Chapter 98
Rebellion
Seeing that the black dragon was attacked, Ye Ranyi thrust out his soul sword with all his strength.
This sword, which gathered 90% of the fairy's soul power, was extremely sharp. The dragon's head instinctively showed a painful expression, and the black color suddenly became 30% lighter.
Flames suddenly shot into the sky in front of Shangguan Ming, and a soul spear shining with dazzling golden light floated above his head, then shot out and pierced into the dragon's head.
The golden flames burned violently in the black air, and the solid flames were like the nemesis of the divine soul, burning all the surrounding black dragon soul energy into nothingness.
The flame began to expand and gradually turned into a golden hood, covering the dragon's head, making it impossible for it to break free.
The fatal burning continued, the dragon's head was in agony, its expression became extremely ferocious, and it began to shake and struggle desperately.
But it was of no avail. As Shangguan Ming continued to activate his spiritual thoughts, the dragon's head was engulfed in golden light, and the black became lighter and lighter, gradually turning into gray and gray-white until it was completely annihilated.
Jin Ziming summoned Xiao Fei and stopped the "escape" he was about to launch in time, but the two people beside him who were casting spells with all their strength did not notice anything strange.
Shangguan Ming and Ye Ranyi both fell to the ground due to excessive consumption of soul power, but Fairy Ye was particularly overdrawn.
Both of them came from super powerful sects, so they naturally had no shortage of high-level elixirs to restore their souls. After taking them quickly, they used their kung fu to dissolve the medicinal properties.
Jin Ziming called Wang Mengxue, who was extremely nervous, to come over and collect the dragon's blood with him.
After a few breaths, Shangguan Ming stood up first. Jin Ziming hurriedly stopped collecting blood and went over to help Ye Ranyizi up.
"It's not advisable to stay here for a long time. We need to fly into the dense forest immediately and lurk."
Shangguan Ming remembered that he had abandoned his junior sister and escaped from the battle, and he couldn't help but feel a little guilty. When he gave orders, he could no longer cut through the metal as before.
Ye Ranyi also did not forget the other party's cowardice. She frowned slightly, with a look of disgust on her face, but she was extremely self-restrained and did not say anything else.
"Then I'll take this dragon first." Jin Ziming said.
"It's better for me to collect it, and we'll discuss how to distribute it when we get back."
Shangguan Ming finally regained his decisiveness, took out a storage ring, and put the black dragon away without any explanation.
"Wait a minute, he just said that there is a jade plaque that can shield the aura. Look for it. We may need it later." Jin Ziming quickly reminded.
Shangguan Ming nodded, looked into it with his soul, and found that the black dragon also had a human storage ring, and quickly found a blue jade plaque inside.
The four of them did not dare to stay here, so they spread out their body skills and flew down the mountain. In an instant, they fell into the dense forest and disappeared.
Shangguanming activated the jade tablet, and an almost colorless soft light mask appeared, covering a space of three feet in radius.
When the four of them were inside, they suddenly felt that the sensing distance to the outside world had been greatly shortened.
Shangguanming got out of the mask and found that although he could see the other three people, his auras could not be detected. He was immediately overjoyed and hurriedly entered again.
Under the protection of the light mask, the four people fled quickly and soon left the medicine garden.
After running around for a long time, I found a hidden cave. After entering, I sealed the entrance with rocks.
As we went deeper, we found that the space inside the cave was actually very large.
After a series of life-and-death fights and excessive expenditure of souls, everyone was a little sleepy, so they took out the elixirs, drank them, and began to meditate and regulate their breathing.
The soft light of the jade plaque always covered the four people, preventing them from being discovered by the monster.
More than an hour later, Wang Mengxue and Jin Ziming stopped practicing one after another.
Shangguan Ming was the third one, but he didn't show it. He still kept his appearance of practicing martial arts, but he began to make calculations in his heart:
"In a critical moment, I abandoned my fellow sect members. If word got out, not only would I be ridiculed, but I would also be severely punished by the sect. In that case, my future would be over.
With her cold and calm temperament, Junior Sister would probably not take the initiative to expose it.
The trouble is that Zhu Lei and Wang Mengxue have to prevent them from leaking the news. It is best to find a way to get rid of them quietly.
That boy seems to be interested in Junior Sister Ye. He really wants to eat swan meat. You can use your brain in this regard to see if you can make use of it.
This man's combat prowess is impressive, but he's probably no match for me yet. As long as I guard against his terrifying Soul Imprisonment, I should be able to defeat him..."
Half an hour later, Shangguan Ming and Ye Ranyi completed their "breath adjustment" one after another, and Jin Ziming asked:
"Sister, how are you?"
"My soul has recovered by more than 40%, which is fine."
"Then let's quickly discuss the escape route." Jin Ziming suggested.
"Wait a minute, who said we have to escape immediately? Have you ever thought about what the monsters are busy with now?"
Seeing the other three people being inexplicably surprised, Shangguan was very pleased and continued:
"They must be chasing us with all their strength. If we flee now, we may face the danger of being intercepted in front and being pursued behind.
I think we should think in the opposite direction. Since they are out to chase us, why don’t we take the opportunity to sneak back to the medicine garden?
Junior sister and I both still lack the elixir necessary for making alchemy, so we can just go back and look for it, what do you think?"
Jin Ziming felt that this idea was indeed ingenious and seemed reasonable, but he vaguely felt that something was wrong.
Ye Ranyi said after pondering:
"We don't have enough medicinal materials, so we can look for them slowly. Besides, even if we can't refine the elixir, it's just that our practice is slower. It's better for us to get out of danger as soon as possible."
