Chapter 1142: Chapter 1136: The Li Clan’s Ancestor Is Dead For Sure

“Hahaha, it’s useless! The Li Clan’s old ancestor is dead for sure. Once he falls, not a single one of you will escape the Northern Frontier!”

Within the Void Refining space, the rhythmic thump, thump of a beating heart echoed steadily.

A crimson pool covered the ground, its surface blanketed with drifting, vibrant Red Spider Lilies.

Phantoms materialized in every direction across the spatial domain, manifesting the myriad martial arts of the world.

Seven hideous, terrifying monsters trampled heavily through the bloody waters.

A continuous chorus of soft splashes rang out as ice flowers rained into the pool, instantly freezing everything they touched.

Countless shadowy figures stood motionless upon the freshly formed ice.

Above it all, Qiu Xunfa laughed wildly against the cloudy sky.

He was truly a disappointment; even in such a great Void Refining battle, he still resorted to such petty tricks to shake his opponents’ Dao Hearts.

“The world fears the Li Clan. Aside from your experts in the Western Frontier, they fear your unfathomable old ancestor. But once he dies, it’s all over!”

The Li Clan members simply furrowed their brows, silently continuing to execute their techniques.

If Li Wei could see this scene, he would undoubtedly be envious.

In his own fight against Qiu Chuhui, he had not only been hard-countered but mercilessly ganged up on.

Just look at the lineup here: the Seven Ironclads, Li Zhiheng, Fairy Hongxiu, and the Martial Emperor—ten experts fighting in unison against the Qiu Clan’s Qiu Naihe and Qiu Xunfa.

In stark contrast to Qiu Xunfa’s rampant arrogance, Qiu Naihe quietly manipulated the falling ice flowers.

Wherever these icy blooms drifted, the living were strictly forbidden from approaching, repelled by a bizarre and potent aura of death.

His gaze shifted toward Fairy Hongxiu.

This early-stage Void Refining cultivator was undoubtedly the Palace Master of the Southern Frontier’s Red Spider Lily Immortal Palace.

Her sea of Red Spider Lilies, though seemingly vibrant and beautiful, harbored a deeply hidden killing intent; it was truly a top-tier slaughtering art.

Trapped within the Red Spider Lily’s Void Refining space, an opponent’s physical body and Spirit Soul would both gradually wither away.

Then there was the Martial Emperor.

The title “Martial Emperor,” however, was nothing more than a facade.

Every martial arts phantom manifested within this Void Refining space represented a distinct type of “Dharma.”

Having elevated martial arts into pure Dharma, anyone who merely touched his domain would be relentlessly bombarded by these phantoms.

The very rules of heaven and earth were nurtured within these martial forms.

Rather than the Martial Emperor, it would be far more fitting to call him the Dharma Emperor.

Moreover, this man was an ancient monster who stood at the absolute peak of the Void Refining realm.

Qiu Naihe spoke in a deep, measured voice: “Fairy, and you, my Daoist friend. The junior of my clan speaks recklessly, but he is not wrong.

My Qiu Clan has long been prepared to deal with the Li Clan this time.

You two must surely know of the Northern Frontier’s Granny Guo.”

“Granny Guo?”

The Martial Emperor’s expression immediately tightened.

Being advanced in years, he had long heard rumors that here in the Northern Frontier lived a foul-smelling old hag whom absolutely no one was willing to fight.

During her early years, everyone who had dared to cross her had perished.

Later, her bizarre ability to deprive others of their Spiritual power was only made public to the world after an Exalted Demon of the Demon Race narrowly managed to escape her clutches.

Observing the little old man’s changing expression, Qiu Naihe pressed on.

“What can the Li Clan possibly give you? Once their old ancestor dies, you will never leave the Northern Frontier alive. Why risk your lives for a sinking ship?”

The Martial Emperor’s frown deepened.

Fairy Hongxiu, however, remained entirely silent.

She had cultivated her entire life within the Red Spider Lily Immortal Palace to become its Palace Master. Yet, she had never taken pride in that achievement; to her, it was merely a heavy burden.

Back when Third Prince Qian had stripped away nearly all her power, the Li Clan had arrived.

Li Yunlin’s figure, descending from the sky bathed in lightning, had looked like a true immortal guiding her out of a boundless sea of suffering.

The Red Spider Lily Immortal Palace boasted its famous sea of Red Spider Lilies.

Countless cultivators spent their entire lives unable to reach the “other shore,” doomed only to gaze helplessly at the crimson flowers drifting atop that sea.

But Li Yunlin had simply walked over, plucked a Red Spider Lily from the far side of that endless sea, and pinned it into her hair right there in the Heavenly Departure Hall.

To her, it was the most beautiful adornment in all the mortal realm.

Then, taking her by the hand, he had led her safely to the very end of the floral sea.

Upon reaching that distant shore, her breakthrough to the Void Refining realm had occurred as naturally as breathing.

Unfortunately, even after several centuries together, the two of them had still been unable to bear a child.

Before her Dao Companion had left for the Western Frontier, he simply asked her to take good care of the children back home.

Only then did Fairy Hongxiu truly realize that the end of the sea of Red Spider Lilies was simply the mortal realm.

And having arrived in the mortal realm, one had to shoulder mortal responsibilities.

Whether it was the Qiu Clan or the Dynasty trying to carve benefits from their family’s flesh, if the old ancestor really did die, she still had to carry the torch.

Failing to hold the line and defend their gates would be her own personal failure.

Fairy Hongxiu cast a sideways glance at the Martial Emperor.

Her red sleeves fluttered gently in the wind. Dressed entirely in vivid crimson, she truly looked like a fairy descending from the heavens.

“Old man, think your next steps through very carefully.”

A sharp trace of vigilance laced her words.

She had seen more than enough fence-sitters in the Azure Cloud Prefecture.

Ultimately, Fairy Hongxiu wasn’t particularly well-versed in the complex ways of the world.

No matter who the enemy was, if they couldn’t win the fight, she would simply do as the clan’s children did: fight to the death, pass on to the old ancestor’s world, and patiently wait there to reunite with Yunlin.

“I…”

The little old man’s gaze darted around, shifting with blatant uncertainty.

Finally, gritting his teeth, he bellowed, “Motherfucker! Just how many Spirit Stones is the Li Clan even paying me for this?”

With that furious shout, his martial arts phantoms surged into motion as his Spiritual power erupted in full force.

In a flash, he appeared directly alongside Qiu Xunfa and Qiu Naihe. He turned his back on the Li Clan members, his expression twisting into an unsightly scowl.
