Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 1131 An Eye for an Eye (Two chapters, 10,000 words)

Somewhere on the edge of the immortal city, the burly man in brocade robes and the white-browed old monk exchanged a glance, both seeing the determination in each other's eyes.

The burly man in brocade robes suddenly turned fierce, his right hand turning a deep purple-red, magnified several times, and he slammed his palm into Gu Hanfeng's back not far away.

Gu Hanfeng reacted extremely quickly, forming a defensive hand seal resembling the Bagua (Eight Trigrams) as his robes billowed behind him. However, it was still directly shattered by the purplish-red giant palm of the brocade-clad man, whose power slammed into his back.

Gu Hanfeng spat out blood and was thrown forward.

"Ling Xianghu, how dare you!?" Gu Hanfeng was shocked and furious. He quickly activated an ancient pagoda in his hand and was about to attack the man in brocade robes.

At that moment, a string of prayer beads flashing with dazzling Buddhist light fell from the sky and tied him up around the waist.

Gu Hanfeng suddenly felt his magical power stagnate, and the pagoda he was about to activate dimmed its spiritual light.

"Mo Yan! You old bald monk, how dare you!" Before he finished speaking, the burly man in brocade robes and the white-browed old monk had already taken to the air and attacked him like fierce tigers.

Not only the two of them, but also a Nascent Soul cultivator with a square face and large ears nearby, who also summoned a black iron rod with a flash of his eyes. He flicked his right finger, and the iron rod made a series of whistling sounds as it smashed towards Gu Hanfeng.

This move immediately triggered a chain reaction. Those cultivators in the Immortal City who believed they had not done anything to wrong Ning Fa and his family launched a fierce attack on the Gu family, the Qian Yuan Merchant Alliance, and even the cultivators of the Taiqing Sect, the Wushi Demon Palace, and the Yuancha Sect.

These powerful cultivators are usually high and mighty, the ones who need to be flattered, but now, for the sake of their own lives, they don't care about such things at all.

The cultivators from the major opposing forces to Ningfa were struggling to resist while simultaneously cursing or pleading with him.

In an instant, hundreds of thousands of cultivators across the entire mountain range were caught in a chaotic battle.

The cultivators from the Gu family, the Qian Yuan Merchant Alliance, and several other major hostile forces were clearly at a disadvantage.

After all, their numbers were far fewer than those of other cultivators.

Watching this scene from the high platform, Ning Fa's smile deepened, but the murderous intent in his eyes intensified.

He glanced at the several large-scale battle groups in the Immortal City. They were the late-stage Grand Cultivators of the Gu Family, the Qian Yuan Merchant Alliance, and several other major forces gathered together to fight against others.

Despite being outnumbered, the battle raged on fiercely, with these people loudly trying to persuade their fellow Daoists, who usually fawned over them, to change their minds.

Ning Fa snorted, then looked at Fairy Linghua, You Yunzi, and the others, and said indifferently:

"If you all still have the strength, then join me in this fight."

Remember, capture them alive if possible; I don't want them to die so easily.

As he spoke, Ning Fa transformed into a streak of purple light and vanished instantly.

Shenxiao Dharma Image also threw the Ancient Venerable's clone and the Ancient Eagle on the ground, and then flew away as well.

The three Fairies of Linghua exchanged glances, all with wry smiles on their faces, but they dared not hesitate and immediately flew downwards.

Ning Fa charged into the battle group of powerful cultivators like a tiger among sheep.

Amidst flashes of purple lightning, he directly placed restrictions on the great cultivators from the ancient families, the Qian Yuan Merchant Alliance, the Tai Qing Sect, and the Wu Shi Demon Palace.

He didn't stop, however, and continued to rush towards the crowd further away.

During the previous soul search of Steward Liao, he memorized the appearances of almost all the important members of the Gu family.

Moreover, over the past month, he had ordered Steward Liao to find more detailed information on members of the ancient family, as well as information on other forces that had attacked the Ning family and Huayu Sect over the past hundred years, and to memorize it all.

