Shrouding the Sky: The System Arrived Thirty Years Early

A golden light of Buddha suddenly appeared, as vast and powerful as a boundless ocean. Luo Qianqiu's fist seemed to transform into a blazing sun, possessing overwhelming power.

At this moment, his whole body radiated a precious glow. His golden body was unlike flesh and blood, shining brightly as if it had just been forged in a divine furnace.

The middle-aged man's expression changed slightly. He felt a terrifying aura and dared not underestimate Luo Qianqiu any longer.

"boom!"

A surge of purple divine power erupted as he raised his right hand and struck out with tremendous force, the terrifying power causing the void to tremble.

The sky was torn apart as a giant purple hand descended from the air, each finger measuring ten feet in length, with purple lightning crackling and swirling between its palm and fingers.

This is a terrifying and destructive force. Wherever it goes, the void ripples like the surface of a lake, terrifying and surging!

Not only that, the giant purple hand continued to enlarge during its flight, eventually covering the entire sky, with a radius of over a hundred feet.

Lightning flashed and thunder roared, like a thundercloud completely enveloping Luo Qianqiu below.

"Fancy and flashy!" Luo Qianqiu scoffed, then soared into the sky like a rising sun, unstoppable!

"Boom!"

A violent collision erupted, the golden sun radiating golden flames that scorched the heavens and boiled the seas, shattering everything in its path. Purple lightning bolts crisscrossed, descending from the giant purple hand, relentlessly cleaving the sun in two.

Divine energy fluctuations permeated the air, and the clash of divine powers reached its peak in an instant.

The two immediately engaged in a fierce battle, unleashing their strongest secret techniques and divine power.

"What!" the middle-aged man exclaimed, his whole body trembling violently, his face filled with disbelief.

Because the golden sun was unstoppable and was burning away his divine power, the purple lightning, upon touching the sun, began to dissipate as a rain of light.

Such a situation is unimaginable. The Purple Mansion Scripture is mysterious and unpredictable, and is one of the strongest ancient scriptures on the Eastern Wilderness.

In the entire boundless Eastern Wilderness, only the Void Scripture of the Ji family, the Hengyu Scripture of the Jiang family, and the Western Emperor Scripture of Yaochi can truly surpass the Purple Mansion Scripture.

Besides, even the Yao Guang Jing of Yao Guang and the Wan Chu Jing of Wan Chu are only on par with the Zi Fu Jing, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Which one is stronger or weaker depends entirely on the cultivator.

At this moment, the middle-aged man had a clear feeling that the ancient scripture the other party was cultivating was incredibly powerful, even surpassing the Purple Mansion Scripture.

The thought startled even the middle-aged man. If it was more powerful than the Purple Mansion Scripture, then it must be an Emperor Scripture!

Before he could think any further, the golden sun had already burned away all the lightning and continued to rise against the sky, colliding with the purple hand.

Unsurprisingly, the purple giant hand was also shattered, with a huge hole burned in the middle. The sun's power remained undiminished, shining brightly in all directions.

The middle-aged man's expression changed drastically. His hands formed hand seals continuously, and a towering purple mist emanated from his body, resembling raging flames, transforming into a shield to block the way.

But the Great Sun Golden Flame is even more domineering, capable of burning everything in its path, and even the purple flames cannot compare.

"Ah..." With everything gone, the middle-aged man faced the golden flames of the great sun. The divine power around him dissipated, and he began to turn into charcoal.

However, the cultivators at the fifth level of the Dao Palace possessed astonishing vitality, managing to cling to life.

"You can't kill me. I am a steward of the Purple Mansion Holy Land. I am here on the orders of the candidate Holy Son. If you dare to kill me, you will be making an enemy of the candidate Holy Son and the Purple Mansion Holy Land." The middle-aged man was weak, but he still spoke with a fierce tone.

He wanted to use the Purple Mansion Holy Land to intimidate the other party, a tactic that had been very effective in the past.

Looking across the boundless Eastern Wilderness, apart from those who are also from holy lands and noble families, who would dare to offend the Purple Mansion Holy Land?

The middle-aged man thought that the young man in front of him would be intimidated and wouldn't dare to continue.

As expected, the golden sun dissipated, revealing a young figure.

"Don't worry, I won't hold this against you." The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to use his liver energy to heal his injuries.

But the next moment, a golden fist magnified in his vision and quickly took over the entire area.

"Pfft!"

Blood and brain matter splattered, and the middle-aged man's head was blown to pieces.

Luo Qianqiu withdrew his fist and muttered to himself, "You're overthinking it. I'm just afraid of destroying the things in your Bitter Sea and Dao Palace. Who wants to stop?"

The premise of killing and looting a corpse is that the corpse must still be alive. If it is smashed into a cloud of blood mist, then the things in the Bitter Sea and the Dao Palace will naturally be destroyed as well.

The Great Bright Fist is incredibly powerful, but it has one major drawback: once it hits someone, the opponent will almost certainly explode, and both the Bitter Sea and the Dao Palace will be destroyed along with it.

