Bai Yi’s deduction was correct. The two Golden Core stage experts’ battle caused a large commotion. The Spirit Sword Sect was so close, and it was impossible that they did not notice it.
Especially when the Spirit Sword Sect’s Immortal cultivators discovered that one of the two Golden Core stage experts in the battle was a demonic beast…
Immediately, a Nascent Soul stage expert made a move!
The existence of demonic beasts was quite special in the Immortal cultivation world. It was very difficult for them to cultivate because there was no concrete cultivation method.
If demonic beasts wanted to become stronger, they could only rely on some barbaric methods.
For example, they could use their instincts to absorb the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, or they could ignore the backlash and eat some dangerous spirit herbs, or they could simply eat human Immortal cultivators!
The spiritual power in the bodies of human Immortal cultivators, as well as their flesh and blood, was definitely a great tonic for demonic beasts.
They watched helplessly as a Golden Core great demon was so close to their own sect…
Even if it was for the safety of their disciples, the Spirit Sword Sect had to make a move.
The Spirit Sword Sect’s Nascent Soul mighty figure who intervened in the battle was actually a Supreme Elder of the Spirit Sword Sect.
There were three Supreme Elders in the Spirit Sword Sect that had been passed down for thousands of years.
Each of them was in the Nascent Soul stage.
This Supreme Elder was not the same person as Elder Yu whom the Saintess had offended.
She looked like an old woman. Her back was hunched, and she held a wooden crutch in her hand.
Her face was kind.
“Sigh…”
She looked at the black-clothed old man whose aura was gradually declining and could not help but sigh lightly. She said with an apologetic tone, “I’m late. Have a safe journey, fellow Daoist.”
The black-clothed old man’s face was already extremely pale. He forced out a trace of a smile. He wanted to say something, but no matter what, he could not make any sound.
His body was already covered in extremely hideous wounds.
He had recklessly borrowed the country’s fate to increase his battle strength, but in reality, he had only lasted for the time it takes an incense stick to burn.
The black-clothed old man knew very well that he could not hold on any longer.
He knew that the time it takes an incense stick to burn was not enough for Her Highness the Princess to escape from danger.
Fortunately… His desperate efforts to stall for time were not in vain.
The Spirit Sword Sect’s Nascent Soul stage expert had arrived.
The flame in his heart had already completely extinguished by the time she reached here.
He closed his eyes. There was no sign of life.
The Great Yan Dynasty’s fate that blessed his body gently lifted him up, allowing his body to slowly fall to the ground. Immediately, the Great Yan Dynasty’s fate disappeared without a trace.
The body of the black-clothed old man seemed to be unable to withstand the backlash. The corpse actually turned into ashes at a very fast speed, slowly drifting away.
The ashes landed on the surrounding grass and trees.
Weeds rose up from the ground rapidly, growing to the size of a large tree.
The trees expanded and expanded at a faster speed, so that the trunks of different trees were close to each other.
In the end, they were all squeezed together. From a distance, they looked like a towering tree.
Only from a close distance, one could see that this large tree was made of smaller trees.
This was probably a tombstone of the black-clothed old man.
Seeing this, the old woman sighed again.
Then, she shifted her gaze to the demonic beast that was trembling in front of her.
She had locked her eyes on this Golden Core demon. The terrifying aura of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator made the demonic beast so scared that it could not move. Its mind trembled!
“Evil creature!”
The two words were like thunder on the ground. The sky was filled with dazzling lights that bloomed in the night sky. A powerful aura that made people’s hearts palpitate burst out.
The Golden Core demonic beast suddenly woke up. Its pair of scarlet vertical eyes flashed with fear.
It flapped its wings in a hurry to escape. It knew that it was no match for it.
However…
In the next moment, it suddenly realized that it could no longer fly.
Then…
It saw two pairs of fleshy wings fall straight down. Scarlet blood splattered on its body.
‘Such familiar wings… Oh… It’s mine.’
Only three sentences flashed through the Golden Core demon’s mind. After that, it could no longer think.
A ferocious and huge head had already slipped down from its neck.
When a Golden Core met a Nascent Soul, there was simply no strength to resist.
The analogy of an egg hitting a hammer might not be very appropriate.
A rock hitting a hammer!
…
At the same time, the group of people who had already fled a distance realized that there was a faint fighting movement behind them. After there was completely no sound, everyone roughly understood what the outcome was.
They were very clear that the black-clothed old man could not hold on for too long. It was already very desperate for him to be able to hold on until now.
The problem was the person who had delayed the Golden Core great demon had already fallen. What should they do?
Who could delay that tenth level Golden Core demonic beast?
They were indeed quite far away, but for that Golden Core great demon, this distance was nothing, right?
“Don’t worry…”
At this time, the low and hoarse voice of the Human Puppet rang out, “The Nascent Soul of the Spirit Sword Sect has already made a move, and that Golden Core demonic beast is dead. However, that black-clothed fellow Daoist’s lifespan has also dried up.”
The Human Puppet was the ‘person’ with the highest cultivation present, and its words had the highest authority.
Hearing these words, the people who were fleeing on their flying swords immediately widened their eyes.
“The Nascent Soul of the Spirit Sword Sect made a move?” the official from the state capital said excitedly.
“Elder Hei, is he dead…” the Princess murmured.
The two voices sounded almost at the same time. Different people had different thoughts at the moment.
No matter what…
The Nascent Soul of the Spirit Sword Sect made a move, which meant that they were now out of danger and no longer needed to run for their lives.
“My Lord.” The Princess of the Great Yan Dynasty pleaded, “I want to go back and take away Elder Hei’s corpse.”
“There’s no need.” The Human Puppet shook his head. Under the puzzled gaze of the other party, he explained, “Forcefully borrowing the fate of the nation to strengthen himself, it’s unknown whether his corpse is still there.”
Bai Yi learned about this when he watched Chen Qianxue simulate Immortal cultivation. This was said by the Immortal cultivator of the Great Wei Dynasty who taught Chen Qianxue in the simulator.
Some of the Immortal cultivation knowledge in the Immortal Cultivation Simulator was also applicable in reality.
Everyone was silent.
Indeed.
Even if it was a Golden Core stage Immortal cultivator, after borrowing the nation’s fate through a secret method, the backlash they suffered would be so severe that even their corpse might disappear. Even a pool of blood might not even be left behind.
This level of backlash would completely wipe out a person from this world.
Unless it was absolutely necessary, no Immortal cultivator in the Imperial Court would use such a secret technique.
The Princess did not say anything else.
Their emotions were all very complicated, and the Human Puppet did not continue to say any nonsense.
As the atmosphere fell into a strange silence, only the whistling of air currents could be heard, as well as the sound of flying swords tearing through the sky.
In the sky, six streaks of light flashed and then disappeared, rushing toward Qinghe County.
If someone looked up at the sky…
They might think it was a shooting star.
…
