Dual cultivation makes you stronger, everyone else is a prodigy, and I'm the only one slacking

At this moment, a terrifying power of the Heavenly Dao appeared in the sky within a radius of a thousand miles, causing people's souls to tremble.

The clouds quickly transformed into a massive, dark vortex.

With a deafening roar, giving no one time to react, a bolt of divine lightning as thick as an ancient branch, carrying a devastating karmic backlash, struck Cui Xiu's forehead without warning.

Upon hearing the sound, Yu Luoning suddenly opened her eyes.

As a result, the once radiant and eerily beautiful demon Cui Xiu was struck by a bolt of lightning and left charred and cracked.

His signature flowing black hair was now dry and curly, with wisps of black smoke even rising from his head, making him look utterly disheveled.

He was dressed in a purple robe, with only two loose pieces hanging from his waist.

It turns out that what happens in anime is real; no matter what kind of tribulations the protagonist goes through, his iron underpants are always welded to his body.

Yu Luoning admired her own composure; she even had the mind to joke around at this moment.

She blinked and stared blankly for three seconds.

Cui Xiu's body was still twitching with tiny arcs of electricity.

Yu Luoning inexplicably wanted to laugh, and finally couldn't hold it in any longer. She clutched her stomach and laughed so hard that tears streamed down her face.

The karmic retribution for the misfortune depicted in the painting "A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains" is indeed true.

Forcibly altering the feng shui of thousands of miles, who else will Heaven punish but you?

Haha, this bad luck came at just the right time.

This is truly a stroke of luck!

Show-off, keep showing off, bye-bye!

Yu Luoning laughed loudly, taking advantage of Cui Xiu's paralysis and the frantic surge of spiritual energy within her body, as she prepared to escape.

Suddenly, Yu Luoning stopped in her tracks, her beautiful eyes narrowing slightly.

As the saying goes, strike while the iron is hot.

With such a great opportunity right in front of us, how could we not skin him alive? We were so scared just now.

Yu Luoning condensed a ball of spiritual fire in his palm, intending to deliver a fatal blow, but was astonished to find that even though Cui Xiu was unconscious after being struck by the causal lightning, there were still divine patterns flowing on the surface of his body, making him exceptionally tough and impossible to damage internally.

That's true. Monsters like them will have their physical bodies strengthened once they reach a certain level of cultivation.

Since we can't kill him, we can't let this demon stay on the Eastern Treasure Continent.

Yu Luoning gritted her teeth. She didn't want to switch to a different continent, start a new account, and adapt to a new environment.

Since that's the case, why not send Cui Xiu to other continents?

Wait, what if Cui Xiu encounters the Cleaner?

Who won and who lost between the two sides?

Thinking of this, a ruthless glint flashed in Yu Luoning's eyes.

As the saying goes, if you're not ruthless enough on the path to immortality, you'll be on the path to a stable immortality once you stretch out your legs.

You must show absolutely no mercy to a man who wants to kill you.

She walked over and her hand expertly reached for Cui Xiu's muscular trousers.

Empty?

Strange, where exactly is he hiding his storage bag?

Yu Luoning's gaze sharpened as she noticed an antique-looking ring on Cui Xiu's index finger.

The fact that this ancient ring could survive the backlash of lightning tribulation means it must have a remarkable origin.

Without hesitation, Yu Luoning tore it off and put it into her spatial jade bracelet.

After successfully looting the bag, she frantically intertwined her hands to form hand seals, and a purple afterglow suddenly formed around Cui Xiu.

Space gradually distorted, and Cui Xiu's charred yet strong body slowly sank down.

At the moment the array shone brightly, it fell into the large lake connected by the spatial array.

The void closed, and all was calm.

Yu Luoning smiled and turned into a streak of light, disappearing into the horizon.

At the same time, Fengqi Town is facing an unprecedented crisis.

Led by Jiang Kun, the Northern Sword Alliance arrived in a grand and imposing manner, just as they had when they first descended upon Phoenix Perch Town, carrying a heavy killing intent.

