Chapter 57

When Minghe unleashed his killing intent, the temperature dropped and snowflakes began to fall from the sky. However, no one was in the mood to appreciate it, and this sudden appearance of snowflakes actually filled them with fear.

They were like a normal snowflake, but instead of being pure white, they were black as ink and full of danger. This was the solid manifestation of Minghe's killing intent, which showed the depth of his comprehension in the Way of Killing.

"Decimate!" Minghe shouted. He had condensed his killing intent in his hands and launched it towards the closest cultivators, so they had to gather their defenses immediately. While the snowflakes appeared harmless enough, in this intense life-and-death moment, it would actually invade the enemy's Original Spirit and once that happened it was lethal.

Moving quickly and without hesitation, Minghe launched another attack at the Sages-to-be. This was a battle of the live and death and there was no room for mistakes. If they didn't die with his first hit, he would have to keep going until he was the last man standing.

The cultivator hadn't expected Minghe to become fixated on him and he turned to run into the crowd. However, he was no match for the speed of Minghe. "Puu!" That cultivator turned into a b.l.o.o.d.y fog under Minghe's attack. Fourth one down... Looking at the remaining 64 Individual Cultivators standing in front of him, Minghe made a mental note.

Seeing that Minghe had killed four of them in just moments, the Wild Wind Ancestor immediately shouted, "Watch out everybody! Don't give him the chance to get close to you. We must fight together, with our Magic Weapons." Upon hearing this, the remaining cultivators recovered from their shock and took out their Magic Weapons, and went after Minghe.

Minghe sneered as he clapped his hands together and a huge supernatural power burst forth. He chanted, "The Heaven as 'Qian', the Earth as 'Kun'. Heaven and Earth become one, all creatures.... freeze." After Minghe had chanted the Law of Heaven and Earth, everything seemed to be frozen in place. Everything was still, including the Magic Weapons and the Individual Cultivators wielding them, fearful expressions appearing on their faces.

This time, Minghe wasn't going to show any mercy to these cultivators. Using nearly 30% of his supernatural power, Minghe held the Yuantu Sword and Abi Sword in each hand, while he began to slowly chant, "Heaven and Earth gather in my hands. The Origin for a ma.s.sacre is now. My swords, merge as one. Attack!"

Enveloped with the endless power from Heaven and Earth, and the frightening killing spirit, Minghe struck out with both swords simultaneously. Countless sword auras came to his opponents. The cultivators panicked and rushed to release their supernatural power, with the futile hope of getting out.

"Rumble!!" Countless explosions could be heard, back to back, along with the screams of the cultivators. "Ah!!" "No!!" Finally, there was silence. Dead bodies and mutilated Spiritual Treasures were scattered everywhere. There were less than ten cultivators remaining.

Looking at his handiwork, a smile of satisfaction appeared on his slightly pale face. He had consumed a lot of his power for this attack, 30% for using the Law of Heaven and Earth while another 30% for using both of his swords. Fortunately, he was satisfied with the results.

Minghe was able to show such a great power through his sword by combining 30% of his power with the Law of Heaven and Earth and the Law of Killing while merging the Origin he just started to comprehend into his attack.

This horrendous attack shattered any hope the remaining Individual Cultivators had left, and astonished all living beings of Untainted Land. They suddenly realized that they didn't know if they could withstand his next attack. Laozi, who was known to be pure and peaceful, couldn't remain calm this time. He wouldn't have paid much attention if Minghe was only at the Peak Level of Sage-to-be. However, he had never imagined Minghe would be capable of killing over ten Sages-to-be with only one attack.

As the leader of the Three Pure Ones and the first disciple of Hongjun, Laozi was confident that he was the best because of his n.o.ble origin, his strong force, and abundant Spiritual Treasures. However, Minghe's existence had hurt his pride, Minghe's power was beyond what Laozi had ever known. Power! It was the first time for Laozi to yearn for more power.

The Honoured Lord of the Origin was even angrier and desired to become a Sage even more desperately. He couldn't care less about Minghe's ability, since anyone, not a Sage, was just a nonent.i.ty. Not to mention that a cultivator so keen on killing would struggle with becoming a Sage, even one that had obtained the Hong Meng Immortal Qi.

