Chapter 5691

Faced with an attack powerful enough to kill even a mid-stage Celestial Immortal, Kai merely raised the Dragon-Slaying Sword in his hand.

“A mayfly trying to shake a tree,”

he uttered softly, as the Five Elements Origin Power, now mostly restored, erupted and merged into the sword. Simultaneously, a ripple of the laws of time spread out.

“Slash!”

A simple yet powerful five-colored sword aura, seemingly containing the might to cleave the heavens and earth, easily tore apart the massive ghost-face formation like shredding cloth.

The sword aura continued its momentum, sweeping past the screaming old woman. The old woman

‘s狰狞 (zhengning – ferocious/hideous) expression instantly froze, and she and her magical artifact were silently cleaved in two!

“What?”

Ancestor Xuan Sha and the other elders were horrified; they hadn’t expected Kai’s strength to be so terrifying!

“Quick! Activate the sect’s protective formation!” Ancestor Xuan Sha cried out in terror.

However, it was too late.

Kai’s figure moved like a ghost, his speed, amplified by the acceleration of time, exceeding their divine senses.

With each flash of sword light, an elder perished.

“No! Senior, spare us! It was that bitch Xiao Zi who offended you, it has nothing to do with us!”

an elder cried out in despair.

Kai’s eyes remained cold and unwavering. The sword light swept past, and the pleas ceased abruptly.

In the blink of an eye, only the Xuan Sha Ancestor remained in the arena.

He trembled, staring at Kai, who was like a god of death, his heart filled with endless regret and fear.

He never dreamed that his sect, with its thousand-year history, would suffer such annihilation because of the callous words of an inner disciple!

“Why…why…”

he asked hoarsely, still finding it hard to believe.

Kai looked at him and said calmly, “If a child is not raised properly, it is the father’s fault. If the teaching is not strict, it is the teacher’s laziness. Your Xuan Yin Sha Sect is crooked from top to bottom; you deserve this retribution.”

Before his words were finished, the Dragon-Slaying Sword had already transformed into a streak of light, piercing through the Xuan Sha Ancestor’s brow.

The Xuan Sha Ancestor’s eyes widened, and his body slowly fell. The last thing he saw was Kai’s indifferent figure as he sheathed his sword, and those words echoing in his mind.

Only in death did he understand that the root cause of the sect’s destruction was his and his elders’ usual indulgence of their disciples’ conduct and their own misconduct.

Kai didn’t even glance at the corpses scattered on the ground. His divine sense swept across the entire Xuan Yin Sha Sect, plundering its centuries-old treasure trove of resources.

After doing all this, he turned and left without hesitation, his figure disappearing into the vast sky.

Behind him, only a Xuan Yin Sha Sect, soaked in blood and utterly silent, remained.

The ancestors of the Xuan Yin Sha Sect, even in heaven, would never have imagined that the sect’s destruction would begin with a few sarcastic remarks from an inner disciple they considered their pride, directed at a “meddlesome” passerby.

“Boy, where to next?” the Crimson Cloud Demon Lord asked.

“Back to the Yama Heavenly Sect, of course, to absorb and refine these resources…”

Kai finished speaking and headed towards the Yama Heavenly Sect.

But after flying for only a short while, Kai suddenly felt a pang of fear, and then Cen Biqing’s dragon crystal within his body began to glow.

Kai was stunned, then his eyes blazed with excitement.

“The Demon Suppression Tower! The Demon Suppression Tower has appeared in the Ninth Heaven…”

With that, Kai followed the aura emanating from the dragon crystal and headed straight for the Demon Suppression Tower.

Following the increasingly intense light and clear senses emanating from the dragon crystal on his chest, Kai once again pinpointed the tower deep within a treacherous region of the Nine Heavens known as the “Void Rift”—the Demon-Suppressing Tower, a place that both haunted his dreams and instilled fear in him!

The tower remained majestic, soaring into the clouds, seemingly connecting heaven and earth.

At the four corners of its base, the four stone lions, inscribed with intricate celestial runes, seemed to possess a greater aura of liveliness and ferocity than when he had last seen them.
