Chapter 183: Chu Huaixu is a Supreme-grade Spirit Embryo?
Due to Jiang Zhi’s presence, tasks like these sect missions had basically become everyone helping Little Martial Uncle Ancestor deal with the fish that slipped through the net.
All the big ones had already been completely wiped out by him—what remained were just some small fry.
However, the so-called Attaining Dao Through Killing placed emphasis on gaining insights through slaughter, on comprehending the Dao in the midst of killing.
It was fundamentally different from the methods of Evil Cultivators who devoured others' Spirit Embryos.
Chu Huaixu was fully aware of how clean the area under the Dao Gate's jurisdiction had become.
And he even felt a little regretful about it.
“Damn it, all the quality bosses got wiped out by that old bastard.”
He had seen complaints from Dao Gate players on the forums earlier, saying it was nearly impossible to find any bosses in the wild zones anymore.
If someone managed to run into an 【Elite Monster】, it was sheer dumb luck.
That Little Martial Uncle Ancestor really did a full-on carpet sweep.
This wasn’t demon-cleansing—it was more like exterminating entire clans.
It truly lived up to those four words: “Eliminate Evil to the Last!”
At this moment, the group had already dived beneath the water, yet sensed nothing unusual.
“There must be some kind of illusion technique.” Liu Tianfeng transmitted his voice to everyone.
Just as he was about to activate a technique to dispel it, he saw Chu Huaixu swim ahead.
This young man, bearing the Dao Ancestor’s Sword Scabbard on his back, stood within the barrier formed by the Water-Repelling Pearl. With a gentle wave of his sleeve, he then placed his hands behind his back.
Just that one sleeve-wave shattered the surroundings like a mirror!
Heart Sword Slash—All illusions, reduced to dust!
Everyone was momentarily stunned, eyes slightly widened.
No one understood how he had done it.
They only felt—truly worthy of being the Xuanhuang Champion!
Before them, a submerged stone door surfaced.
Liu Tianfeng and Mo Qingmei exchanged a glance and acted in unison.
The former drew his saber, and the latter unsheathed her sword.
Saber aura and sword aura slashed forward, instantly shattering the restriction on the stone door.
“So weak?” the two thought in unison.
The two Outer Sect Stewards increasingly suspected that this place was only guarded by minor riffraff.
“Looks like Zhao Qianfeng wasn’t lying after all.”
They led the disciples inside through the stone door.
Inside was a long passageway.
At the end, there appeared to be a small altar.
The Evil Cultivators inside quickly realized what was happening. The moment they saw the Dao Gate insignias, without bothering to check how many people had come or their cultivation levels, they immediately scrambled to flee...
They had no intention of facing their enemies head-on.
“Oh, you’re here? Great, I’m outta here.”
In the entire area under Dao Gate control, these scum had long since been scared witless by Jiang Zhi.
They probably had conditioned fear responses to seeing Dao Gate robes.
This helped the less experienced Outer Sect disciples finally understand why Steward Liu said they were just a ragtag bunch.
Liu Tianfeng immediately pulled out a compass from his Storage Token.
A drop of blood from his fingertip landed on it, and blood-red patterns bloomed.
He threw it, and it instantly transformed into a restriction, sealing off the entire area.
Then he and Mo Qingmei led the charge forward.
Seeing this, Chu Huaixu furrowed his brow.
“No good! I’ve got to grab the kills!” he decided instantly.
That the Evil Cultivators here were this weak had indeed exceeded his expectations.
In a flash, his figure turned into a blur, speed nearly matching that of the two stewards.
With his Great Perfection-level 【Flying Profound】 and the terrifying explosive strength from his Body Training, he was even faster than the Second Realm Outer Sect disciples.
He hadn’t even reached the altar yet, but had already begun long-range assaults.
—【Thunder at Fingertips】!
One after another, bolts of True Gang shot out, reaping filthy lives with each strike.