Most of these people were in the mountains, and he didn't intend to let any of them go.

With the addition of Nascent Soul cultivators such as Ning Fa, the high-level cultivators from the Gu family and Qian Yuan Merchant Alliance within the Immortal City were quickly subdued. Apart from a few who died in battle, most of them were captured on the spot.

Without Ning Fa's instructions, the other Nascent Soul cultivators also flew towards the outer edge of the mountain range, attacking the ordinary Gu family and Qian Yuan Merchant Alliance cultivators.

The sounds of fighting that had been raging in the Qianyuan Mountains from the morning of the wedding until the third day finally subsided.

At this moment, this sacred cultivation ground in the human realm is now a scene of rivers of blood and corpses strewn across the land.

Inside the mountains, on a vast plain spanning hundreds of miles, hundreds of thousands of cultivators were gathered.

The crowd surged forward, most of the cultivators covered in blood and wounds, their expressions a mixture of complex emotions and shock as they looked ahead.

In the very center of the plain, tens of thousands of cultivators were bound by chains of restriction.

These ancient family members, who were originally high and mighty and of superior status, now looked fearful and desperate, like lambs to the slaughter.

In these three days, of the original 80,000 members of the Gu family, about 20,000 died on the spot, and more than 50,000 were captured. They are all gathered here now.

Ahead of them lay a colossal pit, twenty miles in length and width, with an unfathomable depth.

The surface of the giant pit was covered with blood-red array patterns, and the flowing blood light emitted a sinister aura.

The cultivators from other nearby forces sensed this evil aura, and their faces all showed unnatural expressions.

They couldn't help but look at the figure floating in the air, their eyes filled with awe.

Clearly, that person was about to unleash a massacre, intending to bury and kill all the members of so many ancient families, and it wasn't just a simple slaughter.

Many knowledgeable cultivators recognized the purpose of the giant pit, which left them speechless with astonishment.

Ning Fa flew to the front of the group of ancient family members, where Gu Ying and Gu Zun's clone were kneeling.

Gu Ying was disheveled and had a ferocious expression; he was nowhere to be seen as the gentle and refined man he once was.

He roared, "Ningfa, are you really going to be so crazy as to try to kill so many members of my ancient family?"

By doing this, you will definitely leave a reputation for cruelty in human history!

This is during a fierce tribal war, and you are destroying your own Great Wall!

Moreover, our ancient family members are scattered throughout the human realm and various cultivation worlds. Can you kill them all?
When the Ancestor returns, it will be your end!

The Ancient Venerable's clone also took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Ning Fa, the number of Gu family members who have died at your hands in the past few days is already enough, far exceeding the number of members lost by your Ning family. Your anger should have subsided by now."

Now let's shake hands and make peace. Although you are strong, my true strength is beyond your imagination. Moreover, he has had another fortuitous encounter in Mitian Valley. Once he comes out, his strength will probably be comparable to a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

If you are still worried, we can swear a blood oath by the Great Cang Dynasty, and as compensation, we can even cede half of the Gu family's wealth and assets to you.

Those cultivators who were not from the Gu family immediately froze upon hearing this.

If Ning Fazhen agrees, they will be in an awkward situation.

But as soon as Ning Fa raised his right hand, two crisp "snap" sounds rang out, and Gu Ying and Gu Zun's clones immediately let out miserable screams, their mouths full of teeth flying out, and half of their faces swelling up high.

Ning Fa looked at Gu Ying and said with a sinister smile, "I know your Gu family has a lot of people, but don't worry, with the blood of these tens of thousands of elite members of the Gu family, we might be able to refine a Bloodline Pearl of the Spirit Treasure level."

In this way, as long as you have the bloodline of the Gu family, no matter where you hide, I will be able to find you.

I have no intention of letting any member of your Gu family live in the world.

Upon hearing Ning Fa's extremely cold words, Gu Ying's face turned deathly pale. The faces of the Gu family members behind him also changed drastically, looking at Ning Fa as if they had seen a demon.

