162 Stealth Mode
Jiang Ming stared at the fire lotus symbol embroidered on the chests of the three people, and his eyes narrowed.
What a coincidence!
If it were not for the fact that no one knew of his whereabouts, Jiang Ming would really think that these people were here for revenge.
Opposite Jiang Ming, the eyes of the five people all had a strange glint, as if they had suddenly seen something dirty.
The leader of the group was a tall young man. He looked at Jiang Ming who was still standing there and frowned.
“Only those we know can come here. What are you waiting for? get lost!”
“He’s at the sixth level of the Qi Refinement Realm!” Jiang Ming sensed the aura in his body. The other four people were from the fourth to fifth levels of the Qi Refinement Realm. They were all immortal cultivators in the middle stage of the Qi Refinement Realm.
According to Wu Hen, a mid-stage Qi Refinement Realm cultivator was considered a core disciple in any regular force in the world of immortal cultivation. These were probably high-ranked people here.
However, Jiang Ming was still a little curious and asked sincerely, “You guys are immortal cultivators who are now in this world. Aren’t you afraid of me?”
When the tall man heard this, he could not help but show a scornful expression. “Afraid of you? Do you think that we are just ordinary cultivators?”
He stretched out one hand, and his blood Qi condensed into three red blades. They spun above his palm and exuded a sharp aura.
The other two men’s bodies were also filled with exuberant blood Qi. The three Fire Lotus Valley disciples were all Grandmasters.
The three of them looked at Jiang Ming predatorily, like a cat toying with a mouse. It was as if Jiang Ming was some country bumpkin.
As for the two women, they did not seem to be from the Fire Lotus Valley. However, they only looked at the scene calmly.
“Why don’t we just kill him? If he comes back, it will affect our cultivation here.” A woman with an otherworldly temperament spoke with a gentle and soft voice. However, her words were ruthless.
In their eyes, Jiang Ming was just an insignificant pest. He was not a human being.
‘What an exquisite blood Qi control technique.’
Jiang Ming did not feel anything about their words. Instead, he squinted and stared at the blood Qi dancing nimbly in the palm of the tall man.
In Jiang Ming’s perception, these three people’s martial arts comprehension did not seem to have reached the Grandmaster level, but the exuberance and delicate control of their blood Q were beyond ordinary Grandmasters.
“As expected of an immortal cultivation sect with more than a thousand years of history. Their foundation is terrifying. It seems that they have mastered an extraordinary blood Qi control technique.”
Jiang Ming was a little envious. Although the people in front of him were not as skilled in martial arts as he was, their exquisite control of blood Qi was enough to make up for this shortcoming. If they were to fight against an ordinary Grandmaster, their chances of winning would be much higher.
“However, you should still be afraid of me!”
Jiang Ming chuckled internally.
Now that things had come to this, the other side had already shown their daggers. Therefore, what was there to say?
“I’m going to activate stealth mode!”
Jiang Ming stomped his feet, and a big pit suddenly appeared on the surface of the snow. His figure was like a giant eagle flying forward, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of the tall man.
“You’re looking for death!”
The tall man’s face darkened. He raised his hand, and three blades of blood Qi flew out.
Jiang Ming dodged easily. Then, he threw a punch at the tall man’s head.
This person’s blood Qi was not condensed enough. Jiang Ming’s body was enough to withstand it. However, he did not want to scare the others away.
The tall man was also surprised. He did not expect Jiang Ming’s movement technique to be so brilliant. He hurriedly raised his arm to block.
His blood Qi spread out, blowing up a cloud of snow. In an instant, the two had exchanged dozens of blows. Blood Qi collided in a frenzy!
Jiang Ming’s face was solemn. It was as if he was facing an unprecedented enemy!
However, in the eyes of the other cultivators, the most powerful person among them had not been able to take down Jiang Ming immediately. This was terrifying.
The tall man was also extremely shocked and furious. He felt like his pride was being wounded.
“Did we meet a Grandmaster at his peak?” His face was gloomy. He suddenly shouted, “Why are you still watching the fight? Let’s kill this bastard together!”
He firmly believed that he would win if they continued to fight. However, he did not want to embarrass himself in front of the two women.
Upon hearing this, the other two immortal cultivators of the Fire Lotus Valley rushed up and burst out their blood Qi to kill Jiang Ming.
