41: The Great Dao Human Emperor Cauldron

Shen Lian's words were astonishing, like a clap of thunder striking Tan Beihuan and Ai Buli's heads.

"What did you say?"

"Shen Lian, do you know who we are?"

The two questioned him repeatedly, afraid they had misheard his words just now.

The result... "No need to be mysterious. Ai Buli, Tan Beihuan, you come from the so-called elusive and untraceable Tianji Pavilion, but in my eyes, you are nothing more than two dogs aiding evil!"

"Presumptuous!"

Ai Buli roared.

"Shen Lian, do you know what you're saying? Can you bear the consequences of offending the Tianji Pavilion?"

Shen Lian closed his Folding Fan, and the cloak behind him fluttered without wind.

"Tens of thousands of Disciples in the Monster Beast Mountain Range died because of me, so what's one more small Tianji Pavilion?"

Tan Beihuan paused, then quickly began to calculate with his fingers.

"No need to calculate, I did it. The old dogs of Tianqing Sect, Moon Shadow Sect, and Qinglan Sect,

I killed all three of them, and all living beings within a radius of ten thousand li were also personally annihilated by me.

Now, do you think I still care about offending one more dog kennel whose neck is tied by the Heavenly Dao?!"

"Madman! Absolutely a madman!"

Tan Beihuan trembled with rage.

"Shen Lian, do you know that what you've done has completely deviated from the intended trajectory of the Primordial Continent?"

"Intended trajectory? Hahahaha..."

Shen Lian couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"The so-called original trajectory means paving the way for those Sons of Destiny, clearing all obstacles on their path forward?"

"The so-called trajectory means letting everyone rightfully become stepping stones for a few parasitic worms?"

"The so-called trajectory means letting this continent forever only remember those well-known names, burying the existence of those who also contributed?"

"If this is your so-called trajectory, then let me, Shen Lian, replace it.

At least I'm not as hypocritical and vile as you!"

"Isn't the original intention of prying into the secrets of heaven to sacrifice countless ants for a few individuals to create a hero for this world?"

Tan Beihuan and Ai Buli turned pale with fright.

How did Shen Lian know about the existence of the Sons of Destiny?

No, this person has completely deviated from heavenly calculations; he must be eliminated as soon as possible.

Otherwise, the destinies of everyone in this world are very likely to undergo earth-shattering changes because of his existence.

"Shen Lian, since you are so stubborn, don't blame us."

"For the sake of all living beings, for the purity of the Dao Lineage, you must die."

Upon hearing this, Shen Lian let out another wild laugh: "That's right, come, let me see,

what price can Tianji Pavilion Disciples pay for the so-called common people!"

"Die!"

Tan Beihuan and Ai Buli unleashed their cultivation almost simultaneously.

In an instant, the majestic pressure of the third level of the Tribulation Crossing Realm surged forth, and the surrounding air began to twist and deform under this pressure.

"Shen Lian, you are only at the Void Refining Realm. Although we can't calculate what means you used to bring the Monster Beast Mountain Range to such a state,

but now, in the face of absolute strength, none of your schemes and tricks can be used!"

"Hahahaha—"

"The threat of the third level of the Tribulation Crossing Realm is truly laughable. You want to speak with strength? Then I shall satisfy you!"

The next moment, the pressure of the fifth level of the Tribulation Crossing Realm directly emanated from Shen Lang's body.

In just an instant, Ai Buli and Tan Beihuan's bodies were struck by lightning, unable to move, and their own pressure was instantly shattered into smoke and dust.

"What, this is the pressure of the fifth level of the Tribulation Crossing Realm? Impossible, weren't you clearly only at the Void Refining Realm?"

"No, this isn't ordinary Tribulation Crossing Realm fifth-level pressure. Ordinary Tribulation Crossing Realm fifth-level pressure couldn't possibly devour my Tribulation Crossing Realm third-level pressure. How did you do it?!"

"Why, why can't we deduce his cultivation, or even any information? Who exactly is he?!"

At this moment, the two profoundly felt what despair was.

"Doesn't Tianji Pavilion specialize in divination? Then have you calculated how you yourselves will end this mediocre life?"

With that, Shen Lian condensed a ball of crimson flame in his left palm.

"No, Shen Lian, you can't kill me, you can't!"

"Stop, Shen Lian, you really can't lay a hand on us, otherwise, Tianji Pavilion will definitely not let you go."

The fear of death spread like poisonous weeds in the hearts of Tan Beihuan and Ai Buli.

Their cultivation was imprisoned by the pressure, and their dantian sea felt as if a Lock had been placed upon it, unable to use even a trace of Qi.

At this moment, they finally understood what a terrifying existence they had provoked.

