390: Chapter 390 Ying Huanhuan: With Power, One Can Be Willful

"The Space Ancestral Symbol... I didn't expect this kid to have such luck."

Ying Xuanzi closed his eyes, not wanting anyone to see the bitterness in them.

The fact that Zhou Tong was not dead was excellent news for him; after all, this was a successor he had raised like his own son.

"That's great." Ying Huanhuan clapped her hands and said with a smile, "We must make the three old dogs of the Yuan Sect pay the price and bring Senior Brother Zhou Tong back to the Dao Sect."

"If Zhou Tong returns, our Dao Sect will have a successor, and my sister and I won't have to worry about no one taking care of Father when he gets old."

Ying Xuanzi: "..."

He was on the verge of stepping into the Samsara Realm, so there would likely never be a day when he needed someone to take care of him.

"Zhou Tong is trapped by a special method of the Yimo Clan, and I am the only one on the entire continent capable of breaking it. When the time comes, I will rescue him and resolve the issue along the way. However, I will take the Space Ancestral Symbol as my reward for taking action." Gu Han stated his intention regarding the Ancestral Symbol beforehand.

"As it should be!" Ying Xuanzi nodded immediately. "If Palace Master Gu can rescue Zhou Tong, such a life-saving favor cannot be repaid easily. As his Master, I can agree to this."

Ying Huanhuan and Ying Xiaoxiao did not find any issue with this either.

His life would be saved by him, so what did giving up the Space Ancestral Symbol matter?

"Alright, then I will first deal with the Yi Mo beneath the great desolation monument."

Gu Han stood up with a smile. His gaze swept over Ying Huanhuan's innocent and romantic face, and he couldn't help but reach out and pat her head.

The head of the Ice Master was quite interesting to pat.

Ying Huanhuan: ?

"Don't pat my head!" Ying Huanhuan's ears flushed red as she took a shy step back. "I won't grow tall if you do that."

A smile appeared in Gu Han's eyes. With a shift of his Divine Thought, he created a spatial portal and stepped into it.

In the next instant, he appeared directly in the air above the Dao Sect's Great Desolation Stone Tablet, pointing his finger gently.

Rumble!

With the Dao Sect as the epicenter, the surrounding Void Realm within a ten-thousand-mile radius was sealed off. Anything that happened inside would be completely imperceptible to the outside world.

Immediately afterward, the natural energy within a thousand-mile radius began to gather frantically, turning into a visible energy storm and clouds.

As Ying Xuanzi and the other three stepped out of the spatial rift created by Gu Han, they witnessed a scene that looked like the impending doomsday.

Within the Dao Sect, countless Elders and Disciples appeared, looking up at the phenomenon in the sky with looks of terror on their faces.

Many noticed the source of the anomaly and looked toward the great desolation monument.

With one hand behind his back, Ying Xuanzi stepped on the Void Realm and spoke in a timely manner: "Do not panic. A supreme expert is taking action to purge the Yi Mo for our sect."

"A supreme expert?"

Being referred to as a "supreme expert" by the Sect Master caused many to speculate about Gu Han's strength.

"Rise!"

Gu Han hooked his finger, causing the great desolation monument to soar into the sky. Positioned within the energy storm, it began to devour the natural energy frantically.

The spirit of the great desolation monument was able to self-create the Great Desolation Scripture, a Heavenly Martial Art. It was naturally skilled in devouring and suppressing. Now, with Gu Han channeling and infusing the natural energy into it, it quickly began to recover.

At the same time, from the original location of the great desolation monument, a towering Devilish Qi and a bloodthirsty aura erupted.

A pressure that shook the heavens and earth appeared, causing everyone's hearts to sink.

Even Ying Xuanzi felt like he was being targeted by a terrifying Yao Beast back when he was weak.

It felt like thorns on his back, and his Primordial Spirit trembled, as if a great catastrophe were about to strike and his life was in imminent danger.

There was no doubt that beneath the great desolation monument lay an Yi Mo that was at least beyond the Wheel Turning Stage level.

"Ice Age!"

Gu Han retrieved a white jade pillar, a Spiritual Artifact he had refined, from the Black Tortoise Mystic Realm, and pointed downward.

Rumble!

