“What a powerful being, to kill a Tong Tian Realm Saint in such a short period of time.”
Zhang Ruochen walked over to the corpse of the Four Elephant Sect’s Tong Tian Realm Saint and stared at the bloody corpse, only to see that a black evil aura of death shrouded it, which could not be touched at all.
“Wow–”
With a wave of his sleeve, a piece of Saint Qi surged out, dispelling the Death Evil Qi.
Zhang Ruochen picked up a crimson holy sword in the corpse’s hand and squeezed it in his hand, able to feel the burning heat in the holy sword.
In the body of the sword, it seemed to be hiding a flaming divine mountain.
“Good sword.”
Temporarily unable to use the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword, Zhang Ruochen lacked a holy sword.
A powerful Saint Sword was enough to make his battle power, stronger.
This crimson red Saint Sword, called the Fire Luan Sword, reached the Thousand Stripe Saint Weapon level and was considered a famous sword.
“Lol.”
Suddenly, the corpse, which only had half of its body left, suddenly opened its eyes, revealing two bloodshot eyeballs, its eyes full of tyrannical aura as it flew off the ground and pounced on Zhang Ruochen’s neck.
“Stab.”
Zhang Ruochen waved his sword, dragging out a stream of flames, cutting the half corpse in half and flying out to the left and right.
The Liu Li Female Saint revealed a look of disbelief and said, “He’s dead, but he can still launch an attack, could it be that the Saint Soul hasn’t dissipated and is driving the physical body?”
“It’s not the Saint Soul, it’s that Death Evil Qi.”
In Zhang Ruochen’s mind, he recalled something he had encountered before, once he was exposed to the Evil Qi of Death, the cultivator would either die from the rotting of his entire body, or he would lose his mind and become tyrannical and bloodthirsty, with only killing in his heart.
What kind of force was the Evil Qi of Death?
Did it really come from outside the Kunlun Realm?
Unless that black silhouette was captured alive, it would be hard to know the answer.
Zhang Ruochen took a deep breath, no longer thinking about it, and walked over to the body of one of the corpses, digging out the Saint Source and including it inside his sleeve.
“How terrifying, what kind of being is he?”
“Is he an undead spirit?”
Right at this moment, the two Heavenly Realm Saints from the Starcrossing Sect and the Yao Clan fled out from the Hanging Island with terrified faces, both of their bodies injured, and rushed towards the outside of the spatial bubble, preparing to vanish.
“Is that black silhouette really that powerful? Facing such a formidable enemy as the Canglan Martial Saint, it was even able to distract himself from beating the three Tong Tian Realm Saints to death and injuring two of them.”
Zhang Ruochen’s heart was secretly in awe as he rushed towards the Hanging Island with the six female Saints.
At the same time, he instructed Qing Mo to stay on the ground and not to venture to the Hanging Island, looking for a hidden place to hide and wait for an opportunity to strike.
The two Heavenly Realm Saints looked at the figures of Zhang Ruochen and the six Female Saints, and both shook their heads, secretly saying, ”Young people are just bold, with that black silhouette’s formidable strength, it’s not something that they can contend with. Rushing to escape is the wise move.”
“Rumble.”
The small world where the spatial bubble was located shook violently, and then, two blood clouds flew in, causing the entire sky to become scarlet, as if it was capable of dripping blood.
The two Heavenly Blood Generals rushed out of the blood clouds and flew down.
The injuries of the Four Sword Blood Saints had already recovered, and each of their four hands held a sword, and a sword intent surged out from their bodies, and instantly, half of the small world was covered in sword qi, emitting an ear-piercing sword sound.
The Wind Destroying Blood Saint laughed out loud, and each of his left and right hands threw out a bucket-thick chain as if it were two steel dragons, stopping the two human Tong Tian Realm Saints who were preparing to vanish, saying, “Since you’re already here, what else is there to walk away from?”
The Four Sword Blood Saints looked at the thousands of leaves dropping down from the hanging island, a fiery light appeared in their eyes, and their hands moved in unison, and at once, the four holy swords flew out at the same time, forming four long rivers of sword qi, chopping at the hanging island, wanting to break the island with brute force, and take the Thousand Leaf Sacred Core Grass.
