Chapter 147: They’re Already Extinct
The opening of Wan Guo Temple left various sects momentarily frozen in place.
You see, those big sects often explore some secret realms.
They know that any secret realm, or ruin, is incredibly dangerous.
So, the usual trick of these big sects is to wait it out.
This waiting game is supposedly giving the loose cultivators a chance.
But if we’re being blunt, it’s just a way to let the loose cultivators do the dangerous work first.
Then, those big sects can just sit back and reap the benefits.
What those sects didn’t expect was watching all the loose cultivators rush into the secret realm.
This left them a bit flabbergasted.
Soon enough, the members of those sects became anxious.
They hurried to enter Wan Guo Temple as well.
They gladly offered treasures, hoping to obtain that string-like golden wire.
But for some reason, as they looked at that giant Buddha statue, they felt like the statue was glaring back—fuming with anger.
It was as if it were saying, “Dare to be angry but can’t speak out.”
“Is this… just my imagination?”
That’s all they could think.
What left them dumbfounded was how they had to sacrifice nearly everything just to get a single strand of gold.
Some even had hardly anything to offer.
And despite sacrificing their treasures, some didn’t receive the golden wire at all!
“This can’t be real! How did those loose cultivators gain the entry qualifications? Where did they get their treasures?”
What they didn’t know was that the loose cultivators were practically gambling with their lives, wrangling with two Yama Kings for their merits.
They even came dangerously close to pulling some hair off of Yama!
Just then, Lin Wudao strolled into Wan Guo Temple.
Thanks to his appearance and that Nanguo family token he had, no one dared to mess with him.
Lin Wudao and his group approached the giant Buddha.
After eyeing the Buddha’s golden bowl, he looked back at the Buddha.
But rather than present any treasures, he pulled out a book and started flipping through it.
“Hmm, unjust Buddha, malevolent in every way, deceiving all beings, Earth and Heaven, judge and execute — NOW!”
Lin Wudao’s voice rang out faintly.
Everyone stared at him as if he were crazy.
Is this guy serious? You want to kill a statue?
But before anyone could object, the next scene left everyone utterly shocked.
The statue stood up.
Yes! It actually stood up!
This golden Buddha towered nearly five meters high like a giant.
Fear gripped everyone’s hearts at that moment.
Someone shouted at Lin Wudao, “What are you doing? How could you anger the Buddha? Kneel and apologize at once! If the Buddha gets angry…”
But before they could finish, the Buddha’s massive hand came crashing down.
“Boom~”
Dust exploded everywhere.
That golden Buddha slapped down, turning the loudmouth into a flat pancake.
Then, clutching its golden bowl, the Buddha promptly turned and ran!
Everyone: “??? Wait, it’s RUNNING?!”
They all looked at Lin Wudao, who’s currently wearing a mask and looking nonchalant.
Lin Wudao ignored the crowd and took his people directly into the back of Wan Guo Temple.
No one stopped them.
Suddenly, everyone realized something.
“Wait, we don’t need to offer treasures to enter the secret realm?”
Someone questioned.
Then others tried it out.
And sure enough, they could enter the back of Wan Guo Temple without sacrificing anything.
Everyone: “…”
They realized they’d been played.
In an instant, the faces of all the major sects turned flaming red.
……
……
Regarding the Wan Guo Temple matter, Ji Suying stayed out of it.
She knew that Wan Guo Temple wasn’t a real secret realm.
Sure, the Reincarnation Disk might be real.
But that thing certainly wouldn’t be something anyone could obtain.
Moreover, within that kingdom’s secret realm lay a massive terror.
This time, the opening of the Wan Guo secret realm meant that the great terror sensed the presence of many living beings and just opened its mouth, waiting for those people to walk right in and bring their doom.
To put it simply, the stuff inside was hungry.
In her past life, she had entered.
But there was nothing there, just endless malevolent spirits and dangers.
Though Wan Guo Temple was a temple, the back courtyard was like a hellish purgatory.
While everyone rushed into the Wan Guo Temple, Ji Suying planned to go kill some people.
Specifically, members of the Heavenly God Sect.
This secret realm held great opportunities for them, particularly the endless blood pool.
In her past life, everyone wanted that endless blood pool, but they all ended up failing.
Meanwhile, the Heavenly God Sect effortlessly claimed it.
After that, the Heavenly God Sect rose to incredible heights, almost impossible to comprehend.
But eventually, after the demons invaded, the Heavenly God Sect turned on its own and started slaughtering the beings of the celestial realm.
Naturally, Ji Suying wouldn’t let the Heavenly God Sect exist.
Thus, with the secret realm opening, she prepared to kill.
However…
She waited three days at the mandatory route leading into the Heavenly God Sect’s cave.
Yet, still no sign of them.
Not even Abe Luoxue, who was about to become the Blood Demon Saintess.
Ji Suying frowned.
“What’s going on?”
After another few days without any sight of the Heavenly God Sect, unease crept in.
“Something’s off!”
Hastily, Ji Suying sought out the Third Prince.
But when she found him, she was left dumbfounded.
The Third Prince in her memory was elegant, congenial, something like a jade-like scion.
Yet, seeing the Third Prince before her now, adorned in top-notch magical gear, with a spatial bracelet on his wrist and a peak defensive treasure—a Longevity Gold Lock—around his neck, plus he was busy enjoying entertainment.
“Is this really the Third Prince?”
Ji Suying questioned her own eyes.
Her first reaction was, “No way, did something take over his body?”
With a puzzled mind, she approached the Third Prince and cleared her throat, “Ahem~”
The Third Prince turned and quickly stood to greet her.
But as he stood, all his magical gear clinked and clanked.
Ji Suying then noticed several thick gold chains around his neck and a heart-protecting mirror on his chest.
He looked like a total wastrel!
The Third Prince glanced at his bling with an air of resignation. “I think this getup is too gaudy, but I can’t help it; my backer insists I wear this!”
“But never mind that, let’s talk about why you found me!”
His explanation made Ji Suying dazed for a moment.
“I need you to look into a certain force for me!”
“That force is called the Heavenly God Sect. Have they entered the cave?”
In the Third Prince’s mind, he received a message from the Hall of Yama.
“Master, all the Heavenly God Sect members have been drained by your dad in the Void!”
The Third Prince’s legs shook.
My goodness! My two dads went all Void-killing on them?
“Wait, hold on, the entire Heavenly God Sect?”
He checked back for confirmation.
Yama Palace nodded. “Yes, and this was orchestrated by the Great Yama!”
The Third Prince’s face paled slightly.
Turning to Ji Suying, he said, “Uh, about the Heavenly God Sect… they’re already extinct!”
Ji Suying: “!!!”
