Chapter 58 Kill with one sword and go to the desert oasis
"Actually, you are not this person, are you? Which senior are you?"
Zhao Yuanliang has lived for hundreds of years and thinks he is well-informed. He is even more confident that he has few rivals in the Southern Emperor Territory.
Nowadays, a young man with Yuanshen realm strength suddenly appeared. Naturally, he didn't want to believe it, but he guessed it instead.
However, his question did not elicit a response from Cao Chuan.
After hearing what he said, Mu Qingqiu, who controlled Cao Chuan's body, said to himself: "A guy like you who doesn't follow the right path and associates with demons and evil spirits in order to seek immortality should be cut to pieces, even if
Even if you fall into the eternal hell, it will be an advantage for you."
Mu Qingqiu's hatred towards evil was self-evident, and Zhao Yuanliang naturally did not say anything more. He just tremblingly took out a dark spiritual stone from his arms and stuffed it directly into the body that had just been blasted by the Heaven-Slashing Sword.
A hole in the chest.
"ah!"
The moment the black spirit stone came into contact with flesh and blood, a violent and evil force suddenly poured into Zhao Yuanliang's body.
Amidst the shrill screams, Zhao Yuanliang's empty chest was quickly filled with a ball of dark, viscous liquid.
When the gap was completely closed, a bloodshot black eye opened at the heart, squirming up and down, left and right, looking around until it locked its gaze on Cao Chuan's body.
"Although your appearance did cause some loopholes in my supposedly perfect plan, today's results will not change because of your appearance!"
"And now I am very much looking forward to what level I can break through after absorbing and refining you."
Zhao Yuanliang, whose body was filled with the dark and viscous unknown liquid, not only returned to his previous state, but even further improved his realm directly to the Yuanshen realm.
Cao Chuan, who was originally controlled by Mu Qingqiu, was completely suppressed. He straightened his back in an instant, and what flashed in his eyes was no longer panic, but the ultimate desire for Cao Chuan's body.
Mu Qingqiu, who felt the change in Zhao Yuanliang's momentum behind him, immediately turned around under control.
When he saw the eye on the opponent's heart, his whole body was immediately filled with murderous intent, and the Heaven-Destroying Sword in his hand began to tremble violently.
The momentum of the Yuanshen realm began to rise continuously, becoming more and more fierce.
Pointing his sword at Zhao Yuanliang, Mu Qingqiu said in a deep voice: "I thought you were just a little person whose mind was confused by evil spirits, but I didn't expect that you could actually produce something as evil as the "Demon Transformation Stone"
, it seems that you have completely become an evil villain."
"Hahahaha... You are right! This is indeed the effect of the magic stone!"
Zhao Yuanliang didn't want to hide it. When Mu Qingqiu said it, he said honestly: "The Demon Transformation Stone, which is fused with the Dao Heart of the evil cultivator, has the miraculous effect of the flesh and bones of the living dead. Even if it is Dao
The heart can be broken and the Dantian can be recovered even if it is wiped out."
"Speaking of which, I killed many evil cultivators in order to obtain this magic stone. I wonder what you think, senior?"
As he finished speaking, Zhao Yuanliang looked at Cao Chuan with a joking look.
It's like it was not his intention to become what he is now.
He wanted to make Cao Chuan confused with these few words.
However, Zhao Yuanliang had considered everything, but failed to realize that the person controlling Cao Chuan's body was not himself, but Mu Qingqiu, the Heaven-Destroying Sword God.
Mu Qingqiu's sword mind is clear and will not be affected by the outside world at all.
No matter how nice what Zhao Yuanliang said, it would only make the anger in her heart burn even more intensely.
So the next moment Zhao Yuanliang was about to continue to use words to confuse Cao Chuan.
Mu Qingqiu took action.
This time the shot was faster and more violent than before.
It is also the Heaven-Destroying Earth-Destroying Sword Technique. What splits the heaven and the earth and shatters the space is no longer the sword light, but the Heaven-Destroying Sword Qi that spans thirty thousand miles across the world, as if everything in the world will perish and be destroyed.
.
"boom!"
Like thunder, like violent wind and rain.
The entire ownerless city began to collapse under the force of this sky-cutting sword that spanned thirty thousand miles across the world.
"No...impossible! This is definitely not a power that a Yuanshen realm monk can unleash!"
Zhao Yuanliang, who had used the Demon Stone to forcibly upgrade his realm to the realm of Yuanshen, knew very well how much power he could possess.
