Chapter 1156 Hope
Chu Zhiyuan closed his eyes.

The third clone stopped flying and landed on a mountaintop, facing the gentle breeze and looking at the lush mountains in the distance.

The Evil Lord has been modified; his body is like crystal, and his lightness skill is incredibly fast.

After a night of driving, they were already more than a hundred miles away from the capital.

Chu Zhiyuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

I originally thought that this time, when I tried to use the Reincarnation Marriage Technique, there would be some twists and turns, and I might not even succeed.

I never expected it to be so easy and smooth, beyond my wildest imagination.

He already understood that this was clearly something the evil lord had done on purpose.

This was originally a clone that the Evil Lord had prepared for himself, but he intercepted it one step ahead of time.

This body originated from an evil sect and can no longer be converted to the righteous path; it is destined not to exist for long.

Even though he knew from the memories of this body that he had grown up in a mountain since childhood and had almost never come down from the mountain.

He spent all his time practicing and praying devoutly before the statue of the deity.

But Chu Zhiyuan knew that this clone was destined not to survive and could not be spared just because it had not been tainted with his own essence blood.

He wanted to achieve greater results through this clone within the extremely limited time available.

After speeding for 100 kilometers, this clone was already panting heavily.

Their own purity and flawlessness do not preclude them from cultivating to a higher level.

For those preparing to receive the descending body, the higher their cultivation level, the less pure they become, leaving behind more solid and unshakeable marks.

Chu Zhiyuan observed the situation for a while before turning his gaze towards the imperial city.

Ding Huanchun arrived gracefully with a group of experts.

Chu Zhiyuan didn't approach; he just watched from a distance as Ding Huanchun explained things to them.

This group of experts possessed extraordinary cultivation; two ninth-level Venerables led eight seventh-level Venerables, surrounding the two elders.

The two elderly men were dressed in purple robes, with solemn expressions and an imposing presence.

One old man was tall and strong, while the other was thin and short.

The tall, burly old man suddenly strode up to the statue, glanced at it, and said coldly, "Giant Spirit Sect!"

He turned to look at the gaunt old man: "Senior brother, it is the Evil Lord of the Giant Spirit Sect."

"The Giant Spirit Evil Lord?" The gaunt old man frowned. "That's something he's capable of doing!"

Chu Zhiyuan was very curious about the identities of the two old men.

I originally thought he was a soldier, Ding Huanchun's superior.

Now, it appears to be two offerings.

It's just unclear whether it was a donation from the military or from other government departments.

Or perhaps they were offerings to the imperial palace.

Ding Huanchun had already obediently shut his mouth. Surrounded by experts, only the two old men were speaking.

The burly, tall old man said in a deep voice, "The Giant Spirit Evil Lord is the most extreme, but his actions are completely different from his evil arts."

"Hmm." The thin, short old man said in a deep voice, "This Giant Spirit Evil Lord always acts meticulously and will not act rashly. He will only make a final attack after long-term preparation... Once he starts, he can usually succeed."

The burly, tall old man turned to look at Chu Zhiyuan and took a step forward.

His movements were incredibly fast, as if he could shrink the distance to an inch, covering dozens of meters in a single step.

He arrived before Chu Zhiyuan with a gust of wind, clasped his hands in a fist salute, and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Chu?"

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and clasped his hands in greeting: "Greetings, senior. My name is Chu Zhiyuan."

"Truly worthy of being a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect." A smile spread across the burly old man's lion-nosed, tiger-eyed face.

Ding Huanchun followed and said with a smile, "Mr. Chu, this is Mr. Su Lingxuan, a retainer of the General's Mansion."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "I wonder what guidance Senior Su has for me?"

“Mr. Chu, these guys from the Giant Spirit Sect are not to be trifled with, and even less likely to be killed.”

"Yes, it took some effort."

"Mr. Chu, what methods did you use?"

"I'd call it a sneak attack," Chu Zhiyuan chuckled. "That's not something I can say to anyone."

He naturally revealed his reluctance to elaborate. This was understandable, given that it involved his trump card and the sect's methods.

Su Lingxuan raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "As expected of a master from the Heavenly Sword Sect."

Chu Zhiyuan laughed and said, "These demons aren't as hard to kill as I imagined. They didn't react much to my approach, probably because they didn't expect it."

"Oh—?" Su Lingxuan asked in surprise, "They didn't react much?"

