Chapter 150: Gaining the Upper Hand

Chapter 150: Gaining the Upper Hand

The golden tiny flame floated gently, inconspicuously like a fallen leaf, gradually descending onto the Jiang Family square amidst the puzzled gazes of the onlookers. Just as everyone wondered whether this small flame was indeed the method to obtain merits, they witnessed the azure dragon moving within the clouds!

"Roar—" Accompanied by a resounding dragon roar, the tens of thousands of feet long azure dragon spewed scorching and incredibly intense dragon flames from its mouth, as if it could incinerate even the space itself.

"What is this!?"

"Spare us! Spare us, esteemed senior!!!"

"I don't want to die, I don't want to die!"

"Senior, we'll give you the merits, as much as you want, spare us!!!"

The Jiang Family members finally realized and felt the panic-inducing dragon flames descending from the sky. They panicked and screamed for mercy. Some even knelt before Chen Daoxuan, pleading for their lives.

However, Chen Daoxuan remained unperturbed, casually rubbing his fingers together as though still sensing the warmth left behind by the small flame from earlier.

"This is too terrifying... This can no longer be described as a divine ability; it's likely an immortal technique!"

"The Jiang Family is utterly finished now."

"Hiss... everyone, since that existence and his disciple, the former imperial clan's demonic scion, are here, won't things become quite complicated? More than just involving the insignificant Jiang Family," he questioned.

For a moment, the numerous powerful figures of the Western Regions observing in secret were initially engulfed by the horrifying might of the dragon's flames. Yet, soon they realized an even more dreadful matter.

If Leng Yanran was truly a princess of the former dynasty, then she held a deep-seated enmity with the current Emperor and the reigning imperial family. What's more frightening was that with such an Immortal Master bolstering her, could the current Emperor withstand this?

After Chen Daoxuan employed his divine ability, they no longer harbored doubts and completely recognized his realm—it was that of an Immortal Master! An Immortal Master was one who, after achieving consummate cultivation in the Crossing Tribulation realm, failed to succeed during the Crossing Tribulation but managed to preserve their life using special means.

Ultimately, they became existences above the Crossing Tribulation realm, beneath the Immortal realm. In today's world where Immortals did not emerge, Immortal Masters were already the most preeminent power between heaven and earth!

"Hiss... it's too horrifying. The entire Jiang Family has perished, not a single survivor!"

"Enough of your damn nonsense! Just from the Immortal technique earlier, forget about the Jiang Family's Jiang Ruohai at Fusion Realm First Heaven, even if you throw in a Greater Ascension realm powerhouse, they would be cooked to perfection now, no, they'd already be turned to ashes!"

"Indeed... even from such a distance, I had felt the intense dragon's aura and scorching dragon flames. I couldn't help but shudder uncontrollably."

"This is simply a monster, no, an Immortal!"

Many powerful figures of the Western Regions muttered to themselves in astonishment upon witnessing the scene at the Jiang Family. However, what surprised them was that while not a single figure of the Jiang Family could be found now, the structures remained untouched, not a single trace of damage or scorching.

More astonishingly, scattered across the ground were intact garments, one after another!

The Immortal technique just now actually managed to harm only the physical bodies, leaving other objects completely unharmed!

"But, didn't that Senior mention taking the Jiang Family's merits? Now, in passing, the entire Jiang Family has been annihilated, not to mention killing thousands. Forget about merits, it's probably accumulated negative karma instead!? This... truly doesn't make sense. How can there be merits in killing?"

Suddenly, someone raised a doubt, and the others also realized that while they were supposed to acquire merits, they had abruptly slaughtered everyone. With thousands of lives taken, gaining merits was clearly out of the question, but accumulating negative karma was inevitable!

As expected, when they looked at Chen Daoxuan, they saw a faint grayish cloud of misdeeds descending gradually onto his Spiritual Platform. However, they quickly became even more puzzled. They saw Chen Daoxuan, as if sensing dust about to fall onto him, furrowing his brows and casually waving his hand twice.

"Karma... was directly swept away?"

"Holy crap!? Can this even happen? Karma, the product of heavenly laws, can be swept away? If that's the case, who would fear being entangled by karma? Just take a bath if anything! What kind of trick is this, too dirty, isn't it!?"

Jiang Family was basically obliterated by Chen Daoxuan without a trace, not even a bit of karma from the heavenly laws that resulted from it touched Chen Daoxuan!

"Go ahead, since the Jiang Family is so generous, they're the biggest clients we've had at the Heavenly Dao Pavilion. Let's be a bit more diligent later. Give them special treatment, recite it twice."

Chen Daoxuan glanced at his two disciples by his side and noticed Yourong nervously tugging at his robe, avoiding his gaze. He helplessly understood that Yourong still hadn't started learning the art of salvation. He could only turn to Leng Yanran at his side and give instructions.
