Chapter 53

Volume One: Mountain Ghost Rumor, Chapter 53: Don't Blink

The weapon broke at the waist.

The broken mark was as smooth as a mirror.

This person had been rolling in the rivers and lakes for more than ten years, and retreated without hesitation.

He is not good at fist and foot kung fu, all his skills are in the sword technique. Without a long sword, it is like a tiger breaking its fangs.

His eyes locked on the young man holding the sword sideways.

The young man's right hand was gripping the Feishi sword hilt tightly, making him shudder.

Perhaps...

That sword is a Dharma Artifact.

Every swordsman in the rivers and lakes dreams of getting a Dharma Artifact, but Dharma Artifacts are hard to find and are collected by mountain sects and the Demon Slaying Division. If you spend money to buy a Dharma Artifact, the cost is an astronomical figure. You can't get it for thousands of taels of silver. Even if you spend thousands of taels of white silver, you can't buy a good Dharma Artifact. They are all crudely made, bearing the name of "Dharma Artifact," but without the power of a Dharma Artifact.

Between thoughts, this outsider who had been in Youju Town for several months had decided to run away.

He just took a big step towards the courtyard gate.

Zhao Chan delivered the second sword.

The first sword just had a vague impression.

He combined 【Sword Mark】 with the last form 【Broken Cloud】 of the "Broken Cloud Blade Technique," tried it out, and easily cut off the outsider cultivator's long sword.

This sword solidified the impression and made it truly a sword move unique to himself.

Still one sword.

Not flashy at all.

Only one sword.

Not even paying attention to the moves, Zhao Chan only wanted to kill the enemy in the most straightforward, labor-saving, and killing way.

When 【Broken Cloud】 is perfect, one blade can break the clouds, and the blade Qi floats for ten miles.

Then this sword of Zhao Chan, the sword mark stayed in mid-air, the illusory sword intent filled the small courtyard, striving to kill the enemy with one sword. If he were already a Qi Gathering realm cultivator and practiced true Qi, he wouldn't even need to try it out, just kill this person with one sword.

The blade of Feishi touched the back of the outsider cultivator. His wrist increased strength, and the strength between his physique and muscles adjusted his body to the best state.

Blood sprayed.

One sword cut heartily!

Zhao Chan looked down at the miserable outsider cultivator, his emotions still calm.

So far, he has killed several people, not only without any psychological burden but even eager to try in the depths of his heart.

To be a superior person, there is actually another way.

Killing one person is a crime, slaughtering a million is a hero.

Before Lao Liu disappeared, when this continuous autumn rain had not yet fallen, the two went into the mountains to collect lacquer with the lacquer workers of Xiaowang Village. Lao Liu looked at Zhao Chan climbing up and down, and suddenly smiled, he said, you kid has a heart of absolute love and a sword of killing hidden in your hand. If it were someone else, they really couldn't suppress your killing embryo.

Hot blood spilled onto his chest, holding the Feishi sword hilt, he turned to look at Kong Yanxing.

Kong Yanxing laughed appreciatively: "It doesn't look like a move of the 'Shake God Sword'."

"I used it randomly."

"Haha... if everyone used swords like you, sword immortals would be everywhere."

Kong Yanxing's weapon is a dragon-head broadsword, but he also has research on sword weapons. Zhao Chan's sword intent in the first sword could make him sigh and praise. At such a young age, having such an understanding of the sword, there is no one in the Yang County Demon Slaying Division like him, and I am afraid there is no one in Ze County or Yu River County. You have to find one in Lancang Prefecture.

No wonder Thousand-Household Yuan thinks highly of him.

Kong Yanxing also has to treat Zhao Chan as a treasure, afraid of falling if held in his hand, and afraid of melting if held in his mouth.

The second sword has more to say.

Zhao Chan seemed to stabilize the sword style. Kong Yanxing could clearly feel that the sword intent was "I have no others," "decisive," and "determined to kill." It seemed that facing the gods of the heavens, he could also sweep them away with one sword.

Is this still the "Shake God Sword"?

Kong Yanxing is sure it is not.

