Time would never stop for a single person. It would only silently move forward. In the blink of an eye, ten days had quietly passed by Wan Sheng since he entered the Zither Realm.
"Bang, bang, bang!!"
There were all kinds of trees everywhere in the Zither Realm. Most of them could be made into musical instruments, such as pipa, purple bamboo, and so on. They were all different and varied, but one thing was that almost all of the species here were good materials for making musical instruments. It could be seen that the Zither Realm was worthy of being called the Zither Realm. It really had a meaning.
At this moment, sword light shot out in all directions in this mountain forest. Amidst the rumbling sounds, ancient trees that had been growing for an unknown number of years were cut into pieces by the sword light. There were also many ancient trees that were incomparably tough, and the sword light couldn't instantly cut through them. Behind the sword light, there was a blood-red cloud that was incomparably dense, and emitted an endless stench of blood as it whistled through the air.
The sword light cut through the blood-red cloud, but it only caused the cloud to roll a few times before it swallowed up the sword light. The things that were enveloped by the blood-red cloud withered one after another, as if all of their vitality had been sucked out. It was a terrifying sight.
"Tsk, tsk, you're just a mere rogue cultivator. Under this young master's Blood Cloud Banner, you want to escape from the palm of my hand? What a joke. If you know what's good for you, quickly stop and hand over the artifact embryo in your hand. Perhaps I'll leave your corpse intact. Otherwise, when I catch up to you, I'll directly refine you and your soul into my precious banner. There are some things that you can't covet. " In the blood-red cloud, a young man in blood-red clothes had a strange smile on his face. He waved a mysterious banner in his hand.
This banner could be described as evil and awe-inspiring. It was blood-red all over, as if it had been repeatedly soaked in blood. On the banner, there was a rolling blood-red cloud that was constantly rolling. It was so red that it seemed as if blood was about to drip out. It was really terrifying. In the blood-red cloud, there were faint blood-red skulls that were moving up and down malevolently. They let out strange cries, and their empty eyes revealed a faint blood-red light.
The entire banner had a layer of terrifying evil energy rolling out. It made people feel as if their souls were about to leave their bodies with a single glance. With a casual wave, the blood-red cloud rolled out. It was obvious that this was definitely an evil artifact of the evil path. It was an evil weapon that devoured people's blood essence and souls.
Its name was the Blood Cloud Banner, and it was extremely powerful. When it was waved, a blood cloud would appear. Not only could it protect the body, once it pounced on the enemy, it would immediately corrode the enemy's body. The evil souls inside would rush forward, and in an instant, the person would be eaten until not even their bones would be left. Legend has it that this banner was refined using the blood essence of an unborn baby in a pregnant woman's body using various cruel secret techniques.
It was the most powerful magic artifact of the Blood Cloud Clan's disciples, and only the elite disciples knew how to forge it. It was said that when a magic artifact had become a magic treasure, the blood clouds it produced would be able to cover the heavens and cover the earth, possessing boundless power. It had always been nurtured as a life-bound dharma artifact.
It was unknown how much blood essence and souls had been devoured by this staff. From the looks of it, it was probably already a high-grade or top-grade magic tool. Its might was extremely terrifying.
"Pooh! Your Blood Cloud Clan is truly despicable and shameless. Are you really not afraid that someone will expose your filthy actions in the zither domain? If the Qin Family were to know of this, they would definitely not forgive you. If you want the artifact embryo in my hands, why don't you go fight those weird demonic souls yourself? Even if I die today, I won't give it to you. "
Within the sword-light ahead was shockingly a thin and weak man. This youth's face carried traces of grief and indignation. From the looks of it, he would definitely not hand it over. Beneath his feet was a golden flying sword, and in his hands was a similar flying sword. They flew up and down, emitting streaks of sword-light. As they fled, they unceasingly slashed towards the blood-red cloud behind them.
Looking at this thin and weak cultivator's cultivation base, he was actually at the late Qi Refinement stage, only a step away from Foundation Establishment.
His clothes were tattered, and it could be seen that he was in a rather wretched state.
The one chasing closely behind him was none other than the Blood Cloud Clan's Young Lord, Xue Yinyi. At this moment, his face was filled with savagery, his gaze bloodthirsty.
"Young Lord, he won't be able to escape."
Just as they were fleeing, they saw two blood-red clouds suddenly appear in front of them. Those were Xue Da and Xue Er. They didn't chase together, so they had taken a detour to the front. He stood in front of the skinny man, blocking his escape route on the spot. Together with Xue Yinyi behind them, the three of them had already surrounded the thin and weak man.
Seeing this, a resolute expression appeared on the thin and weak man's face. Knowing that he wouldn't be able to escape this time, he could only land his sword-light on an empty space, hatefully glaring at the three of them.
"Today, I'll fight you to the death. Even if I die, I won't let you have an easy time. Dual Swords Flying Together, Sword Slaying Flood Dragon!! "
With a shout, the thin and weak man didn't hesitate in the slightest. There was no longer any hope in his heart. His eyes emitted a deranged expression, and his hands formed a sword art, displaying his strongest sword art without hesitation. All the spiritual energy in his body poured into the dual swords without reservation.