Snow flew everywhere, and the battle became more and more intense.
However, a moment later, the three immortal cultivators of the Fire Lotus Valley were filled with shock and anger.
“What’s going on?”
“How is he still able to hold on?”
Although the three of them had teamed up against Jiang Ming, they still could not defeat him.
Seeing that the three people seemed to be on guard, Jiang Ming quickly took a punch. A trace of blood flowed out of the corner of his mouth. His eyes became more solemn, his face was extremely pale, and beads of sweat oozed from his forehead. He looked like he was on the verge of defeat.
The three’s eyes lit up, and their attacks became more intense.
A short while passed.
“Damn it!”
The three immortal cultivators of the Fire Lotus Valley all looked gloomy as they realized that something was not right.
On the side, the two women’s faces also revealed a look of worry, but they did not dare step forward.
“It seems like the blood Qi of the other two hasn’t reached the Grandmaster realm.” Jiang Ming’s face was pale, but he gritted his teeth and persisted. He casually glanced at the two female cultivators.
Although he had sensed that their blood Qi was weak from the beginning, they were still immortal cultivators. Who knew if they had any means to hide their blood Qi? It was better to be safe.
However, at this time, the three people on the opposite side were fighting with all they had.
“It’s almost time!” Jiang Ming thought to himself and suddenly threw a punch. In the nick of time, it struck the chest of an immortal cultivator.
The man’s chest was immediately blown open. His whole body was sent flying, and he fell powerlessly into the snow, motionless.
“What?”
The remaining two were horrified.
The person in front of them was not a country bumpkin, but a ferocious hunter! He had been waiting for the three of them to fall into his trap.
However, it was too late now.
Jiang Ming killed another immortal cultivator with a single punch.
Only the tall man was left.
In his fear, he was about to burst out his spiritual power!
However, before he could do so, Jiang Ming’s fingers turned into a claw and dug into his lower abdomen. The terrifying force directly destroyed his spiritual core, causing the spiritual power in his body to collapse. He spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.
Although he was still alive thanks to his blood Qi, he had completely lost his combat strength.
Jiang Ming did not relax at all. He threw out two more blades of blood Qi and slashed at the two women.
One of the women did not even have time to react before her chest was pierced through. Her entire body exploded into a mist of blood.
The last woman hurriedly took out a talisman in the nick of time. It turned into a light barrier in front of her.
The blood Qi collided with the light screen and exploded.
As for the woman, there were wounds on her body. She fell to the ground.
Although she managed to block this attack, she was also injured by the laws of this world and was completely crippled.
In an instant, the valley quieted down.
Jiang Ming glanced at the female immortal cultivator who was still alive and nodded with satisfaction.
He had deliberately slowed down his last strike to give her enough time to cast her spell. This woman’s reaction was quite good, and she did not disappoint him.
Jiang Ming slowly walked in front of her.
“S-spare my life. I’ll do anything you want.” She was struggling to move back, and large patches of her soft skin were exposed from her tattered clothes.
However, Jiang Ming did not care.
Jiang Ming shot out two blades of blood Qi and pierced the woman’s slender thighs.
“Stay there and don’t move!”
Then, he turned around and walked to the tall man’s side. He casually picked up one of his arms and dragged him out of the valley.
“I am a disciple of the Fire Lotus Valley. You can’t kill me!” the tall man said in fear.
Jiang Ming broke his arm and said lightly, “I’ll be asking you some questions!”
Less than an hour later, Jiang Ming looked at the man whose limbs were crushed in front of him.
“I’m merciful. I can’t bear to see someone living such a miserable life!”
Jiang Ming sighed. After saying that, he killed him immediately.
“Is this the storage ring?”
Jiang Ming picked it up, washed it, and stuck a few seals on it to prevent the leakage of spiritual energy from being sensed by others. Then, he put it in his pocket.
According to the tall man, in the Fire Lotus Valley, only disciples at the sixth level of the Qi Refinement Realm were qualified to receive a storage ring. His entire fortune was stored inside.
Jiang Ming was very satisfied. He strode back to the valley and saw two long trails of blood in the snow.
The female immortal cultivator who was the last one to survive was still struggling to crawl away.
Jiang Ming shook his head, went forward, and stomped on her feet.
“I’ll be asking you some questions!”
