Volume 1 Chapter 174: Massacre Begins
Yang Feng entered the interior of Ci Hang Jing and found that the space inside was extremely large, and he couldn't see the edge at all. Although it was inside the Emperor's Peak, it wasn't dark here. The entire space was as bright as the outside, but this brightness didn't come from torches or because the space was filled with night pearls. Anyway, he didn't know where the light came from, and it illuminated the interior of this space just like the outside.
And the space inside Ci Hang Jing Zhai was even more spiritual than outside, several times thicker than the air on Emperor Treading Peak. Yang Feng followed the trail of Jing Yao and others, quickly absorbing the spiritual energy in the air, knowing that a fierce battle would soon ensue, and it would be better to absorb and store as much spiritual energy as possible beforehand.
Yang Feng had been paying attention to the Tianmo Sect's Ba Tian and Fengdu Ghost King outside, but he hadn't noticed anyone coming over. Yang Feng didn't know if they had come or not, but since he had already made his move, there was no turning back now; all he could do was press forward.
The interior of the Cihang Jingyi was filled with spiritual energy, and as a result, all sorts of spiritual herbs and plants were growing everywhere. The age of these spiritual objects seemed to be very old. Yang Feng naturally wouldn't let them go to waste, as he needed a large amount of spiritual energy to cultivate his Nine Turns Profound Skill. These spiritual objects had absorbed the spiritual energy here and grown, so they were also concentrated with a lot of spiritual energy. They would come in handy for future cultivation.
Yang Feng was chasing after Jing Yao and the others while using the Sleeve of Dry Heaven technique to absorb all the spiritual objects they encountered along the way. Due to Yang Feng's current low cultivation level, the space within the Sleeve of Dry Heaven wasn't very large either, so it quickly filled up after collecting a few items. He then had Bai Qi and Zhao Kuo help him collect the spiritual objects, and wherever the three of them passed by, all the lingzhi mushrooms, ginseng, he shou wu, and other spiritual objects disappeared without a trace, all entering their pockets!
A series of temples appeared ahead, and Yang Feng knew that this was the location of the Ci Hang Jing Zhai sect. He stopped searching and sped up towards the front. When he arrived at the temple, he found that many disciples of Ci Hang Jing Zhai had already gathered there, all of whom were women. Yang Feng also saw Jing Yao, but at this time, Jing Yao was standing in front of a nun-like woman, waiting for Yang Feng's arrival.
That nun was none other than Jingyao's master, Miao Zhen Shitai. Upon receiving Jingyao's message that Yang Feng had broken through the mountain protection array and entered Cihang Jingzhai, she immediately became enraged and rushed out with her disciples.
Miao Zhen Shitai looked at Yang Feng who had come before her and found that he was indeed the same as what his beloved disciple Jing Yao had said. He had reached the late stage of the Golden Elixir in such a short period of time, and upon observing Yang Feng's facial features, she also discovered that there was a purple aura rising from his brow, confirming that he was indeed the true Dragon Son recognized by the Purple Aura. She secretly regretted that Yang Feng possessed the Asura Demon Eye, making it impossible to recruit him, and since this child had progressed so rapidly, he could not be allowed to remain in the world. Therefore, she could only eliminate him now.
When Miao Zhen Shitai had such an idea, she had already moved her murderous intention, and with the murderous intention, she naturally flowed out a killing aura. Although her killing aura was only a hint, it was very subtle, but she didn't think that there was a White Qi who entered the Tao with murder here. Miao Zhen Shitai's killing aura was not noticed by others, but it did not escape White Qi's perception. Suddenly, a vast and powerful killing aura burst out from White Qi's body, causing everyone in Ci Hang Jing An to tremble in their hearts. Those with lower cultivation were even frightened to the point of fainting on the spot!
How many people did Bai Qi kill back then? The killing aura on his body is not something that ordinary people can withstand! Even Miao Zhen Shifu, who had already reached the late stage of Yuan Shen, was almost overwhelmed by her heart and soul at that moment. Fortunately, she practiced the Buddhist Dharma's mental method, so her heart and soul were stronger than those of others in the same realm, which is why she only barely lost control. However, being on the verge of losing control of her heart and soul was already enough to shock Miao Zhen Shifu. She couldn't believe that with her level of strength, she almost couldn't withstand the killing aura emanating from this person! Who is he?! What realm has his strength reached?!
Miao Zhen Shitai stared at Bai Qi, who had just emitted a powerful killing aura, but found that she couldn't see through his cultivation level. Moreover, standing beside Bai Qi was Zhao Kuo, whose strength Miao Zhen Shitai also couldn't gauge. This made Miao Zhen Shitai even more shocked in her heart. She never thought that Yang Feng would have two such powerful helpers. Inwardly, Miao Zhen Shitai began to worry, it seemed that today's matter wouldn't be easy to handle after all.
Yang Feng didn't quite understand why Bai Qi would suddenly erupt with such intense killing intent, but he didn't ask any questions either. He knew that the My True Master in front of him wasn't someone he could handle, and he wouldn't go forward to show off. Today's goal was only one thing, which was to bring Guo Meimei back, so it didn't matter who took action, as long as they could achieve their purpose in the end. So when Bai Qi erupted with such intense killing intent, Yang Feng retreated to the side and left the battlefield to Bai Qi.
At this time, a long knife had appeared in Bai Qi's hand, its blade narrow and slender, with a length of over one and a half meters, emitting a piercing cold glow. On the blade was a blood groove, which was red in color, clearly stained with too much fresh blood. Bai Qi himself wasn't very tall, but holding this long knife that was over one and a half meters long made him look somewhat unusual. However, no one could underestimate Bai Qi's presence, for on his body, an almost palpable killing aura was fiercely impacting the hearts of all the Clear Void Sect disciples.
