Chapter 165: Han Tongshan

Of these two Foundation Establishment demonic heads, the first was a young man in red robes, stepping on a blood-colored lotus flower. The technique he used was very different from that of Yang Wuqi, and he was also a late-stage Foundation Establishment demonic cultivator. It was unknown what relationship this demon had with Yang Wuqi and why he appeared here.

The other person was a big man in purple robes, with black Qi lingering on his body just like Yang Wuqi. The technique he practiced was exactly the same, and one could tell at a glance that he was a disciple and successor of this demon.

The cultivation base of this big man in purple robes was about the same as Song Qingming’s, both at the first level of Foundation Establishment. He should have also successfully reached Foundation Establishment in the past few years and was not difficult to deal with.

After engaging, the four people on Song Qingming’s side immediately split into two groups. Lu Yuanfeng, at the sixth level of Foundation Establishment, and Rao Xinghai, at the seventh level of Foundation Establishment, had higher cultivation bases and joined forces to intercept the red-robed man at the seventh level of Foundation Establishment. The remaining middle-aged big man was left to Song Qingming and Ye Tan, who had lower cultivation bases.

This big man in purple robes was named Han Tongshan. He had also participated in that great battle in Floating Cloud Mountain back then. However, Han Tongshan’s performance at the time was not as powerful as Gu Liangshan’s, and Song Qingming did not have a deep impression of him. At first, he didn't even recognize him, and it wasn't until both sides engaged that he slowly remembered.

Han Tongshan had not followed Yang Wuqi for as long as Gu Liangshan, but this person had high talent for practicing demonic cultivation techniques. Although he started much later than Gu Liangshan, Han Tongshan’s cultivation had already surpassed his, and he had successfully reached Foundation Establishment first.

"You two, take a move from me first!"

Seeing Song Qingming and Ye Tan charging over, Han Tongshan hurriedly shouted and took out a magic tool that was seven or eight parts similar to the Soul-Gathering Banner used by Gu Liangshan.

As Han Tongshan waved the black banner in his hand with force, a mass of black mist instantly surged from this small banner, trapping Song Qingming and Ye Tan in two masses of black mist respectively.

Just as he entered the black mist, Song Qingming instantly felt a cold wind blowing toward his face. Many figures also began to appear around him, and a sound of ghosts crying and wolves howling slowly reached his ears, making Song Qingming instantly feel dizzy and his mind shaken!

"This move again!"

Song Qingming had fought against this group of demonic cultivators twice before and was already very familiar with this magic tool. He hurriedly took a "Calm Spirit Pill" he had prepared long ago, instantly stabilized his mind, and then quickly released the Xuan Light Armor in his body to separate the black mist, leaping out from above and escaping from the center of the black mist released by the Soul-Gathering Banner.

"Now it’s my turn to make a move!"

Without bothering about Ye Tan, who was still trapped in the black mist, Song Qingming directly released a golden bronze mirror and injected his magic power into it. The center of the golden bronze mirror soon shot out a golden light, going straight toward Han Tongshan, who was still operating the Soul-Gathering Banner.

This Golden Light Mirror was a second-grade magic tool that Song Qingming obtained when he visited a cultivator’s cave dwelling in Mount Yunwu back then. At that time, this magic tool was used by the cave owner as an array eye placed in the cave’s restriction array. After several people broke the array, it finally fell into Song Qingming’s hands.

Although the Golden Light Mirror had a single attack method, the golden light emitted from within carried a trace of righteous Yang Qi, which had a restraining effect on most demonic cultivators. Using it to deal with demonic cultivators now was precisely a handy sharp weapon.

A few years ago in Yangshan Market, in order to raise money to exchange for a Foundation Establishment Pill, Song Qingming almost sold all the valuable things on his body. If it weren't for the fact that the effect of this Golden Light Mirror was relatively single and it couldn't be sold for a good price, it likely wouldn't still be in Song Qingming’s hands now.

Seeing that Song Qingming escaped from the siege of the Soul-Gathering Banner so quickly, Han Tongshan was also somewhat surprised. This magic tool was personally refined for him by his master, Yang Wuqi, after he reached Foundation Establishment. Although it was a second-grade low-grade magic tool, the effect of the Soul-Gathering Banner in trapping enemies far exceeded that of ordinary second-grade magic tools.

The golden light emitted by the magic tool in Song Qingming’s hand was very sharp. Han Tongshan’s expression was extremely solemn, and he didn't have much time to think about this problem anymore. He hurriedly reduced his control over the Soul-Gathering Banner and released a white silver shield, throwing it above his head.

After the white shield flew above Han Tongshan, it turned several zhang large with a flash of white light, directly blocking the golden light emitted by Song Qingming’s golden bronze mirror.

Seeing that this guy still dared to be distracted and use two things at once, Song Qingming’s magic power surged, and the Golden Light Mirror instantly shone brightly, slowly pressing down the white shield above Han Tongshan’s head.

At the same time, in the black mist released by the Soul-Gathering Banner, a yellow light suddenly lit up, and a light figure jumped out from inside. Ye Tan, wearing a yellow jade tablet magic tool, also escaped from the Soul-Gathering Banner while Han Tongshan was distracted by resisting Song Qingming’s technique.

Just after coming out, seeing that Song Qingming had already fought with Han Tongshan, she was also somewhat surprised. Song Qingming’s cultivation base was clearly lower than hers, yet he had escaped from the Soul-Gathering Banner a step ahead of her.

Ye Tan, who had been trapped by that ghostly thing of the Soul-Gathering Banner for a while, immediately had a yellow spiritual light flash in her hand after coming out. After tapping the ground under her feet, dozens of giant rocks suddenly fell from the sky, smashing toward Han Tongshan, who was confronting Song Qingming.

Seeing the number of giant rocks, Song Qingming was also somewhat envious. Being able to use the "Falling Rock Technique" with such power, Ye Tan should be practicing a high-grade earth-attribute technique.

Seeing the power of the "Falling Rock Technique," Han Tongshan below didn't dare to resist it hard either. He hurriedly put away the white shield above his head, wanting to turn into a black shadow and hide in the black mist released by the Soul-Gathering Banner nearby.

However, Song Qingming on the side didn't want to let him get his wish. Taking advantage of the moment Han Tongshan put away the white shield, he increased the operating intensity of the Golden Light Mirror in his hand and successfully hit him the moment Han Tongshan escaped, leaving a transparent hole the size of an egg directly on his left shoulder.

Just after being hit by the Golden Light Mirror, Han Tongshan felt a heart-piercing pain in his shoulder, and his entire left hand instantly lost most of its sensation. After escaping into the black mist, he spat out a mouthful of pitch-black blood and hurriedly took a few pills to alleviate the injury on his body.

Seeing Han Tongshan hide in the black mist, Song Qingming and the other were planning to directly break the Soul-Gathering Banner magic tool in his hand head-on.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Lu Yuanfeng and the other, who were besieging the red-robed man in the distance, had fallen into a predicament for some reason.

That somewhat enchanting red-robed man, not knowing what secret technique he used, suddenly expanded his body several times, tearing some of his clothes, and turned into a very tall, big fat man. Relying on the poisonous blood Qi all over his body, he had turned the tables and suppressed Lu Yuanfeng and the other.

Seeing that the situation over there was not good, Ye Tan secretly sent a voice transmission to Song Qingming and directly changed direction, going to support Lu Yuanfeng’s side.

I changed a little in the previous chapter, everyone go to sleep early.
