Chapter 85: Kill First, Then Rejoice

That flying sword came extremely fast. After only a few breaths, the Blood Lotus Sect Foundation Establishment cultivator felt a prick in his eyes, and the Green Law Sword was only inches away!

The sharp essence light burst forth; although it hadn't touched his body, it cut his skin and flesh until they were painful.

At the moment of life and death.

This Foundation Establishment cultivator barely steadied his mind, and in horror, he operated his profound art, shaking up a three-zhang-long true Qi from his shoulders. It was extremely foul and fishy, red as blood; just one sniff made one's head feel faintly dizzy.

The foul true Qi emitted an explosive sound, fiercely meeting the Green Law Sword, but it couldn't last more than a few breaths before making a sound like tearing silk, being fiercely shaved away layer by layer.

The Foundation Establishment cultivator only just caught his breath when his own true Qi was cut open. He desperately turned his body to avoid the vital points of his head, but he still couldn't dodge in time and had an arm sliced off by the sword, bleeding incessantly.

"Ah!"

He let out a miserable cry, his eyes went black, and he almost fell to the ground.

And at this moment, Yuan Yangsheng also shattered the turtle shell with a punch, stepping on the debris all over the ground, walking like a dragon and a tiger, pulling up a killing wind with a punch, and smashing toward his own face!

"Want to kill me? Want to kill me, Dong Shao? I am a Foundation Establishment cultivator! Just you? Just relying on you, you are worthy?!"

Before the fist mark arrived, a rumbling power made his heartbeat stagnate.

The Blood Lotus Sect Foundation Establishment cultivator named Dong Shao bit the tip of his tongue hard, his mind cleared, and he forcefully regained his senses.

Thinking that he had clearly cultivated true Qi and his strength was strong! Yet after meeting these two, he had been suppressed and beaten from beginning to end, without any power to fight back, he couldn't help but stare until his eyes cracked.

"Bah!"

He spat out several mouthfuls of essence blood, recited a secret mantra, and in a moment, his body was stained with a layer of blood light, his skin, membrane, tendons, and bones all turning as hard as refined iron.

Only staggering a few steps, he narrowly took Yuan Yangsheng's heavy and powerful punch.

And even though the Green Law Sword slashed over, it only entered his flesh by a few inches and could go no further.

At this time, the blood beads rolling down Dong Shao's body were already as brilliant as rainbow light, almost dazzling with five colors!

"Die!"

After forcing the Green Law Sword back, he urged his true Qi with all his might, laughed fiercely, and a blood-red giant hand appeared above his head, covering downward, as if wanting to crush a mouse, fiercely covering and pressing down on Yuan Yangsheng, who couldn't dodge in time!

With a thunderous boom, it was as muffled as rolling thunder!

The expanding air wave broke all the surrounding grass and trees, and ripples expanded outward like water waves.

But the blood-red giant hand did not stop.

It continued to strike heavily dozens of times, until the true Qi could no longer maintain the shape of the giant hand, and it dissipated.

And after the dust settled.

In the deep depression in front, there was long since no sign of Yuan Yangsheng...

On a large blue stone dozens of zhang away, Yuan Yangsheng bared his teeth and smiled at the dumbfounded Dong Shao, then sighed and shook his head, rolling his blood Qi to heal all the wounds on his body.

"What a fierce force, your true Qi is indeed powerful, much stronger than the previous one, powerful! Powerful! If I hadn't used the 'Shrinking Ground to an Inch' martial art first, it would have been truly miserable!"

He smiled at Chen Hang:

"However, Brother Chen, although this Foundation Establishment cultivator named Dong Shao is strong, with the combined strength of you and me, it's not necessarily impossible to kill him... It seems our harvest this time will be even richer!"

Chen Hang didn't speak, just drove the Green Law Sword to slash again. After resisting several strikes, the layer of blood light on Dong Shao's body finally dimmed, obviously exhausted and ready to be broken at any time.

At this time, the wild rage on his face finally faded back into the original fear.

"Damn it! How is this kid's Embryonic Breathing even more powerful than my true Qi? What rank of Qi Cultivation Art is this? Could he be a ghost reincarnated? And that martial artist..."

Dong Shao's eyes flickered. As his thoughts raced, the flying sword didn't stop at all. With a clear cry, it whistled over with a killing intent that could pierce clouds and crack stones.

Dong Shao was forced into a dead end, roared, took out a green-faced large umbrella, and released countless black and yellow thunders, booming toward the Green Law Sword to stop its killing. In an instant, the sky was filled with thunder and lightning, the momentum truly terrifying.

This umbrella was his proud secret treasure, named "Three Absolutes Umbrella." Turn it once, and it can emit thunder and lightning; turn it twice, and it can release golden wind and fierce fire; turn it three times, and it can force out miasma and poisonous smoke. Moreover, every turn's wonderful use can move according to the owner's heart, and it is not limited to only being able to use the next turn after one turn.