"Now you know fear? When you incited those seven white-eyed wolves behind my back to harm me for the sake of that trash Ye Fan, why didn't you think that you would have such a day?"

"That was Grandmaster's decision, we dared not disobey."

"If your Grandmaster told you to eat shit, would you eat it? trash who can't distinguish right from wrong don't deserve to live in this world."

With a wave of his hand, the scorching flames instantly formed a giant hand, descending directly towards their heads.

"Is this the Fire Cloud Divine Flame?"

"No, stop it!"

Boom~

Amidst the despairing roars of Tan Beihuan and Ai Buli, the fire cloud mercilessly poured onto their bodies.

In just an instant, their physical bodies turned to ashes, leaving behind two still burning skeletons.

"Can you escape?"

After striking, Shen Lian pointed into the Void Realm, and immediately two Divine Souls were trapped in a suppressed space.

Anyone who reaches the Void Refining Realm can preserve their vital Divine Soul once in a crisis. Even if their Physical Body is destroyed, they can instantly leave behind a trace of Divine Soul to await the opportunity to reshape their Physical Body.

"I almost forgot, your Divine Souls still have a chance to escape. In that case, come into my human emperor cauldron and experience the taste of the Nine Hells!"

The next moment, Shen Lian flipped his palm, and instantly, a colorful Dao Rhyme glow appeared in his palm.

Immediately, the Dao Rhyme glow condensed into a Medicine Cauldron.

"What Divine Ability is this?"

"Wait, this seems to be... the Soul Refining Hand recorded in ancient texts! He... how does he know this evil Divine Ability?"

Seeing this scene, the Divine Souls of Tan Beihuan and Ai Buli shrieked in alarm.

"A mere Soul Refining Hand is worthy of my Dharma Eye? This is the great dao human sovereign cauldron I comprehended by understanding the Laws of the Great Dao.

It can refine all things in heaven and earth; even humans and Divine Souls can be refined into Medicinal Pills."

As his voice fell, the Divine Souls of Tan Beihuan and Ai Buli were immediately swept into the cauldron.

As the great dao human sovereign cauldron began to burn with ice frost and snow flames, the Divine Souls of Ai Buli and Tan Beihuan let out extremely painful groans within the palm cauldron.

"Ah, Shen Lian, you will die a terrible death!"

"You will definitely not have a good end!"

Shen Lian sneered: "Manipulating heavenly secrets and poisoning living beings, your existence is a tumor in the path of cultivation. You should experience what despair and what repentance are in the human emperor cauldron!"

One breath in the outside world, sixty years in the cauldron.

This was absolutely the most cruel punishment in the cultivation world.

The two remnant Divine Souls suffered the tempering of the Great Dao Divine Flame within the human emperor cauldron, constantly letting out heart-wrenching screams.

After more than ten breaths, the two noisy voices gradually subsided.

At the same time, the Dao Rhyme-condensed 'Dao Cauldron' dissipated into nothingness, leaving two milky-white Medicinal Pills that fell into Shen Lian's palm.

"Medicinal Pills formed from the condensed Foundation of a Tribulation Crossing Realm Cultivator, I imagine countless Cultivators would be interested."

Shen Lian put away the Medicinal Pills, not even glancing at the ashes of the corpses behind him, opened his Folding Fan, and walked out of the dense forest... "Pfft—"

Inside the Tianji Pavilion, Old Man Tianji, who was calculating the heavenly numbers, suddenly felt a tightness in his chest and violently spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

He immediately began to calculate with his fingers, and his face instantly turned pale.

"Ai Buli and Tan Beihuan's life souls are extinguished?"

"Who on earth did it?"

At this moment, Old Man Tianji felt a chill run through his entire body.

"Lian Zhen!"

With a soft call, a female Disciple dressed in Daoist robes, elegant yet refined, floated down from the Void Realm.

"Revered Master, what are your orders?"

"The life souls of your two Senior Brothers have been extinguished. Go quickly and investigate what happened. Report back immediately if there's any disturbance."

"Yes, Disciple will go at once."

Immediately, Lian Zhen transformed into a star and vanished in the blink of an eye within the secret chamber of Tianji Pavilion.

Old Man Tianji took a deep breath, calculated again for a moment, and couldn't help but frown.

"Who exactly is it that can even conceal heavenly secrets?"

"The nine regions and ten thousand prefectures of the Primordial Continent all cannot escape the Heavenly Dao's Dharma Eye. Is it that my Dao cultivation is not deep enough to discern the Karma within?"

"No, such an unsettling existence that destroys fate must not be allowed. Everyone's fate must return to their original trajectory!"

With a heavy heart, Old Man Tianji continued to close his eyes and enter meditation to explore the reasons.