It is more appropriate to change the name to "Slaughter God Sword."

Zhao Chan said modestly and calmly: "Big Brother Kong is over-praising."

"Captain Zhao, I am not over-praising. You don't have to be modest in front of me. Moreover, this sword has a high concept, but there are some flaws in the sword moves. Next time you use the sword, lower it by an inch, and your sword speed will be faster."

Although he has not yet been sealed as a Captain of the Demon Slaying Division, Kong Yanxing called him that.

"Self-created sword moves. Zhao Chan has brought us too many surprises," Xun Lan said quickly, "Fairy Bai, what should we do? I have the intention to take him away again."

Bai Yuqing said simply and clearly: "Try it."

"Fairy Bai, Zhao Chan is full of infinite murderous intent. Putting him in your Demon Slaying Division will only bind him," Huangfu Changqiu frowned slightly, "The mountain sects don't have this concern. They can release the murderous intent in his heart and make him peaceful. Otherwise, over time, the murderous intent will backlash his Dao heart, and the consequences will be unpredictable."

Bai Yuqing asked back: "As you said, isn't it more suitable for Zhao Chan to apprentice to the Demon Sect?"

Xun Lan said slowly: "Zhao Chan is indeed suitable to apprentice to the Demon Sect."

"Nonsense!" Bai Youjun, who was held by Bai Yuqing, whispered, "Young Master is the number one gentleman in the world, how can he be suitable to apprentice to the Demon Sect?"

Xun Lan patiently explained: "We hadn't noticed that he had a deep murderous heart before. Little Miss Bai, look at Zhao Chan killing people. At his age, have you seen his hands shake a little? Have you seen even a little bit of unbearable? Have you noticed that he has any hesitation? He doesn't look like a teenager, but like a butcher. If someone like this is not suitable to apprentice to the Demon Sect, who is?"

"I don't know who is suitable, but Young Master is definitely not suitable!" she argued.

Huangfu Changqiu laughed at Bai Youjun's protection of Zhao Chan: "Little Miss Bai, we are just talking casually, not identifying your sweetheart as a demon."

"That won't work either!"

"Haha... your sweetheart created sword moves as soon as he entered the cultivation world. Although the moves are full of loopholes in our eyes, the sword intent is 'I am the only one,' 'looking down on the world.' Sword techniques with such sword intent are countless in the mountain sects, and they are not precious or rare. What is rare is that he can push through the old and bring forth the new with Body Refining realm sword manuals. Such talent... no young disciple in Baoyu Studio can compare with him."

Huangfu Changqiu complimented him sincerely.

Hearing this, Bai Youjun let her go and stopped arguing.

Huangfu Changqiu looked at Xun Lan: "Senior Sister Xun, does Hengwu Pavilion have any young disciples like Zhao Chan?"

Xun Lan laughed: "I told you earlier, Senior Sister Lin Wei was not as good as him when she was in the Body Refining realm, not to mention creating moves... I feel ashamed when comparing the young disciples of Hengwu Pavilion with him."

"Ha, since that's the case, Senior Sister Xun, don't hesitate, I will try my best to entangle Fairy Bai, you hurry up and grab Zhao Chan."

"Good idea, but I don't know if you can block Fairy Bai's Fufeng sword?"

Huangfu Changqiu laughed and stared at Bai Yuqing, asking: "Fairy Bai, how many swords can I block?"

If the answer is not appropriate, they might really do it.

Baoyu Studio and Hengwu Pavilion have mountain sects that are on good terms with them, not just Yushen Mountain. These sects that have existed for a long time have deep foundations and complex relationships. If they fight for their blood, and alliance with other mountain sects, the Xitang Kingdom Demon Slaying Division may not be able to take them down.

Of course, for the sake of a young cultivator in the Body Refining realm, it is impossible to go to this step.

But they will give the Demon Slaying Division extremely generous compensation to make up for their losses.

Bai Yuqing raised her eyebrows and heroically stretched out two fingers.

"Two swords?"

"If I don't leave any room, if you are lucky, it's two swords."

"..."

