He recalled that day when the usually straightforward Xu Hao promised in front of him that he would become Su Shu's Daoist companion after this matter.
It was rare for this boorish man to be so meticulous. He had secretly purchased the Restriction Breaking Plate that Su Shu had been coveting for a long time.
He had even thoughtfully recorded the words of love that he was too embarrassed to say in front of Su Shu. He was waiting for the day when he would become Su Shu's Daoist companion. Then, he would give it to Su Shu together with the Restriction Breaking Plate.
But now, they were separated forever.
Looking at the dazed Su Shu, Lu Qingshan could only sigh in his heart.
When Xu Hao chose to sacrifice himself to stop Masato Umushi, he was burned to ashes by the furious Masato Umushi's black flames. His appearance could no longer be recognized.
But on his charred skin, there was still blood and flesh that could be seen. That was the wound caused by the explosion of the Thunder Pearl.
Drops of blood oozed out from the wound and scattered on the ground. Then, just like Xu Hao's life, they were quickly swallowed by Shura's Blood Conversion Formation and disappeared.
Xu Hao's burly body gradually shriveled due to his Essence Blood being swallowed.
.....
Cough cough!
Lu Qingshan covered his mouth and coughed twice. When he opened his hand, his palm was scarlet.
The meridians in his body were constantly emitting intense burning pain, causing Lu Qingshan's expression to turn ugly. He hurriedly took out a healing pill and swallowed it. As the pure medicinal energy entered his body, he felt a little better.
This time, in order to kill this Golden Elixir Daoist that had appeared out of nowhere, he had suffered heavy losses.
First, the Weeping Soul Sword that Lu Qingshan had been using was shattered. In addition, under the overload of Spiritual Power, his meridians had also been greatly damaged. He would need to rest for a long time to recover.
As for Lu Qingshan's most powerful attack, the Thunder Pearl, which he had been saving for a long time and wanted to use as a trump card, he had used it all in one go.
The most tragic thing was that after this battle, half of the Tiger Team members had died here.
However, even after paying such a heavy price, Lu Qingshan still felt a little lucky to be able to kill the Golden Elixir Daoist.
If it weren't for the fact that everyone was in a small, sealed stone room, they wouldn't have been able to fully unleash the power of the Lightning Pearl.
If it wasn't for the fact that the Western Rat King had just woken up today, he would have been able to set up the lightning beads without anyone noticing.
If Masato Umushi hadn't exposed some flaws due to his confidence, allowing him to seize the opportunity and buy the time needed to detonate the Lightning Pearl, he wouldn't have been able to do so.
If any of the above three points were missing, even if he was given another hundred lightning pearls today, the one to die would not be Masato Umushi, but them.
This was the Golden Elixir Daoist.
He was still lacking in strength.
Lu Qingshan, who had survived the disaster, sighed in his heart. Only with great strength could there be room for mistakes. It wasn't like now, where as long as there was a slight change, there would be a 90% chance of survival.
Xiao Zhi was still moving the gravel in the ruins, looking for something.
He was looking for the remains of the Li People and Zhong Ming.
As for the formation points, they had already been turned into powder under the bombardment of the Lightning Pearl. This made the Western Rat King's heart ache.
"Go and patrol the surroundings. If there are any changes, immediately inform me." Lu Qingshan instructed the Western Rat King.
Although he knew that it was not wise to stay here at this time, Lu Qingshan did not stop Xiao Zhi's actions.
If he had died here today, Xiao Zhi would definitely do what he was doing now and try his best to find his remains.
Therefore, he had no reason to stop him.
However, at this time, the three of them were obviously not in the right state of mind. Even their chests felt stuffy. Naturally, the task of being on guard could only be handed over to the emotionless Western Rat King.
The sadness and joy of the world were not connected. In this group of people, except for Lu Qingshan, the Western Rat King was not familiar with. The deaths of Xu Hao and the other two were indeed not a reason for him to be sad.
Not to mention that there was a racial difference between them. In fact, as a monster beast, the Western Rat King was different from the Tiger Team cultivators when he saw the tragic scene of various demonic beasts eating people in Zhenjiang City. He did not feel anything at all.
