Chapter 1688: Netherflame Serum (2/2)
Alas, there was no chance to redo and no medicine for regrets. After starting on this path, Gu Zun’s fate had been sealed and his death was only a matter of time.
Li Qiye put away the launcher before glancing at the sky where the Black Dragon King has been lurking. However, the king didn’t ask him to stop this time around. This wasn’t Gu Zun’s first mistake so any effort of beseeching was useless. Li Qiye would never stop until Gu Zun’s death.
Because of this, his death was an ideal ending for all parties involved. His existence itself made many people lost sleep in perpetual anxiety.
“Ah!” A miserable scream came from the queen pinned by the Evil Subduer Spear. Her holy self had revealed its true evil color with dark flames floating around. She looked like a devil from the darkness.
The spear intended on refining her into oblivion as well, removing all traces of her from this world. It was created for the sake of destroying the Ancient Ming. Thus, when it started its process, it would burn the bloodline completely so that none would spread to the rest of the world.
The queen was on fire due to the spear. Inch by inch, her flesh was burning. Any existence would be victim to this spear and be erased completely.
Li Qiye said flatly while watching the wailing queen: “You chose this path. Do not blame me for being cruel. I am a human, so when an Ancient Ming appears in front of me, I will muster all my might to destroy them, subjecting them to eternal d.a.m.nation!”
The spectators, no matter how powerful they may be, were speechless. The imperial queen used to be the topic of splendor and royalty, beloved by all, but this was her end today.
Of course, sympathy was nowhere to be found. A human choosing the path of the Ancient Ming, she couldn’t blame anyone for her own choices and must pay the price.
“Poof!” The queen finally turned to ashes. The bright sky behind her disappeared as well. Strands of light returned to Soaring Immortal.
Many disciples and ancestors appeared once again. They cultivated the entry chant or had been tainted by the ancestral blood in the past so they ended up boosting the queen’s bloodline.
After her death, they returned to their original location. However, there was an evil flame floating around their body. The power of darkness from this race had tainted their own bloodline.
“Buzz.” Some disciples began an evil transformation. Some even grew wings and became a half-man, half-monster.
“No!” Seeing this transformation left them pale in horror.
“Whoos.h.!.+” Evil Subduer soared into the sky. With a series of loud explosions, the spear split into many little ones. They instantly pinned all the transformed disciples from Soaring Immortal to the ground, causing them to scream.
s.h.i.+mmering light flowed through the little spears. Each transformed disciple was engulfed in a fire. The spear would never allow this bloodline to exist in this world!
“Ah!” Soaring Immortal became a scene of h.e.l.l. No one would link this place to a sect with five emperors, the sacred ground for cultivation in the eyes of many cultivators.
The lucky survivors were horrified; their knees grew weak and made them tremble. They would never forget today’s scene.
The pure disciples were few in number. They were the ones that have only joined the sect or haven’t trained in the modified version. Of course, some mortals that never trained were spared as well.
Eventually, the screams subsided. All the tainted disciples were turned to ashes and blown away by a gentle breeze. There was nothing left of them in this world.
