Cultivation of Immortality: This is what unorthodox methods are like.

Wang Quan glanced at his round-faced senior sister's trembling chest, took a deep breath, and said, "Senior sister, I've already dealt with [Northern Darkness]. Dealing with [Western Pole] is just a side matter!"

The round-faced senior sister coughed: "We are all orthodox cultivators. If we can resolve this peacefully, it's best to do so."

"If a peaceful resolution is not possible, just give them a warning."

"I don't want you to make enemies because of me."

Wang Quan laughed upon hearing this, "As long as we eliminate them all, we will naturally have no more enemies."

The round-faced Taoist nun blinked: "That makes sense."

"Once everyone is killed, there will be no enemies left."

"The problem is... we can't kill them all!"

"Their family must have orthodox cultivators practicing in other sects."

"Among them, the number of cultivators who have surpassed the Purple Mansion and Golden Core stages is not countless, but it is definitely not small."

"There are so many cultivators, we Foundation Establishment cultivators can't kill them all."

Wang Quan nodded: "That's right!"

"But it would be better to kill some if possible!"

"Furthermore, we can kill them while pretending we know nothing about it."

"After killing most of them and demonstrating your power, we can then claim ignorance."

After considering it for a moment, the round-faced senior sister nodded and said, "Okay!"

After discussing various methods, the round-faced senior sister prepared the ritual materials.

This time, the royal power will employ numerous rituals and utilize the five-colored altar to give the [Western Pole] family a grand ceremony.

On the one hand, it was to demonstrate their power, and on the other hand, it was to vent their anger.

After reviewing the memories of those Foundation Establishment cultivators, Wang Quan became extremely angry.

Because of these bastards, they actually destroyed the safe zone of the second layer of the world.

You must understand that before mastering the "Scripture of Saving People" and before being able to efficiently, cheaply, and massively refine sunlight, opening up a safe zone in the second layer of the world is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Every safe zone embodies the struggles of those who came before.

However, the struggles of our predecessors over thousands of years were easily destroyed by the two powerful families, the Western Extremity and the Northern Darkness.

Even combining the information from the [Ghost Emperor's Heart], Wang Quan felt that similar things were happening in other corners of the world.

These powerful families, perhaps for the sake of chaos or to seize control of the narrative, are frantically reducing the second layer of the world's safe zone.

Their actions are tantamount to severing the foundation of orthodox cultivators.

"Whether it's fighting or vying for interests, it should be a real fight with real swords and spears."

"Instead of resorting to underhanded tactics to destroy the legacy of one's predecessor and thus threaten others."

"We're all working so hard to build the safe zone, and they're just destroying it so easily—it's outrageous!"

"These guys... they deserve to die!"

-----------------

[West Pole] A manor.

Various colored streams of light rushed in, then exploded, and one by one, Foundation Establishment cultivators emerged from them.

At this moment, a Foundation Establishment cultivator opened his mouth and blew out a breath of wind. This wind was like a bone-corroding wind, melting away houses and rocks, finally revealing a secret chamber underground.

The numerous restrictions and rituals outside the secret chamber crumbled under the influence of this whisper.

Whoosh!

The door to the secret chamber was blown open, the walls were blown open, revealing corpses underneath.

At this moment, a monk brought out oil lamps from a room.

These oil lamps are the life-saving lamps of the [West Pole] family.

Every Foundation Establishment cultivator will forge a Life Lamp.

When the life lamp goes out, a person dies and their life force dissipates; their soul flies away and their spirit scatters, leaving them with no chance to go to the underworld and start over.

The servants cried out in terror that their masters had passed away when they saw the life lamp go out.

Many powerful cultivators from the Western Regions looked grim as they witnessed this scene.

Some monks exhaled colored smoke, tracing back to the past and searching for traces of death.

A monk lit sandalwood incense and offered it to the corpse, hoping to awaken it and make it reveal who the murderer was.

Some cultivators took the prototype of the magic weapon and kept probing for subtle information, hoping to make some discoveries.

