Chapter 2315 From Today, the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect Will No Longer Exist

Since the rabbit had come out, how could they let it run?

It was time to close the net!

This was Lin Xun’s plan from the start. The Heaven Slaughtering Dao Severing array was the trump card that would catch all the enemies in one fell swoop.

After all, there would be too many potential variables if the other party was allowed to escape into the mountain gate.

Rumble!

The ready and waiting Little Five immediately activated the Heaven Slaughtering Dao Severing array. Dao runes emerged like a tide, rising and spreading throughout the area to cover the sky and land. Countless colorful symbols twinkled and flowed as if they were incarnations of the dao.

In an instant, the entire place changed.

It was as if a cage had formed, blocking off the dao, sky, and sun.

The few remaining Emperors as well as the two Emperor Ancestors, Ningzhen and Lerong, were trapped inside.

To Lin Xun’s surprise, at the critical moment, Emperor Ancestor Yuzhong forcibly erupted the taboo law power in the jade ruler and managed to break open an escape route from the Heaven Slaughtering Dao Severing array.

However, the mountain gate had already been sealed while Xi was hot on his heels!

"Doh!”

Little Five pushed the Heaven Slaughtering Dao Severing array’s power to its extreme. In an instant, the array flooded with raging wind, thunder, and fire, culminating into all sorts of unbelievable and terrifying streams of destructive energy.

The Emperors were the first to succumb, killed one after another in the array.

The two trapped Emperor Ancestors desperately resisted but rapidly accumulated injuries as time passed.

In mere moments, they were covered in wounds. Their bodies were stained with blood as they screamed, roared, and cursed incessantly.

Lin Xun and Big Yellow stood outside the array, watching with cold and emotionless eyes.

Rumble!

In the end, with a deafening and violent rumble, Emperor Ancestor Ningzhen and Lerong were submerged in an endless torrent of light. They shattered and disintegrated, turning into ashes that scattered in the wind.

Unsatisfied, Little Five said, "Tch, just two old guys, how overkill."

Big Yellow unhappily said, "Don't you know how much precious materials were used to create this array?"

Meanwhile, Lin Xun peered into the distance.

Soon after, a shrill cry was heard from afar, "Heavenly Emperor Shi will never let you off, never—!"

It was Emperor Ancestor Yuzhong. His voice pierced the sky, brimming with unresigned anger.

However, it soon came to a halt.

Xi appeared in the distance, her graceful and misty form resembling interwoven lights. Her otherworldly demeanor seemed to illuminate the devastated terrain.

Lin Xun smiled in relief.

The surroundings were silent. Destruction stretched out around them while the air was filled with the pungent scent of ash and blood.

In the battle, four Emperor Ancestors and nineteen Emperors of the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect had been killed!

Countless more disciples had also died in the vicinity.

From what Lin Xun knew, this battle in addition to the battle of Blood Dome Mountain a few days prior had almost wiped out all of the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect Emperor experts. In other words, they were no longer any threat!

The thought of this caused a surge of emotions in his heart.

The root of this feud originated from Great Emperor Baqi. After many long years, it had finally ended today!

"Numerous ambushes likely await us inside the mountain gate."

Big Yellow laughed as he said, "But unfortunately, those old rabbits are all dead now and the ambushes are no longer a threat to us.

"Let’s go in and slaughter them!"

Big Yellow took the lead.

"Little Five, stay here and control the array. Kill anyone who tries to escape!"

With these parting words, Lin Xun and Xi followed Big Yellow into the mountain gate.

Holy Illumination Ancient Sect’s secret realm wasn’t inferior to any other ancient orthodoxy’s. It was full of blessed dwellings and the air was thick with misty chaos qi. Various spirit birds danced in the sky while auspicious beasts prowled the land, making it resemble a divine paradise.

After countless years of development, the foundations and wealth accumulated by the secret realm had reached an unimaginable level.

A blessed land capable of supporting several Emperor Ancestors was rare even in the vast Ancient Nebula Road.

When Lin Xun and his companions entered, the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect disciples residing within were horrified and chaos soon ensued.

There was no longer anything here that could threaten Lin Xun and his group. Hence, they steamrolled through with unstoppable momentum.

In the mere time it took to brew a pot of tea, the entire Holy Illumination Ancient Sect was crushed!

Only after arriving at the supreme forbidden area of the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect and confirming that there were no longer any threats did Lin Xun’s heart heave with emotion.

The mighty Holy Illumination Ancient Sect, which had reigned over the Ancient Nebula Underworld for countless years, was destroyed by him today!

......

That same day, news of the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect’s demise spread, causing the Ancient Nebula Underworld to fall into an uproar. Countless people were shocked and terrified, causing them to question in shock, "How can Emperor Daoyuan be so powerful?"

A few days ago, the battle of Blood Dome Mountain elevated Emperor Daoyuan's fame to a new high. He became akin to a sun shining over the Ancient Nebula Underworld and sparked many heated discussions.

With the demise of the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect, his fame now engulfed the entire Ancient Nebula Underworld as if he were its sovereign!

