Chapter 143 The Golden Elixir is Bestowed

On the path from the Sword Tomb to the Secret Realm exit, the ambushes were indeed dense.

Xuanyue Sect's poison Cultivators hid in the shadows, continuously spraying dark green toxic mist, but they were neutralized by the combined efforts of Luo Ningshuang's poison-breaking pill and Ling Wei's cleansing array patterns.

The Sword Cultivators of the Tianyue Sect formed sword arrays, attempting to block the path, but they were suppressed by Su Qingyuan's Qingxuan Burning Heaven Sword Domain, their sword techniques burned to nothing before they could even be unleashed.

Along the way, they encountered many Disciples from other Sects. Seeing the formidable combat strength of Lin Yue and his group, they either fled at the sight or foolishly charged forward, only to be struck away by Lin Yue's staff or subdued by the four women.

Halfway there, a familiar figure suddenly darted out from the side. It was the flag-wielding Cultivator who had previously been entangled by vines in the Sword Tomb. He had broken free at some point and now brought over a dozen Xuanyue Sect Disciples to set up the spirit-eroding poison array: "Lin Yue! Today, I will have you buried here!"

The moment the poison array activated, the dark green toxic mist surged, and pitch-black poison patterns appeared on the ground, spreading toward the five of them.

Ling Wei sneered, and her hundred treasure exquisite disk instantly expanded: "With only these petty tricks, you dare to show off?"

Her fingertips moved through array seals, causing the Three-Ring Spirit Gathering Array to collide with the poison array. Cleansing array patterns washed over the poison patterns like a tidal wave, continuously purifying the dark green toxic mist. "Qingyuan, lend me your Sword Intent!"

Su Qingyuan understood, and the Qingxuan Burning Heaven Sword Domain surged. The blue-gold Sword Intent spread along the array patterns, causing the poison array's patterns to ignite upon contact with the fire, instantly turning into ash.

Lin Yue seized the opportunity to leap up, his zhensha divine staff carrying the Heaven-Burning Evil Fire, and smashed it fiercely toward the flag-wielding Cultivator: "I spared your life last time, yet you dare to come and deliver yourself to death!"

The flag-wielding Cultivator was terrified, his Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering. He tried to activate the black flag for defense, but Luo Ningshuang's poison shuttle accurately struck his wrist, causing the black flag to fly from his hand.

The divine staff fell, and before he could even let out a scream, his Meridians were shattered, and he died.

The remaining Xuanyue Sect Disciples, seeing this, fled in terror, but they were all entangled by A He's vines and could not move.

After resolving the ambush, the five did not dare to delay and sped toward the Secret Realm exit.

The Spiritual Qi along the way became increasingly dense, and faint sounds of intense fighting could be heard; clearly, the battle for the mineral vein had entered a white-hot stage.

"The Secret Realm exit is ahead, the mineral vein should be nearby!" Ling Wei pointed at the golden-glowing rift ahead. "I can feel at least three Golden Core Cultivator auras there, and one of them is very much like Master Liu!"

Lin Yue's eyes narrowed, and the power of the Golden Core Dao Body within his Dantian instantly operated to its limit: "Speed up, Revered Master might be pinned down!"

The five figures moved like lightning, passing through the Secret Realm exit rift and instantly stepping into an open valley.

In the center of the valley, a mineral vein radiating rich Spiritual Qi was clearly visible. Around the vein, Disciples from the Qingyun Sect, Xuanyue Sect, and Tianyue Sect were engaged in a fierce battle. Liu Qingyan held the pure spirit immortal flute, fighting against a Golden Core Elder from the Xuanyue Sect. The spiritual light around her showed signs of fatigue; clearly, they had been fighting for a long time.

The Golden Core Elder of the Xuanyue Sect was Mo Renxing's Junior Brother, Mo Xuanfeng. He held a black iron whisk, the strands of which were wrapped in Soul-Devouring Evil Qi. Every move was ruthless, aiming straight for Liu Qingyan's vitals: "Liu Qingyan, if you know what's good for you, yield the mineral vein immediately, or today you shall be buried here!"

The Golden Core Elder of the Tianyue Sect led his Disciples, crazily charging at the Qingyun Sect's defensive formation. The Qingyun Sect Disciples were gradually failing to hold on, and the defensive line had begun to loosen.

"Revered Master! We are here!" Su Qingyuan gave a clear shout, and the Qingxuan Burning Heaven Sword Domain instantly expanded, sweeping toward the Tianyue Sect Disciples.

Seeing the five of them, a flash of surprise crossed Liu Qingyan's eyes. The flute music suddenly became high-pitched, and the pearly white spiritual light surged, temporarily forcing Mo Xuanfeng back. "Lin Yue, the core array eye of the mineral vein is on the east side. Capture the array eye, and you can control the mineral vein!"

Mo Xuanfeng's expression changed drastically upon seeing Lin Yue and his group: "Where is Mo Xuansha? How could you possibly come out alive!"

"Your good nephew has already become a ghost under my divine staff!" Lin Yue sneered, and the zhensha divine staff's golden-red spiritual light surged as he charged toward Mo Xuanfeng. "Today, I will send you to accompany him!"

Ling Wei immediately took Luo Ningshuang and A He and rushed toward the array eye on the east side of the mineral vein: "Sister Qingyuan, you help Master Liu pin him down, we will go capture the array eye!"

