Battle Through the Heavens, Reborn as Xiao Yan's Sister

Mountain of the Dead!

This mountain range is located in the northwest region of Zhongzhou, a perilous land filled with death and despair.

Legend has it that this place was once an ancient battlefield in Zhongzhou, where many great battles took place and countless lives were lost. The sea of ​​corpses still lies buried beneath the soil of the mountains.

Because of the extremely dense natural cold air here, the cold mist shrouds the depths of the mountains all year round. The soul's perception is greatly affected by this cold mist, and some people with insufficient cultivation may be trapped and die in these mountains.

However, none of these were problems for Xiao Yue. With a flash, she darted through the mountains like a ghost, rushing towards the black palace.

According to the information provided by Danta, the Soul Palace is hiding a branch in Zhongzhou ahead!

Although the Soul Palace's lair is extremely mysterious on the continent, the Pill Tower, as their old rival, naturally also has some information about the Soul Palace's secondary lairs!

The Soul Hall has about twenty-four important branch halls in the Central Continent. These branch halls are extremely secretive, and their hall masters and deputy hall masters are generally Soul Hall Venerable level experts with a cultivation level of seven stars or above. The Soul Hall is called the Earthly Fiend Hall. After years of exploration by the Pill Tower, half of the specific locations of the Earthly Fiend Hall have been determined!

In addition, there are three Heavenly Gang Palaces, one of which is the headquarters of the Soul Palace. As for these three Heavenly Gang Palaces, the Pill Tower has not been able to find their exact locations over the years.

of course,

Xiao Yue wouldn't be foolish enough to go looking for the three most difficult Heavenly Gang Palaces. Of course, she would pick on the softest persimmon. The twenty-four Earthly Fiend Palaces were her target!
"Seventh Divine Restriction, open!"

As the cold words fell,
Xiao Yue's long, flowing silver hair suddenly grew to more than ten feet, dancing wildly in the air. The crimson light in her blood-red eyes intensified, and she reached out into the void.

Suddenly,

Countless golden shackles appeared out of thin air between heaven and earth, and finally slowly condensed in her hand into an incomparably sharp golden spear!

"Buzz!"

The moment the golden spear appeared, the surrounding space seemed to freeze.

Ahead lay an extremely high and steep slope, at the end of which was a vast valley surrounded by mountains. Inside the valley, a colossal black palace, hundreds of feet in size, resembled a crouching, primordial beast, exuding a chilling and terrifying aura in its gloom.

Deep within the black palace lay a vast hall, where dozens of towering black stone pillars, each hundreds of feet tall, stood majestically. Countless eerie runes covered the pillars, and jet-black chains extended from them.

The chains intersected and outlined the sky above the square, and at the end of these chains floated faint orbs of light, within which were souls with pained expressions and ethereal bodies.

In the center of this plaza was a platform about ten zhang (approximately 33 meters) above the ground. Around the platform stood four enormous stone pillars, and four thick, black chains, like pythons, snaked downwards.
"It's still the same as always."

The size and style of this branch hall are similar to those in the Northwest Continent!
Without another word, she reached out and flicked her wrist, her golden lightning spear piercing downwards, directly tearing open the dome of the hundreds-of-feet-tall black palace below!
This wasn't the first time Xiao Yue had done this back in the Northwest Continent!
That massive black palace, every brick and tile contained the power of an ancient magic array, and its killing aura was crisscrossing. Even a Soul Palace Venerable with profound cultivation would inevitably be killed on the spot if he stepped in.

However, under Xiao Yue's seemingly casual attack, it was as fragile as paper, utterly powerless to resist. Even the magic arrays personally set up by the many Heavenly Venerables of the Soul Palace could not escape, and were all reduced to ashes.

"Who are you, daring to trespass here and cause trouble?!" With a furious shout, more than a dozen figures of Soul Palace Venerables flew into the sky like a raging wave.

"Bring out Demon Rain! Today is his death day!"

Xiao Yue's voice was cold and ruthless, each word striking everyone's hearts like a heavy hammer.

"Do you think you can just see the Nine Heavens Venerables as you please? You arrogant fool, you dare to invade my Soul Palace! You're courting death!" one of the low-ranking Venerables of the Soul Palace said angrily.

The remaining ordinary Venerables and Elders of the Soul Palace also stood before the black giant hall, their killing intent palpable, as if they wanted to tear Xiao Yue to pieces.

However, faced with this overwhelming killing intent, Xiao Yue merely glanced at them coldly, and the golden spear in her hand once again shone with dazzling lightning.

"Pfft!"

The spear tip moved like lightning, instantly piercing the chest of a Soul Palace Venerable and shattering his body into a pile of blood and gore.

This happened so fast that many people hadn't even had time to react before witnessing the shocking scene.

Amidst the rising blood mist, Xiao Yue's figure appeared like the Grim Reaper, inspiring awe in all who beheld her.

