120: Chapter 120 A Spear Pierces the City, the Despair of the Corpse Immortal Sect
In the wastelands of the eastern Immortal Realm, the yin winds howled.
The continuous mountain ranges were tainted by Death Qi, appearing grayish-black.
This was the territory of the Corpse Immortal Sect.
In the center of this land stood a massive city.
The entire city was not built of earth and stone, but piled with white bones; the city walls were embedded with twisted skulls, their hollow eye sockets seemingly frozen with resentment.
This was the main city of the Corpse Immortal Sect—the City of Ten Thousand Bones.
Inside the city, countless black-robed Disciples rode zombies and skeletons. Death Qi and corpse energy intertwined, forming a thick, ink-colored dome that shrouded the entire city in gloom.
At this very moment, this gloom was torn apart.
The sky above the City of Ten Thousand Bones lit up without any warning.
It wasn't sunlight, but a purer, more majestic Holy Light.
"What's going on? What is that in the sky?"
A Disciple who was driving walking corpses squinted his eyes, blinded by the light. He looked up, and the confusion on his face quickly turned into terror.
High in the heavens, over a hundred massive Star Immortal Boats hovered there silently.
These immortal boats were cast entirely from Divine Gold, their surfaces engraved with stellar trajectories, each emitting a heart-palpitating pressure.
The leading "zhou tian star boat" was as massive as a floating continent. Surrounding its hull were three hundred and sixty-five minor stars, forming a grand array that cast down starlight to purify and evaporate the Death Qi of the Corpse Immortal Sect below.
"En... Enemy attack!!"
A sharp shriek broke the silence of the death city, and the alarm bells immediately rang frantically.
The entire City of Ten Thousand Bones instantly fell into Chaos.
Countless Disciples rushed out from the white bone buildings, looking at the fleet in the sky in disbelief.
"This... where did this power come from? Is it the Yuhua Immortal Dynasty? No! Their immortal boats aren't this exaggerated!"
"Such terrifying pressure. My Silver-Armored Corpse King is trembling, and its Corpse Core is about to solidify!"
"What's the background of these people? When did we provoke such an existence?!"
The Disciples were in total disarray; in the face of absolute power, their usual ferocity turned into fear.
Just then, several powerful auras soared into the sky from the White Bone Divine Temple in the center of the city.
"What are you panicking for! Form the Ten Thousand Corpse Mountain Protection Array!"
A cold, raspy voice echoed through the city. The Sect Master of Corpse Immortal Sect, a Golden Immortal Peak powerhouse, stood suspended above the temple, his face ashen.
Behind him, over a dozen Golden Immortal Realm Elders lined up, gazing at the sky with equally solemn expressions.
They also did not know why this fleet had come.
But the prestige of the Corpse Immortal Sect was built upon mountains of corpses and seas of blood; they didn't believe anyone would dare to easily wipe out their Sect gate.
"Buzz—"
Following the Sect Master's order, the City of Ten Thousand Bones trembled violently.
The ground cracked open with bottomless chasms. The billions of corpses buried beneath were summoned, and infinite Death Qi and resentment soared into the sky, converging into a massive, sickly green protective shield over the city.
Upon the shield, the faces of countless resentful Souls drifted, emitting Soul-shaking wails. If a True Immortal Realm Cultivator so much as heard this sound, their Primordial Spirit would be polluted, turning them into a walking corpse.
"Hmph, my Sect's grand array was refined from the death and resentment of billions of living beings. Even if a Taiyi Golden Immortal arrived in person, they shouldn't hope to break it easily!"
The Sect Master of Corpse Immortal Sect looked at the formed array, the panic in his heart subsiding slightly as he regained some confidence.
He shouted sternly toward the fleet in the sky:
"Who goes there? Why have you trespassed into the territory of my Corpse Immortal Sect? State your names quickly, otherwise, don't blame us for refining you all into corpse Puppets!"
His voice rolled out with the might of a Golden Immortal Peak, attempting to shake the fleet above.
However, that massive fleet remained motionless.
At the bow of the zhou tian star boat.
Li Xuan stood at the bow, calmly watching the giant city below.
Beside him, Li Changsheng, Li Qingyue, and the other children were leaning over the railing, looking down curiously.
"Daddy, those houses built of bones down there are so ugly."
Li Qingyue wrinkled her small nose, her face full of disdain.
"And the smell is bad too," Li Changsheng pinched his nose and complained in a childish voice, "it smells worse than the stinky tofu Second Mother makes."
"Indeed."
Li Xuan nodded slightly.
He didn't even bother to respond to the clamoring of the Sect Master of Corpse Immortal Sect below.
For ants destined to be erased, there was no need for dialogue.
"Since it is filth, it should be cleansed."
He slowly raised his right hand.
There were no earth-shattering fluctuations of dharmic power, nor any world-destroying aura.
He simply raised his hand like that.
In an instant, the Laws of the entire heaven and earth began to hum.
Chaos Qi was born from the void, and chains of Immortal Dao Laws appeared out of thin air, converging frantically toward Li Xuan's palm.
Chaos Qi was the Foundation, and Immortal Dao Laws were the skeleton.
Above his palm, an ancient and majestic silver spear was slowly condensing into shape.
The spear was entirely Chaos-silver. Upon the shaft, Great Dao runes flickered in and out of existence, and at the tip, a tiny wisp of purple lightning crackled.
That was no ordinary lightning, but the Judgment Divine Thunder of the Heavenly Dao's will.
