Ten days!
Time was actually very short.
Chen Zong was not in a hurry to make a move. Instead, he gathered information first.
Even if he wanted to leave, he had to put on an act so that the other party would not notice anything amiss.
His powerful soul allowed Chen Zong to sense that he was being watched. However, he did not know where the Fifth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage Hei Sha was.
Xu Jing!
This was a green-robed disciple of the Ancient Wind Mansion. Chen Zong had his eyes on him. Chen Zong was intentionally or unintentionally collecting information about him and keeping an eye on his whereabouts.
It seemed like Chen Zong had set him as a target to kill.
Of course, that was not the case. Chen Zong was doing all this to confuse the person watching him and make him think that he was working hard to complete the mission.
The Hei Sha only needed to issue a mission. As long as the mission was completed within the time limit, there was no limit to the methods used.
Time passed by slowly. There were only four days left until the mission was completed.
On this day, Xu Jing left the Ancient Wind Mansion and prepared to make a trip to the Ash Cloud Mountain.
The Ash Cloud Mountain was the largest mountain range in the Ancient Wind Mansion. It stretched for millions of miles and led directly to the other two mansions. The reason Chen Zong chose to enter the Ash Cloud Mountain was because it was connected to the other two mansions.
If he wanted to leave the Hei Sha Ancient Wind branch, he naturally had to leave the Ancient Wind Mansion.
Xu Jing led a few people and set off. They were going to enter the Ash Cloud Mountain. Chen Zong followed them.
Naturally, the person watching them in the dark also set off.
He would not help Chen Zong complete the mission. His only role was to monitor Chen Zong's every move. If he made the slightest move that was detrimental to the Hei Sha, he would immediately kill him.
Xu Jing was a mid-level half-Saint. With Chen Zong's strength, it would not be difficult for him to kill Xu Jing. Xu Jing was accompanied by a mid-level half-Saint and two low-level half-Saint. They were not a threat to Chen Zong.
After all, Chen Zong had already gathered some information.
Demonic beasts ran rampant in the Ash Cloud Mountain. Xu Jing and the others' purpose in entering the Ash Cloud Mountain was naturally to hunt demonic beasts.
"Why haven't you made a move yet?" The Fifth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage master who was secretly monitoring Chen Zong was confused.
Now that he had truly entered Ash Cloud Mountain, he could completely kill Xu Jing. However, the newcomer Yun Jian had no intention of doing so.
But his job was to keep watch, regardless of anything else.
They went deeper, deeper, deeper, and deeper. They were already eight thousand miles deep into the Green Cloud Mountain. The demonic beasts here were all very powerful. There were at least half-step Saints here.
"They should be making their move soon," The Fifth Heaven Saint Realm cultivator monitoring Chen Zong muttered.
However, what happened next was beyond his expectations. Chen Zong did indeed take action. He was also heading in the direction of Xu Jing and the others.
However, Chen Zong did not attack Xu Jing. Instead, he shot past Xu Jing at an extremely fast speed, heading deeper into Ash Cloud Mountain.
The Fifth Heaven Saint Realm cultivator was shocked at first, but soon a cruel smile appeared on his face.
He actually dared to try and escape. He was simply courting death.
His figure flashed, and he immediately soared into the sky at a shocking speed.
The speed of a Fifth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage expert was fully displayed at this moment. He was like a black streak of light, and as long as there were any obstacles in his way, he would pass through them in an instant, without even touching them. He was extremely agile.
Fast!
It was simply too fast.
Everything Chen Zong had done earlier was to confuse the other party. Otherwise, if he revealed any intention of leaving the Black Fiend, he would have been killed instantly.
Now that they had entered the Ash Cloud Mountain, all their efforts had paid off. It was time to leave now that they had confused the other party.
The Ash Cloud Mountain was connected to the other two mansions. Chen Zong had deliberately waited until Xu Jing and the others were deep enough before acting as if he was about to make his move.
However, Chen Zong's speed was indeed fast, but the other party's speed was even faster.
There was a huge gap between the speed of a high-level Half-Saint and a Saint Realm cultivator. Moreover, the other party was not an ordinary Saint Realm cultivator. He was a Fifth Heaven Saint Realm cultivator who specialized in speed.
Therefore, in just a few breaths, Chen Zong felt a terrifying baleful aura pressing down on his body, causing his skin to feel slightly numb. It was as though a tiny electric current was rapidly spreading across his skin, causing his body to feel slightly numb. It was as though he was being pricked by an electrified needle.
The strength of a Fifth Heaven Saint Realm cultivator was not something he could contend with right now.
'I have no choice but to use my trump card,' Chen Zong thought to himself. He had three life-saving trump cards: the Large Cloud Bomb, the Flowing Cloud Flying Sword, and the Flying Cloud Treasure Ring.
One focused on a large area attack, one focused on a single target, and one focused on speed.
Chen Zong's original plan was to use the Flying Cloud Treasure Ring's speed to escape. After all, the speed of a Sixth Heaven Saint Realm cultivator was very fast.
However, now that he thought about it, the other party's speed was slightly faster than an ordinary Fifth Heaven Saint Realm cultivator. Although the Flying Cloud Treasure Ring had the speed of a Sixth Heaven Saint Realm cultivator, it was still faster than the other party. It was enough for him to escape from the other party's pursuit. However, it was only temporary.
After all, the Flying Cloud Treasure Ring's energy was not limitless. Once its energy was exhausted, his speed would drop to its original level. At that time, there was no guarantee that the other party would not follow his aura or the fluctuations of the Black Fiend Mark's aura.
