Chapter 55 If the Heavenly Might Covers, the Half-Saint Coughed Up Blood
“What!? The hunting conference has been canceled?”
Upon hearing Gu Changsheng’s words, the crowd below erupted into a clamor, and everyone montarily forgot about their battles with the beasts.
Not only the nurous cultivators but even the mbers of the Gu family were slightly stunned. Their expressions soon turned puzzled and confused as they looked toward the sky.
“It must be that sothing abnormal has occurred within the Northern Wasteland’s Sacred Tomb—sothing vile must have appeared and needs to be destroyed,” Gu Minghuang and others speculated silently as they gazed at the tall, slender figure above.
Many of the young supres shared her thoughts and prepared to listen to an explanation.
At this mont, the golden-robed elder, Ying Feng, seed to sense the crowd’s confusion and calmly explained, “A Saint’s Evil Corpse, sealed within the Northern Wasteland’s Sacred Tomb, has emitted imnse killing intent. For your safety, this year’s hunting conference ends here.”
A Saint’s Evil Corpse!
Saints had long vanished from the world, rarely appearing in the mortal realm.
The consequences of releasing such an Evil Corpse were unimaginable—an act that could lead to endless carnage.
At first, people found these claims hard to believe.
But Gu Changsheng’s words compelled them to take the matter seriously, especially since Qin Qingqing had confird it as well. The Qin family even used their unique divine powers to restore parts of the scenes from that ti.
This could not be faked!
Moreover, foreign immortal materials had fallen here, and eventually, they would need to bury this place to contain the threat.
After much deliberation, the decision was made.
“What? There’s truly a Saint’s Evil Corpse in there?”
The faces of nurous cultivators turned pale, fear flashing in their eyes. They knew very well what such a revelation ant.
Soone quickly reacted. “If the Saint’s Evil Corpse was sealed inside, how did the Gu family’s Divine Son discover it and escape unscathed?”
They found it difficult to imagine.
The might of a Saint was vast and boundless, capable of obliterating starfields with a re flick of a finger, dimming countless stars.
Let alone a Saint’s Evil Corpse, overflowing with murderous intent!
“The Gu family’s Divine Son is truly unfathomable!”
Many young supres looked at Gu Changsheng with even deeper reverence in their eyes.
anwhile, the clan elders with imnse cultivation stepped forward to annihilate the fleeing beast tide and suppress the vengeful spirits spreading in all directions.
The young cultivators participating in the conference began retreating toward Northern Wasteland City, piloting divine ships, warships, and mounts.
“Where is our Daoist Child?”
Ying Feng furrowed his brows. He couldn’t sense the aura of their Daoist Child, Ying Nie, among the crowd and felt perplexed.
His gaze rested briefly on Gu Changsheng’s calm and unchanging expression but didn’t probe further.
For now, the priority was to destroy the Northern Wasteland’s Sacred Tomb!
Boom!
The Gu family’s elders, Qin family’s elder matron, and the powerful figures from the Lake of Immortality took action. Together, they activated the Qiankun Mirror, unleashing endless divine power, which burst forth like brilliant starlight!
Then…
One after another, it was as though stars exploded. A terrifying beam of light, several thousand miles wide, rained down upon the Northern Wasteland’s Sacred Tomb.
The beasts and vengeful spirits still within the tomb—whether intelligent or not—showed expressions of terror and despair.
This was the instinctive fear one feels in the presence of heavenly might.
In the next instant…
The ground shook as if the sky was collapsing.
Endless light erupted, and even the distant spectators felt their eyes stinging, tears streaming uncontrollably.
It was too terrifying!
This was the power of a supre treasure, one whose might surpassed many inherited sacred artifacts despite lacking supre-level formation patterns.
As the light and shockwaves faded, a massive crater—thousands of miles wide—appeared in place of the tomb.
Perhaps, in a few hundred years, this spot might turn into a lake.
But for now, everything within the crater had been reduced to ashes, including the ice palace that once stood there.
Gu Changsheng silently observed, his expression remaining indifferent.
Beside him, Qin Qingqing softly remarked, “This should fulfill the elder’s final wish, right?”
To destroy the Evil Corpse and the Wise Corpse, preventing them from bringing disaster to the world—even in death, the elder did not want to leave trouble for future generations.
She couldn’t help but feel a trace of admiration.
“You could say that,” Gu Changsheng replied calmly. “But that doesn’t matter. The crisis is resolved now, and even the dark beast tide has been dealt with.”
After the Qiankun Mirror’s strike, no beasts would dare approach this area for at least a thousand miles.
Naturally, the risk of contamination by foreign immortal materials was also eliminated.
On the city walls of Northern Wasteland City, the city lord and others heaved a sigh of relief.
Although they hadn’t personally entered the sacred tomb, the revelation of a Saint’s Evil Corpse left them both shocked and worried.
Afterward, their shock turned to deep admiration for Gu Changsheng.
As expected of the Gu family’s Divine Son, a future leader destined to stand atop the immortal realm.
If they had encountered a Saint’s Evil Corpse, survival would have been impossible, let alone escaping to relay the news.
This feat alone far surpassed them all.
“The Gu family’s Divine Son… Why is our Daoist Child still missing? What happened during the ti Qiankun Mirror’s vision was obscured?”
A voice, laced with suppressed anger, suddenly rang out from afar.
Gu Changsheng, about to leave the Northern Wasteland’s borderlands, halted his steps abruptly upon hearing this.
Looking up, he saw a divine streak of light approaching rapidly, almost instantly landing before him.
It was Ying Feng, clad in a golden robe.
He had initially assud the Daoist Child’s absence was due to so matter, but after recalling the obscured vision within Qiankun Mirror, he grew suspicious.
Gu Changsheng clearly had a purpose in obscuring the heavenly chanism, preventing others from peering in.
Now that the Daoist Child was missing, it was highly likely Gu Changsheng was involved.
A terrifying pressure enveloped the area, causing Qin Qingqing beside him to frown slightly, her face paling.
This Ying Feng is undoubtedly a Fifth-Step Tribulation-Realm cultivator—a half-Saint!
A half-Saint’s thought could open heavenly domains and collapse star rivers.
They had nearly transcended the shackles of lifespan itself.
Even the remnant soul of a Saint could persist for hundreds of thousands of years, a testant to their imnse power.
Behind Ying Feng, several figures arrived, including supre powerhouses from the Dead Lake and the Heavenly Dao Sect. Their auras were no weaker than Ying Feng’s.
“Ying Feng, don’t act rashly! If anything happens to our Divine Son, we won’t hesitate to initiate an Immortal War to annihilate starfields and destroy countless ancient stars!”
A Gu family elder, with a grave expression, pursued and sternly warned.
But he was being watched closely by supre powerhouses from the Dead Lake and the Heavenly Dao Sect. If an incident occurred, he wouldn’t have the chance to protect Gu Changsheng.
These forces likely hoped for sothing to happen to the Divine Son, extinguishing the Gu family’s future hope.
“My Daoist Child is missing. I must uncover the truth,” Ying Feng said coldly. Ying Nie was crucial to the Ying family and could not be lost.
“The whereabouts of Ying Nie—how would I know? Whether he’s alive or dead, don’t you have a clue?” Gu Changsheng replied flatly, his expression unchanging, even under the oppressive aura of a half-Saint.
“Impudent!”
Ying Feng’s expression grew grim. Just as he was about to speak further, a thunderous voice exploded beside his ear.
His face turned pale, and he coughed up golden blood infused with Saint’s energy, which collapsed an entire mountain range ahead!
