My Disciples Are All Villains Chapter 1647 - The Heavenly Void

Chapter 1647: The Heavenly Void

Qi Sheng could sense the strange movements between the mountains, but he did not know what kind of trap it was. He did not like taking risks so the best way was to take a detour.
Qi Sheng led the Silver Guards 100 miles away to avoid the trap.
The sky was clear.
Although they were quite far away, they could still see the towering mountains that pierced through the clouds.
“Hm?” Qi Sheng came to a stop.
One of the Silver Guards asked curiously, “Commander, did you discover something?”
“Formation.” Qi Sheng frowned. The formation between the mountains seemed to be gradually disappearing, but it just coincidentally happened as soon as they left.
“Let’s go.”
Swoosh!
Qi Sheng took the lead and flew up.
The Silver Guards could sense something was amiss as well and quickly followed Qi Sheng.
After flying for about 600 miles, Qi Sheng slowed down.
“Commander, it should be safe now.”
The Silver Guards split in four directions and protected Qi Sheng in the middle.
Qi Sheng nodded and said, “If I’m not mistaken, that was a God Slaying Grand Formation.”
The Silver Guards looked surprised.
“There’s nothing special about those mountains. Why is there such an evil formation there?”
“Someone deliberately set up the formation there for us,” Qi Sheng said.
“How’s that possible?”
“Not only do they know our route, but they’re also familiar with my style of doing things,” Qi Sheng said.
Qi Sheng did not like to use common runic passages. He did not trust the runic passages, and he also did not want to expose his whereabouts. The other party had laid the formation between the mountains; it was clear that they knew he was going to pass through this place.
Qi Sheng suddenly asked, “How long before we arrive?”
A Silver Guard on the left bowed and replied, “We’ll reach Tranquil Pond in an hour. The nearest secret runic passage is there.”
As soon as the guard finished speaking, Qi Sheng asked in a low voice, “How do you know I’m going to Tranquil Pond?”
The Silver Guard suddenly raised his head.
The other three Silver Guard instantly knew something was wrong. They flew over and surrounded him, aiming their spears at him.
Qi Sheng had a habit. Whenever he traveled, he would be the only one who knew the route and destination. Occasionally, he would mark his destinations on the map and leave it lying on the table.
“Weren’t we flying in the direction of Tranquil Pond?”
The Silver Guard on the right scoffed. “That was earlier, not now. Traitor!”
Qi Sheng flashed and arrived in front of the person. Then, he said with a faint smile, “Everyone, retreat.”
The other Silver Guards retreated.
Qi Sheng looked at the suspicious Silver Guard and asked, “Speak. Who are you working for?”
“I’ve been wrongly accused!” the suspicious Silver Guard protested.
Qi Sheng shook his head and pushed his hand out. His hand glowed with a golden light as he easily grabbed the suspicious Silver Guard’s neck and said, “Tell me.”
“C-commander, you, you’re wise. The enemy is trying to sow discord! I, I’m innocent!”
“I’ve already given you a chance,” Qi Sheng said as he tightened his grip.
The suspicious Silver Guard’s face turned red, his eyes bulged, and his body trembled.
At this time, Qi Sheng said in a low voice, “I deliberately marked Tranquil Pond on the map and left it behind.”
“Arghhh!”
Crack!
After snapping the traitor’s neck, Qi Sheng withdrew his hand. When the traitor’s lotus was forced out, he raised his sword and brought it down on the lotus, destroying it.
Boom!
The strike was fast and accurate.
After the lotus was destroyed, the traitor’s corpse plummeted from the sky.
Qi Sheng looked at the falling corpse and muttered, “I wanted to draw you out and get rid of you.”
The other Silver Guards watched silently.
After that, Qi Sheng was not in a hurry to leave. He waited in the air for a while.
In less than 15 minutes, a voice filled with praise rang from the horizon.
“I really admire you!”