"Weng weng!!"
The two golden flying swords shuddered as they received the massive amount of spiritual energy, emitting intense sword-light that rapidly intertwined with each other. Golden light flickered, and a pair of golden scissors silently appeared, instantly enlarging. The scissors turned, not cutting towards Xue Yinyi, but towards Xue Da on the left.
This scissors was extremely powerful, having the aura of wanting to cut through the heavens. Carrying a golden light, it was incomparably fast, arriving before Xue Da in an instant, the scissors cutting into the blood-red clouds beside him.
"Kacha!!"
A light sound rang out. This strike was virtually the full power of the thin and weak man. When a late Qi Refinement cultivator who was only a step away from Foundation Establishment became vicious, it was rather frightening. Under the scissors, the golden light twisted, and the sticky blood-red clouds were actually cut into two. Xue Da clearly hadn't expected such a thing to happen. His body within the blood-red clouds only had time to turn sideways, and his left arm was cut off.
"You're courting death!!"
Xue Yinyi licked his lips, emitting a bloodthirsty light. The Blood Cloud Banner in his hand spun, and the blood-red clouds that filled the sky immediately rushed towards the thin and weak man. A series of miserable screams rang out from within the blood-red clouds. In the blink of an eye, there was no sound.
"Crash!!"
The Blood Cloud Banner rolled, and the blood-red clouds were sucked into the banner like a whale sucking in water. Looking at the ground, not even the thin and weak man's corpse was left behind. It was clear that after the Blood Cloud Banner swallowed him, the blood-red clouds inside grew even larger, and their power increased by a large margin.
On the ground, only two golden flying swords and a storage pouch were left.
Xue Yinyi walked forward and took the storage pouch in his hand. With a swipe of his hand, he broke the seal, and with a flash of light, a purple bamboo flute with overwhelming spiritual energy appeared in his hand.
He sneered, "You really overestimate yourself. A mere rogue cultivator wants to possess such a treasure. Only I, Xue Yinyi, am worthy of possessing such a precious artifact embryo." With that, he turned to look at Xue Da. Seeing his severed arm, he frowned slightly, "Xue Da, how are your injuries? Can you continue to fight? "
Perhaps the first sentence of concern was just in passing, but the second sentence was his true meaning.
"Don't worry, Young Master. As long as this subordinate returns to the sect, my arm will recover. Even if I fight now, it won't be a problem. I definitely won't delay Young Master from collecting such an artifact embryo," Xue Da said without hesitation.
"That's right, Young Master. The zither realm is truly mysterious. Any one of the artifact embryos here are rare treasures outside. As long as you refine it into a formation, it'll become a top-notch magic artifact. It's too precious. If you take it back, it'll definitely stabilize Young Master's position in the sect, "Xue Er cried out excitedly.
Xue Yinyi only nodded slightly. A trace of darkness appeared on his face, "Although I've found these treasures, I don't know where that Di Shitian brat is hiding. After searching for so many days, I still haven't found a trace of him. Hmph, even if I have to dig three feet into the ground, this Young Master will dig him out."
He really hadn't forgotten about Di Shitian for even a moment. He had a vengeful temperament. Although it was only because of a single pill art in the Zither Valley, it had already caused him to hold a grudge and want to kill him.
As soon as he entered the zither realm, he constantly searched for Di Shitian's figure, wanting to kill him.
His intentions could only be described as vicious and ruthless!
Speaking of which, in these past few days in the Zither Realm, the situation that Di Shi Tian had encountered before was also encountered by many cultivators. These strange existences, upon discovering an outsider, would immediately launch an attack without hesitation, and were bound to kill the outsider. In the instant that they entered, who knew how many cultivators with slightly weaker cultivations died from this sudden attack.
However, after killing them, their bodies would mysteriously dissipate and turn into Essence Qi that would rush into their Dharma treasures and fall to the ground. They were all different. Some used flutes as Dharma treasures, some used zithers as Dharma treasures. Without exception, these Dharma treasures were all Dharma treasures. High quality Dharma treasures could be refined into powerful Dharma treasures at any time.
Immediately, in the zither realm, they didn't find the Lü Qi Zither. Instead, the cultivators fought and killed each other over these precious embryos. All kinds of fighting were extremely fierce, and the fight just now was only one of many.
"Young Master, we're doing our best to search, but the zither realm is too big. It's also shrouded in fog, so we can't clearly find it, "Xue Da said calmly.
"Rumble!"
At this moment, the ground under their feet suddenly trembled violently. It was as if there was an earthquake, and the rumbling continued. Cracks appeared on the ground like a spider web, and as soon as they appeared, they immediately spread in all directions.
From the cracks under the ground, traces of pitch-black Demonic Qi crazily spewed out.
The huge rocks in the surroundings were all shattered into pieces. A terrifying aura spread out like a tide, as if there was a terrifying ferocious beast breaking free from its shackles and charging out of the ground.
When Xue Yin Yi and the other two saw this, they all looked at each other in dismay … (To be continued, if you want to know what happened after this, please go to www.qidian.com, there are more chapters, support the author, support the original reading!)