The surrounding cultivators were also in an uproar, their expressions filled with shock.

Although some people already had their suspicions, they still couldn't help but swallow hard and feel fear when they heard that Ning Fazhen intended to do so.

At this moment, Ning Fa looked up at the sky and saw a streak of light flying towards him. It quickly landed in front of him, revealing the figures of seventy or eighty cultivators.

The leaders were Ning Zhongyuan, Ning Zhongjiu, Ning Hongye, Ning An, and other members of the Ning family. The other members of the Ning family were rescued by Hei Yu, whom Ning Fa had sent to another place of imprisonment at the beginning of the wedding.

Many members of the Ning family trembled and tears streamed down their faces when they saw this scene, especially the group of ancient family members who were bound like lambs to the slaughter.

The painful moment a century ago tormented them, and now that the moment of revenge has finally arrived, they are overwhelmed with emotion.

"Little Fa, well done! The spirits of those fallen clansmen will be pleased." Ning Zhongyuan said, tears streaming down his face.

The other members of the Ning family were also weeping.

A look of pain flashed in Ning Fa's eyes, which was then replaced by a cold killing intent as he raised his right hand.

Instantly, dozens of Nascent Soul cultivators flew out from the crowd.

These were the cultivators who had performed the best during the previous siege of the Gu family and the Qian Yuan Merchant Alliance. Now, acting as enforcers, they began to push members of the Gu family one by one into the giant pit.

Screams echoed through the giant pit. Before long, all 50,000 members of the ancient family had been pushed into the pit, almost filling it to the brim.

Ning Fa handed a blood-red triangular token to Ning Zhongyuan and said in a deep voice, "Elder, you should do it yourself."

Ning Zhongyuan took the token with trembling hands, and those images etched into his bones resurfaced in his mind, his face full of pain.

His magical power surged towards the token, causing it to glow with a blood-red light. A blood-red skull emerged from the token, roared, and then slowly disappeared.

Immediately, the crimson patterns on the surface of the giant pit began to glow with a bright crimson light, and sharp, knife-like crimson light surged out from it.

The moment those members of the ancient families were touched by the blood-red light, their bodies were instantly cut open, and blood flowed out.

Soon, the blood in the giant pit accumulated into a lake, which rose rapidly, and strange blood-colored runes flickered within it.

Those members of the ancient families who touched the runes seemed to be subjected to extreme torture, struggling with ferocious expressions as they watched helplessly as their bodies rapidly corroded into bones.

Seeing this tragic scene, hundreds of thousands of cultivators on the plains fell silent, many swallowing hard, their hearts pounding.

Ning Fa stood with his hands behind his back, coldly watching all of this.

Beside him, Gu Ying and Gu Zun's clone remained kneeling on the ground, their eyes blazing with fury as they watched the scene, their mouths agape as if they wanted to roar and curse, but no sound came out. Ning Fa looked at Gu Zun's clone and sneered, "Although I haven't created any clones, I know that many clone techniques share a common ability."

That was the scene the clone saw before it died, a scene that the main body could sense.

Upon hearing this, the already ailing Ancient Venerable clone suddenly shuddered and looked at Ning Fa with a look of fear.

Ning Fa kicked him into the air, a cold glint in his eyes, and his right fist crackled with dazzling purple lightning as he unleashed a powerful punch.

Immediately, amidst a terrifying halo of lightning, the body of the Ancient Venerable's clone exploded and melted directly in the surging lightning.

Meanwhile, in a mysterious place some unknown distance away, a agonizing roar that ripped through the sky echoed and lingered for a long time.

Several hours later, the giant pit had completely turned into a blood lake, exuding a pungent stench of blood, with countless white bones floating in it.

Tens of thousands of members of the ancient family were reduced to ashes.

Eerie crimson light began to flash in the blood lake, enveloping the entire lake.

