Pay to Cultivate Immortality? My Sect is Completely Free - Chapter 74

Chapter 74: Four Hundred Thousand Against Sixty Thousand, the Advantage is Mine

Su Bai measured the size of Lingxiao Mountain while calculating some data in his mind. After a moment, he smiled slightly and said, “Stand firm; don’t fall over!”

“Senior, what are you trying to do?” Han Feiyu asked, still confused.

But in the next moment, he understood what Su Bai was about to do.

“Boom!!!”

The entire Lingxiao Mountain shook, as massive stones rolled down the peaks, producing a thunderous roar.

“Crack, crack, crack!!”

The ground split open, and countless fissures covered the edges of Lingxiao Mountain, these cracks continuously expanding like a spiderweb spreading outward.

Moments later, the whole mountain shuddered, nearly knocking Han Feiyu over.

“What is this…?” Han Feiyu was completely dumbfounded.

The entire Lingxiao Mountain was lifting into the air!

Su Bai extended one hand, transforming it into a gigantic energy arm that lifted the whole Lingxiao Mountain.

Just one hand was enough to support the entire mountain!

“How powerful!”

Han Feiyu was incredibly shocked. As a mere servant, how could he have ever witnessed such a realm of existence exert its full strength?

Alongside his shock, a strong yearning for power blossomed within him.

Legends say that beings at the Golden Core and Nascent Soul levels possess the ability to move mountains and fill seas, and indeed, these rumors are not unfounded! This is not an exaggeration; they truly have that power!

Of course, the mountain-moving capability of the Golden Core is incomparable to that of the Nascent Soul. An ordinary Golden Core Daoist can only lift a mountain that is a hundred feet high at best; anything larger would be too exhausting. At the Nascent Soul level, any mountain in the Empire can be easily lifted, a feat beyond the reach of ordinary mortals.

Although Su Bai is at the Golden Core Realm, his strength far exceeds that of an average Golden Core, making it a simple task for him to lift the thousand-foot-tall Lingxiao Mountain.

“Boom!”

As Su Bai exerted his abilities, the distant battle of the Nascent Souls also came to an end.

“Ah, Heavenly Dao Sect, just wait for me!”

The Supreme Elder of the Lingxiao Sect, gravely injured, fled into the distance, unwilling to hesitate and burning his own life force to accelerate his escape.

The Fire Qilin wanted to pursue, but could not catch up at all—unless it foolishly decided to burn its life as well for a mutual destruction tactic. Without overwhelming strength, it is indeed challenging for beings of the same realm to kill a Nascent Soul powerhouse.

Two Nascent Souls might not even be able to surround and kill a single Nascent Soul; only three could be reasonably assured of success.

After injuring the Supreme Elder of the Lingxiao Sect, the Fire Qilin returned. It held its head high, treading on empty air, draped in radiance, regal and imposing, with a contemptuous gaze overlooking all directions.

At the same time, it also shook its head at Su Bai, seemingly proving its strength to him.

“Not bad, not bad; I’ll add a little extra for you when we get back!”

Su Bai nodded, patted the Fire Qilin, and praised it.

“Roar!”

Upon hearing the words “extra,” the Fire Qilin immediately howled in excitement, its eyes shining brightly.

Following the last Shark Arm, they were starved for three days and nine meals. Now, with their current master, they devour ten tons a day! Ten tons, not ten meals!

“Come, carry this mountain back.”

Su Bai tossed the Lingxiao Mountain, and the Fire Qilin immediately caught it, happily running towards the Heavenly Dao Sect. Meanwhile, Su Bai took one last glance downward as he departed.

“Whoosh!”

He extended his hand, and a Mountain Gate was absorbed into his Storage Ring. Then, he left, not looking back.

At the Lingxiao Sect’s Mountain Gate, two disciples guarding the entrance exchanged glances. The once impressive Mountain Gate beside them was now left barren.

Turning around, they found the Lingxiao Mountain, which should have soared into the clouds, now completely empty, revealing a deep pit spanning dozens of miles ahead.

The Lingxiao Sect… had been stripped bare!

