C42 For Heaven's Sake

"It's not just you, you have a way to increase your strength"

Yem Lia smiled faintly and pointed. His body, which was about to explode after being frozen by Ji Baihua, turned into a bloody mist after a bang.

The bloody mist didn't disappear. It started to roll violently, as if something was about to come out of it.

Ji Baihua frowned and glanced at the blood mist. After a long time, she spoke in a cold tone, "Blood sacrifice? You actually cultivated the blood sacrifice right under the nose of the Tao Alliance. It seems like you have already become a devil."

"Hmph, you self-proclaimed righteous people, how do you know how powerful this technique is?"

Yem Lia looked at Ji Baihua with disdain, the flames in his eyes dancing. He only heard him say faintly, "Martial arts cultivation and body cultivation are both cultivation, but it is only because body cultivation grows. It is more powerful than martial arts cultivation. You call it demonic arts because of fear. What's the meaning of this? "

Ji Baihua did not speak. She just looked at Yem Lia indifferently. No one could tell what kind of emotion was in her calm eyes.

"What is it? Are you speechless? Hahaha, silence? This is what you call the basis for accusing others?"

Yem Lia seemed to have gone mad. He laughed loudly, then opened his mouth and took a deep breath. The blood mist in front of him, which had been shattered by his own body, was sucked into his stomach.

As the last drop of blood mist floated into his mouth, his aura began to rise rapidly.

Although he had not broken through to the Soul Formation Stage in the end, that kind of power was not much weaker than Ji Baihua's.

"What a pity. Even if he made such a sacrifice, he still did not reach that step. However, it should be enough to deal with you."

He laughed loudly and did not put Ji Baihua in his eyes at all.

Ji Baihua naturally did not put him in her eyes. She only faintly glanced in the direction of Yem Lia. But the focus of their attention was not Yem Lia, but the Great Elder behind him. Or rather, it was the Dragon Head Staff in the Great Elder's hand.

The Dragon Head Staff that was carved had lost its previous jet-black luster. It had become no different from a dead tree, and on the face of the Great Elder... As the light of the Dragon Head Staff dimmed, it seemed to have aged significantly. He looked like a dying old man who was about to die. There was not the slightest bit of the Dao Bone Immortal Wind without the Cultivator.

The corner of her mouth curled into a disdainful sneer when she thought about how the Great Elder's staff had touched Yem Lia's Nascent Infant Stage.

"So that's how it is." Ji Baihua suddenly said.

Yem Lia was stunned for a moment and immediately understood that the other party must have seen through his trick. He immediately became complacent and said, "How is it? You didn't expect it, did you? You don't think that I'm stupid enough to cultivate devil arts on my own body, do you? I don't want to die so early under the surveillance of you righteous sects."

" I really didn't think of that. " Ji Baihua said lightly, "I didn't think that you would come up with such a method to set up a new world on a magic treasure. I also didn't expect that there would be someone who would pay such a huge price for you."

"For the Ghost Shadow Sect, this old man will do anything for you." At this moment, the Great Elder spoke from behind Yem Lia.

His voice had also become extremely old and weak.

Yem Lia seemed even more pleased with himself. He continued to smile and said, "The Dragon Head Staff is the medium, and the Great Elder's Blood Essence is the catalyst. When I need it, this devil art can be absorbed into my body at any time. Humph, don't say that you are just an Early Soul Formation cultivator. I'm not afraid of even those old monsters from the Blossoms Palace from a thousand years ago. "

"This cultivation technique is indeed overbearing. I really can't defeat you." Ji Baihua said sincerely, but her eyes became incomparably cold, "But do you know why devil techniques are called devil techniques?"

"It is not because it cultivates body techniques, nor is it because body techniques are more powerful than spiritual techniques, nor is it because body techniques forcefully absorb the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth into one's body. It is so much more powerful than natural resources... Have you... eaten human flesh?"

As the last sentence was said, Ji Baihua's body... An incomparably sharp killing intent soared into the sky. Her clear voice, cultivation can only be called cultivation by taking one step at a time and steadily fighting. One step into the sky was called heaven defying and heaven defying. And the righteous sects you speak of usually do one thing... That is... to enforce justice on behalf of heaven! "

"What? The Sect Master is actually cultivating a demonic technique?"

"He cultivates a demonic technique and eats human flesh?"

"It's over. Our Ghost Shadow Sect is finished. If this matter is spread out, the entire Cultivation World will attack us together..."

Before Yem Lia could react, the disciples of his sect had started to become restless.

Among these disciples, except for the deacon who had barely reached the Golden Core Stage, the oldest among them was only thirty to forty years old. Many people had only heard of the Barren State in the North Pole on the continent, where all the desolate people were called Devil Clan. Because they cultivated demonic arts.

However, what they knew was limited to that. No one knew that there were conditions for cultivating demonic arts, such as... eating human flesh.

An evil aura condensed between Yem Lia's brows. It rushed into the clouds and eventually turned into a sharp sword that scattered in all directions. His eyes were focused on the sword intent of this sword. It went straight for Ji Baihua, "Even if you say it like a flower falling from the sky, you will still die today!"

"You are already possessed by the devil, I will also kill you today!" Ji Baihua did not give in at all, but compared to Yem Lia's anger, she seemed to be even calmer.

The sword between Yem Lia's brows became sharper and sharper. He did not waste any more time arguing with Ji Baihua. Instead, he turned around and said to the Great Elder who looked like he was about to die, "Are you ready?"

"Actually not yet." The Great Elder smiled bitterly. His tone became a little sad and reluctant, but in the end, these emotions turned into determination, "But, now."

"I will remember you."

