Chapter 466: A Thousand Miles Walked, A Hundred Thousand Souls Slain!



Chapter 466: A Thousand Miles Walked, A Hundred Thousand Souls Slain!

"We can\'t be sure the Nian won\'t attack others. We should retreat!" A third of the awakened, their hearts still a whirlwind of chaos and fear, had no choice but to abandon kin and friend, moving back temporarily.

All eyes were fixed on the rampaging Nian, and Yun Xiao, who trailed behind it, was particularly conspicuous.

"The Nian doesn\'t attack him?"

"What is his relationship with the Nian…"

With these questions, they watched as nearly 100,000 descendants of the Three Immortals were slaughtered by the Nian, a near-total annihilation of their kind. They didn\'t even leave corpses behind; the Nian devoured them all.

Endless screams and wails filled the air.

"The Nian is too brutal!" The third of the awakened, looking upon this hellish scene, felt their disdain and hatred for the Three Immortals turn into sheer terror at the ferocity of the Nian.

A hundred thousand, the elite and the noble of the Primordial Ruins, nearly wiped from existence! Neither on the Nian nor Yun Xiao could any semblance of mercy be seen, only a cold, grim resolve.

"What happened today will resound through history, akin to when the Martial Emperor Clan obliterated the Devil Ark," Dean Yu said, her voice trembling with the weight of the declaration.

"It was the Three Immortals who brought the calamity of the Five Decays upon us, but blamed it on the Martial Emperor Clan! They were the true fiends, and this fate is no less than they deserve!"

Those once revered as saviors, the True Immortals of salvation, were now unveiled as the very fiends who sought to extinguish humanity. The awakened souls, those clear-headed few, finally remembered whom their hatred was meant for. As the broken spirits and shattered bodies of the descendants of the Three Immortals lay strewn across the blood-soaked hell, still struggling in vain, the awakened raised their arms in outcry, unleashing the pent-up rage within.

"Retribution! This is divine retribution for the Three Immortals!"

Tears streamed down the faces of many.

"Yun Xiao! Yun Xiao!"

Their voices rose in a chorus, calling out for Yun Xiao, their spirits lifted so high they nearly forgot the presence of the Nian.

"The battle of today is temporarily at an end."

Yun Xiao claimed everything. Lifting his gaze amidst the swirling blood mist, he locked eyes with the six-tailed silver fox. From this vantage point, he fully comprehended the terrifying and boundless nature of the newly embodied Moon Fairy. It was merely its breakout feast, devouring 100,000 souls, hinting at its boundless future.

This body needed to digest today\'s gains.

With a sudden shudder, the Six-Tailed Demon Fox shook off countless droplets of blood, its fur gleaming silver once more. The creature, now with four eyes, revealed its eerie beauty to the world.

"The Nian... is unexpectedly beautiful..." Many expressed their admiration, unable to reconcile the brutal beast of calamity with the stunning creature before them.

"Tell the other two Gu worms, I\'ve killed one of their kin and devoured their little ones. It won\'t be long before they too become my feast!" The Six-Tailed Demon Fox smiled coldly, its limbs bent, and then with a leap, it vanished from the sight of all.

Silence fell upon the scene once more. It was a long while before people began to buzz with discussion.

"Such clarity in the Nian\'s speech, has it transformed?"

"Yes! It possesses demonic power, yet also the force of calamity. What does this mean?"

Of course, even now, only a third were engaged in discussion. The remaining two-thirds were still consumed with rage, pointing fingers at Yun Xiao, accusing him and the Nian of ancient crimes.

Yun Xiao paid them no heed. Amidst the focus of countless eyes, he nonchalantly sorted through his significant gains, his gaze finally resting on a Life Sigil in his palm.

The Life Sigil was like a vast continent in itself, adorned with mountains and rivers. The mountain ranges crisscrossed each other, emanating a majestic aura, with each peak formed from dense patterns of sigils, shaping the land into the likeness of a butterfly.

"The Mystic Earth Immortal\'s Life Sigil, with its 6,660,000 Runes, is known as the Kun Sigil. It wields the force of the earth\'s pulse, surpassing even the Yang grade."

And now, it belonged to Yun Xiao. Along with this, he naturally didn\'t overlook the Mystic Earth Immortal\'s Bag of Holding and other personal treasures.

