Chapter 385 The Allure of the Azure Sky Domain
The first physical cultivator of the Star Sea Continent, the Ancient God, died, but he gave rise to the even more powerful Demon Blade, Baili Yun.

Qi Ping looked at the Demon Blade Baili, whose aura was still gradually transforming, and was very satisfied.

This breakthrough, achieved before the arrival of a formidable enemy, will greatly benefit the upcoming battle.

Judging from the current situation, Baili Yun has a real chance to become a cultivator comparable to Meng Tianqi, who has comprehended the laws of life and death, and it is even possible that he could surpass him. However, there is still a gap between them at present.

However, Qi Ping was still very satisfied with the essence of the ancient god's Dao.

Before the essence of Dao in the space dissipated, Qi Ping directly intercepted what he could retain, and then quickly collected the corpses of the ancient gods, sealing all of these things with magic.

These are all valuable things that can be integrated into the Azure Sky Domain.

What Qi Ping regretted most was that Baili Yun and the Ancient God's breakthroughs did not occur in the Azure Sky Domain. Otherwise, the spirituality and vitality born from such breakthroughs that surpassed the limits could have allowed the Azure Sky Domain to absorb many good things.

Even though Qi Ping was watching from the sidelines, he still gained a lot of insights from the battle where these two pushed their limits.

That kind of willpower and the essence of immortality were truly astonishing.

Compared to the ancient gods, Huang Daoxing, who was also at the Void Refinement stage, performed exceptionally well, but was still far inferior to the ancient gods. Under the combined attack of Qi Ping and Meng Tianqi, he was quickly killed, and Qi Ping's trump card was not even forced to be revealed.

After killing the two, Qi Ping, Meng Tianqi, and the other eighteen people joined forces to wipe out the entire Huangdaoxing sect with a wide-range killing move.

With so many top experts joining forces, the entire sect was completely wiped out in a short period of time.
After quickly taking away the core items from the treasure vault and library, Qi Ping and the others went to the location of the spatial teleportation array and hurried to their next destination.

Now that the battle has begun, they must race against time to kill the core cultivators at the Void Refinement level. This way, when the news gets out and all the traitors gather together, they won't form a force that can oppose them.

After Qi Ping and the others had completely left, they gradually arrived at the outer perimeter of the Dao Shen Sect to watch.

The war happened too quickly and too suddenly. In just a short while, an earth-shattering battle broke out. The super demonic blade that blotted out the sky became a shocking scene that countless cultivators would never forget for the rest of their lives.

But the battle ended with incredible speed, with two Void Refinement cultivators dead! The Dao God Sect was annihilated!

Moreover, these two cultivators who had reached the Void Refinement stage were the renowned Gu Shen, the number one cultivator in Body Refinement, and the Supreme Elder of the Dao God Sect!
The sect that was destroyed was one of the top ten sects in the entire Star Sea Continent!

But this terrifying sect and its cultivators were wiped out in an instant!
"Heavens, the Dao God Sect has been wiped out? The two top Void Refinement cultivators, Gu Shen and Huang Daoxing, just died like that?"

"Did you see clearly who did it?"

"Is this the power of a top-tier cultivator? It's terrifying!"

Countless cultivators swallowed hard as they gazed at the utterly silent Dao Shen Sect headquarters.

The original Dao Shen Sect was the most prestigious sect on the Star Sea Continent!
But now, in just a moment, their entire family has been wiped out!

All life force within the sect vanished, and even most of the corpses disappeared, leaving only a patch of not-yet-dried blood and an empty encampment where the array had collapsed and the buildings had crumbled.
Who wouldn't feel terrified upon seeing such a bizarre scene? This scene was beyond almost everyone's comprehension.

What terrified them even more was that in the center of the Dao Shen Sect's headquarters, there stood numerous top-tier Nascent Soul bees with varying auras, sending chills down the spines of everyone who saw them.

Everyone could clearly sense that once the Spirit Bees made their move, they would surely die!

"It's Bee Daoist! Only Senior Bee can train spirit bees of this level!"

"And there's Baili Yun! That sky-covering demonic blade—besides Baili Yun, there's absolutely no one else on the Star Sea Continent who can wield it!"

"I just saw the shadow of Senior Meng Tianqi!"

"Not only them, but also Lin Yueqing from the Boundless Sect."