“Boom boom.”
Suffering from the attack of the four swords, a huge light shield surfaced on the periphery of the Hanging Island, resisting the sword qi.
“Surprisingly, there’s still a formation guarding it.”The Four Sword Blood Saint stepped on the four swords and transformed into a blood-coloured stream of light as he forcefully ascended the island.
On the Hanging Island, there was already chaos as Zhang Ruochen and the six Female Saints formed a sword formation and were cooperating with the Cang Lan Martial Saint to deal with the black silhouettes, hitting the ancient buildings on the island and causing them to continuously shatter.
The Four Sword Blood Saints were directly heading towards the centre of the Thousand Leaf Sacred Core Grass, as long as they dug out its roots, they would be able to take it away.
“A mere Immortal Blood Race, how dare you seize the Thousand Leaf Sacred Core Grass in front of me, looking for death.”The black silhouette transformed into an ink-black stream of air and rushed out of the sword formation, extending a metal palm and slashing downwards.
The Four Sword Blood Saint backhanded a sword to meet it, striking above the metal palm.
However, the metal palm carried an infinite huge force that pressed the holy sword in the Four Swords Blood Saint’s hand to continuously sink, and at the same time, there was also a cold and piercing deathly evil aura that surged towards the Four Swords Blood Saint through the body of the sword.
“You are …… the Death Race ……,” the Four Swords Blood Saint’s face changed drastically, and he hurriedly gave up the Holy Sword in his hand, his figure falling backward rapidly. After stabilising his footsteps, he immediately summoned the four Sword Slaves and blocked in front of his body, not daring to let the Evil Qi of Death get close to his body.
The wind bell rang.
The black silhouette landed on the ground, hands behind his back, and let out a hoarse voice: ”Since you know about the Death Race, it means that you still have some status in the Undying Blood Race of the Kunlun Realm. Now follow my orders and help me seize the Thousand Leaf Sacred Core Grass, and in the future, you can be credited for your efforts.”
“With your cultivation, it’s not enough to make me submit. The 100,000 year old Thousand Leaf Sacred Core Grass is also of great use to our Immortal Blood Clan, so how can I let you have it?”
The Four Sword Blood Sage retrieved his holy sword that was stuck in the middle of the rock and stared over towards the Canglan Martial Sage, saying, “It’s not a living being of the Kunlun Realm, so let’s join forces and behead it first, and then compete for the Thousand Leaf Sacred Core Grass. How?”
“Good.”
The Canglan Martial Saint was not a pedantic person and made a decision in an instant, ready to get rid of the black silhouette as an unstable factor before it was too late to fight the Immortal Blood Race.
She bit her finger and a drop of brightly coloured phoenix blood flew out, landing on top of the holy sword and swinging it towards the black silhouette.
“Four Swords Exterminate God.”
With the strength of one person, the Four Sword Blood Saints executed a kind of sword formation, where the four holy swords were arranged in a circle, and then, overlapping together, struck at the black silhouette’s chest.
Zhang Ruochen borrowed the power of the six female saints, and with a point of his finger, the Fire Luan Sword flew out, forming a cloud of fire that chopped from the sky all the way to the earth.
The black silhouette was indeed very strong, but, in the end, it was a lone tree that could not be supported.
“Giggle.”
The holy sword carrying phoenix blood chopped at the black silhouette’s waist, tearing open a long wound, with blood mist flying out.
The power contained in the phoenix blood caused the evil aura of death on his body to burn.
A muffled sound came out of the black silhouette’s mouth, and he said icily, “Each and every one of you is a capital offence, and that day, will soon come.”
“Boom.”
The black silhouette’s body scattered and split apart, turning into a cloud of black mist and disappearing without a trace.
In the heavens and earth, only the gradually distant sound of wind bells remained, both incomparably melodious and like the sound of death.
After the black silhouette retreated, the Four Sword Blood Saints immediately turned around and rushed towards the centre of the Thousand Leaf Sacred Core Grass as fast as they could.