Jin Ziming and Wang Mengxue heard this and claimed yes.
Shangguan Ming was anxious and said hurriedly:
"You and I have reached a critical moment in our practice. Without the assistance of key elixirs, we may not be able to break through the obstacles."
"Senior Brother Shangguan, even if we return to the Medicine Valley, we may not be able to find the herbs we need. I still think we should leave the Monster Forest as soon as possible."
Ye Ranyi said firmly.
Shangguan Ming was heartbroken, walked forward quickly, hugged Ye Ranyi's shoulders, and at the same time sealed her big hole with his inner energy, so that she could not struggle, but said softly:
"Junior sister, we have deep feelings for each other, so just listen to my senior brother."
Ye Ranyi was unprepared and fell into his trap. Feeling ashamed and angry, he hurriedly reprimanded:
"Shangguan Ming, what are you doing?"
Shangguan Ming had already planned the subsequent changes and responses. Considering that Wang Mengxue still needed to find the medicinal herbs, he pointed out the herbs and made him faint immediately.
Jin Ziming jumped back, took out Leng Yue, and said coldly:
"What's the matter, Shangguan Ming, are you afraid that we will go out and expose your ugly behavior of abandoning your fellow disciples and running away from the battlefield, and want to kill you and silence you?"
"Nonsense, as long as you are willing, we can still cooperate sincerely and enter the medicine garden again."
"Okay, then let go of Senior Sister Ye first."
Shangguan Ming not only did not let go of Ye Ranyi's right hand, but hugged her even tighter. He even stretched out his left hand, gently touched her delicate cheek, and said flirtatiously:
"My junior sister, of course you listen to me. There is no need for you, an outsider, to interfere here, right? My dear junior sister."
Then he turned his head and stared at Jin Ziming fiercely, mockingly:
"I've already discovered that you covet my junior sister. Hehe, you don't even look in the mirror."
Seeing the tears of grievance in Ye Ranyi's eyes, Jin Ziming was finally angered by success.
In his heart, the fairy was a goddess-like existence. How could he allow this despicable and dirty guy to knead her at will?
"Don't talk so much nonsense, don't you just want to silence me? It's such a big deal, it goes in such a big circle.
Just go ahead and kill me and Junior Sister Wang, I think you will feel relieved."
"If you think so, I don't bother to argue. Since you have evil intentions towards my junior sister, I can't let you be a troublesome person today."
Shangguanming let go of Ye Ranyi, summoned his sword, and prepared to fight.
"The space in the cave is limited. You should first set up a protective formation to protect Senior Sister Ye and Junior Sister Wang. I will not attack them sneakily." Jin Ziming suggested.
Shangguan Ming was not willing to harm the two girls for the time being, so he agreed and took out the formation disk, activated it and protected them inside it.
Ye Ranyi was anxious in his heart. Although Jin Ziming's strength was far beyond his realm, he would probably not be a match against the powerful mid-stage Nascent Soul masters from the super sect.
But there was nothing she could do now. Even if she persuaded Jin Ziming to leave, based on her understanding of this guy, he would never do that.
Besides, it was impossible for Shangguan Ming to agree, which would only mess up Jin Ziming's mind.
Fairy Ye's mood returned to calm:
"If you are harmed by Shangguan Ming, I will not hesitate to die together with my enemy, and your infatuation will not be in vain."
Thinking about going to die with this man whom I didn't know very well, I didn't feel much fear or regret.
Outside the formation, the two old enemies looked at each other silently. Jin Ziming took the lead and launched the improved "Feng Chi Dao".
As the sword style unfolds, the Golden Light Divine Curse, the Surprise Curse, the Wrapping Up Curse, and the Falling Flag Curse come into play in turn.
For a moment, there was a sudden burst of flames, sometimes the ghosts of the dead were flying, and sometimes the gloomy flags were waving, which really put Shangguan Ming into a panic.
Although his mind was wavering, he was close to the late Nascent Soul stage after all. He gradually stabilized his position and began to turn his defense into an offense, suppressing the opponent into a defensive posture.
Jin Ziming knew very well that with his current strength, he was no match for the enemy unless he used his ultimate move.
Since he was in a cave, he only used a simplified version of "Thunder Appearance". Although there was no divine thunder from the Nine Heavens descending, the familiar sharp sword energy made Shangguan Ming's heart thump and he said, "Here we come."
He hurriedly gathered his energy, began to respond, and at the same time began to prepare for a counterattack.
Jin Ziming's "Dark Cloud Cover" was swung out, and thin clouds were actually formed in the cave. They swarmed towards the enemy and rolled away, and the misty clouds and mist changed violently.
Shangguan Ming changed his stance to defensive, while "Lighting the Earth" was originally an offensive move.
But this time, the sword energy did not shoot out, but instead formed a light shield around the body to resist the invasion of Leng Yue and Yun Zhi's sword energy.
The final killing move comes, "Wind and Cloud Surge" is launched, the clouds split, and a small cloud on the back right covers the enemy.
Shangguan Ming gathered his soul power and was preparing to attack while detecting the soul power fluctuations around his brain. He was ready to use his killing move at the moment before the opponent's soul was imprisoned.
The "Soul Cage" hadn't completely covered Shangguan Ming yet, and the golden short spear that had been charging for a long time carried most of his soul power and launched it boldly.
This extremely high-grade Horcrux broke through the cloud blockade without slowing down at all, and shot into Jin Ziming's mind.
Ye Ranyi let out a scream in the formation, but it couldn't be heard at all.
