Chapter 256: Fishing for the Great Destiny of Thirty Thousand Lives
“You can’t destroy it, which indeed shows that your cultivation hasn’t reached the realm of the family.”
“Watch closely, I will demonstrate it to you, only once!”
Saying this, Chen Changsheng strode towards the Bronze Ancient Palace.
Facing Chen Changsheng’s actions, the dark energy surged like a tidal wave towards him.
However, that pervasive dark energy had no effect on Chen Changsheng at all.
At this moment, a faint light radiated from Chen Changsheng, preventing the dark energy from invading.
“The ill-fated parasite host, the most important aspect is the heart.”
“If the Dao heart is unstable, naturally it will be found vulnerable by the ill-fated ones.”
“If you can trap it, it shows your Dao heart is solid; if you can’t destroy it, it also indicates that your timing is insufficient.”
As he spoke, a colorless flame ignited on Chen Changsheng.
When touched by this colorless flame, the ill-fated entity beneath the Bronze Ancient Palace immediately let out a wretched cry.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng waved his hand, and the spears on the Bronze Ancient Palace suddenly released a vast amount of mental power.
This mental power was all drawn from the Buddhist Nation by the spears.
A large amount of mental power was ignited by the flame on Chen Changsheng, and the entire Bronze Ancient Palace instantly burst into flames.
The impending crisis made the ill-fated entity restless; it wanted to break the seal and escape.
Unfortunately, the suppression from the Bronze Ancient Palace and the spears rendered it unable to move.
Nalan Xingde’s Dao blockade further prevented it from spreading even a hint of power.
Feeling the tremors of the Bronze Ancient Palace, Chen Changsheng said lightly, “What are you waiting for? You don’t think that if I k*ll you, I would let those people outside go, do you?”
“Within a realm like ours, those outside are merely ants.”
“Do you think I would care about the lives of a group of ants?”
“To tell you the truth, I plan to refine the entire small world, leaving you no chance for resurgence.”
In response to Chen Changsheng’s words, the ill-fated entity made no reply.
It continued to assault the seal, but after several breaths, a massive pulling force suddenly erupted from the Bronze Ancient Palace.
With this pulling force’s emergence, all cultivators in Huayang Cave Heaven instantly turned into dry corpses.
The strength of over ten thousand cultivators converged towards the Bronze Ancient Palace.
“Boom!”
With this surge of power, the ill-fated entity caused the entire Bronze Ancient Palace to shake.
In the face of this situation, Chen Changsheng neither reinforced the seal nor sped up the extermination of the ill-fated entity.
He merely snapped his fingers, and the power of the Ten Sun Blazing Rays formation increased by three parts.
“In this line of work, you must keep your credibility. When I say to exterminate them, I will exterminate them.”
“Thank you for helping me eliminate so many people; otherwise, it would have taken me more time to refine them.”
Seeing this ruthless human before him, the ill-fated entity finally began to panic.
“Save me!”
“You were the one who let me out back then.”
As soon as the words fell, a giant hand reached out from the void, seemingly intent on grabbing the Bronze Ancient Palace.
“Impudent!”
Nalan Xingde shouted in anger and faced the sky-blocking giant hand with his magic treasure.
“Swish!”
“Boom!”
The magic treasure slashed horizontally, carving a massive wound in the palm of the giant hand; however, Nalan Xingde was still swatted away by a single strike.
Powerful! Too powerful!
Regaining his stance, Nalan Xingde wiped the bl**d from the corner of his mouth, his gaze fixed sharply on the giant hand.
Such strength, he had only witnessed in a few people.
Nalan Xingde could not stop the giant hand’s attack, which continued to reach for the Bronze Ancient Palace at incredible speed.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng narrowed his eyes and smiled, “I have been waiting for you for a long time.”
“Make your move!”
With Chen Changsheng’s command, a mirror flew out from another direction in the void.
The reclusive Zhang Zhenren tore through space and stepped out.
“You actually reeled in a big fish.”
