143: Chapter 143 Liquidation!

The giant purple cocoon stood silently.

It was very quiet.

Spiritual energy surged in from all directions, and the aura of life vibrated incessantly.

Inside Yun Xi's body, the red dust fate seed trembled.

She could feel it.

Qin Tian was not dead.

A flicker of the fire of life still remained.

She stood silently by the purple cocoon, saying nothing.

Except for Yun Xi, everyone was blocked outside the purple light curtain.

The Emperors naturally had ways to enter.

However, not one dared to make a move.

The Qin Family Ancient Ancestor's Divine Thought swept over all the Emperors, his words carrying a heavy warning.

"From this day forth, this place is an Imperial City Forbidden Ground. Any unauthorized entrants will die!"

"All of you, disperse."

A single command was given.

The many Emperors left one after another.

"Longevity, you stay here."

"Yes, Ancient Ancestor." Qin Longevity had intended to do so anyway.

"I'll stay too." Snow Princess waved her hand. "Those old fellows from the Feng and Zhuo Families are disgusting to look at. You guys go on your own."

The Qin Family Ancient Ancestor nodded slowly.

"In that case, I'll have to trouble you, Senior Sister."

!!!

Everyone was stunned.

"Senior Sister?"

The Qin Family Ancient Ancestor was the biological son of the Longevity Being.

Then this existence addressed as Senior Sister must also be...!

Snow Princess rarely appeared and didn't care much for the affairs of the Imperial City.

Many Emperors knew the Xue Clan had an Ancient Ancestor of extremely high seniority, but they had never seen her appearance.

But now, even this most ancient existence of the Imperial City...

Seemed to care exceptionally about Qin Tian?

She was even willing to personally stand guard here to protect Qin Tian's safety...!

The Qin Family Ancient Ancestor looked at the giant purple cocoon, his eyes trembling.

Qin Tian had saved the Imperial City by his own strength alone.

No matter what, he would not allow anything to happen to this place.

"Where are the disciples of the Qin Family?"

"Present!"

From the Old Ancestors down to the young disciples, the entire Qin Family stood suspended in the air.

Qin Yu's gaze swept over the purple cocoon, her eyes flashing with endless killing intent!

"Little Tian, I will kill every last traitor to avenge you."

The Qin Family Ancient Ancestor did not hide his voice; it rang throughout the entire Imperial City:

"Those who betray the Imperial City shall have their clans exterminated!"

To the north of the Imperial City, the Emperors of the Feng and Zhuo Families shuddered violently.

The last shred of hope was completely shattered.

The Divine Thoughts of the Imperial City's Emperors enveloped every living being of the Feng and Zhuo Families.

No one could escape.

Figures manifested one by one, standing above the heads of the two families' members.

"Kill!"

Shrill screams echoed through heaven and earth.

But no one showed even a hint of mercy.

Traitors!

They deserved to die!

...On the other side, the giant purple cocoon remained peaceful.

Inside the cocoon, Bai Xiyin's body was curled up, her eyes tightly closed, protecting the withered dao seed against her heart.

She seemed to have lost consciousness.

But from between her brows, a continuous stream of purple energy poured into the dao seed.

"You... who are you...?"

Inside Bai Xiyin's body, a faint voice rang out, filled with extreme anxiety.

"Why are you occupying my body...?"

"Where is Senior Brother? How is he?!"

"I am you..." the heaven and earth sacred fetus said indifferently.

Her power was constantly weakening; she could no longer suppress Bai Xiyin's will.

"Get out of my body!"

"I want to go find Senior Brother!"

The heaven and earth sacred fetus was silent for a few breaths.

"Senior Brother... is right here..."

Bai Xiyin's voice trembled as she felt an incomparably familiar aura coming from the withered dao seed.

"Senior Brother, he..."

"Don't worry... Senior Brother is fine..." The heaven and earth sacred fetus's voice was somewhat weak. "His fire of life is faint but unexpectedly resilient... He just needs time to recover."

Bai Xiyin breathed a sigh of relief. "Then how much time will it take for Senior Brother to recover?"

