Chapter 234: Chapter 210: The Manor Master’s Word is Evidence (Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!)_4
No sooner had the voice faded.
The bloodied form of the Ten Thousand Soul Ancestor appeared out of thin air.
The Sect Master of the Ten Thousand Soul Sect looked wretched, his robe soaked in blood and his left arm cleanly severed as if by a sharp blade, spilling copious amounts of fresh blood.
Gazing upon the ruins of the Ten Thousand Soul Sect and the majority of the disciples fallen, the eyes of the Ten Thousand Soul Ancestor turned a deep red.
He looked toward the entrance of the mountain gate, meeting Gu Peng’s indifferent gaze.
“Why did you destroy my Ten Thousand Soul Sect!”
The Ten Thousand Soul Ancestor roared in fury.
Gu Peng spoke coldly, “Assassinating the Princely Heir is a capital offense. By the manor master’s command, eradicate the Ten Thousand Soul Sect!”
“What proof do you have!?”
The Ten Thousand Soul Ancestor’s face twisted fiercely.
Gu Peng replied, “The manor master’s word is the proof!”
The Evil Slayer Blade struck again.
Sky-reaching Blade Wind cleaved through heaven and earth’s expanse, its terrible power completely locking onto the Ten Thousand Soul Ancestor who felt a frigid chill all over, his face filled with terror, already sensing the breath of death.
“If you want to kill me, let Gu Qingfeng come in person. You don’t have the ability—”
Immediately, the Ten Thousand Soul Ancestor summoned the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, and a terrifying, eerie figure emerged abruptly, shrouded in surging black mist that obscured the sky, akin to the descent of a demonic god.
The Ten Thousand Soul Banner was the supreme treasure of the Ten Thousand Soul Sect, forged over thousands of years by successive giants of the sect before falling into the hands of the Ten Thousand Soul Ancestor, it had slain countless souls to enhance the power of this precious artifact.
Now unleashed, its might was enormous.
“Within my Ten Thousand Soul Banner, there are one hundred and eight thousand eerie beings, eighteen of the Floating Tomb class, and even a half-step Yama class eerie being that fears not even the Transformation Realm powerhouses.
Today, I will devour you and strengthen my Ten Thousand Soul Banner!”
Having torn off all pretense, the Ten Thousand Soul Ancestor had nothing to hold back. Urging on the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, myriad eerie beings surged forth crazily, flooding toward Gu Peng.
But in the very next breath,
Sky-reaching Blade Wind descended.
All the eerie beings melted away like snow in the spring sun, letting out piteous screams as they dissipated.
What one hundred and eight thousand eerie beings.
What eighteen Floating Tomb class eerie beings.
Before this blade, they all perished.
Only the half-step Yama class eerie being was now struggling desperately, attempting to withstand this sky-piercing, earth-shattering strike.
In the face of absolute power, any struggle was futile.
In less than a few breaths, the half-step Yama class eerie being let out a wail and was directly slain by the blade on the spot.
The blade wind’s force did not stop, slamming fiercely into the Ten Thousand Soul Ancestor.
A powerhouse on the verge of the Transformation Realm, faced with this strike, his body suddenly exploded, leaving him with no place for burial.
The mountain gate annihilated.
The already shattered gate of the Ten Thousand Soul Sect was broken even more thoroughly under this blade, and the barely surviving disciples and elders also perished on the spot.
Looking at the Ten Thousand Soul Sect, now reduced to complete ruins, Gu Peng’s chest heaved violently, his face, too, showing a look of shock.
“The manor master’s divine might!”
Gu Peng was well aware of the strength of the Evil Slayer Blade.
But however well he knew it, it was not as shocking as using the Evil Slayer Blade himself to annihilate the Ten Thousand Soul Sect in two strikes.
After all, the Ten Thousand Soul Sect was among the top sects in Ling Province, even if not quite on par with an Immortal Sect like the Taisu Sect, it was still extraordinary, with many strong members in the sect.
Such a mighty sect had been extinguished by two strikes from the Evil Slayer Blade.
Gu Peng understood clearly that his decimation of the Ten Thousand Soul Sect was not due to his own strength but due to the divine might of the Evil Slayer Blade.
What nearly Transformation Realm.
Before such power, they were all but jokes.
Gu Peng glanced at the ruins of the Ten Thousand Soul Sect one last time, took the Ten Thousand Soul Banner left by the Ten Thousand Soul Ancestor, and then turned and left.
