"These three people from the Corpse Sect are not simple."
The younger of the two black-clothed cultivators looked at the three corpses on the ground and said, "If I'm not wrong, they should be from the Corpse Sect's Ghost Talent Palace."
The older cultivator frowned and said, "That's right, they are indeed from the Corpse Sect's Ghost Talent Palace. Moreover, their ranking is not lower than the top five."
"Top five!"
Hearing this, the younger cultivator's heart skipped a beat and he was slightly surprised.
The Corpse Sect's Ghost Talent Palace's martial artists were not weak, and since they dared to come to the capital, they must have a trump card.
Who is it? To be able to kill three of the top five martial artists of the Ghost Talent Palace at once!
"This place is very close to the capital, they …" Suddenly, the younger cultivator's expression changed and he said, "Don't tell me they want to ruin the alchemy competition?!"
The alchemy competition was a grand event held by the Alchemy Union. At that time, all the Alchemy Unions in the Great Xia Country would send people to participate.
Almost all the alchemy geniuses in the Great Xia Country had gathered at this grand event. Even Danwu College had been specially invited to participate.
If the Corpse Sect caused trouble, the consequences would be unimaginable!
"I have received reliable information that the Corpse Sect will definitely ruin this alchemy competition."
The older cultivator said in a deep voice, "Immediately return to the capital and prepare the defenses. We must ensure that nothing goes wrong during the alchemy competition!"
Swish! Swish!
As soon as they finished speaking, the two martial artists' figures flashed and dashed towards the capital.
Buzz!
Not long after they disappeared, the space around them wriggled, and a man in a white robe quietly appeared.
Looking at the three corpses on the ground, the man in white's expression was extremely gloomy.
"The people of the Ghost Talent Palace are not so easy to kill."
While muttering, a crack appeared around the man in white. He waved his hand and the corpses of Shen Yong and the others were thrown into the crack.
Swish!
Immediately, the man in white also entered the crack and disappeared.
"Aiyo, I'm so tired."
In the dense forest, Ning Yue and the Dark Emperor flew at full speed for two hours before stopping under a towering tree.
The Dark Emperor sat down under a tree and gasped for breath. "This is too f * cking regretful. Those three are geniuses of the Corpse Sect. No matter what, they should have at least 100 million high grade origin crystals on them. Yet, those two experts got away with it."
"Don't think too much. Take advantage of the fact that this place is still safe to rest up. After that, we will rush back to the capital." Ning Yue released his soul power. After confirming that this place was safe, he let out a sigh of relief.
"It's just that I've expended a lot of my energy. I'll be able to recover to my peak by devouring some Origin Crystals," the Dark Emperor said, waving his claws. "Take out all the Origin Crystals you have. I'm going to devour them."
"I don't have a single crystal on me right now."
Spreading his hands, Ning Yue said, "Just now, I gave more than ten million supreme-grade Essence Crystals to Hong Mo."
"F * ck!"
Hearing Ning Yue's words, the Dark Emperor couldn't help but curse.
More than ten million supreme-grade Essence Crystals? If converted to high-grade Essence Crystals, wouldn't that be one billion?!
"By the way, how is Hong Mo now? Is his life in danger?" The Dark Emperor was slightly worried when he mentioned Hong Mo.
"He is on the third level of the pendant. He said that he wants to communicate with his main body. I don't know if he will succeed." Ning Yue also had some expectations for Hong Mo. After all, Hong Mo's main body's flying sword was of a very high grade. If Hong Mo could benefit from this disaster, his strength would improve qualitatively!
He could even give up on the Soul Breaking Sword and use Hong Mo to fight his enemies.
"Without the Essence Crystals, I will need at least ten days to half a month to recover to my peak." The Dark Emperor said helplessly.
"Oh right!"
Suddenly, Ning Yue seemed to have thought of something and took out ten Essence Gathering Stones from his Storage Ring.
These ten Essence Gathering Stones were obtained by Ning Yue when he killed Master Leng. He didn't pay much attention to them after putting them in his Storage Ring. Who would have thought that they would come in handy now?
"Dark Emperor, protect me. I'm going to set up an Essence Gathering Formation!"
With that said, Ning Yue's figure flashed and he burrowed into the ground in front of the Dark Emperor.
The commotion caused by setting up the Essence Gathering Formation on the surface was too great. Ning Yue was afraid that it would attract trouble.
If he set it up underground, it would avoid a lot of trouble.
The Dark Emperor had witnessed the power of the Essence Gathering Formation before. When Ning Yue took out the Essence Gathering Stones, he immediately released his perception to detect the situation around him.
Bang!
A while later, Ning Yue burrowed out of the ground.
Pa!
After stabbing the last Essence Gathering Stone into the ground, Ning Yue let out a long breath and said in a deep voice, "I set up this Essence Gathering Formation in a hurry. It can't be compared to the Essence Gathering Formation under Master Leng's cave abode. Just make do with it."
"Hehe, this Essence Qi is enough. I'll be able to recover to my peak in three days at most."
With a chuckle, the Dark Emperor sat cross-legged beside the Essence Gathering Stone and started to absorb the Essence Qi that was gathering from underground.
Seeing that, Ning Yue's mouth could not help but twitch a few times.
Initially, he had planned to use the Essence Gathering Formation with the Dark Emperor. But from the looks of it now, he was thinking too much. The Dark Emperor alone could absorb all the Essence Gathering Formation's Essence Gathering Formation.
He could only drink the northwest wind.
Helpless, Ning Yue could only take out the Soul Breaking Sword and planned to recover his damaged Soul Force first.
In order to ensure that the Phantom Armor did not suffer fatal damage, Ning Yue expended a quarter of his Soul Force to protect it.
A quarter of Soul Force was not a lot, but it was not a small amount either.
"Luckily, there's a lot of pure Soul Force in the Soul Breaking Sword. Otherwise, it would be impossible for me to recover to my peak in a short period of time."
The Soul Breaking Sword contained half of Wei Ze's Soul Force and half of Zhang Tianwen's Soul Force.
With this pure soul power, Ning Yue was even confident that he could go one step further and increase his soul power to the Early Stage of Fifth Grade!
After all, his Soul Force had been maintained at peak grade 4 for a long time and was on the verge of breaking through.
Swoosh!
In the next moment, Ning Yue's peak grade 4 Soul Force poured out and entered the Soul Breaking Sword.
Although it was a little dangerous, Ning Yue could not care less because it was not safe here. He had to recover to his peak quickly and return to the capital.
Chi chi!
The first thing Ning Yue devoured was Zhang Tianwen's Soul Force. Zhang Tianwen's Soul Force was peak grade 4. Ning Yue spent an hour to completely devour it.
However, Zhang Tianwen's Soul Force only helped Ning Yue to recover his damaged Soul Force. It did not help him break through to grade 5.
"After devouring Wei Ze's Soul Force, I should have an 80% chance of advancing my Soul Force to early-stage grade 5!"
Ning Yue focused his eyes and devoured the remaining pure Soul Force in the Soul Breaking Sword with all his might.
Pa!
About six hours later, a dull sound rang out from the Soul Breaking Sword.
Such a change caused Ning Yue to reveal a delighted expression, and he hurriedly increased the speed of his devouring.
Pa pa pa!
Another six hours passed, and when three muffled sounds rang out, Ning Yue abruptly stood up, and his soul power swept out from the Absolute Soul Sword.