The white jade pillar devoured the power of heaven and earth, erupting with terrifying power. It pierced through space to arrive directly below, plunging deep into the pit.

A forest-white cold Qi instantly spread out, freezing the evil aura and movements of the Yi Mo, and even space itself was completely solidified.

Terrifying cold Qi surged from the white jade pillar, shooting straight into the sky and freezing ten thousand feet of the Void Realm.

Under Gu Han's mobilization, the power of the great desolation monument surged directly into the ten-thousand-foot ice pillar, adding a layer of desolation aura.

On the bottom-most hundred-foot section of the white jade pillar, numerous strange characters emerged, emitting a desolation aura that devoured all vitality.

At the very bottom of the white jade pillar, the Yimo King, who had just awakened and thought he could escape, was shocked to find that his essence, Qi, and spirit were all frozen, and his vitality was beginning to be drained from his body.

"No!"

"Our Emperor will avenge me!"

The Yimo King roared, but his voice could not penetrate the sealed space at all.

It could only watch helplessly as the pitch-black world was filled with cold Qi, and everything it had was stripped away.

"It is done!" The entire process had taken only a few breaths. Gu Han spoke calmly, "That Yimo King has been slain by me. Its essence, Qi, and spirit have been devoured by the Great Desolation Scripture and transferred into the Thousand-Year Cold Jade Pillar. This Spiritual Artifact has now transformed into the Great Desolation Pillar."

"In the future, if anyone from the Dao Sect wishes to comprehend the Great Desolation Scripture, they only need to enter within a hundred feet of the Great Desolation Pillar. Anyone with sufficient talent and Comprehension Ability can learn it. This is the request of the spirit of the great desolation monument."

The great desolation monument did not want the Heavenly Martial Art it created to become common and cheap.

Furthermore, this technique of the great desolation monument required devouring all vitality to temporarily boost one's cultivation and combat power. Having too many people know it would not be good for this world.

"A Heavenly Martial Art like the Great Desolation Scripture naturally requires someone of good character who has made contributions to the Dao Sect and possesses sufficient talent and Comprehension Ability to be qualified to learn it." Ying Xuanzi nodded, indicating his understanding.

Gu Han nodded slightly, looked up at the great desolation monument, and infused his Divine Soul power into it.

"Heaven and Earth Desolation."

A terrifying devouring power surged from the Great Desolation Scripture, instantly swallowing all the natural energy within a thousand-mile radius.

Immediately after, however, a massive amount of pure, desolate spiritual energy surged from within it, turning into droplets of spiritual liquid that rained down, perfectly covering the entire Dao Sect.

"Consider this a small gift from me to the Dao Sect."

"I still have urgent matters to attend to. Sect Master Ying, we shall meet again."

Gu Han raised his hand to sweep Ying Xiaoxiao and Ying Huanhuan into the Black Tortoise Mystic Realm, then directly teleported away.

Ying Xuanzi was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at the blue-robed old man beside him. "This Palace Master Gu is indeed quite casual and free-spirited."

"Well, he has the strength to be free-spirited." The blue-robed old man was a Grand Elder of the Dao Sect. His strength had reached the Peak of the Death Profound Stage, and as long as he crossed the Life-Death Tribulation, he could step into the Wheel Turning Stage. Now, his Lifespan was nearing its end, and he was close to passing away.

He and the yellow-robed old man who had accompanied Ying Xuanzi to receive Gu Han today were known as the Two Elders Qian and Lin.

"Indeed. With strength, one can naturally be free-spirited."

Meanwhile, inside the Black Tortoise Mystic Realm.

Ying Huanhuan looked at the unfamiliar surroundings and couldn't help but be stunned. "Where is this?"

"This is the Black Tortoise Mystic Realm," a woman's pleasant voice chimed in.

Hearing the voice, Ying Xiaoxiao and Ying Huanhuan looked over and saw a tall woman dressed in a black dress. She had an outstanding temperament, an exquisitely beautiful face, and a natural charm.

"My name is Cai Die, and I am Gu Han's Dao Companion." Cai Die smiled. "Gu Han has already sent a sound transmission telling me about your situation. I'll take you to settle in."

"The other sisters are either in closed-door cultivation or refining medicine. We will prepare a welcome dinner later to introduce you to them."
