A massive Foundation Establishnt beast, its eyes blood-red and fangs bared, roared furiously as it charged at Chen Batian's back with lightning speed!
Chen Batian seed caught off guard, his body swaying slightly as the beast approached with ferocity, seemingly about to tear him apart.
Buzz—
A faint sword hum echoed as lightning enveloped the blade, and in an instant, the sword's radiance surged, cutting through the night like a streak of white light.
Before the beast could react, its head was already severed and flying through the air. Its pupils contracted violently, yet no sound erged from its throat.
In its final mont of life, it glimpsed the remnants of the sword light in the air, as brilliant as a fleeting blossom, the last echo of its immortal path.
Step...
Chen Batian took only half a step forward, a slight movent at his temple, his gaze sharp as ever, maintaining the posture of drawing his sword, as if it had never been unsheathed.
"Yanshu."
"Yes?"
"Let's go. It's rather cold here; we should leave."
"Alright."
...
The two walked side by side, moving further away, the path littered with fallen beasts, their heads severed, blood flowing everywhere, killed cleanly with a single strike, without any excess wounds.
A month later, a sudden cold wind swept through the Killing Dao Blessed Land, snow filled the sky, and a true killing star erged, with Golden Elixir beasts falling one after another, their lairs flattened with a single sword strike!
Foundation Establishnt cultivators from all sides were as silent as cicadas in winter, deeply rembering the na of the human man Chen Batian, who practiced the great path of slaughter, the sword!
Even Jin Bao had heard of him the most over the past month, frowning secretly, having never heard of this person, certainly not a scion of a great clan, where did this monster co from...
"Brother Jin!"
"No rush, what's the matter?"
Jin Bao snapped back to reality, looking into the distance, gasping, "Were you injured by sword qi and lightning?!"
The man's face was quite miserable, covered in blood, limping through the snow, shouting, "Brother Jin, we must leave quickly, Chen Batian is coming!!"
"I've been waiting for him for a long ti."
Jin Bao's body trembled, his gaze fixed on the distant snowstorm, where two blurred figures were gradually approaching, a trendous pressure suddenly bearing down on them!
The expressions of the people behind him changed slightly, so riding magical artifacts into the sky, others beginning to set up formations, as if facing a great enemy.
A hint of excitent flashed in Jin Bao's eyes; two Foundation Establishnt experts had already bowed at his feet, but Chen Batian was the one he most wanted to subdue.
"Chen Batian!!" Jin Bao shouted, his spiritual power sweeping through the snowstorm, "You and I, a duel!"
"Alright."
A cold voice suddenly rang out, as if it appeared in everyone's ears out of nowhere.
Everyone's pupils contracted violently, their eyes reflecting a world-shattering lightning sword light, mixed with wind and snow, a sword strike coming!
Buzz—
The sa faint sword hum sounded, Jin Bao took two slow steps forward, looking blankly into the distance, his hand trembling as it touched his abdon...
At this mont, a sword wound mixed with wind and snow pierced through his body, chilling him to the bone, snowflakes falling on his face, he had never felt ti pass so quickly, yet so slowly.
His eyes still reflected that lightning-fast sword light, faster than his own divine sense, not even having ti to employ all his thods.
Jin Bao's expression showed slight pain, looking ahead, he said in a low voice, "Fellow Daoist Batian... what a fast sword."
By now, a cold figure had already appeared behind him, Chen Batian slowly sheathing his sword, calmly saying, "Your cultivation is too shallow, I'm afraid you need more practice."
As soon as he finished speaking, whoosh!
Blood sprayed from Jin Bao's abdon, freezing in the wind and snow, he quickly took a life-saving elixir from his storage ring, gratitude hidden in his eyes, as Chen Batian had spared his life.
But when he turned around, Chen Batian had already vanished into the snowstorm, coming and going without a trace...
Leaving behind a group of Foundation Establishnt cultivators as if facing a great enemy, though now their expressions were quite remarkable, unable to speak for a long ti.
Outside.
Ji Daoxiu controlled the Killing Dao Blessed Land's formation, observing the scene within, his gaze fixed intently on the cultivator nad Chen Batian, a hint of shock in his eyes.
"Such a person has erged... how strange, how fortunate..."
