The Undying Blood Clan didn’t necessarily drive them to extinction, and when they encountered a Saint amongst the Human Race, they would try to subdue them as much as possible.
Imagine a human Saint turning against the Undying Blood Clan without the human race knowing about it internally. Then, how great would the value of this Human Saint be to the Immortal Blood Clan?
Zhu Qingyi just wanted to take in Zhang Ruochen and use him for her.
Zhang Ruochen couldn’t see through Zhu Qingyi’s cultivation even when he used the power of his spiritual force, and only knew that she was very powerful, not weaker than the Immortal Goddess Flux, if not even more powerful.
“Strike with all your might, and after that, immediately retreat to the north.”
Zhang Ruochen transmitted his voice to Huang Yichen and Qing Mo, made hand seals, released his spiritual energy, and condensed the “Thunder God’s Hammer” Sacred Law, attacking the three Immortal Blood Race experts led by Zhu Qingyi.
At the same time, Huang Yicun struck a holy sword, condensing thousands of sword qi, turning into a river of swords, emitting a clattering sound, causing the area to be filled with flying sand and stones, leaving behind a shocking trail of sword marks.
“You were given a chance, but you didn’t cherish it.”
Staring at the attacks struck by Zhang Ruochen and Huang Yichen, Zhu Qingyi gently shook her head, revealing a disappointed expression as she pointed her finger forwards, and with that, a layer of blood mist like a curtain of water coalesced out at her fingertips.
“Boom boom.”
The Thunder God’s Hammer and Holy Sword impacted on top of the water curtain, only two ripples emerged, unable to penetrate through at all.
Zhu Qingyi was about to strike a counter-attack to completely suppress Zhang Ruochen’s trio, but at that moment, a silver stream of light flew rapidly from the back of the water curtain, and the water curtain was instantly torn apart.
Zhu Qingyi revealed an astonished expression, her fingers retracted, and then, with two snow-white palms, she simultaneously slapped forward, striking out two pieces of crimson fire clouds.
As the silver stream of light came into contact with the fire clouds, its speed gradually became slow, and Zhu Qingyi finally saw that the silver light was actually wrapped around a kitchen knife.
“Rumble.”
Zhu Qingyi flew backwards hundreds of feet before dissolving the power above the silver chopper, regaining his footing and staring forwards, the three human saints had already fled to the sky.
“Among the three, there is even such an expert. Give chase!”
Zhu Qingyi’s expression, became a little more serious, her concave and delicate delicate body disintegrated and turned into dozens of black mists as she hurriedly chased after them.
“Awesome.”
At this moment, Zhang Ruochen was also very frightened.
One must know that Qing Mo’s chopper was definitely not an ordinary Saint Weapon, it was most likely a Divine Legacy Ancient Weapon, and every time it struck out, it was invincible and was bound to see blood. However, just now, Zhu Qingyi was able to block the silver-coloured chopper’s attack when she was defenceless.
Zhang Ruochen suspected that even if Qing Mo had used the origin power of the silver chopper, he probably wouldn’t be able to help her.
All three of them had a sense of urgency from the threat of death, Zhu Qingyi’s cultivation was so powerful that it was simply unbeatable.
Huang Yichen stared behind him and saw that Zhu Qingyi was rapidly approaching, saying, “What a fast speed, it’s already catching up, so I can only use the Secret Art of Escape.”
Zhang Ruochen stopped Huang Yichen and said solemnly, “Using the Escape Secret Art is indeed a way to explode several times the speed, but it also has a huge side effect, after casting it, one will fall into a long period of weakness. If you cast it for too long, it is not certain that, your realm will even regress.”
“It’s a last resort now, only by using such a self-damaging secret technique can we escape.”Huang Yichen was very eager and added, “Hurry up and let go of me, if we let Zhu Qingyi catch up, we all have to die.”
“It’s better for me to do it!”Zhang Ruochen said.
Huang Yichen revealed a puzzled look, Zhang Ruochen’s three veins had been severed, could he still be able to perform the Secret Art of Escape?
A determined look appeared in Zhang Ruochen’s eyes, and then, he took out the Buddha Emperor’s Sherri Seed and held it in the palm of his hand.
The relic, roughly the size of a peanut, took on a golden colour, emitting a light that pierced the eyes of Huang Yichen and Qing Mo a little.
“Snap!”
Zhang Ruochen’s spiritual energy converged into his right hand, then, with a pinch of his five fingers, the fourth layer of the Sherry Son’s seal shattered.
Zhang Ruochen directly swallowed the Sherry Seed into his stomach, and a moment later, his body, became golden, and the sound of ten thousand Buddhas chanting sutras resounded within his body, as a single Buddhist text floated on the surface of his skin, and even more uncountable Buddhist shadows rushed out from his body.
Originally, Zhang Ruochen’s spiritual power had only just broken through to the fifty-second rank, but at this moment, it was growing rapidly again, seemingly about to break through to the fifty-third rank.
The relics, condensed with the holy power of two great saints of the Buddha Dao, the Buddha Emperor and the Golden Dragon, could be called priceless.
The Buddha Emperor and the Golden Dragon, did not just cultivate to the Martial Dao, but also cultivated spiritual power, so the Sherry Seed also contained incomparably majestic spiritual power.
In fact, Zhang Ruochen had always been unwilling to directly swallow the Sherri Sons in exchange for a surge in his cultivation, just like other cultivators who refined the Sacred Source to become Saints, there were many drawbacks, which would limit future achievements, and after reaching a certain realm, his cultivation would stagnate, which was equivalent to chopping off his potential.
