CHAPTER 431: WIPE THEM ALL OUT

Chapter 431: Wipe Them All Out

...

Burning Purity Holy Land.

Chen Huaian remained unaware that two major sects were about to emerge in Cangyun Realm. At this moment, he was busy plundering the Burning Purity Holy Land's treasury.

"Buddhist cultivation relics? Taken!"

"Ritual robes? Though low-grade, they can serve as cleaning rags or be extracted for modern exorcism materials..."

"Spirit Crystals? Hehehe! They're all mine now!"

"Erotic art books? And male-male versions? So this is what you were up to, Monk Burning Karma! Who would've thought such a stern-looking monk had these tastes!"

Chen Huaian burned the entire basket of booklets collected by Monk Burning Karma with a flick of his fingers. These things absolutely couldn't be seen by his precious Qingran - they were pure mental pollution. Though Monk Burning Karma would surely grieve their loss. Some appeared quite aged, likely rare collector's editions painstakingly acquired over the years, now all gone.

So far, he hadn't received any system notification about Monk Burning Karma's death. That meant the monk definitely still lived, probably licking his wounds in some hidden corner. Before the monk recovered enough to return, Chen Huaian needed to thoroughly clean out Burning Purity Holy Land.

...

"Ancestor, we've gathered all resources from Burning Purity Holy Land. Nothing remains."

Disciples piled the loot in the holy land's central plaza, originally a place for disciples to receive teachings. Now it hosted a mountain of assorted goods. Unlike disciples from other sects like the Alchemy Sect or Lingxi Valley who only took cultivation resources, Sword Pavilion disciples left nothing behind - paintings, calligraphy, plants, furniture - resulting in this massive accumulation.

"Are you certain this is everything?"

Chen Huaian narrowed his eyes at the "mountain," then pointed toward the gilded white jade gate in the distance. "Isn't Burning Purity Holy Land's mountain gate magnificent?"

The True Martial Holy Land disciple reporting to him froze. "Ah... You mean..."

"What was my order? What did I emphasize?"

When the disciple faltered, Li Qingran immediately answered: "Master commanded we wipe them all out!"

"Exactly! Wiping them out means taking everything within sight!"

Chen Huaian stomped on the floor tiles, his lips curling into a ferocious grin. "Our Sword Pavilion still uses dirt roads while Burning Purity Holy Land enjoys gilded white jade tiles? Such extravagance! Such waste! Dig them all up and take them away!"

The disciples: "......"

Since the Ancestor had spoken, they had no choice. After half a day's labor, they completely stripped Burning Purity Holy Land bare - not a single structure remained, all transported into Chen Huaian's miniature world. Only a desolate island floated on the Golden Buddha Sea, barren except for some weeds since even slightly attractive spirit plants had been uprooted. Now, even if Monk Burning Karma crawled out from some crevice, he'd never recognize this island as his former holy land.

As for the Twelve-Petaled Golden Lotus spiritual treasure, it too had been damaged during the heavenly tribulation, its artifact spirit obliterated by divine lightning, leaving only a husk. Once capable of containing multiple miniature worlds, it now struggled to hold even a holy land. The lotus's original functions meant nothing to Chen Huaian - he planned to melt it down into materials for crafting defensive magic tools for Li Qingran.

It embarrassed him that as a Great Ascension cultivator, he'd only given his disciple one weapon - the Su Xian Sword. Though Li Qingran never complained, the thought made him feel cheap.

"Ancestor, we've taken down Burning Purity Holy Land." Su Qinian gazed at the wasteland, his chest swelling with pride. "Shall we strike at Jade Pool Holy Land next?"

Chen Huaian considered it. Striking Jade Pool Holy Land in one go was feasible, but would the heavenly tribulation strike twice the same way? Could he use the same method against Real Person Yuyao? As the saying goes, one trick serves all purposes - but cheating Cangyun Realm's Heavenly Dao system with cultivation fraud probably only worked for a cheat like him.

"Wait while I divine the outcome."

Chen Huaian activated the Heaven's Calculation system in his electronic girlfriend game. He'd once believed reaching Great Ascension would make him independent of this system - at this level, reading heavenly secrets should be child's play. But upon truly attaining Great Ascension, he discovered reality wasn't so simple. While this realm provided greater insight, it merely upgraded his "magnifying glass" to a "microscope," whereas the game system functioned like precision tweezers and a search engine, grabbing heavenly secrets directly. What truly unsettled him was the system's apparent ability to grasp fragments of the future.

"Heaven's Calculation, determine my chances against Real Person Yuyao and capturing Jade Pool Holy Land."

BOOM—!

Storm clouds gathered above Golden Buddha Sea as spiritual energy swirled toward Chen Huaian. Su Qinian watched with bored familiarity, even yawning.

[Heaven's Calculation complete!]

[Player's cultivation insufficient to calculate Real Person Yuyao's specifics. Forced calculation risks backlash. Estimated victory chance against Yuyao: 0%.]

[However, success rate for attacking Jade Pool Holy Land: 100%.]

[First calculation today is free.]

Chen Huaian frowned at these contradictory results. Zero chance against Yuyao but guaranteed success against her holy land? Did this mean Yuyao would simply hand over Jade Pool Holy Land?

"Let's go investigate Jade Pool Holy Land immediately." He decided instantly, determined to uncover the truth.

...

Meanwhile, at Xuanhe Gate.

After a full day's work, Real Person Yuyao had finally established a rudimentary mountain gate, though something still felt lacking.

"Creating another holy land quickly is impossible - the resources here are insufficient, just a half-mined minor spirit vein... I'll have to fund the initial spirit stone supply myself." She pondered while examining the gate.

The spirit vein issue was solvable. Cangyun Realm's veins were either controlled by sects or located in monster-infested wilderness. For a non-holy land sect, seizing veins from demons would suffice - her power allowed relocating minor veins, while larger ones could become mining outposts connected by teleportation arrays.

Her real concern was infrastructure - floor tiles, decorative spirit plants that also generated spiritual energy. While spirit plants were abundant, especially in demon territories, collecting and categorizing them would be tedious. Tiles could be custom-made by the Artifact Sect, but that required money and time. Given her current resentment toward their leader, visiting might end in bloodshed.

"Where to acquire ready-made infrastructure?"

As Yuyao mused aloud, inspiration struck. With Monk Burning Karma dead, Burning Purity Holy Land stood empty! Even if disciples had looted resources, they wouldn't have taken fixtures! The decorative plants were ready for transplant too! She could simply relocate everything from Burning Purity Holy Land with minimal adjustments - perfect! While Jade Pool Holy Land's facilities were good, their distinctive style required extensive modification. Burning Purity's remains were the ideal solution.

"What a genius combination of beauty and brains I am!"

Yuyao clapped her fists together and immediately tore through space toward Golden Buddha Sea.
