137: A devastating blow

Opening the map, he filtered out some target islands belonging to the Xuantian Hall, marking roughly 30 of them.

The next step was to purchase some Fixed-point Teleportation Talismans, ensuring coverage for these 30 or so islands.

Since he was soft-hearted, he needed to deploy the most meticulous plan and complete the Island Massacre Operation as quickly as possible.

He also had to prepare for the arrival of Saint Realm experts, and definitely more than one, as everyone in the Endless Sea Region now knew he possessed the Power to Slaughter Saints.

The opponents weren't foolish enough to only send one Saint rank expert to intercept him.

Unless it was a High-rank Saint Realm expert, but when he communicated with Su Yuexin, she explicitly stated that the Lower Four Domains of the Endless Sea Region did not have any Saint rank experts above the third transition of the Saint rank.

Those people had long since entered Higher Sea Regions or other Planes, as the resources in the Lower Four Domains were insufficient for their advancement in Cultivation.

In this situation, as long as everything was arranged properly, he would be fine.

With a decision made, Ji Mo immediately headed toward Rising Sun Island and landed.

Rising Sun Island was considered a medium-sized island, and it contained a large city covering an area of several hundred li.

This foundation was built up over thousands or tens of thousands of years, and as the population grew, the city continued to expand.

Ji Mo walked into the city, aiming straight for the City Lord's Mansion inside. From a distance, he could see teams of Disciples wearing Xuantian Hall uniforms patrolling.

Just along this route, Ji Mo roughly estimated that there were already thousands of Xuantian Hall Disciples, not counting the exact number of people residing within the City Lord's Mansion.

Standing a few li outside the mansion, Ji Mo sensed that the strongest person in the city was probably only at the level of Strategist Wen.

After gathering information, the next step was to go to the Chamber of Commerce. Entering the Chamber of Commerce, he swept up all the Teleportation Scrolls connecting to the 30-plus islands he had preset.

With everything prepared, it was time to act.

Immediately, he stopped concealing his aura. The towering pressure shattered the clouds, and the heaven and earth creation bell floated out.

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

Three consecutive earth-shaking bell chimes echoed throughout the entire Rising Sun Island.

Everyone on the island was drawn by the bell chimes, whether they were on the streets, fighting, undergoing trials, or residing in other areas of the island... they all looked up toward the region where the chimes originated.

"I am Ji Mo. The Xuantian Hall, for its own gain, leaked my information to the Brotherhood Alliance and the Three Saints Sect. This is a path leading to death!"

"I have come to this island today specifically to wipe out the Xuantian Hall and massacre the island."

"I am kind-hearted, so I am giving all unrelated personnel the time it takes to drink a cup of tea to evacuate this place.

After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, I will destroy this city without mercy!"

After speaking, Ji Mo remained silent, floating in the air and looking down upon the people in the city.

However, the light from the heaven and earth creation bell grew deeper and darker, and its pressure became increasingly terrifying.

The people of Rising Sun Island immediately erupted in chaos!

"Is that the Ji Mo I'm thinking of?"

"They say that Ruthless Person Ji Mo has a bell-shaped weapon; it must be him."

"Why are we still dawdling here? Hurry up and run! That's Ji Mo, who possesses the strength to destroy the Sea Dragon Clan. Is destroying Rising Sun Island difficult for him?"

"Heh, someone who hasn't even achieved sainthood dares to dream of massacring an island? What a joke! You can be afraid, but I am not. I want to see how this brat gets killed by the Xuantian Hall."

The people in the city were discussing animatedly. Some were afraid, some were not, but most people still feared Ji Mo's reputation and chose to flee.

Furthermore, the clever ones had already chosen to leave the city or depart via the teleportation array.

Other powers within the city immediately contacted their superiors or sent messages to their headquarters.

Aside from a handful of rival forces and allies of the Xuantian Hall, most received replies instructing them to evacuate immediately and temporarily avoid getting involved in these matters.

