150: Killing the chicken to scare the monkey

“I never expected to have the Opportunity to capture all the high-ranking members of Zhengyuan Holy Palace this time!”

Xu Qing watched Tang Zhengguang enter the black giant tower, a faint smile playing on his lips.

He would not dislike having fewer Saints under him; if he could subdue them all, he would save himself some cultivation and could take over the entire Holy Domain without bloodshed.

Of course, if they were insensible, Xu Qing wouldn't mind having a few more sacrifices.

“Clan Chief, that Wen Family Guest Elder is not a good person!” Blood Sabre Old Ancestor muttered.

Xu Qing nodded, “Besides controlling people, that Restriction has another function, which is sacrifice. If I'm not mistaken, this person intends to use the Saints of Zhengyuan Holy Palace to enhance his own cultivation.”

Hearing this, Blood Sabre Old Ancestor couldn't help but exclaim, “This person has excellent methods, actually using nine Saints as his Cauldron!”

Xu Qing remained silent. For some reason, he always felt that this person had other motives, but before meeting the other party, he didn't know their true intentions.

The two didn't wait long before Tang Zhengguang had a result, emerging with a middle-aged beautiful woman.

Seeing the appearance of the two, Xu Qing understood something and had Blood Sabre Old Ancestor place a Restriction on the Yan Family Saint.

In the time that followed, Xu Qing successively took down the seventh, sixth, and fifth Heavenly Pass Realms, subduing the Sun, Liu, and Tian Families.

And the fourth Heavenly Pass Realm was where the Wen Family Guest Elder was located.

Xu Qing decided to personally meet this mysterious Guest Elder.

He ignored the Restriction and directly teleported to the tenth floor.

“Who?”

As they appeared, the Wen Family Guest Elder immediately noticed them. A Saint's pressure bore down on them, but it was dispelled by Blood Sabre Old Ancestor.

“Small Saint Perfection!”

The Wen Family Guest Elder's expression changed. He immediately wanted to find helpers, but the messages he sent out were blocked. He saw an ancient seal suspended in the dome of the tenth floor, sealing off the entire tenth floor.

On the other side, Xu Qing observed the Wen Family Guest Elder. The other party was small in stature, with an old face, a hooked nose, and eyes that gave off an uncomfortable, sinister feeling.

[Dan Hong: Small Saint Perfection, 50% Origin power, from the Evil Spirit Holy Sect which was destroyed over six million years ago. His identity is Elder of the Evil Spirit Holy Sect. He has been searching for an Opportunity to Breakthrough to Great Saint. Over one million years ago, he unexpectedly obtained a secret art that could plunder others' cultivation from the Star God Tomb, then sought out Venerable Ancestor Wen and began to lay out his plan...]

This old fellow is truly deeply hidden!

He originally thought the most troublesome among these people was Ancient Ancestor of Sheng Family, but it was this old fellow.

He planned to use the cultivation of nine Small Saints to Breakthrough to the Great Saint Realm.

“You want to call for help? Don't bother!”

Xu Qing sneered.

“Ignorant beast, this Saint will take you today!”

Seeing that help was not coming, Dan Hong did not sit idly by. In a fit of rage, a large hand, like a mountain, slammed towards Xu Qing.

However, Xu Qing remained unmoved. He didn't need to act; Blood Sabre Old Ancestor moved a step sideways and blocked Dan Hong's large hand.

“Old scoundrel, how dare you attack my Clan Chief? Are you tired of living?” Blood Sabre Old Ancestor said coldly.

“Good, good, good! This Saint wants to see how much strength you have; bring it all out.”

Dan Hong looked at Blood Sabre Old Ancestor with a chilling gaze and said, “I haven't acted in a million years. Do you really think anyone can ride roughshod over this Saint and humiliate me?”

As soon as he finished speaking, he leaped into the air.

In the blink of an eye, the two occupied opposing sides in the sky. In that instant, one side's blood Qi soared, while the other's sinister Qi surged. The power of the Saint Dao rolled, and the might of the Saint Dao swept across ten thousand li.

Xu Qing looked up at the battlefield. This Dan Hong was very strong, at least among the very powerful in his rank, but he met Blood Sabre Old Ancestor.

Blood Sabre Old Ancestor inherited the cultivation of Blood Crow. Blood Crow's cultivation had not recovered, but his comprehension of Origin power was genuine; he was an existence who had mastered 80% of the Blood Dao Origin.

