Zi Lingling said, and the scalpel in her hand gently pressed against her throat.
Then, her right hand, holding the scalpel, drew a gentle arc outward.
At the same time, the scalpel lit up, and a sharp blade intent seemed to be cutting through the void.
Wei Chusheng was awakened by the coldness and suddenly came to his senses, but it was already too late.
Because his neck had already passed through the blade light, his body remained in the charging posture, but his head flew backward.
The entire process was as if the blade light had always existed, and he had just happened to run into it.
"Late arrival, first arrival! My life is over!"
This was the last thought that flashed through Wei Chusheng's mind, and then...
There was no then.
Zi Lingling was still smiling.
Wei Chusheng's head fell to the ground, and only then did blood spurt from his body.
He died with his eyes wide open!
Because he never understood how Zi Lingling managed to be the late arrival and first arrival.
As for the other four who came with Wei Chusheng, they were already silent.
The moment they fell into Zi Lingling's illusionary formation, their deaths were already sealed.
This was because Zi Lingling's illusionary formation carried a trace of killing intent.
Those with weak minds, once they were trapped in the formation, would lose their lives.
Zi Lingling's palm energy surged, and she aimed at the spot stained red by Wei Chusheng's blood. With a gentle pull, a stone was drawn into her hand.
Formation 563, broken!
Zi Lingling also stood on the path.
The trees on the sides were still green mixed with withered yellow.
This autumn, their decay was inevitable.
So, they all slowly accumulated energy, waiting for the day the east wind would blow again.
As Zi Lingling was about to step into formation 564, she felt five more presences.
She frowned and casually threw out a few stones.
Then, she smiled faintly and plunged into formation 564.
As soon as she entered, five more people appeared outside.
The moment these five people stepped on the ground, they disappeared.
Needless to say, they had fallen into the formation left by Zi Lingling.
Of course, they quickly met the same fate as Wei Chusheng and his group.
Zi Lingling broke through like a hot knife through butter, destroying almost one formation every breath.
...
Huan Sect, Formation Core Control Area.
Li Huanhuan's spiritual energy screen went dark after formation 563 was broken.
"How could this be? Did she shield this place from observation? Impossible! Impossible! This is a formation left by an Emperor-level formation master. That girl looks no more than thirteen or fourteen years old, how could she possibly do this?"
As Li Huanhuan was murmuring to himself, a disciple guarding the Soul Hall rushed in.
"Reporting to the Sect Master, the soul tablets of the Great Elder and the Saint Son are shattered!"
Li Huanhuan frowned and said, "How did they shatter? When did this happen?"
"Reporting to the Sect Master, this disciple does not know. We only discovered it just now."
In fact, it had been more than five days since Zi Lingling killed Xiao Shan and Nie Rufeng.
And the soul tablets of the two were kept in the Soul Hall of the Huan Sect.
Logically, the disciples guarding the Soul Hall should have discovered this long ago.
But perhaps the people of the Huan Sect lived too comfortably.
So, at some point, the daily check of soul tablets became a check once every seven days.
And the day Zi Lingling killed Xiao Shan and Nie Rufeng was the day after the disciples guarding the Soul Hall had completed their inspection. This meant that there were still five days until the next inspection.
This was why the shattered soul tablets of the two were discovered today, after being broken for five days.
"What are you guys doing? Aren't you supposed to be guarding the Soul Hall? How could you not even know when their soul tablets shattered?"
Li Huanhuan suddenly felt a sense of irritation and yelled.
"This..."
The disciple was already in awe of Li Huanhuan, and seeing him angry, he was greatly frightened.
He wanted to explain, but suddenly realized that from checking once a day to once every seven days, although no one had objected, no one had officially approved it either.
In other words, no matter what, it was negligence on the part of the disciples guarding the Soul Hall.
Just as he didn't know how to answer Li Huanhuan's question, another disciple from the Soul Hall rushed in in a panic.
"Reporting to the Sect Master, the soul tablets of the Second Elder and the four guardians of Feng Hua Xue Yue have just shattered!"
"What did you say?" Li Huanhuan's voice suddenly rose by three points, shocked.
The disciple was startled and thought Li Huanhuan hadn't heard clearly, so he repeated, "Sect... Sect Master, the soul tablets of the Second Elder and... and the four guardians of Feng Hua Xue Yue have just shattered!"
The four guardians of Feng Hua Xue Yue were the four people who had gone with Wei Chusheng to capture Zi Lingling.
Before Li Huanhuan could ask, another disciple from the Soul Hall rushed in.
"Reporting to the Sect Master, the soul tablets of the four guardians of Hua Qian Yue Xia and the Ninth Elder shattered just now!"
The four guardians of Hua Qian Yue Xia and the Ninth Elder were the five people in the second wave who went to capture Zi Lingling.
Li Huanhuan staggered back a step, leaning on the control console.
His heart was filled with shock, shock, and more shock.
"How could this be? Is that woman really that powerful?"
Li Huanhuan's murmuring scared the three reporting disciples into trembling.
They tried their best not to make any noise, lowering their presence.
A quarter of an hour later, Li Huanhuan finally came back to his senses, no longer having the inclination to scold the three.
"You may go."
He waved his hand, signaling the three to leave.
"Yes!"
The three responded in unison and quickly retreated.
Li Huanhuan stood dejectedly before the dark spiritual energy screen, contemplating a countermeasure.
But because his mind was in chaos, after thinking for a long time, his mind was still blank.
Just then, a crisp voice echoed above the Huan Sect.
"People of Huan Sect, come out and die!"
The owner of this voice was, without a doubt, Zi Lingling.
She had taken less than half an hour to completely break through the remaining three hundred plus formations.
At this moment, she stood casually outside the gates of the Huan Sect.
Her robes fluttered, and she was as carefree as clouds.
"Who dares to cause trouble at Huan Sect!"
The many elders and disciples of the Huan Sect were stunned, and then belatedly rushed to the sect gate.
The one at the forefront was the Third Elder of the Huan Sect, Pan Yu, who had responded to Zi Lingling's challenge.
Li Huanhuan, whose thoughts were in disarray, was also awakened by Zi Lingling's clear voice.
He paused for a moment, then disappeared from the formation core control area and appeared directly opposite Zi Lingling.
Killing intent shot from his eyes, and he asked coldly, "Who are you?"
