Chapter 2275 - 2264: The Black Coffin Executes Yao Qingjiao Alive

"Yao Qingjiao, this black coffin is the last farewell gift I, Lin Zifeng, have prepared for you. I hope you remember my kindness down below, and thus can die without regrets." Just as Lin Zifeng’s words fell, his originally handsome and extraordinary face began to twist and change gradually.

"What! It’s you!" Yao Qingjiao, with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, slowly crawled up and instantly recognized Lin Zifeng’s true appearance. But it was too late; Lin Zifeng dared to reveal his true face in front of him, indicating that everyone present who had seen his real appearance would have to die!

"You, you’re not dead? Impossible! That’s impossible, weren’t you already dead? The whole world was buzzing with it, could it be that you have come back from the dead?" Yao Qingjiao could never have imagined that the mysterious figure emerging from the Holy Land was actually Lin Zifeng. Moreover, after being gone for such a long time, his cultivation had greatly improved, and he easily slew Yao Chenfeng with a mere wave of his hand.

Not even needing a single move, he defeated himself, so where on earth had he disappeared to during this period? Could it be that he found his own great fortune?

"Yao Qingjiao, oh Yao Qingjiao, aren’t you surprised that I’m not dead?" Lin Zifeng approached with a cheerful smile, like a Death God, exuding a chilling aura directly at Yao Qingjiao’s head. Initially, everyone in the Demon God Hall was filled with righteous indignation, wanting to avenge Yao Chenfeng, but now, under the fierce might of Lin Zifeng’s dominance.

They were already scared out of their wits.

"Your enemy is standing right in front of you, and even if you don’t make a move, everyone who has seen my true face must die! You all come at me!" Lin Zifeng’s aura was all-revealing, with a tendency to slaughter everyone in the Demon God Sect. In this Demon God Hall, gathered are a group of twenty or thirty people; killing them all would be an easy task for the current Lin Zifeng.

"Lin, do you intend to oppose all the cultivators in the Mortal World?" Yao Qingjiao roared hysterically, "Even if today I, Yao Qingjiao, die, and our Demon God Sect is destroyed, you have already broken the balance of the Mortal World. Aren’t you afraid that all cultivators in the Mortal World will unite to punish you?"

"Hahaha... If I were afraid of these, why would I come looking for you?"

Space gravity and various battle skills emerged in endless succession, once again slapping Yao Qingjiao dozens of meters away on the spot, and then, that gigantic black coffin opened.

The black coffin soared to the sky and plummeted downward, enclosing Yao Qingjiao alive. No matter how he resisted and attempted to shatter the black coffin, he had no way to do so.

"Boom!"

An abrupt Iron Fist emerged from behind the black coffin, piercing through and going right through Yao Qingjiao’s back.

Spurt～

Yao Qingjiao spewed scarlet blood, his eyes turned green, and the Elemental Power Seed within him was forcibly extracted by Lin Zifeng, with a bloody chunk of his flesh clutched in Lin Zifeng’s hands.

"Close the coffin!"

With a roar, the lid of the black coffin gradually closed, unyieldingly sealing Yao Qingjiao’s body within the coffin!

"No, no, no～!"

Everyone in the Demon God Hall roared out in anguish, but it was already too late.

A massive Gray Dragon Hand descended, nearly pressing everyone beneath it into a bloody pulp...

Within just one night, nearly the entire Demon God Sect was eradicated, and Lin Zifeng’s heartless slaughter mowed down countless individuals.

The next morning, he roamed like a Death God on the edge of Hell, seeking out those who might be a threat to the Holy Land. In just a few days, almost every force opposing the Holy Land was crushed by a mysterious figure.

Either dead or injured, none escaped the severe punishment from the Death God!

This news quickly reached the Holy Land, and everyone knew this was likely the work of the mysterious guy, claiming to be Lin Zifeng’s old friend.

It was simply satisfying, yet the mysterious man’s actions caused Hua Tiandu to feel a twinge of fear, knowing the secret business he had with Cang Jinyun. If that mysterious man exposed it,

his status in the Holy Land would be truly untenable. More importantly, Cang Jinyun fortunately had not made a move; otherwise, it would have been truly over.

Elsewhere, in the Third Parallel Universe...

On the streets of the Lianyun Empire’s capital, Martial God Marquis Mansion, passersby hurried with lowered heads, afraid of eliciting the discontent of the Golden Armor Guards at the gates of the Martial God Mansion.

However, there was a group different from other passersby, strolling leisurely and observing all around, but the occasionally sword-like glint in their muddy eyes under their hats indicated they were not ordinary people.

The group consisted of six people: four frail old men and two strong men covered in dark red robes, even their faces appeared to bear grotesque mask-like visages. Passersby occasionally glancing up at them would be frightened by the bloodthirsty aura emitted by the two strong men, prompting them to quickly flee in fear.

"Brother Green-clothed, was White Sky really killed by those two renegades, Dongfang Ziyue and Lin Zifeng?"

The speaker, beneath the straw hat, an aged face marked by the signs of time, cannot conceal the youthful vigor of past years. This person is none other than Dragon Slayer Venerable, ranked second among the five supreme figures of the Beiyao Ancient Clan!

Nodding slightly, Green-clothed Venerable let out a cold snort filled with dissatisfaction, and said sternly, "I witnessed it myself, could it be false? Don’t tell me, Dragon Slayer, you are doubting me!?"

That final low shout from Green-clothed Venerable contained the overwhelming might of a Thunder Tribulation Expert. Even Dragon Slayer Venerable, whose cultivation was formidable, could not help but secretly click his tongue, and his face broke into repeated smiles, which caused Green-clothed Venerable to retract the oppressive gaze fixed upon him.