Huangfu Changqiu said distressingly: "Forget it, forget it, it's not worth it."

Zhao Chan recalled the situation when he used the sword just now and nodded: "I remember it."

"An Upper-Grade Body Refining realm cultivation can kill Qi Gathering realm cultivators like pigs and dogs. If I were Thousand-Household Yan, I would definitely apply for a Hundred-Household official position for you from the Lancang Prefecture. Anyway, you will build a foundation sooner or later, so it is better to use the resources of the Hundred-Household in advance to speed up cultivation," Kong Yanxing sighed, "The two official positions of Hundred-Household and Thousand-Household must be nodded by the Lancang Prefecture Demon Slaying Division. Only the two small officials of warrior and captain can be decided by the Thousand-Household of the county division."

Kong Yanxing held the wine gourd in his hand and looked at the eight characters "Waves of wine and idle tea, lying on willows and sleeping on flowers," and poured himself a bowl, sipping it in small sips.

Seeming to remember something, he threw the wine gourd to Zhao Chan who was wiping the sword body: "Drink, it won't be finished for a while, activate your muscles and bones, you will have to fight hard."

"Big Brother Kong, what if those people go to kill Big Brother Wang?"

"Not looking down on Wang Huan, he has no value now. Since my whereabouts are exposed, the primary target of the outsider cultivators is me, no, it's us. If we die, they won't be late to kill Wang Huan. If we don't die, and they kill Wang Huan, heh, if they dare to attack and kill a Demon Slayer, they don't want to escape from the jurisdiction of Yang County. According to the rules of the Demon Slaying Division, there is no need to capture and interrogate, just kill on the spot."

The words had not yet fallen.

Three people stood outside the courtyard gate.

One person poked his head and looked at the small courtyard.

Zhao Chan looked up and poured a mouthful of wine. The wine flowed through his throat like a fire dragon, and he threw the wine gourd to Wang Huan.

Without being slow at all, he gripped the Feishi sword hilt tightly and rushed towards the three outsider cultivators who were still standing in Nongsui Lane.

Kong Yanxing muttered: "Two Middle-Grade Qi Gathering realm, one approaching Upper-Grade Qi Gathering, the stinky kid should feel tricky."

Feishi sword went straight to the Yellow Dragon. The cultivator who poked his head had his eyes blurred, and seeing the blade less than half a foot away from him, he panicked and hid by the wall of Nongsui Lane.

The other two also retreated.

Zhao Chan attacked to the door, did not cross into the alley, and immediately returned to the small courtyard.

He waited for them to reappear with a firm and calm gaze.

A few breaths passed.

An outsider cultivator operated a trace of true Qi, flashed to the middle of the gate, and just wanted to cast a spell, but Zhao Chan, who was not far away, had already delivered a sword.

This sword is like an antelope hanging its horns.

Zhao Chan took a big step in the blink of an eye, the sword tip lightly touched the outsider cultivator, and then retreated two steps.

Kong Yanxing clapped his hands and laughed.

He is a Hundred-Household of the Upper-Grade Foundation Establishment realm, naturally seeing it clearly.

Zhao Chan listened to his words and lowered it by an inch when delivering the sword, so this sword was as fast as thunder, stabbed into the cultivator's throat, and pulled it out immediately.

The outsider cultivator covered his throat, gasping for breath. Someone wanted to drag him away, but Zhao Chan couldn't let him do as he wished. Seeing the arm grabbing the outsider cultivator, he used the sword again, scaring the person to shrink his hand back, not daring to act rashly. Zhao Chan had to end the painful outsider cultivator with this sword.

Before the big fight, the three of them lost one.

The remaining two whispered: "Wall, let's attack by surprise."

"Okay."

Suddenly seeing them jump onto the wall, Kong Yanxing shouted: "Wall!"

Zhao Chan had long been on guard that they would climb over the wall to break into the courtyard or jump onto the wall to cast spells. Now the position he was standing in was just right to take a step to the wall.

When he went to Yang County for help, he saw the four cultivators who were hunting him down, all putting their weapons aside and casting spells.

