C962 A Cruel Blow
Cruel blow.
"That was close. I almost exploded."
When the thick tree branch retracted, Hsiang Yang immediately used the 'Close, Yet Worlds Apart' technique without hesitation. His body flashed and merged into the void. In an instant, he appeared a hundred miles away and stopped. At this moment, his complexion wasn't very good, because his face was flushed red. The blood and Qi in his entire body rolled even more violently. Although his spirit was high, but he was not in a normal state.
"Boom..."
After that, Hsiang Yang hurriedly sat down with his legs crossed. A rumbling sound was heard from his body, and an incomparably majestic life force burst out from his body. If one looked closely, one would find that this life force was almost the same as the life force that erupted from the branch of the ancient tree that had been destroyed by Hsiang Yang.
No, it should be said that the two of them shared the same origin, because the life force that erupted from Hsiang Yang's body was exactly the same as the branch of the ancient tree.
"Rumble..."
In the depths of Hsiang Yang's bloodline, the Furnace Of Heaven And Earth had automatically formed. An incomparably strong life force was being continuously released from the Furnace Of Heaven And Earth. This life force was the life force that came from the black hole that erupted when Hsiang Yang used the 'Heaven Defying Divine Finger'. It was the life force that came from the Devil Tree's branch that was refined by the black hole. However, although Hsiang Yang had just shouted out the name of the Heaven Defying Divine Finger, the might it created was earth-shattering, but the life force wasn't refined by the finger.
Hsiang Yang did know a lot of finger techniques, and he did know a supreme technique called the 'Heaven Defying Divine Finger'. However, these divine abilities and finger techniques required the enhancement of true essence energy in order to unleash their full potential. The amount of energy Hsiang Yang could use right now could be said to be too little. No matter how heaven defying the technique was, it was impossible for it to unleash such a powerful attack. Therefore... When he was facing the attack of the Devil Tree's branch, he had already planned everything out. When he was using the branch to meet the attack head on, he would hide his bloodline innate ability, the Furnace Of Heaven And Earth. By using the Furnace Of Heaven And Earth's devouring power and destructive power to refine the Devil Tree's branch, not only would he be able to destroy the branch that had injured him, he would also be able to do so. He would also be able to refine the life force within it into his own energy.
Hsiang Yang's plan was flawless and carried out perfectly. However, when the Furnace Of Heaven And Earth really refined the branch, Hsiang Yang realized that he had overlooked one thing. The life force contained within the branch of the Devil Tree was too powerful. After the Furnace Of Heaven And Earth was refined, an incomparably majestic life force fused into his body. His body almost exploded due to the lack of energy. Luckily, the Furnace Of Heaven And Earth could still store most of the energy. He didn't release all of it at once. Otherwise, even with Hsiang Yang's physique, he would have exploded from this life force.
If such a moment really came, it would be Hsiang Yang's real tragedy. Fortunately, the Devil Tree couldn't hold on for too long. After a long segment of the branch was refined and destroyed, it couldn't hold on any longer. Finally, the branch was retracted. This made Hsiang Yang heave a sigh of relief. Before he could greet Zhang Xiaodao and Wang Dejian, he immediately used the 'Close, Yet Worlds Apart' divine ability and appeared a hundred miles away. Then, he fell into a state of cultivation. This was because he couldn't bear the impact of this powerful life force on his body anymore. He had to refine the life force contained within this ancient tree branch as soon as possible. Otherwise, when this life force rushed into his body, Hsiang Yang's entire body wouldn't be able to withstand the explosion of this powerful force.
"Rumble..."
Along with a deafening roar, a monstrous blood Qi burst out from Hsiang Yang's body. It was him who had continuously refined this boundless life force into his flesh and blood. Every cell of his was cheering.
The power of life was the most important energy of any living creature in the world. It was the energy that was necessary for the evolution of life cells. It is the foundation for the survival of the body of any living being in this world. At this moment, when the boundless life force merged into his body, Hsiang Yang's body underwent a shocking transformation. Every cell of his body was trembling. After obtaining sufficient life force, the metabolism of his body increased by millions of times, and countless impurities were continuously expelled from his body. The cells in the body were constantly being strengthened and tempered. They became stronger cells along with this process. His physical strength was also increasing.
