#796 - Don't be afraid, I'm gentle.

Jun Wuxie advanced, and the experts of the Ancient Phoenix Sect retreated, their legs weakening until they collapsed onto the ground.

"So scared you can't stand? Am I that terrifying?" Jun Wuxie stepped forward and sat down opposite him, saying, "Look at you, a mid-stage Half-Sage in the Extreme Celestial Realm, considered a formidable expert, yet you're acting like this. Isn't that a bit unbecoming of a master?"

The Ancient Phoenix Sect expert's wrinkled face twitched. He wanted to curse loudly. What bullshit about composure? He was about to die! Who cared about composure when death was imminent? Could composure save his life?

"Look at me, such a sunny and warm guy, not as scary as you think. Really, I actually hate violence. I don't like bloodshed. I'm very gentle."

"Bullshit!" The Ancient Phoenix Sect expert finally couldn't bear it any longer. Abandoning all composure, he cursed, "Sunny and warm guy my ass! You cruel little brat, your hands are covered in blood, and you dare call yourself gentle? You're shameless!"

"You're too agitated. I think you could calm down a bit."

"Calm down my ass!"

The Ancient Phoenix Sect expert trembled with rage. A butcher who wanted to kill him was smiling at him, telling him not to be agitated and to calm down. It was simply absurd, the greatest joke in the world!

"Well, you can think about how, if you could break through to the late or peak stage of the Extreme Celestial Realm, you'd have thousands of years of lifespan ahead of you, a brilliant life. In this most prosperous era, you'd see so much magnificence. Thinking like that, wouldn't you feel that, ah, life is truly wonderful?"

"You…" The Ancient Phoenix Sect expert's mind conjured a magnificent future, but when he thought about how he was about to die here, at the hands of this youth, a wave of sorrow washed over him. That feeling of desolation deeply impacted his Dao heart. He looked at Jun Wuxie with an indescribable gaze, his trembling hand pointing at him: "You… you demon, you devil!"

Seeing the Ancient Phoenix Sect expert's almost collapsing appearance, Jun Wuxie smiled, a smile that was exceptionally sunny and radiant.

Suddenly, a brilliant light of the soul bloomed from his brow, coalescing into a beam that instantly entered the Ancient Phoenix Sect expert's mind.

The Ancient Phoenix Sect expert's body trembled, and a brief moment of blankness appeared on his face.

The next moment, he suddenly awoke, and mysterious forbidden runes surfaced in his sea of consciousness, emitting an extremely dangerous aura.

Jun Wuxie narrowed his eyes slightly and retracted his soul light.

"Little brat, you schemed and plotted, wanting to break my mind and take the opportunity to invade my sea of consciousness, to steal my memories! My sect has a soul restriction. You want to steal them? Dream on!"

The Ancient Phoenix Sect expert roared, his eyes bloodshot, looking like a madman.

Jun Wuxie's lips twitched slightly. He touched his nose and said, "Want to live? As long as you truthfully tell me the foundation and strength of your Ancient Phoenix Sect, how many people there are at each stage of the Extreme Celestial Realm, and tell me all the secrets you know about the Heavenly Purity Sect and the Soul Hunting Hall, I can spare your life and let you leave unharmed."

"Hahaha! Little brat, you're truly laughable! Do you think this old man would betray the main sect to save his life? You can use your most vicious methods to torture me and see if you can get the answers you want from my mouth!"

At this moment, the Ancient Phoenix Sect expert seemed to have been aroused with fighting spirit. He no longer feared death. The whole person was as if injected with chicken blood.

"Since you're unwilling to seize the opportunity to live, then I'll grant your wish."

As Jun Wuxie spoke, he shattered the Ancient Phoenix Sect expert's head with a palm strike, suppressed his soul, and directly took it into his cave.

He withdrew the phenomenon domain and walked out of the City Lord's Mansion, stepping directly into the battlefield between his avatar and the last Ancient Phoenix Sect expert.

That Ancient Phoenix Sect expert's face was pale, and his eyes were like dead ashes, filled with despair and unwillingness.

