Chapter 312 Slaying Ling Hong! She dares not come to acknowledge her ancestors.
next moment.
A pure silver bead floated in the air in Ling Qingxue's hand.
Buzz!
The Soul-Breaking Silver Bead trembled and unleashed a powerful spiritual impact.
In an instant, before the eight puppets in the air could even get close, they convulsed as if they had malfunctioned and crashed to the ground.
Ling Hong, whose mind was connected to the puppet, turned pale and blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
He stared in disbelief at Ling Qingxue leaving ahead, and the silver bead magic weapon hovering above her head.
"How is this possible?!" Ling Hong was shocked and retreated rapidly.
How could such a treasure possibly exist in the lower realms?!
Moreover, the patriarch also told him that Ling Qingxue had no other immortal-level treasures besides that bronze immortal palace!
Even if the opponent uses the Immortal Palace defense, it will only be like catching a turtle in a jar.
Therefore, he was absolutely confident in killing Ling Qingxue this time!
'Could it be that the patriarch is lying to me?!' Ling Hong was shocked!
But this was his last thought.
Because the soul shockwave from the Soul-Breaking Silver Pearl was too fast, the moment he tried to retreat, the energy ripples swept across his entire body.
Rumble!!!
A thunderous roar echoed in his brain.
Ling Hong did have some resources; two soul-protecting magic treasures lit up in his sea of consciousness.
But it's utterly powerless against the whale's items!
boom!!!
The energy ripples from the Soul-Shattering Silver Pearl directly shattered Ling Hong's protective magic weapon.
"Ah!!!" With a shrill scream, the magical artifact that exploded in his sea of consciousness tore his primordial spirit apart on the spot.
His head was shattered to pieces by the aftershocks of the explosion!
puff.
The headless corpse crashed to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Watching the enemy who had betrayed her die, Ling Qingxue felt a sense of relief.
'This won't be the last! Hmph, they even lost a Celestial King to deal with me?! I will make the Ling family pay a heavy price!!'
Ling Qingxue looked around and smiled coldly: "A servant is a servant, not even realizing he's being used."
She didn't believe the head of the Ling family was unaware of what was going on behind the scenes.
Since Ling Tian, the young master of the Ling family, had visited the Xuan Tian Continent at that time, he must have been familiar with the general situation of Xuan Tian.
Although Ling Hong used eight puppets to kill her, which was quite well-prepared, it was only aimed at her and he had no backup plan to deal with the young master behind her.
It is clear that this old dog was used by Ling Tian and his son to kill someone else.
Even if she dies, Ling Hong might still be silenced.
This suggests that there must be powerful members of the Ling family lurking nearby.
Seeing that there was no movement around, Ling Qingxue waved her hand and collected the eight puppets and Ling Hong's corpse on the ground.
It's the corpse of a Golden Immortal, after all. She's penniless now, so this corpse is a valuable item and shouldn't be wasted.
'Since the Ling family's higher-ups sent Ling Hong to test me, he probably won't dare to show his face at this time...' Ling Qingxue pondered to herself.
After her divine consciousness ascended to the Immortal Realm, it was greatly suppressed.
It's far less powerful than Xuan Tian, who can cover an entire area with a single thought, so he doesn't know who else is around.
This is also due to the suppressive effect caused by the strong world barrier in this area.
With the Ling family choosing to retreat, there's no point in her staying here.
"Young Master, Qingxue plans to learn more about the Immortal Realm and the Ling Family before making any further decisions."
If the young master were to take action, he could probably slaughter the Ling family with a single breath!
This wasn't something she made up; it was something the young master told her.
She had previously thought the young master was from the immortal realm, but after inquiring that night, she learned that he was not a cultivator from the immortal realm, but rather a being of a higher level!
As for how tall the young master was, he didn't say, for fear of affecting her state of mind.
It is clear that there is still a long way to go in catching up with the young master.
This was also an important factor in her desire to come to the Immortal Realm.
