My Master Knows It All-Chapter 1364 - 328_5

Cao Zhen had never felt such a terrifying aura from anyone before, not even the Old Man Wu Shuang back then had given him such overwhelming pressure—this was an entirely incomparable level of power!

In the instant this figure appeared, it seemed as though the entire world turned pitch black because all light had been drawn to him.

In that moment, Cao Zhen realized one thing: the colossal mountain where they had been earlier had actually been a living grave. This man... this man was emerging from the massive tomb beneath that mountain. fгeewёbnoѵel_cσm

This man is...

As the giant mountain shattered, the cultivators flying through the air noticed the figure ascending from its depths. For a moment, terror gripped everyone’s hearts.

Elsewhere within the Heaven Prayers Sect, other cultivators also saw the figure in the void above.

"The Sect Master of the Heaven Prayers Sect!"

"The Sect Master of Heaven Prayers Sect!"

"He’s actually awakened!"

"Which fool dared to unearth the living grave of the Sect Master of the Heaven Prayers Sect?!"

"Though the Heaven Prayers Sect may be in decline, their Sect Master is still a being of the True Immortal Realm!"

At the rear mountain of the Heaven Prayers Sect, Xiang Ziyu placed the last damaged treasure into his Qiankun Bag and looked toward the distant figure ascending into the sky, a glint of excitement flashing in his eyes.

He turned around and flew toward the figure’s location. After all, the vast mountain containing the living grave of the Heaven Prayers Sect Master was situated in the rear part of the mountain range, not too far from where he stood.

Although the Heaven Prayers Sect Master had been in deep slumber, he seemed aware of everything that had unfolded within the sect. Or perhaps, in the very moment he emerged from his living grave, he immediately understood it all!

As the Sect Master ascended, the Heaven Prayers Sect—which by now was little more than a smoldering wasteland—began to shake furiously. High above, countless clouds of tribulation gathered in the sky.

At the same time, an overwhelming pressure, as though it would crush the entire world, descended upon them.

Cao Zhen had once assisted the Five Sounds Sect in enduring their Sect Tribulation, but the pressure emanating from that event paled in comparison to the terrifying might exuding from the tribulation clouds before him now.

He even felt as though the Heavenly Dao itself was consumed by boundless rage. He could sense that Heaven was not merely intent on obliterating the Heaven Prayers Sect Master who had suddenly flown out—it intended to wipe every living being in this place from existence, to annihilate everything within the Heaven Prayers Sect.

In this area, there were several cultivators who had reached the very limits of the Golden Core Period. They had long become accustomed to considering themselves the strongest in all the land, and faintly, an aura of peerless arrogance had settled over them.

But at this moment, they felt smaller and more insignificant than ever before.

The Heaven Prayers Sect Master, sensing the crushing weight of the Heavenly Dao and the effects of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man within his own body, raised his head to gaze toward the heavens. On his pale, emaciated face, a strange smile appeared. It was as if he were muttering to himself—or perhaps posing a challenge—as he began to speak in a low voice.

"Once, our Heaven Prayers Sect followed the Heavenly Dao. We prayed to the Heavenly Dao, harnessed its power, and carried out its bidding. But what was the result? The Heaven Prayers Sect still had to endure the Sect Tribulation, suffering the same trials faced by every other Great Teaching.

Even worse, when we reached a certain point in our cultivation, we could no longer borrow power from the Heavenly Dao!

This kind of Heavenly Dao—why should we continue to follow it? That’s why we stopped praying to Heaven. Even though the Heaven Prayers Sect has been destroyed today, we prefer destruction to living on in subservience. Because you—traitorous Heaven!—when we reached a certain level of power, we were confined, unable to advance further and denied the power of the Heavenly Dao. In the end, we were doomed to defeat beneath the Sect Tribulation, just like the Heaven Prayers Sect of the previous era!"

The Sect Master’s voice was not loud, but his steady tone echoed throughout the entire Heaven Prayers Sect, reaching the ears of everyone who remained.

Cao Zhen froze, stunned. What did the Sect Master’s words mean? Did it mean that the Heaven Prayers Sect once helped the Heavenly Dao in some way? And that, after reaching a certain level of cultivation, they could no longer borrow its power?

Was that what he meant?

Before Cao Zhen could fully process this, the Sect Master’s voice resounded once again.

"You want to kill me with the Five Decays of Heaven and Man? If I am to die, it won’t be at your hands!"

In the next instant, a surge of energy erupted from within the Sect Master’s body. Endless Demonic Qi poured forth, shrouding the entire Heaven Prayers Sect in darkness. The blackness was so profound that one could not see their own hand before their face. The heavens themselves were entirely blotted out, and even with his current cultivation base, Cao Zhen could barely see three meters in front of him.

He could feel that, in this moment, the pressure from the Heavenly Dao within the void had grown even more terrifying. It seemed as if the Heavenly Dao had been pushed to the brink of fury!

Suddenly, within the all-encompassing darkness, a deafening explosion rang out, so loud it seemed as if the entire Heaven Prayers Sect had been utterly obliterated. Along with the sound came a boundless and unparalleled surge of power that rippled outward in all directions.

The Heaven Prayers Sect was doomed, and so was he!

Even though he was a being of the True Immortal Realm, if he were to die, he would die by his own hand!

The people before him had no grievances or grudges against him, but the moment they intruded upon the Heaven Prayers Sect, they became its mortal enemies!

Since they dared to intrude, they would pay the price. And that price was—death!

The Sect Master of the Heaven Prayers Sect, this True Immortal, chose to self-destruct!

In the moment of his self-destruction, the once pitch-black world suddenly erupted into a blinding radiance.
