Chapter 742 - 418: Cultivation Abolished, Dismemberment at the Criminal Punishment Platform!

Chapter 742: Chapter 418: Cultivation Abolished, Dismemberment at the Criminal Punishment Platform!

“Punishment Hall, huh!”

“How about I accompany you on this visit!”

Facing Xiao Baifeng’s pressing approach, Luo Cheng’s gaze was calm, utterly fearless.

He knew very well that this was clearly the Crown Prince Hall targeting him, holding him accountable for the slaying of Zhou Yunqing and others, but it was just an excuse.

Even if Xiao Baifeng didn’t step out, others from the Crown Prince Hall would step forward later.

Might as well solve it all at once and save the trouble!

“Hehe! I’ll be waiting for you at the Punishment Hall!”

Seeing Luo Cheng agree, Xiao Baifeng sneered, stepped outward with his form shifting and shadowing, disappearing instantly from the Inner Sect Hall, revealing the formidable and unfathomable power of an Earth Level Great Power.

Without hesitation, Luo Cheng flashed and followed out, while Senior Sister Liu Qingyu followed closely behind.

Boom!

The entire Inner Sect Hall, after a brief silence, suddenly boiled over.

“Luo Cheng and Xiao Baifeng are going to the Punishment Hall! Shocking news, let’s go see!”

“Let’s go!”

The Inner Sect disciples in the hall, and even the elders, all rushed towards the Punishment Hall.

“I wonder how Senior Brother Luo Cheng will fare this time at the Punishment Hall, whether he will be convicted.”

The crowd gathered in threes and fives, discussing fervently, with frequent looks at Luo Cheng ahead.

“Hmph! Luo Cheng slew Zhou Yunqing, Qi Yu and other ten top Inner Sect disciples, killing to seize treasure, heinous beyond compare! This time at the Punishment Hall, he is undoubtedly dead!” a disciple from the Crown Prince Hall sneered.

“Not necessarily! I heard it was Qi Yu and the others who first attacked Senior Brother Luo Cheng.”

During the siege of the Blood Nether Sect’s stronghold and the battle in Guyuan City, many Inner Sect disciples were saved by Luo Cheng.

Plus, he slew Yun Tianyan, bringing prestige to the sect, and topped the Xuanhe List!

Now Luo Cheng’s popularity in the Inner Sect is unmatched, many Inner Sect disciples regard him as an idol, and immediately someone defended him.

“Hehe! So what if they attacked first, can he then kill in return? The sect lost four top Inner Sect disciples in one go, such a significant loss is beyond his capacity!” said the Crown Prince Hall disciple coldly.

Upon hearing this, those who defended Luo Cheng immediately fell silent.

The top ten Inner Sect disciples were exceptionally talented, each with the potential to break through the Four Extremes Secret Realm and become Great Power Level strong people, the future foundation of the sect’s strength!

To lose four top Inner Sect disciples all at once, indeed, the loss was too great!

When the news first returned to the sect, the entire sect was shocked!

Many elders wanted to immediately capture Luo Cheng and interrogate him.

It was only when Supreme Elder Ming Sect and Supreme Elder Qingkui intervened that things were barely suppressed!

Ahead.

Luo Cheng and Liu Qingyu flew side by side.

Liu Qingyu looked at Xiao Baifeng ahead, solemnly said, “Junior Brother Luo, as you go to the Punishment Hall, prepare yourself psychologically, as you know well, the Crown Prince Hall will definitely make a big deal of the matter of you slaying fellow disciples, and won’t let it go easily.”

“I know.” Luo Cheng nodded.

Between conversation, the two had arrived deep in the Inner Sect, ahead was a massive peak towering a thousand feet high.

Around the peak were sheer cliffs, the exposed rocks were grey-black, exuding a frightening aura.

Luo Cheng’s soul power was strong, he felt that the peak contained a dreadfully intimidating murderous aura, seemingly a den of utmost evil, causing fear.

Liu Qingyu introduced, “At the summit is where the Punishment Hall is located. This peak has executed too many strong people, their blood soaked the peak, their will condensed, gradually forming a terrifyingly oppressive aura, anyone whose cultivation hasn’t reached the Awakening Vein Realm, upon getting too close, would go mad and die.”

Luo Cheng nodded, as they got closer, he also felt the sense of oppression growing stronger, his thoughts becoming somewhat stagnant.

The moment they approached the peak.

Suddenly.

