Then, he checked the situation inside the immortal mansion and saw a group of little fellows sprawled on the grass, rolling around contentedly, their faces flushed and spirits soaring!
"Crack!"
A sharp peal of thunder sounded, like metal scraping against something hard! Utterly ear-piercing!
In the sky, the golden bell immediately let out a series of heavy hums! Its body trembled violently! Finally, it steadied itself in mid-air, holding its head high, not showing the slightest sign of yielding!
The other five people finally saw what seemed to be undergoing a promotion. One of them had an indescribably complex expression...
"That's... the immortal artifact stolen from Luo Xian Sect! The Golden Bell!"
The promotion of immortal artifacts was extremely difficult, even hundreds of times more challenging than a Heavenly Dao Emperor's promotion to Heavenly Dao Emperor. Many immortal artifacts were destroyed by power surges or stalled, which was why there were so few immortal artifacts in the Upper Realm!
Even their clan didn't have many, and the five of them only had one in their possession. The three Heavenly Dao Emperors were the same!
A few years ago, the Golden Bell was still a first-grade immortal artifact. It had been nearly a hundred years with no progress in promoting to second-grade! Let alone just over three years in Jin Bao'er's hands...
Was this a coincidence or strength?
If it was a coincidence, then Jin Bao'er was lucky enough to have snatched such a treasure! But if it was strength... then Jin Bao'er was simply too terrifying! Her own cultivation advancement speed was monstrous, and it even brought along such a monstrous immortal artifact!
The consequences of having enmity with them for such a person...
Could rival the second Dragon Ancestor!!
Their faces all changed, filled with envy, jealousy, and... deep fear!
"No... it can't be allowed to promote!"
At this moment, one of the elders opened his eyes. Cang Qiong had woken up! Although he was still extremely weak and in immense pain, he had, after all, spent so many years in the Heavenly Dao Emperor realm, so he was still conscious.
Now, he glared fiercely at the sky, his face full of gloom, and ordered the five people! His eyes were wide open! Exceptionally horrifying...
"We absolutely cannot... let that immortal artifact promote! Even if it means death... we must stop it!"
Immortal artifacts could absorb their cultivation, and they could absorb it back! Before their cultivation could fully merge, they absolutely could not let it promote, or he would truly be ruined!
The five heard this, their faces exceedingly grim, but under the pressure, they finally nodded.
Following closely... m..oΓg
A cold snort sounded, and purple eyes were chilling and filled with immense killing intent!
"I advise you to think carefully! To risk your lives for a few wretches who are barely hanging on by a thread, ha! Even if you make a move, what of it? It will just be a few more cripples!"
If it weren't for Bao'er saying that these people had little karma attached to them, he wouldn't have bothered to speak!
As soon as his voice fell, the five people's expressions changed drastically!
That's right, the three elders were almost crippled. Why should they rush in and risk their lives for them? Putting aside whether they feared death, in terms of strength... they couldn't defeat them either!
Elder Cang Qiong was almost suffocated to death! A breath got stuck in his throat, making him feel incredibly uncomfortable, his face turning purple with rage!
"Long Li Xing! You damned beast!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jin Bao'er's eyes turned cold! She raised her hand and unleashed a power of the Great Dao! A pinkish-white light instantly shot out!
"Crack!"
The gaunt old man was sent flying directly, his front teeth knocked out! Mixed with blood and bits of gum! His dilapidated body slammed heavily onto the ground...
Elder Cang Qiong lay on the ground, his withered, wrinkled face contorted in pain! His eyes were filled with intense resentment and killing intent, breathing rapidly, but his heart was filled with astonishment...
He was struck by a mere child? Humiliation! Utter humiliation!!
Jin Bao'er's gaze was sharp, her aura cold and powerful! The power of the Great Dao surged around her, filled with potent killing intent! Her mind went blank for a moment, followed by an intense sense of judgment!
"You... are entangled with karma and soul! Your sins are heavy! My judgment is: death and annihilation of the soul!"
With every word she spoke, she took a step closer. The power of rules surged from her, and a path of extremely majestic holy light was laid out beneath her feet!
After speaking, she walked to within a meter of Elder Cang Qiong! A strong wind surged, her robes fluttered, her black hair flew, and her black eyes were as dark as a black hole, mysterious and powerful! Her noble posture was like a deity descending, aloof, yet just and majestic!
Elder Cang Qiong looked at her, his eyes full of shock and fear! The pressure and unease from the depths of his soul made him tremble uncontrollably! He couldn't utter a single word...
That wasn't mere pressure!! It was a nobler power!!
The next second, Jin Bao'er moved her right hand, and the sharp, cold long sword appeared in her hand. Without hesitation, she swiftly swung it.
"Pfft!"
His head fell to the ground! On his muddied, grotesque face, his eyes were wide open, filled with deep fear and terror...
His aura dissipated! The spiritual energy in his dantian also scattered into the air, making the woman appear beautiful and indifferent!
Jin Bao'er paused, then sheathed the Soul Slasher with a flick of her wrist and walked back with a calm expression...
She smiled as she met Long Li Xing's astonished gaze.
"What? Stunned? Didn't you know? Why are you still like this?"
Long Li Xing snapped back to reality, his face filled with pride and joy! He exclaimed.
"My lady is too powerful! Can your husband not be stunned!"
Indeed, as the Dragon Ancestor, his strength was immense, and he stood at the pinnacle of this Upper Realm! Yet, it was the first time he had personally witnessed the Arbiter unleash this move!
Death and annihilation of the soul! It wasn't just the meaning of soul scattering; even when souls scattered, they would form new souls after a thousand or even ten thousand years, just like burnt wood leaving ashes.
But the phrase 'death and annihilation of the soul,' imbued with the power of the Great Dao of rules, could cause the soul to completely disappear! Never to be reborn.
This was the power of an Arbiter! Only the most just could wield it, the breath of the Great Dao! Supreme justice, supreme authority!
On the other side, the five people who witnessed this scene were stunned! Jin Bao'er's demeanor, actions, and aura just now were absolutely not those of a cultivator, but rather like... a god!
The five shivered subconsciously, seeing fear and awe in each other's eyes...
Jin Bao'er was a person who absolutely could not be offended!
Especially the clan man who had just disdained Jin Bao'er. He wished he could go back half an hour and slap himself hard! What foolish words had he spoken?!
How could he dare to be contemptuous of such a terrifyingly strong woman?!
"Rumble!"
Whether it was because of the Great Dao's power unleashed earlier, the Heavenly Dao in the sky, which was furiously outputting lightning tribulations, trembled...
The lightning... missed its target!!
Golden Bell: Blind? Believe it or not, I'll have my master give you a sword too? ¬_¬｀
Jin Bao'er: Why are you trembling? She's an Arbiter, not a murderer, she wouldn't destroy anything without reason, alright?
Long Li Xing: Well... as expected of his wife! She should have this domineering aura!
