144: Chapter 144 You've really hit the jackpot!

But a bizarre thing happened! From within the hundred-zhang shattered great blood bell, a ten-zhang white immortal bell flew out, emitting pure Immortal Qi!

Jiang Lan was completely stunned. How is this possible?

On the other side of the battlefield, the five Elders of the Soul Devouring Pavilion at the Peak of the Golden Core Realm were being suppressed by the Hundred-Zhang Ferocious Fox. They were covered in injuries, had vomited several mouthfuls of blood, and suffered severe internal injuries!

There was no helping it; the Perfect Golden Core Realm was simply too strong. Added to the Battle Bloodline bonus, it could be said that the Hundred-Zhang Ferocious Fox was almost invincible among those of the same rank!

The five Elders of the Soul Devouring Pavilion clutched their chests and vomited another mouthful of blood. They looked at each other and said, "Bring out our trump card, otherwise we will all die here."

The five Elders of the Soul Devouring Pavilion instantly had a "Soul" character ignite between their brows. The five of them formed hand seals simultaneously, their movements surprisingly synchronized, and unleashed a "Soul Gathering Seal."

On the black robes of the five Elders of the Soul Devouring Pavilion, the embroidered white resentful souls moved! Each white resentful soul flew into the air, merging into a mass of white souls, instantly transforming into a hundred-zhang tall female ghost!

The female ghost was dressed in white, her long hair completely obscuring her face, making it impossible to see her features. Suddenly, the pressure of the Middle Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm exploded from the female ghost as she reached out to grab the Hundred-Zhang Ferocious Fox!

The Hundred-Zhang Ferocious Fox raised its iron fist, dozens of zhang in size, and vanished on the spot! The next second, it appeared behind the female ghost and shattered her head with a single punch!

The faces of the five Elders of the Soul Devouring Pavilion instantly turned the color of pig liver from the pain. A sweetness rose in their throats, and they vomited a mouthful of blood as they were sent flying backward!

The Hundred-Zhang Ferocious Fox flashed in front of the five Elders of the Soul Devouring Pavilion. Its iron fist, dozens of zhang in size, smashed down, directly pulverizing the five Elders into a mist of blood, killing them instantly and thoroughly!

On the other side, the position of the ten thousand Disciples of the Soul Devouring Pavilion had completely turned into a living Hell! There was blood everywhere, broken limbs and bodies were scattered about, and the ground was covered in corpses!

The last dozen or so surviving Disciples of the Soul Devouring Pavilion were surrounded by the Hundred-Zhang White Tiger, the Gao Family Three Siblings, and Yun Baizhou leading the Twelve Corpse Guards of Jinling!

The dozen Soul Devouring Pavilion Disciples' pupils dilated violently, their bodies trembling uncontrollably, and pale yellow liquid flowed down their pant legs, pooling on the ground!

The Twelve Corpse Guards of Jinling moved! Twelve golden figures suddenly flashed in front of the dozen Soul Devouring Pavilion Disciples. Twelve great blood sabers were raised high and slashed down fiercely!

A dozen heads rolled in the air for a dozen turns before falling to the ground! Over ten thousand Disciples of the Soul Devouring Pavilion were completely wiped out!

The Soul Devouring Daoist curled his lips into a cold sneer. "Kid, do you know what this is? Have you ever seen an Immortal Artifact? You can count this as a mayfly seeing a real giant tree; your death is truly worth it!"

After finishing, the Soul Devouring Daoist quickly formed hand seals. The "Soul" character between his brows shone with a brilliant blood-red light, and his blood-colored robe fluttered without wind. He slammed a "Soul Devouring Seal" onto the white immortal bell.

The white immortal bell flared with intense immortal light, instantly casting ten thousand zhang of immortal radiance that enveloped the entire battlefield!

All the souls of the Soul Devouring Pavilion Disciples were forcibly extracted! The souls of the ten thousand Disciples were filled with terror, their faces twisted, as they were swallowed into the immortal bell!

The miserable screams echoed through the heavens and earth, making one's scalp tingle! This immortal bell had actually swallowed the souls of all ten thousand Soul Devouring Pavilion Disciples clean!

Jiang Lan's spine turned cold instantly, and cold sweat "whooshed!" out from his back!

'Isn't the soul devouring bell a Blood Demon Bell? How is there a ten-zhang immortal bell inside it? How could the Soul Devouring Daoist possess this Immortal Artifact? Immortal Artifacts should only exist in the Immortal Realm! What's even more bizarre is that the Soul Devouring Daoist is actually feeding the immortal with souls! Don't only Demonic Sects devour souls? How can this Immortal Artifact also devour souls? How is this possible?' A series of questions left Jiang Lan completely bewildered!

