At this time, Hong Xuan's emotions were in disarray, he himself could not explain his feelings towards this bead either. There was happiness from obtaining it, anger from it that had caused a great war in the Cultivation Realm, and even endless grief and sorrow from the Soul Devouring Bead s that had indirectly killed countless disciples of the buddhist faith.

Hong Xuan gradually regained his resolve as he tidied up his emotions. Since things had already come to this, there was no point in overthinking it.

"Humph, Kunlun Faction, Penglai Island, Sword Sect, Luofu Cave, First Heavenly Palace!"

Hong Xuan, who was rushing towards the Transfer Array once again, no longer saw anyone in his line of sight. His Spiritual Sense spread out, and it turned out that everyone had already surpassed the limit in this short period of time.

At this time, there were still a few thousand cultivators alive, and Transfer Array could only send twenty people at a time. In a situation where there were too few people and too few wolves, it would become a fierce battle.

Suddenly, Hong Xuan's face lit up. His Spiritual Sense had found over a hundred disciples of the Buddhist Sect at the edge of the Western Sea. At this moment, they were being led by three elders to kill dozens of disciples of the Five Sect.

However, Hong Xuan immediately realized that something was wrong. Normally, the people being hunted should have scattered in all directions to escape, as each of them could increase the chances of survival. However, the dozens of people being hunted actually started to retreat in an orderly manner, moving towards a certain direction.

It was one thing if they were from the same sect, but the disciples of different sects could still cooperate with each other. Clearly, they were plotting something!

Hong Xuan couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat as he thought of this. His Spiritual Sense quickly stretched out in the direction where the disciples of the five sects fled to.

Indeed!

There were thousands of cultivators hiding in the void a hundred miles away from the buddhist disciples. The cultivators of the buddhist sects might not have noticed them, but how could they hide from the Soul Devouring Bead and Hong Xuan, whose spiritual awareness was even sharper?

The shocked Hong Xuan immediately used his Sound Transmitting to sense the three elders, but due to the violent effects of the energy, the information couldn't be transmitted to the three elders' minds.

Hong Xuan stamped his feet heavily. He could only rush forward while sending a message to all the Buddhist disciples, hoping that they would receive the news and inform them to escape.

Although this hope was very slim, there was still one in ten thousand hope that Hong Xuan wouldn't give up.

While flying, Hong Xuan monitored the movement in front of him. He saw the remaining fire spark of the Buddhist Sect fall one by one under the siege of the five sects. Hong Xuan was burning with anxiety and wished that he could fly over with a pair of wings.

Amongst the five sects, the Heavenly First Palace's cultivators were the craziest. In a disadvantageous situation, they were willing to self-destruct to kill their opponents, greatly accelerating the death and injury rate of the Buddhist Sect's disciples.

Most likely, they had heard from the cultivators that Hong Xuan was the one who had killed Ye Zhang Ye.

Finally, they could see the battle ahead. Hong Xuan let out a sigh of relief; he had finally made it.

But before Hong Xuan could rejoice, the Kunlun Faction disciple in charge of observing the surrounding situation had already discovered his figure.

Sect Leader and the Elders of the Five Great Sects, who had been waiting at the side for a long time, immediately surrounded Wu Tie, preventing him from rushing into the ring.

This was also part of the Five Great Sects' conspiracy. With the Five Great Sects' immense strength, even though most of their elites had been destroyed, they wouldn't be unable to deal with the remaining one hundred or so Buddhist Sect members even after attacking with all their might.

The Five Great Sects' leaders were using this opportunity to lure Hong Xuan out and capture him in one fell swoop to prevent future troubles!

Thus, ever since they set up a trap for the Buddhist Sect, the five sects had already targeted Hong Xuan.

Hong Xuan's state of mind was not too different from Sect Leader's. His Spiritual Sense scanning had naturally been discovered as well. Hong Xuan's continuous scanning was tantamount to reporting his location to the five sects!

Under the situation where they had complete control of Hong Xuan's movements, the five sects were not worried about Hong Xuan escaping at all.

How could Hong Xuan, who was under fire, think of this. Even if he had thought of it, with Hong Xuan's personality, it was impossible for him to abandon the disciples. Even if he knew it was a fire pit, he still had to keep his eyes open and jump into it!

The remaining members of the Buddhist Sect were finally gathered together. Only then did the leaders of the five sects heave a sigh of relief.

From their point of view, since the situation had developed to this point, the Buddhist Sect was already at the end of their road.

Under the full force of the five sects' attacks, the buddhist disciples' defenses were immediately tightened. The three elders roared repeatedly, frantically trying to protect the disciples behind them, not even sparing themselves to defend their own bodies. But in the eyes of the five sects, this was just the last struggle.

Very soon, the last Buddhist Sect disciple was hit by dozens of flying swords all over his body. His eyes were wide open as he collapsed on the ground. The Five Great Sects' plan to annihilate the Buddhist Sect was also down to Hong Xuan.

Hong Xuan's heart felt as if it had been stabbed by a knife when he saw his disciples dying with unwillingness and grief.

That feeling of helplessness from a thousand miles away engulfed the clarity in his heart.

When the last Buddhist Sect disciple fell, Hong Xuan's last bit of rationality collapsed.

It was as if the buddhist disciples were the backbone of his defensive line of reasoning. Now that the pillar had collapsed, Hong Xuan's rationality had completely disappeared.

