Chapter 1412 - 727: A Pair of Blood-Red Giant Swords
...
"What’s that?" He was taken aback. In the span of just a few breaths, the light became so intense that it was impossible to look directly at it. Then, it turned into a towering pillar reaching the clouds. Yan Xiaobao’s jaw dropped upon seeing the light pillar, especially considering that the key floating in the middle of it was just within arm’s reach.
He took a deep breath. How could he have imagined that the direction he randomly chose would become the exact location where the first key appeared?
At the same time, the appearance of the pillar of light caused Xue Mei and Song Junwan to pause their battle for a moment and look over. Moreover, the Dharma Protectors from both sides, regardless of where they were, stopped in their tracks and looked up.
The Dharma Protectors selected for this trial by fire were all outstanding individuals. Clearly, they all knew that whoever obtained one of the keys first would automatically be in an extremely difficult position. Each of them seemed to hesitate for a moment, but then they all began flying toward the light at incredibly high speed, filled with a ferocious aura.
"Anyone who dares to fight me for that key better not blame me for killing them!" Song Qu shouted, as eight tidal waves surged around him.
"Others may fear you, but Zhou Hua, not me!"
"Seize that blood key!" As the Dharma Protector’s voice echoed, it signaled the beginning of the fierce battle destined to take place in the Bloody Wilderness.
Yan Xiaobao shuddered as he heard the voices growing louder, and said, "Damn it! I need to get out of here!"
By then, over a dozen people were heading in his direction. Yan Xiaobao gasped and quickly began to back away.
However, the moment he started to move... unbelievably, the blood-colored key... began moving toward him.
"Heavens, how is the key moving!?" Yan Xiaobao was crying out. At that moment, one of Xue Mei’s Dharma Protectors was closing in, and as soon as he saw the blood-colored key, his killing intent surged. Clearly, his first target was not to obtain the key but to kill Yan Xiaobao.
He was in the late Foundation Establishment phase, holding a pair of blood-colored giant swords.
Seeing the lethal Blood Sword and the murderous intent in the man’s eyes, it was obvious he wanted to kill him. Yan Xiaobao immediately grew furious. "You... you’ve gone too far! I only saw the key, didn’t even touch it, yet you want to kill me?!"
His eyes narrowed, flickering coldly. Despite not having fought much in the "Blood Flow Sect," his combat ability had improved to an astonishing level. Even though the sword was leaning toward him, he still planted his right foot on the ground and lunged forward with all his might. He immediately blurred, leaving only afterimages for the sword to slash down, and in an instant, he charged directly at Xue Mei’s Dharma Protector.
Yes... Mountain Shaking Fist!
It was backed by the Heavenly Dao Foundation and the Spirit Sea of the third layer crystal, indicating he was in the mid-Foundation Establishment phase. Driven by the second level power of the immortal King of Heaven, which was the physical strength of six Fierce Ghosts, the Mountain Shaking Fist was the secret magic of the Immortal Codex. When fueled by so many layers of incredible power, it ensured that Yan Xiaobao now moved like a fierce beast!
A full-fledged rumble, deep and shocking. It was hard to imagine the collision between two people could produce such a tragic sound.
Xue Mei’s Dharma Protector screamed, then spat out fresh blood. Most of his body was already shattered, but it wasn’t the end. His back bulged, his face turned violet, emitting a hoarse sound from within.
He began to spin backward, expression dull, his mind rapidly emptying.
Meanwhile, the dozens of other Middle Cultivators gathered in the area all had their scalps tingle as the Dharma Protector just knocked by Yan Xiaobao exploded!
Bone, flesh, and blood flew in all directions, and the man’s soul turned to ash!
Even as his screams continued to echo, he was killed in both body and soul!
In any other sect, what had just happened would leave everyone stunned and unable to act. But this was the Blood Flow Sect, where cultivators were ruthless and merciless. Xue Mei’s other Guardians quickly overcame their shock, with three of them being the first to fly toward Yan Xiaobao.
Two of them were in the late Foundation Establishment phase, and one was in the great circle. As they flew forward, three Blood Swords appeared, causing everything in the area to rumble. The most shocking of them was one of the Middle Cultivators from the late Foundation Establishment phase, a middle-aged man with a long beard. Surprisingly, he was holding an illusory incense burner!
Incense was already burning, creating an aura that filled Yan Xiaobao with an intense feeling of deadly crisis. As if every inch of his flesh and blood was screaming out to him, that incense was entirely dangerous.
Yan Xiaobao wasn’t the only one who had this reaction. The faces of others in the area immediately dropped.
"It’s Yang Hongwu! Yan Xiaobao gasped, but the next thing that happened nearly made his scalp explode. Around four to five people... clearly stimulated by the mysterious incense, started emitting auras, either from their own bodies or from their bags, and these were extremely dangerous! Clearly, they were about to join the assault on him!
Yan Xiaobao, having a solid cultivation foundation, was able to kill the late Foundation Establishment cultivator in one strike. However, facing three people at once, one of whom was in a great circle and possessed a shocking Magic Treasure, made him feel shock and fear. More than ever, he felt that the older generation in the "Blood Flow Sect" were truly fearsome individuals.