Suddenly! Two immortal souls, one male and one female, walked out from the ten-zhang immortal bell! Both were dressed in immortal robes, with a white "Immortal" character burning between their brows, and the three words "immortal soul Sect" written in large characters on their white immortal robes!

"Dao'er, you did well. The Cultivators recruited into the Sect over these years are all top-notch nourishment! Your mother and I have already recovered eighty percent of our immortal souls. Kill these Cultivators, and our whole family will return to the Immortal Realm!"

Above the Sage Peak of the Mount Shu Main Peak, a handsome man in his twenties hovered in the Void Realm. The man's white robe fluttered without wind, his sleeves billowing, and on his back, the three large characters "Seven Saints" were written in wild, blood-red cursive script.

That's right! This handsome man was none other than Shushan Old Ancestor Yuhengzi.

Shushan Old Ancestor Yuhengzi was currently tense, as if facing a formidable enemy! Because his seven Disciples were about to undergo Nascent Soul formation, and it was seven Nascent Souls forming simultaneously! This was considered a spectacle even in the entire Central Province!

It had attracted quite a few "old ghosts" of the Soul Transformation Realm, and even several powerful figures of the Body Integration Realm had come; in reality, they were mostly here to watch Mount Shu make a fool of itself!

The news that the Central Province Imperial Family was going to exterminate the Taixu Realm in two days had spread throughout the entire Central Province overnight. In their eyes, Shushan Old Ancestor, and even all the Cultivators of the Taixu Realm, were already dead men. They just wanted to come and see what futile struggles the dying could make!

There were even some who wanted to take advantage of the moment Yu Hengzi's seven Disciples were forming their Nascent Souls to launch a sneak attack. Even if they couldn't kill Yu Hengzi, as long as they severely injured him, they could curry favor with the Central Province Imperial Family and show their loyalty.

That's just how the world is; there are almost no people who offer help in times of need, but a pile of people who kick you when you're down!

Actually, to tell the truth, Shushan Old Ancestor didn't put these Body Integration Realm powerful figures and Soul Transformation Realm old ghosts in his eyes at all. After all, there was the "Three Corpses Soul Protection Formation" boundary protection array left by his Revered Master. He wouldn't dare say much more, but killing these dozens of nobodies before him was not a problem.

What he was truly worried about was the Heavenly Tribulation! Although the entire Central Province had not seen any Heavenly Tribulation for over five hundred years, Yu Hengzi had a faint, bad feeling in his heart!

This time, his seven Disciples forming Nascent Souls simultaneously might really summon the Heavenly Tribulation. This would be the first Heavenly Tribulation in Central Province in over five hundred years, and he feared its power would be immense. Even if he could barely block this Heavenly Tribulation by relying on the "Three Corpses Soul Protection Formation" left by his Revered Master, the dozens of Body Integration Realm powerful figures and Soul Transformation Realm old ghosts lurking outside the boundary would definitely seize the chaos to attack, severely injuring him and killing all seven of his Disciples!

After all, this is a Cultivation World where people eat people; the level of human malice often exceeds a normal person's comprehension!

At the foot of the Thunder Immortal Sect in the Immortal Realm, in a dilapidated cave, two people, one fat and one thin, were lying on the ground. Both were sallow and thin, looking malnourished, so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs.

These two were the lowest-level little Thunder Gods of the Thunder Immortal Sect. The thin Thunder God was named "Xiaolei," and the fat Thunder God was named "Pili."

The Thunder Immortal Sect was originally responsible for bringing down the Heavenly Tribulation upon Cultivators in the Lower Realm, and it used to be a notoriously lucrative department in the Immortal Realm. The reason was simple: how could Cultivators Undergoing Tribulation not die?

The Thunder Gods of the Thunder Immortal Sect only needed to occasionally create a small accident, using a little too much force to blast the Cultivator Undergoing Tribulation to death, and the soul of that Cultivator would naturally belong to the Thunder God to consume!

There were also Spirit Stones, Magic Treasures, Magical Artifacts, Talismanic Incantations, and a whole series of other items. Although items from the Lower Realm weren't worth much, any Cultivator capable of Undergoing Tribulation was basically a dragon or phoenix among men, and the items on their bodies could still be exchanged for some Immortal Coins. Heaven and Earth are unkind, treating all things as straw dogs!