"The wealth of the Mystic Earth Immortal and the 100,000 descendants of the Three Immortals, I\'ve taken it all in one fell swoop," Yun Xiao mused, his gaze icy. "With this, I\'ve managed to destroy half of their resources."

The remaining half was tied up in the Sky Source Ruins and with the Human Zenith Immortal.

Indeed, to Yun Xiao, these 100,000 descendants collectively amounted to no more than a single one of the Three Immortals.

Having slain the Mystic Earth Immortal, Yun Xiao was more aware than anyone of his formidable power.

"The Great Decay, created by the Creator Immortal as sweepers of the mortal world, allowed me to borrow and redirect their lethal force with the Heaven Burial Sword Soul, instantly annihilating the Mystic Earth Immortal. In terms of cultivation, this Mystic Earth Immortal should rank above the Yang Immortals, though whether he counts as a True Immortal remains uncertain."

Without the Great Decay, relying solely on the freshly freed Moon Fairy, Yun Xiao was uncertain of his chances against the Mystic Earth Immortal, let alone rescuing Lian Xi from his clutches.

In short, the Mystic Earth Immortal, for all his strength, was unlucky and had little chance to showcase his power. This held especially true since he had absorbed the lifespans of countless beings!

"After Moon Fairy consumes the 100,000 descendants and fully digests them, he should grow stronger. Things on the War Princess\' side are also looking up... As for myself, without the Great Decay, I\'m at the Early Five Decays Realm, barely possessing the combat power of a Yin Immortal, still far from the Sky Source Immortal and Human Zenith Immortal."

For this reason, despite today\'s great victory, Yun Xiao was not optimistic. The centuries-old foundation of the Three Immortals had been halved today, and the remaining two would surely go mad with rage!

This was evident in the lingering worries visible in the eyes of Dean Yu and others.

"It\'s time to plan the next steps."

Yun Xiao organized his gains, ready to move towards Dean Yu and Lian Xi.

But at that moment, another twist of fate occurred!

"Hmm?"

Yun Xiao looked up, and after the power of the Great Decay had dissipated, the overlapping sun and moon once again unleashed a vast force of Heavenly Decay, sweeping through the Primordial Ruins.

"Ah!" Whether it was the people at Dean Yu\'s pavilion or those near the Mystic Zenith Temple, all the inhabitants of the ruins once again showed signs of agonizing pain.

Many fell to the ground, writhing. Their suffering was the same as when the sun and moon first converged, including Yun Xiao himself, who felt the fire of decay reignite within his body.

He glanced over to see Dean Yu, and those in white robes beside him, faring no better.

"Quick! Practice the Ascension Technique now!"

Those who still had a semblance of madness in their minds immediately sat down in meditation, continuing the practice of the Three Immortals\' techniques.

This time, without their lifespan being devoured, they did not age rapidly. However, their lives still sped towards their end, aging months in just a day.

"Ah, ah—" And that one-third who had awakened, they surely dared not continue their practice. But if they didn\'t practice, while their lifespan remained, their strength burned away, constantly in pain!

It was clear, everyone who had cultivated in the Primordial Ruins at this moment was struck by the poison of Heavenly Decay.

As long as the sun and moon converged, there was no escape!

And practicing the Ascension Technique could bring a momentary sense of fulfillment, happiness, a lifting of the soul.

"Dean Yu, what should we do?"

"We can\'t hold on!"

"Can we continue to practice?"

The Jade Immortal Tower Master and others approached, sweating coldly, gritting their teeth with the question.

"Hold on for now," Dean Yu said, looking at the suffering beings before them, her eyes unavoidably filled with sorrow.

"The compass!" Yun Xiao descended from above, addressing Dean Yu, "The compass that was in the Mystic Earth Immortal\'s possession, is it with you? It can separate the sun and moon, right?"

"You\'re speaking of the Primordial Compass. It\'s the helm of the Primordial Ruins," Dean Yu produced the compass, placing it before them, shaking her head at Yun Xiao. "Its solar and lunar cores have disappeared. The convergence of the sun and moon is irreversible. The Three Immortals planned this for over 100 years, never intending for the countless people in the Primordial Ruins to survive."

"They wanted the force of Heavenly Decay to spread throughout the myriad worlds, forcing everyone to practice the Ascension Technique." Yun Xiao frowned.

"Yes! It\'s irreversible now…" Dean Yu\'s white hair fell loose, her eyes dim, seeming to age several years in a moment.
