74: Chapter 74 A Trial

Chapter 74: A Small Test of the Blade

In an instant, Qin Feng felt himself enter a profound and mysterious state.

At this moment, even without unleashing his Divine Sense, Qin Feng could see every blade of grass, every tree, and even every ant in the Wind and Thunder Prefecture, as if nothing could escape his eyes.

“Is this the terror of the Heavenly Dao Realm?” Qin Feng exclaimed at this moment.

“Yes, Master, but you currently only control one-billionth of the Heavenly Dao’s authority. It can only function as intended within the Family’s sphere of influence.”

“To be precise, Master, you are omnipotent within the Qin Family’s sphere of influence,” the System said proudly.

Hearing the System’s words, Qin Feng’s perspective shifted to the Hundred Flowers Palace’s banquet hall. Sure enough, he could see everything happening, even what they were thinking and what they planned to do next, all with perfect clarity.

Then, Qin Feng’s perspective shifted to Sun Yuan, who was the most restless person at the scene.

At this moment, Sun Yuan was kneeling on the ground, head bowed, his face filled with terror. However, what he was thinking internally was clearly displayed in Qin Feng’s mind.

“Qin Family, very good. You have humiliated me so today, and I will remember this grudge. You probably don’t know that I am a chess piece planted by the Blood Demon Palace in the Wind and Thunder Prefecture. Once I send word to the Blood Demon Palace, their army will descend, and I will ensure you all die without a burial place.”

“And Cao Ying, you slut, you constantly oppose me. I will definitely refine you into a demonic puppet to sate my hatred.”

Qin Feng looked at Sun Yuan with a playful gaze, then used the power of the Heavenly Dao to mark him.

Instantly, a label appeared above Sun Yuan’s head:

[Blood Demon Palace Undercover]

Unexpectedly, with this one mark, at least three thousand of the more than two hundred thousand Cultivators present also had this mark appear on them.

Then, Qin Feng expanded his view to the entire Wind and Thunder Prefecture and discovered countless red dots throughout it. Upon closer inspection, there were at least forty to fifty thousand of them.

Qin Feng sneered. Since the Wind and Thunder Prefecture now belonged to the Qin Family’s sphere of influence, these undercover agents must be thoroughly purged.

With a thought, the sky above the entire Wind and Thunder Prefecture instantly became turbulent, and the heavens darkened.

Then, countless vortices appeared in the sky, followed by the instant formation of blood-red lightning bolts, as thick as a thumb, constantly weaving through the clouds, as if searching for prey.

The hundreds of billions of Cultivators in the Wind and Thunder Prefecture, whether at the Body Tempering stage or the Human Immortal stage, even Mu Qingge and Wuji Zi of the Qin Family Immortal Academy, and Cang Beiming hidden in the shadows, all looked up at the sky.

“This is bad! This is Heavenly Dao Lightning Tribulation, a punishment sent by the Heavenly Dao! Who on earth triggered the Heavenly Dao Lightning Tribulation? This is going to kill us all!”

“What?! This is actually Heavenly Dao Lightning Tribulation? Our Wind and Thunder Prefecture is finished, completely finished!”

Meanwhile, within No Edge Valley, the more than thirty Elders of No Edge Valley, whether in seclusion or not, all looked solemnly at the sky.

Suddenly, the blood-colored lightning in the sky struck down, and seven Half-step Human Immortal Realm Elders of No Edge Valley were instantly reduced to ashes by this Heavenly Dao Lightning Tribulation, leaving nothing behind.

In the Hundred Flower Valley banquet hall, Sun Yuan suddenly had a bad premonition.

Suddenly, a blood-red lightning bolt struck directly at Sun Yuan’s head, instantly shattering him into pieces that slowly vanished into the air.

Then, thousands more blood-red lightning bolts descended upon the Hundred Flower Valley banquet hall. It could be said that as soon as that blood-colored lightning appeared, it would claim a life.

