Chapter 259 Rounding up equals all dead
Hot lava dripped onto the eaves of the palace.
The palace, crafted from ancient camphor wood, melted like a candle the moment it came into contact with the lava, leaving a huge hole burned in it.
"Sizzle—!!"
"Sizzle—!!"
Several seventh-order formations were also destroyed in succession at this moment.
The protective shield shattered completely, allowing the sea of lava to sweep across the entire palace like a tidal wave.
In just a few breaths, the once magnificent palace was completely submerged in this sea of golden-red lava.
"This...this..."
Upon witnessing this shocking scene, Su Muqing's exquisite face was completely covered by boundless astonishment.
She never expected that the seemingly indestructible seventh-order formations would be forcibly broken by the man before her in such a violent manner.
Her beautiful eyes, which had been filled with worry and doubt, were now filled with nothing but admiration for Lin Hanzhou.
As expected of an adult, I actually tried to teach an adult how to do things. I was really ignorant of my own limitations.
……
Lin Hanzhou looked at the palace completely submerged by lava, but there was no surprise in his eyes.
This was already within his expectations.
Just kidding, these lava rocks contain violent fire elemental power; anyone below the eighth rank who touches them will die instantly.
Even ordinary eighth-level experts would not feel good if they came into contact with this lava.
In the lair of the Firebird Demon Lord, this lava might just be his bathwater.
But in this outside world, this is the world-destroying lava capable of incinerating everything!
How could a few unattended seventh-order formations possibly withstand it?
But just as the endless lava was about to invade the innermost part of the palace...
"Buzz—!!!!"
A golden light, more dazzling than any of the previous formations, burst forth.
Outside the core secret chamber, the last eighth-order formation rose up, forming a golden protective shield that enveloped the entire chamber.
The lava, which would kill a seventh-level cultivator upon contact, landed on the protective barrier, yet the barrier did not melt, clearly indicating that it had temporarily blocked the terrifyingly high temperature of the lava.
"Ha, the last turtle shell?"
Lin Hanzhou sneered and raised his hand to control this sea of lava.
"Freeze!"
Under his control, the lava that was still raging and flowing suddenly seemed to be summoned by a king.
Countless lava flows surged towards the golden shield, condensing in mid-air into a lava spear that was over ten feet long.
"fall!"
With his command, the lava spear plummeted straight down towards the golden shield.
"boom--!!!"
The Lava Spear, imbued with terrifying power, slammed heavily onto the golden shield.
"Snap—!"
The golden shield, which should have been indestructible, shattered under the blow, leaving a large hole.
Lin Hanzhou's figure flashed, transforming into a streak of light and entering the large hole in the protective barrier.
……
Inside the core secret chamber of the palace.
Li Daoyi sat cross-legged on the futon in the center with his eyes closed.
Before him, a top-grade Void Seed, seemingly containing "a world within itself," was slowly rotating, emitting an alluring light.
At this moment, he is wholeheartedly refining this Void Seed.
Although the top-grade Void Seed is excellent, refining it is extremely difficult.
In this short week, his refining progress has barely reached five percent.
However, he knew that this progress was already very fast.
At this rate, he will only need 133 days to completely refine this top-grade Void Seed.
At that time, he will be able to reach the seventh level, and officially touch the threshold of the seventh level Void Realm.
Moreover, he can use this top-grade Void Seed to forge his own top-grade foundation.
As long as he possesses an excellent foundation and takes advantage of the extremely rich "Original Qi of the Void" here, he can successfully break through to the seventh level.
At that time, Li Daoyi will become the most monstrous holy son of the Taiyan Holy Land in nearly ten thousand years!
……
Just then.
"Sizzle—"
A slight tearing sound came from behind him.
"Um?!"
Li Daoyi was suddenly jolted awake from his fantasy of impending success.
As soon as he turned around, he saw a face he would never forget in his life—his fourth junior brother.
"you……"
Li Daoyi's eyes were instantly filled with endless shock and disbelief.
"Chen...Chen Shan?!"
"What are you doing here?"
"How did you get in?"
"I have already won the battle for the Holy Son, and your actions are..."
However, Lin Hanzhou remained silent, and the only response he received was a sword light that was extremely fast.
"Pfft!"
Li Daoyi stopped speaking abruptly, his face filled with terror.
The next moment, a line of blood appeared on his neck, and his terrified head flew high into the air, blood gushing out like a fountain.
The whole process happened in the blink of an eye; Li Daoyi didn't even see the other party draw his sword.
"Who are you……"
His fading soul let out a final, unwilling roar.
He had already obtained the top-grade Void Seed and was in the safest place in the entire secret realm, so why could the other party still come in and kill him?
He was unwilling to accept it; he was just one step away from reaching the pinnacle.
In the end, Li Daoyi's soul, filled with resentment and doubt, completely dissipated.
At the same time, a system notification sounded.
[Ding! Killed Li Daoyi, the Holy Son of the Taiyan Holy Land!]
[Backstab talent successfully activated!]
[The force that betrayed us: Taiyan Holy Land!]
[Impact of the backstabbing: To be assessed!]
[Note: Cultivation rewards will be calculated after the impact assessment is completed!]
Following the prompt in his mind, Lin Hanzhou skillfully collected the "Supreme Void Seed" and all the valuable items on Li Daoyi's body.
He then began looking for his next target.
It's worth mentioning that Zhao Wen wasn't even inside the palace.
However, it wasn't a big problem. With Lin Hanzhou's divine soul perception covering an area of two million miles, he quickly located Zhao Wen's location.
At this moment, the other party is in a valley, where they have found a top-grade Void Seed.
"Sizzle—"
After determining the other party's location, Lin Hanzhou raised his hand, tore through space, and descended in one step.
"Who?!"
Zhao Wen, who was in the valley, sensed a spatial fluctuation and became alert.
But what awaited him was still a sword light that he couldn't react to at all.
"Pfft!"
Another head of a potential holy son flew high into the air.
[Ding! Zhao Wen, Quasi-Holy Son of the Taiyan Holy Land, has been killed!]
[Backstab talent successfully activated!]
……
Thus, the five prospective holy sons of the Taiyan Holy Land in this generation have been determined.
Chief Li Daoyi, dead!
Zhao Wen, the second seat holder, is dead!
Jiang Chen, the third seat holder, is dead!
Chen Shan, the fourth seat holder, died before even entering the secret realm!
The last remaining person, though not dead, was an undercover agent from the Blood Soul Holy Land.
Rounding down, all five quasi-saints of the Taiyan Holy Land died.
