The head master has a new female apprentice

Chapter 307 I, Zhou Qing, am a member of the Taiqing Sect, not a deserter! (6k)

At this moment, Liu Xuanfeng's face was as pale as paper, but his fighting spirit was even stronger: "All of you deserve to die!"

Behind the giant claw, a skull the size of a house, now only half intact, emerged from the void.

Its jaw opened and closed, spewing out a blue flame imbued with the imagery of death!
Wherever the flames passed, even the air was frozen into ice crystals, only to burn away completely in the next instant.

All the surrounding mummies who hadn't had time to retreat were instantly reduced to ashes, and even Lei Wuji's Corpse Fiend Domain was burned with a large hole!
He let out a muffled groan, staggered back a few steps, and then spat out a mouthful of foul-smelling black blood.

Not only that, this terrifying flame is also expanding rapidly.

Upon seeing this, Elder Lei Tiangang's expression changed drastically. He retreated rapidly and shouted, "Quickly activate your mental defense!"

In an instant, the entire Qiling Sect was divided into various realms of intent.

Countless purple lightning bolts surged around Lei Tiangang, intertwining into a net.

Lei Zhenyue then formed a majestic mountain phantom to suppress all directions.

The rain was pouring down all around Lei Yunting, each drop feeling as heavy as a thousand pounds.

……

The five Great Perfection Nascent Soul realms unfolded simultaneously, directly colliding fiercely with the skull!
Lei Lie dodged to the edge of the battlefield, watching this scene with a complicated expression.

Unbeknownst to anyone, a recording stone was quietly placed on his shoulder, recording this earth-shattering duel in its entirety.

"Alo, what should I do?" Lei Lie struggled painfully in his heart, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

Rumbling--

The energy turbulence generated by the clash of their spiritual energies tore countless bottomless cracks into the ground of the Qiling Sect.

Even those outside sensed something was wrong.

This includes Cao Zhengyang and Sikong Yan, among others.

"Let's get started, we're really getting started!" Sikong Yan's eyes were red with excitement.

Cao Zhengyang just frowned. Although the Four-Color Killing Formation had been set up, he never thought that one day, when he was the fisherman and the oriole, he would be so terrified.

Five powerful county-level experts from the Liu family of the imperial capital, the emperor's favorite concubine, and dozens of shadow guards.

Lei Lie, the sect leader of the Golden Thunder Sect, one of the five Grand Elders, and acting sect leader.

These powerful figures, whose mere stomp could shake the entire region, will all perish here today.

He glanced sideways at the deranged Sikong Yan beside him and suddenly felt a sense of unease, as if he had been tricked.

But now, it's too late for regrets; they were the ones who orchestrated this whole thing.

Lei Wuji's existence will only bring unimaginable disasters to more people.

If it could save more lives, he was too willing to take the risk!
……

At this moment, Liu Xuanfeng's white hair danced wildly as he formed hand seals: "Netherworld Yellow Springs!"

The next moment, the flames spewing from the skull in the void suddenly changed, transforming into a murky yellow river phantom.

What appears to be merely a projection contains the purest aura of death!
"Join forces immediately!" Lei Tiangang shouted hurriedly.

The others immediately merged their artistic conceptions, forming a "Five Thunderbolts Formation".

The five elders, their five-colored lightning intertwined, transformed into a ferocious thunder beast, roaring as it crashed fiercely into the phantom of the Yellow Springs!

"boom--!!!"

The world became silent.

The next moment, a terrifying shockwave from the explosion spread out in a ring.

All the buildings of the Qiling Sect instantly vaporized, and the ground within a radius of dozens of miles sank by three zhang.

Countless spatial rifts spread like a spider web, and jets of dark void turbulence surged forth.

Liu Xuanfeng groaned, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.

The illusory skull behind him was now covered in cracks and no longer emitted any aura of the underworld.

Meanwhile, Lei Wuji on the other side let out an inhuman howl, his rotting body twisting and swelling at bizarre angles.

The mummified remains that had been burned to ashes were transformed into wisps of black smoke, which he inhaled into his body.

In the blink of an eye, he transformed into a three-zhang-tall blue-faced, fanged monster, with highly corrosive corpse poison dripping from its fangs.

"Ho ho."

He was breathing heavily, like a broken bellows, and as he looked at everyone present, a sinister glint flashed in his eyes, and a ferocious smile appeared on his lips.

Then suddenly it raised its sharp claws and plunged them into its own chest!
"Pfft-"

The rotting flesh was torn open, revealing a gruesome scene inside.

