Originally, no matter how great the reputation of this little devil, Fang Xing, was, all the cultivators subconsciously wouldn't place him on the same level as Huangfu Daozi. After all, a little devil was a little devil, a loner, and without any background or power of a clan. Even if a person like this had some ability, it would only be a flash in the pan and would quickly vanish into the crowd. After all, without a clan or sect, it was equivalent to having no resources and reserves.
In reality, the reason why Fang Xing was able to possess such a reputation was because he was extremely daring and directly challenged the Huangfu Clan in the Profound Region. But later on, even though he seized the Sword Tomb and annihilated four of the eight groups of demons under the Huangfu Clan, it was mostly a trick. Moreover, he slipped away when he was challenging Huangfu Daozi. Even though all the cultivators admired his resourcefulness, they couldn't help but look down on him a little.
Later on, the Huangfu Family laid out an inescapable net to capture and kill Fang Xing, which made people feel that this little devil was nothing more than a reckless person who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. Although he had gained some benefits for the time being, he had still caused a great disaster in the end. Not only would he not be able to escape death sooner or later, but he had also implicated his master back in the Blue Cloud Sect, causing his life to fall into eternal damnation. The gains did not make up for the losses.
A few days later, news of the Little Devil killing his own master with a single arrow spread out. Although the cultivators were shocked by the Little Devil's ruthlessness, they looked down on Fang Xing's fearsomeness even more. In their eyes, the Little Devil was only someone who had been forced to the brink of insanity by the Huangfu Clan's pursuit. Although his ruthlessness was chilling, it also revealed his helplessness.
After all, if you really had the ability at that time, why did you have to kill them? Why didn't you just save them?
At this point, Fang Xing had practically become a heart-wrenching joke in the cultivation world of Southern Vision Continent!
A capable, courageous, and ruthless little devil was still a helpless and tragic character in front of the powerful Huangfu Clan. The cultivators all felt a sense of helplessness toward the Huangfu Clan's power.
At this time, Huangfu Daozi, with his outstanding talent, charged into the Mysterious Domain's Deity's Realm in one fell swoop and obtained the Heavenly Dipper Ranking on the Divine Stele, pushing the Huangfu Clan's reputation to the pinnacle. After the Demon Banishing Battle, the Huangfu Clan of Nan Zhan, which had been living in seclusion by the Black Water Lake for three thousand years, easily climbed to the pinnacle. The Huangfu Clan of Nan Zhan was already showing signs of ruling over Nan Zhan. It was so glorious that people couldn't look straight at it.
It was also at this moment that the little devil that was regarded as a joke appeared once again.
He had actually used a despicable assassination method to kill Huangfu Daozi in front of everyone's eyes!
Assassination methods were extremely rare in the cultivation world.
In the mortal world, assassination methods were used because influence and strength were actually separated. Those who controlled a powerful force didn't necessarily have a powerful individual's martial strength. Thus, assassination methods were used. Using the strength of an ordinary person to kill someone who controlled a powerful force but didn't have enough strength was the same as using strength to fight against power. This was the meaning of the so-called anger of an ordinary person.
In the world of cultivation, strength was everything. As a result, those who grasped great power would also possess great power.
In this kind of situation, assassination methods were extremely rare because those who were stronger than their opponents could easily accumulate their strength and wouldn't lose to their opponents. But if their strength was weaker than their opponents, then assassination methods were even more of a joke.
It was precisely because of this sort of situation that assassinations rarely occurred in the cultivation world, and it had been like this for a few thousand years. Cultivators didn't take any precautions against assassinations, and battles of the arts and techniques emerged endlessly instead. However, this fellow, Fang Xing, who grew up in a den of bandits, had brought the assassination methods of the mortal world into the cultivation world, and he relied on his courage and ruthlessness to really succeed.
Thus, in the blink of an eye, the situation changed greatly. The extraordinary Huangfu Daozi had officially revealed himself before all the cultivators, yet in less than a month, he'd been beheaded at the most glorious moment of his life, and the glory of the Huangfu Clan had become a joke.
Besides feeling shocked, all the cultivators had thoughts about this matter, and they followed over to see what exactly happened.
They were already able to imagine that the matter of Huangfu Daozi being assassinated would surely become the greatest matter in the cultivation world in the last 300 years.
This little devil deserved to be called a little devil!
Gradually, more and more cultivators arrived in the surroundings, and the space and ground around Green Hill Tomb were completely filled with people. Some had expressions of excitement because they'd caught up with this extremely rare topic of conversation, and this matter would probably be spread for a few hundred years in the cultivation world. There were also some that were deeply worried, worried about the terrifying consequences this matter would bring about. They had different feelings, yet they were constantly concerned about it.
It wasn't long before even the eight groups of demons under the command of the Huangfu Clan had arrived. They originally intended to charge in, yet they didn't dare rashly enter because they noticed the miasma in the surroundings of Green Hill Tomb was extraordinary, and they waited anxiously outside. All of their faces carried killing intent, and they wished for nothing more than to drag the little devil out before tearing, chewing, and swallowing his flesh bite by bite, leaving not a single trace behind!