"Lao Zhao, I recall that when we were first designed, there was Ci Hang Jing Zhai, right?! We've been trapped for over twenty years because of them. Don't you think we should settle this account with them?! Ah, it's been decades since I last used my old friend here, and it must be eager to taste fresh blood again!" Bai Qi stroked the blade of his long knife as he spoke to Zhao Kuo standing beside him.
Zhao Kuai smiled after hearing Bai Qi's words, then said to Bai Qi, "Old Bai, these two thousand years of brotherhood haven't been in vain, you and I are on the same page!" After Zhao Kuai finished speaking, a long spear suddenly appeared in his hand. The spear was pitch black, with a tip that was one and a half feet long, and had a black dragon carved on the handle, giving off an air of grandeur. Moreover, the entire body of the spear emitted a faint black aura, which was none other than the Youming Ghost Qi that Zhao Kuai had cultivated.
Bai Qi listened to Zhao Gou's words, and on his usually icy face, a rare smile appeared, then he didn't say anything else. He simply raised the long knife in his hand and slashed it at Miao Zhen Shitai in front of him. This slash was so sudden that no one had any time to react. A silver-white blade aura several hundred meters long burst out from Bai Qi's long knife, shooting straight towards Miao Zhen Shitai.
Miao Zhen Shitai did not expect Bai Qi to launch a surprise attack without even a greeting, and in the brief moment, she was unable to summon the flying sword within her body. Fortunately, she had a defensive immortal robe on her, which she wore, and at the moment when the sword aura approached, she activated her true yuan power, forming a protective shield around her body. However, despite this, Bai Qi's knife aura still broke through her defense, striking her defensive immortal robe, and although most of the energy was blocked by the robe, the remaining small portion of invasive force still caused her to cough up a large mouthful of blood!
But anyway, spitting blood is better than losing one's life. Miao Zhen Shitai spat out a big mouthful of blood but managed to keep her own life, however, her disciples weren't so lucky. Under Bai Qi's astonishingly sharp blade, all the disciples who were in front of the blade's trajectory were either cut in half or already torn into pieces. Jing Yao was quick-witted and dodged to one side the moment Bai Qi's long sword emitted its blade energy, thus managing to save her own life! However, although Jing Yao escaped quickly enough, she still got invaded by a part of the blade energy's power, causing her to spit out several mouthfuls of fresh blood before stopping.
Miao Zhen Shitai looked at the corpses of her disciples scattered all over the ground, and suddenly she was a bit stunned. Her heart burned with boundless anger, but what made her angry was not the death of these disciples, but that someone dared to kill in the Ci Hang Jing An for thousands of years! Although Ci Hang Jing An is not as powerful as Kunlun Sect and Shu Shan Jian Pai, it is also a major sect ranked third in the entire Xiu Zhen world. Since its establishment, no one has ever dared to be wild here, let alone kill anyone!
But now the impossible has happened, and not only did they kill, but also killed so many! This is a great shame! Miao Zhen Shitai was furious, with anger burning in her heart, she had already forgotten that she might not be a match for the two people in front of her. She summoned the flying sword from within her body and controlled it to stab towards Bai Qi.
Bai Qi was just about to draw his sword to counter Miao Zhen's flying sword, but Zhao Kuo had already stood in front of Bai Qi, holding a long spear and saying with his back to Bai Qi, "Old Bai, one must be magnanimous, this show can't all be stolen by you alone, it's also time for me to take a turn!"
Bai Qi listened to Zhao Kuo's words without any rebuttal, but took a step back with his own actions to express his opinion. Zhao Kuo, who was facing away from Bai Qi, seemed to have seen Bai Qi's movement and smiled, then swung his long spear like a snake emerging from its lair, and thrust it towards Miao Zhen Shitai's flying sword.
Zhao Kuang's long spear swung out to meet Miao Zhen Shitai's flying sword. The moment the tip of Zhao Kuang's spear touched Miao Zhen Shitai's flying sword, a burst of black energy exploded from the tip of Zhao Kuang's spear, wrapping around Miao Zhen Shitai's flying sword. Then, Miao Zhen Shitai's flying sword began to shake violently and emitted a mournful whine. The flying sword fell to the ground, and the black energy on its body disappeared. When they looked again at Miao Zhen Shitai's flying sword, it could no longer be called a flying sword. The originally radiant sword was now dull and dark, with pits and holes all over its surface, having been corroded by the black energy into something unrecognizable.
However, at the moment when the flying sword fell to the ground, Miao Zhen Shitai, who had been practicing with Fei Jian Xingyue, not only spat out several mouthfuls of blood, but her entire face turned deathly pale, clearly having suffered a severe injury!
Bai Qi and Zhao Gou, the two of them, each made a move, not only killing many disciples of Ci Hang Jing Zhu, but also severely injuring the leader, Miao Zhen Shifu.
I don't know how the people of Xiūzhēnjiè would react if they knew about this! Of course, Bái Qǐ and Zhào Kuò wouldn't care about what kind of sensation this news would cause; right now they just want to think of a way to take revenge on Cí Hángjìng for the two thousand years they were trapped, other things are not within their consideration!
Watching Bai Qi and Zhao Kuo who had already started a massacre, watching their powerful strength, Yang Feng couldn't help but show off his skills. With both hands grasping the demon knife, Yang Feng's figure disappeared from the original place, and when he reappeared next time, it was among those female disciples of Ci Hang Jing Zhai who had escaped once. Although those disciples were all women, Yang Feng still used the demon knife in his hand to start harvesting their lives.
It's not Yang Feng's fault for being ruthless and merciless, if anyone is to blame, it's those women who chose the wrong sect!
