Yan Lie said solemnly. The true cruelty of the Cultivation is never as simple as just you killing me and me to kill you. Many people spend their entire lives to the point where they are unable to even reach the Aurous Core stage.

In addition to the differences in resources, there were also differences in talent.

The Great Clan Elder had already reached the Nascent Soul stage in less than five hundred years, while Yan Lie himself had already reached the Jindan Stage at a young age. From the Jindan Stage to the current Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul, he had only spent less than two hundred years.

But Lin Xiao?

From the looks of it, he was only in his early twenties. Even after reaching the Aurous Core stage, due to the growth of his lifespan, his appearance would remain the same as before. Even so, he had already reached the Aurous Core stage at the age of twenty.

In addition to Yan Lie's previous research, he realized that half a month ago, within the boundaries of Cloud City, no one had heard of Lin Xiao. Not long ago, because both Po Tianhou and his daughter were kidnapped, Lin Xiao's achievements had only just begun.

In other words, from the early stage of Foundation Establishment to the early period of Golden Pill Stage, Lin Xiao had only used less than ten days to advance a single level.

Such a speed of growth, forget about Great Clan Elder, even Yan Lie was shocked.

"Fortunately, he's dead now."

As Yan Lie said this, his face revealed a smile, and he recalled the terrifying ray of light that was emitting a deathly Qi above Hundred Flowers Palace, he was extremely afraid, if not for the fact that his body was destroyed in that moment, he would have given up on his physical body and forcefully left his Nascent Soul, and would have been reincarnated by now.

The Head Elder also smiled. The wrinkles on his face were much more than usual. However, it could be seen that his smile was from the bottom of his heart. He also sighed and said, "Therefore, all of this is worth it."

Pausing for a moment, he then asked, "Oh right, what about this woman?"

Yan Lie also looked at the lady who was going crazy, and suddenly felt a headache: "Those disciples of the Hundred Flowers Palace, you have been interrogating them recently, have you asked about any news?"

"Nope." There was a sense of disappointment in the Great Clan Elder's tone, and he said: "Those people, are not all loyal to the Hundred Flowers Palace, many people even betrayed their own parents in order to live, let alone Ji Baihua, who is only their Palace Master. Even so, after interrogating at least a thousand people, no one has heard of that secret technique."

"Hmph, since that is the case, there is no need to let them continue to exist. After this matter is over, kill them all. My Ghost Shadow Sect is not a charity, raising them for so many days is simply a waste of resources."

Yan Lie snorted as he looked in the direction of Ji Baihua, his gaze turning serious, "Also, this woman, I had originally wanted to try and see if she could break through the shackles of our sect in one go. Now, even I suspect that she herself knows of the secret technique and has killed so many of our disciples, so... Don't keep it. "

The death of Luo Sheng before was enough to allow Yan Lie to raise the entire strength of the Ghost Shadow Sect to seek justice. Among these, there was the fact that Third Elder Luo Xing's strength was indispensable to the Ghastly Shadows, but there was also another reason.

One of the reasons that only he and the Great Clan Elder knew was that it was the secret history of the Hundred Flowers Palace from a thousand years ago.

But after so many days of interrogation, out of the thousand plus Hundred Flowers Palace disciples, not a single one of them knew about the existence of this secret method, nor had they heard about what happened that year.

This caused Yan Lie to faintly have the thought of giving up. Adding to the fact that Ji Baihua had already killed all his disciples, from Ghost Shadow Sect to ordinary disciples, and even to the Third Elder, this made him have no choice but to reconsider the value of this plan.

Whether or not Ji Baihua knew about this secret technique was unknown, but they all knew that if he was still kept alive in this situation, there would definitely be chaos in Ghost Shadow Sect.

Rumors would spread quickly like a plague. Once he, the Sect Leader, lost his prestige in the sect, it would not be a good sign for the future of the entire Ghost Shadow Sect.

After thinking about it, even if he had an opportunity to break through to the Spirit Transformation Stage, Yan Lie had no choice but to give up on it for the sake of Ghost Shadow Sect's future.

The Great Clan Elder looked at him deeply, and didn't say anything more. The space in front of him that was enveloped by the Golden Dragon had already started to show signs of collapsing, and he knew just how difficult it was for Yan Lie to make this decision.

He then instructed the remaining five elders, "Everyone attack together. The elders follow me and surround Ji Baihua. The deacons will support them from the surroundings, and the rest of the disciples will immediately retreat, lest they make unnecessary sacrifices."

"Yes sir!"

The disciples that surrounded Ji Baihua immediately retreated. The current Ji Baihua was already like a Deicide. No matter who was in front of her, as long as they were people, they would not be able to escape death.

All the disciples were already afraid of being killed, and now that they finally received the order to retreat, they naturally did not have any doubts.

"Attack!"

As the Grand Elder gave the order, the space that was wrapped up by the enormous golden dragon immediately dispersed. Immediately, the six Elders of the First Elder each took a position and surrounded Ji Baihua from all directions.

However, even in such a dangerous situation, Ji Baihua was not aware of it. The space that was wrapped up by the Golden Dragon shattered, revealing the original appearance of the inside. She immediately rushed over, only to discover that there was nothing inside.

