Chapter 363: Chapter 181: Cutting Down the Mountain, Annihilation of a Clan (Seeking Monthly Ticket)_2

As he was speaking, suddenly a sword light zipped through his forehead, emerging from the back of his head, then curved gracefully, piercing into another servant’s temple, exiting from the other side, and then into another’s brow!

The short sword weaved rapidly through the corridor, drawing streak after streak of bloodlight, finally coming to a halt when it stabbed into a wooden pillar, the blood on the sword rushing toward the column.

Beneath the sword’s edge, blood slowly trickled down the pillar.

In the corridor, corpses slumped one by one, falling to the ground.

Not far away, in the Ksitigarbha Hall, a plump woman holding a whip pointed at the children prepared to go to the underworld and shouted, "No slacking off tonight! Anyone who doesn’t pick lotus flowers goes without dinner, no food tomorrow either, and will get whipped! Little Dianxiang has been whipped before!"

She shook the whip forcefully, making a sharp snap, driving the children out of the Ksitigarbha Hall and toward the altar.

They took a different path and did not encounter the sprawled corpses in the corridor.

The plump woman was the so-called Auntie Wei mentioned by Little Dianxiang, burly with thick brows and big eyes, her face fierce. She smacked the back of the head of a child who was walking slowly, almost knocking the air out of him, and barked, "Hurry up!"

She herded the child to the base of the altar and bowed to the fourteen Golden Core disciples standing on it.

Tao Jiangjiang nodded gently and gestured with her hand that Auntie Wei could leave.

After Auntie Wei left for the Ksitigarbha Hall, she was shocked to see several people nearby collapse silently.

"Enemy attack!"

She tried to shout loudly, but before a word could escape, a skylark flew toward her, transforming into a small knife and slicing across her throat.

Auntie Wei leaned against a wall, trying to widen her eyes in disbelief, only to see it was a small knife, merely six or seven inches long.

A dozen or so Taiping Sect disciples came this way, chatting and laughing.

These disciples, in the Divine Embryo stage, already competent to join the sect, could possibly reach the Golden Core within a year or two to become the mainstay of the sect.

Auntie Wei wanted to warn them loudly about the enemy, but her throat had been slit, rendering her speechless.

One after another, birds flew in, transforming into swords and daggers, striking swiftly through the disciples’ hearts, throats, and skulls, with precision, without any hesitation!

In an instant, those Taiping Sect disciples toppled haphazardly, as if struggling to stay upright, only to collapse.

The corpses were strewn across the corridor.

Auntie Wei clutched her throat tightly and then saw a figure approaching, not very tall, likely a teenager, followed by a wooden cart, a dog.

When he stepped into the light of the corridor, illuminating his face,

"It’s the young man who came during the day."

Auntie Wei recognized his face, gargled in her throat, and staggered towards the altar.

Her vision blurred increasingly, her heartbeat quickened, and her steps grew heavier.

Blood poured out from the wound in her throat, trailing down her neck, staining her chest red.

She stumbled towards the altar, where Tao Jiangjiang and the other fourteen Golden Core cultivators had already activated various talismans, swirls of cloud rising and floating in mid-air.

Then everyone activated their Golden Cores, circulating the talismans, opening the gate to the underworld.

At that moment, it was a critical period.

One by one, the children looked up at the clouds above, where the portal to the underworld was taking shape.

Just then, Auntie Wei staggered over, trying hard to shout out.

Suddenly, numerous skylarks, shrikes, and kingfishers flew up, dashing into the altars like birds diving into the woods!

From inside the altars came muffled groans, followed by a dazzling light from exploding Golden Cores, lighting up half the sky!

Some Golden Cores went out of control, melting the shrines, even melting half of the altar, while some exploded violently, and others flew off, collapsing several buildings!

Auntie Wei fell to the ground with a thud, trying to look up dumbfoundedly at the scene.

Tao Jiangjiang and the other fourteen Golden Core masters were pierced and killed by the avian-transformed swords and iron stakes before they even had the chance to react!

Fourteen Golden Core cultivators, all without exception!

Auntie Wei’s vision darkened, her ears catching the sound of footsteps behind.

She wanted to move but had no strength left, and finally, her blood drained, she died.

Chen Shi walked over from behind her, the wooden cart rolling along.

A flock of birds fluttered overhead.

The commotion at the altar had alerted the people of the Taiping Sect.

In Tingyu Tower, a middle-aged man sat solemnly in meditation, and after a moment, the fontanelle on top of his head opened, a Nascent Soul the size of a bean flying out from it.

This middle-aged man was Liu Rufeng, the Nascent Soul cultivator Chen Shi had first encountered upon arrival at Phoenix Ridge, Sect Leader Peng Wanshan’s junior, already at the Nascent Soul Realm.

Liu Rufeng’s Nascent Soul emerged from the tower, floating in the sky, and suddenly, he witnessed sword light flashing at the altar, followed by the bright light and sounds of bursting, uncontrolled Golden Cores! fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

Liu Rufeng’s heart was startled, "Enemies have infiltrated the mountain!"

His response was swift as his Nascent Soul shot toward Tingyu Tower, but as he reached the outside of the tower, he saw two orioles perched on top.

Suddenly, the two orioles transformed, in his sight becoming two Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder Talismans!

Liu Rufeng’s complexion changed drastically, and he rushed into Tingyu Tower.

At the same time, one after another, skylarks flew in, striking toward Tingyu Tower like lightning!
