Chapter 127: Strange Blood Shadow
Shilin mountain range, named for its numerous scattered rocks, stretches tens of miles without interruption.
Somewhere in Shilin!
A monk who no longer looked human lay on the ground, his body shriveled up. Upon closer inspection, it became apparent that this person's vital energy had been sucked away by some kind of evil entity!
The skin is wrinkled, looking older than a hundred-year-old in the mortal world!
Next to Luo Yunzong's disciple, another black-robed monk was also lying on the ground, similarly drained of all his vital energy and completely lifeless!
And these two people seem to have been torn apart by beasts, with dry and cracked wounds!
Ordinary masters might see these as mere tricks, but Wang Chen observed them carefully and a chill ran down his spine!
"These two should have been elite disciples, but who knows they died here too. What's even more frightening is the look in their eyes before they died, not fear, not dread, but a faint sense of relief!"
Ordinary masters would hardly notice the strange emotions of two masters before they died, but Wang Chen's sword intent was indeed different!
But it was precisely because of this that Wang Chen couldn't help but feel a chill, who could have such terrifying abilities, to the point where they felt death was a kind of relief!
Suddenly, a blood shadow flashed through Wang Chen's mind.
"I'll give you a choice: either surrender to me... or we'll meet again soon!"
This Blood Shadow King Chen had a strange sense of familiarity, as if he had seen him somewhere before, but King Chen really couldn't think of what kind of demonic blood cultivator he knew!
He faintly shook his head, and two sparks of fire appeared in Wang Chen's hands. The two corpses then turned into ashes and flew away. Of course, the items on their bodies were also absorbed by Wang Chen into the Boundary Pearl, becoming its fertilizer!
Just like a sapling, Jingzhu needs to keep growing and become an existence that rivals the world!
Then, Wang Chen's figure disappeared again, leaving behind only a faint sword mark on the ground!
"Roar!"
Like a beast's roar, one monk was actually engaging in the most primitive fight with another monk!
One grab extended, a monk's hands grasped towards another monk, and tore off a piece of flesh from the opponent's chest!
Blood splattered everywhere!
Too horrible to behold!
The monk opposite him did the same, pouncing like a beast and tearing off a piece of flesh from his own body while also clawing off a piece of flesh from his opponent's arm!
The bloody and cruel scene did not make the two feel afraid, but instead, a bloodthirsty glow was emitted from their eyes!
The action is even more ferocious, reckless and desperate to the point of being suicidal, but without using any magic spells or artifacts, instead tearing apart like a wild beast!
Boom!
Suddenly, a monk who had transformed into a wild beast slipped underfoot and was thrown out one meter away by another monk!
Rumble!
The cultivator who was thrown out hit a dilapidated stone slab that had been abandoned for a long time, and the sound instantly spread far away!
The battle between the cultivator and his enemy is generally not something others want to get involved in, even if they are friends. Any benefits gained will have to be shared out, and if it's an enemy, then it goes without saying that one of them might end up dead, or worse still, both parties might end up losing everything and dying a tragic death, with someone else swooping in to reap the rewards!
After the sound came out, the eyes of the two monks suddenly showed a rare clarity, and in this clarity, a color of relief flashed, which did not become gloomy due to the arrival of others, but only for an instant. A blood light occupied the consciousness of the two people, and their eyes even flashed with a bloodthirsty glow!
"There's movement over there!"
Wang Chen hadn't even had time to examine the corpse of a monk-like figure when he heard footsteps behind him. Without hesitation, his footwork flashed with sword shadows and his body disappeared in an instant!
In a moment!
Wang Chen's face was rarely cold and stern as he stood in front of two cultivators who were fighting like beasts.
The two men had lost consciousness, although they were mortally wounded and about to die, they still struggled on the ground, trying to kill each other!
"Let's cultivate immortality in our next life!"
Wang Chen let out a low sigh, his fingers flashed with sword light, and the two men's heads were chopped off, their bodies falling to the ground motionless!
However, on their bodies, blood suddenly boiled up and then turned into a stream of red air, flying far away!
This happened very quickly. After the blood-colored gas flew away, the skin of both people also changed, just like what Wang Chen saw at the beginning!
"Where is your old nest?"
Wang Chen, who had disappeared, did not notice that in the instant when the blood color disappeared from the eyes of the two skulls, there was a hint of a smile, a smile of relief, which was soon covered up by the corpse energy emanating from all over his body.
The speed of the blood-colored airflow wasn't very fast, and Wang Chen didn't need to use his full strength to catch up!
The further he walked forward, the heavier the bloody smell in front of him became, and Wang Chen's face grew colder!
"How much blood has been shed in this war? I'm afraid that apart from the disciples of the Array Sect, nearly half of them have met with disaster!"
Even Wang Chen had an impulse to break the increasingly large blood-colored gas flow, no, it should be said that the blood gas river, the initial gas flow has slowly grown larger and larger with the continuous addition of blood-colored gas, becoming the size of a small stream!
Breaking through the blood-colored river, the caster will sense it and at that time, they won't be able to sneak up on them!
The bloody aura slowly spread out, attracting the attention of more and more disciples. More and more disciples came, but without Wang Chen's sword intent to protect their bodies, they were unable to expel the eerie blood energy that delighted in killing from their bodies. As a result, many disciples once again became the same eerie blood people as before, like wild beasts, looking for someone to kill!
Unless one has an unyielding will or possesses special spells, incantations, or artifacts to protect themselves, they would unknowingly fall prey to the insidious invasion of the eerie blood aura.
As the bloody aura grew stronger and stronger, Wang Chen could no longer hold back. His entire body was filled with sword energy, emitting a faint white glow!
This white light has a unique and transcendent aura, wherever the white light goes, the blood energy disappears! However, the white light on Wang Chen's body is still too little, even at full force, it only extends a few meters away.
"All disciples of Luo Yunzong retreat immediately! There is a suspected Golden Dan stage demonic cultivator here!"
Wang Chen's body was strengthened by the power of blood, and his voice was not like that of ordinary people. With one shout, his voice echoed several miles away, and all the cultivators in the Stone Forest heard it. Except for those who were confused by the strange blood energy, the other disciples' faces changed greatly when they heard the words, and then left the entire forest!
Even some demon cultivators felt it was inappropriate and began to rapidly retreat!
"With no blood source, this demon cultivator won't be too terrifying. Moreover, it has secretly killed so many cultivators and must have collected a lot of spiritual materials and treasures. If we can get them, I estimate that the spiritual materials for advancing to the foundation stage will be almost complete!"
"Transcending everything doesn't mean being a bloodthirsty killer. If you're not willing to be a ruthless demon king who seizes spiritual materials without batting an eye, then killing these demon kings is the same!"
Wang Chen thought to himself, his fighting spirit surging even more, and the small white sword in his dantian even slightly trembled!
The greatest feature of Shen Lian's method is that it allows the sword to communicate with the divine, making it relatively easy to form a sword spirit. Only when the sword spirit is formed can one be considered a true sword cultivator!
The destined flying sword and the destined sword spirit match with one's own sword intent, only then can one have the strength to challenge higher levels! This shows just how powerful the destined flying sword and sword spirit are!
However, Wang Chen's flying sword was only a thread of spiritual consciousness obtained through the Divine Refining Method, and could not be considered a true sword spirit. But precisely because of this, it was easier to cultivate the sword spirit!
Underfoot sword shadow flickers, Wang Chen can even feel the breath of a cultivator not far away, bloodthirsty, evil, lawless!
Even around this master, there were many masters with weak breaths, as if they were on their last gasp!
What made Wang Chen even more annoyed was that there was a very familiar aura inside!
