Longevity starts from having a daughter in old age

Chapter 344: Chapter 313: Complete Annihilation_1

“You demon! How audacious are you! Don’t you realize what you’ve been doing?!”

The cultivators from the Beihan Immortal Palace who had rushed over, looked at the blood stains on the ground, the flying ashes in the sky, and the lingering scent in the air; without guessing, they knew what had transpired.

A group of Golden Core Stage cultivators encircled Xu Mu, their gazes filled with anger.

Daring to kill members of the Beihan Immortal Palace consecutively on Beihan Immortal Palace’s land, he’s clearly brimming with audacious courage.

Despite being surrounded by a group of Golden Core Stage cultivators, Xu Mu seemed calm and collected, showing neither haste nor panic.

“In this world, it’s either you kill me or I kill you. If anyone dares to harm my people, they must be prepared to die,” said Xu Mu indifferently.

“You dare to cause trouble on our Beihan Immortal Palace’s land! Your death is well deserved! You dare to kill our people, your crime is unforgivable!” The leading Golden Core Stage cultivator exclaimed coldly.

The others remained expressionless, staring at Xu Mu without seeing any problem with the leader’s words.

In this world, the law of the jungle prevails; when on the Beihan Immortal Palace’s territory, one must abide their rules.

Due to this delay, many cultivators who had been chasing to watch the excitement had already rushed over, observing from afar.

When someone passed along the words of the Golden Core Stage leader, the crowd only felt a trace of regret for Xu Mu, not questioning the leader’s statements, nor stepping out to support him.

“Unforgivable crime? Haha!”

Xu Mu, as if he’d heard something hilarious, laughed heartily, “Indeed, it’s an unforgivable crime, but not for me, it’s for you all!”

Xu Mu calmly looked at the crowd and said in a plain tone, “Clear the way immediately, or I won’t mind killing a few more.”

“Kill a few more?”

The leading cultivator seemed to have heard a huge joke, a face full of mockery and ridicule.

There were nearly ten Golden Core Stage people on the field, and he himself was in the late Golden Core Stage, being one step away from reaching Perfection. Even if Xu Mu was at the stage of Golden Core Perfection, with him leading the pack and with cooperation from several Golden Core Stage cultivators, it would be good enough for Xu Mu to even harm them. Any hope of having some of them as scapegoats was just a delusion.

“I advise you to surrender. Although escaping death would be impossible, at least you could suffer less before death!” the leading cultivator said contemptuously.

The Beihan Immortal Palace had countless methods to make a cultivator’s life worse than death.

“Since you are seeking death, I won’t hold back.”

Xu Mu did not want to waste more time talking with them. The Phoenix wings behind him spread, and his body disappeared from the spot instantly.

“Set up the formation! Don’t let him escape!”

The leading cultivator’s expression tightened as he cautiously observed his surroundings. In his estimation, Xu Mu would definitely choose the weakest spot to break out and escape, as that was his only way to survive.

What he never expected was that in the blink of an eye, Xu Mu was actually right in front of him.

“How is that possible? Has he gone mad? Does he intend to break through from my position?”

The leading cultivator’s mind went blank, as this was beyond his understanding.

Anyone intending to break through would definitely choose the weakest spot, so why should someone charge towards the strongest point?

Did he intend to act in the exact opposite way, catching him off guard?

What a joke!

A cruel smirk surfaced on the leading Golden Core Stage cultivator’s face. He wasn’t a naive newcomer who cultivated within the sect every day. He had experienced countless battles and was an experienced cultivator who had been through trials of fire and blood. If not limited by his innate gifts, he would not have been posted here.

Thinking of breaking through him with this trick was nothing less than a pipe dream.

In the blink of an eye, the leading cultivator responded swiftly, summoning a Glacial Flying Sword, thinking to meet force with force and force Xu Mu to retreat.

If Xu Mu dared to continue forward, it would result in mutual destruction.

But he was confident that he had more protective measures than Xu Mu and would incur lesser damage.

No matter whether Xu Mu attacked or retreated, either option would be advantageous for him. He was in an invincible position!

Hmph!

Trying to compete with me, you are still too green!

The leading cultivator was smug.

However, before he could let out his expression, Xu Mu had directly crashed into his Flying Sword. Xu Mu was not counterattacking; instead, he was willing to exchange injuries.