Inside his chest cavity was a small pool of lightning!
Purple lightning flowed between the festering internal organs, intertwining with the dark corpse energy to form a strange purplish-black energy that emitted destructive fluctuations.

"A natural lightning pool... no, this is an acquired lightning pool! How did you manage to do that?!"

Liu Xuanfeng's pupils shrank suddenly, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Natural lightning pools are extremely rare, and even those at the Spirit Severing Realm are eager to possess them.

Although the Heavenly Thunder Pool can be artificially refined, it requires a long period of time to settle.

But this monster in front of me not only successfully forged a pool of lightning, but also integrated it into its physical body.

Lei Tiangang and the other five Supreme Elders watched all of this in shock.

They knew that the sect leader had been in seclusion in Leishan, but they never imagined that he would go so crazy.

Throughout the history of the Golden Thunder Sect, several sect leaders attempted to refine the Thunder Pool and break through to the Spirit Severing stage when their lifespans were nearing their end.

Without exception, they all exploded and died tragically!
"Ha...you...will all become...nourishment...for my ascension...to the Spirit Severing Realm...death..."

Lei Wuji was almost unable to speak, his eyes filled with madness.

He plunged both hands into the Thunder Pool, violently mixing the lightning with the corpse energy to form an unstable purplish-black energy sphere.

Then, he looked at Liu Xuanfeng with a sinister grin.

"Not good—" Upon seeing this scene, Liu Xuanfeng felt his scalp tingle and, without saying a word, turned around and tried to escape.

But it was too late -

"boom!!!"

A dazzling light shot into the sky, followed by a terrifying explosion that resounded through the heavens.

A purplish-black energy storm instantly swept across the entire Qiling Sect, tearing the original two-colored barrier to shreds like paper.

Outside, Fifth Elder Liu Qingyang and Consort Ying, who were anxiously trying to break the formation, were the first to be hit. They were thrown hundreds of feet away by the shockwave and crashed heavily into the distant mountain wall.

"Consort Ying—"

The Shadow Guards on guard in the distance changed their expressions drastically and rushed frantically towards Consort Ying.

Further away, watching the terrifying mushroom cloud bloom, Zhou Qing and the others who had rushed over were horrified.

After realizing what had happened, Mo Xingjian hurriedly contacted Cao Zhengyang and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he was alright.

"Good heavens!" Sikong Yan squinted at the menacing mushroom cloud and clicked his tongue in amazement.

Then, he turned slightly to look at Zhou Qing and the others who were rushing towards him from afar, and a smile appeared on his lips.

"It seems everyone who was supposed to come has arrived." He turned to look at Cao Zhengyang, his tone light.

"Brother Cao, it's time to activate the Four-Color Killing Formation, lest outsiders discover this good show."

Cao Zhengyang did not respond immediately, but instead gave Gao Xuan a subtle look.

Gao Xuan immediately understood the meaning and shook his head slightly.

Cao Zhengyang mumbled something, and Gao Xuan, after hearing it, gritted his teeth and immediately left.

"Come with me!"

Gao Xuan leaped onto the airship, grabbed Zhou Qing and Mo Xingjian's arms, and was about to rush out with them.

Duanmu Shu and the others were taken aback at first, then looked at Sikong Yan and the dozen or so Nascent Soul Grand Perfection experts behind him not far away, and immediately understood what was going on.

A relieved smile appeared on their lips as they jumped off the flying boat without hesitation.

They still vividly remember the lessons learned from the Battle of Canglan Mountain.

Now, almost all of the Taiqing Sect's high-ranking members are here. If something unexpected happens, at least Gao Xuan, Mo Xingjian, and Zhou Qing can continue the Taiqing Sect's legacy.

Gao Xuan has served as acting sect leader multiple times, and his abilities are beyond doubt.

Mo Xingjian is Zhou Qing's master and has extremely high prestige within the sect.

Zhou Qing, on the other hand, represents the future hope of the Taiqing Sect.

"Uncle-Master, what are you doing?" Zhou Qing struggled violently, his eyes filled with confusion.

Mo Xingjian also realized what was happening and grabbed Zhou Qing's other arm, saying in a deep voice, "Let's go!"

shhhhhh!
Just then, beams of light suddenly shot into the sky from the surrounding mountains!

The four colors of light—blue, red, white, and black—intertwined, instantly forming a huge barrier that enveloped the entire outer perimeter of the Weeping Spirit Sect.

Zhou Qing watched helplessly as her senior uncle and the others stepped into the formation without hesitation, and her eyes immediately turned red.

Seeing Sikong Yan and the others also in the formation, an ominous premonition welled up in his heart.

"I am a member of the Taiqing Sect, not a deserter!"