“Junior Brother… while the Sect Master and the Elders aren’t back yet, should we run?” the Senior Brother whispered cautiously.

“Run… where can we escape to?”The Junior Brother sniffled.

“We can’t run. When the Sect Master and the Elders return, we’ll be blamed for inadequately guarding the sect. It will be worse than death…” The Senior Brother said, his face dreary.

“The sect’s great formation and the Supreme Elder couldn’t hold out, and they’ll blame us, two Qi Refining Stage One disciples…” The Junior Brother sighed.

“The mountain peak is gone; the Sect Master will definitely fly into a rage. We’re just like helpless ants fearing for our lives. Running might give us a chance to survive, but if we stay, we’re certain to die,” the Senior Brother remarked.

“Where can we run to? No matter where we go, we’ll be caught and brought back,” the Junior Brother said, his face pale, staring into the dark future ahead.

“How about we run to the Heavenly Dao Sect?” After pondering for a long time, the Senior Brother suddenly gritted his teeth and suggested.

“Run to the Heavenly Dao Sect? Senior Brother, that’s our Lingxiao Sect’s arch-enemy!” The Junior Brother’s eyes widened in disbelief.

“It doesn’t matter; let’s just focus on saving our lives first,” the Senior Brother insisted.

“Run, hurry and run! When the Sect Master and the Elders return, everything will be over.”

The Senior Brother urged, pulling the Junior Brother to sprint towards the direction of the Heavenly Dao Sect.

“Senior Brother, the Heavenly Destiny Oath needs to be fulfilled within a day; otherwise, we don’t know when divine punishment will strike. Why don’t you eat first before we run?” the Junior Brother murmured with concern.

“Shut your crow’s mouth! Damn it! Ah!”

The two Qi Refining disciples stumbled rare and fell awkwardly due to being tripped by Stone.

………..

The Lingxiao Sect and the Heavenly Dao Sect are over a thousand miles apart, passing through several cities along the way.

At this moment, however, the people in those cities suddenly noticed that the sky had darkened.

Looking up, they all gasped in shock.

A massive mountain was being carried through the sky by a fiery red beast!

“That’s… that’s Lingxiao Mountain!”

Someone recognized the mountain.

Instantly, everyone was filled with fear!

You have to understand, the Lingxiao Sect atop Lingxiao Mountain is the absolute overlord of the surrounding area!

“What the hell happened?”

“Look, Lingxiao Mountain flew away!”

“Could it be that the Lingxiao Sect is moving?”

“The Lingxiao Sect hasn’t moved in hundreds of years, and I don’t see anyone from the Lingxiao Sect. Why do I feel like they were robbed?”

“Exactly, didn’t there just be a massive battle at the Lingxiao Sect? That scale must be that of a Nascent Soul Overlord, right?”

The crowd discussed heatedly, feeling utterly bewildered.

Who dares to provoke the Lingxiao Sect, this colossal entity?

The Empire is about to face a storm!

………..

In Qingzhou, on the Floating Island, the Old Man of Lingxiao Sect and numerous Elders and disciples looked mockingly at the three opposing factions.

“Yuntian Sect? Once the overlord of the Empire, how come you’ve brought so few people now?”

“To the royal family’s Old Monster, is this all you royal members can muster?”

“And what about the Heavenly Dao Sect? Hiding in your turtle shell, what’s that worth? Where’s your Sect Master, Su Bai?”

The Old Ancestor of Lingxiao Sect swept his gaze across the surroundings, his demeanor arrogant, and his tone filled with sarcasm and disdain.

The combined forces of the three major factions amounted to a mere sixty thousand at most!

Not only that, but in addition to the numerical advantage, the Lingxiao Sect had rapidly developed over the past century; their core strengths in Golden Core and Foundation Establishment far exceeded that of the Yuntian Sect and the royal family of the Empire combined.

As for the Heavenly Dao Sect, apart from Su Bai, they were nothing more than a swarm of ants!

Now, he was about to prove that the Lingxiao Sect is the one and only overlord of the Empire!

Four hundred thousand against sixty thousand; the advantage is mine!
