LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 142
Chapter 167: Immortal Palace
Zhao Gou’s face turned ashen.
Forget about the Third Prince; he’d personally want to massacre those scum too.
“Bunch of useless trash!”
Zhao Gou muttered darkly.
“Huh?”
Liu Shunyi looked at Zhao Gou in confusion.
At that moment, Zhao Gou put on the invisibility cloak and whispered, “My medical skills haven’t progressed much lately. Once the secret realm opens, let’s go save more lives.”
Liu Shunyi smiled and nodded.
—
The Third Prince noticed that most people had arrived.
No more stalling; he was ready to open the secret realm.
Before he did, he sent a message to Ji Suying.
“Don’t worry about the River and Mountain Seal. If you want to kill, go ahead, but I also need you to do me a favor!”
Ji Suying responded through their minds, “What is it?”
The Third Prince’s expression was calm. “Anyone local to the Cave Heaven entering the secret realm, help me take them out!”
Ji Suying was momentarily stunned but then nodded. “No problem!”
With her agreement, the Third Prince stood up.
He stepped forward, and with a thundering sound, divine power descended from the heavens, landing directly on Sun and Moon Mountain.
Following that, everyone watched as Sun and Moon Mountain slowly split in two.
As the separation reached a certain point, they discovered that beneath the mountain lay a shimmering palace.
It looked like an immortal palace, as if painted on a scroll—so enchanting it drew people in.
Even the rich spiritual energy spouting from it felt invigorating, making anyone feel their cultivation loosen, even if sealed.
“Boom boom boom… crack!”
Once the mountain stopped moving, everyone understood.
The Sun and Moon Secret Realm was now fully open.
“Boom…”
At that moment, the observing cultivators couldn’t wait any longer.
They all surged toward the immortal palace.
The frenzy stemmed from the fact that there were medicinal herbs inside, which would greatly benefit those at the Body Integration stage and even the Great Completion stage—there were plenty to go around!
“Bang~”
Just then, Ji Suying suddenly sprang into action, launching herself like a sword.
Her target? The River and Mountain Seal atop the main hall.
However, before she could reach the main hall, a group of black-clothed men charged at her.
“Humph, looking to die!”
Ji Suying wasted no time drawing her sword.
A flash of sword light instantly swept across, sending the black-clothed men plummeting from the sky like dead locusts.
“Three Thousand Phoenix Feathers!”
Right now, Ji Suying was going all out, choosing to unleash chaos.
The so-called Three Thousand Phoenix Feathers meant thrice thousands of sword qi, all ablaze, dragging behind them like the feathers of a phoenix.
It looked amazing, but it was terrifying too.
Because the three thousand sword qi she controlled wove together in space to form a cage.
Within that cage, the sword qi consumed everything.
The black-clothed men arrived swiftly and died just as fast.
The rate of death was almost on par with those twenty thousand people who got tossed into the cauldron back in the day!
However, among the black-clothed men, there were also skilled fighters.
A massive ice hammer came crashing down toward Ji Suying.
She reacted lightning-fast.
With a swift strike of her sword, the hammer was cleaved in two.
But before she could catch her breath, another black-clothed man, towering nearly three meters tall and wielding a huge chopping knife, charged at her.
Clang!
Ji Suying blocked with one hand while her other crashed down onto the man’s chest.
His chest caved in, and he spat out blood as he flew backward.
Ji Suying didn’t linger to see his fate; instead, she coldly licked her lips, gazing at the remaining black-clothed men still coming for her.
“Humph, a bunch of ants!”
With that, her aura erupted, unleashing a terrifying domain that enveloped the black-clothed men.
Then Ji Suying struck once more.
Crack~
Space distorted.
Anyone caught within that domain was instantly torn apart by the misaligned space.
“O my giddy aunt!”
Liu Shunyi watched, his scalp tingling.
This woman was ruthless when she got into a fight.
But Liu Shunyi wasn’t idle himself.
Those souls and blood? They must not go to waste.
With more people from the Hall of Yama coming, Liu Shunyi had to prepare for the future.
While refining blood pills, he turned to Zhao Gou. “Don’t fully heal them, just keep them half-dead, enough to drain their blood!”
Zhao Gou nodded with a kind smile.
But those on the ground convulsing looked at the two with bloodshot eyes.
Initially thinking they had a friendly encounter, they soon realized these two were anything but human.
“I’m dying here, and you bring me back half-dead? To drain my blood and soul? What kind of lunatics are you guys?”
Sure! You guys are scarier than the demons we think we feared!
In fact, when the demons invaded, they merely ate you up quickly.
But you two are making it feel worse than death!
Some were so desperate they stabbed themselves in the heart.
But alas, it was fruitless.
Zhao Gou’s light healed those who were supposed to be dead, keeping them alive but immobile.
“Nima~”
Watching another wave of black-clothed men rush toward Ji Suying, someone shouted.
“Don’t kill Ji Suying yet! First, let’s take these two out!”
Liu Shunyi: “!!”
“Damn it!”
Liu Shunyi slapped that guy across the mouth.
Then he turned to Zhao Gou. “Stop healing! We gotta run!”
With that, Liu Shunyi finished draining the blood and souls from those near him before dashing toward the immortal palace.
The fresh black-clothed men stared in shock at the serene corpses of their companions.
How horrifying was that?
“I can’t believe we’ve got to eliminate those two first!”
A portion of the black-clothed men split off and charged after Liu Shunyi and Zhao Gou.
There was no choice; their comrades had died in such a bizarre manner.
Zhao Gou looked back at the crowd of black-clothed men chasing them, his heart dropping.
“Useless trash! Is this what you call controllable?”
Liu Shunyi remained unflappable.
At that moment, the glow from his Dao Golden Scroll, the Seven Earthly Demons, was intensifying, on the verge of turning golden.
Liu Shunyi smiled.
“Don’t worry. Come on, today I’m going to blow that ‘saving lives and healing the injured’ reputation right into the sky!”
Seeing the black-clothed men closing in, Liu Shunyi halted abruptly.
“Saving lives!”
He shouted.
Instinctively, Zhao Gou began to heal the nearest person.
Meanwhile, Liu Shunyi burned his own essence and soul to concoct pills.
The scene bewildered the black-clothed men.
Then, the group started twitching madly.
“Hurry, heal them!”
Zhao Gou suddenly shouted, his expression incredibly excited.
Liu Shunyi had no choice but to amplify his efforts.
The result? The twitching crowd resembled zombies flailing erratically on the ground.
