Trading the heavens starting from immortality
48. The standoff in front of the Heavenly Punishment Hall
The Heavenly Punishment Platform is located inside the "Heavenly Punishment Hall".
The grand hall stood majestically, with 3,600 steps beneath it, the steps marked with spots that resembled bloodstains. Countless weapons were stuck in the walls on both sides: knives, spears, swords, iron chains, maces... and so on, a complete array of hundreds of weapons.
These weapons were dozens of times larger than their usual size, making the hall appear even more somber and even giving off a sinister feeling.
If one enters the Heavenly Punishment Hall, one cannot fly; one must climb the steps one by one, and even the Grand Elder of the Great Feather Transformation Sect is no exception.
"this......"
Blood stained the steps, weapons stood in rows; such a scene inexplicably instilled a sense of fear in Jinshitai's heart.
But since things had come to this, they had no choice but to follow Kim Il-yeol, limping up the steps.
In front of the main hall is an extremely magnificent square with a Xingtai (a type of ancient platform) measuring nine zhang in length, width, and height. It exudes an ancient and weathered aura. The Xingtai is surrounded by carvings depicting scenes of demons and gods killing each other and all kinds of spirits fighting, which look very lifelike.
This is the prototype of the so-called "Heavenly Execution Platform"!
Two people were standing in the square.
One was a Taoist priest in green robes with eyebrows like crescent moons; the other was an exceptionally beautiful woman, like a dragon maiden from the deep sea or a fairy from the moon palace.
"Fang Qingxue!"
Upon seeing the woman, Jin Shitai was greatly surprised.
Upon seeing the Taoist priest in blue, he became respectful and said, "Senior Brother Tiandu!"
This person is none other than Hua Tiandu, the number one disciple of the Feathered Ascension Sect!
Hua Tiandu said solemnly, "Elder Tianxing, a disciple named Fang Han under Junior Sister Fang's command disregarded the bonds of brotherhood during this sect trial... He trained alongside disciples like Yuan Jiankong, but quietly left during the battle against the Red-Pink Prince. At a crucial moment, he stole the credit belonging to the inner disciples like Yuan Jiankong. The circumstances are egregious, and I hope the elder will punish him severely!"
"Huh? Is that so?"
A lazy voice came from inside the main hall.
"After my repeated questioning, all of these disciples, including Yuan Jiankong, Liu Kang, and others, can testify," Hua Tiandu said.
"If what you say, Hua Tiandu, is true, then this person has indeed violated the sect rules and should be stripped of all his gains, banned from becoming an inner disciple, and imprisoned in the Immortal Prison for three months!" the lazy voice said.
"Hua Tiandu, do you have any evidence?" Fang Qingxue sneered.
"Evidence? So many people have witnessed it firsthand, isn't that evidence enough? Junior Sister Fang, some disciples are unruly and need to be disciplined properly to avoid tarnishing the reputation of Purple Lightning Peak!"
Hua Tiandu said calmly.
"What a joke! I know Fang Han's skills well. When he went with me to train in the abyss, he could have killed the Asura Grand Commander directly. Why would he need to steal credit from his fellow disciples? Besides, does Senior Brother Hua know how these people you mentioned returned? If Fang Han hadn't informed me, and I hadn't told the elders in Blue Moon City, these disciples would be lucky if they hadn't been corrupted by the poisonous soul and turned into idiots! Not only do these people not thank Fang Han, but they also conspired to slander him. I must say, Senior Brother Hua, you really are 'well-trained'!"
Fang Qingxue said meaningfully.
"Junior Sister Fang, you are mistaken! I only came to Elder Tianxing to seek justice based on the accounts of these disciples. After all, the 'Yin-Yang Longevity Pill' is of great importance and cannot be given to those with treacherous intentions!"
Hua Tiandu retorted.
Although he doesn't need the Yin-Yang Longevity Pill, it can give his disciples an additional expert at the Divine Power Realm, which will be more advantageous for him when he takes over the position of sect leader of the Feathered Ascension Sect in the future.
"I have already informed the Sect Leader of this matter, and I believe the Sect Leader will make his own decision! Hua Tiandu, you are the First True Disciple, yet you have confused right and wrong and cannot distinguish between good and evil. Today, you have truly opened my eyes."
"Junior Sister Fang, if you think you can provoke me just because the Sect Leader values you, then you are sorely mistaken!"
As we spoke, a chill swept through the void, and a thick layer of frost had formed on the ground.
"Oh! I am not even afraid of the Demon God, but I wonder how much of that Demon God's strength you, Hua Tiandu, possess?"
Despite Hua Tiandu's threats, Fang Qingxue remained defiant.