In the sky, dark clouds churned, and the setting sun resembled blood.

The patriarchs of the Feng family, Feng Xichen and Feng Tianyuan, wore solemn expressions as they led the remaining elite disciples of their sect in a state of high alert.

Fortunately, the innocent residents of the town had already been secretly evacuated, and Fengqi Town is now a ghost town.

Even if this battle destroys houses and leaves the land in ruins, with the Feng family's century-old foundation, rebuilding the country will not be difficult as long as they can survive this calamity.

Although the losses were heavy, as Miss Yu said, as long as people are alive, there is hope.

However, this battle proved to be far more difficult than anticipated.

Although Feng Xichen was at the late stage of the Purple Mansion realm and the family head Feng Tianyuan was at the late stage of the Foundation Establishment realm, all the other elite disciples were at the Foundation Establishment or Qi Refining realm. Their strength was really not enough in front of the Northern Sword Alliance led by Jiang Kun.

Jiang Kun alone has already reached the early stage of the Golden Core realm. In this world, those at the Golden Core stage certainly have the right to be arrogant.

In the sky, Jiang Kun let out a sinister laugh.

He pressed his right hand down into the air, and a giant sword phantom, accompanied by a thunderous roar as it tore through the air, crashed straight down.

Feng Xichen had no choice but to endure it with his own body.

With a deafening roar, the shockwave shattered the surrounding houses into dust.

His face turned deathly pale, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. He fell heavily from the sky like a bird, crashing into a pile of ruins.

"Ancestor!" The surrounding Feng family disciples looked on with despair in their eyes as they watched this scene.

Jiang Kun stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at the people in the ruins.

He looked at Feng Xichen and sneered.

"Old man Feng, if you hand over that female cultivator, I might let you die with some dignity. Otherwise, your Purple Mansion Realm body will become good material for me to refine puppets."

Feng Xichen spat out a mouthful of blood, sneered, and completely ignored the other party.

Seeing this, Jiang Kun's expression darkened. "If you won't listen to reason, you'll have to suffer the consequences. Let's begin."

The previously interrupted evil formation began to glow with an eerie light once more.

At this moment, Fengqi Town was transformed into a living hell.

However, several dozen breaths passed, and the expected streams of living blood and crimson light generated by the massacre of the city did not appear.

Jiang Kun originally intended to use a magical artifact to trigger a blood sacrifice throughout the entire city.

The members of the Northern Sword Alliance were all confident.

But at this moment, the blood array looked completely empty, with no way to condense it.

Jiang Kun's smug face twisted into an uncharacteristic, unnatural smile.

Feng Xichen clutched his chest, a smug smile playing on his lips, and laughed heartily. "Didn't expect that, did you? You wanted to use the entire population of my Phoenix Perch Town as a sacrifice for the blood array, but unfortunately, the people in the city have already been evacuated. How can your bloodthirsty array possibly succeed?"

Jiang Kun was secretly shocked. He never imagined that the Feng family, whose fate was nearing its end, would have such extraordinary abilities, capable of moving all the people in an entire city overnight.

However, he quickly calmed himself down and laughed, "It doesn't matter. It's the same if I wipe out all of your Feng family members. After I've leveled this city, I'll go to your Feng family's main territory and every city under your Feng family's control. I'll slaughter them one by one, step by step, and see how long you can hide."

Feng Tianyuan silently walked to the old ancestor's side and helped him up.

The two men, covered in blood, looked at each other and saw in each other a magnanimous and composed attitude toward death.

The situation is now settled.

Even if only a drop of blood remains in the final battle, the spirit of the Feng family will never be broken.

Seeing that the two of them still looked calm and collected, Jiang Kun's anger intensified.

He stopped wasting words, his spiritual power surged, gathering the overwhelming pressure of a Golden Core cultivator, and it looked like he was about to annihilate the Feng family in one fell swoop.

Suddenly, the sky began to ripple, and a golden array appeared out of thin air.

Clearly, this is an extremely mysterious teleportation array.