After another half day, the bloody light dissipated, and the blood lake in the giant pit had disappeared completely. A blood-black sphere floated in the air, and countless struggling and twisting human figures seemed to be writhing on its surface.

Immediately, the bead transformed into a streak of blood-red light and flew to Ning Fa's side.

Ning Fa held it in his hand and activated it slightly. The round bead immediately shot out streams of blood energy, which disappeared into the void and flew to the infinite distance.

Ningfa instantly sensed that numerous close connections were scattered in various places, at extremely long distances.

Ning Fa's lips curled up: "With so many members of ancient families, and a considerable number of them being high-level cultivators, the Bloodline Pearls they refine are indeed extraordinary."

With this pearl, one can sense all the ancient family members who have been separated from their families, so there's no need to worry about any escaping.

Gu Ying collapsed to the ground, his expression contorted with rage and extreme pain.

But when he thought about his future fate, his expression froze, and boundless fear engulfed him.

He wanted to commit suicide, but he was unable to do so due to the restrictions imposed on him.

At this moment, Ning Fa, holding the Bloodline Pearl, flashed to another location.

There were Fairy Linghua, Youyunzi, and Wangque Sanren.

The three of them looked at him with a mixture of helplessness and fear.

Prior to this, Ning Fa had used powerful spiritual techniques, similar to soul searching, to confirm that the three of them had indeed not harmed him or the Ning family, which was why they had been able to live peacefully until now.

Now, they are also completely intimidated by Ning Fa's powerful strength and ruthless methods.

Ning Fa clenched his right hand suddenly, and the Bloodline Bead split into four pieces in a burst of bloody light. Three of them flew to the three of them, and he said in a chilling voice:
"Fellow Daoists, I'd like to trouble you to go through this trouble again. Use this Bloodline Pearl to track down those remnants of the ancient families."

I just sensed that there should still be 89,000 members of ancient families with spiritual roots wandering outside.

I hope that within ten years, all these members of the Gu family will be brought to justice, alive or dead.

It would be time-consuming and laborious for him to capture all the members of the ancient families all by himself, and time is of the essence now.

After dealing with things here, he needs to return to Kowloon immediately.

The sea creatures are making a big move, and he has to intervene to stop them and replenish his source points.

In addition, he also wanted to avenge the Tian Shu Alliance.

The three Nascent Soul cultivators immediately frowned deeply.

Fairy Linghua said tactfully, "Fellow Daoist Ning, you may not know the current situation."

The sea creatures are about to make a big move; we were originally planning to take action after this wedding.

Then, Fairy Linghua recounted the story about the sea creatures that she had told earlier.

Ning Fa's eyes flickered after hearing this, and after confirming it with the information he had received from Su Wanwan, he realized that the sea race was planning to set up a boundary-transfer array.

He immediately interrupted Fairy Linghua: "I will handle things with the sea tribe. From now on, you only need to be responsible for this matter."

Upon hearing this, the three looked at each other in bewilderment.

You Yunzi was the first to grab the Bloodline Bead, and the other two followed suit without hesitation.

"Fellow Daoist Ning, what should we do about the mortal bloodline of the Gu family?" You Yunzi asked in a deep voice.

"Kill them all," Ning Fa said coldly, his expression unchanged.

Upon hearing this, You Yunzi and the other two trembled, secretly lamenting that doing so would incur a terrible sin.

People like Wangque Sanren and Linghua Fairy were filled with regret, regretting why they had come to attend this wedding.

At this moment, Ning Fa flipped his right hand expressionlessly, and a round moon, a few inches in size, appeared amidst the floating white light.

The full moon suddenly split into three and disappeared into the three people's bodies at an extremely fast speed.

The three of them immediately changed their expressions.

Wangque Sanren looked rather grim and asked, "Fellow Daoist Ning, what do you mean by this?"

Ning Fa chuckled, his voice laced with threat:
"Don't worry, this is just a special mark on my soul. It won't harm you. I'm just doing this as a precaution."

After all, these Bloodline Pearls are not easy to make, and I'm counting on them to wipe out the Gu family in one fell swoop. So the three of you have a heavy burden on your shoulders. Don't let me down.