Ji Daoxiu stroked his beard, a gleam in his eyes, "If this person joins the Killing Dao lineage of our Xuanji Sacred Land, he will certainly have great potential, we must not waste his talent, though I wonder what his spiritual root is, and how old his soul is."
"Uncle-Master Ru!"
"Uncle-Master Ru!"
...
As Ji Daoxiu was sighing, a figure suddenly approached from outside, it was Ru Tang, coming to see how Chen Batian and Chen Yanshu's talents were, ready to forcibly rescue them if there was danger.
"No need for formalities." Ru Tang smiled, still as approachable as ever.
Ji Daoxiu stood up solemnly, a bit surprised, wondering why recruiting so ordinary disciples had drawn the attention of an Uncle-Master at Unity.
"Steward Ji, are there two cultivators nad Chen Batian and Chen Yanshu in the blessed land?"
"There are!"
"How are they performing, are they fit to enter Xuanji Sacred Land?"
"Chen Batian's combat power is extraordinary, a very promising talent, he has even slain Golden Elixir beasts in the Killing Dao Blessed Land, with the deanor of a Wild Heaven prodigy, but as for Chen Yanshu, it's not clear yet..."
Ji Daoxiu responded honestly, not daring to hide anything, even as he spoke, still carrying so shock, "I've controlled the cave abode for many years, but this is the first ti I've encountered such a thing."
"Then it seems you haven't seen enough."
Ru Tang seed unsurprised, speaking softly, "Then keep them both, these two are descendants of a fellow Daoist of mine, upright in character, with a talent for refining."
"Ah?" Ji Daoxiu instinctively exclaid, eyes wide with surprise, are we talking about the sa people?!
"If there's danger, lend a hand, I won't stay here any longer."
Ru Tang glanced at the crowd, waved her sleeve, and left, not paying much attention, not even truly investigating.
Foundation Establishnt cultivators were already too far beneath her, even if they could slay Golden Elixir beasts, from her current perspective, there seed to be many such cultivators in the Wild Heaven Region.
This scene left Ji Daoxiu puzzled, these two didn't seem like they had any connections?
Even when facing Golden Elixir beasts, Chen Batian could slay them with a single sword, such powerful strength, yet Uncle-Master Ru Tang was indifferent... it seems the world of Unity True Lords is beyond what his Void Refinent phase can imagine.
He shook his head slightly, continuing to focus on the Killing Dao Blessed Land, most of his attention now on Chen Batian.
...
At the market under the ancient peak of the Sacred Land, in the refining shop.
Today, the outside world was also like the Killing Dao Blessed Land, snow falling everywhere, quite desolate.
In the backyard.
Chen Xun and Black Bull were sitting at the table eating, with four bowls set out, and they had bought so Red Lightning Wolf from the Wild Heaven Region, but now it just didn't taste the sa as it once did.
After Chen Batian and Chen Yanshu left, the refining shop beca much quieter, no longer filled with Chen Batian's loud shouts, or Chen Xun's role as the scapegoat.
"Bull." Chen Xun's gaze was slightly deep, but he didn't stop eating, even as snowflakes mingled with the food.
"Moo..." Black Bull also seed preoccupied, looking at the two empty bowls, feeling a bit empty inside, though they never used to have these feelings.
"How does it taste?"
"Moo?"
"This so-called Red Lightning Wolf, ha, haha." Chen Xun laughed with a pause, taking another bite, "Those two kids should be doing just fine, no need to worry."
Black Bull licked his lips, snorting, there were no Red Lightning Wolves in the Wild Heaven Region, Chen Xun had forcibly given extra spirit stones to the seller to call it Red Lightning Wolf.
"It's been a long ti since I taught the younger generation, reminds of Ji Zhao, Liu Han, Shi Wujun, being an ancestor was nice, haha..."
"Moo moo~~"
As they talked, they laughed, but the food mixed with snowflakes was a bit cold, and as they ate, they felt a chill in their hearts.
Their voices grew quieter, only the howling of the wind and snow covering their sowhat forced laughter.
Chen Xun sighed slightly, the food tasting bland, he slowly put down his bowl and chopsticks, gazing at the snow falling everywhere, suddenly feeling inspired:
"Longevity is truly as lonely as snow..."
