your plans for the future?"
Jiang Ling stared blankly at Lin Hanzhou.
She had no idea that in that instant, the Blood Slaughter Hall, which had struck fear into the hearts of countless people, had become history.
All she felt was that the smile of the senior in front of her...
It makes me feel so safe!
Jiang Ling took a deep breath, suppressing the shock in her heart, and bowed gracefully to Lin Hanzhou once again.
"I have no way to repay your great kindness and virtue, senior."
"Now the Jiang family has fallen into decline, and its members have scattered. Only I escaped with the Emperor's Scripture."
"If you don't mind, senior..."
Jiang Ling bit her lip, a determined glint in her eyes.
"Jiang Ling is willing to follow you, Senior, as your servant, only asking that you protect me for a time!"
She knew it very well.
Possessing a treasure is a crime.
Although the people from the Blood Slaughter Hall are dead, the news of the Jiang Family Imperial Scripture has definitely been leaked.
Given her current condition and strength, she definitely wouldn't survive more than three days if she were to travel alone!
The only way to survive is to cling to the powerful figure in front of you.
Lin Hanzhou looked at the determined-looking girl and stroked his chin.
"Follow me?"
"It's not that it's impossible."
"It just so happens that I'm unfamiliar with this Nine Heavens Continent and need a guide."
"and……"
Lin Hanzhou shook the jade slip containing the "Burning Heaven Emperor Scripture" in his hand.
After he received the inheritance, the jade slip was already broken.
"Since we took your things, it's only right that we protect you."
"However, I'd rather be a slave or a maid."
"I don't like that kind of thing."
"You can be my... um, nominal mentor."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ling's eyes instantly lit up with ecstatic joy, and she immediately knelt down again.
"Thank you so much, senior! Thank you so much, young master!!"
"Since you are a member of the Jiang family..."
Lin Hanzhou suddenly remembered something and asked:
"Then you should know where the Jiang family's ancestral home is, right?"
Jiang Ling was taken aback, then nodded, her expression somewhat somber.
"I know... but that place has already been occupied by other forces..."
"Oh?"
Lin Hanzhou raised an eyebrow, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes.
"It's been occupied?"
"That's perfect."
"Come on, lead the way."
"Now that I've read the Imperial Scripture, I'll take the opportunity to visit the ancestral home of the Jiang family."
"By the way..."
"I'll help you get some interest back."
Jiang Ling suddenly looked up and stared into Lin Hanzhou's deep, starry eyes, her heart pounding violently.
Is this senior trying to stand up for the Jiang family?!
