Houtu is infatuated with me, so I made her lean against the wall.

If the ley lines and dragon veins of the northern continent are destroyed, this place will become a barren and desolate land.

Let alone nurturing top-tier innate spiritual treasures, even living beings would find it difficult to cultivate here.

Earth veins and dragon veins are the most important things in the world.

Moreover, Shen Ni actually used the World-Destroying Curse to drag the entire northern continent's ley lines and dragon veins into the water.

Once the ley lines and dragon veins are destroyed.

While Shen Ni will certainly die without a burial place, those who oppose Shen Ni will also be punished by Heaven and Earth.

At that time, let alone gain the merit of ending the great calamity, they will probably need to contribute a lot of merit and primordial energy.

If that's not enough to repay, then one can only repay it with cultivation and luck.

How could Qin Ming and the others accept such a situation?

Therefore, upon witnessing this scene, Qin Ming immediately summoned the thirty-six Sea-Stabilizing Pearls and set up the Thirty-Six Heavens Grand Array, trapping Shen Ni within it. He then used the Gods' Pure Land, along with the Fifteen-Grade Pure World White Lotus and the Beginningless Bell, to suppress the raging earth veins and dragon veins.

Hongjun and the others did the same, unleashing their full supernatural powers to cooperate with Qin Ming in suppressing the earth veins and dragon veins of the northern continent.

However, this is merely a drop in the ocean.

Even though they are powerful, the northern continent is boundless and endless, with the earth's veins and dragon veins erupting simultaneously, generating power that cannot be measured by reason.

"No, we are afraid we cannot protect all the ley lines and dragon veins of the Northern Continent!"

"The only option now is probably to sacrifice the pawns to save the king!"

Yang Mei, her brows furrowed as she sensed the disturbance in the northern continent's ley lines and dragon veins, made a suggestion with a grim expression.

"I'm afraid that's the only way!"

Upon hearing this, Hongjun and the others frowned, and after thinking for a while, they agreed with Yang Mei's opinion.

"No, there's another way!"

"Listen, cultivators of all three races! The Northern Continent is about to perish, and a calamity will surely descend upon the world!"

"At best, it will severely damage one's cultivation; at worst, it will lead to sudden death!"

"The only way forward now is to unite and work together to protect the earth's veins!"

After a pause, Qin Ming continued, "Fellow Daoists, I hope you will grant me some time!"

"The curse of world destruction is not unbreakable!"

"This humble Taoist is willing to consume the very essence of the Pure White Lotus to purify the curse of world destruction!"

With that, Qin Ming bowed to Hongjun and the others.

Upon hearing this, Hongjun and the others looked at Qin Ming in disbelief.

They never expected Qin Ming to be so selfless.

It should be noted that Qin Ming's true form is the Pure White Lotus.

Consuming the essence of the Pure World White Lotus is also consuming Qin Ming's essence.

Once the source is severely damaged, it will be much more difficult to make up for it.

However, if the original source cannot be repaired, it will also be detrimental to Qin Ming's future cultivation.

Even worse, once Qin Xiang gets stuck at a certain level, it will be extremely difficult for him to break through.

If it were them, they wouldn't be able to do this.

Thinking of this, Hongjun and the others began to look at Qin Ming differently.

As for Luo Hou, he looked at Qin Ming as if he were a fool.

In his opinion, Qin Ming's actions were completely unnecessary.

After all, as long as they follow Yang Mei's advice, sacrifice the pawns to save the king, and protect the main ley lines and dragon veins of the northern continent.

At that time, the northern continent will certainly become a bitterly cold land, making it difficult for living beings to cultivate, and heaven and earth will also punish them.

However, most of these punishments are borne by Shenni, while a small portion will be distributed among the general population.

In this way, although there will be some losses, we can still share in the merits after the great calamity ends.

With both factors canceling each other out, there is not only no loss, but also a profit.

But Qin Ming wants to consume his source to eliminate the destructive power of the curse of world destruction. Isn't that stupid?

Ignoring everyone's thoughts, Qin Ming sat cross-legged on the fifteenth-grade Pure World White Lotus while the cultivators of the three races simultaneously unleashed their power to protect the earth veins and dragon veins. The Boundless Bell was above his head, and his entire body was enveloped in a domain.

"The Supreme Star, ever adaptable, dispels evil and demons, protects life and body, brings wisdom and clarity, peace of mind and spirit, eternal life for the three souls, and unwavering spirit!"

"Danzhu, the god of the mouth, expels filth and dispels impurities; the god of the tongue, upholds righteousness..."

"May the Primordial Beginning bring peace and tranquility, and may all spirits, including the true officials of mountains and rivers, and the spirits of the earth..."

As Qin Ming unleashed his full magical power and the Law of Purification, beams of purifying light spread across the earth's veins and dragon veins.

The riots that were originally caused by the curse of world destruction gradually subsided under the protection of the law of purification.

