Xuan Xiao's seven orifices bled. He smiled at Ye Ling, who was staring blankly, and then fell straight before Ye Ling.
"This, this..."
Ye Ling stared blankly at Xuan Xiao's corpse, caught off guard by Xuan Xiao's sudden suicide.
He didn't understand what the meaning of Xuan Xiao's actions was.
Why did he commit suicide?
"Master!!!"
At this moment, a piercing shriek entered Ye Ling's ears. Ye Ling looked and saw Tian Ling, her eyes red, rushing towards him at full speed!
"Tian Ling?"
Seeing Tian Ling charging at him, Ye Ling's eyes changed slightly. He didn't know what to do and could only retreat to avoid Tian Ling's attack.
"Give me back my master's life!"
Tian Ling cried out, swinging the small knife in her hand, slashing at Ye Ling. Every strike was deadly!
"Tian Ling, let me explain first..." Ye Ling didn't know how to deal with Tian Ling at this moment. He could only dodge while trying to persuade her.
With Tian Ling's cultivation, let alone Ye Ling fighting back, even if Ye Ling stood still and let Tian Ling strike, she would have been sent flying by Ye Ling's powerful vital energy.
However, Tian Ling was deeply affected by Xuan Xiao's death. She couldn't hear what Ye Ling was saying and continued to attack him.
Even the gods in the sky were stunned, not understanding why things had suddenly developed this way.
Xuan Xiao's suicide had caught everyone by surprise!
"Senior Brother! Why did you kill my master!" Tian Ling cried, stabbing the knife at Ye Ling. Her cry made Ye Ling tremble, freezing him in place.
Clang!!!
Tian Ling, along with her knife, was sent flying by Ye Ling's vital energy. Seeing this, Ye Ling quickly went to embrace Tian Ling, asking worriedly, "Are you alright, Junior Sister?"
"Get away!!!"
Tian Ling broke free from Ye Ling, ran to Xuan Xiao's corpse, and cried out in despair.
To Tian Ling, Xuan Xiao was her only family, equivalent to her father.
Now that she had personally witnessed her beloved senior brother kill her most important master, how could she accept it?
Ye Ling stood aside, watching Tian Ling cry over Xuan Xiao's corpse. His mind was in chaos, and he didn't understand what was happening.
Although he had been mentally prepared to kill Xuan Xiao, he had never expected Xuan Xiao to die so suddenly!
This way, all his doubts could not be resolved.
Tian Ling's desperate tears dripped onto Xuan Xiao's corpse, causing it to emit faint glows.
Suddenly, Xuan Xiao's corpse began to etherealize.
"This... etherealization?"
Seeing the reaction of Xuan Xiao's corpse, Ye Ling's pupils contracted sharply, realizing something was wrong!
Etherealization of a corpse was a phenomenon that only occurred after a divine soul died!
And Ye Ling was certain that Xuan Xiao had not come as a divine soul this time!
"How could this happen?"
Ye Ling was extremely shocked. Before he could understand the situation, Xuan Xiao's corpse lit up with a dazzling radiance, and a blue beam of light shot out from within the corpse, piercing the heavens!
At the same time, in the tomb of the former guardian in the valley, a beam of light also shot out, reaching the sky!
The two beams of light converged, causing a cosmic barrier to appear in the sky above Earth!
A cosmic barrier with a diameter larger than Earth appeared, and people all over the globe could see the shocking sight!
All beings in the Three Realms were in an uproar!
The World-Destroying Spiritual Fire sealed on Ye Ling's wrist saw the two rising beams of light and exclaimed, "Is this the Three Corpses Breaking Obstruction?"
Hearing the World-Destroying Spiritual Fire's exclamation, Ye Ling was startled and quickly asked, "Three Corpses Breaking Obstruction? What is that?"
The World-Destroying Spiritual Fire did not play coy and quickly explained, "This is a supreme divine ability that requires nurturing three divine souls simultaneously, cultivating those divine souls into independent individuals."
"Once all three cultivated divine souls perish, the conditions for initiating the Three Corpses Breaking Obstruction are met. Such a divine ability... can destroy everything in the world, its divine might is unimaginable!"
"Destroy everything in the world?"
Hearing the World-Destroying Spiritual Fire's words, Ye Ling's heart suddenly sank, and he had a bad premonition.
At this moment, far away on the Eastern Xuan Continent, deep within the forbidden grounds of the Demon Palace.
A tombstone inscribed with "Xuan Xiao" also lit up with blue light, and a beam of light shot up into the sky, awakening countless powerful beings on the Eastern Xuan Continent!
That blue beam of light traversed space and time, crossing billions of light-years, and converged with the two beams of light on Earth!
The three beams of light gathered together, impacting the cosmic barrier, causing infinite cracks to appear!
"Not good, the cosmic barrier is about to break!" Ye Ling's expression changed drastically as he saw the cracks in the cosmic barrier. He leaped towards the barrier, wanting to stop it!
The World-Destroying Spiritual Fire shouted, "Kid, are you trying to die! Come back quickly! The Three Corpses Breaking Obstruction is a divine ability that only beings above the Great Dao Immortal Lord can use. Once activated, no one can stop it!"
But by the time the World-Destroying Spiritual Fire roared, Ye Ling had already touched the beam of light and was sent flying like a cannonball, crashing towards the ground!
Boom!
The ground shattered, kicking up dust everywhere!
The gods and Buddhas present were all extremely shocked to see Ye Ling being blown away by the beam of light!
What was that?
They looked at the cracking cosmic barrier in the sky above Earth, and despair involuntarily appeared in their eyes.
They didn't know what it was, but they had a vague premonition that once the cosmic barrier cracked, it would be their countdown to annihilation!
For a moment, all the gods and Buddhas present knelt down, praying in their hearts for Ye Ling to step forward and resolve this crisis.
Now, only Ye Ling could resolve this crisis!
In a massive crater on the ground, dark flames spread out from around Ye Ling and retracted into his wrist.
The World-Destroying Spiritual Fire cursed, "You damn kid, the Three Corpses Breaking Obstruction divine ability is irreversible. Once the formation is complete, the cosmic barrier is definitely doomed. You actually dared to touch it, causing me to expend half of my divine power. I will definitely kill you!"
Ye Ling listened to the World-Destroying Spiritual Fire's clamor, gave a wry smile, and struggled to get up from the ground. He looked at the cosmic barrier in the sky, which was already covered in cracks, his eyes filled with deep worry. "This is bad..."
The cosmic barrier that appeared this time was larger than Earth in diameter. Once this cosmic barrier broke, the invasion of extraterrestrial forces would be unstoppable!
Seeing that Ye Ling was ignoring him, the World-Destroying Spiritual Fire became furious again and cursed, "Kid, I saved your life! Aren't you even going to thank me? You truly are an ungrateful wretch! I will definitely kill you in the future!"
Ye Ling was used to the World-Destroying Spiritual Fire's catchphrases. He sighed slightly and said to the World-Destroying Spiritual Fire, "Thank you for saving me, sir. You are powerful and divine, do you have a way to stop this disaster?"
Suddenly being called "sir," the World-Destroying Spiritual Fire became smug again, and its anger dissipated. It chuckled, "Although you can't solve this matter, it doesn't mean I can't... this Three Corpses Breaking Obstruction divine ability cannot be solved, but there is a chance to repair the cosmic barrier."
Hearing the World-Destroying Spiritual Fire's words, Ye Ling's eyes lit up, and he said with pleasant surprise, "You have a way to repair the cosmic barrier?"
