Chapter 165 Murderous Intent Boom boom boom... Before daybreak, huge rhythmic knocking sounds echoed in the mountains. More than 3,000 resting troops quickly gathered together, and with a call from Shi Chun, they set off again. Many people grumbled behind others' backs, saying that it was not even daybreak yet and they were rushing on the road at night. Are they in a hurry to be reincarnated? They were just some complaints. The anxiety and tension of yesterday about facing the fight was gone. They had seen through the boss's background. The boss's targets were all weak and pitiful. The boss did not like to take on tough tasks and only liked to bully the weak. Everyone can only think that it is bad luck that they have to run around again. By the time they arrived near their destination, it was already daybreak. After they surrounded the target group, they found that today was different from yesterday. This was a group of nearly two hundred people. This group of people also rested for a night and prepared to set off again at dawn.
According to the information provided by Xiang Lan'er, once this team sets out, the undercover agents will have little autonomy and may find it difficult to escape along the way. So Shi Chun led his troops to set out at night and arrived at daybreak, killing the target troops before they set out. This time, the besieged people did not shout that they did not have any Insect Crystals on them. As Shi Chun gave the order to attack, the troops in the middle and second routes rushed in first. The opponent immediately fought back desperately, and the encirclement troops finally got the chance to take action. Inside the royal capital's parade ground, countless eyes were fixed on the mirrored scene of the fighting between troops and horses. Chi Rang, Lord of Xuanzhou, who was sitting in the best viewing position, frowned. It was he who requested the mirror image targeting Shi Chun. Yesterday, the king was busy and all the domain lords were absent. But later they heard that Shi Chun was leading a large number of troops from Xuanzhou, so he arrived at the competition site at dawn today. As soon as he arrived, he asked to see Shi Chun, wanting to see what was going on. As a result, as soon as the show started, everyone saw the excitement. It was just as he wished, as they really saw the scene of Shi Chun leading thousands of troops to encircle and suppress the rebellion. Wei Mo, the Lord of Shengzhou, who was with him most of the time, also frowned and almost scratched the corners of his mouth, but he couldn't understand what was going on. On the next hill, Miao Dingyi and his family also arrived early because they heard that Shi Chun was leading thousands of troops from Xuanzhou to fight, and they wanted to see what was going on. This time, Miao Dingyi wanted to spend money to order Shichun himself. Now he is no longer afraid of others making associations between his daughter and Shi Chun. He neither agrees nor rejects the relationship between his daughter and Gong Shaoci, but it is already clear. In the end, it wasn't his turn to spend money. Someone who could watch the show for a long time without paying had spoken up, so anyone who wanted to watch it could just follow suit. Master Nan also looked confused. The scene of thousands of people besieging had made Elder Ke and Elder Yin Huixin numb. It wasn't numbness, but their hands and feet were numb. The two didn't know what sins they had committed in their past lives that they always had to see this, and they felt like they couldn't avoid it. Every time night falls in the royal capital, they feel nervous. Even though Elder Yin Huixin was a woman, she had already cursed Shi Chun's ancestors countless times in her heart with dirty words. As people from Shengzhou, they were so deeply involved with people from Xuanzhou that they really didn't know how to explain to Wei Mo. What's more, Elder Ke had been warned by Wei Mo before, so there was no way Wu Kangshan would survive. If that guy could hold on to Xuanzhou's thigh, and there was really nowhere to go in Wukang Mountain, he could help find a temporary place to stay in Xuanzhou, but that guy killed the disciples of Su Yuanzong again.
Of course, they also don't want to leave Shengzhou. If they leave Shengzhou, the Wukangshan sect will lose its basis for survival. To put it in spiritual practice terms, Wukang Mountain has the spiritual vein on which this sect relies for survival. Yesterday, Shi Chun led his troops to destroy people from more than a dozen sects, and they have joined forces to find the two elders. They didn't go to call them to task, but just wanted to ask them what Wukang Mountain really meant. They had no idea what it meant, they could only denounce Shi Chun for his reckless behavior and said it had nothing to do with them. Now their Wukang Mountain has become famous in the cultivation world of Shengshen Continent, and people often point fingers at them when they come in and out. Among the besieged troops, there was a very powerful disciple from one sect, who was like a conspicuous wave in the entire mirror image. After a while, he had killed more than a dozen Xuanzhou people in succession. However, because there were too many besiegers and they were attacked from all directions, they were forced into a panic. There are advantages to having more people. If the difference in cultivation level is not too big, once you are trapped in a large crowd or engaged in close combat, some spells will be difficult to cast. Upon seeing this, Shi Chun drew his sword and rushed forward. With a few slashes, he forced those men into a state where they had no time to take care of themselves. If they showed any weakness, they would be hacked down by the swords and machetes. Once these tough guys died, the battle was over quickly. Chi Rang, the master of Xuanzhou, who was standing on the best stand, waved the person in charge over and asked, "Have you confirmed it?" The person in charge bowed and said, "It can almost be confirmed that they are all from Xuanzhou." When the domain lord first arrived, he instructed him to help identify whether the people led by Shi Chun were all from the Xuanzhou sect. "Hey, this is really weird, which side is this guy on?" Chi Rang tilted his body and leaned on the armrest to mutter. Killing the Su Yuan Sect disciples had already made him furious, and now he was leading the Xuanzhou people to try to seize the Chongji Crystal. If you say that so many people from the sects would betray Xuanzhou, he would never believe it. After the fight was