...
"That guy ran away?"
Just as Hsiang Yang knocked away the enormous trunk of the ancient tree, Hsiang Yang vanished along with it. Zhang Xiaodao and Wang Dejian, who had flown a hundred thousand meters high in the sky to avoid Hsiang Yang's attack, were dumbfounded by what they saw. When they landed on the ground, their jaws dropped. They looked around, but they couldn't find any trace of Hsiang Yang. At this moment, both of them felt as if ten thousand horses were galloping in their hearts. No matter how they thought about it, they couldn't understand why Hsiang Yang could run.
"He clearly won the fight, why did he still run? Could it be that he was seriously injured and was afraid that he would be ambushed by us if he stayed behind? " Zhang Xiaodao muttered. He thought that the reason Hsiang Yang ran away was probably because he was seriously injured. Then, when he didn't believe the two of them, a look of dissatisfaction appeared on his face. "This is too much. It can be said that the two of us have the best moral character in the Four Great Sacred Grounds. The younger generation of the Four Great Sacred Grounds, no, no... It should be men, women, old, and young. Which one of them can compare to us? That fellow is actually worried that we will sneak in and attack him. This is an insult to our character. "
" This guy must be jealous of our moral character and think that we are too handsome. He is afraid that we will steal his limelight and embarrass ourselves in front of us. That's why he didn't dare to face us and ran away. "
... ""
"You..."
Looking at how furious Zhang Xiaodao was, feeling insulted by Hsiang Yang, Wang Dejian, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but slap his forehead and reveal a speechless expression. He really wanted to point at Zhang Xiaodao's head and scold him for being shameless. This guy was really too shameless. He had just told him everything that had happened in his childhood. No matter who heard the dirty things that this guy had done since he was young, no one would think that he was a man of character. And now, he blamed Hsiang Yang for insulting his good character. Who else could he blame? If he wanted to blame someone, he could only blame himself.
"I... Heavens, how could I be so stupid, to actually be this guy's brother for more than ten years." Wang Dejian couldn't wait to roar at the sky. He felt that it was too awkward. Fortunately, no one saw him around. Otherwise, he would have lost all his face.
"Forget it, forget it. Hurry up and find our weapon, then go and investigate what that thing was and then leave. We'll help this guy get the last trace of the Sixth Grade Peak beast's bloodline power before leaving." Wang Dejian felt that he was being too generous. He actually didn't fall out with Zhang Xiaodao on the spot. He sighed and walked forward, searching for the weapon that was hanging on the branch.
As for the rest, he really didn't want to argue with Zhang Xiaodao anymore. He was afraid that if he thought too much, he might accidentally slap this guy.
"Where's my Sky Trembling Devil Slaying Sword?" After hearing Wang Dejian's words, Zhang Xiaodao immediately rushed forward. They wanted to find his sword, but after a while of searching, they found that there was no trace of their weapon at all.
"Could it be that they were taken away by that big tree?"
Zhang Xiaodao's face was filled with disbelief, and his facial expression was extremely ugly. That sword of his was his favorite and the most powerful divine weapon amongst all his treasures. It was even named the 'Heaven Shaking Earth Slaying Sword'. He was still thinking of waiting for his cultivation base to advance to the Sixth Grade Peak. Once he returned to the Sacred Land, he would immediately apply for the bloodline power of a Seventh Grade Peak fierce beast from his family. After cultivating in seclusion, he would quickly break through to the Seventh Grade Stage. At that time, he would be able to use this bloodline power to show off in the Sacred Land for a period of time. However, he had actually disappeared... At this moment, he felt that something was wrong with his body.
Wang Dejian's expression was also very ugly. He didn't say anything. Instead, both of his hands formed a seal, and an incomparably powerful Qi burst out from his body. After that, a loud bang was heard. A mysterious aura spread out from his surroundings. It was the special method he used to communicate with his weapon.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."
At this moment, this aura spread out with a special aura. It was as if a gentle breeze blew past, sweeping across everything within a few miles. However, there was no movement on the ground or in the forest.1
"No! How could it be? Why can't I find it?"