"If the Nine Heavens Venerable does not show himself, I will raze all the Earthly Fiend Halls of the Soul Palace in the Central Continent to the ground, leaving not a single one alive!" Xiao Yue's voice was as cold as ice, and the golden spear in her hand pointed towards the sky.

"Insanity!"

One of the elders from the Soul Hall snorted coldly, his natal soul lock beneath his black robe pointing directly at Xiao Yue.

However, Xiao Yue reacted with lightning speed. The spear in her hand seemed to have a spirit, and it flew out of her hand on its own, turning into a streak of black light that instantly pierced the man's brow.

"boom!"

With a muffled roar, the Soul Palace Venerable's body was impaled alive on the plaque of the giant palace by a spear, the sight of blood everywhere was shocking!

At this moment, the entire area in front of the black palace was silent. All eyes were focused on the golden spear shaft encircled by blood-red lightning, its cold luster seemingly telling a different kind of cruelty.

Strands of blood dripped from the plaque of the Earthly Fiend Hall onto the ground, making a soft sound that weighed heavily on the hearts of the Soul Hall envoys like a boulder.

"What are you standing there for? Attack together! Unleash the Soul Locks!"

One of the Soul Hall elders, who seemed to hold a high position, hovered in the sky. Upon seeing this, he immediately roared, knowing that only by fighting to the death could they have a chance of survival.

However, their attacks were easily neutralized by Xiao Yue, who moved like a ghost among the Venerables of the Hall of Souls. Each move she made was accompanied by splattering blood and the loss of life.

Countless centipede-like, ferocious chain scythes, like stars in the dark night, gleamed with a chilling light, tearing through the sky and ripping the clouds in the heavens. Wherever they passed, the world changed color, converging into an unstoppable torrent. Several Soul Palace Venerables unleashed their natal soul chains, their power was considerable, carrying an aura of world destruction!
However, facing this overwhelming offensive, Xiao Yue took only one light step, and the power of stars and lightning surged, turning into invisible ripples that instantly devoured the Soul Hall elders at the forefront. Their bodies exploded in the violent earth energy, turning into a rain of blood, and their deaths were extremely gruesome!

"Humph!"

With a cold snort, Xiao Yue activated the divine restriction and stood in the void. Her silver hair fluttered in the wind, and her scarlet eyes made her look like a demon lord who had emerged from the abyss. Below, the Soul Palace was left only with desolation and silence.

After killing the man, Xiao Yue did not linger but continued on to the next location!
The commotion in the Lost Soul Mountains couldn't be kept secret any longer. The news spread like wildfire, rapidly reaching every corner of the continent through various spatial black hole tunnels, shocking all the major powers. Xiao Yue showed no sign of stopping, single-handedly storming into one of the Soul Palace's strongholds and beginning another round of slaughter, ruthlessly wiping out its inhabitants!

She swept through almost every stronghold of the Soul Palace in the Central Plains, eliminating them one by one. As for the Soul Palace Venerables who came out to block her way, she naturally wiped them out completely!

On this very day, the news spread rapidly to all corners of the land, and the Central Plains were thrown into turmoil! Never before had a day been so chaotic, with discussions everywhere!

The brutal killings continue!

It wasn't just Xiao Yue acting alone; Little Fairy Doctor, Venerable Wind, Xiao Yan, and others, along with some powerful Dou Zun experts from the Soul Court who came from the Northwest Continent, were also launching a secret raid on the Soul Palace!
In almost a day and a night, the Soul Suppressing Court came from the Northwest Continent and destroyed the five Earthly Fiend Halls of the Soul Palace in the Central State, as well as hundreds of important hideouts of all sizes!
With the nine Heavenly Venerables of the Soul Palace not appearing, Xiao Yue has almost no rivals!

……

A great uproar swept across the Central Continent, with discussions surging like a tidal wave, almost dispelling some of the gloom in the sky.

"They've gone mad! They've really gone mad! Is the Soul Suppressing Court going to war with the Soul Palace?!" In the streets and alleys, in teahouses and taverns, everyone was talking about this sudden turn of events.

People's eyes held both shock and a hint of unbelievable fervor, as if this sudden storm was quietly changing the landscape of the Central Continent.

"Does the Soul Suppressing Court have such courage and strength to challenge such a behemoth as the Soul Palace alone?" An old man held a teacup, seemingly curious.

“Their name is Zhenhunting, which means they’re going against the Soul Palace!” A young man next to him chimed in, his tone a mix of admiration and apprehension.

What further heightened tensions in the Central Continent was the news that the ancient secret realm was about to open. This legendary realm was said to contain countless treasures and inheritances, enough to drive any power mad.

However, the turmoil within the Soul Palace and the powerful rise of the Northwest Continent have undoubtedly added some uncertainty to the upcoming battle for the secret realm.

However, the Soul Palace, the instigator of all this, has remained surprisingly silent.

