Chapter 2591: Chapter 2592: The Heart Cultivation Hall Strikes with Overwhelming Force
The Clan Leader burst into laughter once more upon hearing this.
"Now, it’s not a question of whether I believe it or not, but rather, my clansmen do not believe it!"
Suddenly, a thought was sent into Princess Xiu’s mind.
Princess Xiu immediately understood: what he wanted was definitely not something as simple as a token!
"My mother was really blind back then, how could she have taught someone like you the art of law!" Princess Xiu said angrily.
However, the Clan Leader was taken aback, then chuckled silently, "How could someone like the Queen possibly take notice of me? Back then, I was just a little attendant student doing odd jobs, but I was the most diligent one!"
Upon hearing this, Princess Xiu suddenly fell silent.
Perhaps, what he felt towards the Queen was more hatred, because the feeling of being ignored by a powerful person is deeply haunting.
"Since the Law Enforcement Elder has given me three days, I have no choice but to use some means. After all, what’s at loss is also the talent of our tribe. In recent days, I’ve been unable to sleep, almost going mad in my cultivation. Now, for the sake of the tribe’s interests, I will temporarily spare your lives, but if you persist in your ignorance, I will have to resort to some methods!"
After saying this, he raised his hand, and a pale flame flickered from his hand.
This flame was only the size of a candle flame, yet the temperature around the altar suddenly rose. The most noticeable ones were naturally the two princesses, because this flame headed directly towards them.
And with their mana sealed, in almost an instant, the two women were drenched in sweat.
Not only that, this flame could burn their divine soul!
"This flame is said to originate from the karmic fire, but it’s not very pure. However, you should be able to feel its power. In at most two days, your divine souls will be completely burned away. Whether or not to hand over the token, you decide!"
Having said this, the Clan Leader flew away, leaving only the pale flame to gradually devour the divine souls of the two princesses.
This scene chilled the hearts of those around, after all, the divine soul is the most fundamental strength determining a cultivator’s life. If the divine soul were to dissipate, it would mean the fall of the cultivator.
However, despite their bodies trembling, the two princesses gritted their teeth and did not utter a single plea for mercy.
The pain of having one’s soul devoured is not something an ordinary person can bear.
As time passed, the people of the Kunshan Tribe below the altar did not disperse; instead, more and more gathered. The teachings of Qingxiu Peak were widely spread across the entire Space-Time Channel.
And the beauty of these two princesses was also a topic of discussion.
But now, with the impending demise of the two princesses, it inevitably left people feeling a bit melancholic, especially the young disciples, whose expressions grew more complex.
However, no one dared to approach the two princesses. Anyone who dared to disobey the orders of the Clan Leader or the Law Enforcement Elder would be immediately executed, even if it was the Grand Elder or the Vice Clan Leader.
In the Clan Leader’s Hall, the Clan Leader stood by the window, from this position, he could see the scene on the altar.
Suddenly, the space behind him twisted, and then a figure emerged, the trusted subordinate of the Clan Leader.
"Reporting to the Clan Leader, everything has been instructed accordingly!" he said respectfully.
"Very good! This time, I want to see what kind of power really exists in the Heart Cultivation Hall!" the Clan Leader said coldly.
"By the way, is there anything unusual from the Law Enforcement Elder’s side?" he suddenly asked.
"Reporting to the Clan Leader, there is nothing unusual!" he replied calmly.
"Hmph, that old thing, I don’t know what he’s up to, obviously his life was saved by the Queen back then, I just don’t believe he would hurt the two princesses! Moreover, I’ve long wanted to get rid of that old dog!" the Clan Leader said sinisterly.
"Clan Leader, please calm your anger. With your current strength, killing him is not a problem!" the subordinate immediately said.
The Clan Leader shook his head, "Don’t underestimate that old dog, even I am unsure of his strength, but if everyone thinks that this is all the strength I have, then they are gravely mistaken. Those Moonwater Tribe fools, who originally had the ability to let the totem reappear in the world, were foiled by a young man, which is fine, let’s leave the grand endeavor of unifying the Space-Time Channel to our Kunshan Tribe!" he said, squinting his eyes.
This Clan Leader now was entirely different from before, there was no previous solemnity, no past righteousness! Completely behaving as a sinister villain.
"By the way, how’s the progress on the totem?"
Upon hearing this, the subordinate finally smiled, "Reporting to the Clan Leader, everything is going smoothly, everyone thinks we have suffered great losses at Qingxiu Peak, but who would have thought, those disciples are just like chicken ribs, merely a distraction by the Clan Leader! The real trump card is still with our Kunshan Tribe!"
The Clan Leader nodded slightly, "Do not be careless, the closer we are to the present moment, the more we need to remain low-key. Now the two princesses are the best cover, after all, the Moonwater Tribe serves as a lesson for us!"
"Understood!" the subordinate responded respectfully.
...
Thus, a day’s time quietly passed, and the pale flame flickered even more.
The two princesses, however, were already in a state of extreme weakness, by now, one-third of their divine souls had been devoured!
If this continues, it will cause serious damage to their foundation!
What is the foundation? It refers to a cultivator’s innate strength and various abilities as a whole! Once damaged, without an immense opportunity, recovery is nearly impossible!
Moreover, the path of cultivation would be halted at this point! In more severe cases, it could endanger their lives.
Just then, the light curtain in the sky suddenly began to ripple violently.
This light curtain, of course, was the protective formation of the Kunshan Tribe, which was no trivial matter and required immense strength to break open.
A grating sound was heard, and then, the clanspeople below the altar witnessed an incredible scene!
The great array in the sky was actually torn open, and a corner of a large hall slowly emerged from the crack!
"It’s the Heart Cultivation Hall attacking, heavens, quickly notify the Clan Leader!"
Immediately, the clanspeople fell into panic.
But the next moment, over half of the Heart Cultivation Hall had breached into the Kunshan Tribe’s domain, and the outer formation was also torn apart by a large portion.
The power emanating from the Heart Cultivation Hall far exceeded the comprehension of the Kunshan Tribe people.
Whoosh whoosh!
Simultaneously, several intense forces suddenly emanated from the Heart Cultivation Hall and moved towards the crowd below the altar.
In an instant, the crowd suffered significant casualties!