Girgh!

twitter!

A group of Foundation Establishment cultivators wasted the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, but gained nothing.

Pfft!

A wisp of colorful smoke died down.

Click!

The mirror, the prototype of the magic weapon, shattered.

There was a Foundation Establishment cultivator who spent half a day performing some kind of shamanistic ritual, but the corpse remained silent.

"What a brilliant tactic!"

"The killer not only erases their souls, but also the thoughts and obsessions that remain in their flesh and blood."

"The murderer is either a Purple Mansion cultivator or a Golden Core cultivator."

Upon hearing this, several Foundation Establishment cultivators frowned.

"Three thousand unorthodox practitioners, eight hundred unorthodox sects, and one hundred and eight orthodox Xuanmen cultivators above the Purple Mansion level have all gone to the extreme regions in all directions to do hard labor."

"Those who remained in the mainland were all members of ordinary sects and aristocratic families."

Finding the murderer among countless ordinary sects and aristocratic families is as difficult as ascending to heaven!

"Yeah, at least we can't do that!"

"Should we invite experts at the Purple Mansion or Golden Core stages over?"

The group discussed the matter, with some suggesting an invitation while others felt it was unnecessary.

Just then, a voice broke in: "The people are all dead, why bother finding out who the murderer is?"

"After all, those who are alive must move forward and look ahead."

"You're wasting your energy on dead people; it's a complete waste of time."

Upon hearing this, someone nodded in agreement: "That makes sense!"

Someone shook their head: "What's the point? Our people are dead. If we don't find the killer, what will our enemies think of us?"

"They will secretly laugh at us, mock us, and despise us."

"Our [Western Pole] family will be disgraced!"

"us....."

The cultivator was furious. He roared and urged everyone to jointly invite experts from the Purple Mansion Realm or even the Golden Core Realm to come and investigate the murderer.

The other Foundation Establishment cultivators were persuaded.

Soon, this group of Foundation Establishment cultivators prepared to set up an incense table and invite experts from the Purple Mansion or even Golden Core realms to come and investigate the murderer.

The smoke from incense rose as a Foundation Establishment cultivator offered incense and repeatedly made offerings.

After offering prayers three or five times, a gasp came from behind.

He turned around and saw that his friends looked grim.

"What's wrong?" The Foundation Establishment cultivator was uneasy.

One of my friends swallowed hard: "The incense has gone out."

Upon hearing this, the Foundation Establishment cultivator who was offering sacrifices turned pale instantly.

He turned back to look at the sandalwood.

The sandalwood incense burned out, and no more smoke appeared.

"Someone is casting a spell on us?" The Foundation Establishment cultivator gritted his teeth. "They killed our people, and instead of escaping, they're trying to kill us reinforcements?"

"Arrogant!"

"That's outrageous!"

"Everyone, let's join forces and strike back at his arrogant attitude."

A chorus of "Good!" came from behind.

"Let's all cast spells together to search for and attack the enemy!"

The Foundation Establishment cultivator smiled.

With such a supportive team, and everyone working together, we're sure to crush the killer's arrogance.

only.....

Why are my friends' voices fading into the distance?

At that moment, he heard a series of whooshing sounds behind him.

He instinctively turned around and saw many of his companions transforming into flames, moonlight, or sunlight, all frantically activating their escape techniques and hurtling away.

This Foundation Establishment cultivator... was bewildered.

Didn't we agree to join forces to suppress the enemy's arrogance?

Why did you all suddenly run away?

Although the opponent may be a Purple Mansion cultivator, or even a Golden Core cultivator.

We Foundation Establishment cultivators are no match for them.

But when the time comes, we must struggle and resist, and show the pride and methods of the scions of the [Western Extreme] family.

Why is everyone running so fast?

"Do you guys even have any of the arrogance and pride of the [Western Extremity] family's scions?"

"Don't go, stop right there!"

The next moment, he grabbed a handful of spirit soil and threw it into the air:

boom!

He transformed into a streak of earthy yellow light, chasing after his fleeing companions.
