411: Chapter 411 Eradicate Evil Completely

Hearing a woman's voice, and such an explicit and enchanting one at that, both Xiao Qingxuan and Leng Bingyan couldn't help but frown.

Lin Xiao had no interest in responding and walked straight into the canyon.

As soon as they entered the passage, they heard the sound of something cutting through the air.

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!—"

Dense poison needles shot out from the traps, leaving no room to dodge.

Lin Xiao ignored them; such mere traps couldn't possibly break through his Protective Astral Qi.

Along the way, various obstacles like poison arrows, gas, and insects were all pushed aside by Lin Xiao's cultivation without any pressure.

The two women followed behind the man; at first, they were on high alert, but later they felt it was quite unnecessary.

Because in front of a Land Immortal, these traps and hidden weapons meticulously crafted by the Moon Worship Cult were completely meaningless.

Lin Xiao actually knew these trap layouts like the back of his hand; the only reason he didn't destroy them in advance was simply because they posed no threat.

After exiting the passage, a massive, mirror-like lake lay ahead, where mountain spring water gathered, emitting waves of cold mist.

"Surrounded by cliffs on all sides, who would have thought that the Moon Worship Cult's lair would be in such a bottomless abyss?"

Leng Bingyan exclaimed, "No wonder this place can't be seen from the outside; this cold fog is truly thick enough."

"No, this fog... it doesn't seem naturally formed; it looks more man-made."

Because Xiao Qingxuan practiced the Xuanming Ice Soul, she was exceptionally sensitive to changes in water.

"Husband, the owner of that voice from earlier hasn't appeared yet. Could it be..."

Lin Xiao nodded. "My wife, your immortal grade technique truly hasn't been practiced in vain. You're right; that enchantress is likely hiding in the water, waiting to ambush us."

Hearing that it was indeed the case, Xiao Qingxuan smiled sweetly and said, "In that case, why don't you take a rest, Husband? Leave this battle to me."

"No problem."

Lin Xiao readily agreed. Although Xiao Qingxuan's technique and cultivation had progressed rapidly, she lacked actual combat experience.

It was rare to encounter a suitable opponent, so it was necessary for her to practice.

With a graceful leap, Xiao Qingxuan walked on the water, heading straight for the center of the lake.

"If you won't come out, then don't ever come out!"

With a strike of her palm, a large area of the water's surface began to crackle and turn into solid, cold ice!

A shadow in the water, like a mermaid, moved as fast as a fleeting swan, dodging the freezing areas.

With a splash, the woman suddenly leaped out of the water!

She had long, wet hair and wore only a few simple pieces of clothing; her seductive face was tattooed with fish-dragon patterns.

Looking from afar, Lin Xiao identified the woman as the Moon Worship Cult's Venerable of Water, who indeed possessed the strength of a Martial Arts Grandmaster.

"You little wench, daring to fight me in the water is seeking your own death!"

As the Venerable of Water spoke, she spun around, and thousands of water lines shot up from the lake's surface, turning into steel-like wires that blasted toward Xiao Qingxuan!

Xiao Qingxuan remained unfazed. With a wave of her fair hand, those water lines froze in mid-air, looking like countless strands of frozen hair!

With another flick of her hand, these ice-sculpted strands shattered into pieces and transformed into ice needles, shooting toward the Venerable of Water!

The Venerable of Water's expression changed; she clearly hadn't expected Xiao Qingxuan's cultivation to be so profound, and she quickly summoned a thick water screen to intercept.

But Xiao Qingxuan raised her hand again, and the thick water vapor over the lake turned into ice shards, attacking the Venerable of Water from all directions.

Realizing things were going south, the Venerable of Water hastily raised both arms, summoning two more water curtains to block the ice shards.

Just then, a deep blue glow suddenly flashed in Xiao Qingxuan's eyes. Her surging true qi transformed into a cold wave, submerging the area where the Venerable of Water stood.

Just as the Venerable of Water sensed danger, she saw that the water walls around her had already turned into ice walls!?

Not only that, the water vapor around her condensed rapidly, and her entire body was frozen inside a massive ice pillar!

Xiao Qingxuan leaped up and landed on top of the ice pillar, looking down at the immobile Venerable of Water, whose eyes were filled with terror.

"I'm returning those words to you now."

After the woman finished speaking, she crushed the ice pillar with a kick.

Before the Venerable of Water could even scream, her body shattered along with the ice and fell into the lake.

Watching Xiao Qingxuan swiftly deal with a Martial Arts Grandmaster, Leng Bingyan on the shore couldn't help but be both surprised and delighted.

"Husband, has Qingxuan's power reached the Great Grandmaster Realm?"

"Not yet, but in the water, her combat strength is indeed comparable to a Great Grandmaster."

Lin Xiao even felt a bit envious of her; though they both practiced immortal grade techniques and his Indestructible Golden Body was certainly powerful, it didn't have such flashy combat effects.

Xiao Qingxuan froze a long ice path on the lake's surface, and the group simply strolled across to the other side.

After walking for a while, some bamboo and wooden houses appeared ahead, draped with various flags of the Moon Worship Cult.

What was shocking, however, were the numerous ornaments made of human bones placed in various conspicuous spots.

"This Moon Worship Cult has indeed treated human lives like grass," Xiao Qingxuan said with a frown.

"It's likely some kind of sacrifice; they love this sort of thing!" Leng Bingyan said with deep loathing.

Just then, a barrage of poisoned beast-bone arrows shot out from the dense thickets on both sides!

Lin Xiao had already sensed the ambushing Moon Worship Cultists; his astral qi shield blocked all the sneak attacks several feet away.

"For the Moon God!"

"For the Cult Leader!!"

"Kill the invaders!—"

Seeing that the arrows were useless, over a hundred Moon Worship Cultists brandished various weapons and charged out from both sides!

"Noisy..."

Lin Xiao had no interest in wasting time; he summoned the guardian of the state and swung the Blood Shadow Mad Blade in a simple and brutal manner.

Pure blood-colored blade qi pulverized and tore through everything in its path, whether it was thickets or rocks.

The Moon Worship Cultists trying to advance were turned into Comprehension Ability points before they even realized what was happening.

Lin Xiao killed as he walked, and the valley was soon filled with the smell of blood.

The two women followed behind, having no chance to act. While they marveled at Lin Xiao cutting down enemies like grass, they were also shocked by the power of the cult.

Even though a Martial Arts Grandmaster like the Venerable of Water had been defeated, they didn't have the slightest intention of surrendering and still charged forward recklessly?

All for that ethereal Moon God? That beast-hearted Cult Leader?

[Bloodlust +375...]

[Ding! Achievement unlocked: "Eradicating Evil Completely": Kill over a hundred wicked individuals in a short period. Grade: Heaven Grade, prestige +1000]

When Lin Xiao fought his way to a magnificent stone palace, an unexpected reward actually popped up!

Although a thousand points of prestige was just a drop in the bucket for him now, the achievement itself made Lin Xiao feel quite satisfied!

"Husband, this should be the Temple of the Moon God," Xiao Qingxuan said, pointing to the archaic characters on the golden plaque.

"No one is left outside; let's go in."

Lin Xiao sensed the surroundings, and after confirming no one had escaped the net, he put away his blade and led the two women into the main hall.

Although this stone hall couldn't compare to the Wudugan Temple, it was still quite large, enough to accommodate hundreds of people for worship.

The three of them looked around and found that besides a massive Statue of the Moon God, there were no Moon Worship Cultists.

However, the three soon noticed a figure shivering behind the statue...
