The path to immortality through martial arts begins with being forced into marriage!

In the darkness of night, a figure slowly emerged from the depths of the Blood-Clad Sect.

The visitor was an old man with white hair and a withered appearance.

His aura was extremely weak, like a candle flickering in the wind, ready to be extinguished at any moment.

Yet this fragile figure is now walking step by step through the void.

With each step taken, the confinement of heaven and earth intensifies.

This person was none other than Xue Mingzi!

The third-generation patriarch of the Blood-Clad Sect!

Upon seeing this figure, the Blood Fiend Ancestor's body couldn't help but tremble.

This is not because of fear, but because of an instinctive reaction that rises from the depths of the soul!

Years ago, before he broke through to the Golden Core realm, the psychological trauma Xue Mingzi inflicted on him was far too profound...

In that battle, Xue Mingzi almost completely overwhelmed him, and even his sect was nearly destroyed.

Even though he is now at the Golden Core Realm, his mentality is still unstable when he faces a powerful enemy!

Bone Demon's legs began to weaken instinctively, but Blood Netherworld never glanced at him, nor even at Blood Fiend Ancestor.

He simply lowered his head, looking at the huge pit several meters deep on the ground, and at Hunji struggling to climb out of the pit.

"Ancestor..."

Hunji's voice was hoarse, tinged with sobs.

He struggled to kneel down, but was held up by a gentle force.

"No need."

"You did a good job. It's just that the Blood-Clad Sect is too heavy, too heavy for you to lift."

Xue Mingzi's voice was very soft, so soft that it seemed like a gust of wind could blow it away.

He finally raised his head, his gaze slowly sweeping over the land he had protected for nearly a thousand years.

The mountain gate was breached, the formation was destroyed, and countless disciples lay dead in pools of blood.

There were outer disciples, inner disciples, and elders from various peaks and departments.

Some of those young faces, he couldn't even name.

But they were all disciples of the Blood Robe Sect.

Xue Mingzi withdrew his gaze and looked at the countless men in black who had stormed into the mountain gate, but there was no anger in his eyes.

"I, Xue Mingzi, will remember what you all have done today."

"You are only taking advantage of my old age and weakness, but don't forget, even a starved camel is still bigger than a horse."

"Since you are all so ruthless, then there is no need for this old man to leave you any way out."

"Let's go to heaven together!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Blood Fiend Ancestor's expression completely changed!

It wasn't because of that insult, but because he sensed that the faint, almost extinguished aura within Xue Mingzi's body was rising at an alarming rate!

That's not a breakthrough!

That is……

"He's going to self-destruct!!"

The Blood Fiend Ancestor's shrill scream echoed through the night sky as he retreated rapidly!

He wanted to escape, he tried his best to escape.

But the constraints of heaven and earth, the oppressive aura of the peak Golden Core stage, pinned him firmly to the spot!

Not only him, but all the black-clad men who had broken into the Blood Robe Gate were now like insects caught in a spider web, only able to watch helplessly as that withered figure grew brighter and brighter!

Hunji scrambled to his feet, ignoring his disheveled appearance, and roared, "Ancestor, no, no!!!"

He even struggled to rush forward, but was held tightly by the Red Demon.

"Stop! Do you want all of our ancestor's efforts to be in vain?!"

"Let me go!!"

"Sect Leader! Calm down!"

The Crimson Demon's voice choked with emotion, "You should know! Our Ancestor... Our Ancestor has no cultivation left! He's burning his physical body now!"

"Self-destruction at the Golden Core stage is an irreversible process, let alone burning the physical body!"

Hunji was stunned.

Burning the flesh?

The self-destruction of the Golden Core relies on the Golden Core within the Dantian Qi Sea.

But the ancestor's cultivation was already exhausted after using the forbidden technique, and his dantian was empty. So what could he use to self-destruct?

So, as the Red Demon said, they could only use his physical body as a bargaining chip for burning!

Take his Golden Core Peak body, which has been tempered for nearly a thousand years!

That was the only thing the ancestor had left!

"Ancestor!!!"

Hunji finally understood. He knelt on the ground, slamming his forehead against the gravel until blood streamed down his face. "This disciple is incompetent!! This disciple is incompetent!!!"

Hearing the sound, Xue Mingzi, who was walking on air, looked down at Hun Ji.

This glance contained many things. In Xue Mingzi's eyes, he actually saw the figure of Hun Ji in his youth, which overlapped with the shadow of his current appearance.

"Little guy."

Xue Mingzi's voice suddenly softened at this moment, and a smile appeared on his lips: "I've always said you're indecisive, and I've told you to change, but you never do."

"But today, you have not disappointed me."

"The sect cannot continue without sacrifices. You cannot die here."

Xue Mingzi's voice rang out again, this time addressed to all the disciples of the Blood Robe Sect.

"Step back."

"My frail body won't live much longer, so today I'll give you my final gift."

"No matter how bumpy the road ahead may be, we must forge ahead bravely."

"Not only do you carry my expectations, but you also have to live up to your future."

Let us all strive together!

As soon as he finished speaking, Xue Mingzi's incredibly aged body suddenly erupted with dazzling blood light!

That light almost illuminated the entire Blood-Clad Sect!

It illuminated every blood-stained face!

Despite the absence of any fluctuations in true energy, the spiritual energy wandering in the surrounding world seemed to be seized by an invisible hand, frantically converging towards Xue Mingzi's location!

Until a singularity that was constantly accumulating formed in front of him!

thump!

Thump thump!

No one gave the order, and no one took the lead.

No one even thought about it.

At this moment, all the disciples of the Blood Robe Sect, whether they were peak masters or disciples, knelt down in unison and bowed to Xue Mingzi from afar!

"Disciple! Respectfully bidding farewell to the Ancestor!"

"Disciple! Respectfully bidding farewell to the Ancestor!!"

The overwhelming momentum surged wave after wave, like a raging sea or a stampede of ten thousand horses!

The entire Blood-Clad Sect was engulfed by this tragic and resolute roar!

boom!!!

Heaven and earth fell silent.

That singularity, accumulated to its limit, finally erupted completely!

Blood-red light shot into the sky, and a huge crimson shockwave rose from the core area of ​​the Blood Robe Sect, soaring straight into the heavens!

That terrifying shockwave swept across all directions with overwhelming force!

The self-destruction of a Golden Core Peak cultivator's physical body is comparable in power to a full-force attack from a true Golden Core Peak cultivator!

The Blood Fiend Ancestor of the Seven Fiends Sect was the first to be hit. He didn't even have time to scream before he was completely engulfed by the violent torrent of blood!

The protective true energy of the early Golden Core stage was as fragile as paper in the face of that earth-shattering power!

It was crushed in the blink of an eye, leaving not even a trace!

Not only him, but the Bone Demon was also submerged in that endless light!

The black-clad men who broke into the Blood Robe Sect, as well as the Core Formation elders from various sects, were all reduced to dust at that moment!
