"Bang bang bang..."

As Zhu Chen raised his hand and clenched his fist, a series of muffled explosions suddenly erupted in the void.

Suddenly, the soul blood of those cultivators exploded, turning into clouds of blood mist.

At the same time, their bodies lost all life, falling straight down from the sky like kites with broken strings.

The entire room fell into a deathly silence.

Those cultivators who had already chosen to submit were all ashen-faced, their backs drenched in cold sweat.

Looking at their fallen 'comrades,' they couldn't help but feel a surge of relief at surviving such a disaster.

If they had hesitated even a moment longer, they would probably be dead by now.

"Gurgle..."

Some people swallowed hard, and when they looked at Zhu Chen again, their eyes were full of awe.

This person may seem harmless, but he is absolutely ruthless!

"Brother, your methods are brilliant."

Seeing this scene, Han Li immediately understood Zhu Chen's intention.

These cultivators were brought by the Six Paths Supreme Saint after all. If they were all kept, it would be hard to guarantee that none of them harbored malicious intentions.

By killing some and sparing others, we have both established our authority and provided a way out.

Those who survived witnessed the death of their companions and were only grateful for their choice. How could they dare to have any disloyal thoughts?
There is no better way to deter others than this.

……

"The souls and blood of these people are now yours."

Zhu Chen casually waved his hand and decisively sent all the remaining soul blood to Madam Fan.

Madam Fan was flattered and quickly accepted the gift with both hands. Then, she solemnly clasped her hands in a fist and bowed to Zhu Chen, saying, "Thank you, senior. I will keep it safe and will never fail your and the sect leader's trust!"

Zhu Chen waved his hand, indicating that she didn't need to be so polite.

Madam Fan turned around and faced the cultivators who had submitted to her, saying coldly, "From this day forward, you are all affiliated forces of my Miaoyin Sect. As long as you sincerely stay in the Miaoyin Sect, I will never treat you unfairly."

"Yes... I will obey Madam Fan's orders..."

The cultivators all bowed their heads in agreement, and no one dared to raise any further objections.

After dealing with these trivial matters, Zhu Chen turned to Zi Ling and casually asked, "By the way, Zi Ling, have you heard anything about Yuan Yao lately?"

Zi Ling nodded: "Sister Yuan Yao is now in my Miao Yin Sect."

Zhu Chen was slightly taken aback, then his face lit up with joy: "I didn't expect her to actually come to your Miaoyin Sect?"

Zi Ling asked with a surprised look, "Didn't you tell her to come find me?"

Zhu Chen smiled calmly: "That's true, but I didn't expect her to be so obedient. By the way, your Miaoyin Sect was besieged by the Six Paths Supreme Saints. Why didn't Yuan Yao come forward to help with such a major event?"

Zi Ling explained, "Sister Yuan Yao is preparing for a big event and needs a safe place to go into seclusion. She told me before that no one should disturb her, even if the sky were to fall."

"event?"

Zhu Chen raised an eyebrow: "What important matter?"

Zi Ling hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "Sister Yuan Yao has been researching a resurrection technique; it seems she wants to revive her senior sister."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Chen suddenly realized what was going on.

He naturally knew about Yuan Yao's past.

Reviving her senior sister has always been Yuan Yao's greatest obsession.

Over the years, she has traveled far and wide, searching for various ancient books and secret techniques, all in the hope that one day she can bring her senior sister back to life.

Where is she now?

Zhu Chen continued to ask Zi Ling.

Zi Ling pointed towards the back mountain of Miaoyin Sect: "It's right there on the back mountain..."

"--boom!!!"

Before Zi Ling could finish speaking, a deafening roar came from the back mountain! Immediately afterward, a dazzling beam of light, like a sword drawn from its sheath, shot up from the back mountain and soared into the sky.

"This is……"

Zi Ling's expression changed drastically, and she exclaimed in alarm, "Oh no! It's Sister Yuan Yao's place! Something's happened to her!"

Before Zi Ling could finish speaking, Zhu Chen moved and disappeared from the spot.

When it reappears.

He was already standing above the back mountain of Miaoyin Gate.

Looking down, one could see that what should have been a secret room was now a pile of ruins.

Amidst the rubble, a black figure hovered in mid-air, surrounded by an eerie light and its aura was chaotic.

It was Yuan Yao.

At this moment, Yuan Yao's face was as pale as paper, and large beads of sweat were constantly sliding down her forehead.

The light surrounding her flickered, sometimes as intense as fire, sometimes as dim as a candle, as if it might be extinguished at any moment.

Even more terrifying, some strange power was surging within the hole in the sky that the beam of light had pierced, as if it wanted to descend into this world through that gap!

However, Zhu Chen did not pay attention to these things at the moment.

Because there is currently another soul beside Yuan Yao that is being drawn by a divine tree, constantly emitting a faint light.

That was her senior sister's soul.

That sacred tree should be the Soul-Nourishing Tree used to nourish the soul!

Zhu Chen knew that Yuan Yao was currently reviving his senior sister.

It's not appropriate for outsiders to interfere in this kind of matter!

Even he is the same.

After all, he didn't know much about the secret technique of resurrection.

Whether Yuan Yao can revive her senior sister now depends entirely on Yuan Yao herself.

All he can do right now is stay here and protect her.

Zhu Chen could sense that two completely opposite forces were fiercely clashing within Yuan Yao's body.

One is the power of life, and the other is the power of death.

These two forces are intertwined and are tearing her apart wildly through her meridians, dantian, and even her soul!

"Is this... the backlash from the Resurrection Technique?"

Zhu Chen instantly understood.

Yuan Yao is forcibly using the Resurrection Technique in an attempt to revive her senior sister.

However, her cultivation level was clearly insufficient to support such a heaven-defying technique, causing the technique to go out of control, the yin and yang to become unbalanced, and backfire on herself!

If this continues, not only will she be unable to save her senior sister, but she herself will also be torn to pieces by this backlash!
"Yuan Yao, wake up!"

Zhu Chen whispered, his voice containing a trace of divine power, attempting to awaken Yuan Yao's consciousness.

Yuan Yao's eyelids trembled slightly, but she did not open them.

She seemed to be in some kind of deep coma or obsession, with extremely weak perception of the outside world.

The hole in the sky grew larger and larger, and the eerie power grew stronger and stronger.

Zhu Chen's gaze sharpened; he knew he couldn't delay any longer.

He took a deep breath and held back no longer. The divine power within him surged forth like a river bursting its banks, transforming into a golden light shield that enveloped Yuan Yao and her senior sister's soul.

At the same time, with a thought, he connected with the cosmic cave within his body.

"--boom!!!"

A vast and boundless power of faith surged forth from the cave world, merging with his divine power and finally transforming into the purest life force, which was frantically injected into Yuan Yao's body!