At this moment, the Heaven-Destroying Sword Qi had already arrived in front of him. Zhao Yuanliang, who was pale and trembling all over, shouted in disbelief: "No! You are not a Yuanshen realm monk at all! Who are you? What on earth are you?
Who sent you to deal with me!"
"ah!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Heaven-Destroying Sword Qi had already penetrated Zhao Yuanliang's body.
Mu Qingqiu, who was in a state of anger and no longer held back, did not give Zhao Yuanliang another chance. The sky-cutting sword energy directly crushed everything in its path into powder.
When the roar in his ears, like a mountain collapsing, finally dissipated, Zhao Yuanliang was nowhere to be seen in the clear sky.
"whispering sound···"
With a soft sigh, Mu Qingqiu controlled Cao Chuan's body and turned into an afterimage and disappeared in front of everyone.
After returning to the ground, he handed his body back to Cao Chuan.
Although Cao Chuan didn't take action, he witnessed everything with his own eyes. After finally returning to his body, he immediately excitedly asked Mu Qingqiu: "Senior Mu, when do you think I can be like you and slash with one sword?"
Thirty thousand miles across the world?"
"You? You're still early."
In the sea of consciousness, Mu Qingqiu's voice was so weak that he said impatiently: "I just want to have a good sleep now, and I will tell you when I wake up."
After saying that, before Cao Chuan could say anything else, Mu Qingqiu disappeared without a trace.
If her breath hadn't been coming intermittently from the sea of consciousness, Cao Chuan would have thought that her remaining soul had dissipated.
Sensing that Mu Qingqiu had just fallen into a deep sleep, Cao Chuan felt relieved and immediately gave up the idea of asking further questions. He went back to the previous house and found Yu Shengnan who was still unconscious on the bed.
Since Zhao Yuanliang had been beheaded, the formation that could no longer be maintained without its eyes also collapsed.
No longer needing to worry about being corroded by the blood falling from the sky, Cao Chuan quickly stepped forward to wake up Yu Shengnan and asked her to leave with him.
And at the same time.
Also because of Zhao Yuanliang's death, the eight elder deacons who had been helping the former from the beginning were all blind, their bodies fell to the ground stiffly, and they were now surrounded by the surviving monks.
There were monks who were good at searching souls and immediately searched their souls.
Soon, all the memories hidden in the sea of consciousness of the eight elder deacons were searched out, and everyone was able to learn that the old city lord Zhao Yuanliang was actually the city lord of the Lordless City and had already been setting up the sky-shielding formation since he became the city lord.
However, in order to ensure that his plan could be fully implemented, Zhao Yuanliang also specifically proposed the establishment of eight elder deacons as the city lord to balance his power, so as to ensure that the rules in the Lordless City were absolutely fair and just.
However, in fact, the reason why Zhao Yuanliang established these eight elders and deacons was to facilitate the arrangement of the sky-shielding formation.
As the elder deacon interacted with him more and more frequently, he was subtly affected by the power of the magic stone, and gradually became a living puppet controlled by Zhao Yuanliang.
The so-called living puppets are puppets that do not show any abnormality in daily life, but in fact they only obey the orders of their masters.
This was the case for the eight elder deacons. Due to their low level, the sea of consciousness was eroded by the magic stone, and they all became puppets who could only obey Zhao Yuanliang's orders.
But for Zhao Yuanliang, controlling the eight elders and deacons is not enough.
In order to ensure that no accidents would occur when launching the great formation to cover the sky and the sun, he came up with another more vicious plan.
Since there are many monks in the Lordless City who are similar to his own, in order to prevent these people from destroying his plan, Zhao Yuanliang thought of using the demon stone to drive the monster puppets, and then wait for the beast tide to form, and then act sanctimoniously.
He organized the monks in the city to hunt the monsters and specially arranged the beast tide deep in the desert.
There are no other human beings living in the depths of the desert. If you accidentally die there, you will be truly ignored.
Zhao Yuanliang gained a better reputation by fighting beast tides again and again and preventing monks from fighting against beast tides. At the same time, he also consumed many monks who could affect his plans.
However, the plan still failed to satisfy Zhao Yuanliang at this stage.
So he continued to lie dormant and wait. When every monk who came to the Lordless City volunteered to dedicate everything to this city, he finally felt that the time was ripe. Now was the best time to activate the sky-shielding formation.
days.
In the first step, Zhao Yuanliang launched a beast wave again.
