That pile of minced at was once the genius disciple of the Seven Stars Sword Sect who had comprehended the Sword Intent of Slaughter, a figure revered by his fellow disciples and held in almost god-like esteem among rogue cultivators.
Yet now, he lay there as nothing more than a heap of flesh. The only proof of his identity was the blood-stained wooden sword that had been with him since he began his cultivation journey.
This sword had witnessed it all. It had seen this talented swordsman of the Seven Stars Sword Sect rise from a re mortal. Relying on his astonishing swordsmanship talent, with just this wooden sword and an ordinary sword manual, he had slaughtered the entire family of his enemies, over a hundred people.
After entering the Seven Stars Sword Sect, his rise was teoric and unstoppable!
After comprehending the Sword Intent of Slaughter, he was even evaluated as a strong contender for the position of a True Disciple, a genius with the potential to one day break through to the Golden Core realm!
From a lonely mortal orphan to a blazingly popular genius disciple of the Seven Stars Sword Sect!
And yet, he had now died during a mission, slain by ng Yan, an equally renowned inner disciple of the Green Origin Sect. A single hamr blow had utterly cut short his path to becoming a legend.
His death was ignominious and held little value.
At this mont, ng Yan, who stood like an iron tower, also bore nurous deep, bone-exposing wounds. However, none were fatal, which was hardly a major issue for an immortal cultivator, especially for soone like ng Yan who lacked no healing elixirs.
The aura emanating from him was exceptionally powerful, and his will to fight was unshakable.
But when he shifted his gaze to Ya Ya’s battlefield and saw the charred corpse of the demoness, his pupils instantly constricted!
That devil cultivator genius from the Devil Cloud Sect, whose reputation was on par with his own, was actually dead? And her death was just as miserably grueso!
Earlier, when Qi Ping suggested that if there were multiple enemies, Ya Ya could hold off one alone, ng Yan had disagreed. In his eyes, although Ya Ya possessed considerable strength, facing a terrifying genius of this level alone was far too dangerous.
It was only after Qi Ping insisted and ntioned having a backup plan that ng Yan reluctantly agreed. Otherwise, he had originally intended to fight both himself, with Ya Ya rely providing interference.
But now, the result completely overturned his view. Ya Ya had won!
She had killed a powerful enemy that even he would have had to face with extre caution!
eting ng Yan’s gaze, Ya Ya flashed a confident look signaling ‘mission accomplished’ before swiftly charging towards the battlefield where Qi Ping was.
Because Qi Ping’s fight wasn’t over yet…
Seeing this, ng Yan imdiately moved to assist Qi Ping as well.
However, upon seeing Qi Ping’s condition, ng Yan fell silent for a mont…
Because Qi Ping didn’t seem to have sustained any injuries at all.
In contrast, the condition of the man from the Heavenly Fla Pavilion, Qi Ping’s opponent, was not good. He bore large and small burns and explosion wounds, and his expression was one of extre fury.
His rage was maxed out as he relentlessly chased Qi Ping, but Qi Ping completely refused to engage him head-on. Instead, he used the terrifying explosive power of his Blazing Burst Movent Technique to wage a guerrilla fight.
Qi Ping’s Blazing Burst Movent Technique was too explosively powerful over short distances, making him incredibly hard to catch.
On the few occasions the man managed to close in and exchange a few blows, Qi Ping’s defense proved to be even more absurdly strong. He couldn’t inflict any effective damage at all; that strange, bark-like defense layered with the Blazing Burst Net couldn’t be broken by a couple of his punches, and he even ended up injuring himself.
A prolonged close-quarters fight might have worked, but Qi Ping simply wouldn’t engage him for long, hitting once and then running away.
What was even more infuriating was that he couldn’t assist his companions either. Qi Ping would intermittently hurl a Blazing Burst Fireball his way. This technique was formidable, and he didn’t dare take it head-on, preventing him from rushing to others’ aid…
And so, the situation devolved into its current state: him, covered in dust and burns, chasing Qi Ping, who was just stringing him along…
Coupled with the interference from the formation array, catching Qi Ping beca even more impossible.
“Be a man and fight head-on, you trash! You cowardly piece of shit!” the burly man from the Heavenly Fla Pavilion roared angrily.
He was convinced that in a direct, hard-fought battle, he could beat Qi Ping to death!
So, he could only resort to furious taunts.
However, Qi Ping remained unmoved by the burly man’s provocations.
What use was empty talk? Would he be stupid enough to trade blows with a body-refining cultivator? Did they think he was an idiot?