"Hahaha!" He laughed madly, filled with sorrow: "My life was brilliant. I dominated the world in my era. I originally thought that sealing myself until this great era would give me a chance to break through to the late stage, but I never expected that, at the mid-stage of the Extreme Celestial Realm, I would capsize in a ditch and be defeated by you, a Middle Celestial Realm cultivator. This is my greatest shame and my greatest sorrow…"

"There's nothing to lament. You brought it upon yourself. Those who kill will be killed. Moreover, you people dared to take on jobs you weren't qualified for. You actively sought death. Killing you today wasted a lot of energy and time. I'll remember this debt on your sect's head. When I have time in the future, I'll come to collect, and you'll have to compensate me for the wasted work, mental damage, and so on."

"Jun brat, don't be too arrogant. You will eventually die!"

The Ancient Phoenix Sect expert roared hoarsely.

"Noisy."

Jun Wuxie stepped forward, throwing a punch to kill him. The already weakened Ancient Phoenix Sect expert couldn't resist. He was killed in just a few punches, blood splattering into the sky.

The entire Post Station City fell silent, utterly silent, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Everyone held their breath, staring blankly at this scene.

The scene they witnessed today overturned all their perceptions. Even now, they felt like they were in a dream.

A Half-Sage in the Middle Celestial Realm, facing five early-stage and four mid-stage Extreme Celestial Realm experts, actually turned the tables and killed them all!

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn't have dared to imagine such a thing, even in their wildest dreams.

This was a legend, a myth!

"Everyone, I'm very sorry. Encountering some clowns on my journey has startled you all." Jun Wuxie's gaze swept across the entire city, finally landing on the City Lord's Mansion, saying, "The people hiding inside should come out. Who knows how to control the formation? Hurry up and turn off the barrier, and by the way, activate the Ancient Starry Sky Road teleportation array. Your City Lord's Mansion has already wasted a lot of my time. If you delay any further, I might have to ask you to compensate me for the wasted work."

Immediately, many people from the City Lord's Mansion scrambled out, extremely disheveled and trembling with fear.

"Don't be afraid. I'm very gentle and won't kill people indiscriminately."

Jun Wuxie tried his best to make himself look gentle, with a bright and sunny smile.

Unexpectedly, the people from the City Lord's Mansion, seeing his expression, were even more terrified, their bodies softening, and they collapsed on the ground, unable to walk.

The muscles on the faces of the other people in the city were twitching uncontrollably.

He had just killed nine Extreme Celestial Realm experts, and the blood mist of the Extreme Celestial Realm was still floating in the air, yet he said he was gentle?

Is that how the word 'gentle' is defined?

But no one dared to object. This aura directly suppressed the entire city. Everyone was silent as cicadas in winter. Even his die-hard fans were filled with awe, although their eyes held excitement, they didn't dare to speak out.

Time passed little by little, and the city remained silent.

The people from the City Lord's Mansion closed the formation barrier and activated the Ancient Starry Sky Road teleportation array.

Jun Wuxie didn't delay any longer and landed in front of the great array in the center of the plaza.

At this time, he heard a divine sense transmission: "God Jun, you killed the Star Enclosure City Lord, you must be careful. The Starry Sky Road Headquarters will likely not let this go, and they will send enforcers to capture and kill you."

"Starry Sky Road Headquarters, enforcers?" Jun Wuxie stopped in front of the Starry Sky Road teleportation array. His powerful divine sense sensed the crowd, finding the person who had transmitted the divine sense to him.

It was a young man in brocade clothing, with a noble bearing and decent looks. He seemed to be from a large family or sect in the starry sky.

"That's right. God Jun, this is your first time coming to the starry sky, so you may not know much about the Starry Sky Road Headquarters and the enforcers. Actually, I've only heard my family elders mention it, so I don't know much either."

"It is said that the Starry Sky Road Headquarters controls the order of all Starry Sky Post Stations. Therefore, even if the City Lords of these Starry Sky Post Stations are only in the early stages of the Extreme Celestial Realm, very few people will clash with them, simply because the Starry Sky Road Headquarters behind them is unfathomable!"

"The Starry Sky Road Headquarters is similar to the Tower of Wonders, very mysterious and extremely powerful. No one knows how deep their foundation is. It is said that since ancient times, they have always stood firm during every apocalyptic flood, and they will establish Starry Sky Refuges to receive some people to take refuge there."