To be honest, the world of Shrouding the Heavens is not really suitable for killing and looting corpses, because the cultivators here have too much vitality.

Injuries like slits in the throat or being punched through the body are not fatal in the world of Shrouding the Heavens.

They can go all out, and the best outcome is being torn to pieces; the worst is not even leaving a single piece of flesh.

Unless one is in a position of absolute dominance like Luo Qianqiu, one can hold back at the end, only smashing the opponent's head without worrying about a counterattack.

Of course, this wouldn't work in Sendai either.

The cultivators of the Sendai have almost all their resources stored in the Sendai. To kill them, you must destroy the Sendai, but destroying the Sendai will also destroy the resources.

This is why very few people in the world of Shrouding the Heavens would loot corpses after a battle.

In the original novel, Ye Fan hardly ever touched a corpse because his fighting style was too domineering; enemies were often scattered in pieces or turned into a blood mist.

Luo Qianqiu moved with great skill and quickly found two jade bottles in the middle-aged man's Taoist palace.

One of them contained some precious medicines, which were quite valuable, while the other contained pure raw materials, weighing about 900 jin (approximately 400 kg).

"As expected of someone from a powerful family, they managed to acquire so many spoils of war." Luo Qianqiu was very satisfied with this.

"Sizzle!"

A divine rainbow streaked across the sky, and Lin Jia arrived beside Luo Qianqiu. Looking at the middle-aged man's corpse, she exclaimed in surprise, "You killed him without using the Vajra Pestle?"

That was a Dao Palace Fifth Heaven cultivator from the Purple Mansion Holy Land, whose combat power was extraordinary, but he was still easily killed by Luo Qianqiu.

Lin Jia was shocked. Although she knew that Luo Qianqiu was powerful, she never thought that he would be this powerful.

"Don't be surprised. Although the ancient scriptures I cultivate are extraordinary, it's not difficult to kill a Dao Palace Fifth Heaven cultivator who has exhausted his potential, at least not for me." Luo Qianqiu said calmly, not feeling that this was anything special.

"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle..."

Suddenly, several divine rainbows streaked across the sky, indicating that someone was rushing towards them, heading straight for Tianyu City.

Luo Qianqiu possessed powerful divine senses and saw those people from a great distance. He immediately grabbed Lin Jia's waist with one hand, stepped onto the lotus platform, and disappeared from the spot.

After about several dozen breaths, seven or eight figures arrived at the battlefield and saw the headless corpse lying on the ground.

"He's from Zifu Stone Workshop. How could he have died here?" Someone recognized the middle-aged man's identity based on his clothing and couldn't help but gasp.

Soon, the news reached Tianyu City, and everyone was shocked.

An official from the Purple Mansion Holy Land was killed! This is absolutely a sensational event.

Who is so audacious as to dare to attack the people of the Purple Mansion Holy Land?

Everyone was curious about this and wanted to know who had made the move.

Unfortunately, no one witnessed the battle, and naturally, no one knew the identity of the person who made the move.

But in the afternoon, another piece of news spread that someone had seen a deacon from the Purple Mansion Holy Land confronting a young man at the city gate, with the two sides locked in a tense standoff.

Once the news spread, it caused a sensation, and many people wanted to find that person to get to the bottom of things.

But before that, the Purple Mansion Holy Land took action first, taking the person away. Then, an hour later, two portraits were posted.

The Purple Mansion Holy Land has issued a kill order!

They were a man and a woman, both around twenty years old. The man was handsome and dashing, while the woman was graceful and ethereal, making even the most beautiful pearls pale in comparison.

The Zifu Stone Archway acted with incredible speed, identifying the murderers in just one hour, then drawing their portraits and making them public.

This time, unlike in Gu Feng City, the energy of the Purple Mansion Holy Land radiates throughout the entire Eastern Wilderness. Although this kill order did not cause a great sensation, it undoubtedly spread the word about Luo Qianqiu's appearance throughout the Eastern Wilderness.

……

In the Yan Kingdom, Ye Fan had just unearthed the hidden source from the Ziyang Cave Heaven and was preparing to find a place to break through to the Life Spring Realm.

But as he passed through a small town, he suddenly stopped and turned to look at the banner. There, two portraits were posted, and the people in them were none other than Luo Qianqiu and Lin Jia, whom he had not seen for more than a year.

The Xuan paper contained no information about the two people, not even their names, but it did mention the reason for their wanted status.

"He can actually kill a cultivator at the fifth level of the Dao Palace!" Ye Fan was extremely shocked.

They all came to Beidou together, and their cultivation time should be roughly the same. However, Luo Qianqiu is now able to kill people at the fifth level of the Dao Palace, while he is still stuck at the Bitter Sea Realm. The difference is like heaven and earth.

"I also need to work hard and break through to the Life Spring as soon as possible." After a long while, Ye Fan finally let out a long sigh and turned to leave.