"An entire nine Golden Core Realm cultivators went in to capture this little devil. Why hasn't he come out after so long?"
All the cultivators didn't dare rashly enter the miasma, yet they couldn't help but discuss in bewilderment when they didn't see anyone come out after a long time.
"Could it be that there's some sort of trap set up by that little devil?"
"The difference in strength is there for all to see. Not to mention nine Golden Core Realm cultivators, even one of them would be able to kill that little devil with a single slap. Even if there's a trap, how could he do anything to Golden Core Realm cultivators? Unless there's a Yuanying lying in ambush in that trap of his! "
Hearing up to here, all the cultivators smiled and shook their heads, thinking that if that little devil could bring out a Yuanying, then he wouldn't have been forced into desperation by the Huangfu Clan and taken such a great risk to assassinate Huangfu Daozi. After all, Yuanying was an enormous backer.
However, there was also someone who analyzed hesitantly. "This place looks like an ancient ruin, and that miasma isn't simple either. Could it be that it was once a ruin of the demon race, and there's some sort of dangerous setup inside that was used by this little devil to trap the Huangfu Clan's Golden Core Realm cultivator?"
This statement was close to the truth, but the cultivators whispered to each other and felt that it was impossible. "The demon race's ruins were swept clean three thousand years ago, and every inch of the place has been thoroughly investigated. What kind of powerful ruins could there be that could trap a Golden Core Realm cultivator? Moreover, if it really is a powerful place that can trap a Golden Core Realm cultivator, then this little devil wouldn't necessarily have the ability to set up a trap! "
After thinking for a long time, they still had no clue and could only wait patiently.
On the other hand, Fang Xing relied on the Golden Crow's speed and the method of the two of them working together to deduce the spell formation. It turned out that although there were many twists and turns in this stone cave, there was only one passage to leave the stone cave. Fang Xing went around in circles for a long time, but in the end, he still had to leave through the main passage.
After finally seeing the light at the exit in front of him, Fang Xing heaved a long sigh of relief in his heart.
To be honest, when they first decided on this plan, he and the Golden Crow did not have much confidence in their hearts. The two of them had already experienced the dangers of this stone cave. Although their strength had greatly increased, when it came to safely entering and exiting the stone cave and not being caught by the Forbidden Yin Ghost Slaves, they still only had about 30% confidence. However, Fang Xing was angry, but he still took the risk.
Moreover, he had also discussed with the Golden Crow that the Forbidden Yin Ghost Slaves should have two characteristics. One was that it was more interested in people with high cultivation because it was a manifestation of a spell. It was a dead thing driven by instinct. The higher the cultivation of the person, the more spiritual Qi in the body, the more attractive it was to it. This was a great advantage for Fang Xing and the Golden Crow. Secondly, the Forbidden Yin Ghost Slaves could be regarded as a supplement to the large array in this stone cave. It was also an existence that guarded the Immortal Palace. From the previous experience, when the large array was activated, the Forbidden Yin Ghost Slaves would wake up. It could be seen that they were connected to the large array. In that case, the less one touched the large array, the less they would be noticed.
As a result, the Huangfu Clan's Golden Core cultivators were extremely attractive to the Forbidden Yin Ghost Slaves. It could be said that without the Huangfu Clan's cultivators, Fang Xing and the Golden Crow wouldn't have been able to escape from the cave so easily.
Now that he saw the hope of escape, he could escape after tricking a group of Huangfu Clan's Gold Core Realm cultivators. It could be said that his plan had succeeded. Naturally, Fang Xing was overjoyed and urged the nervous and excited Golden Crow to quickly leave the cave. In fact, the Golden Crow didn't need him to urge it. It really treasured its life more than him. With a "quack" sound, it rushed toward the cave entrance. Seeing that there was hope of escape, it was extremely excited.
"Hahahaha …"
"Quack, quack, quack …"
The man and the bird rushed out of the cave entrance and immediately burst into laughter. This time, they weren't as exhausted as last time. After rushing out of the cave, they directly fell down. Instead, they rushed straight into the sky. After breaking through the thick miasma, they suddenly saw a blue sky in front of them. Their beating heart finally calmed down. At the same time, they let out wild and proud laughter.
It was also at this moment that the man and the bird were stunned. They suddenly saw the sky full of cultivators looking at them in surprise. The group of cultivators closest to them was only ten feet away, and they could see each other's eyelashes.
"Damn, so many people?"
Fang Xing was not mentally prepared and was startled.
The cultivators opposite them, or even all the cultivators in the void and on the ground, were also startled by Fang Xing and the Great Golden Crow. They originally thought that the Huangfu Clan's Gold Core Realm cultivators would grab Fang Xing and drag him out. Unexpectedly, the Huangfu Clan's Gold Core Realm cultivators didn't come out. Instead, Fang Xing and the Golden Crow came out and laughed so proudly!
"Could it be that the Huangfu Clan's Gold Core Realm cultivators have met with misfortune?"
Such a thought appeared in everyone's mind, and they actually faintly felt a kind of panic in their hearts.
If this little devil really had some means to trap and kill nine Huangfu Clan's Gold Core Realm cultivators, then this ability was really boundless.
