BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1354: The Eradication of the Soul Refining School
Bai Yunfei’s eyes narrowed, “What do you mean by that?!”
“I mean...I can assist you if you want to eradicate the Soul Refining School!!”
Bai Yunfei gave the man a pensive stare as he tried to digest those words. “So...you have a way to enter the Lost Swamps to where the Soul Refining School is then?!”
Destroying the Soul Refining School once in for all wasn’t too difficult for Bai Yunfei given his strength, but there was one thing stopping him—he didn’t know where the Soul Refining School was. He would’ve destroyed the entire place and salted its grounds a long time ago if he did.
“Haha! How relaxing it is to speak with someone smart!!” Feng Jianxuan laughed, “Correct! I can bring you to the gates of the Soul Refining School!”
“Is that true!?”
Items clattered on the table as Jing Mingfeng’s palms slammed onto them when he interrupted Bai Yunfei. On his feet now, the man was now filled with the utmost furor. If there was anyone that wanted the Soul Refining School died and their school grounds burned to the ground, it was Jing Mingfeng. His hatred for the school ran deep due to what was done to his family, so hearing this man talk about the Soul Refining School had invoked his fury.
Feng Jianxuan’s eyes wandered over to Jing Mingfeng, He looked wistful and just a little bit sad at the sight of the two men with Bai Yunfei. The three of them were roughly the same age of his own student and yet stronger than the two of them. Compared to him, these three were eons away and made him feel almost as if his hundred years on this earth was a waste...
The moment passed. “It is, indeed. Might you be thinking that I am saying this for sport? I was, much to my humiliation, held captured by the Soul Refining School for many years before I was rescued by my student....I wished to give my thanks to Bai Yunfei at the time—it was only because of you that my escape was successful. My student feigned joining the Soul Refining School all so he could save me and learned how to access their school grounds.”
Surprised, Bai Yunfei looked to Yao Tong. He never thought that there’d be such a mystery to him, but it also wasn’t a story he wanted to hear more about. All he wanted to know was how to reach the Soul Refining School.
“And you are certain you will be able to bring us there?” He asked.
“Haha, it appears that there is some mistrust...” Feng Jianxuan shrugged. “It is only because I have the utmost confidence that I came here today!”
“......”
Bai Yunfei shared a look with Jing Mingfeng and Li Chengfeng. All three of them were excited about the possibility, but they had to consider everything first. Yao Tong and Feng Jianxian wasn’t very likely to cheat them considering that they weren’t even strong enough to pose a threat.
Though the leaders were dead, the Soul Refining School was still alive in name. And that, was something that dug at Bai Yunfei’s heart. He planned for one of these days to be spent combing the Lost Swamps to find the school, but that would take an inordinate amount of time. Having a ‘guide’ bring them there, though, would be extremely helpful. It was a chance that shouldn’t be refused if it was true...
Bai Yunfei came to his decision a second later. “Very well!! We’ll entrust you two to lead the way!!”
............
......
The Lost Swamps; one of the Three Danger Zones of the continent.
It was wide beyond belief and distorting enough for even a Saint to become lost in. No soul cultivator would dare to enter the Lost Swamps without a safety measure, but there was one area that was without the disorienting fog characteristic of the Lost Swamps. That place was...where the Soul Refining School was!!
The Soul Refining School was in a pitiful state right now. Every student was in a state of dread and the strongest one left to protect it was just an Early-stage Soul Emperor and a few Soul Kings. Never had the Soul Refining School been reduced to such an empty state before.
No one heard from Gu Jimie, Nether, or the grand elder when they left, but the rumors from the continent had already circulated back to the school and confirmed their greatest fears...
Before he left, Gu Jimie took the slips of everyone in the Soul Refining School so he’d know their status. Without those tiles, not even the elders who knew what he was doing would know if he was alive or not and could only wait until their return.
Unfortunately for them, they wouldn’t have any chance of that since today would mark the end of the Soul Refining School...
“Boom!!!”
A tremendous quake shot through the school and had many soul refiners running outside. To their shock, the source of that loud explosion just now had been from a mountain right beside the school...the mountain was gone!!
Those who ran outside faster were lucky enough to see what had been the cause. A gigantic red mountain had smashed the mountain to pieces!
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh...”
Several figures appeared above the red ‘mountain’, each one of them with a powerful aura. One by one, they took off into beams of light towards differing parts of the Soul Refining School!
“Ene—enemy attack!! We’re being attacked!! Intruders!! Ahhh!!”
Someone from amongst the crowd let out a despairing wail!
“Boom! Boom! Boom!!!”
Multiple areas of the school began to explode as attacks rained down from the skies and brought the entire school into chaos!
“Chirp!!”
Several refiners saw what appeared to be a divine bird descend from the skies. With one flap of its wings, it sent multiple bolts of lightning and wind down and sowed destruction to the school. Those who were unfortunate enough to be there at the time of the explosions were killed without mercy.
On the other side, a jet-black tornado of wind suddenly appeared over a mountain. The students there were flung upward with hardly enough time to scream. Moments later and the bits and pieces of the students rained back down to the ground...
The sole-remaining Soul Emperor took off to the skies at once. At first he planned to save those closest to him, meaning those that had been caught in the black tornado, but he stopped when a shadow appeared right behind him and slit his throat...
The Soul Kings weren’t any better. Like moths to a flame, they were lured to the scenes of destruction and killed by the intruders without trouble...
If a Soul Emperor and Soul Kings could be killed so easily, then it went without saying the Soul Exalts, Soul Ancestors, and weaker were essentially stalks of grass to be reaped with a single stroke of the scythe.
It was a one-sided massacre. A dozen Soul Emperors, dozens of Soul Kings, and hundreds of Soul Exalts descended from the skies to land amongst the soul refiners and kill them like tigers amongst sheeps.
In a single minute, the silent Soul Refining School had been turned into a demonic hell...
......
High up in the skies, Bai Yunfei, Feng Jianxuan, and Yao Tong stood together to watch the massacre take place.
Bai Yunfei didn’t have any sympathy at all for the soul refiners. An evil like them should’ve been eradicated a long time ago.
Under Yao Tong and Feng Jianxuan’s guidance, Bai Yunfei was able to locate the Soul Refining School and unleash an army from within the Core World to rid their continent of the scourge.
The army was a force of very powerful people. Once Wu Hong learned what Bai Yunfei was planning to do, he dispatched a few experts from the Tianhun School to help.
It was only after watching the massacre take place down below did Bai Yunfei feel satisfied.
“From today onward, the Soul Refining School will be no more...”