The City Lord's Mansion was located in the center of the entire Rising Sun Island. Zhang Hen, currently seated in the main hall of the mansion, had a grim expression mixed with fear.

The hundreds of thousands of Void Shattering Realm experts below him also looked terrible, their legs trembling.

"Island Master, has the Sect replied?"

"The Sect instructed us to activate the City Lord's Mansion Grand Array and defend with all our might. Two Deputy Sect Masters are already on their way to provide support."

"That's wonderful! Both Deputy Sect Masters have Saint rank cultivation bases. They will definitely be able to slay this Ji Mo."

"Wonderful? Do you think we can hold out until the Deputy Sect Masters arrive?"

"Island Master, the only option now is to recall all Disciples on the island and fully defend the City Lord's Mansion Grand Array."

"It must be so. Wang Hu, go issue the Mobilization Order and recall all Disciples of Rising Sun Island to return."

Everyone was in motion, and Ji Mo was not idle either. He continuously sent Activation Seals toward the heaven and earth creation bell, which had long since finished gathering power.

With just a thought from Ji Mo, it was enough to unleash a terrifying, earth-shattering strike that could cause mountains to collapse and the ground to split.

Since the heaven and earth creation bell advanced, Ji Mo had not yet fully utilized it, so he was quite looking forward to this strike.

After Ji Mo made his announcement, it wasn't that no one came up to cause him trouble. One must know that the Endless Sea Region had no shortage of various Fanatics.

"You little brat, how dare you spout nonsense in front of your Elder Brother? Today, your Elder Brother will teach you how to behave."

This fierce-looking big man was a master of the Void Shattering Realm, and was somewhat famous in this area.

He had recently returned from an exploration of a Secret Realm, his cultivation base having advanced another level, and he had not yet heard of Ji Mo's reputation.

Seeing that Ji Mo's cultivation base was also the Void Shattering Realm, he figured killing Ji Mo would establish his authority and elevate his reputation. Unfortunately, he chose the wrong target.

Ji Mo shook his head and sighed, "There are always people who aren't afraid of death."

With a casual Instant Burst strike, unleashing the power of over eighteen hundred Dragons, the man who was still charging toward Ji Mo in mid-air instantly shattered, turning into a bloody firework.

Those below who were ready to move dared not attack anymore. Some ran, while others continued to observe.

From then on, no one dared to step forward. Ji Mo remained in the sky, calmly gathering power and waiting for the time limit to end.

"Time's up! I, Ji Mo, risked being hunted by Xuantian Hall Saint rank experts to give you the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, but you failed to cherish it."

"When you reach the Underworld, don't blame me, Ji Mo, for being ruthless."

"Today, Rising Sun Island will become Half-Day Island!"

As Ji Mo uttered his final word, the heaven and earth creation bell hovering above his head no longer concealed its violent aura.

"Buzz! Buzz!"

This was the humming sound produced by the Void Realm, unable to withstand the terrifying might.

"Shatter!"

At Ji Mo's command, the heaven and earth creation bell began to expand, growing to a size of five thousand meters, wrapped in black-golden flames.

It was as if Ji Mo was holding up a massive black-golden scorching sun.

His right hand, which was holding it up, abruptly swung down toward the City Lord's Mansion, tens of thousands of meters below.

This five-thousand-meter-diameter black-golden sun moved, falling like a meteor. Wherever it passed, dark cracks constantly appeared.

Those were Spatial Cracks. Just the aftermath of the heaven and earth creation bell was enough to generate Spatial Cracks, making Ji Mo even more expectant of the strike's power.

Below, at the City Lord's Mansion.

Five thousand Xuantian Hall members had gathered, and they poured all their Spiritual Power into the Defensive Grand Array.

The members of these major powers knew they certainly weren't a match for Ji Mo in combat; the Grand Array was their last hope.

Looking up at the black sun descending from the sky, despair bloomed in the hearts of these people.