"I don't know, but it won't be short..." The heaven and earth sacred fetus sighed. "Perhaps a hundred years, a thousand years, or even longer..."

"A hundred years! A thousand years!!??"

"Then I'll be old... how can I still marry Senior Brother...?"

The heaven and earth sacred fetus's voice was somewhat helpless. "Can you show a bit of ambition!"

"If you don't Cultivate properly, how are you going to win against those two?!"

"Who are you anyway? You talk too much nonsense." Bai Xiyin curled her lip. "Don't block me, I want to see Senior Brother!"

The heaven and earth sacred fetus gave a long sigh.

After explaining things this way and that... Bai Xiyin listened to the heaven and earth sacred fetus's explanation, her voice full of surprise and somewhat incoherent.

"I... you... me...?"

The heaven and earth sacred fetus gave a light snort. "If I hadn't been secretly influencing you all these years, how do you think you could have competed with Su Ningying, Han Qing, and the others?"

"Your cultivation is low, your talent is ridiculously poor—you're simply good for nothing!"

"After a hundred or a thousand years, they will still maintain their perfect looks, while you will have turned into an old hag!"

Bai Xiyin: ...She wanted to argue, but it seemed the facts were exactly as the heaven and earth sacred fetus said... but things like talent really didn't follow logic.

"I will inject part of my power into your body; it can improve your Aptitude," the heaven and earth sacred fetus spoke plainly.

"Eh? Really?" Bai Xiyin's voice brightened, but she quickly became confused. "Then what will happen to you?"

The heaven and earth sacred fetus smiled. "My power will be gone; what do you think will happen?"

"You... you'll die...?"

"Bah! You're the one who'll die!"

"Wait, if you die, I'll die too..."

The heaven and earth sacred fetus was a bit depressed. "When my power dissipates, I will fall into a deep sleep. I'm afraid I won't know how many years it will be before I wake up again..."

"I'm telling you, if I wake up and find you haven't won Senior Brother over and haven't given birth to a bunch of big fat babies, I'll extinguish your Divine Soul and take over your body through Possession!"

Bai Xiyin: ... "So you also feel that way about Senior Brother..."

"I'm curious, what do you actually look like? Are you as pretty as me?"

"Actually, wouldn't it be better if you just left my body..."

"Could it be that you're just too ugly?"

!!!

The heaven and earth sacred fetus surged with agitation.

"I've changed my mind. I think I should wipe out your Divine Soul right now!"

"Don't! I was just joking..." Bai Xiyin said tremulously.

"When... will you fall asleep...?"

"Now."

The heaven and earth sacred fetus's voice was firm. "Do not resist."

As the words fell, mysterious purple light radiated from Bai Xiyin's body.

Part of it flowed into the withered dao seed.

Part of it nourished Bai Xiyin's body.

Bai Xiyin felt an extremely profound change occurring within her.

She seemed to become more in tune with the Great Dao, able to feel the breath of heaven and earth.

Near the purple cocoon, spiritual energy vortices manifested and continuously merged into it.

Bai Xiyin's cultivation level rose steadily.

At the same time.

Inside the withered dao seed, Qin Tian spoke quietly, his voice filled with confusion.

"This is... Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi?"

"System, why can I still absorb it now?"

[To the Host: The heaven and earth sacred fetus used its own power to open a spiritual energy pathway for you to communicate with heaven and earth.]

"The heaven and earth sacred fetus...?"

Qin Tian was stunned.

He didn't know the reason.

But for him, this provided an immense benefit.

Combined with the Heaven and Earth Nirvana Sutra, it could greatly shorten his recovery time... "It seems I'll have to thank her properly when I get out..."

[Host, the heaven and earth sacred fetus has exhausted its power and has fallen into a deep sleep.]

Qin Tian paused, feeling a sense of melancholy in his heart.

"Falling asleep..."

As the heaven and earth sacred fetus of the Eternal Foreign Realm, she had exhausted her power to save the person who had left the Eternal Foreign Realm in ruins... "What exactly was she thinking...?"

...