This was the "spear of judgment."
An instrument of punishment personally created by Li Xuan, specifically for eradicating the sins of the world.
Below, in the City of Ten Thousand Bones, the moment the Sect Master of Corpse Immortal Sect and all the Elders saw that spear, their Souls trembled without exception.
It was an instinctive, uncontrollable fear when facing a higher life form.
"What... what the hell is that?!"
An Elder's voice was already trembling. The protective corpse qi he was so proud of was actually dissipating on its own under the pressure of the spear.
"Not good! This thing cannot be resisted! Quick, push the array to its limit!"
The Sect Master of Corpse Immortal Sect's scalp tingled as he roared hysterically.
He poured all his immortal essence without reservation into the core of the array below.
"Awoo—"
The sickly green shield covering the city surged with light, and the shrieks from the billions of resentful Souls upon it seemed as if they would tear the sky apart.
Layers of bone shields condensed from corpse qi continuously stacked outside the shield. In an instant, thousands of layers were stacked, making the entire city's defenses impenetrable.
Even after doing all this, the Sect Master and the others remained terrified, the shadow of death still looming over their hearts.
High in the sky.
Li Xuan looked at the fully formed "spear of judgment" with an indifferent expression.
He gave his wrist a gentle flick.
There was no forceful throw, nor any flashy movements; it was as if he were casually tossing away a piece of trash.
The spear of judgment left his hand.
The moment it left his hand, all sounds in the world—the wind, the wails, the cries of alarm—were instantly erased, falling into a dead silence.
In everyone's eyes, only that single silver line of light piercing through heaven and earth remained.
The spear's descent was not fast; it was even somewhat slow.
But everywhere it passed, space was torn and distorted, leaving behind a pitch-black rift that would not heal for a long time.
Before the death and resentment gathered by the Ten Thousand Corpse Mountain Protection Array below even came into contact with the spear, they began to melt away frantically.
"No!!"
The Sect Master of Corpse Immortal Sect's eyes nearly split as he let out a desperate cry.
He saw that their proud mountain protection array was as fragile as a piece of window paper before the tip of that silver spear.
"Puff..."
A faint sound.
The sickly green energy shield, along with the thousands of layers of corpse qi bone shields outside, was pierced through by the spear tip without any resistance.
There was no violent explosion; like a red-hot iron brand searing into butter, the shield was directly melted into a massive hole.
The spear's momentum did not decrease.
"Boom!!!"
In the next moment, the spear of judgment accurately pierced into the White Bone Divine Temple at the very center of the City of Ten Thousand Bones!
A catastrophe has descended.
The purifying divine light, comparable to heavenly punishment, spread frantically from the temple toward the entire city.
"Ah—"
Countless Corpse Immortal Sect Disciples didn't even have time to let out a scream before they, along with the zombie Puppets they had refined, were turned into fly ash in the pure light and erased from this world.
Those white bone buildings piled with skulls collapsed with a bang, turning into bone powder that filled the sky.
The hard earth, like the surface of water into which a stone had been thrown, kicked up waves of soil thousands of feet high, with countless chasms spreading in all directions.
The power of one spear caused the heavens to collapse and the earth to rend!
"Run! Run away!"
Two Golden Immortal Realm Elders reacted extremely quickly. The moment the spear pierced the city, they turned into streaks of light and fled toward the city outskirts like madmen.
However, they had just flown out of the city's range and hadn't even had time to feel relieved.
A tiny wisp of purple electrical arc drifting from the shaft of the spear of judgment floated over, lightly brushing against one of their bodies.
"No..."
That Golden Immortal Elder only had time to utter one desperate syllable before his immortal golden body instantly disintegrated under the purple thunder, and his Primordial Spirit was completely annihilated.
The other Elder, seeing this scene, had his Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering, and his escape light became a bit faster.
But as he flew, he suddenly realized his immortal body was decomposing.
He looked down, only to find that he had also just been touched by a wisp of divine light radiating from the spear's shaft.
Just by being touched by that light.
Everything about him began to dissipate.
"This... what... power is this..."
With endless fear and incomprehension, this Golden Immortal powerhouse turned into fly ash in the void.
The Sect Master of Corpse Immortal Sect hung blankly in mid-air. He had luckily avoided the first wave of impact, but his heart was already dead.
He watched the City of Ten Thousand Bones below rapidly disintegrating in the divine light, and he watched the Sect Disciples being wiped out one by one.
This Foundation, managed for hundreds of thousands of years and gathering endless evil, came to an end at this moment, under this one spear.
What Ten Thousand Corpse Array, what Golden Immortal powerhouses—before the opponent, they were all just a joke.
"Haha... Hahaha..."
The Sect Master of Corpse Immortal Sect suddenly began to laugh like a madman, his laughter filled with venomous resentment.
"It's over... it's all over... but don't think you'll have it easy either!!"
Bloody tears flowed from his eyes as he suddenly knelt toward the collapsing depths of the earth, which had been pierced by the spear of judgment.
Using his own essence blood as a medium and his remaining Primordial Spirit as a sacrifice, he used the last of his strength to let out a prayer that echoed through the depths of the earth.
"Supreme Corpse Emperor... your most loyal servant hereby offers everything... praying for your awakening..."
"Rumble—"
As his words fell, from deep within the collapsing earth, there suddenly came an even more violent, ancient, and evil vibration.
It was as if a terrifying beast that had slept for ages was about to awaken.