This "Three Absolutes Umbrella" was obtained by him from a predecessor's legacy, and its power was extraordinary. He didn't know how many enemies it had wiped out for him, and it could be called his final trump card.

Because secret treasures are different from magic treasures, they don't need any refining or restrictions; they are obtained through different exotic methods. The manipulation of this secret treasure, the Three Absolutes Umbrella, also doesn't follow the usual pattern.

It doesn't need the Embryonic Breathing or true Qi of an immortal cultivator; its activation relies on a type of strange stone mineral called "Soul Mother Water Element." By absorbing this, it can exert its power.

Although Dong Shao obtained a drawer of "Soul Mother Water Element" in that predecessor's mansion, he had long since used up seven or eight out of ten in the battles over the years, and there wasn't much left.

At the moment of life and death, he couldn't care about being stingy anymore. He used the Three Absolutes Umbrella with all his might. Apart from thunder and lightning, he also forced out countless golden winds, fierce fires, miasma, and poisonous smoke, dense and numerous! The momentum was booming and terrifying!

But the two people fighting him.

One was Yuan Yangsheng, who relied on his thick skin and flesh to forcefully resist. Occasionally seeing a few thunders coming fiercely, he would use the martial art of 'Shrinking Ground to an Inch' to dodge, and there was no major harm.

And Chen Hang drove the Green Law Sword, guarding his whole body tightly, without any chaos, no matter how the wind and rain blew outside.

No matter if it was thunder or fierce wind.

All were slashed and divided!

Clean and neat!

And what made Dong Shao even more shocked was that in this bitter struggle and attrition, a hard-to-describe sharp killing rhyme faintly rose from Chen Hang's body, as if he were about to merge his divine intent with that flying sword at any time and behead him!

After struggling to fight for about half an incense stick of time, Dong Shao became more and more frightened. Finally, after the last piece of "Soul Mother Water Element" was used up, he completely lost his footing and lost his spirit.

He just urged his true Qi to wrap around his body, flew into the sky, and with a flash, flew into the clouds, vanishing without a trace.

Yuan Yangsheng's expression froze. Just as he was about to use the martial art of 'Shrinking Ground to an Inch,' Chen Hang's flying sword had already turned into a green long rainbow and slashed away!

Only after a sky-shaking miserable scream.

In an instant, a blood shadow fell from mid-air, landing heavily on the ground, falling until his bones were broken and his tendons snapped, his breath dying.

But the Green Law Sword didn't stop. After another circle, it cut off Dong Shao's legs and his only remaining left arm before it leisurely turned into a streak of light and was collected into Chen Hang's large sleeve.

"He was already breathing more than he was taking in, and you still had to kill him, cutting him into a human stick? Tsk! Little Chen is too ruthless!"

Seeing the miserable state of Dong Shao.

Yuan Yangsheng shrank his neck and secretly slandered:

"It's a good thing I didn't provoke him to death in the beginning, otherwise my end would probably not be much better... These orthodox immortal cultivators are so insidious. By comparison, my heart is more kind—"

At this moment, although Dong Shao was cut off of his four limbs and twitching with pain, he was not in a hurry to beg for mercy, but instead forcefully raised a stream of true Qi to solidify his internal organs and physical shell, stopping the bleeding.

"Do you think killing me is the end of it? Ridiculous! You can kill me, but can you kill all the Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Blood Lotus Sect? I'm not afraid to tell you, the leading Xiao Xiao Shixiong Qin Xian this time already has the cultivation of the second layer of Foundation Establishment, 'Size as Desired.' No matter how good you are at fighting, you will definitely not be able to win against him!"

Seeing Chen Hang walking toward him, Dong Shao's face couldn't help but flash a trace of fear, but he still braced himself and responded sternly:

"I want to ask you, it was Qiao Shimei Liu who sent a message to me just now, saying she found your whereabouts and wanted me to help her... But when I arrived, I couldn't find her whereabouts. Qiao Shimei Liu, has she died at your hands?"

Chen Hang hadn't spoken yet.

Yuan Yangsheng raised his eyebrows and shook his head, answering:

"Is it that pretty female cultivator with double purple eyes? She's dead. She also had something wrong with her brain. Just one look at Brother Chen, and she said she found him, found him, and then attacked us. Finally, she was slashed in half by Brother Chen's sword, and she died on the spot."

"However..."

Yuan Yangsheng said again: "What is the origin of that double-eye of your so-called Qiao Shimei Liu? It's interesting, can it see through illusions? What a good Daoist technique, does it have a name?"

Dong Shao only heard the first half of Yuan Yangsheng's sentence and was already stunned, standing silently on the spot. As for the latter part, he didn't hear any of it.

It wasn't until Yuan Yangsheng glared at him a few times that he slowly came back to his senses.

"That is a spiritual eye technique bestowed by the Flower God Mansion. As you said earlier, it can see through illusions. It is said that if it is refined to the extreme, it has infinite and powerful abilities... This time, the Blood Lotus Sect was willing to be the pawn first, and the Flower God Mansion was generous, specifically bestowing this spiritual eye Daoist technique to reward us disciples who came with Xiao Xiao Shixiong Qin to fight for a future..."

