The leader of alchemy's face was full of awe as he collapsed onto the ground unwillingly. There was a bloody hole between his brows.
Dead.
The grandmaster of alchemy, an original leveled cultivator, died just like that.
This scene stunned everyone present. Even the raging battle above stopped because of this.
Everyone was in awe as they stared at the young man with the sword. Their faces were full of disbelief.
Theoretically speaking, Ling Xian had the capabilities of an original leveled cultivator of the beginning stage. Plus, the leaders of the three paths didn't specialize in cultivation and were considered the weakest of the original leveled cultivators. Even so, it was already incredible for him to be able to take on three people at once, let alone kill one of them.
Yet now, he had truly killed the leader of alchemy. Why wouldn't they be in awe?
Even the demon, who knew how powerful he was, was shocked to a point of no return. He couldn't help but to call him insane.
He was more than insane. To kill an original leveled cultivator at the completion level was heaven-defying!
Since the ancient times, out of all the powerhouses who left their mark in history, not many could do this!
Just as everyone fell into a state of shock, Ling Xian's face turned white and blood dripped down from the corner of his lips.
To everyone else, he was undefeatable and easily defeated the three original leveled cultivators. But reality was, when the battle reached the middle stage, he was already injured.
After all, he was up against three original leveled cultivators!
If there was only one of them, perhaps he could do it easily and easily. But if the three of them attacked together, then it would be very difficult for him to defend.
The reason why he was able to defeat the three of them was because he squeezed out every ounce of energy he had and even burned his own spiritual energy. In the end, he killed the leader of alchemy and burned his ancient majestic blood!
Or else how could he have killed an original leveled cultivator?
After killing the leader of alchemy, the side effects of using all his energy appeared. The him right now, not only was his ancient majestic blood dormant and unable to operate on its own, but even his internal organs were being attacked.
In other words, he was very weak right now.
Therefore, Ling Xian didn't hesitate. While everyone was still in a daze, he rolled up his sleeve and took the ruler, the cauldron, and the green flag into his pouch. Then, he dashed out of the stone room.
He knew very well that this was not the time to fight. To be able to kill an original leveled cultivator was already a glorious achievement. On top of that, his current condition didn't allow him to continue acting out.
This brought Ji Qian Bai back to himself and he shouted, "Hurry, chase after him! We cannot let him leave!"
At that, the leader of arrays and the leader of crafts exchanged glances and didn't chase right away. Their eyes were full of fear.
"Trash!"
Ji Qian Bai cursed silently. His lungs were about to explode from anger. Ignoring the fact that he lost the Soaring Key, ignoring the fact that the leader of alchemy died, now even the three treasures were stolen by Ling Xian. How could he not be angry?
At that moment, he angrily shouted, "He's also injured, it's impossible for him to be as fierce as before. Why are the two of you afraid of him?"
Hearing this, the two of them gritted their teeth. Their greed for the Soaring Key outweighed their fear and they chased after him.
At this, the demon frowned. The Corpse Mountain and Blood Sea all made their moves in an attempt to kill the pursuers for Ling Xian.
Sadly, as he was restraining Ji Qian Bai and the four peak leaders, they were also restraining him.
HOMMMM!
Ji Qian Bai attacked crazily. Though he was merely at the advanced stage of the original level, he was the Supreme Headmaster of the Shang Qing Sect after all. Plus, with the help of the four peak leaders, they easily stopped the Corpse Mountain and Blood Sea.
"You are seeking death!"
The demon raised an eyebrow and immediately, he was furious. His Qi rolled out in all directions and shocked everyone!
"You should worry about yourself."
Ji Qian Bai said coldly, "I admit that you are strong and I cannot do anything to you. However, I have already sent a message to the two ancestors. I believe it won't be long before we see you turn into dust. "
"Dammit!"
When the word "ancestor" entered his ears, the demon's expression changed. However, his attacks turned more aggressive. He wasn't trying to kill Ji Qian Bai and them, he was trying to escape.
Because the ancestors of the Shang Qing Sect meant they were of the fifth level!
...
Inside the dark underground palace, Ling Xian was running for his life. Especially after he sensed the two surges of Qi behind him, he ran even faster.
What could he do? The overall capability of the Shang Qing Sect was far too powerful. Even if he was heaven defying and killed an original leveled cultivator, there was no way he could fight against them head on.
On top of that, he was injured. Especially since his ancient majestic blood was in hibernation and couldn't heal on its own, it made his situation even worse.
Therefore, he could only run. As long as he can get out of the Shang Qing Sect, everything will be fine!
"Luckily, I remembered the route to the underground palace. Or else I would have died here."
Ling Xian silently rejoiced. As he followed the route he remembered, he shot out rays of sword energy behind him.
Though these rays of sword energy could not threaten the two original leveled cultivators, they could at least slow them down. Every time they slow them down, it meant the possibility of him escaping would increase.
However, his instinct told him that he won't be able to escape as smoothly as he thought he would.
And the facts proved that his guess was correct.
After he dashed out of the underground palace, he noticed that the Array of the Astonished Gods was already activating. The entire Shang Qing Sect was filled with a restraining force that made it hard for people to move.
This made his heart drop. But since things had reached this point, there was no turning back.
He could only use the sword in his hand to kill his way out!
"Luckily, my array skills are at the grandmaster level. Or else I really wouldn't be able to break the restraining force of the Array of the Astonished Gods."
Standing on the empty ground, Ling Xian used his finger as a pen and drew a few lines in the air. Then, the restraining force around him disappeared.
"Let's go!"
Without hesitation, Ling Xian summoned the Winged Blitz and headed towards the direction of the Sect.
However, he had only flown for a few hundred meters before he was stopped in midair by a vast amount of Qi.
"Dammit!"
Ling Xian's expression changed. He exploded with a terrifying amount of Qi in an attempt to break free. However, no matter what he did, he could not shake off this powerful restraining force.
This made his heart drop. Especially after the two grey-haired elders appeared, his heart dropped to the bottom of the valley.
The fifth level!
The two elders were dressed in white and had the demeanor of an immortal. They were both powerhouses of the fifth level!
"Hand over the Soaring Key and let me plant an inhibition spell inside your body. Become a slave of the Shang Qing Sect and I will spare your life."
An elder with eyebrows that reached his shoulders spoke softly. There was no coldness or disdain on his face. There was only nonchalance.
Like a God who was looking down on the world, he didn't think anything of Ling Xian.
The other person was the same. Similarly, he was arrogant and high above everyone else.
This made Ling Xian's eyes turn cold. This person had spoken in such an arrogant tone and wanted him to become a slave of the Shang Qing Sect. Why wouldn't he be angry?
"You two old bastards, do you really think I am a soft persimmon?"
Ling Xian coldly snickered. He knew he had no way out, so why should he compromise? He might as well curse to his heart's content!
"Hmm?"
The long-browed elder's expression changed slightly. For the first time, he looked at Ling Xian in the eye, "You sure have some guts. I just don't know how long your guts can last."
As soon as his voice trailed off, a vast amount of Qi descended. However, it was stopped by one statement.
"I owe this person. Let him go."
