A day later, the news that the middle-aged Zhenren was killed by Xie Tian in ten moves spread throughout Ning Province.
No one was surprised, and the people of the Jin Dynasty were not happy either.
It seemed to be a battle of a higher realm, but compared to Xie Tian, the middle-aged Zhenren was weak. No one thought he would win from the beginning.
People even guessed that the middle-aged Zhenren himself did not think he would win. Otherwise, he would not have been killed by Xie Tian in ten moves even though he was only at the first level of the Divinity Realm. He would only lose so easily if he was scared.
"Once Xie Tian appeared, the people who besieged Wu Shang immediately became Divinity Realm Zhenren!" The Lone Demon Granny glanced at the pale Red Dress. "Now, you should give up!"
"Great-grandmother, would there really be a Dao Master who would attack shamelessly?"
The Lone Demon Granny smiled. The question was too stupid, and there was no need to ask.
Dao Masters aside, none of the Upper Three Realms were simple.
Although Xie Tian easily killed the First Spiritual Master, it did not mean that his invincible realm included the Divinity Realm.
The entire cultivation world of the Nine States was now evaluating Xie Tian's combat power. Of course, the Dao Palace was the most authoritative in the evaluation.
"For Tianxin, he is invincible in the early stage of the Divinity Realm, not dead in the middle stage, and able to escape in the late stage …" Dao Kuang painfully recalled and shook his head. "This is without using the Tianyi Cauldron. As for Xie Tian …"
"Xie Tian …" Dao Xu murmured the name he hated to the bone. "You cannot compare Tianxin to Xie Tian."
Dao Kuang was stunned. "Why?"
"Because Xie Tian's killing power is difficult to define with realms."
Dao Yi's voice came from below the twenty-seventh peak.
Dao Kuang was silent. Xie Tian's performance in the Ancient Battlefield showed that if he wanted to kill someone, no one could escape.
"However, this is different from the Ancient Battlefield. He is not killing, but saving Wu Shang. There are some constraints …" Dao Yi pondered for a moment and said, "The late stage of the Divinity Realm is enough to make him tired …"
Dao Kuang nodded and said, "What if he uses an ominous object?"
"Isn't that exactly what we want?"
The Holy Zhi Palace's evaluation did not spread. It was as if the Holy Zhi Palace had remained silent ever since the news of Wu Shang's survival had spread, as if they had truly retreated from the world.
The middle-aged Daoist's corpse lay beneath Xie Tian's feet. Because Xie Tian had only used soul cultivation techniques, the corpse was in perfect condition.
An intact corpse was the best for searching.
Xie Tian searched very carefully. Wu and Shang watched until their backs turned numb, because Xie Tian didn't even let go of the spiritual treasure in the middle-aged Zhenren's nascent embryo, forcibly pulling it out from his stomach.
It took Xie Tian three breaths to kill the man. Xie Tian took an entire hour to search the corpse. When he stood up, the corpse at his feet was completely naked.
Wu Shang had never seen anyone die so cleanly.
"You, what do you want to do?" Xu Shaoxiang didn't dare imagine that Xie Tian would have such a side to him.
Xie Tian weighed the storage bag in his hand. As he thought, he replied, "These things are useful."
"Heh!"
Xu Shaoxiang chuckled. He didn't think these things would be of any use, but Xie Tian was stronger than him, so he looked at Wu Shang, who was even stronger, as if asking if these things were really useful.
"Useless."
Wu Shang was even more thorough in ignoring external objects than Xu Shaoxiang. If it wasn't for the fact that his Sky-splitting Divine Body was so terrifying that it could shatter the void, he wouldn't even bother wearing black armor.
"Did you hear that? My master said it's useless."
Xie Tian stopped thinking and turned around with a smile. "It's useless against Lord Wu Shang."
Size didn't matter. There was always a place for something.
Especially in the hands of someone who was good at using his brain.
The two didn't know that Xie Tian had relied on picking up trash to kill Chen Feng and then Li Yuanyang at Ghastly Mountain.
The two didn't know that Xie Tian hadn't used such a method for a long time. Now that he was using it, it could only mean one thing.
Xie Tian was going all out and was really playing with his life.
