140: Chapter 140 Eleven Immortal-Slaying Pearls!

Chapter 14: Eleven immortal extermination pearls!

"Do you think that with just a single immortal extermination pearl, you can threaten the Two Holy Lords?"

Seeing Zhao Changsheng's arrogant manner, the Grand Elder's Face turned extremely ugly, and he spoke gloomily.

"Whether it's a threat or not, the Grand Elder knows very well in his heart. No matter what the Grand Elder thinks, I never said there was only one immortal extermination pearl."

After saying that, Zhao Changsheng took out three more from his robes, then another two, and then five more from his Storage Pouch—ten in total!

"I don't have many immortal extermination pearls on me, just these few. A total of eleven immortal extermination pearls. Once they detonate, they're enough to destroy the entire Heavenly Star City. Don't underestimate their power. If the Grand Elder doesn't believe me, feel free to try and see if I have the ability to activate all eleven. Once all eleven are activated, I believe the Grand Elder knows what the consequences will be."

Looking at the immortal extermination pearls before him, each emitting an aura powerful enough to make him feel suffocated, the Grand Elder's expression could no longer be described as merely ugly or gloomy; it was like ink, as black as it could possibly be.

Of course, more than anything, he felt shock, fear, and disbelief.

He had expected Zhao Changsheng to have more than one immortal extermination pearl, but he never imagined there would be so many. If each pearl truly possessed the power Zhao Changsheng claimed, these eleven immortal extermination pearls would be enough to kill a Deity Transformation Cultivator.

What did this mean? It meant that everything they had plotted, anticipated, and planned had all become a joke.

A complete joke, and one that Zhao Changsheng had likely laughed at countless times.

The Grand Elder finally understood why Zhao Changsheng had been so confident; with so many immortal extermination pearls, he would have been just as confident.

Forget Six Paths Extreme Saint; even if the Twin Saints of Heavenly Star and Third Aunt Wan—all four Late Nascent Soul Great Cultivators—were here, he wouldn't care and could drag them all down with him.

Under these circumstances, even the Grand Elder could only take a deep breath and say with a forced smile on his Face:

"You are right; you indeed have the strength and ability. Speak, what are your conditions? As long as the Star Palace can fulfill them, we will absolutely not refuse."

Under the threat of death and the destruction of the entire Star Palace, even the Grand Elder had no choice but to bow his head and ask for Zhao Changsheng's conditions.

There was no other way. If they provoked Zhao Changsheng, the entire Star Palace might cease to exist. In this situation, they could only choose to submit; there were no other options.

Who could have imagined that Zhao Changsheng would be able to produce so many immortal extermination pearls!

"Grand Elder, do not worry, and do not be too concerned. I have done all this primarily for self-preservation. I think you should understand that."

"So you can rest assured. What I want to do now is eliminate the Six Paths Extreme Saint. As for the rest, I won't interfere. Regarding the Star Palace, the Grand Elder can be at ease; I have no intention of moving against the Star Palace, as long as the Star Palace doesn't move against me or do anything particularly excessive. I will certainly not do anything to the Star Palace. On this point, the Grand Elder can be completely assured; there will be no problems. I can guarantee this."

Faced with Zhao Changsheng's promise, although the Grand Elder didn't believe a single word, he still had to express his gratitude.

"In that case, thank you."

"In the future, no matter what you need, just speak. As long as the Star Palace can do it, we will not refuse in the slightest."

It couldn't be helped; Zhao Changsheng now possessed the strength to threaten the Star Palace. Even if it relied on external items, it was still strength.

In this situation, even if they were unwilling, they had to choose to admit defeat, bow their heads, and offer sufficient compensation.

Zhao Changsheng was quite satisfied with the Grand Elder's attitude, but he also knew it was only out of respect for the immortal extermination pearls.

The main reason he produced so many immortal extermination pearls was to tell the Grand Elder not to try any tricks before he took action.

Otherwise, the consequences would be severe. Zhao Changsheng was very satisfied with his approach to this matter.

As for whether this would cause the Star Palace and the Reverse Star Alliance to fully join forces against him, he wasn't particularly worried.

Because he had a sufficient way out to leave this Chaotic Star Sea, he didn't need to worry too much about his safety. This situation held no deterrent for him, nor did he need to be overly concerned. He just needed to follow his plan step by step; the rest wasn't important.

Afterward, the Star Palace Grand Elder took his leave immediately, showing no intention of staying longer. He didn't say another word to Zhao Changsheng and simply left without any nonsense.

"He's finally gone. This bit of trouble is somewhat resolved."

Once the Grand Elder left, Zhao Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was relaxing, Madam Wen walked over.

"Shouldn't you be in secluded meditation, resting and recovering your Origin Qi? How do you have time to come out again?"

Seeing Madam Wen approach, Zhao Changsheng asked with a smile.

"Regardless, I knew the Star Palace Grand Elder had arrived. It was only right for me to come and see him, but I didn't expect to be too late."

Madam Wen's answer made Zhao Changsheng nod. He didn't press further and simply said calmly:

"Then go back and rest. You can leave the upcoming matters to me alone. I also want to wait for you."

"Wait for that husband of yours to come looking for me. I hope he brings a few more people so I can resolve the trouble he brings. Once that trouble is dealt with, the next step will be to overthrow the entire Star Palace. After all, this Chaotic Star Sea has been under the Star Palace's management for many years; it's only right to overthrow them. Only then can I truly become the master of the Chaotic Star Sea. Don't you think that makes sense? Do you think I'm right? I think I'm quite right."

Hearing Zhao Changsheng's ambitious and incredibly confident words, Madam Wen's brow furrowed. She felt that the Zhao Changsheng before her was basically no different from the Six Paths Extreme Saint.