Yem Lia said coldly. There was no emotion in his tone. It was as if he had changed into a completely different person. Then, he grabbed the Great Elder's shoulder. A strange scene appeared. Just as his palm touched the Great Elder's body... The Great Elder's body shriveled up at a visible rate. In just a moment, the Great Elder, who was only six feet tall, suddenly became half shorter. His body also shrunk by half.

Ji Baihua's eyes focused and her face was filled with disbelief.

She could feel that in that instant, all of the Great Elder's cultivation base had been absorbed by Yem Lia. Not only that, Yem Lia had also absorbed the Great Elder's Blood Essence.

"Didn't you ask me if I have eaten human flesh before? I will eat it now for you to see, hahahaha..."

Yem Lia had gone mad. He laughed wildly. The last trace of cultivation base in the Great Elder's body was sucked into his body. The Great Elder's body had shrunk to one-third of its original size.

After that, under everyone's shocked gaze, the palm that he placed on the Great Elder's body... With a light squeeze, a slight cracking sound was heard, and the Great Elder's body broke into pieces. It turned into a bloody mist that filled the sky, but Ning Er did not scatter. It was exactly the same as the condition of Yem Lia's body.

Hiss...

Yem Lia opened his mouth and took a deep breath. The blood mist quickly entered his mouth.

"Ah, Sect Master has eaten someone!"

Someone screamed and fear immediately spread out from his voice. Then, fear spread like a plague in the crowd.

"Hurry up and run, you might be eaten if you're a step late..."

Countless disciples of the Ghost Shadow Sect were scrambling to escape. The scene was extremely chaotic.

"Leave? Where to?"

Yem Lia snorted coldly. He moved his body and appeared in front of the fastest man. He casually raised his hand and the man appeared in front of him. His palm also came out from the man's back. He stood there covered in blood, holding a beating heart in his hand.

"Traitors like you usually fight with each other over the resources in our sect. Now that our sect is in trouble, all you want to do is run away? Such a waste! You might as well kill him and use him as my spiritual energy to increase my strength! "

Yem Lia said indifferently, his cold eyes sweeping across those disciples who were about to run away. He had placed himself on the moral high ground, but he had forgotten about it. These people didn't flee because of the sect, but because of their Sect Chief. They had already lost the most basic human nature as humans.

"Master of Blossoms Palace, please save our lives. We are all innocent. Please."

The disciples who were blocked in the way suddenly thought of Ji Baihua. It seemed like the only one who could save them was Ji Baihua.

At this moment, they had completely forgotten that Ji Baihua had come here today to take their lives.

Seeing the pleading look in the disciple's eyes, Ji Baihua suddenly felt that... He was really pitiful. Then, she stretched out her hand and a silver sword instantly appeared in her hand and cut off the disciple's head. The head sprayed hot blood and rolled far away. Wherever she went, the disciples of the Ghost Shadow Sect turned their bodies sideways to give way.

"Save you? When you attacked the Blossoms Palace, did you ever think of showing mercy?"

Ji Baihua's indifferent voice echoed in the air, but it carried an endless coldness.

Someone was not convinced and stood up and shouted, "The ones attacking your Blossoms Palace are only one-third of the disciples of the Ghost Shadow Sect. But you have already killed half of our brothers today. Isn't that enough? Besides, many of us have spent our entire lives washing and cooking. Could it be that they are also in the wrong? "

" Yes. "

Ji Baihua looked into that man's eyes and said to him seriously, "From the moment you joined the Ghost Shadow Sect, from the moment your Ghost Shadow Sect attacked my Blossoms Palace. You were wrong. You made the wrong choice. Therefore, no matter what mistakes the Ghost Shadow Sect made, you were wrong. It was all your fault, no matter what kind of disaster the Ghost Shadow Sect suffered. It's all your fault. "

"Out of the five thousand disciples of the Blossoms Palace, more than half of them have died. There are still over a thousand disciples who have been locked up by you. These days, I believe that you have been torturing them a lot..." Ji Baihua's eyes turned cold and her voice sounded the same. "Then, what right do you have to say that you are innocent? Don't forget the purpose of my visit today. I am going to exterminate you all. "

As his voice faded, his head fell.

Everyone was silent. Thinking back to Ji Baihua's words just now, they could not help but ask themselves in their hearts, Am I... really innocent?

The final answer they got was - Not innocent.

They recalled when they first joined the Ghost Shadow Sect, they were sent to the entrance of the Charm Forest. They were there to kill the mercenaries who entered the forest and fought with the Demonic Beast, but they were exhausted, so they took the mercenaries' lives for their own.

Although these were the orders of the sect, they had treated it as a training experience. The feeling of obtaining something without any effort had made them addicted to it.

They recalled the time when the women of Blossoms Palace were captured. The Great Elder had asked them to interrogate those women. He vented his desire on them, the fragrance of the women, and their miserable screams. It made them incomparably excited.

Were they innocent?

Of course not!

But was he going to die because of this? Do I want to die?

Of course not!

However, Ji Baihua no longer gave them the chance to examine whether her heart was good or bad. She slowly walked towards Yem Lia. In the middle were thousands of Ghost Shadow Sect disciples.

No one was left alive within thirty meters!

With every step, the area within thirty meters would be covered by countless disciples.

Thus, as she gradually approached, countless disciples turned into ice sculptures, and their auras disappeared.

These disciples had yet to form a Nascent Infant Stage Golden Core and below, so naturally, there was no saying that a Nascent Infant Stage could escape.

"This is the cruelty of the Cultivation World. From the moment you stepped onto the path of cultivation, you should be prepared."

Ji Baihua said in a low voice and continued walking.