Dong Shao laughed at himself:

"Qiao Shimei Liu was the only one among us who cultivated this spiritual eye Daoist technique. Chen Hang, although you covered your face, how could you deceive her? It's a pity, a pity, she should have had a great future, but she fell at your hands! Truly absurd!"

"One Qi Cultivation, one unknown martial artist... It seems it's not just Qiao Shimei Liu, I am also in trouble this time..."

Hearing these words, Yuan Yangsheng shouted unhappily: "What is an unknown martial artist? Gang-Sha! I am a Gang-Sha martial artist! Village vulgarity! So ignorant!"

But his words received no response. Dong Shao looked as if his heart was dead, just sighing incessantly.

"Why are you people from the Blood Lotus Sect looking for me? Is it because I killed two of your sect-mates earlier?"

At this time, Chen Hang stepped forward and said.

Two days ago.

He had indeed casually slaughtered two Blood Lotus Sect cultivators, one very fat female cultivator and another male cultivator who had used the eyeless Eyeless Hu Qin messaging method.

Especially that eyeless Eyeless Hu Qin, which actually hid a fifth-rank mid-grade Red Ghoul True Qi, which made Chen Hang remember it vividly.

"Killed my sect-mates? So you still remember the disaster you caused!"

Dong Shao heard this and immediately let out a cold laugh, his originally trance-like spirit slightly lifted:

"That woman is one thing, but the man's name is Zheng Hua! He is the most doted-upon face-man of our Blood Lotus Sect's Eldest Senior Sister! Since you killed the Eldest Senior Sister's most doted-upon face-man under our watch, can we still have a good end after returning to the mountain?

Chen Hang, you only have one path to choose: obediently become the Eldest Senior Sister's guest in her tent! This is a good thing that many people can't even ask for. What exactly are you resisting?! Ungrateful!"

Dong Shao's heart was agitated, and he spat out another mouthful of blood, bracing himself to speak:

"If you are willing to follow the Eldest Senior Sister, then you are a person of the Blood Lotus Sect, and the grievances between us will naturally be cleared... If you insist on not following, even if you escape from this Huaiwu Cave, you will be implicated and hunted down by the people of the Blood Lotus Sect, with no way to heaven and no door to earth!"

Face-man?

Eldest Senior Sister?

Yuan Yangsheng, who was holding his arms on the side, suddenly felt a shiver and looked at Chen Hang with great curiosity.

And here, Dong Shao was still chattering, talking about the benefits of being the Eldest Senior Sister's face-man, all sorts of exotic treasures, cultivation resources, and so on... It sounded so hot that Yuan Yangsheng was rubbing his hands, wishing he could replace him.

He just wanted to persuade Chen Hang to just follow.

The old saying is very good.

If a woman is three years older, you hold a gold brick; if a woman is thirty years older, you are given a country; if a woman is three thousand years older...

Being able to rely on one's own ability to rely on a cultivation senior is also a beautiful thing.

But just as he turned his eyes, he saw the deep, restrained killing intent in Chen Hang's eyes, like the heavy cold dew of early spring. Just one look made one's heart feel cold!

Yuan Yangsheng gave an awkward, dry laugh, shrank his neck again, and turned his face away.

"Men and women loving each other, isn't this a common human desire? It's called a face-man, but listening to the benefits, it's not much different from marrying a wife... Why is this Little Chen so stubborn? It would be better to choose me, Yuan. I don't look too bad either!"

And while he was muttering in his heart.

Dong Shao saw that Chen Hang was not in a hurry to kill him, and a fluke arose in his heart. He braced his body and sighed:

"Junior Brother Chen, since you killed one of the Eldest Senior Sister's face-men, you need to compensate her with one. Moreover, this is not a bitter chore; the Eldest Senior Sister has admired you for a long time."

"Oh?"

"Don't you know? That Zheng Hua you killed was found by the Eldest Senior Sister according to your appearance."

Dong Shao said: "He and you, in fact, look somewhat similar..."

"He looks like me?"

Chen Hang was silent for a few breaths, then suddenly laughed and said:

"If I don't follow, I fear I won't be able to escape the Blood Lotus Sect's anger?"

Before Dong Shao could speak, he said to himself: "Then please, Xiao Xiao Shixiong, take the first step."

A green rainbow flew out of his sleeve.

With just one turn, blood splashed, and a head fell to the ground...

And after picking up the items left by Dong Shao, before he could even look at them, a voice suddenly entered his mind.

"Little Fellow Daoist, long time no see. Seeing that you are safe, I can finally put my heart at ease."

"This is..."

Chen Hang frowned, subconsciously tightened his grip on the items in his hand, and felt a slight shock in his heart:

"Huaiwu Cave Master?" ===== CHAPTER 86 =====
