In the depths of the Ancient Mountain Range's forest, a middle-aged man was running at an extremely fast speed. His speed was comparable to Xing Jue's Gale Art. The man's long black hair was coiled behind his head. On his squarish face, there was a pair of thick brows and big eyes. However, his eyes were emitting dense killing intent. This was the elder of the Nether Hall, the person who had been chasing Xing Jue for an entire night.
Xing Jue had actually killed two of his Nether Hall's elders. Although he was fine with it, as the person in charge of this mission, he would inevitably be reprimanded when he returned to the Nether Hall. Therefore, he was extremely furious at this moment. After an entire night of searching, he had finally locked onto Xing Jue's location. Therefore, he raised his speed to the limit.
"Buzz buzz buzz."
But at this moment, two rays of light suddenly flashed in front of him. Upon a closer look, it was actually two glowing palms that contained powerful energy. At this moment, they were shooting towards his direction.
"Humph." However, the elder of the Nether Hall coldly snorted in the face of the two glowing palms that were shooting towards him. He did not attempt to dodge. Instead, he clenched his right hand and threw a punch towards the glowing palms. With a bang, the two glowing palms were destroyed by his casual punch.
"Come out!" After destroying the glowing palms, the man no longer moved forward. He stood on the spot and shouted in the direction where the glowing palms came from.
"Sigh. The nose of a mongrel from the Nether Hall is really good." After the man's shout, a young figure suddenly leapt out from the deep underbrush and jumped onto a tall tree branch. Naturally, that person was Xing Jue.
Originally, Xing Jue wanted to see who was looking for them. However, after approaching that person, Xing Jue sensed the dense killing intent that was being emitted by that person. Therefore, Xing Jue determined that that person was definitely from the Nether Hall. In order to stop him from approaching the cave, Xing Jue chose to attack.
"Brat, are you the one who killed the two elders of my Nether Hall?" The man coldly asked after sizing up Xing Jue.
"So what if I am?" Xing Jue smiled and said without any fear. Xing Jue knew that even if he denied it, the man would not believe him. That was because the man was following his aura. Therefore, he decided to lay all his cards on the table and acted in a confident manner.
"Good, good, good. You do have some guts. Knowing that I am tracking you, not only did you not run away, you even dared to show yourself. Are you really not afraid of death?" The man was not in a hurry to attack Xing Jue.
"Afraid of death? In Xing Jue's dictionary, the word 'afraid of death' doesn't exist. "Xing Jue cast a glance at him and sneered.
"Oh, if that's the case, then I'd like to see if you're really not afraid of death, or if you're just pretending." After hearing Xing Jue's words, the man instantly put away his smile and said coldly.
Then, he clenched his right fist and threw a punch at Xing Jue. The seemingly simple punch released an extremely powerful Martial Qi. The strength of the Martial Qi was actually not any weaker than Xing Jue's Devouring Wind Palm.
"Devouring Wind Palm" Xing Jue naturally felt how powerful the Martial Qi was, so he did not dare to be careless in the slightest. A Devouring Soul Palm brought along rays of light as it collided with the Martial Qi.
"Bang." The light palm and the Martial Qi collided and created an energy ripple. Looking at the energy ripple that quickly spread out, Xing Jue could not help but admire the strength of an expert like Wu Zun. He actually used an ordinary attack to defeat his Devouring Wind Palm. This was the gap between their levels.
However, at this moment, Xing Jue suddenly discovered that the man had disappeared. At the same time, a powerful force was approaching from behind. Without thinking, it was definitely that man.
"Humph." Xing Jue snorted coldly. His figure leaped up and left the place he was at. At the same time, his figure turned and two light palm prints shot out again. At this moment, Xing Jue also discovered that the man was standing at the place he was previously at. Moreover, there was a mocking smile hanging on the corner of the man's mouth.
"Bang." Accompanied by a loud bang, Xing Jue had actually successfully hit the man's body. Looking at the surging thick smoke in front of him, Xing Jue was overjoyed. However, at this moment, the thick smoke suddenly dispersed and the man rapidly dashed out from within the smoke. He threw a punch at Xing Jue.
Facing the man that was rushing at him, Xing Jue's expression changed greatly. Because at such a distance, Xing Jue could not dodge the man's attack at all. He could not even dodge it.
"Bang." The man's punch landed squarely on Xing Jue's chest. Xing Jue only felt his chest being blocked. A stream of blood violently surged out from his body and finally sprayed out from his mouth.
One hit, hit. Xing Jue was like a kite with a broken string. He flew dozens of meters in the air before landing heavily on the ground.
"Puchi."
"Damn it. Is this the strength of High Rank Wu Zun?" After landing, Xing Jue spat out another mouthful of blood and said in disbelief.
No matter what, Xing Jue did not expect that the man would be so strong. He actually used his body to resist the two Soul Devouring Palms. Moreover, Xing Jue could feel the strength of the man's punch. If it was not for the fact that Xing Jue had mobilized his Martial Qi to protect his chest in time, this punch would probably have made him unable to stand up.
"What's wrong? Weren't you very arrogant just now? What's wrong this time? "The man walked slowly towards Xing Jue and laughed mockingly.
Seeing the man walking slowly towards him, Xing Jue did not reply. Instead, he quickly used the soul in his body to perform Soul Healing. With the continuous nourishment of the soul power, the pain in Xing Jue's chest began to subside. After his body gradually recovered, Xing Jue slightly clenched his right palm and was ready to use the Soul Slasher at any time to launch an unexpected attack.
"Shiver, shiver, shiver. You can't even speak? You killed two of my Intermediate Rank Wu Zun Elders. I thought you were very powerful. It turns out that you're just this kind of trash. "The middle-aged man smacked his lips and said mockingly. At this time, he had already approached Xing Jue and slowly raised his right fist, preparing to end Xing Jue's life.