Chu Zhiyuan nodded slowly.

"Are they praying?" Su Lingxuan said, "Kneeling and praying to the statue of the Evil Lord."

Chu Zhiyuan said, "I only made my move after they finished praying, so as not to disturb the power of the Evil Lord."

“That’s right, that’s exactly how it should be!” Su Lingxuan quickly praised, “Mr. Chu, although you are young, you are very experienced. This approach is correct.”

Chu Zhiyuan said, "My intuition tells me that's the right thing to do, so I didn't do anything rash while they were praying."

“If you make a move at that time, it will alert the Evil Lord’s power, which will cause immense trouble.” Su Lingxuan shook his head. “The Evil Lord’s power is too wicked and impossible to guard against.”

Chu Zhiyuan laughed and said, "It seems I escaped a calamity; I'm extremely lucky."

"Exactly!" Su Lingxuan nodded solemnly: "Moreover, Mr. Chu, you have done a great service by eliminating them in time and stopping the Giant Spirit Evil Lord's conspiracy. The imperial court will surely reward you handsomely!"

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "I wish I could exterminate all the evil spirits in the world... Mr. Su, if we want to exterminate evil spirits, we should start with the Evil Lord, right?"

This is the case with the Lesser Outer Heaven.

Through his own efforts, and with the cooperation of the imperial court, he destroyed the evil sect of Xiaotianwaitian.

Thus, he gained the power of incarnation.

His previous successes gave him great confidence.

Having arrived here, their cultivation levels are higher and their methods are more numerous. If the four major sects of the Heavenly Sword Sect are also present, along with the imperial court, it is not impossible for them to wipe out all the evil sects in the world.

Although Biyuan Heaven is much larger and more powerful than Xiaotianwaitian.

He still has full confidence.

“Evil Lords…” Su Lingxuan frowned, shook his head and sighed, “Mr. Chu, you are a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect, so you naturally understand these Evil Lords. They are extraterrestrial demons, how could we possibly destroy them?”

Chu Zhiyuan said, "They must have some leverage to invade our Biyuan Heaven. How could they have entered without any support?"

Fan Wei shook his head: "As long as people's greed burns, these evil lords cannot be destroyed. In fact, it is still people's greed that is the root cause."

Chu Zhiyuan said, "These statues are the vessels through which they project their power, aren't they? Without them, it would be difficult for the Evil Lord to cause trouble, wouldn't it?"

"Yes, but these statues are sturdy and indestructible."

Chu Zhiyuan said, "I have mastered a method for subduing demons, which can destroy these statues."

As he spoke, he leaped up, gracefully skimming over the treetops, and landed in front of the statue in the center of the crowd.

Su Lingxuan also stepped forward and came to the statue, watching him wield the Shadowless Divine Sword and make a light, effortless slash.

A thin line appears between the statue's eyebrows, down to its mouth, nose, and navel.

The statue then began to crack, which quickly spread into countless fissures.

Golden light shimmered at these cracks.

Finally, with a muffled "bang," it turned into a pile of rubble.

Chu Zhiyuan sheathed his sword and stood looking at Su Lingxuan.

Su Lingxuan's tiger eyes widened as he glared at Chu Zhiyuan, then looked at the pile of rubble.

The short old man stepped forward, squatted down, and gently picked up a small pebble.

He squeezed it hard, then tossed it to Su Lingxuan, whose eyes were wide open. He clapped his hands and solemnly said, "Mr. Chu, if we destroy all the statues of the evil sects in the world, it is indeed possible to destroy all the evil sects in the world and ultimately destroy all evil demons!"

Seeing Chu Zhiyuan's methods, he remained calm, but his heart was filled with excitement.

He saw the possibility of realizing his long-cherished wish.

To exterminate all evil spirits and eradicate all heretical sects was a vow he made since childhood. However, he later discovered that it was just a delusion. The older he got, the more impossible it seemed, and he gradually despaired.

Seeing that Chu Zhiyuan was able to destroy the statue, I suddenly felt a glimmer of hope.

The statues of the Evil Lord are the vessels through which the Evil Lord from beyond the heavens cast his power; without them, it would be difficult for the Evil Lord to cast his power.

Destroying the statue cuts off the demons' greatest source of power, making it much easier to wipe them out.

In that case, Chu Zhiyuan is the most important person and the greatest hope for eradicating evil!