The Thousand Leaf Sacred Core Grass was very huge, each blade was a thousand feet long, spewing out a piercing haze of light, and the more it was in the centre, the brighter it became, and from afar, it looked like a holy lamp capable of illuminating a world.
The holy qi was getting denser and denser, and it seemed to be turning into liquid.
“Worthy of being a Saint Pill that has grown for 100,000 years, it really is a supreme treasure, as long as I can swallow it alone, it will be enough for me to break through to the Saint King realm within ten years.”
The Four Sword Blood Sage suppressed the excitement in his heart and stretched out a pair of large hands, about to pull out the roots of the Thousand Leaf Sacred Core Grass.
Suddenly, a golden mist escaped from behind a blade of grass that was more than ten feet wide.
The Four Sword Blood Saint only inhaled a mouthful of it before his face changed violently, ”Golden Bat Poison! Who on earth is backstabbing this Saint?”
“Stab.”The Four Sword Blood Saint controlled a holy sword and swung it out, cutting through the blades of grass.
At the back of the grass blades, Gu Songzi’s withered figure was revealed with a sinister smile, “So what if I backstabbed you? The Thousand Leaf Sacred Core Herb is Lao Fu’s thing, and the entire medicinal garden is Lao Fu’s private territory, so you guys should pay the price for trespassing into this place.”
Zhang Ruochen chased after him and immediately stopped when he saw the golden poisonous mist floating in the air.
This old fellow was indeed hiding near the Thousand Leaf Sacred Core Grass, this “Mantis Catching Cicada, Yellow Sparrow Behind” trick again?
Obviously, Gu Songzi knew very well that with his strength alone, it was impossible for him to kill his way out and leave with the Thousand Leaf Sacred Core Grass.
That was why he hid here and waited until the crowd had reached the end of their fight before making his move.
Gu Songzi felt out a black elixir, pinched it between his two fingers, and struck it towards Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen took the elixir and asked, “What is it?”
“Nine Dragons and Ten Tigers Pill, after taking it, it can instantly skyrocket your cultivation tenfold. As long as you help me seize the Thousand Leaf Sacred Core Grass, after you go out, I will help you heal your wounds.”Gu Songzi said.
Zhang Ruochen really didn’t trust Gu Songzi too much, however, given his current physical condition and Gu Songzi’s situation, it was expected that the old man wouldn’t be too likely to lie to him.
Swallowing the elixir, Zhang Ruochen’s heart was filled with anticipation as he waited for the medicinal power to explode, and then he would first settle the two Tong Tian Blood Generals.
However, after taking the elixir, there was no change in his body at all.
On the other end, the Four Sword Blood Saint appeared dry and decisive, mobilising half of the Saint Qi in his body to suppress the Golden Bat Poison, swinging his Saint Sword once again, and chopping towards Gu Songzi.
This old fellow was quite detestable, he must be beheaded first.
The Holy Sword was only swung halfway, the Four Sword Blood Saint felt weak in the aftermath, and his legs softened, almost kneeling in front of Gu Songzi.
Gu Songzi laughed, ”In fact, after the old man ascended the Hanging Island, he also arranged a colourless and odourless poison. Even if a Saint realm being came here, as long as they were exposed to the toxins of that poison, they would be weakened for at least an hour. Haha!”
It was not true, with the powerful cultivation and life force of a Saint realm being, it was completely invulnerable to all poisons.
However, Gu Songzi was not an ordinary poison master, and his attainments in the dan Dao had already reached the level of a Saint Master.
Not only did the Four Sword Blood Sage curse in his heart, Zhang Ruochen, Canglan Martial Saint, and the six Female Saints also wanted to beat Gu Songzi into a pig’s head, it was simply too insidious and shameless.
Gu Songzi stared at Zhang Ruochen and said, ”You don’t need to worry, you have already taken the antidote just now and won’t be affected by the poison. First, behead them for old me, and after we go out, we’ll discuss about healing our wounds.”
“……” said Zhang Ruochen.
The so-called Nine Dragons and Ten Tigers Pill turned out to be just an antidote.
Zhang Ruochen had a deeper knowledge of Gu Songzi, he was even more pitiful than Xiao Hei and the Wine Crazy Man combined, and in the future, not even half of what he said could be trusted.
