Chunibyo in Cultivation World

Indeed, right before Su Qianhe’s eyes, among those densely packed little ghosts—those evil ghosts and wicked souls he had just regarded as petty arts—

Su Qianhe saw a familiar figure, none other than the ancestor Yun Danzhi of the Sacred Land of Baiyuan.

A mighty cultivator of the Union Realm had actually become one of the little ghosts—how could this still be called “little ghosts”?

It was precisely he who had given Su Qianhe a threat of death.

”How is this possible? Why is he here? He was actually refined into an evil soul?”

Su Qianhe looked and immediately recognized Yun Danzhi’s condition. This was not the living Yun Danzhi; his body brimmed with sinister, yin energy—only the divine soul remained here.

It was clear that he had been refined by Li Tianwei. And Yun Danzhi’s consciousness was not completely erased—after all, Li Tianwei still wanted him to suffer punishment.

Now that Li Tianwei had driven him out, Yun Danzhi finally no longer had to endure that torture within the soul banner.

In Yun Danzhi’s opinion, as long as he performed well and resolved problems for Li Tianwei, he might not need to suffer further pain within the soul banner.

”Yun Danzhi… how is this possible…”

Su Qianhe widened his eyes, staring in disbelief.

Even so, Su Qianhe did not feel fear. Although Yun Danzhi was also in the Union Realm, Su Qianhe’s strength was far superior. He felt no fear.

His previous contempt completely vanished, and Su Qianhe became utterly serious, immediately raising defenses.

Faced with this situation, he had no time to ponder how Yun Danzhi had been refined into an evil soul within the soul banner.

Just as Su Qianhe planned to suppress Yun Danzhi, several familiar faces appeared at the side.

They were all Out-of-Body Realm cultivators—and mixed among them were two Spirit Transformation Realm cultivators.

Several of them were even cultivators from other Sacred Lands. This lineup was clearly formed for the purpose of assassinating a Union Realm cultivator.

Seeing this lineup, Su Qianhe’s expression drastically changed.

”Th–this… just what exactly has Li Tianwei done…”

At this moment, a terrifying thought surfaced in Su Qianhe’s mind as he looked at Li Tianwei.

He immediately connected the dots.

”These people… could they be the cultivators who intended to assassinate Li Tianwei?”

With this thought, everything suddenly made sense—otherwise, why would Yun Danzhi appear here? And why would there be divine souls of several Out-of-Body Realm cultivators?

”But why were they refined into the soul banner… and why didn’t he suffer backlash?”

An immature yet possible answer emerged in Su Qianhe’s mind.

Su Qianhe, a late-stage Union Realm cultivator, held extremely high status in the Sacred Land of Lingxu. With his level of cultivation, he had a very high chance of becoming the Sacred Land’s next Tribulation-Crossing Ancestor—perhaps after a few thousand more years.

Thus, he knew many hidden secrets—especially regarding Li Tianwei.

Seeing the situation before him, Su Qianhe began to suspect that he had been abandoned. Such a large action, yet they had not informed him.

If it wasn’t a matter of information… then the remaining possibility was something Su Qianhe no longer dared to consider.

Li Tianwei could actually subdue a Union Realm cultivator?

At this moment, Su Qianhe’s calm demeanor from earlier completely vanished. Panic overtook him.

As for Fei Xuzi and the rest, they had long fled the moment Li Tianwei and Su Qianhe began fighting.

Only Su Changde was left. He saw Su Qianhe unleash the Heavenly Net—Annihilating Hand, a sky-shrouding suppression technique, and immediately shouted:

”Old Ancestor! Quickly take him down! Being First Disciple? I think I’m qualified too!”

Su Changde had no idea what the current battle situation was.

Meanwhile, Li Tianwei continued to act. With the combined attack method of Yun Danzhi and the other evil souls, Su Qianhe was soon at a disadvantage.

”Nephew, nephew, this matter can still be discussed! I am at least an Ancestor of the Sacred Land of Lingxu!”

Seeing the scene, Su Qianhe immediately shouted toward Li Tianwei.

But Li Tianwei showed no change in expression. He continued driving the Saint Soul Banner, coupled with the suppression of the Fusion Golden Core.

Seeing Li Tianwei ignore him, Su Qianhe grew even more anxious—especially sensing that Yun Danzhi was showing absolutely no mercy, every move clearly aimed at killing him.

At this moment, Su Qianhe could no longer care about anything else.

”Gather spirit—unite!”

”You forced me. Don’t think that relying on such a formation can take me down. Yun Danzhi was nothing but someone I had already defeated!”

”True form—descend!”

Su Qianhe did not hesitate—he decided to let his true form descend.

Boom——

In an instant, an even more terrifying pressure descended from the heavens, a pillar of light piercing straight into the clouds.

Originally suppressed by Yun Danzhi, Su Qianhe suddenly trembled; his aura changed drastically, and an incomparably vast energy surged forth.

Even the yin-tainted power dyed by Li Tianwei’s Saint Soul Banner was overtaken by a surge of spirituality.

”Li Tianwei, why must it come to this!”

”We are people of great talent, born to stand above all. You will eventually become one of us.”

”Do you intend to betray the identity of a cultivator?”

With his true form descended, Su Qianhe looked toward Li Tianwei and spoke.

”Betray? I have not betrayed anything. My thoughts are simple—follow the order you all established. I merely put you weaklings—those whose positions differ from mine—into my banner.”

”In essence, nothing has changed.”

”The strong make the rules. Since you are weak, you must recognize your position and accept my rules.”

Li Tianwei stepped forward as he spoke.

Su Qianhe’s temples pulsed violently; fury blazed in his eyes.

Just imagine—a Union Realm cultivator being called “weak” by a Golden Core cultivator. Su Qianhe had stood above others for thousands of years. Even a Tribulation-Crossing Ancestor would give him some courtesy.

”You…”

Enraged, Su Qianhe raised a finger toward Li Tianwei—but Li Tianwei seemed to anticipate the move and pointed at Su Qianhe first.

”Also—telling me won’t help. You should tell him.”

Li Tianwei pointed behind Su Qianhe.

As the words fell, Su Qianhe finally felt a chilling cold behind him—along with an instinctively terrifying aura.

Su Qianhe slowly turned his head.

Only to see a face he would never forget in his entire life—smiling at him.

”Long time no see, Elder Su。”

The person was the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood, refined by Li Tianwei.

”Y–you… why are you here…”

Seeing the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood, Su Qianhe instantly retreated a step, his face full of shock.

He had never imagined he would encounter the Ancestor of Heavenly Blood here. And judging from the floating spiritual body and aura, he too was one of the evil souls within Li Tianwei’s soul-banner.

”How is this possible…”