So, this time, the timing he was really waiting for was actually the few breaths of time they wasted casting spells.

For him, he could probably kill them all.

If it were Body Refining realm, it would just be three simple sword deliveries.

Two outsider cultivators caught a glimpse of Zhao Chan. The cultivator further away from Zhao Chan pinched the spell, and the other jumped off the wall to entangle Zhao Chan, striving for time for his companion to cast the spell.

He thought wrong.

Zhao Chan threw two talismans, the Flame Talisman was thrown at the wall, and the Wind Summoning Talisman was thrown at the cultivator holding the long knife.

His right hand gripped Feishi tightly, and his left hand pinched the spell.

The Flame Talisman exploded with a bang, the flames surged, the Wind Summoning Talisman brought a wild wind, the wind helped the fire, and the fire became more rampant.

Zhao Chan didn't care about the person holding the long knife at all, jumped onto the wall lightly, covered his figure with the big fire, and rushed forward with the sword.

Passing through the big fire, Feishi stabbed into the neck of the person casting the spell.

Pull out the sword.

Looking down at the last person who hadn't reacted yet.

There is no trace of sympathy.

Feishi sword raised a piece of flame, Zhao Chan was like a hawk catching prey, a sword with great strength, beheading the last remaining person.

The Flame Talisman and Wind Summoning Talisman gradually failed.

The flames dissipated, and the wild wind hid.

In an instant, the wind was calm.

If it weren't for the corpses on the ground and the blood dripping from the long sword, I would have thought nothing had happened.

Kong Yanxing was like a spectator, clapping his hands and laughing: "Good skill! Good strategy!"

Zhao Chan's shirtless upper body was scorched by the big fire, and some places were burned.

Taking the wine gourd thrown by Kong Yanxing, Zhao Chan drank two mouthfuls, wiped the wine dripping from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand, and said lightly: "Big Brother Kong, are these three powerful?"

"Not bad, the person who stood on the wall and cast the spell had at least two hundred acupoints opened in his body. In time, he could enter the Upper-Grade Qi Gathering realm."

"Oh." The young man nodded calmly.

The Flame Talisman Wang Huan gave him was used up, one Ice Condensing Talisman was left, and three Wind Summoning Talismans were left.

Kong Yanxing found it funny: "These outsider cultivators are attacking us endlessly, aren't you afraid?"

Zhao Chan said: "There is one mouthful of wine left, Big Brother Kong, drink it, I still have to kill people."

"Haha... really a good kid who doesn't blink when killing people! I like it!"

"It's your turn."

There were six people left on Caiyan Street.

After the three who went to Nongsui Lane didn't return, two left.

Fang Xia said disdainfully: "This news has already spread, they are still hesitating, really making me look down on them."

"Don't care about others, they are all selfish people. Even if the Hundred Treasure Zhen cave abode is opened, they can't grab it from us," the old cultivator with white hair and beard laughed.

The old cultivator looked at them: "You are all Upper-Grade Qi Gathering realm cultivation, and you have opened many acupoints, you will definitely be able to beat the drowning dog and slaughter the Hundred-Household of the Yang County Demon Slaying Division!"

Su Shen walked towards Nongsui Lane without saying a word, and Fang Xia followed closely.

The old cultivator looked at their backs, full of confidence.

Mr. Pan of the private school leaned against the wall of Xiliu Lane, watching a group of outsider cultivators.

The person carrying the sword walked into Nongsui Lane first, and three more went, and Su Shen and Fang Xia who lived in Daguan Lane also went.

"Before and after, my good student killed quite a few people."

Mr. Pan held a wine jar in his right hand and took a big gulp.

These years.

A total of forty-three cultivators came to Youju Town for the cave abode treasure.

"Yuan Shui Village? Forget it, even if a few people are missing, it's enough. Yuan Shui Water God Jin Zhun is also not easy to provoke. If Zhang Cuicui didn't leave, it would be fine... Heh, my good student won't agree."

Mr. Pan drank the wine jar in one breath, burped, and knocked on the wine shop.

The outsider cultivators standing on Caiyan Street ignored him.
