Chapter 1229: Chapter 675: Beheading Two People in a Row_2 Chapter 1229: Chapter 675: Beheading Two People in a Row_2 Just as Chen Mobai was about to activate the Blade of the Void, he no longer wasted time, lest Xuan Qi had lifesaving means and too much could happen in the long night.

He directly activated the All Laws Persona to thrust the Purple Electric Sword into the gap!

Despite suffering severe damage to his vital energy, Xuan Qi’s will to survive was still strong. He spat out a Gold Seal, which was clearly his Lifespan Artifact.

Though its grade was inferior to the Purple Electric Sword, under his desperate efforts, it managed to block the incoming blade.

But the Gold Seal cracked with fine lines, yet if it could hold for one second, Xuan Qi would be able to wait for the Escape Sky Talisman to carry him away.

However, at this moment, a faint white glow suddenly emerged at the bottom of his eyes, followed by feeling a chill on his neck.

His entire head had already flown up.

The Bloodlight Shield he had used despite being severely wounded had been split open by the Extreme Sun Slash at some unknown time.

Unaware of this, Xuan Qi was abruptly decapitated.

After killing Xuan Qi, Chen Mobai once again used the Ground Firelight to soar into the mid-air.

Xuan Shu took advantage of the moment Zhou Shengqing’s attention was diverted to activate an Escape Sky Talisman!

Soon after, the Rank-4 Golden Light Talisman deployed by Xuan Qi helped him buy even more time.

Although Zhou Shengqing was already at the Nascent Soul level of strength, a Rank-4 talisman could still injure him, so he had to use the Spirit Leaves Technique to defend.

Then he saw Xuan Qi trying to flee using the Escape Sky Talisman and immediately smashed a Sacred Tree Divine Light from afar.

But at this moment, Xuan Shu’s Rank-4 Overturning River Talisman also erupted towards him.

Unexpectedly for Zhou Shengqing, this talisman in combination with the Rank-4 Golden Light Talisman could form a synergy. Under the principle of gold generating water, dark blue tidal waves swept through the mid-air, enveloped by a heaven-full of golden light blades, shattering his defensive Lingye.

Seeing this, Zhou Shengqing immediately gathered nine Spirit Leaves again!

For a Golden Core Cultivator, what could be considered a trump Rank-4 technique was just a routine method for Nascent Soul Cultivators.

As the nine Spirit Leaves emerged, even though the blade storm continued to bombard Zhou Shengqing, it could no longer shake him in the slightest.

However, at this point, Xuan Shu’s Escape Sky Talisman had fully formed.

Silver light transformed into a cover, enveloping his pale-faced entirety.

Seeing this, Zhou Shengqing’s brows furrowed, and a bright green Light Needle began to condense in the palm of his right hand again.

This was the Heavenly Wood God Needle, Zhou Shengqing’s most powerful attack at the moment.

[Hopefully, this guy only has one Substitute Death Talisman!]

However, just as Zhou Shengqing was about to make his move, he suddenly saw flames appearing in front of Xuan Shu, blocking his view.

Seeing Chen Mobai appearing before him, Xuan Shu’s gaze was icy cold.

“The next time I come to kill you, it will be me at Nascent Soul Formation!”

Although Xuan Shu was pale, his spiritual power was exhausted, and his energy was weaker than it had ever been before, his mouth still refused to concede as the Escape Sky Talisman began to teleport him away.

Chen Mobai listened, and just gave a faint smile.

Then, a sharp and flat blade extended from his fingertip, lightly tracing across the silver light cover enshrouding Xuan Shu’s entire body.

“It’s useless, this Escape Sky Talisman…”

Xuan Shu had only gotten halfway through his sentence when he saw the Blade of the Void merging with the silver light cover with no resistance, slicing in effortlessly, the light cover even being absorbed by Chen Mobai’s fingertip blade, suddenly becoming thin and transparent!

Instinctively trying to take out a defensive talisman from his Storage Bag, but already having completely drained his spiritual power, Xuan Shu’s movements were only halfway when the Blade of the Void had already passed over his neck.

His head fell, and fresh blood drenched the inner walls of the light cover of the Escape Sky Talisman.

Once the Escape Sky Talisman activated, it wouldn’t stop operating. After Chen Mobai took Xuan Shu’s Storage Bag using the Blade of the Void, he saw Xuan Shu’s body, now a corpse, disappear from his sight.

Bright Mirror Mountain!

Golden Wind Ancestor, who was in seclusion and cultivating within his stone cottage, suddenly furrowed his brows and opened his eyes.

He walked to the entrance of the stone cottage, only to see Xuan Guang, the Sect Leader of the Xuan Xiao Dao Palace, kneeling in fright on the cliff opposite.

Being chosen as Sect Leader, his temperament was naturally of the highest order. Such loss of composure made the Golden Wind Ancestor’s heart sink.

“What’s the matter? Has the army of Kong Sang Valley attacked?”

In the heart of the Golden Wind Ancestor, this was the only matter that could cause Xuan Guang to show such an expression.

