After Su Wuchen circulated the Chaos Overlord Body Technique and devoured everyone's power, he found a secluded spot to cultivate, converting the energy into his own.
Half an hour later.
His cultivation base had advanced from the seventh level of the Blood Accumulation Realm to the eighth level!
Meanwhile.
Lu Shan and Su Fangfang finally arrived at the scene.
Upon seeing the corpses of Zhang Fan, Liu Ziwen, and all the Su family experts reduced to ash, Lu Shan and Su Fangfang were dumbfounded.
"This is the Fifth Elder's relic, could it be... their bodies turned to ash after they were killed?"
Su Fangfang picked up a familiar necklace from the ground, her face filled with shock as she turned to Lu Shan. "Senior Brother Lu Shan, how could their deaths be so bizarre?"
Lu Shan seemed to realize something, his face turning grim. "Yesterday, when I had Su Wuchen by the throat, I don't know what kind of sorcery he used, but he actually devoured the energy in my body, breaking free from my grip. Perhaps their deaths are all related to him!"
Su Fangfang was startled. "You mean… this is Su Wuchen's doing?"
"Yes, this kid is indeed a bit strange!"
Lu Shan nodded slightly, his eyes filled with killing intent. "However, he dared to kill our Luo Tian Sect disciples. No matter where he tries to hide, there will be no place for him to escape!"
"Once I catch him, I will make him wish he could live and wish he could… die!"
Meanwhile.
Su Wuchen, feeling the surging energy within his body, wore a look of joy. "This Chaos Overlord Body Technique and the Chaos Divine Cauldron are incredibly helpful in boosting my cultivation!"
"At this rate, I might actually break through to the Heavenly Martial Realm within a year!"
"However, even though I've reached the eighth level of the Blood Accumulation Realm, I still can't beat Lu Shan with my current strength."
"To defeat Lu Shan, who is at the first level of the Mortal Martial Realm, I must break through to the tenth level of the Blood Accumulation Realm!"
"Looks like I'll have to hunt even stronger demonic beasts!"
The area he was in was always the outermost region of the Black幽 Forest.
He could still handle the demonic beasts in this area.
But if he wanted to increase his cultivation in a short time, he had to hunt stronger demonic beasts.
So.
He had to move closer to the center of the forest to encounter even more powerful demonic beasts.
With that thought, he set off, heading towards the center of the forest.
However, after advancing ten miles towards the forest's center, he suddenly stopped.
Because at this moment…
He had actually encountered a Third-Order demonic beast!
It was a wolf-shaped demonic beast with a golden horn on its head, standing over two meters tall, and cultivated to the Third-Order, Second Layer.
Golden Horned Black Wolf!
Its strength was equivalent to a human expert at the Mortal Martial Realm, Second Layer!
"Can't beat them!"
Su Wuchen wanted to run.
But just then…
"Awoo!"
Following a howl…
More than a dozen demonic beasts leaped out from all sides, surrounding Su Wuchen.
They were all Golden Horned Black Wolves!
Golden Horned Black Wolves were pack animals.
Once any foreign creature entered their territory, they would quickly sense it, relying on their keen sense of smell, and would band together to kill the intruder!
"Looks like this is their territory. I actually walked into a wolf's den!"
Su Wuchen's head was throbbing.
What made him even more desperate was...
These dozen or so Golden Horned Black Wolves were all at the Third Rank of cultivation!
He swallowed hard, his expression immediately turning extremely grave.
He couldn't beat any single one of the Golden Horned Black Wolves here.
But surrounded on all sides, he had no way to escape!
"Looks like I have no choice but to use that Sword Qi!"
Su Wuchen tapped his forehead with two fingers, preparing to unleash the Sword Qi.
That Sword Qi was given to him by Empress Feng Yao.
It could kill any powerful expert on this Desolate Heaven Continent.
He could have used the Sword Qi to kill Lu Shan.
But he didn't think Lu Shan deserved it!
However, he was now in a desperate situation, and he had no choice.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
"Hmm?"
Just then!
Two black shadows suddenly flashed over Su Wuchen's head.
In an instant!
A fierce wind arose all around, whipping up sand and stones, and causing trees to topple.
At the same time!
He was blown away by the strong wind, rolling several times on the ground before stopping, looking rather disheveled.
It looked like the dozen or so Golden Horned Black Wolves that had been attacking him had already been scared off.
He finally exhaled, relieved.
"Clang, clang, clang..."
Suddenly, the sound of metal clashing came from the front, piercingly loud.
Su Wuchen stood up.
He walked over and saw two terrifyingly powerful cultivators engaged in a fierce battle in mid-air, a few hundred meters away. The scene was breathtaking.
There was a man and a woman.
The man held a saber and wore blue robes.
The woman held a sword, dressed in green robes.
In mid-air.
The flashes of blades were chaotic.
Sword Qi surged!
