The sky gradually darkened. At dusk, the afterglow of the setting sun dyed Phoenix Sky City a golden red.
In the Eternal Temple, the dagger fragment in Jun Wu Xie's hand had been melted into liquid. The energy within was extracted and absorbed. Through the Primeval Golden Body Technique, it was converted into the vital blood essence needed to cultivate the body.
This energy was too pure. The blood essence derived from it was naturally incomparable to the Lesser Spiritual Pills he had consumed in the past.
He could clearly feel that his cultivation level was rising at a terrifying speed.
When night fell, his cultivation level had broken through from the second transformation to the third transformation. His vitality and physical strength had reached a new level!
At the same time.
On a tall building on a street near the treasure house, a few tall figures stood in the darkness, quietly watching a carriage in the treasure house's parking area.
"Steward Yuan Ji, please remember your promise," a figure said to the dark house behind him.
A middle-aged man with cold eyes walked out. He glanced at the figure who spoke and said, "Don't worry. I won't go back on my promise."
"There's one more thing." The figure pondered and said, "Although we left the mercenary group to complete the mission, if the treasure house really wants to blame us …"
"Don't worry. When the time comes, I will appear. I believe the treasure house will not disrespect the Hunter's Guild," Yuan Ji said.
… …
On a tall tower on another street, the Wen Family's experts had long been lying in wait.
"Family Head, there's a group of people in the dark. They should be targeting Jun Wu Xie. We can sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, waiting for the best opportunity to strike."
"Looks like we don't have to wait until we get on the cloud ship." Wen Yue said coldly, "Wait for that group of people to strike and lure out Jun Wu Xie. When the two guards from the treasure house are attracted, you guys will seize the opportunity and kill him with lightning speed!"
"Heh! As long as he appears, a Connate Realm martial artist will have no chance of survival under the attack of two experts at the eighth transformation of the Qi Condensation Realm! But if the treasure house pursues this matter … "
Wen Yue was very confident and said, "Our Wen Family is one of the four great families of Phoenix Sky City. We buy many things from the treasure house every year! Moreover, our Wen Family is their bronze VIP. Even if the treasure house pursues this matter, it won't be too much. "
… …
Eternal Temple.
"What do you feel?"
The mysterious woman in the ancient pagoda said.
"Killing intent."
Jun Wu Xie closed his eyes, refined the blood essence, and continued cultivating.
"That's right. Two directions, 260 meters and 280 meters away from you. Murderous Qi is aggressive. Although it is different from Weapon Intent, a Weapon Dao Grandmaster can sense it from a long distance away. "
"Yuan Ji and the Wen family are worried that they won't have a chance to kill me after I join the Daiga Ken Sect in the capital. So, they're willing to offend the treasure house and make a move here. They're quite determined."
The corners of Jun Wu Xie's mouth curled up into a cold smile. Surging blood essence energy flowed along his eight extraordinary meridians and ran through his limbs and bones, nourishing and tempering every inch of his flesh and blood.
With each cycle, the amount of Blood Qi that could be stored in his body would increase by a little. His meridians would also be expanded, and their toughness would be strengthened.
The night deepened.
The silhouettes on the tall building moved. They jumped down quietly and moved stealthily under the cover of the night.
"Young Master Jun, no matter what happens, stay in the carriage and don't come out."
The two guards had sharp senses. Cold light flashed in their eyes as they whispered to the carriage.
"Clang!"
A long sword drew a cold sword light, illuminating the dark night. The target wasn't the carriage, but one of the guards.
"How dare you behave atrociously in the treasure house. You're courting death!"
One of the guards drew his saber and blocked the sword light. He collided with the man in black who was approaching him with a sword.
Almost at the same time, a long spear stabbed at the other guard like a snake.
The sneak attack in the middle of the night had begun!
The sounds of metal clashing, true energy colliding, clanging, and rumbling could be heard incessantly.
"Die!"
A dazzling saber light fell from the sky and slashed at the carriage.
The third man in black made a move.
The saber in his hand flowed with the light of runes. The saber Qi he slashed was three meters long, and the killing intent was overwhelming!
Inside the carriage, Jun Wu Xie, who had broken through to the fourth transformation of the Connate Realm, suddenly opened his eyes.
In the next moment, he disappeared from the carriage and soared to the roof of the carriage. He faced the saber light with a punch.
"Boom!"
The saber light collapsed, but the saber still slashed down.
He clasped his hands together, holding the saber firmly in his hands.
"You do have some skills!"
The man in black pressed down fiercely. The runes on the saber shone and True Qi burst out, causing Jun Wu Xie's hands to sink. The saber was less than an inch away from his forehead!
"However, a mere Connate Realm cultivator is still too weak for me!"
The man in black continued to pour in True Qi. Jun Wu Xie's hands sank again, and the saber was even closer to his head.
"Now is the time. Attack!"
Wen Yue, who was hiding in the tower, ordered.
Beside him, two figures flew down, like two ghosts in the dark night.
When they were dozens of meters away, they soared into the sky like two goshawks. A palm print blasted at Jun Wu Xie who was in danger.
The man in black who was about to behead his target was shocked. He didn't expect that there was still an oriole hiding in the dark.
However, he found that Jun Wu Xie's expression was very abnormal. The corner of his mouth was curled up in a sneer, and his eyes had become extremely cold at this moment.
"Clang!"
The man in black felt the saber in his hand tremble violently. A terrifying force surged through the saber. His body seemed to have been hit by a flood, and he was instantly sent flying. He spat out a mouthful of blood.
What frightened him the most was that the saber in his hand was covered in cracks, and it broke into pieces in an instant!
This was a one-star upper grade Spirit Weapon!
Almost at the same time, his pupils shrank. He saw that a Spirit Bow had appeared in Jun Wu Xie's hand!
"That's Sixth Brother's weapon!"
He recognized that bow. It was the weapon of the Sixth Leader of their mercenary group.
"Buzz!"
The Spirit Bow was fully drawn. The runes on it were resplendent. An arrow infused with golden Blood Qi streaked across the sky like lightning.
Just as the two experts from the Wen Clan were about to reach him …
The arrow flashed.
It pierced through the chest of one of the Wen Family experts. Blood splattered everywhere.
The powerful force of the arrow sent the Wen Family expert flying several hundred meters away. It embedded itself into the left pillar in front of the entrance of the treasure house. The tail of the arrow was buzzing.
The moment Jun Wu Xie shot the arrow, he moved several dozen meters away, drew the bow again, and shot the second arrow!
The second master of the Wen family struck the air with his palm. Before he could react, the arrow pierced through his neck like a bolt of lightning.
Blood splattered far away.
In the same direction, the second Wen Family expert was sent flying several hundred meters away by the arrow. He was nailed into the right pillar in front of the entrance of the treasure house.
It all happened too quickly.
From the black-clothed man attacking the carriage, to the Wen Family expert's sneak attack, to Jun Wu Xie's palm shattering the saber and killing the two men.
The two guards of the treasure house saw the corners of their eyes twitch.
Yuan Ji, who was hiding in a tall building on the neighboring street, had a face full of shock. Inside the tall tower, Wen Yue's eyes twitched, his face as heavy as water.
How could a Xiantian Realm martial artist be so ridiculously strong?!
Those were experts in the Eighth Transformation of the Qi Condensation Realm. They were actually killed in an instant!
"Let's go!"
The two black-clothed men who were restraining the guards of the treasure house saw Jun Wu Xie draw the bow again and were almost scared out of their wits. They turned and wanted to escape.