“Master, the bodies of junior apprentice-brother Xuan Shu and senior apprentice-brother Xuan Qi have returned!”

Xuan Guang spoke with a somber tone and a tragic look on his face, uttering words that made the Golden Wind Ancestor’s eyes widen in disbelief.

Inside the grand hall of Xuan Xiao Dao Palace, the Golden Wind Ancestor who had flown over looked at the two bodies lying side by side, their heads severed, and he couldn’t help but tremble all over, clenching his fists tightly.

Xuan Qi was one thing, but Xuan Shu was his disciple with the highest potential for “Nascent Soul Formation”.

In the eyes of the Golden Wind Ancestor, although this disciple was somewhat overbearing and proud, his talent and resilience were not inferior to Ku Zhu’s. He was the only one capable of leading the Xuan Xiao Dao Palace to continue the greatness of the sect after a hundred years.

However, now his head had been cut off, lying silently on the blue bricks of the grand hall’s floor.

“Who?!”

The Golden Wind Ancestor’s voice rose, suppressed with shaking anger. The four Golden Core Cultivators inside the hall all looked at each other, and in the end, Xuan Guang, as the Sect Leader, stepped forward and shared his opinion.

“Reporting to Master, we have examined the bodies of our senior and junior apprentice-brothers and found that senior apprentice-brother Xuan Qi’s head wound is charred black, obviously caused by fire spiritual power, while junior apprentice-brother Xuan Shu’s head has a smooth and even cut. Although there are no traces of spiritual power residue, it can be seen that it was likely severed by sword light.”

“They both appear to have died after a ferociously brutal battle, and the only ones who could force them into such a state must be Nascent Soul Cultivators.”

“There are no cultivators of such realms in the Eastern Wilderness. Although senior and junior apprentice-brothers went to kill Chen Guixian of the Divine Wood Sect, I suspect that perhaps Nascent Soul Cultivators from the other two sects of the East Barbarians had acted.”

Upon hearing Xuan Guang’s words, the expression of the Golden Wind Ancestor suddenly became calm.

He had also inspected the bodies of the two, and the overpowering fire spiritual power on Xuan Qi’s wound led him to think of no one else but the Baiwu Ancestor of Sun Bathing Sea.

And the sword cultivator who could kill Xuan Shu, a cultivator with perfected Golden Core, forcing him to use an Escape Sky Talisman and still not manage to flee, was most likely Ku Zhu, their sworn enemy!

To be able to cut through the void – had that guy already mastered swordplay to such a fine level?!

How infuriating!

Why do the sects of our enemies produce such heaven-defying successors, while I must endure the pain of the elder burying the young!

Rage blazed within the Golden Wind Ancestor’s heart, but even at over eight hundred years old, he didn’t lose his reason in this situation.

He was pondering whether Sun Bathing Sea was truly in league with Kong Sang Valley, even to the extent of killing his disciples to seal their alliance. Then, could his thousand-year-old Xuan Xiao Dao Palace even survive?

“What about Fang Xuanyang? Weren’t the three of them together?”

At this time, the Golden Wind Ancestor suddenly remembered the Golden Core Elder his sect had sent to the Eastern Wilderness; Xuan Shu and Xuan Qi had reported to him once when they arrived there.

If he wasn’t dead, perhaps the truth behind the deaths of Xuan Shu and Xuan Qi could be discovered!

“Junior apprentice-brother Xuan Yang’s soul tablet has not shattered, and I have already dispatched disciples through the Ruins to the Eastern Wilderness in hopes of finding him…”

Xuan Guang had already considered this possibility, but since there was no large-scale Transmission Array between the East Barbarians and Eastern Wilderness, the transmission of messages had to be done manually through the Ruins.

“We must find him!”

The Golden Wind Ancestor commanded, then his gaze fell on the remaining Golden Core Cultivators in the hall.

The four Xuan Guangs immediately bowed their heads, not daring to meet his eyes.

They feared that the Golden Wind Ancestor would send one of them to the Eastern Wilderness to find Fang Xuanyang!

However, in the end, under the threat of the formidable enemy and considering the need to activate the sect’s Rank-4 Large Formation, the Golden Wind Ancestor did not dispatch any of the remaining four Golden Core Cultivators.

Above Rock Country, Fang Xuanyang gritted his teeth at Luo Yixuan, who was hot on his heels.

He had tried stopping to face Luo Yixuan in combat.

But instead, Luo Yixuan turned and fled.

With a Fourth-grade Magical Weapon in hand, Fang Xuanyang feared ambush and did not dare pursue.

Yet just as he was about to depart, Luo Yixuan stopped running and clung tightly behind him.

At first, Fang Xuanyang was filled with rage, but soon, his extensive experience allowed him to calm down and come up with a brilliant solution.

“Hmph, I’ll fly straight to Mount Chang Zhuan. My senior and junior apprentice-brothers are there. If she dares to follow, even with a Fourth-grade Magical Weapon, it would mean certain death for her!”