The only difference was that the Cultivation Technique Zhao Changsheng practiced was not a Demonic Path Cultivation Technique.

"Do you feel like I'm particularly ambitious right now?"

Zhao Changsheng had naturally been paying attention to the changes in Madam Wen's expression, and he followed up with a smile.

"Right now, you are basically no different from Six Paths. He has also been working hard to overthrow the entire Star Palace."

Madam Wen didn't hide her thoughts and answered straightforwardly.

"Well said. Right now, I really am no different from Six Paths. I also want to overthrow the Star Palace's rule. I don't have a shred of goodwill left for that organization. I used to have a little, but now it's completely gone. Since I have no goodwill left, there's no need for me to be polite. Although I was their Elder before, there's no need to be one anymore. Please return this Elder's medallion to them and consider my relationship with them severed."

Zhao Changsheng's answer surprised Madam Wen once again. Looking at the medallion being handed over, she hesitated, unsure whether she should take it.

"Take it. Just give it to them; don't worry about anything else."

"Everything else has nothing to do with you. You don't need to ask or interfere; just focus on your own tasks."

"Then is there anything else this concubine can do for you?"

Faced with Zhao Changsheng's instructions, Madam Wen could only accept the medallion while asking if there was anything else for her to do.

"Nothing else. Just give this to them, and the rest will have nothing to do with you. The remaining matters are for me to solve alone. How many Fellow Daoists do you think your husband, Six Paths, will bring? Do you think he can bring eighty or a hundred Nascent Soul Cultivators?"

Zhao Changsheng's words made Madam Wen unable to help but laugh, though it was a bitter smile.

"If he had that kind of capability, he would have united the entire Chaotic Star Sea long ago. Based on what I know of him and Holy Demon Island, he can bring at most a few dozen Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators—probably thirty or forty. That would be his absolute limit, and only if he put in every effort. In reality, there would likely only be about twenty."

Madam Wen's answer disappointed Zhao Changsheng, but he knew that would be enough.

"Fine, then. But you'd better have him bring as many people as possible so it's easier for him to 'rescue' you. Isn't that how it works? The rumors outside say I've kidnapped you and he's preparing to save you, right? In that case, let's make it a reality. Let's see how much of a price he's willing to pay for you, his Dao Companion, and how many Fellow Daoists he can invite to eliminate me. I also want to see to what extent the Divine Abilities, strength, and connections of the number one figure of the demonic path can reach. Don't you think that makes sense, Madam? I think that's exactly how it should be."

Zhao Changsheng's words made Madam Wen feel uneasy, but no matter how uneasy she felt, she no longer had any room for choice.

"I will do my best regarding this matter, but I cannot guarantee whether he will listen to me."

"No problem. I'll leave this to you, Madam. Once it's done, there will definitely be benefits for you."

Zhao Changsheng nodded, once again very satisfied with Madam Wen's response.

Subsequently, Madam Wen sent a message for help to the Six Paths Extreme Saint right in front of Zhao Changsheng.

Telling the Six Paths Extreme Saint to bring more people.

In fact, Madam Wen also wanted to see just how far Zhao Changsheng's abilities reached.

Could he truly kill the Six Paths Extreme Saint?

Although Zhao Changsheng had been constantly displaying his strength, no one could be certain until the very last moment.

Especially Madam Wen; even she didn't know that much about the Six Paths Extreme Saint.

Even though they were Dao Companions, it didn't feel like it at all.

After finishing all this, Madam Wen left immediately, with no intention of staying. Zhao Changsheng didn't try to make her stay either, as their relationship was merely a partnership.

To put it bluntly, it was mutual exploitation.

As for what the final outcome would be, no one could say for sure.

Regardless, Zhao Changsheng had enough confidence in himself. Not only did he have enough immortal extermination pearls, but he also had a helper. As long as he had this helper, everything would be fine.

Zhao Changsheng believed that this helper could definitely resolve all troubles.

This was his greatest source of confidence, rather than relying on those eleven immortal extermination pearls.

When the Grand Elder reported the situation to the Twin Saints of Heavenly Star, the two were shocked once again because they found it unbelievable.

It was truly incredible; they couldn't even believe it. Eleven immortal extermination pearls—this was something that filled them with terror.

If it were one, two, or even three or four, they might still have a way to deal with it. But with eleven, they truly couldn't think of any way to respond.

Unless Zhao Changsheng suddenly dropped dead, there was truly no other way.

"It seems your Elder brother is certainly doomed; there is simply no way out for him. We originally thought he might be able to take Zhao Changsheng down with him, but now that seems like a pure joke. It's completely impossible. But how could he possess eleven immortal extermination pearls? Looking at the entire Mortal Realm, one probably couldn't even find that many."

Both of them now had a full understanding of the immortal extermination pearls and naturally knew how terrifying they were.

"As things stand, we have no other choice but to wait and see. However, we must still find a way to eliminate him. No matter what, he must be removed."

Wen Qing also sighed in her heart. The current situation had far exceeded their expectations. They never imagined such a serious turn of events. Faced with this, there was very little they could do—it was almost negligible.

"Then should we tell your Elder brother about the eleven immortal extermination pearls so he can be prepared?"

"Not yet. If we tell him, knowing him, he would likely give up immediately and turn tail to flee. He wouldn't reappear until he had enough strength to counter the immortal extermination pearls. By then, it would be too late. So, for now, don't tell him. Besides, even if we can't eliminate both, getting rid of one is still acceptable."

"And this time, it won't just be one; perhaps Third Aunt Wan can also be dealt with along the way."

"You're right. We indeed need to prepare well."

"Sigh, I never expected him to possess so many immortal extermination pearls. It's truly an incredible matter, truly unbelievable."

Ling Xiaofeng said with a gloomy Face.