Rumble…

The sky’s clouds surged wildly, rays of light spread across, and over a dozen figures flew straightforwardly towards the summit.

The two leading figures exuded immense presence, the one on the right was burly, surrounded by flames, like a raging fire spreading across, someone Luo Cheng had met, the Shi Huang Supreme Elder.

On Shi Huang Supreme Elder’s left was a thin and frail-looking old man, his hair and beard all white, wearing a Qingyun Taoist Robe, besides his extremely sharp eyes, he seemed quite ordinary, like an elderly man nearing his end.

Luo Cheng wasn’t deceived by this appearance, he felt the old man’s body contained a powerful force, even stronger than Shi Huang Supreme Elder, his ordinary appearance revealed his transcendence.

Liu Qingyu noticed the old man, her face changed, “Sect Master! Junior Brother, the Sect Master and Shi Huang Supreme Elder have come to adjudicate you! Today might stir a major upheaval! I must go immediately to notify our master!”

“Junior Brother, be careful! Don’t act rashly!”

Leaving a hasty message, Liu Qingyu transformed into a stream of light and flew away.

“Hehe, the Sect Master personally came, seems I am quite the spectacle…”

Looking at the figures disappearing over the summit, Luo Cheng muttered a sentence, flying towards the summit.

Atop the summit, was a colossal palace, the Punishment Hall.

In front of the palace, stood twelve dark stone pillars, majestic and imposing, a distant view made it appear like a cruel giant beast lurking there, merely a glance brought a sense of psychological pressure.

At the end of the twelve dark stone pillars was a black platform resembling a sacrificial altar, where Xiao Baifeng stood.

Luo Cheng knew this was the Criminal Punishment Platform, the place for reward and judgment in the Punishment Hall, equally an array, whereby the Punishment Hall elders could even execute True Level Experts!

Without hesitation, Luo Cheng’s figure flashed and landed beside Xiao Baifeng.

Whiz!

Just as Luo Cheng’s feet landed, a purple figure naturally flew out from the Punishment Hall, landing atop one of the dark stone pillars, radiating light, attracting the Heaven and Earth Essence Energy around.

“That’s the elder of the Punishment Hall!”

Seeing the arrival, Luo Cheng was moved.

Their presence wasn’t as grand as the Supreme Elder, yet far exceeding that of ordinary Inner Sect Elders!

As far as he knew, the elders in charge of the Punishment Hall numbered twelve, each with unfathomable strength.

“Why have you come to the Punishment Hall?”

The Purple-clothed Elder scrutinized Luo Cheng and Xiao Baifeng. Though he appeared only in his forties or fifties, his voice was aged, each word resonating like Thunder Sound, striking the ears of everyone present.

“Greetings, Elder Fang!”

Xiao Baifeng obviously recognized the elder, quickly bowing and then coldly glanced at Luo Cheng, sternly saying:

“Elder Fang, this person is Inner Sect disciple Luo Cheng. During the siege of the Blood Nether Sect’s stronghold, he brutally murdered Inner Sect top ten disciples Qi Yu, Wu Taiyue, Liu Kang, and Zhou Yunqing! Not only did he commit such heinous acts, but he also seized their storage rings! Such conduct is utterly unbefitting to be a disciple of the Xuanyuan Sect, it sullies and degrades the Xuanyuan Sect’s reputation!”

“Such grave sins must be severely punished as a deterrent! Otherwise, if everyone follows suit, what will become of our Xuanyuan Sect, how can it stand in front of the Three Sects?!”

With a steely yet inner trembling voice, Xiao Baifeng’s cold and piercing words carried far with the wind.

Luo Cheng’s gaze immediately sharpened; the opponent redirected everything towards the Xuanyuan Sect’s reputation, piling on high accusations, determined to not relent until he was put to death!

Elder Fang’s gaze fell on Luo Cheng, “Do you have anything to say?”

“I…”

Luo Cheng took a deep breath, just about to speak.

“Elder Fang…”

A voice arose as a thin and frail, celestially ethereal figure walked out from the Punishment Hall, it was the Sect Master of the Xuanyuan Sect, Qing Yuan Zhenren.

With a cold glance at Luo Cheng, the Sect Master spoke, “Elder Fang, this matter has already been settled, why expend more words. Luo Cheng committed such an egregious crime, according to the sect rules, how should he be dealt with?”

Elder Fang paused in silence, then said, “According to the sect rules, his cultivation should be abolished, and he should be dismembered at the Criminal Punishment Platform!”