What truly mattered was using one’s own strengths to eliminate the opponent! Not gambling with one’s life for the sake of useless pride.
Still, this body-refining cultivator was indeed extraordinary. Not only was his physical defense strong, but his attacks were also terrifyingly fierce. Even with the defense of his Blazing Burst Net and Bark-Skin Technique, Qi Ping had sustained so injuries. If not for occasionally being able to use Healing Arts to treat himself, his current condition wouldn’t be this good.
In a straightforward, close-quarters fight against a body-refining cultivator with such high offense and defense, Qi Ping would undoubtedly lose!
Fortunately, his Blazing Burst Movent Technique, enhanced by multiple talents, was powerful enough to repeatedly escape the entanglent of the Heavenly Fla Pavilion’s burly man.
Moreover, even ng Yan had used this very technique from ti to ti during his fight, which was proof enough of its exceptional quality. Even a genius of ng Yan’s caliber cultivated a technique of this level.
“Directing your impotent rage at is useless. Your companions seem to be almost dead,” Qi Ping responded calmly.
From the corner of his eye, Qi Ping had just seen that the genius swordsman with the Sword Intent of Slaughter and that genius demoness with formidable devilish intent were both in dire straits.
Shortly after, both Qi Ping and his opponent witnessed the scene of those two falling in battle.
Ya Ya’s performance in combat was sowhat beyond Qi Ping’s expectations as well. Whether in terms of combat talent, fighting will, or ferocity, Ya Ya was stronger than Qi Ping had estimated. This was the first ti Qi Ping had seen Ya Ya clash head-on with an opponent of the sa level.
“What!”
Seeing this, the burly man from the Heavenly Fla Pavilion paled drastically and imdiately tried to abandon Qi Ping and flee.
But would Qi Ping let him have his way?
He instantly closed the distance, hurling a Blazing Burst Fireball!
With the formation array interfering and his speed inferior to Qi Ping’s, there was simply no way to shake Qi Ping off.
And at that very mont, Ya Ya and ng Yan also charged over. Under the assault of the three of them, the outco was inevitable. After expending considerable effort, they finally managed to slay the body-refining genius from the Heavenly Fla Pavilion!
It had to be said, this body-refining cultivator was truly tough. If not for Qi Ping’s sufficient speed and his usual heavy focus on practicing defense and escape velocity, in a one-on-one situation, he might very well have been killed by this guy’s fists.
“It’s finally over! I truly owe you one this ti, Brother Qi!” ng Yan solemnly cupped his fist towards Qi Ping in a salute, then added, “The statuses of these few individuals are not low. Although according to the battle agreents between our sects, Foundation Establishnt stage cultivators won’t get involved, we still need to avoid any potential risks!”
“Agreed!” Qi Ping naturally had no objection to this. He was more than eager to leave this place right now!
ng Yan then gathered the weapons and storage pouches from the ground, and he and Qi Ping swiftly departed.
Thus, the plan of the three great sects’ geniuses to jointly ambush ng Yan had not only completely failed, but all three had also perished!
Ending up like this could only be blad on their excessive arrogance. Knowing there was a formation array, they still dared to enter. Otherwise, they might not have lacked an opportunity to escape.
Of course, the fundantal reason for their deaths was the appearance of a piece not on the chessboard by ng Yan’s side.
When the news of the shattering of these three individuals’ life tablets reached their respective sects, it imdiately stirred up considerable waves.
Even a lofty Golden Core stage cultivator couldn’t help but frown. The result differed too greatly from their estimations. Could it be that so unexpected change had occurred in Green Stone County?
Not long after Qi Ping and the others left, a figure in cyan robes, holding a blood-stained longsword, arrived at the scene.
This person was Lin Qingshu, who had hurried over. Fresh blood stained her clothes and sword, clearly indicating she had just been through a fierce battle.
She wasn’t familiar with ng Yan, but she had received similar information and could guess he might be in danger because of it. So, she had rushed over, intending to join forces with ng Yan to eliminate all those who dared to covet Green Stone County.
Unfortunately, she had been intercepted. Only after a bloody battle did she manage to arrive here.
And upon arrival, she found the fight was already over?
Especially when she saw the three destroyed corpses on the ground, she couldn’t help but be montarily stunned.
Although the scene had been disturbed, the residual auras still allowed for a rough identification of the three deceased. It was precisely because of this that Lin Qingshu was so shocked.
“These three… were all killed by ng Yan!?”