Zhou Qing roared and instantly transformed into a golden-winged roc!
Golden wings unfurled, and the violent power directly blasted Gao Xuan and Mo Xingjian away.

At the very last moment before the magic circle was about to completely close, he rushed in like a golden lightning bolt!

"Zhou Qing!"

Gao Xuan and Mo Xingjian were shocked and tried to give chase, but were blocked by the completely closed Four-Color Killing Array.

Inside the formation, Zhou Qing transformed back into human form. He glanced at the two people outside who were constantly knocking, smiled slightly, and gave them a reassuring look.

Then he turned around and ran towards Cao Zhengyang and the others without looking back.

These are his family members, and he will never allow anything to happen to them again!

He is now the number one person below the Spirit Slayer level, possessing inscription-level divine abilities and ultimate weapons. Even if he encounters danger, he will definitely be able to protect everyone!

At the very least, they are more than capable of protecting themselves.

Sikong Yan looked at this scene and shook his head helplessly.

"You're quite cautious. But I really meant no harm this time. Brother Cao is being too petty."

Cao Zhengyang said coldly, "Once bitten by a snake, twice shy."

"You mean Canglan Mountain?" Sikong Yan chuckled. "Using the same method twice? Even if I'm stupid, your Taiqing Sect wouldn't fall into the same trap twice, would it?"

Cao Zhengyang's gaze was deep: "Haven't they already jumped a second time?"

"It seems that's really true." Sikong Yan suddenly turned his head, a meaningful smile appearing on his lips.

"However, your young sect leader doesn't seem to trust you."

Cao Zhengyang turned around abruptly and saw a golden streak of light hurtling through the air. He was so angry that his face turned ashen: "Nonsense!"

Duanmu Shu and the others, who had just landed, turned around and hurriedly went to greet them.

"Who let you in?!" Cao Zhengyang grabbed Zhou Qing's shoulder, his voice trembling.

The crowd surrounded Zhou Qing, all of them anxious and angry.

Zhou Qing looked at these familiar faces and chuckled, "Just now, Senior Uncle Gao dragged me out without saying a word, and I didn't even have time to react, but this flying boat is mine—"

Zhou Qing glanced at the flying boat beside him.

"This was made for me by the entire clan, so I have to take it with me. Now that everything is alright, I'll go out now."

Upon hearing this, the peak master of Wanqi Peak suddenly felt a surge of warmth in his eyes, along with a sense of pride.

As everyone looked at Zhou Qing, a warm feeling welled up in their hearts.

Cao Zhengyang took a deep breath and patted Zhou Qing's shoulder heavily: "Go out my ass! Stay behind us. This battle is no small matter!"

Zhou Qing nodded solemnly, turning his gaze to Sikong Yan.

Sikong Yan, who was not far away, waved enthusiastically and said, "Little Sect Leader, it's been a long time!"

Zhou Qing coldly turned her face away.

The last time I saw this person at the Canglan Mountain ruins, he was with Shen Yunzhou. It was also at that time that he saw Nannan, who should have died...

In the distance, the mushroom cloud was still churning. Because the four-colored magic array had sealed off this area, the acrid smell from the explosion grew increasingly strong and nauseating.

……

"what--"

At the epicenter of the explosion, space was completely distorted.

Because Lei Wuji's Thunder Pool was aimed at Liu Xuanfeng, he was unsurprisingly submerged in the energy surge.

Then came a heart-wrenching scream.

When the smoke and dust cleared up, half of Liu Xuanfeng's body was a bloody mess, his left arm was missing, and there was a shocking hole in his abdomen.

"Cough cough..." He trembled all over and spat out a mouthful of black blood mixed with fragments of internal organs.

Two primordial spirits were forced out of his body—it was Liu Youtai and Liu Mingde.

At this moment, their primordial spirits not only became transparent, but were also covered with spiderweb-like black patterns.

A strong stench of decay permeated the air.

"Big...Big Brother..." Liu Youtai's primordial spirit trembled, his voice broken and intermittent, "We...can't hold on any longer..."

Looking at his two brothers, Liu Xuanfeng's eyes instantly turned bloodshot.

His heart was breaking. Even if he could get out alive, how long could the Liu family hold on after losing the second, third, and fourth sons?

not to mention--

He looked down at his broken body and suddenly burst into a bitter laugh, his laughter filled with despair.

"Big Brother!" Fifth Elder Liu Qingyang, clutching his injured chest, rushed over anxiously with Consort Ying.

When they saw the horrific scene before them, they were filled with disbelief.

Weren't we here to get the antidote? How did things turn out like this?
"I'll cover their retreat. Quickly take Ying'er and leave!" Liu Xuanfeng staggered to his feet, his voice hoarse.