Ranked second, Dragon Slayer Venerable was left speechless, so Wen Quan and Jiuzhou Venerable naturally dared not speak more, and had to lower their heads, secretly marveling at Lin Zifeng’s strength.

Leading the group, Green-clothed Venerable, with the edge of his eyes filled with Yin Ji, took in the sight before him, his mouth curling into an almost imperceptible sinister smile.

The death of White Sky was known only to him, Green-clothed alone! Anyway, the Soul-devouring Blood Python and White Sky Venerable’s corpses had been pulverized by his Elemental Power. No evidence of death existed, and they had no choice but to believe whatever he fabricated!

In truth, back in the forest, had Green-clothed Venerable stayed his steps to save White Sky Venerable, a life might have been saved, but it would have delayed the pursuit of Lin Zifeng and others.

Furthermore, had Lin Zifeng not accidentally triggered the evolution of the Soul-devouring Demon Python, Green-clothed Venerable would never have harbored a killing intent toward White Sky, who shared the title of Five Supreme Venerables!

The higher one stands, the more people covet that position; this principle, deeply ingrained in Green-clothed Venerable since he became the head among the Five Supreme Venerables.

White Sky Venerable’s strength was unfathomable to ordinary people, yet Green-clothed was fully aware! White Sky had always hidden his strength, biding time; his true realm strength probably rivaled Dragon Slayer Venerable, ranked second!

Had Green-clothed Venerable saved White Sky, the full maturation of the Soul-devouring Blood Python would almost certainly have led to a breakthrough in the Thunder Tribulation. Then, White Sky would possess the strength and courage to trample Green-clothed beneath his feet!

Knowing White Sky Venerable’s temperament, Green-clothed was thoroughly aware, and thus decided to eliminate future troubles completely by slaying White Sky Venerable! And the crime conveniently pinned on Lin Zifeng and others would bestow him the glory of vanquishing rebellious disciples!

Furthermore, taking advantage of this situation, Dragon Slayer Venerable, upon learning of his comrade’s death, would surely be enraged and resentful toward Lin Zifeng. This was an opportunity to make Dragon Slayer wholly loyal to him!

The schemes of Green-clothed Venerable were undeniably well-crafted; he had even begun to envision Lin Zifeng kneeling before him, his eyes filled with unwillingness as death awaited!

In the midst of pondering, the words of the slightly doubtful Dragon Slayer Venerable behind him interrupted Green-clothed’s thoughts, "Big brother Green-clothed, how are you certain that Lin Zifeng and Dongfang Ziyue, those two rebellious disciples, are now in the Martial God Marquis Mansion?"

With a derisive snort, Green-clothed Venerable placed his hands behind his back, spoke in a venerable tone, "Consider this, the place they transmitted to—had it been within other Ancient Clans, I would surely have received word, but among the remaining four Ancient Clans, there has been no unusual activity today."

"Therefore, it’s only possible that those two rebellious disciples transmitted to one of the four dire lands."

At these words, Green-clothed Venerable slightly turned his head, seeing that Dragon Slayer Venerable still bore an expression of confusion. He sighed deeply before continuing, "Should they manage to escape, with nowhere to turn, they could only seek refuge at Dongfang Ziyue’s Martial God Marquis Mansion!"

Upon hearing this, Dragon Slayer Venerable finally nodded in understanding, then brushed his withered fingers through his whitening beard, speaking in a solemn tone, "And what if there is no trace of them at the Martial God Marquis Mansion, then what?"

Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Green-clothed Venerable’s formerly oppressive face twisted into a bloodthirsty and ferocious smile, saying word by word, "Destroying the Human Sacrifice Tower of our clan, such a grave crime, even if those two rebellious disciples were killed a thousand times, it would still not be enough!"

"Even if those two rebellious disciples are present, so be it; if not... hmph hmph... then I will massacre the Martial God Marquis Mansion!"

Before the words were fully spoken, Green-clothed Venerable no longer concealed himself. With a sudden jerk of his right hand, the cloak covering his body was blown to pieces, revealing a noble long green robe, his favorite attire of the past!

Seeing their leader no longer hiding, the other three Venerables also tossed away their cloaks, the exquisite robes they wore were far from what ordinary and hunched elders could afford!

Their commotion did not escape the attention of the two solemnly armed guards clad in golden armor at the stately and dignified main gate of the Martial God Marquis Mansion. The guards exchanged glances; the one on the right nodded and drew the sword at his waist, advancing towards Green-clothed Venerable and others with murderous intent.

"Who dares to cause chaos at the Martial God Marquis Mansion! Wise ones, get lost quickly, or if my lord Marquis is disturbed, don’t blame my sword for indiscriminately slaughtering civilians!"

As he spoke, the golden-armored guard subtly used Elemental Power, causing the already glowing sword to emit a dazzling brilliance, streaks of killing intent seemed almost tangible as they surged towards the group.

To the guard’s surprise, those civilians who usually bowed respectfully upon seeing him, today these old men looked at him with... an expression as if mocking the condemned?

This contemptuous gaze made the guard quite displeased; warnings had been issued, and even if he slaughtered a few civilians before his family’s mansion gates, who would dare say anything!?

Immediately, he let out an explosive shout, his body suddenly surged forward, charging toward the elder at the forefront—the one with a sinister grin, Green-clothed Venerable.

The sword radiance flickered, the sharp blade drew through the air, creating a piercing sound, seemingly about to pierce Green-clothed Venerable’s chest, yet Green-clothed Venerable remained unmoved, not budging even an inch.
