Everyone was stunned; when had they ever seen such a scene before!

After all, these people are not some unknown nobody.

Any one of them could be a Nascent Soul stage expert who would be famous throughout the entire Northern Abyss!

But even such a powerful figure was easily killed by the spiritual herb in Bai Ying's hand, as if cutting melons and vegetables!

This is completely beyond everyone's comprehension!

"What kind of monster is this spirit herb? How can it be so powerful? It actually killed so many Nascent Soul stage experts!"

"My God! Am I dreaming? Why would such a terrifying thing exist in this world? Where did it come from?"

Those watching the spectacle below were as if struck by an invisible lightning bolt, collectively plunged into extreme shock.

Their eyes widened instantly, staring intently at the scene unfolding before them, their gazes filled with disbelief, as if their thoughts had frozen, unable to comprehend how such a sight could be so unimaginable.

A deathly silence fell over the crowd, broken only by the heavy breathing of those in shock. Everyone was immersed in the sudden vortex of shock, unable to extricate themselves.

"What kind of realm is it? Could it be the legendary Void Refinement stage?"

These people had never seen a Void Refinement stage cultivator before, and upon suddenly seeing such a powerful figure, they were all completely stunned. They could only sense that it was definitely a Void Refinement stage cultivator.

Because only those at the Void Refinement stage can kill such powerful Nascent Soul stage cultivators.

Lingcao found their words laughable. How dare they, mere cultivators at the Void Refinement stage, compare themselves to her?

Meanwhile, the people from Huayang Sect had already concealed themselves instantly, preparing to leave immediately.

Qin Hua Zhenren's face turned ashen; he never expected that Bai Ying would have such a spiritual herb by her side. Ruan Xinrou's expression was even more unsightly.

What exactly is that spirit herb? And why is it walking with Bai Ying?

She thought she'd finally get to witness Bai Ying's death! That bastard!

But it didn't matter, she tried hard to comfort herself. No matter how powerful these magical herbs were, Bai Ying would still die.

If I wait another month, she will surely die.

—

Lingcao said smugly to Baiying, "Let's go!"

It can only move freely if Bai Ying completely escorts it out of the Enlightenment Pool's territory.

Bai Ying quickly picked it up and walked forward step by step.

Just as she was about to leave the area, Bai Ying suddenly heard an extremely terrifying sound.

"You killed members of my Xuan Yang Sect and you still think you can leave!"

The voice, like a sharp ice blade, pierced straight into the eardrums of everyone present, carrying endless resentment and murderous intent, causing their blood to freeze instantly and every hair on their heads to stand on end.

The people present had never felt such a terrifying atmosphere before.

In an instant, as if a wave of panic swept over them, many people's legs went weak and they involuntarily knelt down.

"It's the Void Refinement stage! This is the Void Refinement stage! How terrifying!"

Exclamations rose and fell, the voices filled with awe and fear.

The cultivator at the Void Refinement stage unleashed his full power without reservation, like a surging torrent.

Everyone felt an invisible, immense force pressing down on their shoulders, as if their spines were about to break, their bodies trembling uncontrollably, and their souls seemingly shrinking under this powerful force.

Some of the weaker cultivators had already turned ashen-faced, with large beads of sweat rolling down their foreheads. Their eyes were filled with despair and helplessness. Under this overwhelming pressure, they didn't even dare to have the thought of resisting and could only humbly prostrate themselves on the ground.

"Could this cultivator at the Void Refinement stage be that elder of the Xuan Yang Sect?"

"I've heard that the Xuan Yang Sect has an elder at the late stage of the Void Refinement realm. If he were to make a move, he could kill all the cultivators in the entire Northern Abyss Prefecture! It is precisely because of him that the Xuan Yang Sect has become the number one sect in the Northern Abyss Prefecture. No one dares to provoke them."

Bai Ying has now killed Ye Yanjin, the most outstanding young talent in Beiyuan Prefecture, and her spiritual herb has killed the leader of the Xuan Yang Sect. Now that they've lured this old monster out, he's definitely doomed!

These people looked at the old monster, then at Bai Ying, and felt that Bai Ying and her spiritual herb were likely doomed.

Although that spiritual herb is also very powerful, and is very likely at the Void Refinement stage, no matter how powerful it is, it can't possibly be a match for an old monster at the late Void Refinement stage, right?

It is said that after reaching the Void Refinement stage, one will find it extremely difficult to progress in cultivation, and it may take tens of thousands of years just to go from the early to the middle stage.

During this period, the world changes dramatically, with rises and falls occurring in turn. Cultivators must undergo countless life-or-death trials, struggling to survive in dire straits; they must endure the tempering of their minds and overcome layer upon layer of trials and tribulations before they may find a glimmer of hope for a breakthrough on the vast path of cultivation.

It's already rare for a cultivator to reach the late stage of the Void Refinement Realm in this world, so how could there be so many?

Sensing the terrifying aura emanating from this Xuan Yang Sect elder, they were convinced that he was more powerful than the spiritual herb.

The elder of the Xuan Yang Sect walked arrogantly to Bai Ying and the immortal herb. He looked at the person and the herb before him as if they were two inanimate objects.

He pointed to the spirit herb in Bai Ying's hand and said, "Give it to me. And you..."

He looked coldly at Bai Ying, then glanced at the toad-like spirit beast behind him and said, "Don't you like seventeen or eighteen-year-old girls the most? Now I'll give her to you as a furnace."

The giant toad instantly became extremely excited and immediately stuck out its tongue to lick Bai Ying.

As the pet of a cultivator in the Void Refinement stage, its cultivation level had already reached the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage. It was more than capable of dealing with Bai Ying.

"Hehe, little girl, come back with me obediently! If you behave, I might not kill you so quickly."

Its tongue licked Bai Ying's cheek, its face full of excitement.

Those watching the scene unfold felt sorry for Bai Ying.

They'd heard of this toad; it was utterly wicked, and it had a particular fondness for young girls like Bai Ying, toying with them for a long time before slowly killing them. It was incredibly cruel.

Now that Bai Ying has fallen into its hands, she is likely in grave danger.

It's bad enough to die, but to die in such a tragic way is unacceptable.
