Chapter 14748 Those Who Covet the Realm of Annihilation
Ling Xiao could secretly follow her, both to find Xiao Lianzhu's whereabouts and to take the opportunity to get rid of these troubles.
Only after the two figures completely disappeared into the chaotic mist did Ling Xiao slowly release some of the Saint Rune concealment.
With a flash, he moved like a ghost, heading in the opposite direction from the two of them. He remembered Xia Ming saying that the altar to break the seal was nearby.
Before long, a huge black altar appeared before Ling Xiao's eyes.
The altar floated in the chaotic space, its entire body pitch black, covered with obscure and incomprehensible runes, and exuding a dense aura of death and poisonous miasma.
Around the altar, twelve powerful figures dressed in black robes sat cross-legged, their hands rapidly forming hand seals. Streams of pitch-black runes were continuously injected into the center of the altar, their expressions solemn yet ferocious.
In the center of the altar, the enormous corpse of a venomous insect was slowly corroding, with black venom dripping continuously.
It landed on the sealing light barrier below, making a hissing sound. The sealing light barrier was gradually thinning and darkening, and it was obviously about to collapse.
Dead poisonous insects!
It is an ancient poisonous insect, whose venom is extremely corrosive and can easily corrode the seal of the Silent Realm!
Ling Xiao remained hidden in the shadows, his gaze sweeping over the twelve black-robed experts. He was secretly on guard, for these twelve individuals all possessed extremely powerful auras and their strength should not be underestimated.
"Sneak attack! Kill them all, leave no one alive!"
Xia Ming's voice rang in my mind, his tone tinged with urgency.
"That poisonous insect corpse is a valuable item, containing a rich concentration of ancient poison and energy. Taking it back to refine will greatly benefit us, whether for improving our cultivation, crafting poison pills, or tempering our bodies. We must bring it back!"
Ling Xiao nodded slightly, a resolute glint in his eyes. These people were breaking the seal, and if they were not killed quickly, the Silent Realm would face annihilation. Moreover, the corpses of these poisonous insects were indeed rare treasures that could not be missed.
The next moment, he moved!
The Bloodthirsty Blade was drawn in response, and a scarlet blade light suddenly shone brightly. The nameless holy rune within his body instantly merged into the blade. He dared not fully activate the holy rune, for fear of causing energy fluctuations and alarming other powerful beings from beyond the realm. He only used 30% of its power.
Even so, the Bloodthirsty Blade, enhanced with 30% of the power of the Holy Runes, was already terrifyingly powerful!
A flash of blood appeared, moving at an extreme speed, as if teleporting, instantly appearing around the altar!
The twelve black-robed experts were all startled, and an extreme sense of crisis surged in their hearts. They wanted to get up and fight back, and wanted to activate their runes for defense, but their speed was no match for Ling Xiao's sword speed!
Before they could react, the crimson light, like the scythe of death, slashed across the throats of the six men, drawing out six jets of scalding blood!
"Enemy attack!"
The remaining six black-robed experts roared in unison, their divine power surging as they unleashed a barrage of killing moves!
However, Ling Xiao's figure was like a ghost. With the blessing of the holy runes, his speed had already broken through the limit, and the naked eye could only catch a blurry black shadow.
The second strike, and blood flashed again!
Four more people collapsed on the spot, without even having time to scream.
Finally, the two men's pupils shrank drastically, filled with horror, and they burned their life essence to fight back desperately!
Ling Xiao withstood two fatal blows head-on, his chest ached terribly, he groaned, and blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, but his sword momentum did not diminish in the slightest.
Whoosh!
A flash of light streaked across the sky.
Two heads flew high into the air, their hot blood spraying onto the altar.
From the start of the surprise attack to the complete annihilation, it took only three breaths.
Ling Xiao sheathed his sword, grabbed the massive corpse of the poisonous insect with his large hand, and activated the Nameless Sacred Rune to its fullest extent. His figure instantly vanished into the void without a trace.