She would avoid having the young master intervene if possible, because she wanted to take revenge herself and let the Ling family know how much they regretted abandoning her!
Only by making the other person regret it to the point of despair and heartbreak can you make her thoughts completely clear!
"It's alright, do whatever you want. I'll be keeping an eye on you for the time being, don't be afraid."
"Mmm!" Upon hearing this, Ling Qingxue smiled happily. The anxiety she felt upon arriving in the Immortal Realm due to her background vanished at that moment.
'It feels so wonderful to be silently protected by you, young master!'
Composing herself, Ling Qingxue activated the teleportation function of the Soul-Breaking Silver Pearl.
A beam of white light descended from the silver bead in the sky and landed on her. Then, in a flash of light, she disappeared from the spot.
After a while.
Three figures landed on the battlefield.
If Ling Qingxue were here, she would definitely recognize the youngest cultivator among the three at a glance as Ling Tian, who had descended upon Xuan Tian with the Infant Fiend Seed!
The middle-aged man beside him, who bore a striking resemblance to him, was Ling Feng, the head of the Ling family, who was out making excuses to contact influential figures and connections!
As for the old man, he was the ancestor of Ling Feng's lineage, and also Ling Qianli, who sacrificed his Immortal King cultivation to help Ling Qingxue ascend to immortality.
"Even I, an old man, cannot seal this bead?" Ling Qianli frowned as he looked at the Soul-Shattering Silver Bead in his hand, which had turned to dust.
"This so-called behind-the-scenes origin is indeed quite intriguing!"
Although he is no longer a Celestial King, he still possesses the cultivation and abilities of a Celestial Lord.
Even with his abilities, he couldn't seal this bead; he's truly remarkable!
The key point is that this bead, whose quality was still unknown, was able to instantly kill nine Golden Immortals, adding another layer of mystery to the so-called "behind-the-scenes figure".
Mystery and the unknown may very well represent danger!
Fortunately, according to the information Ling Tian obtained in the Xuan Tian Realm, although the mastermind's essence can be restored by binding with a cultivator, the amount is only a trace and can be completely ignored.
Some people from the lower realms even bluntly stated that if a cultivator went to the upper realm, the consumption of their vital essence would be terrifying, and they might not even have a chance to make a move.
Now that the opponent has made a move, their resources must be running low, so it seems we still gained something today.
"Great-grandfather, thank goodness we were cautious!" Ling Tian whispered.
"The reason why the Eternal Emperor Feng Qingkuang is unwilling to show himself must be because he is wary of Ling Qingxue's behind-the-scenes methods!"
That's why they sent Ling Hong to test Ling Qingxue.
In order to achieve the desired effect, they never revealed to Ling Hong that Ling Qingxue had information about a mastermind behind the scenes!
The magical artifacts that allowed Ling Qingxue to transmit messages to her second uncle's family, the immortal ascension artifacts, etc., were all just excuses they used to frame Ling Hong.
A tool that is destined to die should be used to the fullest extent possible!
really.
The methods employed by Ling Qingxue's mastermind were indeed remarkable, instantly eliminating Ling Hong.
"This is bad. She is shrouded in the aura of the Heavenly Dao, so we can't deduce her location at all." Ling Feng frowned and fiddled with his fingers to deduce, but he still couldn't find Ling Qingxue's whereabouts.
To be honest, this is very different from the result when they killed Ling Qingxue immediately after she ascended to the Immortal Realm.
"It's alright." Ling Qianli waved his hand, clearing away the traces of the battlefield, his tone indifferent:
"Judging from Ling Qingxue's character, she has a proud spirit. Since she hates the Ling family, she will definitely not come to the Ling family to acknowledge her ancestors."
"Besides, she's already stained with the blood of the Ling family members. If she comes, she'll be subjected to clan punishment first, and then we'll talk about other things. In terms of the severity of the punishment, it will be enough to make her soul fly away! As long as she knows a little about the Ling family, she won't dare to come here."