After gathering all the information from everyone present, they were shocked to discover that the destruction of the Divine Sect was actually caused by the combined efforts of the Bee Daoist and a group of the most elite sects on the Star Sea Continent!
"Why did they join forces to destroy the Dao God Sect? What exactly happened on the Star Sea Continent?"

"Yes, what exactly happened to bring so many big shots together?"

"The key is that you didn't notice, Senior Bee Daoist actually made a move as well. In the past, he would never initiate a war unless he provoked enemies of the Azure Sky Domain!"

"Even Senior Meng Tianqi has made a move. He's basically participated in all kinds of wars. If even he's come out, what on earth has happened?"

"Several other senior figures are also here. Could it be that a continental war is about to break out?"

The moment this guess was made, the entire world seemed to fall silent.

A continental-scale war!

What unfamiliar words! But apart from these words, there seems to be no other reason to explain what just happened.

Especially those few people who usually love peace the most have taken the initiative to start a war, which proves that there must be something that threatens these people, otherwise why would these big shots unite together?
Except for things that would involve the safety of the entire continent!

What could possibly affect the safety of so many bigwigs?

Those who thought of this immediately felt uneasy.

They know best what such a large-scale war means.

If they were treated like cattle and horses during peacetime, they didn't even have the chance to be treated like cattle and horses during wartime.

During wartime, without the rules and the protection of the strong, all the blood cultivators, demon cultivators, and tribulation cultivators who usually hide and restrain themselves will come out. They will plunder, kill, and refine all visible cultivators without any restraint!

Once targeted by these people, being robbed of their belongings is considered mild; anything more serious could cost them their lives, or even result in humiliation, skinning, torture, or murder, after which they are consumed and devoured by these individuals who have incited extreme negative desires and emotions.

These kinds of things are common in domain-level wars. In every domain-level war, the ones who die the most are never the cultivators on either side of the war.

Because reputable sects and cultivators, given relatively abundant resources and opportunities, generally wouldn't choose that blood-stained path, as the side effects are simply too great. On the contrary, ordinary cultivators hidden in the shadows, when faced with no other way out, often become exceptionally reckless.

Normally, with the upper-level sects keeping them in check, they would restrain themselves somewhat. However, during a domain-level war, when the upper-level sects are preoccupied with their own problems, countless demons and monsters would become extremely frenzied, and the cruelty they usually suppressed would be unleashed in that moment!
And in each domain-level war, the number of cultivators who die in this frenzy will reach a level far exceeding that of the war itself!

This is a bloody lesson learned from every domain-level war that has ever occurred on the Star Sea Continent.

This is the terrifying state of the cultivation world when order has been lost! It can absolutely be described as a living hell.

Similar to the mortal dynasties, it is said that when a dynasty prospers, the people suffer; when it falls, the people suffer. But at least there is still a relative chance of survival, and cannibalism only occurs in some of the more brutal wars.

However, in the cultivation world, cannibalism occurs in every war. From top to bottom, every level produces the most terrifying cannibals. The higher the cultivation level and the greater the talent of the cultivator, the more they resemble cannibals.
And this is merely a domain-level war!

If a continental war were to break out, plunging the entire Starsea Continent into chaos, without the Starsea Alliance's oversight, the level of chaos would be unimaginable to anyone.

Perhaps if that day really comes, the Star Sea Continent will instantly become the most terrifying hell on earth. At that moment, everyone may become an enemy, and no place will be safe!
The thought of what might happen caused many experienced and knowledgeable cultivators to tremble uncontrollably.
A sense of panic quickly spread among everyone, sweeping through the world in the blink of an eye!
At this moment, apart from a few ignorant fools, many experienced cultivators began to flee the area quickly, preparing their next survival plan!

If they don't make preparations, death will be the only outcome for them once the war breaks out.

At this moment, whether the Dao God Sect is destroyed or not is no longer so important. What we can do now is to prepare while searching for information about what will happen next!
After Feng Daoren, Meng Tianqu, Baili Yun and others destroyed the Dao Shen Sect, they left at such a terrifying speed without even having time to properly clean up their spoils. It was clear that they were rushing to kill the others as quickly as possible!
If even a force of this caliber has to act this way, then just how terrifying are their enemies? Could it be all the powerful beings on the Star Sea Continent besides these individuals? Or perhaps the most powerful of them all? In any case, whatever the outcome, the collapse of order is certain!
"What should we do? What should we do?"

This phrase began to pop into the minds of countless people.