The Silver Guards automatically moved to stand in front of Qi Sheng.
Qi Sheng smiled and looked at the northern horizon. “Come out.”
More than 1,000 cultivators appeared in the horizon. They were like a plague of locusts as they flew closer and closer. In just a short while, they were about 300 feet away from Qi Sheng.
The leader of the cultivators was tall and muscular. His face was dark, and his eyes were piercing. He said in a deep voice, “You won’t be able to escape.”
“Yan Feng Hall’s Dao Saint Ban Jie. What can I do for you?” Qi Sheng asked politely.
Ban Jie frowned slightly. A hint of surprise could be seen in his eyes as he asked, “You know me?”
“Who doesn’t know Dao Saint Ban?” Qi Sheng asked in return. Since he arrived at the Great Void, he had committed the names and portraits of the people in the Great Void to his memory. Only he himself knew this.
Ban Jie said, “I really underestimated you… No, actually, I’ll take that back.”
“What do you mean?” Qi Sheng was still polite.
“You’re too arrogant. Your cleverness is your downfall,” Ban Jie said, “There’s no God Slaying Grand Formation at the Little Peak Mountain; it’s just a smokescreen. The real trap lies here. It seems like you’re not that smart, after all.”
The three Silver Guards took a step back, feeling slightly nervous.
On the contrary, Qi Sheng nodded calmly.
Ban Jie continued to say as he laughed, “Apart from that, you killed… the wrong person!”
Qi Sheng still remained calm.
Seeing that Qi Sheng was silent, Ban Jie said, “Ever since the Great Void ascended to the sky, there has been no lack of clowns who wanted to join the ten halls. You’ve already become the Commander of Tu Wei Hall; why must you be so greedy as to extend your hand toward Yan Feng Hall?”
“To change heaven and earth,” Qi Sheng replied. Then, he smiled before he continued to say, “A change might be good.”
Ban Jie said, “Alas, you won’t be able to see or make a change. Emperor Tu Wei is gone. Who do you think you are? How dare you try to change heaven and earth? This is where you’ll die.”
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Thousands of cultivators quickly surrounded Qi Sheng.
Ban Jie looked at Qi Sheng and the three Silver Guards and asked, “Do you have any final words?”
Qi Sheng took his cloak off and tossed it to the left.
Two Silver Guards caught it before they all retreated.
Qi Sheng raised his head. His mask began to glow with a faint red light. His eyes held a hint of a smile as he asked, “How do you know I’m not the one who laid the trap here today?”
“Huh?” Ban Jie frowned.
“Second, whether I killed the wrong person or not, you should go down and have a look before you make a judgment,” Qi Sheng continued to say.
Ban Jie bellowed, “Cut the crap! You’ll die today! Take him down!”
Black, golden, and red avatars appeared in the sky one after another, reflecting off each other.
The space rippled as countless energy seals flew toward Qi Sheng.
Following that, the red mask on Qi Sheng’s face flashed before a barrier enveloped him.
Swoosh!
Flames suddenly burned around Qi Sheng. They seemed to make him incorporeal as the attacks passed through him harmlessly.
Ban Jie’s frown deepened. “What secret technique is this?”
Swoosh!
Qi Sheng flew into the sky. He raised his right hand, and a ray of dazzling golden light appeared. It was a cylindrical object made of pure gold.
“What’s that?!” Ban Jie exclaimed.
Flames soared into the sky.
The cultivators retreated warily.
“Be careful of the true fire.”
Ban Jie stared at the object in Qi Sheng’s hand.
The object gradually shrank until it resembled a long and thin golden needle.
“This thing is called the Heavenly Void.”
“The Heavenly Void?”
Without saying anything else, Qi Sheng threw the Heavenly Void out.
As the Heavenly Void sailed in the sky, it shone dazzlingly like the sun. It stabbed the cultivators mercilessly at a terrifying speed.