“I wondered how this thing would suddenly appear; it turns out someone is behind the scenes!”
“Just right, let me see who this old rat hiding in the shadows truly is.”
As he spoke, Zhang Zhenren brandished his magic treasure and struck forward.
“Boom!”

However, shortly after Zhang Bairen plunged deep into the void, a huge explosion was heard, and he flew out in disarray.
“Cough cough!”
After coughing a couple of times and straightening his tattered clothes, Zhang Bairen complained.
“d*mn it!”
“This guy is too cautious; he even prepared the formation in advance.”
“Can’t you perfect your setups next time? It’s not easy to catch such a big fish.”
In response to Zhang Bairen’s complaints, Chen Changsheng rolled his eyes and said lightly.
“What kind of existence are we trying to catch? You should know this well; is such an existence easy to catch?”
“Just making it show itself is already quite remarkable.”
“I know it’s hard to catch, but this time we startled the snake in the grass; that guy probably won’t poke out for a long time.”
“This is best; a great battle is imminent, and if such an existence intervenes, do you have the confidence?”
“After solving the issue of the Crimson Realm, we will slowly catch the rat.”
“Time is something we have plenty of!”
Hearing this, Zhang Bairen nodded and said, “You make a point; the pressing matter is to solve the issue of the ill-fated entity invading.”
“Additionally, can you withdraw the Ten Sun Blazing Rays formation? My people are about to be cooked alive by you.”
“This guy has started asking for help; that means he’s really out of tricks.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng glanced at the outside situation and said, “Let’s roast a little longer; I’ve adjusted the power of the Ten Sun Blazing Rays formation, and it won’t k*ll anyone for the time being.”
“You know the ill-fated entity’s methods; a cautious ship sails a thousand years.”
In response to Chen Changsheng’s words, Zhang Bairen rolled his eyes dramatically and then sat down cross-legged.
Seeing this, Nalan Xingde and Chen Changsheng also made the same gesture.
A Heavenly Mandate and two top-tier cultivators joined forces to refine the ill-fated entity beneath the Bronze Ancient Palace with all their might.
……
Three days later.
“Swish!”
A large number of cultivators were transferred out of Huayang Cave Heaven.
Looking at the unconscious army on the ground, Zhang Bairen felt as if his heart was bleeding.
“Chen Changsheng, can your methods be a little gentler? It’s not easy for me to gather this little fortune.”
“If you wipe out my savings, do you want me to become a bare commander?”
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng shot a glance at Zhang Bairen and said, “You’re pained about this now? When the great battle begins, will you not end up smashing your head against the wall?”
“While you still haven’t gone into seclusion, give me a bottom line.”
“When we go to war with another Crimson Realm, how many lives do you plan to expend?”
Once this was said, Zhang Bairen fell silent.
“I don’t want to guess this number; just tell me how many you need.”
“Three hundred thousand.”
“What? I’ll give you three hundred thousand!”
“Of those three hundred thousand, how many do you intend to leave for me?”
“They all need to d*e; not a single one survives!”
Upon receiving this answer, Zhang Bairen’s face grew even darker.
“Is there no other way?”
“You’ve seen the ill-fated entity’s methods; not a single exception in the entire Huayang Heaven.”
“That Crimson Realm has been invaded by the ill-fated for so long; even a single spirit inside has the aura of the ill-fated.”
“Eradicating a Crimson Realm takes more than just a moment.”
“Over time, those who enter will also become ill-fated hosts, so three hundred thousand will perish.”
“Even if they are still alive after the battle is over.”
After this, the scene fell silent again.
“Leave me a few; you’ve been studying this for so long; you must have a way.”
“Okay, I have a general idea in mind; it should be able to save some people.”
“The limit is three hundred sixty slots; I can’t do more than that.”
“What method?”
“Abandon the physical body and become a deity with Heavenly Court’s fortune.”
“Considering the situation of the Heavenly Court, there are at most three hundred sixty slots available.”