Liu Qingyang and Consort Ying shook their heads desperately.

Consort Ying was already in tears. Only now did she realize that her family was the foundation for her standing in the palace.

If he loses them, he, a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, will have no one to rely on in the deep palace.

What's more, she has now lost her only son...

"No, no, we'll go together, guards, guards—" Consort Ying cried out, trembling as she pleaded for help from the Shadow Guards behind her.

Roar--

But in the next moment, Liu Youtai and Liu Mingde's primordial spirits suddenly let out beast-like roars, and the clarity in their eyes was instantly replaced by madness.

They pounced on Liu Xuanfeng, their primordial spirits extending sharp black tentacles that pierced into his battered body!
"what!!!"

Liu Xuanfeng let out a heart-wrenching scream.

At the same time, a dark figure rushed out from the smoke and dust; it was none other than the Fourth Elder, Liu Hansong, who had completely turned into a zombie.

His skin had turned completely bluish-gray, and his fangs were longer and sharper than before.

It bit directly at Liu Qingyang, who was standing there dumbfounded!

"Second Brother! Third Brother!" Liu Qingyang stared in disbelief at the scene before him.

Just as he was about to step forward to help his older brother, Liu Hansong bit him on the neck from behind!
"what--"

A piercing scream once again echoed through the sky.

Consort Ying was so frightened that she collapsed to the ground, her face streaked with tears and filled with terror.

She trembled as she used her hands to support herself as she backed away.

The Liu family of Kyoto is completely finished!
On the other side, the five elders of the Golden Thunder Sect also suffered a terrible fate.

They were quite close to the epicenter of the explosion, and they were all seriously injured and lying on the ground.

Lei Tiangang's body was half gone, Lei Zhenyue had a large, open hole in his chest, and the other three were also on the verge of death.

Sect Master Lei Tiangang stared in disbelief at the monster in the distance.

They didn't expect that Zong would take action and completely ignore them.

No, to be precise, in Lei Wuji's eyes now, these senior uncles who don't have many years left to live are nothing more than pawns that can be sacrificed at any time!

Lei Lie crawled out of the ruins with difficulty, covered in blood.

He looked at his master in the distance, who no longer resembled a human at all, and smiled bitterly.

"If this is the price for advancing to the Spirit Severing Realm, I would rather remain in the Nascent Soul Realm forever."

"At least... I'm still a thinking person..."

……

Liu Xuanfeng wailed in agony, never imagining that this poison would be so terrifying.

The second and third brothers clearly abandoned their physical bodies and fled with their souls immediately, yet they were still infected.

What's even more terrifying is that, in just a few battles since it was bitten, it has completely lost control and become a walking corpse.

Now, he could feel the terror of this toxin even more clearly. Wherever it passed, all spiritual energy was polluted and turned into viscous black blood.

The dantian was churning violently, but it was not a sign of spiritual energy circulation; rather, it was a spasm caused by the corpse poison eroding the foundation of one's Dao.

"Uh-"

Liu Xuanfeng looked on with distress at his two brothers who were still tearing at him.

He could feel his consciousness being eroded by some kind of tyrannical will, and bloodthirsty impulses kept flashing through his mind.

However, at this moment, he suddenly calmed down.

"Ah……"

He laughed in despair, a laugh tinged with relief.

On the other side, Liu Qingyang, the fifth brother who was being torn apart by the fourth brother Liu Hansong, suddenly struck his opponent with a palm and sent him flying, clutching the gushing blood on the back of his neck.

The two exchanged a glance, and their years of tacit understanding revealed a resolute determination in each other's eyes.

They looked up at the sky, where the light of the four-colored magic array flickered continuously, like a net that completely sealed off this world.

“It’s truly a series of interconnected schemes.” Liu Qingyang laughed bitterly. “From beginning to end, it was a trap. We really capsized in the gutter.”

Liu Xuanfeng muttered to himself, a ruthless glint flashing in his eyes: "So what? Since the outcome is already unchangeable, I might as well take someone down with me, otherwise it would be too much of a loss!"

The two turned to look at Consort Ying, who was being protected by numerous shadow guards and was crying her eyes out.

"Go!" Liu Xuanfeng's voice was hoarse. "If you can break out, don't come back. Don't let the Liu family's alchemy lineage be severed!"

Consort Ying trembled all over, her vision blurred with tears.

Only now did she truly understand the terrible price she had paid for her own selfish desires.

For the sake of that good-for-nothing son, she actually caused the deaths of all five of her uncles from her maternal family!
She has failed the ancestors of the Liu family!
"Don't worry, we'll clear the way for you!"