One thousand years, two thousand years... until twelve thousand nine hundred and sixty years passed, and the northern continent fell into complete silence.

At this moment, the fifteenth-grade Pure World White Lotus had become dull and lifeless, having long lost its divine luster.

This is because the source energy has been consumed excessively.

Not only the fifteenth-grade Pure World White Lotus, but Qin Ming himself was also in an unprecedented state of weakness.

He was originally transformed from a fifteenth-grade Pure White Lotus, and since his original essence was greatly depleted, he was naturally affected as well.

At this moment, Qin Ming's cultivation at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm showed signs of regression.

On the other side, Hongjun and the others saw that Qin Ming had actually managed to stabilize the northern continent, and a look of admiration appeared in their eyes.

When Luo Hou saw the weakened Qin Ming, his eyes flickered.

He was pondering whether he should take this opportunity to kill Qin Ming.

After a moment's thought, Rahu decided to abandon the plan.

Firstly, Qin Ming was incredibly mysterious. Before their lotus platforms matured, Qin Ming transformed into the lotus platform itself and broke through the shackles of the twelfth-grade Pure World White Lotus, making it the thirteenth-grade Pure World White Lotus.

And now, in just one Yuanhui period, the original thirteenth-grade Pure World White Lotus has been promoted to the fifteenth grade.

Coupled with the previous battle between Qin Ming and Shen Ni, the combat power Qin Ming displayed made Luo Hou feel terrified.

He wasn't sure if Qin Ming still had any fighting strength left at this point.

Secondly, with Hongjun and others nearby, some of them might stand idly by or even consider reaping the benefits without lifting a finger.

However, cultivators like Qiankun, Yin Yang, and Yang Mei would never allow themselves to launch a sneak attack on Qin Ming.

With them taking action, it would be difficult for him to kill Qin Ming and seize Qin Ming's treasure.

Therefore, after thinking for a moment, Rahu gave up the idea.

On the other side, Qin Ming sensed that his cultivation level was showing a slight downward trend. His expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly summoned the Three Lights Divine Water, pouring it onto the fifteenth-grade Pure World White Lotus and himself as if it were free.

This scene caused the mouths of all the powerful figures watching to twitch again.

You should know that the Three Lights Divine Water is no ordinary thing.

That's the ultimate healing potion from the primordial era.

The Three Lights Divine Water is divided into three colors: starlight, moonlight, and sunlight. Each color alone is a rare and potent poison from the primordial wilderness.

However, when the three kinds of divine water are combined, they become the ultimate healing water.

Legend has it that as long as one doesn't die, drinking the Three Lights Divine Water will restore one to full health.

Now, Qin Ming is wasting the Three Lights Divine Water so much that it truly makes Hongjun and the others feel heartbroken.

Sensing the gazes around him, Qin Ming smiled slightly at everyone, then flashed into the Thirty-Six Heavens Formation. He then swiftly retrieved a piece of Chaos Breath Soil and planted the Fifteenth-Grade Pure World White Lotus on it.

Instantly, the depleted essence was rapidly restored under the blessing of the Three Lights Divine Water and the Chaos Breath Soil.

In the blink of an eye, a thousand years had passed. Qin Ming had recovered completely. He stood up, stretched his limbs, and then flashed into the world where Shen Ni was trapped.

"God, are you ready to die?"

At this moment, Shen Ni was extremely weak.

The Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Annihilation Formation was broken, and Shen Ni's origin was also severely damaged.

Furthermore, Shen Ni later used the Curse of Annihilation to try to drag the Northern Continent down with him. Given the backlash from heaven and earth, it's already quite remarkable that Shen Ni didn't die.

"Seeing you arrive unharmed, my plan must have failed, right?"

Shen Ni looked at Qin Ming weakly.

"Indeed, your plan has failed. Do you have any last words?"

Qin Ming didn't hide anything and nodded calmly.

"Haha, another Pure World Taoist. My defeat was not unjust. However, one day I will make a comeback, hehehe!"

A strange smile appeared on Shen Ni's face. Before Qin Ming could make a move, Shen Ni swiftly plunged the God-Slaying Spear into his own throat.

In an instant, the powerful destructive force and baleful aura annihilated Shen Ni's remaining life force and primordial spirit, and even his body was shattered into pieces and dissipated in this world, leaving only Qin Ming and the God-Slaying Spear floating in the air.

Upon seeing this, Qin Ming frowned: "What did Shen Ni mean by his last sentence?"

"Having committed suicide with the God-Slaying Spear, his primordial spirit dissipated, his true soul extinguished. He doesn't even qualify to become a ghost, so how can he possibly make a comeback?"

Unable to figure it out, Qin Ming simply stopped thinking about it and happily put away the God-Slaying Spear. After imprinting it with his primordial spirit, he placed it into the Chaos Pearl space.

After doing all this, Qin Ming finally dispersed the Thirty-Six Heavens Grand Array.
