Chapter 157: Chapter 151: Nascent Soul Annihilation

Boom!

At this moment, everyone was shocked.

The Nascent Soul cultivator Ancient Ink struck with a palm, a move that should have been an instant kill for a Core Formation cultivator.

But now a huge explosion occurred, rocking the entire Celestial Yang City, the super Rank Three array originally constructed with the Celestial Slayer Stone turned into a super Rank Three “bomb” instead.

“No…”

“I don’t want to die!”

“Run!”

In a flash, under the terrifying shockwave, the city’s buildings collapsed in large swathes, and cultivators closer to the blast point were blasted to death amidst miserable screams, many without even their bodies remaining.

“What?!”

Above the Prince Mansion, Ancient Ink’s old face changed drastically as he looked incredulously at the city.

This grand array was one of the crucial barriers to ensure King Jingbei could successfully break through to the Nascent Soul stage, and their Blood Essence Sect had painstakingly refined it for a long time.

But now it was directly broken.

It seems… White Tiger Mountain had long been plotting.

The shockwaves from all directions were also heading towards the Prince Mansion; the power of the super Rank Three array’s explosion was too strong, affecting even the clouds and Spiritual Qi in the sky to some extent.

Ancient Ink swiftly took action, suppressing the surroundings with his Nascent Soul cultivation, forcibly holding down the impact, and said in a deep voice, “Focus on the breakthrough, most of your body has already crossed that threshold, you’re just one small step away—”

This was said to King Jingbei.

Then, Ancient Ink glanced up, staring at the approaching White Tiger Master in the sky.

White Tiger Master, dressed in a long dress, walked in the air, with light radiating all around, like a Divine Maiden from the sky, making people look up in awe.

“How dare you, coming here with just your presence?”

Ancient Ink released his Divine Sense, in an instant scanning an area covering hundreds of miles.

Besides White Tiger Master, there was also a True Core powerhouse, along with a bunch of Fake Pill and Foundation Establishment cultivators charging into the city, but the masters in the Prince Mansion had already met them.

No cause for concern.

Even if White Tiger Mountain, with their Golden Core as the overseer, emptied their base, they still couldn’t shake a Nascent Soul!

“Dare to fight?”

White Tiger Master calmly, with the stance of a Golden Core, faced the Nascent Soul without fear.

“Still just a Golden Core, yet you dare to provoke a Nascent Soul? Haha, little girl, today I will let you see what is called an insurmountable gap!”

Ancient Ink flicked his finger directly!

Where the finger pointed, a water line several kilometers long gushed out, where it reached, the moisture in the sky instantly turned into Cold Ice and fell down, though it was the blazing summer season in Celestial Yang City, snow fluttered down and frost appeared!

This is the terror of a Nascent Soul, one person can slaughter a city, where their Divine Power reaches, a territory can be altered.

White Tiger Master raised her hand, and a terrifying spiritual light surged out, transforming into a giant White Tiger in the sky, roaring toward Ancient Ink.

But at the instant of contact between the ice line and the White Tiger, the White Tiger formed from Spiritual Power exploded directly.

The ice line arrived instantly in front of White Tiger Master.

The Golden Core, known as Nascent Soul reserve, yet ultimately… not a Nascent Soul.

Before crossing that threshold, their strengths were still worlds apart.

At the critical moment, White Tiger Master suddenly summoned a small black flag, slashing forward—

The small flag suddenly enlarged, turning into a gigantic banner that blocked out the sky and sun, its Evil Qi terrifyingly extreme, directly blocking the ice line.

Moreover, the black aura instantly evolved into thousands of ghost soldiers, roaring and charging toward King Jingbei’s mansion.

“Top-notch Rank Four treasure—”

Seeing this, Ancient Ink’s eyes immediately burned with heat; White Tiger Master actually had such a supreme treasure in hand?

He was only at the early stage of Nascent Soul; if he could get this Rank Four treasure, he would fear no Mid-Stage Nascent Soul in the future.

Ancient Ink quickly turned back to check on King Jingbei’s state.