The West Rat King nodded obediently. Just as he was about to move, a ferocious roar suddenly rang out.
Hiss!
A black shadow with a huge dark green fireball shot toward Su Shu, who had already lost her soul.
The ferocious aura was monstrous.
Green Wolf!
The Green Wolf had been tailing them for a long time and did not dare to approach them. After hearing the huge commotion caused by the explosion of the Lightning Pearl, it tentatively moved closer and saw this scene.
The original six people of the Tiger Team had somehow been reduced to three.
One of them was in a daze, standing motionless in the same place. The other was busy in the ruins, his mind drifting. As for the sword cultivator that it had failed to ambush, his breathing was disorderly. It was obvious that he had suffered heavy injuries.
Seeing the situation in front of it, the Green Wolf immediately launched an attack.
It was a wolf's nature, and it was extremely patient. Finally, the opportunity for revenge had arrived.
Whoosh!
As if it had cut through the wind, a flying sword shot out. Its speed was as fast as lightning, and a biting cold might covered the sky and earth.
Pop!
The flying sword directly cut through the dark green fireball, causing it to explode and scatter.
The power of the flying sword did not decrease after piercing through the fireball. It cut into the body of the Green Wolf, who had leaped into the air. The huge impact from the flying sword instantly sent it flying.
A huge gash appeared on the Green Ash Wolf's neck, and fresh red blood flowed out from it.
The Green Wolf, who had suffered a fatal blow, wanted to roar angrily, but it could not. The intense pain from the depths of its throat fiercely blocked its voice.
The Green Wolf stared at Lu Qingshan, who had used his spiritual energy to control the flying sword. Traces of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth. Its fierce eyes were filled with confusion and unwillingness.
Its senses were not wrong. That sword cultivator was indeed heavily injured. But how could he still launch such a fierce attack?
The Green Wolf could not understand.
But it did not have the chance to think anymore. Blood continued to spurt out from the wound on its neck. The large amount of blood loss caused the Green Wolf's vision to turn black. Its body twitched, and its four legs gave way, and it fell to the ground.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! The Peach Wood Sword continuously circled in the air, leaving behind afterimages. Its power was astonishing.
"You beast still want to use a sneak attack? What a joke, "Lu Qingshan snorted coldly as he watched the Green Wolf's huge body fall. He withdrew his Peach Wood Sword.
…
"Return to Ruin Sutra leveled up to lv4. Spiritual Energy Value + 100!"
.....
"Return to Ruin Sutra leveled up to lv4. Spiritual Energy Value + 100!"
"You have leveled up to Middle-stage Foundation Establishment. Divine Sense + 10!"
The moment the Green Wolf attacked, Lu Qingshan poured all the experience he had gained from killing the Golden Elixir Daoist into the Return to Ruin Sutra. It instantly leveled up the technique by four levels.
There were a total of twenty levels in Foundation Establishment techniques. They corresponded to the four minor realms of Foundation Establishment: Early-stage, Middle-stage, Late-stage, and First-stage.
Other than First-stage Foundation Establishment, which was the last two levels, every minor realm was bounded by six levels. The lv4 Return to Ruin Sutra allowed Lu Qingshan to level up to Middle-stage Foundation Establishment.
The first thing that came with the advancement of his grade was the increase of his Divine Sense. His original 10 points of Divine Sense immediately doubled.
Apart from that, as his cultivation gradually increased, the advantages of a Daoist Technique also became apparent.
Every level of the Return to Ruin Sutra increased his spiritual energy by almost twice that of an ordinary technique.
Hence, even though he had just broken through to Middle-stage Foundation Establishment, Lu Qingshan's spiritual energy was already comparable to a Late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator in terms of depth.
In terms of divine sense, Lu Qingshan was weaker than a Late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator. However, in terms of the purity of his spiritual energy, due to the Return to Ruin Sutra, Lu Qingshan was superior to a Late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Overall, in terms of cultivation, he was no different from a Late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator when he had just entered Middle-stage Foundation Establishment.
Under such circumstances, the might of the flying sword he shot out with his lv4 Flying Sword Technique was self-evident.
It was not strange for him to kill the Green Wolf, who had not made any defensive preparations, with a single strike.
