Chapter 147: One Sword Kills Three People (Third Update)
There are three local-level low-grade secret books, five human-level top-grade secret books. If exchanged for spiritual stones in the sect, it would be 9,250 pieces of lower-grade spiritual stones, almost equivalent to all of Ye Chen's accumulated spiritual stones, undoubtedly a huge fortune.
He put away the secret book and swept his gaze around the room.
Huh?
On the other side of the wall, there was a foot-long yellow gourd tied with a red thread.
With a wave of his hand, the yellow gourd fell into Ye Chen's hands. He shook it gently, and the sound of small objects rolling and rubbing against each other came from inside the gourd.
"Dan medicine?"
The leaves didn't have time to think, and they opened the gourd stopper.
Suddenly, a refreshing fragrance wafted up to his nostrils.
She turned one over in her hand, Ye Xuan fixed her eyes to take a look, the dan medicine was about the size of a small finger, crystal clear with a yellow tint, on its surface there were faint fine hairs scattered, the fragrance was even more intense, just now she had only taken a sniff of the fragrance, the true energy inside her body already had an even further flavor.
Although he couldn't recognize the name and function of the dan medicine, Ye Chen knew it was definitely not an ordinary object.
Having received the secret recipe and elixir, there was nothing else in the secret room. Yedu slightly exhaled a breath and stepped out.
The tomb is incredibly large and has a complex network of passageways that stretch in all directions, with countless forks in the road, making it seem like a labyrinth.
At first, there was still some curiosity, but later on, Ye Chen had become fed up. Whoever it was who wandered aimlessly in the winding passages would get annoyed, and the treasures of this tomb were not as numerous as imagined. It was already a rare find for Ye Chen to discover one secret room.
Walking along a fork in the road, a sword light suddenly shot out from beside him.
"Looking for death!"
Ye Chen didn't even look back, and with a single sword stroke, he counterattacked.
Hmph!
A disciple of the sect covered his neck and fell to the ground, with his eyes wide open.
A low-grade local secret book was found on the opponent's body, Ye Chen sighed, this person should also be trapped in the tomb. It's hard to get out, unfortunately, it's too late now. He not only didn't look for a way out but instead engaged in killing and robbing, he deserved to die.
The other side of the grave.
Rumble!
A wall collapsed, Lin Yue growled: "Damn it, where is the exit?"
His luck was not as good as Ye Chen's, and he only obtained a local low-grade secret book and three or four human-grade top-secret books from the trapped disciples of the sect. He gained nothing else, but that was all. When he wanted to leave, he found that he couldn't find his way back. He was completely trapped in the tomb.
"I just don't believe how many walls are standing in front of me."
He went on a rampage. Lin Yue didn't care about anything and walked in a straight line, destroying as many walls as he came across.
Compared with Ye Chen and Lin Yue, Yin Wuqing seems much more at ease.
He pulled out a delicate and small wooden mouse from his bosom. A low-grade Ling stone was inlaid on its abdomen.
Squeak!
The wooden mouse turned its head and ran in another direction.
Right behind the wooden mouse, Yin Wuqing quickly arrived at the intersection where he came from. There was also a wooden mouse there, and the two wooden mice gathered together.
"The cleverness of the mouse is indeed beyond human." He put away the two wooden mice, and Yin Wuqing stepped into the huge whirlpool, his body disappearing from sight.
Two hours have passed.
Hard work pays off for those who are diligent, and Ye Chen finally found an exit, although it wasn't the entrance he came in from. But at this point, he didn't care about that anymore, and stepped right in with one foot.
Hoo hoo hoo hoo...
A gentle breeze rustled past her ear, and Ye Chen opened her eyes to find herself surrounded by an endless expanse of nothingness, with wispy clouds gathering in the distance.
Lowering one's head for a glance, the earth in view enlarges, and the body rapidly falls downwards.
He was originally in the air, and this exit really left people speechless.
The crane's shadow unfolded, and Ye Chen's body suddenly became much lighter. With a flick of his arms, he slid towards the distant high ground.
In front of the highland is a vast basin.
In the center of the basin, a fierce battle is taking place. Three sect disciples are ganging up on and killing another sect disciple, with bloodstains dotting the grass.
"Originally empty space, everything has been given to you, don't bully people too much." The disciples of the sect surrounded by blue clothes were Luo Hanshan.
The leader of the sect's disciples sneered with a big laugh, "I want the things, and I also want to kill the people. What can you do about it? If anyone is to blame, it's just that you're too weak."
"Hmph, you're just relying on your numerical superiority. If you have the guts, let's have a one-on-one fight. If I lose, I deserve to die, and if you lose, I won't kill you either. What do you say?" Luo Hanshan's eyes were gloomy as he knew that the situation was stronger than any individual. If he insisted on saving face, there would only be a dead end. He could only hope that his opponent would agree to come down and have a fair fight with him, so that he could find an opportunity to escape later. As for killing his opponent, he hadn't thought of it - this man was the younger brother of 'Killer Eagle' Yuan Heng, and Yuan Heng had always been protective of his family. Even if Luo Hanshan killed one of his dogs or chickens, Yuan Heng would still wipe out his entire household, which would be extremely foolish."
Yu Hengkong sneered: "You have an advantage and don't use it. Do you think I'm a fool? Don't waste words, just kill me."
Three people each showed off their exceptional skills and charged towards Luo Hanshan.
"The Purple Energy Arrives from the East, the Great Stele Presses Down!"
Facing three sect disciples who were no weaker than himself, Luo Hanshan's true energy circulated to its limit, and from the void, he drew out a bridge-like purple gas, increasing his own infinite combat power. He then punched out a giant purple stone stele to protect himself.