He is courting death! He thinks he can break my Flying Sword…Impossible!!!

The leading cultivator was terrified as he saw Xu Mu emanating a purple flame, directly knocking his millennia-old Glacial Flying Sword away. The divine consciousness left on the sword was on the brink of being scattered.

How can this be? How can this be?

That’s a tier-nine flying sword, how could it be knocked away by physical force?!!

A horrifying thought crossed the mind of the leading Golden Core Stage cultivator.

Could this fellow be a human-shaped magical artifact?

But before he could make sense of it, it was already too late. Xu Mu was in front of him, wielding a bronze halberd, striking straight towards his head.

Luckily, I’m alert and have many defensive techniques. Surely, I can withstand this!

The leading cultivator took solace in his own thoughts.

He refused to believe that the opponent who is so defensively strong could have an equal or stronger attack!

But some things tend to manifest the most when you least want to believe in them.

Layers of defensive light rose around him, but they seemed as fragile as a bubble in front of the bronze halberd.

Pfft!

The halberd effortlessly cut through him. His body, which he believed to be strong, was as soft as tofu.

What sort of artifact is that?

Who exactly is he?

Just as this thought arose, the leading Golden Core Stage cultivator’s consciousness was completely plunged into darkness.

“What an idiot, he didn’t attempt to dodge or avoid, but chose to attack me!” Casually commented Xu Mu.

His own attack was comparable to a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, and coupled with the Sky-splitting Halberd, even a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator would not dare to take him head-on, let alone a Golden Core Stage cultivator, it’s basically suicide.

If he had focused solely on defense, perhaps he could have stayed alive for one or two more breaths.

Of course, the outcome would still be death!

The battle between the two seemed like an elaborate tale, but in reality, it was over in one or two breaths. By the time everyone else could react, the leading Golden Core Stage cultivator had been sliced in half.

His soul didn’t escape; his Golden Pill shattered instantaneously. He seemed dead beyond doubt.

Killing a late Golden Core Stage cultivator with a single strike, while he was completely prepared, how is that possible?

Everyone present was stunned, hardly believing their eyes.

“Attack together!”

Someone shouted. The nerves of the few Golden Core Stage cultivators already stretched to their limits, was released as they simultaneously launched an attack on Xu Mu.

“Purple Flame Heavenly Thunder!”

Xu Mu pushed his body refining technique to the max. His body was completely covered in purple flame and purple thunder, fending off the coordinated attack. Then, the lightning burst, sweeping in all directions like a thunderstorm descending from the heavens.

Boom!

The deafening explosion scattered the blinding light, leaving only one or two Golden Core Stage cultivators standing, their bodies covered in wounds.

“…”

The surrounding cultivators were taken aback, before they frantically fled for their lives.

He annihilated a group of Golden Core Stage cultivators with a single attack. This isn’t something a Golden Core Stage cultivator can do, he is clearly a Nascent Soul Stage divine lord!

It’s fine to spectate a Golden Core Stage battle, but they didn’t have the courage to spectate a Nascent Soul Stage battle. If they were caught in the clash, they would die without anyone daring to avenge them.

Where did this Nascent Soul Stage cultivator come from?

The Cold Immortal Palace truly has bad luck to have provoked a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator.

Apart from Divinity Transformation, Nascent Soul Stage was essentially the pinnacle of the cultivation world. Even if the Beihan Immortal Palace had a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, they wouldn’t dare to offend a stranger of Nascent Soul Stage lightly.

Never mind whether the other party had the ability to annihilate them, just a battle between Nascent Soul Stage cultivators would already be dreadful if their power levels were not vastly different. Even if they didn’t win, it would be challenging to make the opponent stay.

If the other party was a lone wolf, hiding in the darkness to ambush disciples, no sect could withstand such strikes. This is why battles between Nascent Soul Stage cultivators were rare.

Martial arts disciples below fought bloody battles while the ancestors of the Nascent Soul Stage remained as stable as Mount Tai.

Xu Mu wasn’t bothered about the fleeing cultivators. After finishing off the remaining two cultivators, he quickly cleaned up the battlefield and left in haste.

Instead of returning to the base, he headed straight for the Misty Sea.
