Chapter 164: Return
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Corpse Puppet flew towards Ye Qiubai and the others with its monstrous corpse aura!
Every step he took could cross hundreds of feet and would cause ripples in space!
It was like a stone falling into a calm lake.
At this moment, the Grand Elder and the others had already sensed this powerful aura and their expressions could not help but change.
He called out to the ambush team and quickly ran towards the Valley of Heaven’s Wrath!
The Corpse Puppet’s strength was at the half-step Void God Realm.
None of them were a match for the Corpse Puppet!
They could only leave this place quickly.
Everyone in the ambush team unleashed their full strength at an extremely fast speed!
It wasn’t easy for him to escape death and yet there was another Corpse Puppet now?
Even the number one sword cultivator of the Northern Region, Yun Jing, was not a match for that corpse puppet!
At this moment, Ye Qiubai had already recovered most of his spiritual qi.
This was all thanks to Lu Changsheng’s pills.
Turning his head slightly to look, the Corpse Puppet’s speed was extremely fast.
If they were to escape to the Valley of Heaven’s Wrath at this speed…
They would definitely be caught on the way.
The Grand Elder’s heart sank when he sensed the torrential corpse qi that was getting closer.
Obviously, he understood this as well.
The Grand Elder sighed slightly. “When the time comes, I’ll stall him for a few breaths. At that time, all of you will escape from this place and return to the Valley of Heaven’s Wrath.”
With the talent of the Azure Sky Sect’s Grand Elder, he knew that his strength had reached its limit.
Without shocking opportunities, it was impossible to break through again.
And these people, especially Ye Qiubai, still had a bright future ahead of them.
Ye Qiubai might even be able to reach the peak of the continent.
The Northern Region Alliance might have to rely on this lad in the future.
What were some sacrifices compared to this talent?
Everyone’s expressions turned solemn.
Someone said, “Grand Elder, why do you have to do this? Let’s go together.”
The Grand Elder of the Azure Sky Sect smiled in relief. “Don’t think of things so childishly.”
“This is a war. How can there be no sacrifices?”
“However, sacrifice has to have a meaning, so don’t say anymore.”
Everyone was silent.
Ye Qiubai looked at the Grand Elder and nodded slightly.
This time, the Sunset Monarchy planned to integrate the Northern Region.
It forced the various factions of the Northern Region to form an alliance.
The Northern Region Alliance was unprecedentedly united against this calamity.
For example, the Grand Elder of the Azure Sky Sect was willing to sacrifice his life for the sake of war.
One had to know that cultivators cherished their lives.
Being able to make such a decision was already very impressive.
Everyone walked towards the Valley of Heaven’s Wrath.
Ye Qiubai said, “Perhaps it hasn’t reached this stage yet.”
Everyone couldn’t help but look at Ye Qiubai.
Ye Qiubai’s previous performance had already made them believe in him subconsciously!
The Grand Elder of the Azure Sky Sect asked as well, “Do you have a method?”
Ye Qiubai nodded and took out the Dark Demon Sword.
Then, the ice patterns on the Dark Demon Sword began to shine with an ice-blue halo!
Then, the Sword Domain was activated and swept backward!
The Sword Domain was filled with the Ice Sword Intent.
It was as if space had been frozen!
The Corpse Puppet stepped into the Sword Domain.
In an instant, it was entangled by the Ice Sword Intent!
Ice shards kept appearing on the surface of his body!
His speed was also affected to a certain extent!
Seeing this, everyone could not help but be overjoyed!
This was the method Ye Qiubai had just thought of, by integrating the Ice Concept into the Sword Domain.
The Grand Elder of the Azure Sky Sect looked at Ye Qiubai with a complicated expression.
The Intent Realm fusion.
Moreover, it was the two high-level Intent Realms, Sword Intent and Ice Intent.
It was even more difficult!
To be able to do this in an instant, it had to be said that Ye Qiubai’s talent was what the Grand Elder had seen in his life!
There were probably not many young prodigies who could be compared to Ye Qiubai.
At night, the air was humid.
Countless ice shards condensed in the space.
The surface of the corpse puppet’s body was covered in ice shards, affecting his speed to a certain extent!
The corpse puppet shook its body and shattered the ice shards on the surface of its body.
It took a heavy step in the mid-air!
Space trembled as if it had suffered a heavy blow!
At the same time, his body was like a ferocious beast that had escaped. He charged towards Ye Qiubai and the others at a terrifying speed again!
The corpse puppet’s body tore through space.
Sonic booms sounded in this space!
This was a sign that his physical body’s speed had reached an extremely fast speed!
Ye Qiubai naturally discovered that the effect of the Frozen Sword Domain on the Corpse Puppet had disappeared.
This was normal, since he was a half-step Void God Realm existence.
Seeing this, Ye Qiubai suddenly turned around and slashed out with the Dark Demon Sword in his hand!
An endless will transformed into a sword slash that slashed towards the corpse puppet!
The Primordial Sword Scripture and the Peaceful Mountains And Rivers!
After slashing out, he turned around again and led everyone towards the Valley of Heaven’s Wrath!
The slash was close to the Corpse Puppet.
The Corpse Puppet clenched its fist and threw it out!
A torrential corpse aura coiled around his fist, as though thousands of ghosts were roaring!
Rumble!
The slash was shattered!
However, the endless will corroded into the Corpse Puppet’s fist like maggots!
However, the Corpse Puppet was unmoved. Its body shook and it expelled the Sword Intent from its body.
And this slash successfully stalled the Corpse Puppet for nine breaths.
In these nine breaths of time, Ye Qiubai and the others had already left the Corpse Puppet’s line of sight!
The corpse puppet took a step forward, prepared to give chase again!
However, after charging for a distance, it stopped and returned to the back.
It seemed to have received some kind of order.
At this moment, everyone realized that the Corpse Puppet did not continue to chase after them.
He could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
However, before he could relax, he arrived at the receiving place at full speed.
Qin Tiannan and the others were relieved to see Ye Qiubai.
“Prepare to receive them. Take out the medicinal pills and treat their injuries.”
At the back, the support team began to prepare.
Qin Tiannan, Jian Chaomian, and the others went forward.
“Qiubai, how was it?”
Ye Qiubai’s face turned slightly pale after overexerting himself the Eighth Sword of the Nine Heavenly Demon Sword and the Primordial Sword Scripture, as well as fusing the Frozen Sword Domain.
This caused Ye Qiubai to consume a lot of energy.
If it weren’t for Lu Changsheng’s pills, he wouldn’t have been able to hold on for so long.
Ye Qiubai nodded and said, “It’s alright. I brought some of them back with me.”
Qin Tiannan looked behind Ye Qiubai.
There were six people left, including the Grand Elder of the Azure Sky Sect.
The original ambush team had a total of 10 people, this also meant that four people had died in the end.
It hurt Qin Tiannan, but his eyes were filled with satisfaction.
It was already beyond their expectations to be able to save the six of them under such circumstances after all.
The Grand Elder of the Azure Sky Sect consumed the medicinal pill and his spiritual qi recovered. Only then did he step forward and say with a smile, “Dean Qin, you have a good student.”
“With this kid around, I’m afraid no one can stop the rise of the Hidden Dao Academy.”
This incident had subdued the Grand Elder and the others!
Qin Tiannan said proudly, “Alright, everyone, let’s talk when we get back.”
Everyone left.
At the same time, at the camp behind the Sunset Monarchy…