The sharp blades and swords clashed continuously. The residual energy from their battle shattered the surrounding trees and rocks. The scene was utterly terrifying.
"Levitating in the air!"
Su Wuchen was astonished, "This is… a Heavenly Martial Realm expert!"
Without the aid of external objects, a martial artist could only achieve levitation by reaching at least the Heavenly Martial Realm.
Su Wuchen hadn't expected that the man and woman were both terrifying experts at the Heavenly Martial Realm!
And the two black shadows that had just swept over his head were obviously these two people.
Half an hour passed.
The sounds of fighting finally stopped.
In mid-air.
Both of them had varying degrees of knife and sword wounds.
The blue-robed man sneered, "Nangong Qingyun, you've already been hit by my Yin Yang Soul Dissolving Powder!"
"Even if your cultivation is high, you won't be able to get rid of the effects of the medicine!"
"If you continue to force your cultivation, it will not only accelerate the spread of the drug's effects but also cause a backlash."
"You should also be very clear that a woman who has been poisoned by the Yin Yang Soul Dissolving Powder, if she doesn't find a man for Dual Cultivation within half a day, will inevitably bleed from all orifices and eventually explode!"
"However, I can act as your antidote. How about it?"
Nangong Qingyun's exquisite face was flushed with intoxicating redness.
But when she looked at the blue-clothed man opposite her, her eyes were filled with cold contempt: "I didn't expect the dignified Vice Sect Master of the Black Fire Sect to be such a beast in disguise, taking advantage of others' difficulties. Song Wenxiu, you are truly despicable!"
Song Wenxiu didn't take it seriously, "A woman as beautiful as you, which man wouldn't be moved? Which man wouldn't want to sleep with you?"
"Want to sleep with me? You can forget it!"
Nangong Qingyun's face was as cold as frost, her teeth clenched, "Even if I die, I won't let a disgusting thing like you touch me!"
"That's not up to you!"
Song Wenxiu licked his lips, a greedy, evil grin on his face. "Qingyun, darling, are you feeling hot all over now?"
"Don't worry, in less than fifteen minutes, after the medicine takes full effect, you'll be begging me to be your antidote, just like a well-behaved bitch. Haha..."
Nangong Qingyun was completely enraged by Song Wenxiu's words. "Song Wenxiu, you're courting death!"
She gripped her sword with her right hand, her left hand began to constantly twist her fingers, forming a strange hand seal with one hand.
"Nine Heavens Wind and Thunder, Shocking the Universe!"
"Mysterious Weapon Sword Draws, Sword Qi is Vast!"
Nangong Qingyun's eyes were cold and sharp, and her aura suddenly doubled.
A terrifying gale suddenly erupted in the air above her head, raging and sweeping across the heavens!
""Wind and Thunder Sword Technique", First Form, Wind Style: Wind Blade Sword Kill!"
As soon as she finished speaking, those gusts of wind instantly condensed into thousands of wind blades, ruthlessly slashing towards Song Wenxiu.
"She's been hit with the Yin Yang Soul Dissolving Powder, and yet she still dares to forcefully use her energy to execute this kind of swordsmanship. What a crazy woman!"
Song Wenxiu gritted his teeth and angrily cursed inwardly. Then, his body shook violently, and a surge of powerful spiritual energy erupted from within, enveloping his entire body and forming an energy shield, switching from offense to defense.
In an instant!
The thousands of wind blades continuously slammed into the energy shield, producing booming sounds.
Ten breaths later.
A crack immediately appeared on the energy shield.
Then came two, three, four, five, six...
A moment later.
Boom!
The entire energy shield shattered completely!
The last few wind blades continued to slash towards Song Wenxiu.
Song Wenxiu's expression changed drastically!
He dodged to the side.
But he still hadn't completely dodged.
Whoosh!
His right arm was instantly severed, flying away.
"Aaaargh…"
Song Wenxiu howled in agony.
Then, with a pained expression, he looked at Nangong Qingyun and said, "The power of the Wind and Thunder Sword Technique is indeed terrifying! It truly deserves to be the highest sword technique of the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect!"
"Nangong Qingyun, I concede today!"
Nangong Qingyun was already fighting him to the death.
But he didn't plan to continue entangling with this crazy woman. Otherwise, he might lose his life, which wouldn't be worth it.
"Nangong Qingyun, don't think you've won!"
"You've been poisoned with the Yin Yang Soul Dissolving Powder. If you don't engage in Dual Cultivation with a man, you'll be dead within an hour!"
"I won't keep you company any longer!"
"You crazy woman, just wait for your death obediently, haha..."
After saying that, he turned and quickly darted away into the distance.
"Don't even think about running!"
Nangong Qingyun angrily chased after him.
But after flying only a few hundred meters, her delicate body shuddered violently, and a mouthful of blood spewed from her mouth.
Following that.
Her vision blurred, and she passed out, falling from mid-air.
Finally, her body crashed into a small lake within the forest.
