Sikong Tan coughed up blood with a defeated expression. Looking at Yuwen Fu, who was also coughing up blood, he wanted to spit blood all over his face.
Yuwen Fu had been acting like he had everything under control, even saying that everything was within his calculations.
You're scheming my ass!
Now that the two of us are lying side by side coughing up blood, is this also within your calculations?
Actually, Yuwen Fu's calculations were quite detailed, even down to what they should do at every moment.
According to the previous plan, the two of them would delay Chu Xiu and engage in an intense battle, while Chen Jiulong and Xu Jiang would lure the powerful Demonic Ghost over.
By the time they had exhausted Chu Xiu and the Ghost General had arrived, Xu Jiang would use a secret technique to brand Chu Xiu's body and have Chu Xiu fight the Ghost General to the death.
But now, before Chen Jiulong and Xu Jiang had even sent any news, they had made a huge mistake.
They had underestimated Chu Xiu and overestimated themselves.
Delaying Chu Xiu, with the difference in strength between the two sides, it would be good if they could last a few moves.
Chu Xiu walked over slowly and said, "The heavens have the virtue of cherishing life. Actually, I don't really like killing people. Although you've come to find trouble with me, I'll be merciful this time. Hand over the token and soul crystals, and I'll let you live. "
Sikong Tan whispered to Yuwen Fu, "Brother Yuwen, let's forget about it for now. This Chu Xiu is too sharp and not to be trifled with. Let's return for now and think of another plan."
"Forget about it! Chen Jiulong and Xu Jiang have already lured the Ghost General over. As long as we delay Chu Xiu, we still have a chance! "
Sikong Tan said helplessly, "But what do we use to delay him?"
"Use your life to delay him!"
As Yuwen Fu's voice fell, a wave of blood rose around his body and fused into his sword.
The sword's edge was stained with blood, and sword qi filled the air.
In that instant, Yuwen Fu's entire body seemed to have fused into the sword.
There was no heaven, no earth, no self, but there was the sword!
Yuwen Fu's figure could no longer be seen in the entire world. The only thing that could be seen was a blood-red sword that seemed to be tearing the heavens and earth apart!
Chu Xiu frowned. His intuition told him that something was wrong.
It was true that there was hatred between him and Yu Wenfu, but did Yu Wenfu take the wrong medicine? He clearly didn't want to kill anyone. It was rare for him to be merciful and let him live, but he didn't run. Instead, he insisted on fighting with his life on the line. What kind of trick was this?
There was no enmity between him and the man who killed his father or stole his wife. Wasn't he just defeated by me once? Is he so stubborn? Isn't this guy a little too petty?
Chu Xiu's eyes flashed with killing intent when he saw the blood sword tearing through the sky and slashing towards him. It was a deep killing intent.
This time, he really didn't want to kill them. He only wanted to take their money, not their lives.
But since Yuwen Fu wanted to court death, then he would fulfill his wish!
His God Domain spread out, and all the power within a few hundred meters was under his control.
Yin and Yang were in chaos, and the five elements were inverted. All the power was under Chu Xiu's control. He continuously strangled the blood sword that was slashing towards him, revealing Yuwen Fu's appearance within.
The Ethereal Slash fell, and its extreme sharpness collided with the sword. In an instant, the powerful sharpness formed a huge storm that soared into the sky.
Yuwen Fu had used his blood as a guide to fuse his own power into the longsword, turning himself into a sword. This was already considered a rather extreme method among sword cultivators.
Even so, this kind of power was still no threat to Chu Xiu.
"Sikong Tan! Are you still not going to make a move? Use your Divine Armament Formation! "
Yuwen Fu's voice rang in Sikong Tan's ears. He had a helpless look on his face, but he had no choice but to make a move.
It wasn't easy for him to befriend Yuwen Fu and sneak into the circle of prime sovereigns' successors. Today, he had to join Yuwen Fu in attacking Chu Xiu. The grudge between them was already set in stone.
If he didn't make a move now, not only would he offend both sides, he wouldn't benefit at all.
As soon as Yuwen Fu's voice fell, spots of light lit up around Sikong Tan's body.
Upon closer inspection, these spots of light turned out to be small formation plates, as well as some weapon-like items.
However, these items were currently being controlled by chains of astral energy, forming a strange formation. The source of these astral energy chains was none other than Sikong Tan himself.
Sikong Tan was born from a humble background. In his early years, in order to accumulate financial resources, he also excelled in formations, smithing, and other things besides martial arts.
Although he couldn't compare to professional smithing masters or formation masters, those people might not necessarily be stronger than him in terms of martial arts.
Normally, knowing so many things would be a mess, but Sikong Tan could be considered a genius. He actually fused all these random things into one and combined them with his own martial arts to create the Divine Armament Formation as his trump card.
Densely packed formation plates and some weapon-like items appeared one after another. Only the heavens knew just how much Sikong Tan had accumulated over the years.
However, these seemingly unrelated items were linked together by a secret technique. Their powers actually began to interconnect, forming a strange formation that shrouded Chu Xiu!