Blood Sabre Old Ancestor didn't even need to use his Blood Sabre. He simply relied on the Blood Dao Origin to fight Dan Hong, causing heaven and earth to collapse.

Dan Hong's face also gradually lost color with time, because he found that Blood Sabre Old Ancestor had not used his full strength from the beginning. When he started to get serious later, he was completely suppressed by Blood Sabre Old Ancestor.

“Scram!”

Blood Sabre Old Ancestor roared. As his voice fell, he used his hand as a blade, and a bloody strike landed on Dan Hong's body, splitting him into the ground with that single blow.

Just as he tried to struggle to his feet, a gigantic Blood Dao claw materialized, instantly grabbing him. At the same time, numerous blood-colored divine chains pierced into his body, sealing his sacred soul.

“Clan Chief, should he be killed or…”

Blood Sabre Old Ancestor looked at Xu Qing.

Dan Hong's expression changed, his previous arrogance long gone.

“Keep him for now!”

Xu Qing waved his hand.

He was afraid that Dan Hong might have some soul token or something in Venerable Ancestor Wen's hands, so he decided to spare his life for now.

In the next three Heavenly Pass Realms, Xu Qing used the same method to capture the Ancient Ancestors of the Sheng, Wen, and Wan Families.

This operation took only over half a month, not only capturing ten Saints but also eliminating all hidden dangers in the thirty-three Heavenly Pass Realms.

With these, it wouldn't be long before a group of Saint powerhouses would emerge from the Xu Family.

Soon, Xu Qing and Blood Sabre Old Ancestor returned to the Ancient Time Land.

Bang bang bang!

Several figures fell out of thin air, crashing heavily onto the ground.

“Where is this?”

Dan Hong was the first to scramble up. Looking at the surroundings, he spoke with a tremor.

As a Saint, he could clearly sense the terror of this place.

The other Saints could also sense this terror!

“Where it is doesn't matter. What matters is, you can die now!”

Xu Qing's calm voice reached his ears.

“No! Don't…”

Dan Hong said with a terrified expression, but he was picked up by Blood Sabre Old Ancestor and thrown into the Myriad Spirits Altar, instantly enveloped by countless green flames.

“Ah~~”

A shrill scream echoed. Dan Hong struggled in pain, but he was slowly refined by the green flames.

Tang Zhengguang and the other Saints watched in horror, all shivering and drenched in cold sweat.

Before long, a Small Saint who had reached Perfection was refined into a black crystal.

This black crystal emanated Saint Dao Qi. The Saints present could feel the extraordinary nature of the crystal. They had a premonition that as long as they devoured this crystal, their cultivation would advance by leaps and bounds.

But at this moment, fear had already occupied their entire minds; they only wanted to survive.

“A few days ago, your Liu Family also had a grudge with my Family. Since that's the case, you too shall become this lord's sacrifice!”

Xu Qing calmly pronounced the death sentence for the Ancient Ancestor of Liu Family.

“What?”

“My lord, I haven't concerned myself with the affairs of the Liu Family for many years. Please, my lord, spare my life!”

The Ancient Ancestor of Liu Family's mind went blank. He hadn't bothered with his Clan's affairs for a million years, and he felt wronged.

But Xu Qing's eyes were indifferent, and he paid no attention.

Blood Sabre Old Ancestor stepped forward, dragging the Ancient Ancestor of Liu Family towards the altar.

“My lord, I am willing to become your servant! I am willing to annihilate the entire Liu Family…”

“My lord, spare me! Spare…”

“No…”

“Ah!!!”

The Ancient Ancestor of Liu Family was thrown into the altar. The green flames engulfed him, and his shrill screams once again filled the Saints with terror.

“Bang bang bang!”

“My lord, I am willing to submit!”

The newly promoted Saint of the Sheng Family was so scared his legs went soft, but he used both hands to crawl before Xu Qing, kowtowing repeatedly for mercy!

He had only recently become a Saint, possessing nearly eight million years of Lifespan. He didn't want to die.

The other Saints were stunned at first, then quickly followed suit.

And in that short time, the Ancient Ancestor of Liu Family also transformed into a green crystal, which made all the Saints even more terrified.

Xu Qing watched this scene, a slight smile playing at the corner of his lips.