Boom boom boom boom boom...
The three men's attack was fierce and unmatched, shaking the purple stone monument until it trembled with fear, producing countless cracks.
"Give me change!"
As the core disciple of the Seventh Rank Sect Tianying Fortress, Yuan Kong's strength was far inferior to his brother's, but under the Yuanyuan Realm, he was an extremely powerful existence. He held a pair of purple gold hammers in both hands and heavily struck them against the True Qi Stele.
Splendid!
The true energy stone monument was shattered and scattered, and Luo Hanshan's mouth cornered out fresh blood.
"Die!"
Yuán Héng Kōng let out a loud laugh and swung his hammer at Luo Hanshan's forehead.
"Get out!"
Luohan Mountain's eyes widened, and he threw a punch at the Zi Jin Chui.
Clang!
Mars splashed everywhere, a strong and violent shockwave radiated in all directions, sweeping away the lawn to reveal a deep layer.
At this moment, another sect disciple took advantage of the situation and came to Luo Hanshan's back, tearing apart his protective true energy with one palm and imprinting it on his back.
Pfft!
A mouthful of blood spurted out, and Luo Hanshan's face turned pale, suffering from a severe internal injury.
"Let's see how you block this punch."
Yuan Heng's face turned sinister, he took a step forward and his body soared high into the air. The purple-golden hammer emitted an intense golden light as it smashed towards Luo Hanshan once again.
Hiss!
At the critical moment, a sword energy shot from afar and struck the Purple Gold Mace hovering in mid-air.
The purple golden hammer flew out of his hand, and Yuan Hengkong was shocked. As soon as his foot landed on the ground, he retreated backwards and joined forces with the other two men.
Luo Hanshan turned his head and exclaimed in surprise: "Ye Shidi."
One person floated gently down beside Luo Hanshan, and it was Ye Chen. He took a look at the heavily injured Luo Hanshan and frowned, saying: "Luo Shixiong, you're injured."
"Compared to life, a little injury is nothing." Luo Hanshan felt relieved when he saw Ye Chen appear. With the two of them joining forces, their chances of survival increased greatly. At least they wouldn't be slaughtered or executed at will. Moreover, Ye Chen's strength was unfathomable to him, and he could sense that the sharp aura emanating from his body was even more intense than before, far surpassing what it had been in the past. He estimated that Ye Chen had already reached the level of "North Snow Fast Knife" Lin Qi.
He glanced at Ye Chen with a cold smile, seeing that he was only in the later stage of the Cong Zhen realm. "Another one who's come to die," he sneered. "Earlier, you cut down my Purple Gold Mallet. Now I'll smash your skull and tear you into five pieces to scatter across this land."
"Originally, Brother Shi had a low-grade treasure on him, kill him and take it."
"That's right, look at the big pocket on his waist, it's bulging, there must be many more treasures."
Yuan Hongkong picked up the purple gold hammer from the ground, "What's the hurry? This person is already a dead man in my eyes. As for the treasure, I can give you some."
"Thank you, Senior Brother Yuan."
Ye Dun sneered, "If you can withstand one of my sword strikes, I'll spare your lives."
"Preposterous!"
"How dare you!"
"Big words will cost you your life!"
The third person revealed his killing intent, his true energy circulating to its limits, and he charged towards Ye Chen.
"Cut!"
He took a step forward with his left foot and Ye Chen struck down with one sword.
Hmph!
A massive sword aura flashed past the waists of the three people, cutting out a sword mark tens of meters long and several meters deep on the grassland behind them, with grass and mud flying into the air.
Next moment!
Three people's bodies split in two and scattered all over the ground.
"What? One sword, three people killed in an instant." Luo Hanshan was so excited that he started coughing, although he knew Ye Chen was very powerful, but didn't think it would be to this extent. One sword, killing three sect disciples who were on the same level as him in an instant, this was no longer something Lin Qi could compare to. It's estimated that even three Lin Qis wouldn't be this fierce! But Ye Chen hadn't reached the Bao Yuan realm, how could he have such combat power?
No, the sword just now absorbed my heart and soul, as if only this sword was left in the world. Could it be that Ye Chen has already grasped the intent of the sword, the intent of the sword that Sword Guest has been dreaming of?
"Ye Shidi, is that sword intent?" asked Luo Hanshan hastily.
Ye Chen nodded slightly.
"It's really the sword intent, haha, no wonder it can kill three people with one sword. For a swordsman who possesses sword intent, transcending levels is as simple as eating and drinking, it's not something ordinary people can imagine." Luo Hanshan was very pleased in his heart, he was the son of the sect master of Liuyun Sect, everything was based on the development of the sect, now the sect had produced a peerless genius, who would definitely make Liuyun Sect's power even stronger in the future.
"But you killed the younger brother of Yuan Heng, this matter is not simple!"
After the joy, Luo Hanshan began to worry. The strength of 'Killer Eagle' Yuan Heng was not something that Yuan Kong could compare with. If he knew that Ye Chen had killed his brother, he would definitely pursue them relentlessly, and they wouldn't be able to escape anywhere. And although Ye Chen had grasped the sword intent and could instantly kill disciples below the Bao Yuan realm, his strength was exceptionally powerful, but he was probably not a match for Yuan Heng either.
Ye Chendi said: "Anyway, there's no one here, so even if we kill him, it won't matter."
"That's right, let's get out of here quickly!"
Luohan Mountain did not want to stay in this place, fearing that others would see them and the corpse of Yuan Hengkong together.
Not long after the two left, a figure emerged from behind a large tree on a distant high ground. He chuckled to himself, "Running into Yuan Heng is actually a good thing, I can use this as a get-out-of-jail-free card and let him spare my life."
