130: Taixu Holy Land exits

"Junior Brother, you worked hard," Mu Wanqing said with a smile.

Li Pingan grinned. At this moment, he no longer had any of the ferocity that had previously terrified several Disciples of the Taixu Sword Sect.

"I'll go find a place to change my clothes first."

"Senior Sister, I wonder how we should deal with those two?" Xiao Lingxian raised her eyebrows and looked toward the woman in the light purple dress.

Mu Wanqing's eyelashes trembled slightly. After a moment of thought, she said, "Give them a quick end. Since they've done these things, they must pay the price they deserve."

Mu Wanqing believed that even if her Revered Master were present, he would make the same choice.

If their group's Realm had been insufficient and their strength lacking, she and Xiao Lingxian would likely have met the same fate.

Xiao Lingxian gave a cold "mm." Since she knew how to handle them, she didn't bother asking more.

Nearby, Ling Yi suddenly laughed twice, then slowly stood up, his gaze sweeping over Mu Wanqing's group. "No wonder... no wonder you were favored by that Mysterious Realm Emissary. If I had known, I wouldn't have provoked you."

This Saint of the Taixu Holy Land now knew what his end would be.

Kneeling and begging for mercy would only add to the mockery.

He hadn't expected his Great Dao to only reach the Golden Core stage... in the end, he hadn't been cautious enough.

With a wave of his hand, more than sixty spirit fate crystals appeared in the air. He then looked at Ye Hao and said, "Give me a quick end too."

Ye Hao didn't rush to collect the spoils. Instead, he asked, "Is it true that crossing this canyon will lead to that Central Square?"

Ling Yi's lips twitched as blood flowed out. "Once you leave the canyon, head west for about a hundred miles, and you'll see it."

Ye Hao nodded slightly, then channeled the spiritual power within his body, giving this Saint of the Taixu Sword Sect a quick end.

He raised his hand and collected the more than seventy spirit fate crystals.

Including the thirteen spirit fate crystals the group had previously obtained, they had now collected seventy-five. He remembered that only about five hundred people had initially entered this second stage, the Myriad Spirit Affinity Realm.

Mu Wanqing's group of five had seventy-five spirit fate crystals; it was simply terrifying.

And this was without them actively hunting down Cultivators to search for spirit fate crystals... Outside the Arena Stage!

The Pavilion Master of Tianji Pavilion looked at Mu Wanqing's group as they set off to leave the canyon. He couldn't help but click his tongue twice, his eyes filled with wonder. "What fine talents. No wonder they were chosen by that Mysterious Realm Emissary. With this kind of strength, even my Heavenly Secret Pavilion must treat them with gravity."

"I wonder exactly who trained these five Prodigies."

"Truly impressive methods!"

Fang Wuchang naturally didn't think they were from the Profound Realm. Only a few people from the Profound Realm came to this Little Linglong World every year.

These five were surely Prodigies of this world, though he didn't know which Sect of the Central Region they belonged to. If they won the competition, a new power would likely emerge out of nowhere to replace the Zixia Holy Land.

Daoist Lianxiao of the Medicine Pavilion let out a soft breath, feeling somewhat relieved.

Fortunately... fortunately, my Medicine Pavilion didn't run into those five. Otherwise, there would definitely be no hope for that heavenly dust pill, and breaking through to the Soul Emergence Stage would have nearly vanished like bubbles.

At this moment, he truly wished he could send a message to the Saint and Saintess inside the Myriad Spirit Affinity Realm, emphasizing every word: if they encounter the Yellow-Skirts Girl's group, they must avoid them immediately and not provoke them.

He recalled the physical toughness of that dark-skinned youth and the sturdy youth, especially the latter's mysterious Divine Ability just now, which could break through the Taixu Sword Sect's Luohou Sword Array in a single blow.

He couldn't speak for others, but at least his own Disciples couldn't do it.

They could break the array, but not so cleanly and decisively.

It was best not to provoke such variables, lest they capsize in a small stream and lose everything.

At Profound Moon Palace!

Yun Yao blinked, her face full of astonishment. She raised her hand to rub her throbbing forehead, looking incredulous.

"They won... Sect Master, you have a good eye. You actually predicted it."

With silver hair reaching her waist, Xiao Yue didn't turn around. Her gentle voice came from her graceful back: "I feel that these few haven't used their full capabilities yet. Taixu Holy Land was, in the end, too weak for them."

"It's a pity they didn't encounter those three from the Heavenly Secret Pavilion. Otherwise, we might have been able to see the true depth of these five."

Yun Yao's lips moved, but she didn't speak. Having been proven wrong once before, she now doubted her own judgment and chose to silently listen to the Sect Master's assessment.

Elsewhere, within the Taixu Holy Land.

The Sect Master and various Elders had different expressions.

The Grand Elder's sigh of disappointment came: "I said long ago we shouldn't provoke that group. Now look, the spirit fate crystals we worked so hard to collect have ended up benefiting others instead. Our Taixu Holy Land can only miss out on the Heavenly Selection Grand Ceremony this time."

"We'll have to spend resources to train Disciples all over again, and it will take another thirty years."

If it were any other Sect, they could use this as an excuse to demand an explanation.

But since these five were related to that Mysterious Realm Emissary, and the Zixia Holy Land had been destroyed only a few days ago, who would dare to demand an explanation? They could only accept the loss.

More than twenty years of cultivation were gone without any return. Instead, they had become a laughingstock for the Cultivators of all regions.

More than thirty Cultivators had planned an ambush against five people, and in the end, not a single one escaped.

The Fourth Elder looked at the images within the blue smoke, the scene of the Luohou Sword Array being broken repeatedly flashing through his mind. He couldn't help but sigh: "This... what kind of Divine Ability did that person use? Why is it so unreasonable?"

The Grand Elder sneered mockingly: "Weren't you sure of victory? Weren't you so proud of the Falling Flower Sword Formation? Just because you are in the Golden Core Realm, does that mean others can't be in the Golden Core too?"

The Fourth Elder's face flushed with anger.

"Enough!" the Sect Master shouted sternly, interrupting the argument between the two Elders.

He looked extremely gloomy. After a pause, he said, "The Sect must not suffer a loss for nothing. Go and seize Ling Yi's Family and throw them into the mines in the back mountain of the Sect."

"Ask if there are any that the Medicine Pavilion might like. Exchange them for as many Medicinal Pills as possible."

"If there are any good-looking female Cultivators, ask the Blood Shadow Cult if they want them for refining Puppets."

"Yes, Sect Master!"

The surrounding audience was even more excited and high-spirited.

No one expected that the five people, who were thought to be surrounded, would not only leave alive but also slaughter the Disciples of the Taixu Sword Sect.

One must know, that was one of the Ten Great Sacred Lands!

"It seems this Heavenly Selection Grand Ceremony will be much more exciting than the last one. These five will surely be a major dark horse."

"Damn... I hope that little brat of mine doesn't provoke these people. They're too fierce; even the Taixu Sword Sect's sword array was broken."

"This is how it should be! Kill like that! I've long been sick of these high and mighty Sacred Lands. It would be best if they could kill all the Saints of the Medicine Pavilion too, so they won't sell Medicinal Pills so expensively."

"Look, the results are out on the Heavenly Secret Pavilion's side too. The Invincible Holy Land is also about to exit. To think that in only the second round of this year's competition, only seven of the Ten Great Sacred Lands remain."