He knew better than the two that returning to the Jin Dynasty was ten thousand times more difficult than leaving Hexi Corridor alive.
"Xie Tian!"
"What is it?"
"Why are you here?"
"To escort Lord home."
"Then why don't you leave?"
Xie Tian, who was busy all around, stopped and turned to look into the distance. He put away the storage bag and walked forward after saying that.
"I won't leave for now."
Xu Shaoxiang looked at his master, confused.
His master looked calm, but he was a little nervous and shy.
What a joke, even his father couldn't guess Xie Tian's thoughts, let alone Wu Shang!
"Master!"
"He knows what to do."
"Oh."
Xu Shaoxiang suddenly felt that his master and Xie Tian were smart people, and he was the only fool. He sighed and looked at the enemy, but he was shocked.
"This, this is the Autumn Leaf Sword Valley's elder!"
"When I left the sect, I no longer had anything to do with Autumn Leaf Sword Valley."
Standing a thousand feet away from Xie Tian, the Autumn Leaf Sword Valley's elder spoke softly.
This was not for Xie Tian, but for the entire cultivation world of the Nine States.
Only then, whether he lived or died, he would not drag Autumn Leaf Sword Valley into this.
Xie Tian did not care about this, he only cared about the other's intentions.
"Why are you here?"
"To kill Wu Shang and avenge my father."
"Father-killing demon!" Xu Shaoxiang rolled his eyes. To tell the truth, he was about to vomit.
"You will die."
"I know you are strong, but you will be the one to die!"
Xie Tian silently sized up the god power level six swordsman in front of him, and then looked at the sword on his back.
This action caused a ripple in the elder's sword heart, which he had spent a day to calm down. When he saw the mocking smile on Xie Tian's face, the ripple quickly grew.
"Did he … see the sword on my back?"
"This sword is very scary."
The elder's expression changed.
"But I will not give you the chance to use it."
The elder's eyes narrowed, a trace of nervousness growing in his heart.
He knew very well that Xie Tian's methods were too strange. He did not even know if he should listen to Xie Tian, because he did not know which of Xie Tian's words was true and which was false.
At this time, Xie Tian lifted his left leg, seemingly wanting to retreat.
This action caused eighteen flaws to appear in the eyes of the sword cultivator elder of the Autumn Leaf Sword Valley.
"A good chance!"
Almost subconsciously, the elder's heart thumped, the sword embryo exploding with boundless sword energy that surged to the sword on his back.
"Not good, I've fallen into a trap!"
The terror of Xie Tian in the Ancient Battlefield surfaced in the elder's mind, causing him to feel wary.
How could someone as terrifying as Xie Tian reveal his intentions so quickly?
So his retreat must have been a fake.
"But I guessed so!"
So his retreat must have been real.
"But …"
"But …"
"But …"
"So …"
"He is an idiot!" The elder's sluggishness made the frightened Xu Shaoxiang puzzled.
Wu Shang swallowed and did not speak. He did not know the reason either.
The elder's hesitation did not even last for a breath, but it was long enough for Xie Tian to easily take half a step back, and then launch a silent punch with all his strength.
Wu Shang's left eye constricted.
"Power of Oblivion Marrow!"
Xie Tian's silent punch with all his strength brushed across the elder's body like a spring breeze.
The elder finally came back to his senses, looking down at his body in shock. Then he slowly raised his head, staring at Xie Tian who was slowly walking towards him.
"You, you did not lie to me!"
"You, you really, really retreated!"
"You really, really did not let me, let me move my sword!"
With every word he uttered, a piece of the sword cultivator elder's body crumbled. However, what crumbled even more violently was his sword heart.
He understood Xie Tian's methods.
But it was precisely because he understood that he was unwilling, extremely unwilling.
"I, kill, kill you!"
The elder started to activate the sword embryo in his body, trying to control the killing sword on his back.
It was futile.
Although it was futile, he did not give up.
Because his unwillingness had reached a point where he would not rest until he died.
When Xie Tian walked in front of him, he stopped.
This pause brought about a second gust of wind, blowing the sword cultivator elder into a cloud of dust that scattered in the air.
Xie Tian picked up the sword and storage bag on the ground, and walked towards the stunned Wu Shang and Wu Shang.