"Once I have the time, I will also go and check on those cultivation worlds one by one."

Upon hearing this, the three felt a chill run down their spines.

"Rest assured, Fellow Daoist Ning, we will do our best." At this moment, You Yunzi responded quite readily.

Wangque Sanren and Linghua Xianzi also expressed their opinions.

Ning Fa smiled again: "In that case, the three of you should set off quickly. After this matter, you will gain my friendship. I have always been very generous to my friends."

These words eased the tension in the three of them.

Given Ning Fa's current strength, there is absolutely no arrogance in his words; it is truly rare to gain his friendship.

Immediately, the three of them clasped their fists at Ning Fayi, transformed into streaks of light, and flew away.

Before leaving, You Yunzi glanced at Wang Min not far away, whispered a few words to her, and looked encouraging in her eyes.

Watching the three disappear into the distance, Ning Fa turned around and looked at Fairy Wanlan, whose face was full of complicated emotions.

Beside Fairy Wanlan was Ji Lianxing, dressed in a black dress.

Ji Lianxing said anxiously, "Young Master, my master and I have never done anything to wrong you or the Ning family!"
Especially my master, who saved me when I was being hunted down and took me as his disciple.

In addition, some of your Huayu Sect and Ning family disciples and clansmen who fled abroad were secretly protected by your master, such as Fairy Bai Feng, Ning Xiuying, and Li Tiexiong.

These people would probably be dead long ago if they didn't have a master.

Ning Fa's expression was solemn.

Ji Lianxing's words were true; he had already searched Fairy Wanlan's soul before, and these things were indeed true.

The reason for this was a special whim of the Fairy Wanlan a hundred years ago, which led her to do these things in order to leave herself a way out.

In retrospect, her whim was remarkably accurate and indeed saved her life.

“Fellow Daoist Wanlan, I, Ningfa, have always been clear about my gratitude and grudges. Consider this a favor I owe you,” Ningfa said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, Ji Lianxing immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Fairy Wanlan said softly, "Fellow Daoist Ning, could you please refrain from massacring the Qian Yuan Merchant Alliance as well? Many members of the alliance did not participate in the persecution of your Ning family and Huayu Sect."

Ning Fa narrowed his eyes, a cold light flashing within them, and said coldly, "While I will not indiscriminately kill any cultivators of the Qian Yuan Merchant Alliance, I will not let go of anyone whose hands are stained with the blood of my Ning family."

I will verify the souls of all cultivators at the Core Formation stage and above within the Merchant Alliance.

Upon hearing this, Fairy Wanlan breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Ning Fa smiled faintly and said, "Fellow Daoist Wanlan, could you please go to Cangyuan for me? In addition to rescuing my Ning family members, could you also subdue all the cultivators from the Wushi Demon Palace, Taiqing Sect, Yuancha Sect, and other forces there?"

With your array formation skills, fellow Daoist, trapping them all should be a piece of cake.

"And please also deliver these pills to Layman Xuyuan for me."

As he spoke, Ning Fa took out three pill bottles and handed them to the woman. After a pause, he continued, "Of course, I won't let you make this trip for nothing."

I promise you here that after I kill the Ancient Venerable and obtain the "Qianming Qizhen" (a magical array for determining destiny) from him, I will give it to you.

He was, after all, indebted to Fairy Wanlan, so he couldn't resort to coercion and bribery like he had with Fairy Linghua and the others. However, paying the price of the "Qianming Qizhen" should be enough.

From his previous soul search of Fairy Wanlan, he learned that Fairy Wanlan joined the Qian Yuan Merchant Alliance because she was attracted by the ancient Venerable's classic array formation technique passed down from ancient times.

However, the ancient master never truly handed it over to her, only allowing her to briefly comprehend it at specific times each year.

A look of surprise immediately appeared on Fairy Wanlan's pretty face, and she said right away, "Alright, I will go immediately."
