"Boom!!"
The numerous disciples and elders of Mingyue Valley were still peacefully cultivating when an earth-shaking boom erupted, akin to a Category 12 earthquake. The earth trembled, instantly disrupting everyone's tranquil cultivation.
"Ugh!"
"Puff!!"
All the disciples of Liuyun Sect who were in a cultivation state spit blood and suffered severe injuries, experiencing backlash and becoming dispirited.
However, Fang Xiuyuan and other high-ranking elders of Liuyun Sect, protected by numerous defensive spiritual treasures, weren't significantly harmed by the backlash.
Yet, their faces were pale, and their gazes flickered with uncertainty as they pondered the cause of the tremendous shock.
"Is it an external invasion? Go out and see!"
They communicated telepathically and hurriedly emerged from their respective cave residences, witnessing the massive hurricane rampaging across the area!
As soon as Fang Xiuyuan stepped out of his cave, his pupils shrank abruptly. He saw countless Liuyun Sect disciples unable to escape before the hurricane, swept into it, their bodies shredded by countless wind blades, leaving no remains behind!
"This..."
His expression changed, and then he reacted, pinching a seal to activate the array plate of the grand formation they acquired from the relic, while simultaneously throwing out several spiritual treasures!
"Buzz!!"
With the activation of the various array plates buried within Mingyue Valley by Fang Xiuyuan, dazzling lights of different colors instantly blossomed throughout Mingyue Valley, enveloping it in a flash.
There was cyan, red, purple, black...
Making Mingyue Valley seem like it was lit up with neon lights, ready to begin its nightlife...
These formations, once activated, were named:
"Yi Wood Innate Qi Locking Spirit Formation!"
"Sudden Wind and Li Fire Great Desolation Slaughter Formation!"
"Primordial Soul Water Milky Way Formation!"
"..."
These grand formations had previously sealed the entire Mingyue Valley, leaving its disciples and elders unable to escape, and only with the self-detonation sacrifice of their Great Elder was a path barely torn open, allowing some Mingyue Valley disciples to escape.
Now, these formations activated once again, instantly trapping the terrifying hurricane Mu Jinyu had casually conjured. The "Yi Wood Innate Qi Locking Spirit Formation" restrained its spiritual energy, preventing it from growing by absorbing external spiritual energy and forcing it to shrink.
Then the "Sudden Wind and Li Fire Great Desolation Slaughter Formation" collided fiercely with the hurricane. The Southern Bright Fire, taking advantage of the sudden wind, rode the wind upward, cutting and diminishing the Elemental Qi within the hurricane.
Finally, this seemingly unstoppable terrifying hurricane was engulfed, merging into a sudden wind with the "Sudden Wind and Li Fire Great Desolation Slaughter Formation."
"Rumble!!"
At this moment, the "Primordial Soul Water Milky Way Formation" activated, and a black river appeared, spanning the sky with the might of a galactic waterfall, surging towards Mu Jinyu like a massive water dragon!
"Clang!"
Then the spiritual treasure thrown out by Fang Xiuyuan, the "Li Fire God Furnace," opened its lid, and the torrential Southern Bright Fire intertwined with the "Sudden Wind and Li Fire Great Desolation Slaughter Formation," transforming into a heaven-piercing fire dragon. Its menacing posture twisted the void with terrifying heat as it charged towards Mu Jinyu!
This "Li Fire God Furnace" was the finest spiritual treasure in Fang Xiuyuan's possession, a medium grade spirit treasure, almost reaching the level of a superior spiritual treasure.
At this moment, its outpouring divine might, combined with the "Sudden Wind and Li Fire Formation," was even more potent, likely able to rival the Bi Fang Flame from the Bi Fang Treasure Cauldron.
"Good!!"
"Kill him!"
The surviving disciples of Liuyun Sect, seeing their Sect Leader make a move, activating various grand formations to annihilate the intruder, cheered in unison.
Their eyes burned with hatred as they stared at Mu Jinyu walking through the air, their gaze filled with the satisfaction of vengeance, eager to see how Mu Jinyu would meet his end in this deadly clash of the water-fire twin dragons!
"Heh..."
Mu Jinyu stood in the void, watching his thrown hurricane failing to annihilate many Liuyun Sect disciples as Fang Xiuyuan timely intervened. His expression remained calm, as still as an ancient well without the slightest ripple.
Seeing the Li Fire Fire Dragon and the Gui Water Giant Dragon coiling and charging towards him, intertwining closer and closer, about to clash explosively...
"Pushing Sand to Embrace the Moon!"
In this critical moment, Mu Jinyu slowly extended his hands as if pushing open a window veil, causing the approaching water-fire twin dragons to tremble slightly and separate some distance.
Then, Mu Jinyu's extended hands slowly made a hugging motion, akin to performing Tai Chi, yet resembling a banished immortal pushing open a window veil, leaping to sit atop the clouds, extending his hands to embrace the moon...
Suddenly, the terrifying water-fire dragons flowed in with Mu Jinyu's embracing motion, converging into the moon that Mu Jinyu had drawn.
But this moon wasn't silver-white; it was composed of black and red, resembling a pair of Yin Yang Fish, rotating endlessly within Mu Jinyu's embrace!
Exuding a terrifying aura imbued with Dao Rhyme!
"This... this... this..."
The disciples of Liuyun Sect and Fang Xiuyuan were all dumbfounded by this scene, their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets!
"Go!"
Mu Jinyu uttered softly, pushing forward with his hands again, sending the "black-red" moon speeding towards Mingyue Valley!
"Run!"
Fang Xiuyuan realized the situation, his soul almost fleeing in fear, and shouted, repeatedly pulling out defensive spiritual treasures to shield himself.
Just as he completed his defensive actions, the black-red moon fell into the heart of Mingyue Valley and exploded violently!
"Rumble!!"
Like a nuclear explosion, a massive mushroom cloud erupted in Mingyue Valley!
Tens of thousands of disciples within Mingyue Valley were obliterated in an instant. Only a few survived by chance, merely clinging to life, severely injured and near death.
Mu Jinyu gazed at the emergence of the mushroom cloud, his expression indifferent, devoid of the slightest pity or guilt.
He held no emotional response to the deaths of the tens of thousands of Liuyun Sect disciples.
Regarding the ordinary disciples of Blood Sword Sect, Mu Jinyu was unsure if each of them participated in any heinous actions. Coupled with his enmity with Blood Sword Sect originating from high-level scheming, unrelated to ordinary disciples.
Thus, he chose not to exterminate the ordinary disciples of Blood Sword Sect but merely abolished their cultivation, turning them into mortals to live ordinary lives.
However, upon hearing Ji Li's account, Mu Jinyu knew that every disciple of Liuyun Sect participated in the massacre of Mingyue Valley.
And since he came here to avenge the destruction of Mingyue Valley for Ji Li, those culpable in the massacre had to be executed, leaving no safe path, an eye for an eye!
"Ah!!"
A few minutes later, as the mushroom cloud dissipated and the dust settled, a painful roar echoed like a wounded beast: "Who are you, why do this to us, Liuyun Sect?!"
It was the barely surviving Fang Xiuyuan, having thrown out several defensive spiritual treasures.
At this moment, his clothes were tattered, his appearance unrecognizable, resembling a beggar, standing amidst the ruins and debris, his blood-red eyes locked onto Mu Jinyu, with a seething hatred that could almost consume Mu Jinyu alive.
Mu Jinyu chuckled lightly, teasingly said, "Who am I? Hehe... I am Xiang Yinxui, the chief disciple of the annihilated Mingyue Valley, by your hands."