Not to mention Lin Xiao, even a piece of his clothing wasn't left behind.

"You … Is he dead? "

She muttered as she lowered her head, her entire body seemingly frozen in place. As she stood there, her aura gradually weakened and at this moment, she had actually kept all her cultivation. In the face of the encirclement of six Infant Stage experts, she did not put up any defense.

"Right now!"

The Great Elder let out another shout and his entire body shot forward like a meteor. A dazzling golden light shone from his body as he charged straight towards Ji Baihua.

"Kill!"

The other five Elders also took out their magic treasures and surrounded Ji Baihua.

BOOM!

In the blink of an eye, the first person to act, the Great Elder, had already arrived at Ji Baihua's location. With a loud bang, dust flew everywhere and instantly covered the entire area.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The attacks of the remaining five elders also arrived in the next instant, instantly enlarging the scope of the dust by more than ten times. Even the place where Yan Lie was standing, was covered.

Some of them were caught off guard and directly fell to the ground, causing even the surrounding people to suffer. Originally, this kind of Nascent Soul stage battle was not something they could handle, but after being hit by someone's attack, they directly fell to the ground.

In just a short moment, a large portion of Ghost Shadow Sect's several thousand disciples had fallen.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The roar continued. Everyone nervously looked at the center of the dust cloud. Even if they couldn't see anything, it didn't stop them from shouting in their hearts, "It's over!"

The battle had indeed ended very quickly. As the dust settled, the figures of the five Elders could be seen. Everyone let out a sigh of relief.

The battle had already ended and the six elders, including the Great Elder, seemed to be unharmed. In that case, that murderous demon from before should have already died, right?

But among these people, Yan Lie was not one of them.

His cultivation was currently the highest on the battlefield. Although he could not see through the battle through the dust with his naked eye, the spiritual sense had already entered, so other than the five elders, he was the one who was the most clear on the battle situation.

Was Ji Baihua dead?

Of course not, that was why Yan Lie's face appeared abnormally dark and gloomy.

The smile on those Ghost Shadow Sect disciples who thought that Ji Baihua was dead immediately stiffened and their emotions became complicated. Following that, endless terror struck them.

In the center of the circle formed by the six elders, there was a faint, semi-transparent light blue screen that was emitting a chilling aura, completely enveloping Ji Baihua. She was still in her original dazed state, but she did not seem to have suffered any injuries.

In other words, the combined attacks of the six elders from before had no effect at all.

"What magic treasure is this?"

Some people noticed that on top of Ji Baihua's head, a transparent, crystal-like lotus was slowly rotating. Every time it rotated, a circle of faint blue light would emit from it, and then spread into the light curtain below.

One round after another, it looked extremely gorgeous.

However, after seeing the Crystal Lotus, Yan Lie's face instantly turned pale white, and his eyes revealed inexhaustible fear.

"It's the Lotus movement in all directions! Retreat, quickly retreat!"

He cried out in surprise, and at the same time, retreated with great speed, unleashing the strength of his Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul. The countless surrounding Ghost Shadow Sect disciples turned into a pool of blood from the sudden explosion, but he did not notice that, and continued to retreat at an extremely fast speed, leaving behind a trail of bright red blood.

No one heard that while he was retreating, he was still using a trembling, incredulous voice to mutter to himself, "Didn't this treasure already get lost? Why would it appear on her body? Could it be … "Could it be …"

His exclamation contained all of his cultivation. It was so shocking that everyone could hear it, including the six elders who were besieging Ji Baihua.

Many people had died on the spot because they could not hold on.

Even the six middle Nascent Soul stage Elders could feel the blood and Qi in their chests surging, causing their cultivation bases to waver.

However, no one understood why the usually stable Sect Leader would let out such a tragic cry filled with despair at this time.

The Great Clan Elder was the first to notice the despair in Yan Lie's voice. Thus, after hearing the sorrowful cry, he retreated without hesitation and distanced himself from Ji Baihua as fast as Yan Lie.

As for the remaining five elders, because their strength was not sufficient, they were shaken by Yan Lie's explosive shout and hesitated for a moment.

However, this moment of hesitation had instantly determined their fate.

Swish!

A light, almost inaudible sound came from Ji Baihua's body, or perhaps from the light screen that enveloped her body. Under everyone's bewildered gazes, the five elders that surrounded her before they could do anything immediately turned into ice sculptures.

"AHH!"

It was only then that the conscious people realized that the Great Elder had already retreated to a distance thirty meters away from Ji Baihua. Even so, his face was still filled with pain because one of his legs had been cut off.

And the weapon that could cut off that leg was a normal long sword that was currently grasped in Ghost Shadow Sect's hands.

Only now did people realize that not a single person within 100 feet of Ji Baihua was still alive. At some point, the ground had been covered by a cold aura, causing all of the disciples within 100 feet of Ji Baihua to turn into ice sculptures.

Not only the person, even the flowers and trees on the ground were all sealed in ice.

And roughly taking a look, more than half of the Ghost Shadow Sect disciples within these thirty meters were actually!

With one move, the ice was sealed by 100 feet, and thousands of corpses were butchered!
