Demon Lord and His Unknown Child With the Empress

Around the cliff, there were countless caves. These caves were residences of the Ghost Puppet Grotto cultivators.

Numerous caves covered the cliff, and cultivators jumped to get around.

On the quiet night, the moon hung high in the sky, and the clouds were thick.

Ning Yechen quietly arrived at the Ghost Puppet Grotto and floated in midair. He looked down at the compound belonging to one of the top sects in the land and said softly, “I’ll start here.”

He had principles!

As long as others took action against the people under his protection, he would never show mercy!

Since they had injured his wife and wanted to capture his daughter, he would let the Four Major Sects disappear altogether.

Even though he could have left this to Chaos Demonic Bull and the other two, who were already strong enough to wipe out the Four Major Sects, it would have been too inefficient.

Thus, Ning Yechen decided to do it personally. It would be a quick and easy job!

He still had to rush to the next location.

Ning Yechen raised his hand, and a small flame instantly appeared in his palm.

The small flame gradually grew. Before long, a giant fireball roughly 30 meters wide appeared in his hand.

The fireball was as bright and scorching as the sun, making the atmosphere contort. It was so hot that ripples resembling roving fire dragons could be seen on its surface.

It was so bright that it felt like daylight!

The temperature at the Ghost Puppet Grotto rapidly rose. The cultivators detected something amiss and came out of their caves one after another. They raised their heads and looked at the night sky at a loss.

“W-what\'s going on?”

“Is it morning?”

“I remember I just went to sleep.”

“Why is the sun so close?”

“No, wait! Look! There\'s someone there!”

“T-that man is using an immortal technique!”

The people from the Ghost Puppet Grotto discovered Ning Yechen, and their faces instantly turned pale.

Someone was able to use such a powerful immortal technique!

If he threw the fireball at them, the Ghost Puppet Grotto would be no more!

A few figures flew from the Ghost Puppet Grotto and arrived in front of Ning Yechen.

“Elder, may I ask who you are?”

“What calls for your visit and at such a late hour?”

“Elder, can you remove the fireball first?”

A few Ghost Puppet Grotto elders flew over and spoke politely to Ning Yechen.

Only after getting closer did they realize how dreadful the fireball in Ning Yechen’s hand was.

The fireball\'s heat and pressure left them gasping and sweating all over. Even their skin felt like it was burning!

What was worse, the fireball kept expanding!

“Sir, may I ask what we have done wrong? Please forgive us. When our leader comes back, he will apologize personally!” said the great elder of the Ghost Puppet Grotto, Gui Jue, reverently.

In his mind, he had to buy time for Old Ghost to return.

Otherwise, this fireball was enough to utterly destroy the Ghost Puppet Grotto!

Ning Yechen glanced at the people in disdain. He decided to let them know why they were dying and said indifferently, “Your leader won’t be coming back. As for the Ghost Puppet Grotto, it will cease to exist from now on.”

“W-what?” Gui Jue was stupefied.

Their leader, Old Ghost, had been killed!

And this man before them genuinely wanted to annihilate the Ghost Puppet Grotto in one fell swoop!

“Do it! Stop him!” Gui Jue shouted furiously.

The elders used their best magic treasures to attack Ning Yechen.

Ning Yechen could not be bothered to look at them. He raised the fireball with one hand behind him without budging the slightest. Dozens of fire dragons shot out of the fireball and attacked these people!

“Ahh!”

In an instant, the fire dragons swallowed them and their best magic treasures. Resistance was completely futile!

Screams resounded as several elders from one of the best sects were turned into dust!

The disciples of the Ghost Puppet Grotto were frozen stiff, unable to believe what they were seeing.

They were one of the top sects in the world, part of the Four Major Sects, but their elders had been killed without any resistance.

The first to react scattered in panic.

Ning Yechen gently tossed the fireball. Its shadow instantly shrouded the Ghost Puppet Grotto. There was no escape!

Before the fireball landed, the heat radiating from it was enough to turn humans into ashes!

RUMBLE!

When the fireball landed, the Ghost Puppet Grotto instantly melted away, along with everything within a three-kilometer radius.

All that remained was a bottomless ravine!

Steam rose from the ravine. It was so hot that no living creature in the surrounding area could approach it!

From now on, the Ghost Puppet Grotto was no more.

Meanwhile, Tianxia Scholastic Palace, located in the Eastern Province, was razed to the ground by tens of thousands of heavenly lightning.

The Sharp Sword Sect in the Central Province was eradicated by a single stroke of a sword. All that remained of the sect was a three-kilometer-long sword gully.

The Almighty Combat Hall located in Southern Province was the same. It was completely crushed by a massive mountain and replaced by it.

Overnight, the Four Major Sects were annihilated!

Three replicates created using Ning Yechen\'s divine soul flew back to his side and merged back into his body.

At this moment, dozens of bolts of heavenly lightning struck at Ning Yechen without warning!

Each heavenly lightning bolt had the power to rend the sky and split the earth!

This was one of the laws of the Mortal Realm. In a way, it was divine punishment to control cultivators.

In the Mortal Realm, the highest possible cultivation level was the peak of the Heavenly Immortal realm. Even if people from the Six Realms entered the Mortal Realm, they had to suppress their cultivation.

The moment strength above the peak of the Heavenly Immortal realm was used, heavenly lightning would be triggered as divine punishment!

The methods that Ning Yechen had used were far beyond the peak of the Heavenly Immortal realm, so divine punishment was triggered.

But for this to work, the divine punishment had to be more powerful than the target in question.

If the cultivator was so powerful that they did not fear divine punishment, this law was useless against them, such as with Ning Yechen.

Facing the dozens of bolts of heavenly lightning, Ning Yechen was unworried. He was long used to it.

Every time he took action, divine punishment would descend. It was basically like a massage to him.

A dark defensive barrier made of spiritual energy automatically appeared and covered Ning Yechen. Dozens of bolts of heavenly lightning struck the barrier, but they were unable to break it.

After the heavenly lightning ended, Ning Yechen leisurely deactivated his barrier.

He had used his divine soul to make four replicates to perform immortal techniques. He could tell that the heavenly lightning this time was far stronger than usual.

However, it could be stronger.

After taking care of the Four Major Sects, Ning Yechen looked up at the sky. He transformed into a light once more and flew into the sky.

It was time to go to the Heavenly Realm again!
