Even more frenzied, pure killing intent erupted like a volcano that had been dormant for ten thousand years!
This time, Immortal Venerable Haoyue's target was no longer Su Jiu, but everything within her line of sight!
Rumble—!
The entire mine shaft violently shook under her frenzied will!
The pitch-black stone pillar that had imprisoned her for countless years let out an overwhelmed hum. The bizarre, ever-flowing patterns on its surface flashed wildly, and visible cracks frantically spread across it!
The hundreds of black shadows around them, which had previously retreated, let out waves of sharp hisses upon sensing her wrath.
Their blurry outlines twisted violently, as if they would swoop down to kill again at any moment!
Standing below, Su Ji's expression looked utterly terrible.
He could feel that the entire Third Mining Area had begun to riot!
The earth shook and the mountains swayed! Countless bottomless fissures frantically spread across the grayish-white ground, swallowing everything!
This Immortal Venerable's state was completely wrong!
She wasn't just simply angry; her sanity seemed to have been completely polluted and eroded by something!
Su Ji looked at the stone stairs that had completely crumbled into dust amidst the violent tremors, then looked at the bewildered Su Jiu at the top of the stone pillar, and gritted his teeth.
Rationally speaking, leaving at this time was the best choice.
No one was paying attention to him right now.
Even if the other two in the mine noticed the situation here, their attention would be drawn to Immortal Venerable Haoyue.
And Zhao Teng would care even less about a mine slave escaping amidst the chaos.
It could be said that slipping away right now was the easiest way to survive.
Hmm...
Su Ji thought about it. His Dao Heart oath stated that they must advance and retreat together.
How could he abandon the other party and ignore her?
His legs suddenly exerted force!
Boom!
The ground beneath his feet instantly exploded into a deep pit, and he shot toward the tall stone pillar like a cannonball fired from its chamber!
Without the stone stairs, he treated this nearly vertical stone pillar as a flat road!
Su Ji's feet were wrapped in spiritual energy. Every time he stepped on the stone pillar, a cobweb-like crack would burst open, leaving a shallow footprint.
He simply went against the current in such an unreasonable posture, braving that suffocating pressure to climb upward!
Roar—!
At the top of the stone pillar, the completely maddened Immortal Venerable Jiuyue seemed to have also noticed this tiny ant attempting to provoke her majesty.
Su Ji only felt his body suddenly sink, and his climbing speed stagnated!
Immediately after, the hundreds of ghost-like black shadows around him also let out sharp hisses, turning into streaks of black light that frantically bit toward Su Ji from all directions!
Su Ji did not retreat in the slightest!
Get lost!
Su Ji shouted explosively. He actually forcefully twisted his body during the climb to dodge this siege.
But more black shadows had already pounced over fearlessly!
Su Ji completely ignored these small fries, only able to blindly dodge!
Braving the terrifying pressure that felt like a mountain pressing down, and braving the sky full of dancing black shadows, he continued upward with a resolute posture!
The distance was rapidly closing!
Su Jiu sat slumped at the top of the stone pillar, staring blankly at the figure that was still rapidly approaching under the siege of the sky full of black shadows.
Senior Brother...
Immortal Venerable Jiuyue seemed to be thoroughly enraged by Su Ji's ant-shaking-a-tree-like behavior!
She let out an even more frenzied roar, and her right hand, bound by chains, fiercely pressed down toward Su Ji's direction again!
Rumble—!
This time, the entire pitch-black stone pillar trembled violently!
Su Ji only felt nothingness beneath his feet; the rock he had just stepped on disintegrated inch by inch without warning, turning into dust!
His body instantly lost its foothold and plummeted straight down!
Senior Brother!
Su Jiu let out a miserable scream.
However, just at the moment she thought everything was about to end.
A streak of crimson light shot out from below without warning, arriving first despite launching later, and viciously nailed into the stone pillar above Su Ji's head!
It was the Fallen Dragon Spear!
At the moment of his fall, Su Ji reached out his right hand and grabbed the tail of the Fallen Dragon Spear with absolute precision. Like an agile monkey, he swung in a huge arc in mid-air and landed steadily on the stone pillar once again!
Without a moment's rest, taking advantage of this swinging momentum, his climbing speed was actually a bit faster than before!
Roar!
Immortal Venerable Jiuyue was completely enraged!
The pitch-black patterns on her body erupted with a demonic light, and surges of black energy frantically poured into her body along those ferocious chains!
Her aura climbed steadily at this moment!
Clatter—
The chains binding her were actually forcefully snapped one by one under this frenzied power!
For every chain snapped, her power would surge by a fraction!
The moment the last chain was forcefully ripped out from her pierced collarbone, bringing with it a large chunk of flesh and blood!
Boom—!
An indescribably terrifying shockwave explosively erupted with her at the center!
Under the wash of this shockwave, the entire mine shaft let out waves of overwhelmed wails!
This massive deep pit that imprisoned countless mine slaves was swept by this shockwave!
Nearly half of the mine slaves were completely crushed into dust before they could even let out a scream!
And Su Ji, who bore the brunt of it, felt as if he had been viciously struck in the chest by an oncoming star!
Pfft—!
Unable to suppress his internal injuries any longer, he spewed out a mouthful of fresh blood, dyeing the stone pillar beneath him red.
His climbing figure could no longer be maintained under this impact, and like a kite with a broken string, he plummeted downward once again.
Immortal Venerable Haoyue had broken free from her bindings!
She simply floated quietly in mid-air. Her long purple hair moved without any wind, and her eyes, swallowed by an inky blackness, indifferently looked down at the falling ant below.
She raised her hand, fingers together, forming a pitch-black palm blade, and made a phantom slash toward Su Ji's direction!
A pitch-black blade light capable of tearing apart heaven and earth quietly emerged. Carrying an intent of annihilation that spelled the end of all things, it slashed down right at Su Ji's head!
It's over.
Only these two words remained in Su Ji's mind.
He could feel that the aura of death had completely enveloped him.
He wanted to dodge, but his body was rendered immobile under the lock of this terrifying blade intent.
He wanted to resist, but the spiritual energy in his body had long been depleted during his forceful climb just now.
Could it be that he really had to use that move?
A flash of resolve passed through Su Ji's eyes.
Senior!
You wouldn't want Senior Feng to know that you've turned into this state now, would you?

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
