Terran Guardian - Chapter 3845

Chapter 3821 Such a heavy aura of killing intent

! The Enlightenment Purple Lotus!

This kind of thing is an irresistible temptation for any half-saint.

If one could obtain it,

advancing further in one’s cultivation would not be a problem.

In the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, there are many powerful beings. Once the Enlightenment Purple Lotus appears, the possibility of ordinary cultivators vying for it is extremely slim.

But it’s different in the Ancient Immortal Realm.

Not everyone wants to step into this Heavenly Dao Battlefield.

After all, this place is dangerous, and even half-saints may perish.

Not only that,

most cultivators leave the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm in advance to avoid being chosen by the Heavenly Dao and escape into chaos to avoid calamity.

As a result,

the number of powerful beings in the Ancient Battlefield is naturally much smaller than in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.

Now that he has learned about the Enlightenment Purple Lotus, it is hard for Wu Jue not to be tempted.

As for that Seven Profound Dao Lord, to be honest, although he is somewhat wary, he is not in a position of fear. He

is just a Longevity Half-Saint!

He himself is also at that level.

If the opponent’s strength is at the level of a top-tier half-saint, then it’s impossible for them to stay in a small place like Taiyuan Prefecture .

In Wu Jue’s view, the opponent is indeed a half-saint, but their strength is definitely not too great. With the current strength of the Immortal Qin Dynasty, suppressing such a half-saint should not be a problem.

Of course,

nothing is absolute.

But if you want to seize an opportunity, how can you not take any risks?

Thinking of this,

a cold glint flashed in Wu Jue’s eyes, and he immediately said in a deep voice: “Issue my decree to send troops to Taiyuan Prefecture and crush the Seven Profound Dao Sect!”

“We obey!”

…

The Immortal Qin Dynasty’s actions were significant. When Wu Jue sent troops to Taiyuan Prefecture, the news had already spread.

For a time

, all the forces in the Star Luo Immortal Domain turned their attention to the Immortal Qin Dynasty, secretly filled with doubt and uncertainty.

“What is the purpose of the Immortal Qin Dynasty’s large-scale actions?”

“Taiyuan Prefecture… that’s just an ordinary territory in the Star Luo Immortal Domain. How could it be worth the Immortal Qin Dynasty’s great mobilization!”

There are no secrets that stay hidden forever. When the Immortal Qin Dynasty launched its attack, its purpose was only slightly investigated, and other forces were already aware of it.

But that’s precisely why other forces were surprised.

After all,

Taiyuan Prefecture, being an ordinary prefecture, has limited resources. Normally, it wouldn’t warrant such a large-scale action from the Immortal Qin Dynasty.

But when news spread that 100,000 Zhen Tian soldiers of the Immortal Qin Dynasty had perished in Taiyuan Prefecture, and that the Enlightenment Purple Lotus had been born, other forces suddenly understood.

“The Enlightenment Purple Lotus… no wonder the Immortal Qin Dynasty is taking such action. It’s probably a pretext to avenge the 100,000 Zhen Tian soldiers, but rather to seize the Enlightenment Purple Lotus!”

“How could such a treasure fall into the hands of the Immortal Qin Dynasty!”

Many powerful figures were secretly tempted.

The Enlightenment Purple Lotus holds immense appeal for those who aspire to immortality and are half-saints, and even greater allure for immortal emperors.

A tenth-tier heavenly treasure, if an immortal emperor were to obtain it, they might be able to leap into the half-saint realm in the next great calamity.

Therefore,

upon learning of the emergence of such a treasure in Taiyuan Prefecture, many forces were restless.

Not only the local forces of the Star Luo Immortal Domain, but even forces from other outer domains turned their attention to Taiyuan Prefecture upon hearing the news.

However,

just as all forces were about to converge on Taiyuan Prefecture, the heavens trembled, and supreme starlight descended from the nine heavens. The terrifying power of its Daoist aura caused all living beings to gasp in shock.

This vast phenomenon was clearly audible throughout almost half of the Star Luo Immortal Domain, and even some neighboring immortal domains could sense the fluctuations in its aura.

Simultaneously

, within this phenomenon, a terrifying killing intent surged forth.

Even those who had reached the pinnacle of immortality felt an instinctive fear at that killing intent.

Ancient beings cast their gazes, their hearts filled with shock.

“Nine Heavens Starlight!”

“That’s the power of the forbidden zone of the ancient Immortal Realm!!”

“Such a murderous aura must indicate the birth of a supreme treasure. This thing must never fall into the hands of others—”

At this moment, the Enlightenment Purple Lotus and the Taiyuan Mansion were all forgotten by these forces. To them, nothing was more important than this supreme treasure.

Although they didn’t know what level of treasure had appeared, just observing the murderous aura that seemed capable of slaughtering billions of lives was enough to demonstrate the extraordinary nature of this supreme treasure.

Obtaining such a treasure would definitely greatly increase their strength.

In comparison, while

the Enlightenment Purple Lotus was important, it couldn’t compare to this top-tier treasure.

After all—

the Enlightenment Purple Lotus was only of the tenth rank, but judging from the current phenomena, the quality of this treasure was definitely not simple.

In an instant,

all forces headed towards the direction of the immortal light. “

…

Such a heavy aura of killing intent!”

Inside the Seven Profound Dao Sect, Shen Changqing seemed to sense something as well, looking into the depths of the void, his brows furrowing slightly.

Just then,

the Demon God Dao Mirror trembled.

Shen Changqing’s divine sense entered the Dao Mirror, and a message appeared.

After a long while, a cold smile curled at the corner of his lips.

“The Immortal Qin Dynasty!”

This message was spread by the acquired demon gods who were lying in wait in other parts of the Star Luo Immortal Domain, stating that the Immortal Qin Dynasty had mobilized in large numbers, heading straight for Taiyuan Prefecture .