Liu Tianfeng and Mo Qingmei exchanged another glance, this time dazed.
Elder Li Chunsong had made it clear: this mission was meant to temper Chu Huaixu’s killing intent!
To ensure this Xuanhuang Champion, who had never taken a life, would not hesitate when it was time to kill.
“Does this look like someone who’s never killed before?” Both stewards had the same thought.
Chu Huaixu’s expression remained calm and emotionless.
Every strike was swift, precise, and lethal—aimed directly at vital points to finish with a single blow.
He resembled a grim reaper, his eyes full of cold indifference.
If there was any emotion beyond indifference, it would be a hint of excitement... and perhaps, anxiety?
Yes, he was desperate to kill!
Like a starving ghost scrambling for food.
“Damn grim reaper’s out here fighting for performance stats!”
“Tch! What the hell is this? Only giving out this little experience?” Chu Huaixu’s heart grumbled in frustration.
These were all trash, not even worth comparing to Lang Yue.
Not a single one possessed the strength of one Lang.
Moreover, now that they had no escape, they should’ve gone all out in a last stand.
Yet even their killing intent and bloodlust felt weak.
“Unbelievable... Ran into a batch of Evil Cultivator rookies!” Chu Huaixu concluded internally.
Liu Tianfeng and Mo Qingmei observed him a bit longer, then resumed focusing on the battle.
They both felt it might be worth reporting back—this kid seemed born to kill.
If this was all just to cultivate his killing instinct, it might be unnecessary.
Mo Qingmei even noticed a dying Evil Cultivator still twitching in his final moments—Chu Huaixu immediately followed up with another True Gang strike, blasting the man apart...
As for those pretending to be dead? They didn’t escape his notice either—clean decapitations followed.
“No joke! Not finishing the kill properly isn’t acceptable!”
“Also, can’t leave them with even one breath—what if a teammate steals the kill and cuts into my Experience Points?”
“If the EXP doesn’t register, that means they’re not completely dead!”
“Even if your acting’s Oscar-worthy, it won’t work!”
Just then, Chu Huaixu glanced sideways toward Han Shuangjiang.
She had already activated her 【Reincarnation Sword Intent】 and entered the Heaven-Man State.
That white-haired Ice Block kept swinging her sword without pause.
In the Heaven-Man State, she saw all things as grass dogs, so there was no room for mercy or hesitation in her killing.
Within this Evil Cultivator “hideout,” the strongest among them was a man with a scar across his face—his cultivation at the early stage of the Third Realm.
He was currently fighting Mo Qingmei.
Liu Tianfeng took on a supporting role, acting like a nanny, keeping an eye on the disciples training around them to ensure nothing went wrong.
But what was strange was that although this Evil Cultivator was obviously weaker than Mo Qingmei, he kept coming up with little tricks and hadn’t taken a hit.
Moreover, Chu Huaixu noticed the man glancing around, as if looking for something.
Outside Chixi Ravine, Sword Sect disciple Zhao Qianfeng, stationed there, suddenly received a voice transmission.
“Which of them has a Top-grade Spirit Embryo!” the speaker demanded. “If there’s not even one—you know the consequences!”
Zhao Qianfeng trembled ever so slightly.
Then, a flicker of inner conflict flashed in his eyes.
But soon, that hesitation turned into ruthless resolve!
He was only at the Second Realm and couldn’t use voice transmission techniques, so he had to come up with a random excuse to speak aloud to the nearby Dao Gate disciples.
“Junior Brothers, that Xuanhuang Champion Chu Huaixu—he’s even more handsome than in the portraits.”
“That black-gold robe on him—tsk, tsk.”
Taking this opportunity, he revealed two of Chu Huaixu’s most distinctive traits for the person listening in.
In Zhao Qianfeng’s view, the renowned Xuanhuang Champion had to be at least a Top-grade Spirit Embryo.
Maybe... he was even a Supreme-grade Spirit Embryo!