"The Holy Illumination Ancient Sect was one of the Ancient Nebula Underworld’s three rulers for countless years. Even experts all over the Ancient Nebula World feared its dreadful power. Who would have imagined that such a terrifying faction would become a thing of the past overnight?!"

Shocked voices resounded in the many regions of the Ancient Nebula Underworld.

"Lin Daoyuan...is simply a living legend and the greatest superstar of our era! His name is destined to be passed down through the ages and shake all worlds!"

Everyone realized that, starting today, the balance of power in the Ancient Nebula Underworld would be single handedly rewritten by Lin Xun.

From today, the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect would be erased from the world!

......

A hidden place.

When Qing Ying and the Copper Sparrow House elders heard the news, they were stupefied and unable to return to their senses for a time.

In the battle of Blood Dome Mountain, Yu Kunzi, the Emperor elders, and Emperor Ancestor Kusheng were slain!

This was already a rare achievement. Now, even the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect had been destroyed, completely overturning the common sense of Qing Ying and elders.

It was a long while before Qing Ying finally calmed down a little. She immediately issued an order, "It's time for Copper Sparrow House to take action. Everyone, please gather the old members of Copper Sparrow House and take back the territory that originally belonged to us!"

Although the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect was destroyed, its territory and subsidiary factions still existed. However, they were destined to be like loose sand and lambs waiting to be slaughtered!

If not now, when will we act?

On this day, Copper Sparrow House forces hidden all over the Ancient Nebula Underworld moved out one after another, and began to erupt like a volcano that had been suppressed for far too long!

......

The impact of the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect’s destruction naturally wasn’t limited to just this.

Before long, people discovered that the Earth Treasury Realm’s territories in the Ancient Nebula Underworld were evacuated and their forces had mysteriously disappeared.

At the same time, the mountain gate of Earth Treasury Realm was shut, isolating it from the outside world!

This drew worldwide attention and caused another huge wave.

"Does this mean that the Earth Treasury Realm has also realized the severity of the situation and has decided to hunker down to survive?"

Many people shared similar speculations.

"It is necessary. After the destruction of the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect, Emperor Daoyuan’s next target will undoubtedly be the Earth Treasury Realm!"

“You should know that on Blood Dome Mountain, nine Emperors, including Emperor Ancestor Kusheng, were slain. Moreover, Emperor Ancestor Daxu, Kuming, and Duchen were also killed recently!”

“Think about it, the Earth Treasury Realm has lost four Emperor Ancestors and many Emperor experts. Given how the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect was destroyed, where would they find the courage to confront Emperor Daoyuan?”

"Hunkering down is undoubtedly the wisest decision."

Discussions about the Earth Treasury Realm’s actions swept through the Ancient Nebula Underworld like a storm.

Some people found it disdainful. Given how the powerful Earth Treasury Realm was known to be unafraid of death, it was cowardly of them to retreat without fighting!

Some people sighed and felt that with the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect’s demise and the Earth Treasury Realm’s withdrawal, the Ancient Nebula Underworld would soon come under Emperor Daoyuan’s rule!

Some people had a more long term perspective and believed that when Heavenly Emperor Shi returned from the Kunlun Dominion, all of Emperor Daoyuan’s accomplishments would be blown away by the wind and he would definitely be put to death.

......

While the outside world was abuzz with discussions, Lin Xun had already tallied all of the wealth accumulated by the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect over the years.

Even he found himself a little dazed when faced with the total wealth of such an ancient orthodoxy.

It was simply too much!

The countless divine materials, elixirs, texts, and treasures could easily form a mountain when piled together!

The dao crystals alone numbered in the billions, while other treasures were too numerous to count...it was impossible to estimate their total value.

"The Holy Illumination Ancient Sect...is rich as hell..." Big Yellow couldn't help but sigh, eyes squinting gleefully as it lay amidst the countless treasures.

In the next moment, it suddenly stood up, rubbed its paws and said, "Let's go to the Earth Treasury Realm. The treasures collected by those old bald donkeys should be no less than the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect!"

It seemed almost fanatical and full of vigor.

Slightly annoyed, Lin Xun replied, “Will the Earth Treasury Realm be unprepared after learning of the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect’s destruction? There’s no need to rush."

He was currently going through the inheritance texts of the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect. These texts were recorded in jade slips which could easily pile up into a hill.

In Lin Xun's opinion, the accumulated inheritance collection of such an ancient orthodoxy was more valuable than the other treasures.

"Lin Xun, look at this." Suddenly, Xi spoke up nearby. She was holding an unremarkable gray stone in her hand.

Anything that could catch Xi’s eye would naturally not be ordinary.

Lin Xun walked over to receive the object only for Xi to toss it to him as if afraid he would touch her fingers again.

Lin Xun was briefly stunned before he began to take a closer look at the stone.

The black stone was astonishingly heavy, making it feel like he was holding up a mountain. No ordinary person would not be able to bear its weight.

Its surface was as smooth as a mirror, as if it had been polished countless times by extremely sharp objects over endless years. A slight depression was also visible.

On its back, several ancient characters were engraved: Sharpen your heart like a blade.