Hong Xuan let out a sorrowful roar into the sky, and his sorrowful and long howl shook the land. The lightning that filled the sky also seemed to feel the unspeakable anger and sadness in Hong Xuan's heart, and it also seemed like he was sending off the buddhist sons.

Two streams of blood flowed down Hong Xuan's face. Two twisted and hideous dragons were embroidered on his crimson cassock. They seemed like they were about to tear apart to explain the meaning of their existence.

Hong Xuan's eyes swept in a circle in front of him. There was no killing intent or brutality like everyone expected. There was only an endless silence and emptiness.

This strange gaze caused the hearts of everyone surrounding him to jump and they all had a bad premonition. The strong uneasiness forced them to take a step back, as if the one standing in their midst was not the buddhist lord but a god of slaughter from this region.

When the last Buddhist Sect disciple fell, Hong Xuan's last shred of rationality also crumbled.

The Kunlun Faction, Sect Leader Yu Xuan, forcefully suppressed the growing unease in his heart, and took a small step forward, saying: "Master Hong Xuan, what happened this time was actually a misunderstanding, but at this point, we are unable to turn back. How about this, you disperse your primordial spirit, and we promise to bury everyone in the Buddhist Sect well, what do you think? "

/p p But he would never get an answer from Hong Xuan.

All of the people present felt an intense pain in their heads. Those disciples with lower cultivations had already fallen to the ground, their souls scattered away.

The ones with higher cultivation barely opened their eyes and what they saw shocked them: Hong Xuan suddenly appeared in front of Yu Xuan. He expressionlessly swung his Vajra Pestle and fiercely smashed it down on Yu Xuan's head while he was still in a daze.

The poor Yu Xuan was waiting for Hong Xuan's reply. Who knew he would be waiting for such a strange attack?

Under Hong Xuan's care, the soul attacks that Yu Xuan received were a hundred times more violent than the others. Without any defense, he was smashed into smithereens by the vajra scepter along with his Nascent Infant!

Originally, Hong Xuan didn't have much time to obtain Soul Devouring Bead, so he could only use it for AOE attacks. He wasn't able to deal with individual targets alone, so at most, he could focus his attacks on a smaller area.

Taking into account the fact that the remaining disciples of the Buddhist Sect were lucky enough to survive, Hong Xuan didn't carry out any soul attacks, so he didn't have to worry about anything anymore.

Hong Xuan's soul was damaged greatly after activated the Soul Devouring Bead at full power, and he was on the verge of losing his soul.

After all, at the Soul Devouring Bead level, at the same time that it brought about a huge amount of lethality, it also consumed a lot of Soul Power as well.

With Hong Xuan's cultivation level, being able to attack without dying was already a miracle!

Hong Xuan also understood that the attacks of Soul Devouring Bead would definitely consume a large amount of Soul Power, but he never expected it to be this much!

Hong Xuan tried his best to restrain his soul from dissipating. While everyone around was still recovering, Hong Xuan quickly moved.

At this time, he didn't even dare to use that extremely powerful Handprint Technique, afraid that he would die on the spot if he wasn't careful.

He wasn't afraid of death, and he already had the awareness of death.

However, dying in such a humiliating manner here, dying from heavy injuries under the encirclement of the five sects, was something that his dignity as the sect master of the number one sect in the Cultivation Realm could not accept.

When the last Buddhist Sect disciple fell, Hong Xuan's last shred of rationality also crumbled.

Every time someone was killed, Hong Xuan would put away their Storage Ring and Magic Treasures, including Yu Xuan.

It was not that Hong Xuan still coveted magical equipment, but it was to reduce the strength of the five sects!

If he had been lucky enough to survive, he would have had to seek revenge from the five sects!

Now, every time they collected a magic treasure, their strength would weaken by a bit, and the resistance towards revenge in the future would decrease by a bit as well!

Finally, some of the higher cultivation members of the five sects were the first to recover from the soul tremors.

Hong Xuan knew that if he didn't leave now, it would be too late.

Hong Xuan shot a fierce glare at the crowd, as if trying to memorize their appearances at the bottom of his heart. Then, he turned around and sped off in the direction he came from.

At the last glance before their departure, Hong Xuan saw that the cultivators outside of the five sects were still fighting over who should be sent out first.

He sighed in his heart: It was because of their selfishness and greed that led to such a tragic ending today. He didn't expect that they were still fighting over a sequence.

Now, Hong Xuan actually hoped that the five sects would be able to escape. Only then would he be able to personally kill them for revenge.

There was a reason why Hong Xuan didn't go to the Transfer Array and instead flew back towards the continent.

The Buddhist Sect was the number one sect in the Cultivation Realm for countless years, how could it not leave a path for itself?

In a forest not too far away from the Buddhist Sect, there was a small-scaled Transfer Array secretly built by its senior. It was used to inform the disciples of the Buddhist Sect in times of crisis.

It was just that even the elders of the Buddhist Sect did not expect that its first and only user would be the head of the Buddhist Sect, the last person remaining from the Buddhist Sect.

Hong Xuan finally reached the Transfer Array after using all his strength to control the Buddha's Nascent Soul.

However, he was in a terrible condition. His soul had been severely injured, but had not been healed yet. He was on the verge of collapse. The buddhist soul had been constantly firing energy and was on the verge of collapse.
