Standing in the middle of this group of Nascent Soul stage cultivators was Ye Yanjin's master, who had previously transformed into that giant hand to try and kill Bai Ying.
Bai Ying killed his most prized disciple, and he hated Bai Ying to the core.
If he hadn't been bound by the rules and laws of the Centennial Gathering of Talents, he would have killed her back then.
At this moment, his eyes were filled with surging murderous intent, like a wolf staring intently at its prey, fixed on Bai Ying.
In his heart, Bai Ying no longer seemed to be a vibrant life, but merely a cold, waiting-to-be-harvested shell. The aura around him became chaotic and violent due to the intense killing intent, as if it would unleash a bloodbath at any moment, erasing Bai Ying from this world completely.
Meanwhile, the other Nascent Soul stage cultivators around them all focused their attention on the spiritual herb in Bai Ying's hand.
The spiritual herb shimmered with a soft light, and its rich spiritual energy, like a tangible mist, swirled and coiled around it. Even from a great distance, everyone could clearly sense the surging, almost bursting spiritual energy.
Upon seeing this spiritual herb, the faces of these Nascent Soul stage cultivators involuntarily revealed undisguised greed.
They had been immersed in the path of cultivation for many years, but they had never seen such a spiritual herb, overflowing with spiritual energy and seemingly containing endless creation.
Just by looking at it from afar, one can sense the powerful and pure restorative energy contained within this spiritual herb. It seems that as long as one takes it into one's arms, any damaged meridians, depleted dantian, or damaged spiritual root can be restored to their original state in an instant, regaining their vitality.
Such divine objects are undoubtedly rare treasures with a fatal allure for cultivators who often encounter bottlenecks and injuries in their cultivation. How could they not be tempted and covet them?
"Youngster, quickly hand over the spirit herb in your hand. I might still leave you with a complete corpse; otherwise, I'll turn you into pieces so that not even your body can be found!"
One of the Nascent Soul stage cultivators couldn't help but speak up.
If Bai Ying were currently strong and healthy, and not troubled by the inner demon curse, he might reassess her value. Perhaps he wouldn't be so ruthless as to kill her, and might even do Bai Ying a favor.
Unfortunately, Bai Ying can only live for a month at most now.
At this point, she had completely lost any value worth trying to win over. Giving her these treasures would be a waste.
Another Nascent Soul stage cultivator also came over.
"You must have obtained some other good things in that Enlightenment Pool. Otherwise, why would you come out so early? If you know what's good for you, hand them over now to avoid suffering!"
Bai Ying looked at the people in front of her. They all looked arrogant and aloof, like otherworldly masters, but they were like a pack of hungry wolves staring at her. They were so hypocritical that it was disgusting.
Before Bai Ying could speak, Murong Jin and Wang Qi had already flown over on their swords and stood beside her.
"Bai Ying," Murong Jin secretly transmitted to Bai Ying, "I recently obtained a treasure that allows me to travel a thousand miles a day. Let's leave here now!"
Before Murong Jin could even activate his magical artifact, Ye Yanjin's master sneered, "Do you think you can escape? Don't you even know our cultivation levels? Your little tricks are no match for us!"
Murong Jin's expression changed instantly, and he looked as if he were facing a formidable enemy. He quickly drew his sword and stood between himself and Bai Ying.
Bai Ying remained calm. She glanced at the spiritual herb in her hand, knowing that those who coveted it were doomed.
"Senior brother, don't worry. They'll be the ones who die."
Bai Ying's words made the Nascent Soul stage cultivators present burst into laughter. Even the onlookers thought Bai Ying had gone mad!
"This Bai Ying is truly arrogant. Doesn't she realize who she's facing? These aren't the cultivators she encountered at the Centennial Gathering of Talented Individuals. They're all at the Nascent Soul stage!"
"There are only a handful of Nascent Soul stage cultivators in the entire Northern Abyss Prefecture, and most of them are gathered here now. Bai Ying is already doomed. Yet she's still spouting such nonsense. It's a pity that no matter how stubborn she is, she can't overcome the opponent's strength!"
One of the Nascent Soul stage cultivators was already amused by Bai Ying.
He looked at the person in front of him with disdain and said:
"How laughable. Who do you think you are? You're nothing but a lowly Nascent Soul cultivator, yet you dare to try and kill us?"
"Stop wasting time talking to her, just make your move and kill her!"
The moment the words fell, the Nascent Soul cultivator's expression suddenly hardened, and his aura surged wildly, like a surging tide spreading outwards from him.
He gathered all his spiritual power into his palm without reservation. The light from his palm grew ever brighter, initially a faint halo, gradually becoming dazzling and radiant, like a small, blazing sun slowly taking shape. The surrounding space rippled with the powerful spiritual energy, seemingly on the verge of shattering under its immense force. A chilling pressure spread out, enveloping the entire area and filling everyone with dread.
Just by feeling the oppressive aura emanating from him, the lively cultivators present could no longer stand steadily.
The strength of a Nascent Soul cultivator is far beyond that of a Spirit Transformation cultivator. He could crush a Spirit Transformation cultivator with just a little finger, let alone the sheer amount of spiritual power he has gathered in his palm.
Bai Ying is definitely going to die this time!
Everyone present stared intently at the Nascent Soul stage cultivator, waiting for him to launch an attack.
Some people felt it was a pity that Bai Ying, who had finally won first place in the Centennial Elite Gathering, was going to die here.
Only the Lu family members had a hint of worry in their eyes.
Lu Tianya suddenly shouted loudly at the Nascent Soul stage cultivator:
“Senior, Bai Ying’s methods are extremely strange. She once killed two Nascent Soul stage cultivators from my Lu family. We have studied her methods, and it seems that she hit my two ancestors with something transparent, which caused their deaths!”
Lu Tianya spoke with such conviction that he wished he could personally tear Bai Ying to pieces.
Upon hearing this, the Nascent Soul cultivator immediately created a barrier to surround himself and all the other Nascent Soul cultivators.
"You beast, now you've run out of tricks, haven't you! Just wait to die!"
