Lu Qiuran knew that once she was trapped, she would not be able to escape, just like the last time. She did not want to waste any more time. She leaped up and retreated rapidly.
The Gale Sage frowned, but he did not give chase. Seeing that the Gale Sage had stopped, Lu Qiuran stopped as well and continued cursing.
"You're the one who asked for it. You can't blame anyone else!"
The Gale Sage no longer held back his strength. He clawed at the air with both hands, and two massive vortexes spun toward Lu Qiuran.
Space twisted, collapsed, and folded. In the blink of an eye, a black hole with a diameter of one meter appeared. It looked like a ferocious maw that would devour everything.
Knowing that her opponent had used his strongest move, Lu Qiuran's face paled. She swung her arm, and the sword in her hand flew toward the black hole.
Kacha!
The high-tier Immortal artifact shattered instantly. The powerful impact collided with the black hole, and a shockwave spread out in all directions. The buildings and trees within a radius of several hundred meters were swept away in an instant.
It was fortunate that they were in the vicinity of Herb Mountain, where there was no one around. Otherwise, countless people would have died.
"You could have controlled this energy …" Lu Qiuran gritted her teeth.
The collision between the sword and the black hole was powerful, but as a Sage, the Gale Sage should have been able to suppress it easily if he wanted to.
However, he did not do so. Not only did he allow the energy to erupt, he even added fuel to the fire … In other words, he did not care about the lives of ordinary cultivators.
Everyone beneath a Sage was an ant … In the eyes of a Sage, as long as one had not reached the same level of cultivation, one was nothing.
"Even if something happens, it's your fault. What does it have to do with me?"
The Gale Sage sneered. He took a step forward and arrived above Lu Qiuran. With a flip of his hand, a world-shattering energy enveloped the latter.
Even a Sage would find it difficult to withstand such power, let alone a Demi-Sage. Lu Qiuran felt her body stiffen. She felt like a lone boat in the middle of a raging sea. No matter how she tried, she could not escape.
Just as she thought that she was doomed, a sword ray suddenly appeared behind the Gale Sage.
It was only the size of a sesame seed at first, but in an instant, it became as dazzling as a star.
"This …"
The Storm Saint's face darkened as his pupils shrank.
Zhang Xuan's Sword Will was imbued with an invincible power that could crush one's soul. Even though he was a Saint, he still felt a little dizzy when he was struck by Zhang Xuan's Sword Will. He felt as though he was a rabbit that had been targeted by a hunter. He wanted to escape, but he was unable to do so no matter what he tried.
"Sword Saint's Sword Dao? Invincible Sword Intent? "
His face was pale.
Although he had become a Saint late and had never seen a Sword Saint, he had seen many swordsmanship experts. The sword radiance before him didn't contain too much power. It was only at the pinnacle of Pre-Saint, but the sword intent was something that even he couldn't resist.
It gave off a feeling that it could destroy the heavens and earth, that it could kill even gods and buddhas that stood in its way. Even the souls that had been nourished by the energy of the heavens and earth began to tremble.
He had no time to kill Lu Qiuran. He raised his left hand and the Storm Saint slashed down.
His entire right arm was chopped off in an instant. He controlled it with his mind and sent it toward the sword light.
The Invincible Sword Will would only return after seeing blood. He could not block it, so he could only use his arm to block it.
Puchi!
The Sword Will and the arm came into contact. With a slight twist, the arm was immediately torn into powder. It was also because of this delay that the Storm Saint had escaped the lock of the Sword Will and rushed toward Herb Mountain.
Su Yin's eyes were solemn. "A warrior wringing his wrist … As expected of a Saint. How ruthless!"
He had comprehended the Invincible Sword Will and was able to use the Sword Saint's power of laws with the help of Li Qiaofu's blood essence. He thought that he would be able to kill the Storm Saint with a sneak attack. He didn't expect the Storm Saint to be so decisive. Seeing that he couldn't block it, he immediately chopped off his arm to protect himself.
"Do you think you can escape?"
Su Yin was not in a hurry. Instead, he snorted coldly and stabbed at the Storm Saint again.
At this moment, he was like a well-hidden assassin. Once touched, it would be like a poison to the bone. He would not rest until he was dead.
"You're courting death!"
At this moment, an angry roar rang out.
Then, there seemed to be a scorching flame on top of Herb Mountain that quickly surged over. Before it reached the Storm Saint, its powerful aura made one's skin hurt.
"It's another Saint. His reaction is so fast …"
From his sneak attack to the Storm Saint's escape, less than a breath had passed. In such a short time, the other party had already noticed and rushed over. This Saint had probably 'seen' Lu Qiuran from the beginning and just didn't make a move!