The dark force that had stood in Zhongzhou for a thousand years now seemed to be shrouded in an invisible shadow, appearing exceptionally silent.

There was much speculation. Some believed that the Soul Palace was secretly gathering its forces, preparing to deliver a fatal blow to Xiao Yue and the others; others believed that the Soul Palace was intimidated by Xiao Yue's strength and dared not make any rash moves for the time being.

But whatever the truth may be, the winds of change have quietly shifted across the Central Continent. Various forces are beginning to stir, some choosing to wait and see, while others are secretly seeking opportunities to gain a share of the spoils in this storm.

Fenglei Pavilion
This force, which once had an irreconcilable feud with Xiao Yue, was now in an uproar. The Pavilion Master, Venerable Feng, frowned, staring into the distance, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

Ice Valley, a sect in Zhongzhou renowned for its power of ice, also felt unprecedented pressure. Its patriarch sat on the ice throne, surrounded by bone-chilling cold, his face so gloomy it seemed water could drip from it.

Meanwhile, the Tianming Sect, located far in the western part of Zhongzhou, a sect known for its ruthlessness and viciousness, did not miss this opportunity. In response, the sect leader, Tianming Laoyao, let out a cold and disdainful laugh.

……

Meanwhile, things were not peaceful inside the Soul Palace.

Inside a colossal hall forged from pitch-black iron, the atmosphere was oppressive and suffocating. The flickering candlelight illuminated the somber and uncertain faces of several celestial venerables. They sat around a round table carved from the bones of an unknown beast, their gazes unanimously focused on the one in the center, known as the "Nine Celestial Venerables," Mo Yu.

Mo Yu, dressed in a black robe, had a cold and stern face, as if sculpted from ten thousand years of ice. Even in this moment of being the target of everyone's attacks, his eyes remained deep and calm, without the slightest sign of panic.

In that deep and unfathomable underground palace, the nine Heavenly Venerable chairs were like nine insurmountable mountains, each emanating a faint black aura, and were filled with seven Heavenly Venerables with solemn expressions.

Today, the Heavenly Hall is unusually filled with seven Heavenly Venerables. The flickering candlelight illuminates their faces, some cold and others sinister, and the air is thick with a sense of oppression.

The thrones of the First and Second Heavenly Venerables remained empty, as if they were two taboos that no one dared to touch easily. They were still in seclusion, oblivious to all the changes in the outside world.

Meanwhile, the Nine Heavens Venerable Demon Rain, dressed in black robes with a cold and stern face, sat in his seat, his eyes flashing with an unusual light.

"Ninth Brother, how could a mere Xiao Yue make you so disheveled? Last time, you swore that she would die in the Starfield." The Fourth Heavenly Venerable sneered, his voice filled with obvious disdain.

"Fourth Brother is absolutely right. How could a mere outsider shake the foundation of my Soul Palace?" the Fifth Heavenly Venerable echoed.

Upon hearing this, the Nine Heavens Venerable Demon Rain smiled faintly, but a hint of chill was hidden within that smile.

"I advise you all not to underestimate Xiao Yue." Mo Yu spoke slowly, her voice steady and powerful. "She was able to eliminate several of my Soul Palace's branch halls in a short period of time. Her methods and strength are far beyond those of ordinary people."

"Ninth Brother, are you boosting the morale of others while diminishing your own?" The Sixth Heavenly Venerable frowned, clearly quite dissatisfied with Mo Yu's attitude.

"No."

Mo Yu shook his head slightly, his gaze sharp. "I just hope that you can take your opponents seriously. After all, any underestimation could become a fatal weakness."

"Moreover, the Soul Suppressing Court has now clearly allied with the Pill Tower, and we must be wary of this force."

"Hmph, what can a mere Soul Suppressing Court do?" The Four Heavenly Venerables sneered disdainfully. "How could a few ants possibly shake the foundation of my Soul Palace?"

"enough…"

At this moment, the black-robed man on the third black skull chair interrupted the pointless argument with a hoarse voice.

Upon hearing him speak, the hall fell silent instantly. The other Heavenly Venerables obediently shut their mouths, and even Mo Yu, who was about to speak, did not argue further. He simply sat there quietly, his eyes revealing an indescribable calmness.

With the Hall Master, Deputy Hall Master, Great Celestial Venerable, Second Celestial Venerable, and others in seclusion, the Third Celestial Venerable is now the sole person in charge of the Soul Hall!
"Xiao Yue is nothing but a clown. When I return from the ancient secret realm, it will be the time of their destruction."

"Ninth Brother, before that, I'll give you one last chance. If you don't handle this well, hehe..." As the cold words fell, the man turned into a cloud of black mist and disappeared quietly.

Mo Yu remained silent in response to his words, only able to bow his head and accept the order, not daring to say anything more... Unlike the other Heavenly Venerables present, Mo Yu dared to contradict them, but he dared not act rashly towards this one!

After all, this person is a demigod!
