“Junior brother, since they have already told the truth, why not spare their lives?”
The gray-robed man looked at the few lumps of minced meat and sighed.
At their current height, if they were to fall unconsciously, even a martial artist at the Innate Realm would be no different from an ordinary person.
There was no other outcome but to fall to one's death.
"The souls of these ants are too weak. After their souls were searched, their souls collapsed, and they all became idiots. Living is a kind of suffering for them."
I was just trying to help them out of a difficult situation.
The young man in the white robe smiled faintly, his tone completely unwavering.
To him, it was just a matter of crushing a few ants; it was nothing at all.
"..."
The man in the gray robe was silent for a moment, but ultimately said nothing more.
He also knew that his junior brother's personality had always been somewhat fierce.
Those who can cultivate to their level have such firm minds that they would not change so easily.
Moreover, his junior brother had previously suffered a setback. If it weren't for the need to consider the laws of this place and avoid committing too many sins, his methods would probably have been even more brutal.
"Senior brother, you are still so soft-hearted. They are just some native ants. Why bother with them?"
"But you heard what those ants said earlier, didn't you, Senior Brother?"
The white-robed youth's expression turned excited: "This small world is actually full of secret realms, and some of them have even been revived and opened!"
"I thought it was just a barren and inconspicuous little world, but I never expected it to be such a precious little world with a unique structure and abundant secret realms."
A hint of excitement also appeared in the gray-robed man's eyes.
Whether it's the Great World or the Small World, the Secret Realm is always very special.
Its unique spatial characteristics often give rise to rare and unusual objects.
In that case, the value of this small world is much higher than he estimated.
"Senior brother, should we go find those four secret lands first, or go to the newly revived secret realm?" the white-robed youth asked.
The gray-robed man pondered for a moment: "Judging from what that person just said, those four secret realms have a long history. They are obviously some forces that survived by hiding in secret realms during a cultivation era in this small world."
Such a secret realm, having been cultivated for tens of thousands of years, is probably as solid as a rock and not so easily broken.
We have just arrived and are not yet fully adapted to the rules of this world.
"It won't be too late to search for those secret realms after we've fully familiarized ourselves with the rules of this world."
"Very well." The white-robed youth nodded. "A secret realm that can be maintained for tens of thousands of years must be guarded by magical treasures of spiritual quality or higher. It seems that we are really going to have a great harvest this time, Senior Brother."
The young man in the white robe had a burning gaze.
The preciousness of magical artifacts goes without saying.
Even in the greater world, it can be considered a top-tier treasure.
Despite being at the Golden Core stage, he possessed no spiritual artifacts; his best magic weapon was merely a top-grade treasure.
If he could obtain one or two magical artifacts in this small world, his gains would be immense.
It can be said that their strength has truly increased significantly!
The two brothers chatted and laughed, but their figures transformed into two streaks of light and flew away.
From beginning to end, he didn't glance at the devastation of the holy city below once more.
It wasn't until long after the two figures had completely disappeared, and the once desolate holy city was now eerily quiet, that people gradually dared to venture out.
Soon after, the sound of crying was heard.
...
Lu Qing was naturally unaware of what had happened in Zhongzhou.
He continued to cultivate leisurely every day, feeling the continuous growth of his cultivation level, which was very pleasant.
Several days later, Lin Zhirui arrived at the hillside courtyard with a serious expression.
"Young Master Lu, something terrible has happened in Zhongzhou."
"Something big? What's so big?" Lu Qing was taken aback.
"I received a message from my master that a few days ago, tribulation clouds appeared on the top of the Holy Mountain. The First Holy Lord broke through the obstacle, triggering his own tribulation and breaking through."
"The First Holy Lord is undergoing tribulation?"
Lu Qing was somewhat surprised, but not too shocked.
He had long anticipated that someone would be undergoing tribulation soon, but he never expected that the first one to break through would not be some old fellow who was in seclusion in one of the four secret realms, but the first Holy Lord of the Holy Mountain.
"Did the First Holy Lord successfully transcend the tribulation?"
"Master said that the First Holy Lord safely passed the tribulation and his cultivation has entered a completely new realm."
But that's not the point. The point is that just as the First Holy Lord had survived the tribulation, two mysterious people suddenly appeared.
One of them, with just one move, severely injured the First Holy Lord and nearly captured him.
Then the two mysterious figures flew up to the Holy City and unleashed a giant magical palm.
With a single palm strike, he left a palm print hundreds of feet in diameter in the holy city, annihilating thousands of its inhabitants.
"What did you say? A mysterious expert severely injured the First Holy Lord who had just survived the tribulation with a single move?"
This time, Lu Qing was truly shocked.
Given the cultivation level of that First Holy Lord, if he survived the tribulation, he must have already achieved the Golden Core stage.
Even though he had just undergone tribulation and was in a weakened state, he was still a true Golden Core cultivator, far superior to a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
How could someone be so severely injured in one move? Could it be that the person who attacked him was a powerful expert at the Golden Core Realm or above?
But the Dao Sound of Heaven and Earth has only been heard five times so far, where did the experts above the Golden Core Realm come from?
"That's right, this is what the First Holy Lord said to his master afterward."
The Holy Lord also said that the two mysterious powerful figures were likely visitors from outer space.
His cultivation is unfathomable; his master and the others must not provoke him, lest they bring about their own annihilation!
"Visitors from outer space!"
Lu Qing was even more shocked.
The "flame" within the Fire Cauldron also began to vibrate.
"Master said that this is just the Holy Lord's guess, and whether it is true or not is still unconfirmed."
But my master sent me a message, telling us, the disciples of Tianji Tower who are traveling abroad, to be extremely careful not to provoke those two mysterious people.
According to news from other places.
After leaving the Holy City, the two mysterious figures appeared in one of the few blessed lands that were fiercely contested by the major powers of the Central Continent.
With swift and decisive action, they wiped out several sects and completely seized several blessed lands.
"..."
The news brought by Lin Zhirui was so shocking that even Lu Qing took more than ten breaths to completely calm down.
He exhaled and smiled, "I understand. Thank you for coming to inform me of such an important matter."
News from Cang County is still too isolated.
Even the Wei family knew very little about the situation in Zhongzhou.
If Lin Zhirui hadn't been there, he probably wouldn't have known about this for quite some time.
"No need to be so polite, but young master Lu, in your opinion, were those two mysterious people really visitors from outer space?"
To be honest, Lin Zhirui was even more shocked than Lu Qing when he received the message from his master.
Therefore, he was particularly eager to know the origins of those two mysterious figures who were able to defeat the First Holy Lord.
