Elder Qiu coldly said, "This was originally prepared to kill that runt Chu Mo, but since you're so eager to seek death, then I'll use it to kill you first, and then suppress that little beast Chu Mo afterwards." In his view, as long as Qin Shi was killed, this damn Heavenly Tribulation would naturally dissipate. He then coldly shouted, "Supreme Cauldron… suppress for me!"

Hum!

The Supreme Cauldron emitted a humming sound, its vast aura pressing down towards Qin Shi.

Qin Shi stood firm in the void, her face showing not the slightest fear, but instead, her eyes were filled with disdain, "A supreme artifact… being used like this by you is simply casting pearls before swine. You trash, how could you know the true value of a supreme artifact? How could you understand how to use a supreme artifact?"

As she spoke, in the high sky above, in an instant, more than ten thousand purple lightning bolts appeared, striking directly at Elder Qiu and the newly conjured supreme dharma instrument—the little cauldron!

The purple lightning was like purple dragons, manifesting in the void, each bolt with heads and horns, their scales and claws fierce and ominous.

More than ten thousand purple lightning bolts mixed together, forming a terrifying force.

It covered the sky and the earth!

It suppressed all things!

"This is a supreme artifact!" Qin Shi sneered.

In an instant, the ten thousand bolts of purple lightning engulfed Elder Qiu along with the three dharma instruments on him.

A scream of utmost agony came from within the lightning, tragic and brief, ending in an instant.

Then, the Supreme Cauldron in the void let out a violent humming, as if unwilling to be suppressed by an artifact of the same level, its sound like a great bell or drum, flying straight towards the high sky.

Whoosh!

It broke through the void and disappeared without a trace. It had actually fled.

Qin Shi's face revealed a hint of regret as she spoke softly, "If I were just one realm higher, you couldn't have escaped at all!"

The two imperial dharma instruments were not even given a second glance as they were directly shattered to pieces by those ten thousand heavenly thunderbolts.

As for the arrogant and presumptuous Elder Qiu, he was obliterated both in body and spirit. Under such a level of attack, he, a cultivator in the Ascension phase, had no chance of escaping. It didn't matter that he was equipped with two imperial dharma instruments; even if he had two supreme defensive artifacts, he would still have been unable to escape death.

Hiss!

From all directions, countless disciples of the Illusion Sect were dumbfounded at this moment.

They stared blankly at the gradually calming endless firmament above, at the woman standing in the void with an ethereal grace like a fairy, their eyes widened. Not mesmerized by her beauty, but rather out of sheer fright!

"Aren't we saying… that only Chu Mo is a monstrous presence in this Immortal Realm? Then what's the deal with this woman now?"

"Who is this woman?"

"It seems to be the former Heavenly Realm's Qin family princess, Qin Shi!"

"How can she possess such a terrifying artifact? Is it a supreme one? The Qin family, although a major clan in the Heavenly Realm… do they really have such a powerful supreme artifact?" A knowledgeable Illusion Sect disciple expressed disbelief, their stint in the Immortal Realm, due to special reasons, had given them considerable understanding of the Heavenly Realm's affairs. They couldn't believe the Qin family would have an artifact of this level.

"This dharma instrument... may not necessarily belong to the Qin family, because even if the Qin family possesses such a high-level dharma instrument, it is unlikely to appear in the hands of a woman," someone said.

"Indeed, it is said that both Qin Shi and Dong Yu, although they have not openly defected from their respective families, have in fact separated themselves from their clans," an informed person revealed.

Over there, the Illusion Sect's Sect Leader Li Zhongyuan and others felt a chill in their hearts. They hadn't expected that a woman by Chu Mo's side would possess such terrifying combat power; originally, they had recognized only Chu Mo's abilities. Now, it seemed they had to change their previous views.

The Illusion Sect disciples who had participated in the destruction of the Piaomiao Palace in the Immortal Realm were trembling with fear, barely able to stand steady. A huge sense of relief rose in their hearts: If Qin Shi had displayed the combat power she showed today while they were threatening her and Dong Yu in that condescending manner after smashing the Piaomiao Palace, who among them could have returned alive?

"It seems our Illusion Sect's philosophy is indeed most correct. As human beings, we must be reasonable!" A disciple who had participated in the destruction of the Piaomiao Palace couldn't help murmuring to himself.

After eliminating Elder Qiu of the Illusion Sect, Qin Shi did not stay there looking down upon all living beings but directly flew back to Chu Mo's side. With a faint smile on her exquisite and stunning face, she smiled at Chu Mo and said, "Mission accomplished."

Chu Mo nodded, "Well killed!"

His words changed many people's faces on the spot. Even though many of them disapproved of Elder Qiu's recent actions, Elder Qiu was, after all, a member of the Illusion Sect and had a considerably powerful backing within the Heavenly Realm's Illusion Sect. His death could lead to countless unforeseen consequences.

Li Zhongyuan sighed, came up to Chu Mo, and said with a bitter smile, "Young Master Chu, about this matter..."

Chu Mo waved his hand, "Don't worry, this matter has nothing to do with you. I won't trouble the Illusion Sect."

"..." On the spot, many people had darkened faces and were at a loss for words, thinking who's afraid of your trouble? You killed an influential Elder of our Illusion Sect. Shouldn't you be the one to give us an explanation?

Li Zhongyuan was also at a loss for words, but understanding Chu Mo's true identity, he naturally couldn't treat Chu Mo the way he would other cultivators.

"You need not take this matter too much to heart, Young Master Chu. I will explain it to the Heavenly Realm's Illusion Sect," Li Zhongyuan finally managed to say. He could see that Chu Mo hadn't even considered Elder Qiu's death worth bothering about.

Thinking carefully, it was indeed the case. When this young man had nothing to his name in the past, he faced the descendants of the Heavenly Realm's great clans without any fear. How could one expect that he, who has begun to grow today, would be truly worried about the death of an Elder of a sect in the Immortal Realm?

Chu Mo looked at Li Zhongyuan meaningfully and said, "Sect Leader Li, let's not talk about my background. If you have the chance, give my thanks to that senior who spoke on my behalf. But in truth, I believe that the ones who should truly feel fortunate are the members of the Immortal Realm's Illusion Sect! If it weren't for that senior's intervention, what would have been destroyed today is not just one of your sect's gates. And the one who died wouldn't just be an insignificant person."

Those of the Illusion Sect's upper echelons present all had dark expressions on their faces; these words were simply too arrogant! Elder Qiu was also dismissed by him as an insignificant person. Damn it, in your eyes, what counts as a significant figure?

Chu Mo looked at everyone's expressions, smiled faintly, and did not say much else, cupping his fists towards Li Zhongyuan, "Goodbye!"

The Demon Lord and Die, along with Qin Shi and Dong Yu, accompanied Chu Mo as they walked down the mountain of the Illusion Sect.

All along the way, every Illusion Sect disciple automatically made way for Chu Mo and his companions. They watched this group of people slowly disappear from their sight with exceedingly complex emotions.

"So arrogant!" An Illusion Sect elder, who had a good relationship with Elder Qiu, clenched his fists and growled lowly.

"Indeed, it is a bit... excessive," another Illusion Sect elder sighed.

Li Zhongyuan, however, shook his head slightly, said nothing, turned around, took one step forward, and suddenly a trickle of fresh blood flowed down from the corner of his mouth.