At this moment, King Jingbei had fully entered the Nascent Soul.

It was just nurturing and consolidating.

It’s done!

“This treasure… I want it!”

Ancient Ink let out a vicious laugh and then rushed straight toward White Tiger Master.

He wanted to seize the treasure!

White Tiger Master couldn’t unleash the full power of this top-notch treasure, so his odds of victory were still very high.

If White Tiger Master could escape, it would already be impressive.

He was determined to win this item.

White Tiger Master attacked with full force, but still couldn’t breathe under Ancient Ink’s attack; the sky over hundreds of miles was almost sealed in ice, her face changed, and she retreated with the flag.

Ancient Ink chased directly after—

At the same time.

At King Jingbei’s mansion.

In a palace covered by a Rank Three array.

A middle-aged man in a bright yellow robe slowly opened his eyes.

His eyes were filled with joy.

“The Three Yang and One Yin Skill indeed allowed me to step into the Nascent Soul sequence…”

“The Great Li Dynasty… is mine!”

He was full of ambition!

As the Border King, his position in the royal family wasn’t very central.

But after becoming a Nascent Soul, he would be the first among his peers, who could stop him?

“The Nascent Soul is achieved…”

He stood up.

But, just at this moment of standing up.

“Something’s wrong!”

He suddenly felt something amiss; from his neck, black lines rapidly spread upwards.

“Gah… gah…”

The dignified Nascent Soul cultivator King Jingbei, at this moment, was actually like being grabbed by an evil ghost’s hand at the neck, unable to resist, his eyes bulged, he fell straight to the ground, convulsing, mouth foaming.

“No…”

In the final moment, Prince Zhenbei aroused the will to survive, his Dantian suddenly cracked, and a white light was about to fly out.

In that white light was a baby as fair and tender as an infant, bearing a striking resemblance to Prince Zhenbei.

That was the Nascent Soul he had cultivated.

As long as the Nascent Soul escaped, he wouldn’t die.

But inside his body, unexpectedly, a black mysterious Demonic Qi turned into a black hand, grasping his Nascent Soul, preventing it from flying out.

“Someone, save me—”

His Nascent Soul cried out toward outside the hall.

Hearing his cry for help, someone outside the hall quickly activated the array and entered.

“Father King, what happened to you—”

The Third Princess.

“Where are your eldest and second brothers… quickly help me get rid of this black aura!”

The Nascent Soul of King Jingbei cried out.

The Third Princess was extremely anxious and quickly rushed forward, saying, “Father, let me help you…”

She ran over, raised her hand, and suddenly another wave of Demonic Qi struck out. King Jingbei’s Nascent Soul let out a miserable cry and was forcibly pressed back into his body.

At the same time, the Third Princess’s clothes suddenly disappeared. She grasped King Jingbei’s throat and bit down fiercely.

King Jingbei trembled and struggled…

Finally, both returned to calmness.

After a long while.

King Jingbei suddenly pushed the Third Princess off him and sat up. However, his demeanor had lost the imposing manner of a king, and his gestures seemed to carry a hint of femininity.

“It worked… King Jingbei, I have you to thank for allowing me to find a body I can use.”

King Jingbei chuckled lowly and moved around a bit.

As for the Third Princess, she seemed to have turned into a corpse!

“Congratulations, King Jingbei, you finally succeeded.”

Outside the hall, another voice suddenly sounded.

A sickly young girl walked in.

She wore a plain green dress and held an umbrella, appearing so striking in the dark night.

“You…”

Seeing the sickly girl, King Jingbei’s expression changed drastically, and he turned to flee!

The umbrella in the girl’s hand suddenly enlarged, enveloping the entire space, making it impossible for King Jingbei to escape the hall!

“Sister, your time has come.”

The sickly girl spoke calmly.

King Jingbei turned around, his face extremely grim, “How did you find me?”

His voice was female!

“Back when you escaped from the Spirit Realm, though you laid many smokescreens, I still guessed you’d come here, because this realm has what you want…”

The sickly girl said, “Unfortunately, I told those people about you, yet they still didn’t manage to kill you.”