"you……"
Hua Tiandu's expression turned slightly cold. Although he had already advanced to the tenth level of the Divine Power Realm, "Defying Fate," how could he compare to the terrifying giant in the Longevity Secret Realm? Fang Qingxue was clearly trying to oppose him; she was truly despicable!
"Alright, you two stop arguing. If it really comes to this, let them confront each other at the Heavenly Execution Platform. I believe the truth will eventually come out!"
He said in a lazy voice.
It seemed that Kim Il-yeol and his son Kim Seok-tae were about to arrive, and he said:
"Lieyangzi, what are you two doing here? And Jinshitai, what happened to your injuries?"
"This... my son, you tell me," Lieyangzi said to Jinshitai.
Then he looked at Fang Qingxue with a cold gaze.
"this......"
Jinshitai hesitated somewhat.
"Um?"
"Elder Tianxing, it's like this. Junior Sister Fang has an outer disciple who is extremely ruthless. Seeing that Junior Sister Fang was severely injured, I wanted to check on her, but she used the Seven Fiends Gourd to launch a sneak attack, severing both my arms and injuring my left leg. I hope Elder Tianxing can do me justice!"
Jinshitai cried out.
It looked extremely tragic.
He changed his tone again at this moment.
After all, Fang Qingxue herself was right here. If he were to slander her again, she would definitely fight him to the death. So Jinshitai decisively changed his story.
Jin Rilie's expression changed slightly; his son really was a handful.
"What's this outer disciple's name?"
Inside the Heavenly Punishment Hall, a lazy voice asked with some curiosity.
An outer disciple, using his mind to control a sword, severed both arms of a true master with supernatural abilities; he's truly lived to see something extraordinary.
"Fang Han," Jin Shitai said honestly.
He has already sent someone to inquire about this person's real name from the outer sect assessment elders.
"It's Fang Han again! This person actually possesses the Seven Fiends Gourd, a demonic treasure. He's probably a spy planted in our Feathered Ascension Sect by the Demon God Sect! Elder Tianxing, I request a thorough investigation into this person's background! I also hope that Junior Sister Fang can prove her innocence. After all, Junior Sister Fang and the Demon Commander exchanged supernatural powers and techniques, and now she's taken in a disciple who is suspected to be an outstanding disciple of the Demon God Sect. Where does this leave the sect rules?"
Hua Tiandu said coldly.
Looking at Fang Qingxue, his gaze was arrogant yet mocking.
"Interesting! Hua Tiandu, you probably wouldn't believe it, but the Seven Fiends Gourd in Fang Han's hands was something I snatched from that 'Little Heavenly Wolf True Man' Wang Molin. As for Jin Shitai, he had both arms severed by Fang Han because he tried to attack me. Fang Han grew up in my Fang family since childhood, when did he become an outstanding disciple of the Demon God Sect? Hua Tiandu, you're so adept at presenting lies as truth, you truly deserve to be called the number one true disciple of my Feathered Ascension Sect!"
Fang Qingxue smiled, but every word she spoke was laced with venom.
"Since both of these matters are related to that disciple named 'Fang Han,' Hua Tiandu and Fang Qingxue, you two should bring all the parties involved in these two matters here. I will personally handle this matter and will not let any treacherous person get away with it!"
The lazy voice gradually turned serious as it spoke.
"promise!"
"Yes, Elder."
"this......"
As Hua Tiandu and Fang Qingxue left, Jin Shitai felt a strange sense of unease.
After leaving the Inner Immortal Academy, Fang Han arrived at Purple Lightning Peak, intending to tell Fang Qingxue the good news that he had obtained the qualification for the inner sect assessment. However, Fang Qiang told him that Fang Qingxue had not yet returned. Just as he was about to go down the mountain, he happened to meet Fang Qingxue.
"Fang Han, Elder Tianxing of the sect wants to verify your merits, and Jinshitai has also accused Elder Tianxing of your behavior. Next, you need to confront these people."
Fang Qingxue said succinctly.
"Haha! That would be perfect."
Fang Han smiled.
"Okay, let's go."
Seeing that Fang Han was confident and showed no fear, Fang Qingxue nodded.
It was worth it for me to do my best to protect Elder Tianxing.
The two then led each other to the plaza outside the Heavenly Punishment Hall of the "Feathered Heaven Palace".
At this moment, besides a Taoist priest in blue robes, there were also Yuan Jiankong, Senior Sister Mo, Liu Kang, Princess Hongyi, and others in the square. There was also an old Taoist priest from Jinshitai who looked five or six parts similar to him.
Upon seeing these people, Fang Han immediately understood everything.
A cold smile involuntarily appeared on his face.
