Martial artists below the Great Circulation should be safe; she won’t care about them,\" Lou Yi said gravely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the past two days, he used his Disguise Talent to cautiously follow the female Daoist, deducing her methods for finding people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he would also collect some energy along the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The energy point approaches five thousand, and the Axe Skill is not far from breaking through to the next level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even if it breaks through, he’s not confident about fighting the female Daoist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saving the lives of his companions is the most he can manage right now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thoughts whirling in Lou Yi’s mind, he then shared a cultivation technique he obtained earlier, \"Qi Locking Technique,\" with Wei Youdao’s group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kind of technique for concealing qi and blood is extremely rare and precious, something even people like Wei Youdao haven’t seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group began practicing the Qi Locking Technique on the spot and discovered a noticeable decrease in their qi and blood levels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Youdao and the others temporarily lowered to the Great Circulation level, believing more time would reduce their qi and blood intensity even further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only Shi Caifeng, lacking martial experience, couldn’t grasp the essentials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will hide elsewhere, can’t drag you all down!\" Shi Caifeng, being decisive, left abruptly upon realizing her struggle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Drag it out a bit; this Immortal Master can’t stick with us forever,\" Wei Youdao, with much experience, speculated that the female Daoist wouldn’t linger long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite his words, Old Man Shi and Lou Yi, still uneasy, left with Shi Caifeng to a further concealed underground location.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elsewhere, the female Daoist continued meticulously searching the city for high-level martial artists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A floating Qi Blood Talisman hovered above an abandoned nunnery, suddenly glowing much brighter than ever before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A big catch!\" The female Daoist’s eyes flickered with sharp light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A red talisman paper appeared suddenly between her slender, white fingers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thrown into the air, it burst into flames without wind, transforming into a vague firebird with a length of ten meters, rushing towards a part of the nunnery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Boom!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wooden house was instantly engulfed in the blazing fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Whoosh whoosh whoosh!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several figures rushed out, each exuding a powerful aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A middle-aged man, face full of curly beard, wielding a large silver saber, his body emanating a faint white True Strength, recognized as Dragon-slaying Saber Song Qijun, Martial Artist of Lian City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A woman clad in a scarlet cloak with a silver floral headpiece, her appearance stunning, a small slender sword hanging by her waist, is One Sword Immortal Hu Niangzi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The third is an old man with graying hair, his robust frame comparable to a bear, possessing huge dark red fleshy palms nearly twice the size of an average person’s, seemingly emitting white steam constantly, known as Iron Palm Invincible Liu Dalong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fourth is bare-chested, revealing iron-like bulging muscles, holding a child-sized golden melon with one hand, is Overlord Chu Feng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The four martial artists, hiding together, were discovered by the female Daoist!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s fight her!\" Chu Feng roared angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s right, the four of us together might be able to kill her!\" Hu Niangzi also drew her waist sword, eyes full of killing intent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other two martial artists didn’t speak but decisively revealed their weapons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The martial artists are the pinnacle of Wangjiang County’s martial world, each reaching this realm has an inherent pride, unwilling to easily bow to others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, they knew surrendering is useless; this female Daoist is a killing maniac.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Overestimating yourselves,\" the female Daoist mocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She raised her sleeve, and the silver light shot out, faster than the fastest arrow in the mortal world by unknown multiples!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll hold it back!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hu Niangzi shouted sharply, her figure rushed up to the sky, garments fluttering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her True Strength overloading, surpassing usual speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The slender sword in her hand stabbed in a direction more than ten times almost instantaneously, nearly turning into an illusion!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Clang clang clang clang!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The clear metallic clash sounded, akin to a torrential downpour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The flying little sword shot by the female Daoist was surprisingly entangled by Hu Niangzi’s strength, unable to break free temporarily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Die!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Overlord Chu Feng charged recklessly forward, expression resolute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every step left a deep pit on the ground, approaching he lifted two huge golden melons, smashing towards the female Daoist recklessly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Whoosh!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The golden melon weighed a hundred pounds, the breaking air sound urgent and heavy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if there were a small mountain ahead, he would smash it apart!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, the female Daoist swiftly tossed out a red talisman paper at incredible speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Muttering incantations, the talisman paper turned into a large firebird, about to engulf the approaching Chu Feng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Cloud Flipping Palm!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Dalong, beside Chu Feng, decisively took action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His body was like a pine tree, waist like a strong bow, hair and beard all spread, eyes round and wide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his oversized Iron Palms glowing red-black, he fiercely thrust them toward the firebird!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Boom!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Directed by powerful True Strength, a large stream of white air condensed in front of his palms, surging like a flood releasing from a gate, engulfing the firebird entirely!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking the opportunity, Chu Feng advanced to the female Daoist, slamming down the gold melons overhead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The female Daoist’s face remained unchanged, with indifference.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just a wave of her hand, an invisible wall of air formed before her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Bang!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two golden melons were halted mid-air, their immense force fully absorbed by the air wall, unable to proceed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then, her expression changed, and she leaned her body back sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Sss!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A finger-thick white light grazed past her neck, leaving a distinct blood mark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Opposite, seven or eight meters away, Dragon-slaying Saber Song Qijun had blood spilling from his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His left hand raised, pointing at the female Daoist with two fingers, eyes filled with regret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the martial artist closest in cultivation to Meng Konghua.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He forcefully unleashed a True Strength beyond his limits, almost piercing the female Daoist’s throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was so close.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, Song Qijun’s cultivation hadn’t reached that level, unable to summon a second True Strength, and the female Daoist surely anticipated this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The female Daoist’s perpetual indifference finally vanished, her eyes revealing immense anger and killing intent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You ants have successfully angered me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She made complex gestures on the spot, seemingly reciting something rapidly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The silver light just entangled by Hu Niangzi accelerated immensely, piercing through Hu Niangzi’s abdomen with a ’puff’ sound, continuing to shoot toward Song Qijun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Qijun held the silver saber, the saber energy extending three feet from the blade, weaving a dense net before him, clanging and entangling with the silver light, preventing the small silver sword’s penetration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet the silver sword refused to battle Song Qijun further, diverting toward Iron Palm Invincible Liu Dalong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Dalong initially managed to barely block the firebird using True Strength-driven air currents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disturbed by the silver sword, his efforts faltered, the white air currents slowed, subsequently overwhelmed by the firebird.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He screamed in agony, instantly becoming a burning, fiery figure, horrifically tragic!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>```\u003C\u002Fp>",1257,"2026-05-30T02:45:59.888Z","2026-06-01T04:30:04.667Z",1,"novelbin.me","cd192d75661dd1aa509342cf070f620c1fc1fd747d61f8190f475c42bd5012ac","becoming-a-saint-by-touching-corpses-chapter-229","becoming-a-saint-by-touching-corpses-chapter-227",784,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbecoming-a-saint-by-touching-corpses-cover.jpg"]