In that case, he could only use the Flowing Cloud Flying Sword to kill the other party. That way, he would not need to use the Flying Cloud Treasure Ring. He could rely on his own strength to enter Gray Cloud Mountain and leave the Ancient Wind Mansion to avoid the pursuit of the Black Fiend Ancient Wind branch.
With that thought, Chen Zong made a decision without any hesitation.
He paused and turned around to face the Fifth Heaven Saint Realm cultivator who was chasing after him.
This person's cultivation was at the Fifth Heaven Saint Realm. However, Chen Zong had no idea how strong he was.
He only had one Flowing Cloud Flying Sword. If he wanted to use it, he had to kill his opponent in one blow. It would be best if he could deceive his opponent before making his move.
"Why aren't you running anymore?" The Fifth Heaven Saint Realm expert closed in on Chen Zong without the slightest intention of stopping. Like a Yin Baleful Storm, his voice was cold and filled with a bone-chilling murderous intent. This murderous intent was so terrifying that it could penetrate one's soul.
Although the other party was asking questions, he had no intention of wasting his breath. He wanted to kill Chen Zong as soon as he made his move.
It was as if talking was just a habit of his.
Chen Zong's heart sank. This person's actions were beyond his expectations.
In this kind of situation, the other party should be the one to stop and interrogate him.
"Since I can't escape, why should I? I'll just die anyway." Chen Zong said resolutely. A resolute aura emanated from his body. This was the eruption and counterattack of someone who had lost all hope in a hopeless situation. It was like a meteor streaking across the night sky, seeking only an instant of brilliance.
When the Fifth Heaven Saint Rudiment Stage sensed the aura from Chen Zong's body, his heart shuddered. Chen Zong's strength was weak, like an ant to him, and he could easily crush him with a single finger.
However, he was surprised by Chen Zong's resolute will and determination before his death.
If Chen Zong didn't die, he might be a hero of his generation.
Unfortunately, he didn't have the chance to live. A mere half-step Saint Realm cultivator had no chance of escaping from a Fifth Heaven Saint Realm cultivator.
After all, when Chen Zong entered the Black Demon Organization, everything was taken away. After a thorough inspection, nothing was left behind.
Of course, this was also because the Blood Dripping Sword Seal and three secret treasures had been integrated into Chen Zong's body. This was a very clever move. Another reason was that when the inspector found out that Chen Zong was brought from outside the Tian Yuan Sacred Region to be sold, he subconsciously looked down on him. It was inevitable.
As a result, the inspection wasn't as detailed and thorough.
It could only be said that Chen Zong was very lucky.
If the inspector was more careful and thorough, the items in his body might have been found. It was unknown if he could keep them.
Based on this, the Fifth Heaven Saint Realm cultivator was certain that Chen Zong would die.
Without any trump cards or reliance, Chen Zong was like an ant with just his strength as a high level half-step Saint.
"Die!"
As soon as his words fell, the Fifth Heaven Saint Realm powerhouse pointed his finger towards Yang Kai. A jet black energy condensed from his finger and shot towards Yang Kai, carrying a terrifying killing intent as it shot towards Yang Kai.
It was too fast. It was so fast that Chen Zong couldn't react in time. In just an instant, the terrifying finger ray shot out.
Chen Zong had no choice but to fight to the death.
Chen Zong pointed out with his finger. In an instant, a wisp of incomparably swift and fierce sword light tore through the sky and shot out.
It was the Flowing Cloud Flying Sword.
The Flowing Cloud Flying Sword's strength was at the Sixth Heaven Saint Realm. Naturally, its speed was also at the Sixth Heaven Saint Realm.
This attack was beyond his opponent's expectations.
It was too fast.
"How is this possible?!" The Fifth Heaven Saint Realm cultivator was shocked. The sword ray that shot out from the high level half-step Saint Realm cultivator's finger was even faster than his own.
A few dozen meters was a short distance. A Sixth Heaven Saint Realm cultivator's speed was shocking.
The black finger ray was directly destroyed. It shot out like a hot knife through butter.
In his eyes, the cloud-white sword ray shot out and filled the entire world.
As he was about to die, his potential erupted. It was as if he had turned the impossible into possible. He quickly dodged to the side. However, the speed that he was usually proud of seemed to have lost its effect at this moment.
There seemed to be a faint buzzing sound in his ears. It was as if it was the last sound he would hear in the world.
The cloud-white sword ray instantly pierced through the side of his heart, avoiding the vital point of his heart. However, the sword ray wasn't as simple as it seemed. It was as if the Flowing Cloud Dao Master had calculated it or had prepared for it.
When the sword ray entered his body, it didn't penetrate his body. Instead, it paused for a moment before exploding. Countless cloud-white sword qi burst out with shocking power. All of them were at the Sixth Heaven Saint Realm.
It tore, strangled, and destroyed.
Before the Fifth Heaven Saint Realm cultivator could rejoice at the fact that his vital point had been avoided, he felt a tearing pain spread throughout his body. Blood spurted out as he trembled.
His entire body was covered in blood in an instant.
Chen Zong finally heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the Fifth Heaven Saint Realm cultivator fall to the ground. However, he didn't let his guard down completely. He slashed out with his sword. Sword qi pierced through the air and struck the Fifth Heaven Saint Realm cultivator's body again. It split the Fifth Heaven Saint Realm cultivator's body like a hot knife through butter.