At the same time, Yuwen Fu's eyes revealed a ruthless glint. The blood and Qi around him erupted once again, and the blood sword soared into the sky. In the next instant, that sharp gleam had already arrived before Chu Xiu!
Chu Xiu narrowed his eyes, and the demonic aura around him erupted violently. Like a black hole, it madly absorbed all the power around it.
His figure began to expand as he used the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth. In that instant, Chu Xiu was like a devil incarnate, incomparably terrifying.
With a slap from his left hand, a powerful force directly shattered the crimson sword. A crack appeared on the longsword in Yuwen Fu's hand, which expanded and finally shattered. Yuwen Fu's entire person was flung through the air by the force of the palm strike. His body seemed to be on the verge of shattering, and he was completely covered in blood.
At the same time, Chu Xiu's right fist smashed down, and a series of crackling sounds rang out. All the formation plates and weapons shattered under this one punch from Chu Xiu.
Although Sikong Tan withdrew his hand in time and cut off the connection with those things, he was still sent flying by the wind from the punch. Like a gourd rolling on the ground, he flew backward and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
He was not hurt, but rather, his heart ached.
These formation plates and weapons were not Gang Qi, which could be recovered after being used up. They were all the treasures he had accumulated over the years!
But now, all of them had been destroyed by Chu Xiu. He had worked hard for over a hundred years, and now he was back to where he was before.
Sikong Tan wanted to cry, but no tears came out. He even felt like strangling Yuwen Fu to death.
Mystique!
That was a mystique!
It was a mystique that not even Martial Immortals could fully grasp, yet Chu Xiu, a Tongxuan realm cultivator, was able to use it so skillfully. That was simply bullying. The two of them were simply not on the same level. How were they supposed to fight?
Chu Xiu walked over with the formation plates in his hand, killing intent in his eyes.
He did not ask why Yuwen Fu wanted to fight him with his life on the line. To Chu Xiu, that was no longer important.
He had already given them a chance to live, yet Yuwen Fu was still serious and wanted to fight him to the death. Since that was the case, Chu Xiu would grant him his wish.
In a fight to the death, one must have the resolve to fight to the death. No one could escape from that.
Anyone who wanted to kill Chu Xiu would not be spared by Chu Xiu.
Chu Xiu was unable to repay enmity with kindness, but he was still able to stop killing by killing.
Seeing Chu Xiu walk over with his blade in hand, brimming with killing intent, Sikong Tan was completely terrified. In the end, he used the last of his power to escape.
He could not care less about Yuwen Fu.
That idiot was seeking death, but he did not want to stay behind and seek death with Yuwen Fu.
It was already a moment of life and death, so he could not care so much anymore.
But just at that moment, a horrifying aura suddenly attacked. Chilling winds blew, and mournful howls could be heard. The entire sky instantly became incomparably gloomy, and the cries of gods and ghosts resounded throughout the world.
Sikong Tan's eyes immediately lit up. We're saved!
At that moment, Yuwen Fu, who was heavily injured by Chu Xiu, was also laughing loudly as he vomited blood.
Chen Jiulong and Xu Jiang had arrived earlier than he expected!
Actually, it was not that Chen Jiulong and Xu Jiang were fast, but that the person behind them was too fierce, so they had no choice but to increase their speed.
A golden figure in the shape of a dragon was flying in the air, and it was carrying a person. Its speed was so fast that it was like a bolt of lightning.
Even with Chu Xiu's eyesight, he could only vaguely see that the other party should be a tall and sturdy man.
As for the person he was carrying, it was a young man wearing a white Confucian robe.
Of course, none of this attracted Chu Xiu's attention. At that moment, all his attention was focused on the thing behind them.
It was an extremely horrifying existence.
It was close to ten feet tall, and it was wearing black battle armor. It held a huge crescent moon blade in its hand, which emitted a blood-red glow.
There was no flesh or blood on its body, and what was exposed was layers of seemingly solid black mist. Even its face was the same, with only two scarlet eyes that emitted a horrifying red glow.
That thing was not human, but it also did not seem like a demon ghost, because its aura was too strong, and it had already condensed into a solid form. This was completely different from the demon ghosts that Chu Xiu remembered.
But in the Central Province, if this thing was not a demon ghost, then what was it?
Wherever that thing passed, all power would be assimilated into an extremely evil power. It was not demonic qi, but more accurately, it should be ghost qi of the netherworld.
Along the way, it directly left behind a long ghost domain, and even the essence of the world was repelled outside.
Chen Jiulong unleashed all of his power and began to fly. It wasn't because of Yuwen Fu, but because that thing was too terrifying. If he was even a bit slower and got caught by Yuwen Fu, his bloodline would basically be cut off.
However, when he arrived at the agreed place, he didn't see the exhausted Chu Xiu. He only saw Yuwen Fu and Sikong Tan lying there miserably, which made him jump in fright. This didn't seem to be the same as what they had agreed on.