Su Qingyuan nodded. The qingxuan burning heaven sword and Liu Qingyan's pure spirit immortal flute echoed each other, pearly white spiritual light and blue-gold Sword Intent weaving together to firmly block the Tianyue Sect Disciples' offensive.

Lin Yue and Mo Xuanfeng clashed instantly. The zhensha divine staff and the black iron whisk collided, golden-red spiritual light and Soul-Devouring Evil Qi erupted, and the shockwaves sent the surrounding gravel flying into the sky.

Mo Xuanfeng's cultivation was several times stronger than Mo Xuansha's. The whisk strands coiled like poisonous snakes, attempting to entangle the divine staff, but the zhensha divine staff was naturally resistant to Evil Qi. The Soul-Devouring Evil Qi on the whisk strands was instantly absorbed the moment it touched the staff, and the whisk strands lost their spiritual support, becoming limp and powerless.

"Impossible! How can your staff suppress my Evil Qi!" Mo Xuanfeng was both shocked and furious. He shook the whisk violently, and countless poison-dipped whisk strands shot toward Lin Yue.

Lin Yue dodged to the side, unleashing the full power of his Golden Core Dao Body, and smashed a fist into Mo Xuanfeng's chest.

Mo Xuanfeng hurriedly activated his protective spiritual light, but it was instantly shattered by the force of the punch, sending him flying backward as he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"There is nothing impossible about it; your Xuanyue Sect's Evil Qi is vulnerable before me!" Lin Yue leaped in pursuit, the zhensha divine staff carrying a sharp whistling sound as it smashed toward Mo Xuanfeng again.

On the other side, the three of Ling Wei had already arrived at the array eye on the east side of the mineral vein.

The array eye was guarded by four Xuanyue Sect Disciples who were activating array patterns, attempting to reinforce the defense.

Ling Wei's hundred treasure exquisite disk expanded, and star patterns instantly entangled the four Disciples' ankles: "Ning Shuang, do it!"

Luo Ningshuang fired poison shuttles from her fingertips in succession, accurately hitting the Meridians of the four Disciples. The spirit-eroding poison took effect instantly, causing the spiritual power of the four to stagnate and the operation of the array patterns to halt.

A He controlled the vines to firmly entangle the four, and the life force of the spirit plant bead poured into the array eye, beginning to break the array patterns.

"Quickly stop them!" The Tianyue Sect's Golden Core Elder, seeing this, wanted to divert manpower to support them, but he was firmly pinned down by Liu Qingyan and Su Qingyuan and could not escape at all.

Ling Wei's fingertips spun array seals rapidly, and the star patterns wove together with A He's vines, spreading along the lines of the array eye and peeling away the Xuanyue Sect's array patterns bit by bit: "Put in more effort, we'll be able to break it soon!"

The battle between Lin Yue and Mo Xuanfeng was nearing its end. Mo Xuanfeng had been struck repeatedly by the zhensha divine staff, his protective spiritual light was completely shattered, the Golden Core within his Dantian was vibrating violently, and his spiritual power was in complete disarray.

He watched Lin Yue's figure pressing in step by step, his eyes full of despair: "The Xuanyue Sect will not let you go!"

"Wait until you can leave alive before saying that!" Lin Yue roared, the zhensha divine staff gathering all his strength as he smashed it fiercely toward Mo Xuanfeng's Dantian: "Fierce Evil Strike!"

Golden-red spiritual light erupted, Mo Xuanfeng's Golden Core was instantly smashed to pieces, and he spat out a large mouthful of black blood, falling to the ground, his breath cut off.

After dealing with Mo Xuanfeng, Lin Yue immediately rushed toward the array eye.

At this time, the three of Ling Wei had successfully broken the array eye. A He pressed the spirit plant bead into the center of the array eye, and pale green spiritual light spread along the array eye, causing the mineral vein's Spiritual Qi to instantly become docile and begin surging toward the Qingyun Sect's direction.

"The array eye is captured!" Ling Wei shouted loudly.

The Tianyue Sect's Golden Core Elder, seeing this, turned pale, knowing the situation was lost, and turned to flee.

How would Liu Qingyan give him a chance? The flute music shifted, and the pearly white spiritual light condensed into a spiritual blade, instantly catching up and striking his heart from behind.

The Tianyue Sect Elder screamed, his spiritual power collapsing! Luo Ningshuang, A He, and Ling Wei also made their moves in succession. Star-moon shuttles, green vine arrows, and talisman soldiers were all launched together. The Tianyue Sect Elder could not dodge in time, and injury was added to injury.

Lin Yue seized the opportunity and struck heavily with his staff, smashing him and his Magic Treasure onto the ground! Su Qingyuan stabbed through the opponent's Dantian with a sword, ending his life completely.

Having lost the leadership of the Golden Core Elder, the Disciples of the Xuanyue Sect and Tianyue Sect instantly collapsed into a disorganized rout, either surrendering or fleeing in all directions.

Lin Yue and the others reunited with Liu Qingyan, and looking at the rich Spiritual Qi surging in the mineral vein, smiles of relief appeared on their faces. The Qingyun Sect Disciples cheered with joy; after enduring many hardships, they had finally seized control of the mineral vein.