over, there were still many people who had drawn their weapons but did not get a chance to fight. The battlefield was still being cleaned up when someone raised a black cloth bag and shouted, "The Insect Crystal, found it." Shi Chun and Wu Jinliang didn't take it seriously. It was something they had expected. They found it first but didn't say anything. They were just waiting for others to find it. To their surprise, a few moments later, another person holding a black cloth bag shouted, "There are more insect crystals here." Soon, the count results came out, and the one who discovered it loudly reported: "Sixty-eight." On the side that was discovered first, a group of people gathered around and counted them for a long time. Later, there was even a burst of exclamations, and then someone shouted excitedly: "One thousand and eighty-eight." Shi Chun and Wu Jin smiled at each other, and found that Xiang Lan'er was quite capable and knew how to make the amount a little less. "How much? Did I hear correctly?" "Yes, one thousand and eighty-eight." Upon hearing this, Director Mai squeezed over, asked for the black cloth bag himself, and weighed it to check and verify. Afterwards, Chu Jingtang led the disciples of Bilan Sect to personally count and inspect the items. The actual results announced really shocked thousands of people. The disciples of Bilan Sect, led by Chu Jingtang, appeared very calm this time. In this battle, more than twenty people died and more than twenty people were seriously injured. Shi Chun did not express any sympathy for these casualties. That was not his job. He did not let everyone stay for long. After leaving his fellow disciples to take care of the injured, he received another spy report and set off again with his men. They rushed to their destination without stopping, and then they surrounded and ambushed the enemy again, trapping two or three hundred people.
After a fierce battle, dozens of our side were killed or injured, but the harvest was also gratifying, with more than a thousand Insect Crystals. The continuous harvest of over a thousand moved thousands of people. This time, Shi Chun sympathized with everyone's hard work. After leading his men away from the battlefield, he found a place to rest. During this period, Shi Chun took away the two batches of Chongji crystals that Chu Jingtang had just deposited, and he also got a black cloth bag filled with stones from somewhere to make up for the deposit. Taking advantage of the opportunity of patrolling everywhere, Shi Chun met with Xiang Lan'er secretly again and handed over the insect crystals to her. After Xiang Lan'er, who had left, sent the prepared message again, the rest was immediately over. Shi Chun raised his arms and shouted, gathered his troops, and led the crowd to attack again. On the way, Chu Jingtang and his fellow disciples guarded the black cloth bags they carried very strictly, and looked very alert when someone approached. The encirclement battlefield was in a rocky canyon, and the enemy was bullied because they had fewer people. After Shi Chun gave an order, the Xuanzhou soldiers and horses rushed forward with a roar. Who knew that they would encounter the toughest battle since the formation of this half of the Xuanzhou troops. The earth and rocks in the canyon were flying, people were dancing up and down, and the sound of killing was deafening. The momentum of the large numbers and the desperate resistance of the enemy led to a blood-thirsty fight between the two sides. Standing on the canyon, Shi Chun felt the long-lost breath again. A breath rising from the canyon triggered the automatic operation of the Demon Bathing Technique in his body. Every pore was happily absorbing the mysterious thing. He knew what that mysterious thing was, it was murderous intent! This was not his first experience. He had realized it during the group battle in the Exile Land. His body liked to absorb murderous aura, and the absorption of murderous aura could make his body stronger. In the past, he only knew that he could absorb murderous aura, but he didn't know what it felt like. This time, after he felt the murderous aura, he used his right eye to see it. In the rocky canyon, many of the people fighting had dark red mist rising from their bodies. The appearance of the dark red mist seemed to make both sides of the fight even more violent, and the fear of death also made them violent and impulsive after being touched. Shi Chun understood it at a glance. The so-called murderous aura should be a certain form of blood and energy stimulated by the human body. At the scene of the excited blood and energy, dark red mist rose out of the canyon. As he practiced the Demon Bathing Skill, it was sucked towards his body in large quantities. He realized that he was actually absorbing the blood and energy that these people had stimulated in some form. Without needing to see with his eyes, his body could feel that the amount absorbed this time was incomparable to what he had experienced in the Land of Exile before. Because the fighting scenes in the Exile Land have never been so large, at most a few hundred people have reached the maximum, and the gap in cultivation is also very large. With a large gap in cultivation, the gap in blood energy is naturally also very large. Most of the time, it is just a fight between individuals, or a little bit can be absorbed when there is a fight between a small number of people. At this moment, his body was telling him that the absorption was very enjoyable and his body and mind were extremely happy. None of the previous encirclement and suppression campaigns had such a murderous feeling. He himself could not see the changes in himself. The scars on his cheeks, which had healed a lot, were fading and disappearing at a visible speed. After the strong wind from the fight blew away a piece of wrinkled skin, all the scars on his face had disappeared. They were healed in a very short time, leaving only a white mark with a different skin color. Suddenly, he looked up at the sky, and saw a fiery red bird appear in the illusory scene in his right eye. It had a wingspan of more than ten feet and a long tail. It looked like the legendary phoenix. Its red wings were like burning flames and its eyes were flashing red. The strange bird flew back and forth over the canyon, and even danced through the fighting crowd. Every time it passed, it would open its sharp beak to absorb a large amount of murderous aura, but no one at the scene could feel the presence of this strange bird. (End of this chapter)