Therefore, Zhang Ruochen only intended to slowly absorb the power within the Sheridan Seed, never intending to swallow the Sheridan Seed.
Of course, Sherry Seeds were far, far more precious than normal Saint Sources, and even if there were drawbacks, they wouldn’t be revealed until the Great Saint realm.
For the vast majority of cultivators, their greatest dream was to be able to reach the Great Saint realm, so they wouldn’t even care about the potential drawbacks caused by swallowing the relics.
“Wow…”
The huge power of the Sherri Seed ran amok within Zhang Ruochen’s body, causing his speed to increase wildly, as he grabbed Yellow Smoke Dust with one hand and Qing Mo with the other, transforming into a golden stream of light that disappeared into the clouds.
“What a powerful Buddha Dao aura, could it be that they are not experts sent out by the Earth God Temple, but from the Western Region’s Ten Thousand Buddha Dao?”
Zhu Qingyi continued to chase forward for hundreds of miles more, but after all, she failed to catch up with Zhang Ruochen’s trio and stopped, falling to the ground.
Her pair of eyes were filled with a dull, cold murderous aura, personally striking out and surprisingly failing to leave behind the three human Saints, once word got out, it was feared that there were quite a few Saints amongst the Undying Blood Clan who would laugh at her.
Not long after, the two Death God Knights caught up with her and stood behind Zhu Shengyi on the left and the right.
The Death Knight standing on the left said, “What realm did those three human saints reach in terms of cultivation, how come even you couldn’t keep them?”
Zhu Qingyi said, “That Human Spirituality Saint should have swallowed a Sharizi, and in a split second, there was a major explosion of spiritual power, which is why he was able to exert several times his speed. A great outburst of spiritual power cannot be sustained, his speed will soon return to its original level, and catching up with him again will be his death.”
With that, Zhu Qingyi and the two Death Knights searched for the scent remaining in the air and continued to chase after him, wanting to behead Zhang Ruochen’s trio even more, feeling that the three of them were a great threat to the Immortal Blood Clan.
“Wow–”
A bright blade light, like a cold moon that connected the sky and the earth, flew out from a mountain pass and chopped towards Zhu Qingyi.
The moment the blade light flew out, the entire heaven and earth trembled, as if a rule of heaven and earth had been severed.
Zhu Qingyi’s face changed violently as she stretched out her two snow-white jade hands and grabbed them into the void, and then, two Death Knights appeared in her hands as if they were two shields, fending them off forwards.
“Rumble.”
The two Death Knights and Zhu Qingyi flew backwards at the same time, crashing through a mountain peak and crashing to the ground, splitting the earth with a wide crack.
Among the Ten Sacred Blood Armour, the two Death Knights were both shattered into bloody mud by the blade qi, and their sacred bones were all reduced to pieces.
Zhu Qingyi was also very miserable, his seven orifices were bleeding, his arms were broken and shattered, he was extremely injured, how could he not expect to encounter such a terrifying expert.
The person who had just issued the sword, who in the end was it?
There were no more than ten Saints who were able to cultivate their blade techniques to such an extent, in the entire Northern Domain.
“Could it be him?”
In Zhu Qingyi’s mind, a name surfaced, and that name was also quite high on the top of the Immortal Blood Clan’s Necessary Kill List.
Just then, within her eyes, she saw a grey silhouette, carrying a stone blade in his hand, step by step out of the darkness.
That stone knife was very rough, just like a stone slice, who would have thought that such a knife would be able to kill two Death Knights and heavily injure Zhu Qingyi?
Seeing that stone blade, Zhu Qingyi was even more certain of the conjecture in his heart, took a deep breath and pronounced a name: “Pei Yutian.”
“You were able to block one of my knives without dying, you are considered a great figure of the Immortal Blood Clan. Beheading you should be able to be exchanged for quite a few top-notch cultivation resources from the Ministry of War.”That grey silhouette said indifferently.
Zhu Qingyi knew that the man in front of him was powerful, and that it was impossible to escape today, but, still maintaining his composure, he said, “For an expert like you, as long as you defect to the Qingtian Tribe, I can assure you that you can obtain countless cultivation resources. With your strength alone to collect cultivation resources, you will only waste a great deal of time, and at this rate, your cultivation will definitely not be able to catch up with the other four people on The Heroic Fugue.”
That grey silhouette was none other than “Bei Yu Tian”, one of the five experts on the Heroic Fugue, and the only one of the five who had no background or backing, and who had continuously risen to prominence as a top human expert by virtue of his own hard work and life and death struggles.
“Are you persuading me to surrender?”Pei Yutian said indifferently.
“That’s right, a strong person like you shouldn’t be buried. As long as you defect to the Immortal Blood Clan, before long, you will definitely surpass the other four and become the number one expert on the Heroic Fugue.”Zhu Qingyi said.
The corner of Pei Yutian’s mouth rose slightly, the stone blade in his hand emitted a cold aura, and then, a layer of cold ice spread from his feet, all the way towards Zhu Qingyi.
Seeing that Zhu Qing Yi was about to be engulfed by the cold aura, in the void, an upright figure rushed out and walked to Zhu Qing Yi’s side, and from his body, a thick blood mist rushed out, resisting the cold aura that surged from the opposite side.
When Zhu Qingyi saw the silhouette standing in front of him, he finally let out a slight sigh of relief and said, ”Eldest Senior Brother, you have finally arrived!