And the cultivation of those Blood Demon Palace undercover agents, harvested by the Heavenly Dao Lightning Tribulation, now fed back into the earth. However, they now appeared in Qin Feng’s hands, stored in an incredible way within a crystal ball.

Then, the dark clouds in the sky dispersed, and the sky returned to clarity. However, the crowd had not yet recovered from their terror; what had just happened was too frightening. They felt that even a Human Immortal Realm Cultivator would surely die if struck by that blood-colored lightning.

But what puzzled them was what these people present had done to actually trigger the Heavenly Dao Lightning Tribulation.

At this moment, within No Edge Valley, Feng Chi, the Valley Master of No Edge Valley, watched in horror as seven Human Immortal Realm Elders of his Sect died before his eyes. Even he felt an endless chill from that lightning.

“Investigate for me! Investigate thoroughly! What exactly happened? Why were these Elders struck dead by heavenly lightning?”

After he spoke, everyone in No Edge Valley began to act.

Indeed, investigating news in the cultivation world is fast. As long as a clue is given, many things are very easy to sort out.

At this moment, an Elder rushed into the Sect’s main hall, knelt on the ground, and said,

“Sect Master, something terrible has happened. The seven Elders who just died under the Heavenly Dao Lightning Tribulation are all…”

Feng Chi said angrily at this moment,

“Why are you stammering? Speak quickly!”

“Sect Master, these Elders were all introduced into No Edge Valley by Elder Sun, but according to our investigation, they are all undercover agents planted by the Blood Demon Palace in our No Edge Valley.”

Upon hearing the Elder’s words, Feng Chi slumped to the ground, then said with grief and indignation,

“Heaven wants to destroy my No Edge Valley! I trusted Sun Yuan so much, even making him the Grand Elder of my No Edge Valley, but I never expected him to be such an ungrateful wretch! Where is Sun Yuan?”

“Reporting, Sect Master, Sun Yuan’s nameplate has shattered. He must have perished under the Heavenly Tribulation, just like the other seven Elders.”

“Furthermore, according to reports from our scouts, this incident has caused at least tens of thousands of Cultivators throughout the Wind and Thunder Prefecture to die under this Lightning Tribulation. They might all be spies from the Blood Demon Palace.”

Upon hearing this, Feng Chi gasped. Tens of thousands of Cultivators throughout the Wind and Thunder Prefecture had simultaneously perished under the Lightning Tribulation. This looked like it was man-made. Who on earth possessed such heaven-shaking, earth-shattering power?

“I remember Elder Cao Ying and Elder Sun went out together. Could it be that Elder Cao also perished under the Lightning Tribulation?”

“Sect Master, I was just about to report this to you. Originally, Elder Cao’s Soul tablet was dim and would have perished within ten years due to the exhaustion of her Lifespan. However, when I just checked Elder Cao’s Soul jade tablet, I found that Elder Cao’s Soul jade was much brighter than before, indicating that Elder Cao has extended her Lifespan by at least a hundred years on this trip.”

“What? Extended her Lifespan by a hundred years? This is impossible! Absolutely impossible! Even a tenth-grade Spirit Pill for extending Lifespan couldn’t have such an effect. It seems Elder Cao has obtained a fortuitous encounter!”

Meanwhile, within the Blood Demon Palace, chaos had erupted. Ouyang Zhen, a Peak Heavenly Immortal expert, had taken hundreds of Human Immortal experts to the Wind and Thunder Prefecture to retrieve the Blood Demon Holy Embryo, which was supposed to be a sure thing. However, to their surprise, everyone’s life tablets shattered simultaneously.

Blood Wuji, the Palace Master of the Blood Demon Palace, a Peak Golden Immortal expert on the verge of entering the Half-Saint realm, had originally planned to personally go to the Wind and Thunder Prefecture to retrieve the Blood Demon Holy Embryo.

However, he never expected that the Soul tablets of the hidden agents he had planted in the Wind and Thunder Prefecture would all shatter simultaneously. At this moment, he was afraid, because even he could not so precisely kill everyone unless he destroyed the entire Wind and Thunder Prefecture.