A moment later, an old figure suddenly descended upon the altar.
The old man held an ancient mirror, in which a receding black shadow was reflected. His brows were furrowed, and his voice was icy: "That brat has already left the outer boundary... Issue the order to strengthen security and seal off all passages!"
……
In a dim, chaotic corner.
Ling Xiao sat cross-legged, his face slightly pale.
He had just taken the brunt of the counterattack from those two powerful individuals, and he was somewhat shaken, but fortunately, his injuries were not serious and did not affect his mobility.
He looked at the enormous corpse of the poisonous insect in front of him, raising an eyebrow slightly.
"This corpse contains a massive amount of blood energy, malevolent energy, and deadly poison," Jian Sha's voice rang out. "Refining it can drastically increase one's bloodline, but the risks are extremely high. If one is not careful, one's mind will be devoured by the malevolent energy and one's body will rot away with the deadly poison."
Ling Xiao hesitated for a moment: "Can it be used as a trump card?"
“Sure,” Xia Ming replied. “It can be used to fight for your life in critical moments. But it’s best not to use it lightly in normal times.”
Ling Xiao nodded, flicked his finger, and put the poisonous insect corpse into the magic needle space.
"How long can the seal last?" he asked in a deep voice.
"At most three months." Xia Ming's voice was low. "After three months, the seal will break, and powerful beings from outside the realm will invade in large numbers. At that time, the Silent Realm will become their prize, and they will plunder, enslave, and slaughter without holding back."
Ling Xiao remained silent.
“The outer realms are far larger than you imagine,” Jian Sha continued. “Where you are now is merely the outermost, desolate area. The true core of the outer realms is teeming with powerful individuals and numerous factions. With your current strength, rashly seeking out Xiao Lianzhu would be tantamount to courting death.”
Ling Xiao slowly raised his head, a cold glint flashing in his eyes: "Then I won't look for you."
Sword Demon was taken aback.
"Kill them." Ling Xiao's tone was calm, but it carried a chilling coldness. "Kill them until they dare not even think about attacking the Realm of Annihilation, kill them until they voluntarily hand over Xiao Lianzhu's whereabouts."
Sword Demon was silent for a moment, then suddenly laughed: "Good lad, you've got guts!"
Just then, Ling Xiao's expression shifted slightly: "Someone's coming."
Without further hesitation, the holy runes spread out once more, and his figure vanished instantly, leaving no trace of his presence.
In the distance, four figures broke through the air and arrived.
"Is the seal on this Realm of Annihilation really about to break?"
The burly man at the head carried two hammers on his back, his voice booming like a bell, his aura ferocious.
The thin man beside him sneered, "Duan Ting, didn't you see the wanted poster from the Silent Extinction Court? Ling Xiao killed several Silent Extinction Court experts, which shows that the Silent Extinction Realm isn't all trash."
“Fu Hai, you’re wrong about that.” The third person was a charming woman with captivating eyes and a seductive voice. “The fact that he can kill people from the Silent Extinction Court shows that Ling Xiao is indeed quite capable. We can’t underestimate him when we go down.”
The last person was a silent young man, expressionless, who didn't utter a single word from beginning to end.
Duan Ting snorted heavily: "Miao Lan is right. Those old foxes in the Holy Temple issued the arrest warrant, clearly intending to use someone else to do their dirty work. If we were to foolishly rush in and offer our heads to Ling Xiao, that would be truly stupid."
Fu Hai sneered, "So you mean you're not going down?"
"Go down, of course we'll go down." A greedy glint flashed in Duan Ting's eyes. "Once the seal is broken, the Silent Realm will be a piece of juicy meat. If we don't go down and make a fortune, how can we justify ourselves? I've heard that Ling Xiao's Overlord Empire has so many treasures that they could be piled up like mountains."
Miao Lan laughed: "Then let's go straight for the heart of the matter and wipe out his lair!"