This beast tide still broke out in the depths of the desert, but both the scale and the level of the monsters were far greater than before, so most of the monks sent out were the highest level in the city.
When the monk team reached the depths of the desert and began to fight against the beast tide, the puppets placed in the team by Zhao Yuanliang cooperated with the beast tide inside and outside, killing many high-level monks in one fell swoop.
After this beast tide ended, the second step of the plan began.
Although it was still an outbreak of a beast tide, the purpose of these monster beasts was not to consume the monks in the city, but to block the monks outside the city. Zhao Yuanliang did not want to encounter interference from the outside when the sky-shielding formation was activated.
The first two steps of the plan went very smoothly.
The third step of the plan, that is, directly activating the sky-shielding formation, was not a mistake.
Zhao Yuanliang successfully obtained the blood and lifespan of many monks, and he also successfully rejuvenated himself.
Next, there is only one step left for him to successfully break through the realm and become a Yuanshen realm monk, and gain a vast lifespan that far exceeds that of monks in the same realm.
Even if it is not true immortality, it still gives him enough time to pursue immortality again.
Zhao Yuanliang's plan was indeed brilliant, so brilliant that everyone still believed that the old city lord was a truly benevolent and righteous man before he survived.
It's a pity that although his plan was perfect to the extreme, it still couldn't escape the ending of failure.
The appearance of Cao Chuan and Yu Shengnan would not affect his plan, but Mu Qingqiu could.
Mu Qingqiu, who was named the Heaven-Destroying Sword God in ancient times, could open up the world with just one sword, and his sword energy spanned the world for thirty thousand miles. Zhao Yuanliang was naturally no match for him.
But the monks only knew that the old city lord Zhao Yuanliang was secretly planning all this, but they could not see from their memories who killed Zhao Yuanliang and allowed them to escape.
All that remained in everyone's minds was that bright sword light.
outside the city.
Not wanting to cause too much trouble for himself, Cao Chuan took Yu Shengnan and ran out of the Masterless City.
Fortunately, after Zhao Yuanliang's death, the demonic beasts who were also puppets stopped taking any action and just stood there in a daze.
At this time, the outside monks who came to the Lordless City because of the outbreak of the beast tide killed one monster after another and appeared in front of Cao Chuan and Yu Shengnan on a bloody road.
I saw Cao Chuan and Yu Shengnan and the Lordless City filled with the smell of blood behind them.
Outside monks quickly stepped forward to protect the two of them and asked about the situation in the city.
Naturally, Cao Chuan would not tell the truth. After transforming Mu Qingqiu into a mysterious power, he told the outside monks everything that had happened before.
"Is this true? I didn't expect such a terrible thing to happen in the Lordless City."
"Yes! What is even more unimaginable is the old city lord. If something like this hadn't happened today, who would have thought that the old city lord who was praised and worshiped by countless monks would actually be an evil villain."
"But who is that mysterious powerful man? He can actually kill the old city lord with one sword. I'm afraid he must be at the Yuan Shen realm, right?"
After listening to Cao Chuan's description, everyone was filled with emotions. Some scolded Zhao Yuanliang for being evil, while others lamented the power of the mysterious power Cao Chuan spoke of.
As for Cao Chuan and Yu Shengnan, who were walking away again, they were ignored by them.
In their opinion, the two were just young people who had just escaped from the city.
This was exactly the effect Cao Chuan needed. He didn't want to be mistaken for Mu Qingqiu or Zhao Yuanliang.
As for what the Lordless City will become or become in the future, this is not something he can decide alone. Instead of worrying about the future of a city, it is better to take yourself to a safe place and have a good rest.
······
In front of the Lordless City is a desert.
There are no traces of human habitation in the desert, and monsters don't like to stay in such a deserted place.
Now it has become the safest place for Cao Chuan and Yu Shengnan.
Zhao Yuanliang's death was destined that the beast tide that broke out because of the former would not break out again at least in a short period of time. In addition, the desert was inaccessible, so even if the two of them were sitting directly on the yellow sand to sleep, no one would disturb them.
However, the two of them did not stop.
Even though there was still more than half a month left before the Tianling Institute's admission examination, the two of them sped up.
It didn't take long for the two people, who were moving at full speed, to see oases dotted like dots in front of their eyes.
In the oasis, traces and breath of human beings finally appeared.
"Let's go, it's just the last few steps."
Cao Chuan took Yu Shengnan's hand and walked together into the seemingly peaceful and peaceful desert oasis.
