The greatest saint of all time!

Chapter 124: Destroy Dachu!

Of course, Lu Xuan also knew the rules of the third trial of the Ziyang Sect.

That is a two-way selection between disciples and elders.

If a disciple chooses an elder but the elder doesn't approve of him, then that disciple is basically ruined, and other elders won't accept him again for the sake of face.

Conversely, if an elder takes a liking to a disciple and the disciple doesn't choose him, it's just a little awkward.

Given his current performance, even if he doesn't become Elder Chi Huo, he'll likely have a way out.

Elder Chi Huo was not angry when he heard this.

This kid can remain calm and composed in the face of such temptation; such composure is truly rare.

"Great! That's unique!"

Elder Chi Huo laughed heartily.

"In that case, I'll be waiting for you at the Ziyang Sect!"

"I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer then!"

After speaking, he turned to look at Lu Tianxing beside him, his expression becoming more serious.

"Lu Tianxing, let's put this matter of the Yin Sha Sect on hold for now."

"Since the old ghost of the underworld promised in public that he would not interfere again, he would never dare to go back on his word."

"Now that the State of Chu has lost its backing and is in chaos, it is the perfect time for your Great Yan to unify the two countries."

"You have now broken through to the Returning Origin Realm, which makes you one of the top combatants in this mortal world."

"Let's seize this opportunity and take it all in one fell swoop!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Tianxing's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he immediately nodded solemnly.

"Rest assured, Elder!"

"I will immediately muster the troops and personally lead the army into battle!"

"Within a month, we will make the Great Chu Dynasty completely disappear from this land!"

Elder Chi Huo nodded in satisfaction.

"Very well! Then I'll await good news... I'm off."

Having said that, he didn't linger any longer. He transformed into a streak of purple light and soared into the sky, disappearing into the eastern horizon with the group he had brought with him in the blink of an eye.

Watching Elder Chi Huo and the others leave, Lu Xuan and his son Lu Tianxing exchanged a glance.

The Great Chu Dynasty, this piece of fat meat, has finally come to our doorstep.

……

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, especially for the unstoppable Great Yan army; it was just a fleeting moment.

The capital of the Great Chu Dynasty, a magnificent city that has stood for hundreds of years.

The once indestructible city-protecting formation had long since been shattered under the continuous bombardment of Lu Tianxing, a powerful expert at the Returning Origin Realm.

On the city wall, the Chu flag was broken, and the tattered banners fluttered in the cold wind.

Lu Xuan, dressed in a black brocade robe and holding the Devouring Heaven Sword, stood quietly beside Lu Tianxing.

The father and son were hovering directly above the capital, looking down at the city.

Below, General Wang Ji was commanding hundreds of thousands of Great Yan cavalry to surge into the city through the breached city gate.

"it's over."

Looking at the defeated Chu army, Lu Tianxing's eyes showed not much joy, but rather a touch of melancholy.

Centuries of sworn enemies and generations of grudges finally came to a complete end in his generation.

"Father, we must not be careless."

Lu Xuan frowned slightly, and the Devouring Heaven Sword in his hand emitted a soft hum, as if it had sensed something.

"Although the Chu royal family is doomed, the Madman of Chu has not shown his face since we besieged the city."

"Deep within this palace, there still lingers an extremely unsettling stench of blood."

Upon hearing this, Lu Tianxing's expression also turned solemn.

He naturally sensed that something was wrong.

Logically speaking, when the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed, given the personality of the madman of Chu, he should either come out to fight to the death or commit suicide to die for his country.

But now, the palace hall was eerily quiet.

"Let's go see what he's up to!"

Lu Tianxing snorted coldly, flicked his crimson spear, and transformed into a golden light, heading straight for the main hall of the imperial palace.

Lu Xuan followed closely behind, his spiritual energy circulating secretly within him, and the Primordial Pearl ready to be activated at any moment.

The two flew smoothly to the square in front of the Golden Palace.

The place was deserted; there wasn't a single guard, not even a maid or eunuch in sight.

Only from the cracks in the tightly closed doors of the main hall, crimson blood seeped continuously, flowing slowly down the white marble steps, staining the entire square a shocking crimson.

"Chu the Madman! Get out here for me!"

Lu Tianxing roared and thrust his spear out.

boom!

The heavy golden nanmu wood door shattered instantly, turning into a shower of wood chips.

The scene inside the main hall was finally revealed to the father and son.

The once spacious hall was now filled with corpses.

There were imperial guards, palace maids and eunuchs, and even many ministers in court attire, as well as members of the imperial family.

Their bodies lay there haphazardly, each with a wound about an inch long on their neck.

The blood had long since drained away, pooling in a blood pool within the main hall.

In front of the blood pool, Emperor Chu Kuangren of the Great Chu Dynasty sat on the dragon throne with disheveled hair.

His bright yellow dragon robe was now stained dark purple with blood.

His eyes were bloodshot, and his face wore an almost manic smile.

In his hand he held a cup made from a skull, filled with scarlet blood.

"Lu Tianxing, you've finally arrived!"

Upon seeing Lu Xuan and the other man enter, Chu Kuangren drank the blood in his cup in one gulp, then smashed the skull on the ground and slowly stood up.

As he moved, the blood pool on the ground suddenly began to boil.

Countless blood-red runes rose from the water and quickly covered the walls and pillars of the entire hall.

Then, a nauseating, bloody aura filled the entire space.

Upon seeing the corpses scattered all over the ground, Lu Tianxing's pupils suddenly contracted.

"You're insane!"

Even though he was ruthless and decisive, he would never slaughter his own subjects and relatives.

"Mad? Hahaha! I've gone mad!"

Chu Kuangren laughed wildly, his voice filled with a chilling malice.

"I am about to destroy my country and wipe out my race, what are they still living for?"

"Why not have them offer up their lifeblood to help me, and drag you and your son down to hell together!"

"This is the Imperial Advisor's trump card that he left for me!"

"Blood Sacrifice Asura Formation!"

Before he could finish speaking, Chu Kuangren suddenly opened his arms wide.

The blood in the pool seemed to be drawn by something, transforming into long, blood-red snakes that frantically burrowed into his seven orifices.

boom!

Chu Kuangren's aura began to surge wildly.

Originally only at the peak of the Heavenly Origin Realm, he was forced to break through the shackles and enter the Returning Origin Realm under the infusion of this evil power.

It's even continuing to climb, approaching the second level of the Returning Origin Realm!

But the price he paid for it was also heavy.

The skin began to crack and split open, revealing the writhing flesh inside.

His hair fell out instantly, and two hideous blood horns grew on his head.

He was no longer recognizable as a human, but had become a blood demon who only knew how to kill!