Shen Changqing naturally understood that the Immortal Qin Dynasty’s target was the Seven Profound Dao Sect.

Not long ago, some cultivators from the Immortal Qin Dynasty had attempted to attack the Seven Profound Dao Sect, only to be easily wiped out by Shen Changqing.

Moreover,

according to the soul-searching results,

Shen Changqing also understood that the leading expert was a Heavenly Captain in the Immortal Qin Dynasty’s Heavenly Suppression Army, leading 100,000 Heavenly Suppression Army soldiers, whose strength was quite formidable.

Now that the 100,000-strong Zhen Tian Army has been wiped out and a Tianwei has fallen, the Immortal Qin Dynasty will certainly not let this go.

Shen Changqing also has some understanding of this force.

The Immortal Qin Dynasty, a top-tier power in the Xuandu Immortal Realm, boasts more than one immortal being residing within its ranks, making its strength not to be underestimated.

However,

according to Shen Changqing,

while the Immortal Qin Dynasty’s deployment of troops to the Star Luo Immortal Realm is unknown in terms of the number of powerful figures secretly involved, the publicly acknowledged leader is

General Zhen Tian, a half-saint who attained immortality 30 billion years ago.

Shen Changqing has a rough estimate of General Zhen Tian’s strength.

After all,

half-saints undergo the Five Decays of Heaven and Man once

every 10 billion years. Given that he attained enlightenment 30 billion years ago, his cultivation level is likely at the Third Tribulation level.

Such strength is not weak, but that’s about it.

…

Several days later,

a terrifying killing intent swept in like a tidal wave, causing the wind and clouds to change color, and the heavens were tinged with a faint blood-red hue, as if paved with the blood of countless living beings.

That terrifyingly murderous aura shook the minds of many cultivators in the Taiyuan Prefecture.

At the same time…

Inside the Seven Profound Dao Sect.

Shen Changqing looked out into the void, his expression indifferent: “They’ve arrived!”

In his sight, hundreds of immortal ships traversed the void, each bearing a banner with auspicious beasts drawn with mysterious patterns—the symbol of the Immortal Qin Dynasty.

Several days had passed.

The Immortal Qin Dynasty’s army had crossed half of the Star Luo Immortal Domain.

The moment the aura of the Immortal Qin Dynasty’s cultivators was detected, the Seven Profound Divine Tower had already completely absorbed it.

“Three Half-Saints!”

“One at the Third Tribulation level, two at the First Tribulation level!”

Shen Changqing felt the aura absorbed by the Seven Profound Divine Tower, his expression remaining largely unchanged.

Three Half-Saints!

Such power was already considerable for a powerful longevity force.

Moreover,

this wasn’t even the entirety of the Immortal Qin Dynasty’s strength.

Then,

Shen Changqing’s figure disappeared from the Cangyun Immortal Mansion.

On the other side.

On an immortal ship.

Wu Jue stood with his hands behind his back, expressionless as he surveyed the vast mountains and seas below.

“How much longer until we arrive?”

he asked slowly, and a cultivator behind him respectfully replied,

“Reporting to Your Excellency, the Cangwu Mountains are just ahead, and the Seven Profound Dao Sect is located there!”

Upon hearing this,

Wu Jue gazed ahead, where ancient mountains stretched across the sky and earth, seemingly no different from the mountains and seas of other places.

“Pass down the order: leave no one alive from the Seven Profound Dao Sect. After destroying the Seven Profound Dao Sect, then slaughter all the cultivators from Taiyuan Prefecture. Such walking Heavenly Dao opportunities are too good for us to pass up; otherwise, they will only benefit other cultivators!”

His tone was completely unwavering, as if the billions of cultivators from Taiyuan Prefecture were ants that he could crush with a flick of his wrist.

Hearing this,

the other cultivators perked up.

“Yes!”

There were many cultivators from Taiyuan Prefecture. If they could destroy Taiyuan Prefecture, the Heavenly Dao opportunities they could obtain would be considerable. If they accumulated enough of these Heavenly Dao opportunities, they would have a chance to receive blessings from the Heavenly Dao when they left this ancient immortal realm.

There was one more thing.

Having accumulated enough Heavenly Dao blessings, the Xuandu Immortal Realm might have a chance to advance further.

If its ranking improved, the benefits would be even greater.

As for destroying Taiyuan Prefecture and slaughtering numerous cultivators, it was utterly insignificant to them.

The Heavenly Dao Battlefield was primarily about killing.

Just as Wu Jue had said, even if they didn’t act, other forces, if they had the strength to destroy Taiyuan Prefecture, would certainly not show mercy.

Rather than handing over these Heavenly Dao blessings to other forces, why not take them for themselves?

This

would not only benefit themselves but also the entire Xuandu Immortal Realm.

As the group talked, the immortal boat traversed the void, about to enter the Cangwu Mountain Range, when a cold voice resounded through the void.

“Where the Seven Profound Dao Sect is located, what force dares to fly through the air?!”

The words had barely left

his lips when the void collapsed, and the twelve directions of the heavens and universes pressed down. The overwhelming power caused Wu Jue’s previously indifferent expression to suddenly change.

“Insolence!!!”

he roared, instantly summoning a black divine spear. The power of a Third Tribulation Half-Saint erupted forth, slamming into the twelve universes.

Boom—

the moment the forces collided, an overwhelming force surged forth, causing the black spear to groan in agony. The tiger’s mouth gripping the spear cracked, and Wu Jue was violently thrown back.

In the instant he retreated, the remaining force pressed down.

All the immortal ships and warships plummeted from the void like dumplings being dropped into a pot. Some ships didn’t even fully land before being crushed by the force, and the cultivators inside perished without even a scream.