However, just as the man approached, the corner of Xing Jue's mouth suddenly lifted into a sneer. With a thought, he performed the Gale Technique. At the same time, the Soul Slasher in his right hand also quickly condensed. It only took an instant to complete this series of actions.
When the man realized that something was wrong, the Soul Slasher in Xing Jue's hand had already slashed towards him with gusts of wind. Looking at the Soul Slasher that was slashing towards him at an extremely fast speed, the man also became nervous.
The arrogant attitude from before had completely disappeared. However, the man's reaction was also extremely fast. After realizing that something was wrong, he quickly dodged backwards. Moreover, black smoke began to spread out from his body. After the smoke spread out, his speed increased rapidly.
"Hmph, as expected, he also relies on a movement technique." Xing Jue said coldly in his heart when he saw the black smoke that covered the man's body. Because the man's speed when he launched a sneak attack on Xing Jue was too fast, Xing Jue guessed that the man definitely knew a movement technique, and it was indeed as Xing Jue had expected.
However, when he saw the man who actually dodged the Soul Slasher, a hint of ruthlessness appeared on Xing Jue's face. Clenching the Soul Slasher in his right hand, Xing Jue began to pour the Martial Qi in his body into the Soul Slasher. As the Martial Qi poured in, the Soul Slasher also emitted a black light.
"Soul Slasher, Sword Qi!" Along with an explosive roar, Xing Jue forcefully swung the sword. A black Sword Qi that was a few feet long flew towards the man at an extremely fast speed.
The speed of the Sword Qi was so fast that the man almost couldn't dodge it. Looking at the Sword Qi that was flying towards him, the man also felt the terror of the Sword Qi. Immediately, he quickly extended both of his palms and fiercely struck at the black Sword Qi. As he struck with both of his palms, a layer of transparent crystal appeared with his palms as the center. In the end, it even enveloped his entire body, forming a crystal barrier. This was the defensive martial skill that the black-haired elder had displayed when he saved the disciple of the Nether World Hall.
Bang!
Hum hum hum …
When the black Sword Qi collided with the translucent barrier, an ear-piercing boom resounded. At the same time, a powerful energy ripple rapidly spread out. The energy ripple even blew Xing Jue far away before he fell onto the ground.
Although he had successfully blocked the black Sword Qi, the black Sword Qi did not dissipate. Instead, it continued to press against the crystal barrier. As the Sword Qi pressed against the barrier, the barrier began to emit ear-piercing friction sounds and dazzling sparks.
Gradually, the black Sword Aura began to shrink. However, the crystalline barrier was almost completely depleted. In the end, it completely dissipated, and the black Sword Aura ruthlessly struck the man's body.
Bang!
However, this time, the black Sword Qi did not slash the man apart like it did with the black-haired elder. Instead, it struck his body with a muffled sound, and the man spat out a mouthful of blood. He was sent flying backwards, and in the end, he fell into the forest in the distance.
"Did I succeed?" Xing Jue said uncertainly as he watched the man fly away and fall into the forest. He did not know if the attack had succeeded in killing the man.
"Puchi!" But at this moment, Xing Jue suddenly spurted another mouthful of blood. Then, he powerlessly sat on the ground. At this moment, Xing Jue's face was as pale as a piece of paper. His body was a complete mess. He felt as if his body was about to explode. A heart-wrenching pain spread throughout his body. This was the consequence of forcefully using the Sword Qi.
In this state, Xing Jue could not even control his soul. The only thing he could do was to wait for the heart-wrenching pain to gradually dissipate.
"Brat, good move!" But at this moment, the voice that Xing Jue did not want to hear the most suddenly sounded. Xing Jue turned his head with difficulty. Not far from his line of sight, the Nether Hall Elder, a middle-aged man, was slowly walking towards him.
At this moment, the middle-aged man was also in an extremely sorry state. Most of his clothes were torn, and there was a deep wound on his chest. At this moment, a large amount of blood was constantly flowing out. That was naturally caused by the Sword Qi of the Soul-slaying Sword.
At this moment, the man was limping towards Xing Jue. The murderous intent in his eyes was extremely thick. As an Advanced Wu Zun, he was actually put in such a sorry state by an Advanced Martial Master and almost lost his life. How could he not be angry?
However, looking at the approaching man, Xing Jue could not put up any resistance because his body could no longer move. The only thing he could do was to watch the man walk towards him step by step.
One step, two steps, three steps. Every step made a heavy sound, as if the god of death was approaching. At this moment, the man's hand was covered with a silvery-white glove. It was the Nether Hall's Earth Rank Martial Skill, Death Glove.
He wanted to give Xing Jue the most ruthless blow. He would not give Xing Jue any chance to turn the situation around. His goal was very clear — he wanted Xing Jue to die.
"Plop!" Accompanied by heavy footsteps, the man finally arrived in front of Xing Jue. Xing Jue looked at the dazzling silvery-white glove in the man's hand and a mocking smile appeared on his face.
"Brat, go to hell!" Seeing that Xing Jue could still laugh at this moment, the man shouted angrily. Then, he raised the Death Glove in his hand and smashed it towards Xing Jue's head. He was prepared to smash Xing Jue's head like smashing a watermelon. Only by doing so could he eliminate the hatred he had for Xing Jue.
"You're courting death!" However, at this moment, a sharp woman's voice suddenly sounded. At the same time, a strong martial energy swept towards the man. Before the glove in his hand could land, he was hit and sent flying by the strong force.
Just as the man fell heavily on the ground and climbed up, he was at a loss. However, he was shocked to find that at this moment, an enchanting beauty wearing a black dress with an enchanting figure was descending from the sky. Finally, she slowly landed beside Xing Jue.
