The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple-Chapter 970 - 303: See, Timing Is Everything

This special realm had helped him escape from death several times.

Cao Zhengyang coughed dryly and said, "Nonsense, this is clearly my experience."

Then, his expression suddenly turned serious as he looked at the spiritual incense in his hand and extinguished it.

"Five hours, even if bitten once, a Divinity Transformation Realm Perfection can only last five hours at most!"

Cao Zhengyang turned toward the Golden Thunder Sect's direction, his tone murderous, "Before the situation escalates, we must eliminate the hidden threat posed by the Golden Thunder Sect!" 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Mo Xingjian nodded in agreement, "Indeed, the Corpse Yin Sect would never have imagined that the corpse nourishing land they accidentally left behind years ago would poison a Divinity Transformation powerhouse over time."

"This is what you call fate's irony. Back then, the strongest of the Corpse Yin Sect was probably just a Nascent Soul Realm," Gao Xuan remarked with emotion.

Cao Zhengyang sighed deeply and said, "Let's go, take a shortcut and catch up to see."

"Since the knife of the Liu Family has been unsheathed, it must see blood before it can be sheathed. As for us... we only need to ensure this blood splatters where it should."

The three exchanged a glance and saw an unspoken understanding in each other's eyes. Then their figures flashed, rushing toward another direction...

…

On the golden flying ship, the state of Fourth Elder Liu Hansong was extremely unusual, as the tail of the Dragon Lock Nail was now faintly turning black.

"This poison is truly something!" The First Elder Liu Xuanfeng exclaimed, bending down to inspect, his voice filled with shock.

Princess Consort Ying stepped forward delicately, eyes full of guilt. "Uncle, I'm sorry, it's all because of me that you got involved."

Liu Hansong shook his head bitterly and said, "There's nothing to be sorry about; it's because I was too careless. Anyway, I can't breakthrough to the Spirit Severing Realm in this life. It's just living three hundred years less at most."

He straightened his hunched back with difficulty, a decisive glint flashing in his cloudy eyes, "If I can eliminate some threats for the Liu Family before dying, that would be..."

His words suddenly paused as if he couldn't find the right phrase, ultimately just faintly uttering two words, "worth it."

Upon hearing this, everyone sighed softly, and the deck fell into a brief silence.

But just as Liu Hansong was about to say more, his whole body suddenly convulsed!

His turbid eyes opened abruptly, pupils shrinking to needle-like size.

He painfully clawed at his chest, appearing extremely uncomfortable.

"Over... there!"

He suddenly raised his hand to point toward a certain southeast location, his once normal nails now visibly turning cyan-black.

The others were taken aback by this.

Judging by the Royal Family's flying ship speed, there should be a day's journey to the Golden Thunder Sect, but seeing Old Fourth's reaction...

"Quick! Turn toward that direction!" Liu Xuanfeng swiftly decided, and the flying ship thunderously turned, heading straight over.

Meanwhile, Cao Zhengyang and others, who had just caught up by shortcutting, looked puzzled at the massive flying ship suddenly changing direction.

Could it be a change of mind?

After a brief hesitation, the three followed after it again...

…

At noon, with the scorching sun high, the blistering sunlight poured over a dead silent mountain range.

This was supposed to be the Qiling Sect's busiest morning cultivation time, but now it was shrouded by a bicolor array that covered the sky.

The outer layer displayed fierce golden lightning, and the inner layer was an eerie dark red blood mist, intertwining to form an impenetrable barrier.

Meanwhile, outside in the mountain forest, Lei Lie stood with hands behind his back, face solemn, the light of struggle flickering continuously in his eyes.

Beside him, five Supreme Elders stood like withered pines.

Each had a heavy expression, eyes fixed on the array's interior, yet none dared step inside.

"Usually, operations are at night, now changing to daytime..." A Supreme Elder grinned sinisterly, revealing jagged yellow teeth. "Who would have thought we'd dare to be so brazen?"

Another Supreme Elder stroked his beard and nodded, "Indeed, the Taiqing Sect is already investigating on their end, but as long as we don't touch those sects under their protection..."

He paused meaningfully, "I think they will turn a blind eye."

The others nodded in agreement.

Another calculated the time, "Forty thousand people in the Qiling Sect, based on the Sect Leader's current devouring speed..."

His cloudy eyes gleamed with cunning, "It'll be done in at most two hours."

"Stay alert." The leading First Elder suddenly shouted sternly, "After the Sect Leader's completion, be sure to clean up thoroughly. No living soul must escape!"

The Fourth Elder responded with a sinister laugh, "We've dealt with over ten sects in the past two years, never even a slip-up. Rest assured!"

Suddenly Lei Lie clenched his fists tightly, hesitantly saying, "Masters! By doing this... aren't we afraid of retribution?"

His voice trembling, "In the past two years, over a million people have been fed to the master and those over a hundred dried corpses. We used to look down on the Cangyan Daoist Palace, but now, what we are doing is—"

"Nonsense!" The First Elder shouted violently, his skinny palm flashing with lightning.

"Lei Lie! As the Sect Leader's first disciple, already reaching Divinity Transformation at such a young age, how can you be so faint-hearted!"

"Great achievements come from disregarding minor concerns!" The Third Elder rebuked fiercely, "If it helps the Sect Leader breakthrough Spirit Severing Realm, what's a million, even ten million lives?"

The Fifth Elder added wistfully, "Every day countless ants perish meaninglessly on this earth, rather than vanishing into dust, why not become our stepping stones?"

"The Heavenly Dao is merciless, survival of the fittest, a truth as old as the cosmos."

Lei Lie remained silent, saying nothing.

The First Elder noticed this, his tone suddenly softening, carrying persuasive undertones, "There are merely over ten Spirit Severing Realm people across the entire Holy Martial Dynasty, once the Sect Leader breaks through..."
