Lele also supported killing all the evil cultivators: "Xinxin, let's go kill them. We should wipe out all the evil cultivators and those who aren't actually evil cultivators."
Zhong Lingxin chuckled: "It's not that easy to wipe them out. Let's not even talk about the evil cultivators. Just take Lingyun Sect for example. There are millions of disciples in the sect, plus the servants, so there are at least tens of millions of people."
Among the disciples of the sect, the vast majority are at the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages, estimated to number in the millions.
The combined number of Nascent Soul, Golden Core, and Foundation Establishment cultivators sent to the ancient battlefield was only a little over two thousand. Even if they were all killed, it wouldn't have a significant impact on the Lingyun Sect.
Huanhuan was a little discouraged. It turned out that all their efforts had had no impact on Lingyun Sect.
Zhong Lingxin quickly reassured her friends: "There will definitely be an impact. Those who can be sent to the ancient battlefield are all elite disciples of their sects. If we kill a few, their sects will have fewer elite disciples."
Zhong Chun hurriedly chimed in, "Xin Xin is right. No matter how many disciples a sect has, there are only a few elite disciples. If we kill their elite disciples, it will have a much greater impact on them."
Hearing this, the group of friends were emboldened again and resolved to go and kill their elite disciples.
Zhong Lingxin smiled faintly, not wanting to dampen her friends' enthusiasm.
Even if a large sect with a million members and over two thousand Golden Core and Foundation Establishment cultivators were all elites, they couldn't damage the sect's foundation.
so what.
She'll kill as many as she can whenever she encounters them.
Moreover, when she went to Lingyun Peak, she personally heard the hatred of Lingyun Sect disciples towards Qingyun Sect disciples.
If we don't kill them, are we supposed to wash our necks and wait for them to turn around and kill the Qingyun Sect disciples?
Zhong Lingxin sent a message to Liu Qiang, inquiring about their situation.
The answer was that everything was fine; without the disturbances from the evil cultivators and Lingyun Sect disciples, they were mining extremely quickly. They also suddenly added to Zhong Lingxin's message: "Be careful when patrolling outside."
They didn't ask about Zhong Lingxin's situation at all.
Zhong Lingxin chuckled.
Senior Brother Liu is truly a remarkable person; he has ideas in his mind, but he never says them aloud.
Not only did they not say anything, they also tried their best to cooperate.
Since that's the case, she might as well go and take a stroll around the Blood Shadow Sect's mine.
It can't be that they're shouting threats and killings at the Qingyun Sect, and the Qingyun Sect doesn't retaliate at all.
It's only polite to reciprocate.
Liu Qiang put away the communication talisman in his hand and smiled slightly. If he still didn't understand what Junior Sister Zhong was doing outside, then he would have been an elite disciple for nothing.
He had no other thoughts than wishing that Junior Sister Zhong would kill more Lingyun Sect and evil cultivators; he would just do his job of covering for her.
From then on, Zhong Lingxin and Liu Qiang developed a tacit understanding and cooperation.
Liu Qiang has consistently claimed that Zhong Lingxin and several disciples have been patrolling the area to ensure the safety of the disciples while they are mining.
Zhong Lingxin, without any worries, ran wildly towards the spiritual vein discovered by the Blood Shadow Sect.
In the spiritual vein discovered by the Blood Shadow Sect, a group of evil cultivators and several sects have been digging for spirit stones for half a year.
For the past six months, they have worked together in perfect harmony, each digging their own mine without disturbing each other.
They shared a common goal: to excavate as quickly as possible, finish excavating as soon as possible, and then go to the Qingyun Sect's mine to get a share of the profits.
If we divide it well, we might even be able to trap and kill several smaller sects, such as the Qingyun Sect, in the mine, and seize the spirit stones they've mined.
I must say, this is a great idea.
But it is destined not to happen.
Because Zhong Lingxin came.
Zhong Lingxin first sneaked into the Lingyun Sect's mine, and with a trapping illusion array, killed them all.
Next up are the Beast Taming Sect, the Void Sect, the Blood Shadow Sect, the Dark Cloud Sect, and the Fierce Soul Sect.
Zhong Lingxin didn't kill any of the disciples from those minor sects.
These people didn't provoke her Qingyun Sect, so she wouldn't kill them.
Perhaps it was because three batches of cultivators from the Immortal Spirit Continent had arrived in succession, or perhaps it was because too many remnant souls had been killed, or perhaps it was because too much of the evil energy from the ancient battlefield had been burned or blown up, or perhaps it was because one spiritual vein after another had been mined.
After Zhong Lingxin mined the spirit crystals from the Blood Shadow Sect's mineral vein, she sensed a trace of spiritual energy in the ancient battlefield, and green grass sprouted from the ground.
This is definitely good news for the ancient battlefield.
This means that the ancient battlefield is no longer a dead zone, but can slowly recover.
This is the result that cultivators on the Immortal Spirit Continent most hope to see.
Zhong Lingxin grabbed a handful of soil, and the evil aura within it was still very strong.
She channeled her fire elemental power and burned it, causing the malevolent energy to slowly dissipate, leaving the soil dry and empty.
From then on, whenever she had enough spiritual energy, she would wave a streak of fire and burn the soil on the ground.
Although it was just a drop in the ocean, she was very happy burning it.
As she traveled further and further away, she arrived at Flying Dragon City.
In Flying Dragon City, there were no more cultivators visiting, nor any trace of the remnant souls; the entire city was deathly silent.
Zhong Lingxin flew around the city, ransacking all the houses that looked like no one had disturbed them, finding a few broken treasures and also uncovering a few remnant souls.
These remnant souls are not highly cultivated.
Zhong Lingxin quickly killed them.
A plaque fell from the body of a remnant soul.
The plaque was made of a material similar to the two large remnant souls she had killed—neither gold nor iron, but of a better quality. It felt warm to the touch and produced a metallic sound when tapped. The front of the plaque bore the character "天" (heaven), while the back featured a giant dragon coiling and flying.
This was the only written information she discovered during her two trips to the ancient battlefield.
Seeing this sign reminded her of the nine Buddhist prayer beads.
Before she came to the ancient battlefield, she made a special trip to see the nine Buddhist beads that her master was repairing.
Eight of them have been almost repaired, except for one that was broken in two and is just starting to come together.
I wonder if she'll be able to repair the prayer beads after she goes back.
The "Tian" character plaque lay quietly in Zhong Lingxin's palm, like a lifeless object, showing no reaction whatsoever.
But Zhong Lingxin felt a sense of sadness. It was as if countless people were fighting before her eyes, and countless children and women were fleeing in grief and anger behind these people, looking back as they fled...
Zhong Lingxin shook her head, shaking off all these figures, and silently put the "Heaven" character token into her storage ring.
After the "Heaven" sign disappeared, Flying Dragon City began to shake.
The tattered dragon above the city gate seemed to have used all its strength to take flight, its head held high defiantly, letting out a loud dragon roar.
The mournful dragon's roar echoed throughout every corner of the ancient battlefield, lingering for a long time.
All the remnant souls floated out and looked in the direction of the dragon's roar.
The cultivators who came to the ancient battlefield for training all looked in the direction of the dragon's roar.
The shaking of Flying Dragon City grew more and more violent, as if a major earthquake had occurred.
Finally, the entire Flying Dragon City collapsed completely, with the city walls and all the houses turning to dust.