“So I decided to come myself.”

A flash of anger seemed to pass across King Jingbei’s face, “So it was you…”

“For the position of the Demon Sect, you resorted to such foul means against me… My dear sister, I truly underestimated you!”

“But do you really dare to come after me like this, don’t you think it’s too reckless? My Demon Soul is far superior to yours, life or death, it’s not yet certain—”

Suddenly, a silver light burst forth from King Jingbei’s Spirit Platform.

This silver light was incredibly brilliant, like the moon in the night sky, carrying overwhelming Demonic Qi, ready to engulf the sickly girl.

But the sickly girl softly murmured, “Father gave you that Demon Soul back then, so your Demon Soul is indeed strong… But don’t forget, Father gave me the Primordial Spirit Cauldron Skill.”

A similarly resplendent azure light exploded from her Spirit Platform.

This was a battle of Divine Souls.

Amid the azure light, the girl’s Primordial Spirit raised her hand and struck out. Her sister screamed suddenly, “No, you poisoned King Jingbei’s Nascent Soul?!”

A wretched cry echoed in the silver light, retreating hastily, trying to return to King Jingbei’s body.

But the sickly girl’s Primordial Spirit also charged directly into King Jingbei’s Spirit Platform.

King Jingbei’s Spirit Platform became a battlefield.

A battle quickly unfolded.

“Have those who pursued you left you so weak after all these years…”

In King Jingbei’s Spirit Platform, the sickly girl coldly extinguished the last trace of her sister’s soul light. As she watched the soul light dissipate, a ripple, a hint of sadness seemed to flash in her eyes…

“Sweet sister, even if those chases left me weakened, you barely survived the catastrophe of the annihilated sect, why are you still so naive?”

But at this moment, the sickly girl’s body left outside suddenly moved on its own, showing an unusual smile.

The sickly girl’s Primordial Spirit trembled violently, looking up to see that next to her body stood a man.

Life-taking Horse-Faced.

Life-taking Horse-Faced knelt behind the sickly girl, trembling all over as if he had been through a great ordeal.

And the sickly girl’s body had already been taken over…

“You… diverted me from the main target?!”

The sickly girl exclaimed.

At the same time, the body of King Jingbei ignited in black fire.

Wherever the black fire reached, even the Spirit Platform was quickly engulfed, this fire could wound the soul—

“Xiao Xiao, you’re still too naive… Father was right not to let you lead the Demon Sect, you’re too foolish.”

“Who told you, that you’re the only one who knows the Primordial Spirit Cauldron Skill?”

The sickly girl’s body, now possessed, slightly curled her lips, “We both come from the same source, your body actually suits me quite well, not bad… thank you for it.”

“Enjoy the Soul-Devouring Demon Flame.”

Saying this, she quickly turned and left.

The magical umbrella, no longer under the control of the sickly girl, was also taken away by her.

“No…”

Xiao Xiao’s Primordial Spirit stared at her retreating back, letting out a devastating cry…

…

“Truly too foolish.”

Leaving the Prince Mansion, the “sickly girl” shook her head and looked off into a certain direction in the city, “Well, the Innate Demon Body Chongdan has also succeeded, truly… double happiness.”

She laughed, then took a step forward, and her figure vanished.

Just after she left.

A maid suddenly emerged from behind.

The maid’s expression was somewhat pale, as if she were in ill health.

She glanced back at the great hall, now completely burned down and collapsed.

“You really… deceived me again.”

The maid suddenly spoke in a sickly girl’s whisper.

The sickly girl… had left behind a Primordial Spirit outside!

Primordial Spirit Cauldron Skill!

But, her main Primordial Spirit had already been extinguished, and at this moment, even if she hadn’t died, her power was far less than her main body.

“No… you have other schemes!”

The maid whispered, then suddenly quickly followed in the direction her sister had disappeared—

…

Meanwhile.

Perhaps the most tranquil place in the city was the Zuo Mansion.

In the quiet room.

“Did you memorize it all?”

Li An looked at Gu Hong and confirmed once more.
