Chapter 650: Chapter 458: Liquidation

No one could have imagined that the once peaceful Golden Academy had suddenly become a battlefield filled with endless slaughter. The accumulated tensions between the Golden Academy and the people from Xuanxian Continent had reached a boiling point, and Li Yi’s plight was merely a microcosm of it; most people had suffered oppression at the hands of these cultivators.

Although they acted under the guise of friendliness and spared lives, they had plundered countless treasures and opportunities during this time.

Now, the appearance of Wu the Taoist had disrupted the balance of power between the two sides. Under such circumstances, Vice Dean Sun Boxiu naturally chose to wage war without hesitation. If they allowed the opposing side to completely siphon off all the valuable resources while thoroughly understanding their foundation, then the Golden Academy would truly be doomed.

If they could annihilate all these people here today, the individuals from Xuanxian Continent might instead grow wary and fearful.

At this very moment, artillery roared, beams of energy flew in every direction, and the battlefield descended into utter chaos.

Amidst this chaotic skirmish, six Divinity Transformation Realm experts joined forces, attempting to activate a transmission array to summon Mahayana Realm experts for a cross-dimensional confrontation. As long as Wu Yong could be slain, all problems would be resolved.

"Mr. Wu, kill those Divinity Transformation Realm cultivators but leave the transmission array intact. Let’s see if their experts dare to cross dimensions to confront us." Hidden among the clouds, Cang Erzi transmitted his voice, revealing his thoughts: "Above all, do not destroy the teleportation array."

"Why is that?" Wu the Taoist’s expression shifted slightly, showing a bit of confusion.

Cang Erzi’s voice was calm as he explained: "How long would it take experts like us to kill Divinity Transformation cultivators?"

"A single breath is sufficient," Wu the Taoist replied.

"That is precisely what the other side believes as well. If we swiftly slaughter the Divinity Transformation experts and destroy the array, it would unmistakably signal our fear of them crossing dimensions. On the contrary, by leaving the array intact, they might hesitate to come through. Even if they send someone as a test, it would likely be a single individual—nothing to fear." Cang Erzi elaborated, "Only by mixing truth with deception can we intimidate powerful foes. After all, our strength is not yet fully restored. We must not take unnecessary risks. Once my power is fully recovered, I’ll personally visit Xuanxian Continent to kill an immortal and assess their strength."

"I see," Wu the Taoist now understood.

Indeed, elders are wiser with age. Just moments earlier, he had only thought about quickly killing the Divinity Transformation experts and destroying the transmission array, failing to consider this angle.

To ensure absolute safety, Wu the Taoist immediately produced a bronze furnace.

This was the Heaven and Earth Furnace, the treasured artifact of the Daoqi Sect.

Though this Dao Artifact had been heavily damaged, it had recovered some of its powers after days of nurturing and repair. While it could not compare to its peak state, it was more than enough to annihilate a few Divinity Transformation Realm cultivators.

"Go," he commanded.

The Primordial Spirit Flower within Wu the Taoist glimmered, and the bronze furnace transformed into a streak of starfire, shooting toward the six Divinity Transformation Realm cultivators.

"What is this?"

These Divinity Transformation experts sensed the terrifying danger heading their way. As their Divine Sense scanned the object, they realized it was an old, battered bronze furnace. The furnace flew rapidly, igniting tiny sparks of fire. At a glance, its power didn’t seem particularly overwhelming. In fact, it appeared as though a slight force could shatter it.

Yet, this incoming attack left all six Divinity Transformation experts horrified.

Upon impact, their defensive treasures shattered instantly. Under the illumination of the tiny sparks emitted by the furnace, their bodies disintegrated without the slightest opportunity to react. These Divinity Transformation experts, tasked with guarding the transmission array, perished instantly, leaving no remains behind.

Moreover, the power Wu the Taoist employed was meticulously controlled, sparing the transmission array from damage.

"How... how could this be...?" Taixian Weng, witnessing this scene, was nearly scared out of his Primordial Spirit.

Six entire Divinity Transformation experts, augmented with treasure-level artifacts, were completely obliterated in a single strike? The sight was utterly terrifying.

Wu the Taoist’s gaze shifted, finally landing on Taixian Weng: "You’re the most scheming one here, always plotting against others. But, considering you still have some value, I’ll spare you for now. However, you must hand over all your cultivation techniques and everything in your possession. If you hide anything, you know the consequences."

"I wouldn’t dare, absolutely not."

Taixian Weng was drenched in cold sweat. He hurriedly retrieved a Spirit Stone and refashioned it into a jade slip, inscribing all the cultivation methods he knew with his Divine Sense.

He then presented the jade slip along with his storage spiritual device with both hands.

Wu the Taoist waved his hand from afar, and the two items floated into his possession. Examining the jade slip, he found it to contain authentic cultivation techniques. Taixian Weng’s primary method was the Nine Transmutation Immortal Technique, corresponding to the nine realms of cultivation. Each transmutation aligned with a realm. However, only the first six transmutations were recorded, enabling advancement up to the Transcendance Tribulation Stage.

That was expected.

For a Divinity Transformation Realm cultivator to possess the majority of an immortal technique was already impressive. To acquire a complete inheritance, one would need to visit a large sect. No one would carry a complete legacy around, flaunting it everywhere.

"Senior, may I beg for my life to be spared?" Taixian Weng cautiously pleaded.

"No," Wu the Taoist replied, his Daoist robe sweeping the air.

A radiance of five colors enveloped the scene.

Taixian Weng’s pupils constricted sharply, but it was too late. With his strength, how could he possibly escape from the Tri-Floral Realm Wu the Taoist?

The five-colored radiance swept over him.

Taixian Weng’s body was immediately dissolved by the power of the Five Elements. Amid his piercing screams, his Primordial Spirit couldn’t withstand the cyclical forces of the Five Elements or the smelting of Heaven and Earth. He vanished completely in an instant, leaving not even the slightest trace behind.
