Upon witnessing this horrifying scene, the silver-robed man finally paled, a flicker of fear crossing his eyes.
He immediately began to circulate the Dao seed within his body.
In the blink of an eye, a cold, silver light shot up from his chest, its brilliance so dazzling it hurt the eyes. Accompanying this blinding light, a strange silver crystal slowly emerged.
The crystal was about the size of a fist, with a layer of cold silver light flowing across its surface, like a cold star, radiating an aura that caused the surrounding space to fluctuate.
Upon closer inspection, the silver light on the crystal surface is not static, but rather moves slowly in a mysterious trajectory, like mercury.
Each flow increased the silver-robed man's aura by one point, and in just a moment, the aura he exuded reached the critical point of the Divine Travel Realm.
However, the moment the silver crystal appeared, Qin Luo's figure appeared in front of the silver-robed man like a ghost.
Before the silver-robed man could react, Qin Luo extended his right hand, and like an eagle's claw, precisely grasped the silver crystal. A sharp, cold force emanated from Qin Luo's hand, ruthlessly cutting into his skin.
However, this cutting force had no effect on Qin Luo's current physical body. He didn't loosen his grip at all, stubbornly withstanding the sharp, cold force.
All that could be heard from my hands was a piercing cutting sound, like metal scraping against a hard rock, sharp and unusual.
"You...you dare! How is this possible?!"
The silver-robed man initially looked at Qin Luo with disdain. He never expected that this person would be so bold as to directly reach out and grasp his Dao Seed.
But the next moment, the disdain in his eyes turned into intense fear. The thought that his chance to achieve enlightenment was being controlled by someone else brought back his rationality in that instant.
His hands melted away rapidly in a bizarre way, turning into two pools of mercury liquid that shimmered with a cold, eerie light, and stabbed fiercely at Qin Luo.
"It seems this thing is quite important to you?"
As the two pools of mercury-like liquid, shimmering with a cold, eerie light, hurtled towards him like lightning, Qin Luo spoke indifferently.
The mercury liquid, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound, pierced his hand fiercely. Unfortunately, the attack only caused his palm to tremble, and the icy, bone-chilling power was blocked by the surface of his plain flesh.
"Is this all the resistance you've got? You can't even muster the right to give me my satisfaction." Qin Luo shook his head, somewhat disappointed.
Without further hesitation, his arm muscles bulged instantly, unleashing a powerful force as he forcefully crushed the seed.
Click!
With a crisp sound, the silver crystal shattered into countless tiny fragments in Qin Luo's hand, its cold light instantly dimming.
"No! My Dao Seed!"
Without the support of the Dao Seed, the silver-robed man's aura instantly weakened, and his body swayed precariously. His face turned ashen, and black blood continuously oozed from the corners of his mouth, making him appear decades older in an instant.
"You ruined everything I had, I'll fight you to the death!"
The silver-robed man roared and charged towards Qin Luo recklessly. At this moment, he had completely lost his mind.
"The seed of the Dao?"
Upon noticing these words, Qin Luo secretly memorized them, realizing that this was likely a completely different cultivation system from the myriad worlds.
Then, looking at the silver-robed man charging towards her, she showed no pity whatsoever. She shifted to the side, easily dodging his attack.
Then, Qin Luo turned around and, taking advantage of the man's momentum, stomped on his back.
With a muffled thud, the silver-robed man was kicked forward and fell to the ground, dust flying everywhere.
Before the silver-robed man could struggle to his feet, Qin Luo stepped on his right arm, unleashing a chilling force.
The kick landed with immense force, and the silver-robed man's right arm instantly succumbed to the pressure.
A series of sounds of bones shattering rang out, accompanied by a chilling hissing sound—the sound of muscles, blood vessels, and tissues being crushed.
In the blink of an eye, the silver-robed man's right arm turned into a pool of indistinct flesh at Qin Luo's feet. Crimson blood mixed with broken bones and rotten flesh spread across the ground, emitting a nauseating stench.
"ah--!"
The man in the silver robe let out a shrill scream, blood gushing out and staining the ground red, his body convulsing in agony.
Qin Luo frowned slightly, a hint of disgust flashing in his eyes. He raised his leg and kicked again, striking the silver-robed man squarely in the chest. This kick, though seemingly powerful, was perfectly timed, holding back a considerable amount of force, leaving the man severely injured without killing him.
The silver-robed man was kicked away with tremendous force, sending a spray of blood flying. Accompanied by a muffled gust of wind, his figure flew backward rapidly, crashing through several pieces of broken wall.
With each impact, he was left utterly disheveled in mid-air. Propelled by inertia, he continued to tumble backward, leaving a long trail of blood before his figure gradually blurred into nothingness...
On the other side, the burly man who was seriously injured was also captured by Dongfang Jinyao.
"What should we do with him?" Dongfang Jinyao frowned slightly as she looked at the burly man lying on the ground, barely alive, and asked Qin Luo.
Although the burly man was severely injured, he was still conscious. Upon hearing Dongfang Jinyao's words, a flicker of fear flashed in his eyes. He tried to struggle, but found himself in excruciating pain all over his body and unable to muster any strength. He could only watch helplessly as Qin Luo appeared.
Qin Luo glanced at him and directly reached out, placing his hand on the burly man's head amidst the man's terrified gaze. Upon seeing this, the burly man's body trembled violently, and he let out muffled whimpers, as if begging for mercy.
Unfortunately, Qin Luo remained expressionless, his eyes devoid of any pity, and simply gave a light pinch. A sound like a tree branch breaking was exceptionally clear in the silent ruins.
The burly man's eyes were wide open, his death unresolved, and his body went completely limp, lifeless.
"Keeping one alive as bait is enough; any more would be a burden," Qin Luo said calmly, withdrawing his hand.
"A bait?" Dongfang Jinyao was taken aback, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes, before she understood Qin Luo's meaning. "You mean that the silver-robed man from earlier is still alive?"
"Don't worry, that person is seriously injured and won't live much longer, nor can he run very fast..." Qin Luo said, gazing into the distance, then turned back to Dongfang Jinyao with a gentle smile, "But it's up to you, Jinyao, to take over next."
Looking at the unfamiliar Qin Luo, who was completely different from his previous gentle temperament, yet revealed a unique decisiveness in his coldness, Dongfang Jinyao felt both familiar and somewhat strange.
When she came to her senses, she met Qin Luo's gaze, her beautiful eyes filled with a hint of doubt, and she said in a somewhat bewildered tone:
"I?"