After that, Wang Dejian opened his eyes. His face carried a look of disbelief. He had even used a special technique, but he still couldn't find the treasured saber. In that case, the chances of him finding the treasured saber was extremely slim.
"What's wrong? You actually didn't find it?" Zhang Xiaodao's expression changed when he saw this, and he quickly said, "I'll give it a try too."
"Boom..."
As he spoke, Zhang Xiaodao also formed a seal with both hands. A powerful Qi burst out from his body, and he used the same method to find the location of his High-grade Spirit Tool grade treasure sword. However, after a while, he opened his eyes as well. With a dull expression, he said to himself, "This is impossible. My divine sword is even ranked among the Four Great Sacred Grounds. Furthermore, after so many years of tempering, it has already reached the level of telepathy. It's even more obvious that it can't be destroyed, but how can it not be found? Could it be that Hsiang Yang stole it? But when he left, I saw it clearly. He didn't have anything on him, so it couldn't be him. But who? "
"It can't be the trunk of that thick tree branch. I even went there to take a look. When that tree branch retracted, it did not bring anything with it. Furthermore... The branch was obviously destroyed by the black hole created by Hsiang Yang's technique. Unless... unless our swords and sabers are destroyed as well! " As Wang Dejian muttered to himself in a low voice, a look of shock appeared on his face.
Logically speaking, their sabers and swords were treasures of the Divine Weapon grade. It was unlikely that they would be destroyed even in the Four Great Sacred Grounds. However, if they couldn't find it, it was impossible for them to be dragged back by the thick tree trunk. The only explanation was that they were destroyed by the attack of Hsiang Yang. This was unbelievable.
"This... This is impossible... Our swords and sabers are the top ranked Divine Weapon in the Four Great Sacred Grounds. How could it be destroyed just like that? Even an Eighth Grade expert wouldn't be able to do this. Could it be that Hsiang Yang has reached the legendary Stage Of Nine Grade? This is simply impossible." Zhang Xiaodao was in a very bad mood. He muttered to himself in a low voice. He kept guessing where his beloved divine sword had gone to.
"It might really be destroyed." However, his mood was much better than Zhang Xiaodao's. Besides, he did not look like he had suffered a big blow. After pondering for a while, he raised his head and looked forward. His eyes were flickering with a cold light as he spoke to Zhang Xiaodao. "So what if it's destroyed? It's just two swords and sabers. If we can find the main body of the tree branch, given the degree of serious injury it suffered from Hsiang Yang just now... Combined with our strength, if we can cut down that incomparably powerful ancient tree... After bringing it back, let alone losing the saber and the sword... Even if it's a great loss, it'll be enough to make up for it. "
The Endless Wilderness was a paradise for the otherworldlings. For the human cultivators, it was a paradise for them. There are endless dangers and opportunities. Especially for all kinds of ferocious beasts and abnormal creatures, if he could kill them and bring them back with him... The corpses of those beasts and spirits were worth a fortune. The tree branch of the ancient tree had such a powerful force. If the two of them could destroy the trunk of the ancient tree and bring it back, what they would get would definitely surpass the two weapons they had lost.
"Alright, let's give it our all, mother... After being exiled to Endless Wilderness for two years... Not only did my cultivation base not reach the peak of perfection, I even lost my natal weapon. This was simply too shameful. No, this time, Master said that he must kill the tree spirit that caused me to lose my divine sword. Otherwise, I would suffer a huge loss."
" Let's go. We brothers will give it our all and kill another Sixth Grade Peak ferocious beast. After killing a seventh grade ferocious beast, our cultivation base will reach the true great circle of the Sixth Grade Peak. At that time, we will be able to break through at any time. We will become the fastest amongst the young generation of the Four Great Sacred Grounds. "
"Boom..."
The two of them were not people who abided by their own rules. In addition, they had lost their treasures at this moment. They were depressed, so after a discussion, the two of them... They decided to take the risk to destroy the ancient tree. They wanted to make up for their loss. Therefore, they were decisive and decisive. In an instant, they shot in the direction of the ancient tree.