Fifth Elder Liu Qingyang suddenly turned his head, revealing a familiar smile.

That smile was exactly the same as when I sent her off on her wedding day.

Warm, indulgent, and tinged with a touch of reluctance.

Liu Xuanfeng turned his head and, while still conscious, suddenly bit his tongue, spitting out two drops of blood essence that landed precisely on the two ferocious primordial spirits on his shoulder.

"Zizi-"

As black mist billowed, the primordial spirit, which was originally covered in black patterns, gradually stopped biting.

Liu Youtai and Liu Mingde's cloudy eyes briefly regained their clarity, and when they saw the deep, bone-revealing wounds on their elder brother's body, they were so frightened that they retreated repeatedly.

"Big brother, I'm sorry."

Their voices trembled, and their primordial spirits fluctuated violently.

Liu Xuanfeng shook his head, also revealing a gentle smile: "It's nothing..."

He turned to look at Consort Ying, who was crying her eyes out, and said, "Let's give Ying'er a way out. This is the last thing we can do."

The two understood each other, and their primordial spirits suddenly ignited!
"kill--"

Liu Xuanfeng roared, staring intently at Lei Wuji in the distance. His dantian and qi sea began to tremble violently, and the spiritual power around him instantly became violent.

Then, he charged forward first.

Liu Youtai and Liu Mingde laughed heartily, their primordial spirits fluctuating violently as they transformed into two streaks of light and chased after them.

"The sons of the Liu family, what is death to them!"

"Protect our Master!"

Lei Lie crawled out of the ruins, shouting at the top of his lungs, and rushed towards Lei Wuji's back!

Despite being seriously injured, Lei Tiangang and the other four gritted their teeth and got up, desperately trying to stop them.

For them, Lei Wuji was their only hope for advancing to the Spirit Slaying Realm!

"Five Thunderbolts Seal the Demon!"

The five people simultaneously formed hand seals, and five-colored lightning intertwined to form a net, attempting to block the three.

"Big brother! You go! Leave this to me!"

Liu Qingyang laughed wildly, suddenly turned around, grabbed Liu Hansong who was lunging at him again, and let him bite and tear at him, then rushed towards Lei Tiangang and the others!

"Fourth Brother, let's set off together as brothers. Don't let these country bumpkins look down on us."

"My Liu family's alchemy has been passed down for tens of thousands of years—"

His voice resounded through the sky, filled with unparalleled pride and determination.

"Though dead—"

No regrets!!!

"boom!!!!!!"

The world became silent.

The next moment, the self-destruction power of the Great Perfection of the Divine Transformation Realm burst forth!
The blinding light instantly engulfed the surrounding area for hundreds of miles, and the space shattered layer by layer like a mirror.

In the raging energy storm, Liu Qingyang and Liu Hansong's figures completely vanished, leaving not a trace.

The five elders of the Lei family were the first to be affected.

The three people's physical bodies were vaporized in the explosion, and their souls didn't even have time to escape.

The remaining two survived by sheer luck, but they were badly injured and lay dying in pools of blood.

The shockwave swept through, completely leveling the already dilapidated Qiling Sect.

Liu Xuanfeng and the other two watched as the fourth and fifth brothers had already set off, but the four-colored magic array above their heads was still not deactivated, indicating that the real array plate should be in Lei Wuji's hands.

That being the case——

He stood tall, his body covered in blood, yet his spirit remained undiminished.

Looking at Lei Wuji, who was also injured, a sinister smile curled at the corner of his mouth: "Your turn..."

Lei Wuji could easily sense the three men's intentions. Seeing them heading straight for him, he let out a cold snort from his rotting throat.

"You...are not worthy!"

Before he finished speaking, his hunched back suddenly twitched violently!
"Shoot-"

With a chilling tearing sound, four bluish-gray arms burst out from his back!

The newborn's arms were also covered in lividity, and his fingernails were as black as ink, gleaming with a cold, eerie light.

All six arms rose simultaneously, the corpse energy and lightning intertwining and condensing into a large, purplish-black net in the air.

"seal up--"

Lei Wuji swung all six arms at once, and a huge net descended upon the three members of the Liu family!

Liu Xuanfeng and the other two's pupils shrank sharply; they could feel the special suppressive force emanating from this net.

This caused their dantian and dantian qi sea to stagnate!
"Whoosh!"

But in the next moment, a figure suddenly appeared!
Lei Lie had somehow gotten behind Lei Wuji, and a flame rune appeared in his hand. He suddenly stuck it to Lei Wuji's back!
"burst!"

With a sharp shout, he retreated rapidly!