"By the way, Senior Bee's Azure Sky Domain, it's said that even Nascent Soul cultivators have to stay there!"

"Yes, that's right there!"

At this moment, the charm of the Azure Sky Domain is once again on display!

Since becoming famous in the Azure Sky Domain, Feng Daoren has absorbed countless cultivators from the Star Sea Continent, from geniuses to low-level cultivators, almost all of them have been captured!
The key to Qingtian Domain's great appeal is not the free low-level cultivation techniques, but its stable and fair environment!

Over the years, the number of illegal killings that have occurred in the Azure Sky Domain can be counted on one hand. Any factors that threaten fairness and stability, even if they occasionally appear, are wiped out in an instant, and the same is true for the dominant Azure Origin Academy.

Such a place naturally attracts all restless monks!

It could be said that the more chaotic a place is, the more attractive it becomes!
In a short period of time, some knowledgeable cultivators began to sell off their own properties at bargain prices and then quickly head to the Azure Sky Domain with the resources!
Like a torrent, it began to gradually swirl and roll!
Qi Ping hadn't expected that, without any mobilization, some far-sighted cultivators had already begun preparations to travel to the Azure Sky Domain.

For Qi Ping and Qingtian Domain, these cultivators with enormous wealth are Qingtian Domain's greatest asset!

After Qi Ping and his men swiftly annihilated the Dao Shen Sect, they immediately rushed to their next destination.

Their second target location was Mingxiandao, which also had cultivators at the Void Refinement stage.

Like the ancient gods, Bai Yuan, the Supreme Ancestor of Mingxian Dao, was a body-refining cultivator. However, unlike the ancient gods, Bai Yuan cultivated a rare method of simultaneously refining the body and refining the qi. He was also a cultivator with five spiritual roots, and he cultivated the Five Elements Technique, which had the strongest foundation.

Although its physical strength is somewhat inferior to that of the ancient gods, its overall combat power and reputation are subtly superior.

To some extent, this person is a Void Refinement cultivator who is on par with Meng Tianqi!

Aside from the universally acknowledged number one Ji Qingyue, this person is a strong contender for the title of strongest cultivator.

Originally, Qi Ping, Meng Tianqi, and the others had listed this person as their second target after Ji Qingyue, because this person was too powerful and had to be killed before the rest of the group could gather.

However, after Little Tiger's calculations, it was decided to place them in the current order.

Fortunately, they acted quickly and blocked Bai Yuan at the sect's entrance.

Judging from their hurried manner, they were probably preparing to flee this place.

"What do you mean?"

Bai Yuan, a burly man in white armor, stared at Qi Ping and the others with an unfriendly expression.

Upon receiving news of the destruction of the Dao Shen Sect, he immediately realized the danger and felt that he might become the primary target of an attack. Therefore, he prepared to immediately conceal his whereabouts and wait for an opportunity to rendezvous at the Star Sea Alliance headquarters.

But he didn't expect this group of people to arrive so quickly!

At this moment, looking at Qi Ping, whose aura was inexplicable, as well as Meng Tianqi and Baili Yun, whose auras were clearly on another level, and the formation that was faintly connected, an extremely strong sense of unease rose in his heart.

Meng Tianqi glanced at Qi Ping, and seeing that he didn't intend to speak, he said:

"What do you mean? Since we're all old friends, let's not beat around the bush. Fellow Daoist Gu Shen and Fellow Daoist Huang Daoxing have already left. We've come to see you off!"

As he spoke, the formation led by him and Baili Yun quickly took shape.

"We're all old friends, why are you acting like this!" Bai Yuan said through gritted teeth.

"Fellow Daoist Bai, we both know what's going on, so there's no need to hide it, is there? I've told you before that you have too many ideas and shouldn't want everything."

"Just as body refinement and qi refinement cannot coexist, each choice comes with its own price. Each path occupies a core position. Since you have chosen betrayal, we cannot tolerate you."

Meng Tianqi said with some helplessness.

At the same time, Meng Tianqi gathered the laws of life and death in his palm, and the enormous power instantly bombarded the Mingxiandao formation. The terrifying power impact exploded instantly, and Bai Yuan, who was supporting the formation inside, actually groaned and spat out a mouthful of golden blood!

The ordinary disciples fared even worse, with many of their bodies exploding!
"How is this possible?" Bai Yuan stared at Meng Tianqi in horror.

"How can he be so strong?"