"Even a Saint would need time to rush over. It's too late …"
Ignoring the other party's pressure, Su Yin activated the Invincible Sword Will. His entire body seemed to have turned into a longsword as he instantly appeared before the Storm Saint.
He knew from Senior Sister that this guy was ungrateful and had already sentenced him to death.
Using all his strength, Su Yin once again entered the state of severing emotions. Time seemed to have no concept for him. Perhaps it was only a thousandth of a breath, or perhaps it was as long as a century. The Storm Saint had only escaped less than half a meter when he felt a sharp pain in his throat. Countless Sword Qi drilled into his body through his meridians and exploded wildly.
Bang!
"You …" He wanted to say something, but he couldn't. His eyes dimmed as his corpse fell from the sky.
Boom!
Following his death, the sky seemed like it was about to cry. Bright red clouds appeared one after another, and drops of red rain fell from the sky. It was as if it was raining blood.
"A rain of blood fell from the sky. A Saint has fallen …"
The entire Herb Mountain City was dead silent. Everyone was silent.
Saints were the most powerful beings in the Immortal World. They had not died for ten thousand years, but now they had been killed … Witnessing it with their own eyes, it was unbelievable.
"Saints have surpassed the Great Dao and are recognized by the heavens. Once they fall, it means that the end of their path has collapsed. Even the heavens will be grieving and rain of blood will fall. For Illusionary Divine dream masters, the rain of blood will only cover a radius of a hundred miles, a thousand miles, or even ten thousand miles. For True Saints with great influence, the entire Immortal World will weep."
Song Yu's voice rang in his ears.
The 36 Ancient Sages were all True Saints. When they fell, the entire Immortal World was covered in red clouds. The heavens and earth mourned, and this situation lasted for a full three days and three nights.
This Storm Saint was just a side branch Saint who cultivated the Firmament Path. The rain of blood would only cover a radius of a hundred miles at most.
"I want you to die …"
Killing the Storm Saint took less than two breaths. Another Saint who had rushed over from Herb Mountain saw that his companion had been killed. He roared and grabbed at the air.
Rumble!
A section of the city wall that was dozens of miles long was lifted up and smashed down.
Su Yin narrowed his eyes.
He had to admit that no one who could become a Saint was a fool.
Although he could kill a Saint, he relied on the Invincible Sword Intent, the Sword Saint Rules, and a sneak attack. His true strength was still far from a Saint's.
The other party had seen through his weakness and grabbed the city wall to smash it down.
This way, even if the Invincible Sword Intent that he was so proud of could break through the city wall, it would be blocked by the rock and its power would be greatly reduced.
It could be said that his opponent had completely nullified his advantage with just a single move.
"Let's go!"
Knowing that he could not take the attack head-on or he would definitely be attacked by the other party, Su Yin flicked his wrist and the Cloud-Piercing Shuttle appeared. With a light shake, he put the Storm Saint's corpse into his storage ring. At the same time, he grabbed Lu Qiuran and tore through space, rushing toward Herb Mountain.
If the city wall could block his Sword Qi, it could also block the Saint in the air from sealing the space. In the blink of an eye, the two had landed on the high steps of Herb Mountain.
"This is a matter between Lu Kang and me. It's a battle for the title of Medicine Saint. It has nothing to do with you. Those who insist on obstructing us will be killed without mercy!"
Seeing countless disciples rushing up from Herb Mountain, Lu Qiuran roared and stomped on the ground.
Rumble!
The stairs collapsed, and the disciples of the Herb Mountain were thrown off their feet. A large number of them fell and were injured.
Although she could not get involved in Su Yin's battle, he was still a peak Quasi-Saint and was not someone these lackeys could fight against.
As expected, many disciples retreated after being yelled at.
They did not have much combat strength and were frightened by Su Yin's methods. How would they dare to go forward?
Seeing this scene, Su Yin shook his head.
A just cause enjoys abundant support while an unjust cause finds little.
Both Lu Kang and the Storm Saint were cold and did not treat these disciples as humans. Naturally, they were not willing to work for them.
"Die!"
While he was lamenting, the Saint in the air was furious. He controlled the city wall and smashed it down again.
"Smash it. It's best to delay Lu Kang from refining the Medicine Saint's corpse..."
Su Yin did not block it. Holding his sword, he rushed toward the direction of Li Shixun's corpse.
The other party was refining it very quickly. Li Shixun was already so thin that it was almost invisible. He had to stop it as soon as possible. If this person really smashed it down, even if he would be injured, the Little Medicine Saint would definitely be forced to stop.