If the Honoured Lord of the Origin knew that Minghe didn't plan to use the Hong Meng Immortal Qi to become a Sage, he would be even more irate. The Hong Meng Immortal Qi was the Foundation of the Great Way, which he treasured most of all, and it was seen as useless by Minghe. If he knew this, his mind of Taoism might become unstable.

In contrast with the other two, Tongtian wasn't jealous of Minghe at all, instead, it stirred up his desire for a good fight. This thought was quite rare, if Laozi and the Honoured Lord of the Origin could respect others as Tongtian did, they wouldn't have separated during the Battle of G.o.ds Invest.i.ture.

Jieyin and Zhunti, from the far west, also felt the great power of Minghe, as did the G.o.ddess Nyuwa in the Heavenly Court. Jieyin accepted what happened as Tongtian did, but Zhunti was different. His jealousy was on par with the Honoured Lord of the Origin's. As for the G.o.ddess Nyuwa, as a female and without a superior power, she felt a streak of fear coursing through her.

G.o.ddess Nyuwa wasn't the only one feeling terrified, like all living beings of Untainted Land, especially the Individual Cultivators standing in front of Minghe. One of whom was the Wild Wind Ancestor, who had sworn to kill Minghe, however, he no longer wanted to have anything to do with the Hong Meng Immortal Qi. He just simply wanted to leave here alive.

Unfortunately, Minghe wouldn't let any of them live. As the old saying goes, to nip it in the bud. Although Minghe didn't care if they sought revenge on him, he couldn't protect every one of his disciples if they were to turn their attacks on them.

With a terrified expression on his face and his words laced with fear, the Wild Wind Ancestor said, "Minghe... my Fellow Taoist, I am really sorry I offended you, and I hope that you can forgive my actions. Since you have gotten the Hong Meng Immortal Qi, we will be on our way." It was a wonder, that while facing certain death, he was able to remain calm.

Noticing the hope in their eyes, Minghe sneered while saying, "Do you think there is any possibility that I will let you go?" With the help of his Good Separation and Evil Separation, Minghe had almost fully recovered his strength.

The ten over Individual Cultivators paled at Minghe's words. They had never expected that Minghe would want their lives and they regretted having such greedy hearts. Unfortunately, what's done is done and now there was no turning back. One has to reap what one sowed.

The Wild Wind Ancestor understood that Minghe wasn't going to let them go, so, he looked at the other Sage-to-be beside him as they all turned and ran in different directions. This way, Minghe couldn't run after all of them and some might have a chance to survive, which was better than just waiting for death to fall upon them.

Once one ran the others followed suit, Minghe laughed and said, "It's too late to run! Yin-Yang Blood Killing Formation, rise!" Both, the Yuantu Sword and Abi Sword, were thrown into the air and a large Formation appeared, enveloping all of the escaping cultivators.

In the Formation, all the cultivators despaired, in the face of death even a Sage-to-be would feel scared. The Wild Wind Ancestor realized that there was no way out for him, so he threatened, "Minghe, since you won't give us a chance to live, I won't let you go so easily even if it costs me my life."

Self explode! The Wild Wind Ancestor had learned from Hongyun how to self explode. He knew that Minghe wouldn't die from the explosion, but if he could hurt Minghe, even just a little, he wouldn't die in vain. However, Minghe didn't give him a chance to do so.

In one breath, all of the remaining cultivators died. The Wild Wind Ancestor looked at Minghe, who had pierced him with a spear, in disbelief, and his two Separations that had killed the others instantly, he realized that Minghe hadn't used his entire strength just now. Thinking he could rob and kill Minghe was a joke, and his regret would be his last thought in his final moment.

Minghe recalled his Good Separation and Evil Separation, smiling when he looked at the dead bodies scattered around him, this must be the intention of the Way of Heaven or Hongjun. There wasn't going to be many skilled cultivators left in the Untainted Land after Minghe had killed all of the 68 Sages-to-be. This way, the whole land would remain peaceful.

Minghe removed the Formation and after clearing the field, he left with his Yuantu Sword and Abi Sword. Although Minghe hadn't come across anyone that was a match for him in this battle, he had at least gained a deeper comprehension of the Law of Killing. It was time for him to start an enlightenment, but before going back, there was still one more thing he needed to do.