"God Jun, don't think that this kind of mysterious force that has established merit will necessarily be reasonable. After all, there are many high-level members inside, and it is difficult to guarantee that those high-level members do not have their own confidants. Star Enclosure may be someone's confidant."

"Of course, the entire Starry Sky Road Headquarters may not deal with God Jun, but some of the high-level members are hard to say. Their enforcers, I have never seen, but I have heard family elders say that they are very strong!"

"It is said that the people they protect in every apocalyptic flood are not ordinary people, but those with extremely high talent. After the apocalyptic flood, most of those people will join them, so they have an astonishing number of talented people. It is certain that the strength of the enforcers is much stronger than the Star Enclosure City Lord."

"Thank you for telling me this information. What is your name?"

"I dare not leave my name. God Jun, please be careful."

After the divine sense transmission finished speaking, it fell silent and said no more.

Jun Wuxie remembered the appearance of that young man, turned around, and stepped onto the teleportation array, disappearing from this city in a flash of light.

As soon as he left, the silent city instantly exploded.

"He's gone, God Jun is gone!"

"Quick, quick, quick, does anyone have a rune memory stone that recorded the previous scenes? I want to copy it down, I'll pay any price!"

"Wuwu, God Jun is so handsome, so amazing. I've decided, from now on, I'm going to be God Jun's little fan girl!"

"Too fierce, too fierce! Much fiercer than those battle scenes we used to find on the Starry Sky Rune Communicator. Today I saw the real divine power!"

"My goodness, a Middle Celestial Realm cultivator killing an Extreme Celestial Realm cultivator, and nine of them at that. Come on, let me pinch you and see if I'm dreaming!"

"Damn, it hurts! Why don't you pinch yourself?"

"Hahaha, hurry up and sell the image recording to some large platforms in the starry sky. No matter how high the price, they won't hesitate. This is definitely super explosive news! It can be predicted that the starry sky is going to boil and there will be a big shock!"

"No, wouldn't that be exposing Lord Divine's strength to everyone in the starry sky? I heard that he is very likely heading to the Western Luo Star Region. It seems someone has set a trap to kill him this time. Doing this will be detrimental to Lord Divine!"

"You're overthinking it. If we don't sell the video data, do you think others won't? Think about it, is everyone in this city a worshiper of Lord Divine? Will those who are jealous of him let this opportunity pass? So, we should still earn the spirit coins we can. If we're late, the price will drop. Hurry up, don't miss the chance to get rich…"

… …

In the vast starry sky heading towards the Western Luo Star Region, Jun Wuxie was ejected from the Ancient Starry Sky Road.

The Starry Sky Teleportation Array doesn't directly teleport to the city where the target station is located each time, but to the starry sky near the target Starry Sky Station City.

However, for the vast starry sky, this so-called 'nearby' still involves a considerable distance.

"Headquarters of the Ancient Starry Sky Road?"

Jun Wuxie frowned inwardly. What is the meaning of the existence of this Ancient Starry Sky Road Headquarters?

Is it simply to maintain order on the Ancient Starry Sky Road and maintain contact between the ancient life stars in the starry sky?

He shook his head, resolving to explore it thoroughly if he had the chance in the future.

Right now, the most important thing is to break through his realm and reach the Western Luo Star Region as soon as possible.

Lan Lan carried him and Vermilion Bird at more than ten times the speed of light, traveling in the dark and desolate starry sky.

When passing by a desolate star, he directed Lan Lan to descend.

This star was extremely cold, with no water, no oxygen, only sand and gravel everywhere.

The star's atmosphere was very thick, dark yellow, and the resulting cloud sea raged constantly like a tornado. The natural environment was very harsh.

Jun Wuxie came down from Lan Lan and sat cross-legged on a piece of weathered rock, his mind sinking into his Blessed Land, urging his Natal Star, and began to refine the nine Great Perfection Heavenly Rank experts he had killed.

With the bodies of these experts, the speed of cultivation was faster than with divine beast blood.

Through the grinding of the Millstone of the World in the Natal Star, their true essence could be directly converted into his own blood energy, equivalent to forcibly stripping their cultivation for himself.

However, in the process of grinding and purifying by the Millstone of the World, the true essence energy would be greatly reduced.

The true essence of a Great Perfection Heavenly Rank expert was extremely majestic, but after grinding, most of it turned into impurities, leaving only a small amount of essence.