When they tried to dodge, they discovered the Heavenly Void would appear and reappear again in another place, making it impossible to dodge. It could even bypass their energy shields.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
One by one, the cultivators’ chests and hearts were pierced.
Initially, Ban Jie was only surprised. However, as he watched the Heavenly Void ruthlessly and accurately piercing the cultivators’ hearts and divine soul pearls, fear began to flood his heart.
The smell of death and blood permeated the air.
None of the cultivators could resist it. They plummeted from the sky one after another.
The cultivators who quickly turned their divine soul pearls into Birth Charts could not escape as well. They were pierced repeatedly until they resembled a hornet’s nest.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Ban Jie was frozen in fear. His mind turned blank. He watched as the Heavenly Void flew back and forth swiftly. To be precise, he could only see traces of the Heavenly Void as it flew and pierced his men’s hearts. The needle was like a hot knife, and his men were like butter.
Ban Jie stared at Qi Sheng with his mouth agape.
Qi Sheng’s body was bathed in flames. His eyes were terrifying to look at, and an icy smile could be seen on his face. The mask on his face glowed red, making him look even more terrifying.
“Y-you, you, you’re a supreme being!” Ban Jie exclaimed in shock and disbelief.
Qi Sheng smiled faintly. “It’s not too late to know this now. Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of you.”
Swoosh!
The Heavenly Void quickly pierced Ban Jie’s chest, entering from the back and exiting from the front, leaving only a tiny red dot behind.
Ban Jie watched helplessly as the Heavenly Void turned around and pierced his body again.
“…”
Ban Jie tried to struggle, but it was futile. He sensed Qi Sheng’s formidable aura and recalled Qi Sheng’s earlier words. ‘How do you know I’m not the one who laid the trap here?’
At this moment, realization dawned on Ban Jie. Alas, it was too late.
…
In the Sacred Temple.
Hua Zhenghong walked in from outside and said with a bow, “Temple Master, the Great Abyss Land sent a letter.”
“What is it about?”
“Emperor Yu said to be careful of the people around you,” Hua Zhenghong replied.
“The people around me?” Ming Xin raised an eyebrow.
Hua Zhenghong kneeled on one knee and said, “I’m loyal to Your Majesty. The sun and moon can be my witness!”
Following that, three voices rang from outside, professing their loyalty.
Ming Xin’s expression remained the same as he said, “Hand it over.”
Hua Zhenghong respectfully handed the letter over.
Ming Xin opened the letter. There was only one sentence: Be careful of those around you.
Ming Xin stared at the sentence for a long time before he finally crushed the paper, reducing it to dust.
“Tell Emperor Yu that I know,” Ming Xin said calmly.
“Understood,” Hua Zhenghong said before she left.
…
At the same time.
Xuanyi Palace.
In a Dao hall.
Lu Zhou levitated in the air. His body was completely shrouded by the divine power.
At the same time, part of the divine power would dissolve into spots of starlight before they entered his body, forming a new power that coursed through his Eight Extraordinary Meridians.
When the power calmed down, Lu Zhou finally opened his eyes. He instinctively looked at the system interface. His lifespan had been reduced by 100,000 years.
“The blue avatar really didn’t increase my lifespan even though I previously activated five Birth Charts at once. Now, I even lost 100,000 years…”
Fortunately, Lu Zhou had 250,000 years, which was more than enough. Moreover, he still had many Reversal Cards.
“It’s time to return to Grand Mystic Mountain to have a look,” Lu Zhou muttered to himself.
At this moment…
“Pavilion Master Lu, can I come in for a chat?”
“Come in,” Lu Zhou replied.
Those outside the hall had already gotten used to Xuanyi, a Great Divine King and the Hall Master of Xuanyi Place, asking for permission to speak to Lu Zhou.
When Xuanyi entered the hall, he said without beating around the bush, “This is bad. The second Pillar of Destruction has collapsed!”