Crackle!
As he moved forward, he broke the formations and seals. He was very fast.
Seeing that he was rushing toward the place where Lu Kang was in seclusion, the Saint in the air did not dare to smash it again. He shouted angrily and smashed down.
His aura gathered on his fist and a fiery-red flame spewed out. The temperature was so high that it distorted the air.
The Inferno Saint was a branch of the Great Dao of Fire. Although he was not much stronger than the Storm Saint, his offensive power was much stronger. It was impossible to defend against.
"Myriad Sword Intent for my use, Myriad Swords Return to Origin!"
Su Yin knew that his opponent's punch contained the power of a Saint's attack, and no matter how powerful it was, it would be difficult for him to withstand it. With a low roar, the True Dragon Sword flew out from his palm.
Invincible Sword Intent instantly enveloped the entire herb mountain. In the blink of an eye, all the sword cultivators on the mountain could no longer control the swords in their hands and gathered.
The Sword Saint was the emperor of the sword. As long as he gave the order, no sword in the world would dare to go against him.
Weng!
Hundreds of swords gathered in the air and smashed into the flames in the air.
The world shook as Sword Intent and flames swept in all directions.
"Right at this moment..."
Su Yin turned into a sword again and stabbed at the Inferno Saint in the air.
This was the moment when the other party's power clashed with the hundreds of swords. Before the new power could be generated, the old power was exhausted. The Myriad Swords Return to Origin earlier was to create this opportunity.
With the Rules of Sword surrounding him, Su Yin turned into a brilliant assassin again. The distance between the two of them was several hundred meters.
"Sneak attack? Dream on!"
The Inferno Saint grabbed at the air and a giant flaming blade slashed down.
This blade was extremely powerful. As soon as it appeared, space was cut open and it went straight for Su Yin.
The reason why the Inferno Saint did not use it earlier was that he wanted to catch the young man off guard and kill him in one blow.
As expected of a Saint who had lived for countless years. Every time he attacked, he had a trump card and ultimate move. It was unknown how powerful he was.
However, Su Yin had already guessed what he was going to do. Even if he could not, there were still 36 experienced Ancient Saints in his consciousness. With a flip of his wrist, the corpse of the Storm Saint appeared in front of the giant blade.
Bam!
The blade landed on it with a roar like a rag bag. Su Yin's Invincible Sword Will was not obstructed at all. In a flash, it also appeared at the throat of the Inferno Saint.
The Sword Will surged into his meridians and suddenly exploded.
Boom!
Red clouds appeared in the sky again, and blood rained down. The second Saint had fallen!
After putting away the corpse of the Inferno Saint, Su Yin panted heavily, his face a little pale.
Although his combat strength was strong, his true cultivation was still only that of a Demi-Saint. Killing two Saints in a row was obviously beyond what he could bear. His meridians were in pain as if they were being torn apart, and the Genuine Qi in his body was chaotic like paste.
"Let's go..."
From the time he attacked the Storm Saint to now, it had been less than ten breaths. Su Yin grabbed Lu Qiuran again and continued to rush toward the place where Lu Kang was cultivating in seclusion.
Two breaths later, he stopped outside a closed room.
"This is the place where Teacher cultivated in seclusion..." Lu Qiuran gritted her teeth.
"That fellow sure is resilient," Su Yin said with a cold look in his eyes.
How did this Lu Kang manage to refine his bones in the place where his teacher had gone into seclusion back then without the slightest psychological burden?
"Why can't I open it?"
Lu Qiuran walked up to Lu Kang and pressed on the switch of the seal.
She had lived here for many years, and as she was in charge of cleaning, she knew how to enter every single room. However, the same method did not work at all at this moment.
"Given how cunning that fellow is, there's no way he would trust anyone. He must have changed the method to open the secret room..."
Su Yin shook his head and said, "Senior, step back. I'll break this place open with brute force!"
"Alright!" Lu Qiuran took a few steps back and made way for Zhang Xuan.
Su Yin took a deep breath and raised his eyebrows. He raised the sword in his hand once more and a vigorous sword intent surged within his body. Just as he was about to hack down on the seal before him, he felt dense Spiritual Energy descending from the sky and rapidly gathering within the cave.
Hong long long!
Dark clouds appeared in the sky, and countless bolts of lightning began to gather. Dazzling bolts of lightning swept away the crimson clouds from before. The rain of blood also came to a halt, and a heavy pressure filled the air.
"It's the Sage Ordeal! Lu Kang has already assimilated Teacher's remains and is pushing for a breakthrough to Celestial Saint!"
Lu Qiuran's body stiffened, and her face turned ghastly pale.
