Chapter 78 A Dark and Windy Night for Murder
"Kid! No matter who's behind you, if you know what's good for you, mind your own business and avoid getting yourself killed!"
The burly, tall Xuanmen cultivator let out a cold snort, his tone brimming with intimidation.
He looked down on Chen Jie, who only had the sixth level of Qi Condensation cultivation.
But in the dark,
He sensed a deadly danger emanating from the masked, hat-wearing monk.
He made threatening remarks, seemingly trying to force Chen Jie to back down and leave on his own initiative!
but,
He had already secretly prepared to silence them.
Another Xuanmen cultivator silently moved backward, blocking all of Chen Jie's escape routes.
Ever since learning that the target of the ambush was a direct descendant of the Zuo family of the White Bone Sect.
The four men had no intention of leaving any survivors.
If word gets out!
Given the Zuo family's vengeful nature, even if they fled to the ends of the earth, they would not escape relentless pursuit and would have no chance of survival.
"Hmph! You have the audacity to ambush and kill our White Bone Sect's inner disciples halfway! How dare you!"
Chen Jie deliberately shouted angrily.
He deliberately adopted the posture of sharing a common hatred with Zuo Feng and fighting against foreign enemies together as fellow disciples.
He is meticulous and extremely cunning.
The more loudly they emphasize their shared identity as fellow disciples of the White Bone Sect, the more likely they are to cut off the four cultivators' escape route.
This left them with no room to back down or back down, leaving them no choice but to bite the bullet and go all the way to silence them.
If Zuo Feng had undergone the brutal trials of the White Bone Sect's outer sect, he would have become a seasoned and experienced man.
He will surely see through Chen Jie's hidden ill intentions.
Unfortunately, he had grown up under the protection of his family and was simple-minded, with no experience of the dangers of the world, so he was completely unaware of anything unusual.
Hearing Chen Jie's words of support, Zuo Feng felt grateful and moved.
His family elders warned him from a young age that people are treacherous and that he should never trust anyone.
But this fellow disciple, who was wearing a mask and a bamboo hat, stepped forward to save his life at the critical moment.
He had long since let down his guard, and all that remained in his heart was gratitude and trust.
Swish!
At this moment,
The two Xuanmen cultivators decisively abandoned their attack on Zuo Feng.
They mobilized all their forces and charged towards Chen Jie, determined to kill this troublesome person who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"I'll trap him and finish this quickly!"
The tall, venerable cultivator stepped forward, his speed suddenly increasing.
He used a mysterious and unpredictable footwork technique!
His steps aligned with the Big Dipper, drawing upon the surrounding spiritual energy to surge and converge, causing his aura to surge dramatically.
boom!
The longsword in his hand suddenly trembled and exploded.
One sword splits into seven!
Seven sharp sword shadows rose into the air, their sword energy vast and boundless!
The domineering sword intent, imbued with the oppressive power of heaven and earth's spiritual energy, possessed overwhelming might and unstoppable killing power.
Chen Jie knew that the other party was a cultivator at the eighth level of Qi Condensation.
He himself was only at the sixth level of Qi Condensation, and was no match for her in a direct confrontation of true essence.
The only way to confront them head-on and crush them against the odds is to unleash the trump card, the Soul Refining Banner.
Waaah—!
Chen Jie clapped his hands, and the Soul Refining Banner instantly appeared, hovering above his head.
Eighteen illusory images of ninth-tier main souls appeared in response!
The mournful howls of ghosts echoed across the wilderness, the cold wind was biting, and the malevolent energy surged.
The eighteen main souls immediately split in two!
The two streams of soul energy split into two, each rushing towards the two Xuanmen cultivators and the two Momen cultivators respectively.
The next moment,
A sudden storm of malevolent energy swept across the entire battlefield, engulfing the desolate wasteland.
The terrifying power of the Soul Refining Banner, so fierce and malevolent, was fully revealed at this moment.
Within the storm, the souls roared and howled incessantly, their malevolent aura reaching the heavens!
An overwhelming and domineering killing intent soared into the sky.
Chen Jie stood at the very center of the storm, his aura suppressing all directions, like a demon god who held the power of life and death.
A storm of malevolent energy swept past, instantly engulfing the tall, powerful Xuanmen cultivator.
The powerful cultivators from the Xuanmen sect, who were so imposing just a second ago, collapsed to the ground the next second!
He clutched his head tightly with both hands, spitting out blood, his soul wracked with excruciating pain.
"You bastard! How could you..."
The tall, mysterious cultivator's voice was hoarse and harsh, his eyes filled with disbelief.
He never expected that...
A mere cultivator at the sixth level of the Qi Condensation Realm was able to unleash such terrifying, world-destroying combat power.
"Soul Refining Banner! You actually refined such an evil artifact and even cultivated a ninth-tier main soul!"
Swish!
Chen Jie took advantage of the moment when the other party was shocked and distracted, and his mind was in turmoil!
He flashed forward, his hand precisely gripping the other's neck with one hand, a chilling aura emanating from him. He let out a cold snort:
"You know it's too late."
He lifted the tall Xuanmen cultivator into the air with one hand, then turned to the other three cultivators and shouted sternly, "Stop right there!"
At this moment, the Xuanmen cultivator's sea of consciousness was violently impacted by the ninth-tier main soul, causing his soul to shatter and his aura to become chaotic.
His Qi Sea was on the verge of collapse, and he was no longer able to circulate his true energy or struggle against it!
He was easily manipulated by Chen Jie and had no chance to fight back.
Chen Jie channeled his power into his palm and shattered the opponent's dantian with a single strike.
In the blink of an eye,
This palm strike completely destroyed his life's cultivation, cutting off all his chances of turning the tables.
"Run! You all need to get out of here!"
The tall, powerful cultivator endured excruciating pain and weakly roared:
"This kid cultivates the Soul Refining Banner, and all the main souls under his command have advanced to the ninth rank!!"
The major sects of the Xuanmen have always regarded the Soul Refining Banner as an extremely evil weapon that blasphemes against the Heavenly Dao and harms living beings!
This is the biggest taboo of all.
On the other hand, while the demonic cultivators did not consider the Soul Refining Banner a taboo, they were well aware of its extreme difficulty in cultivation.
To refine the main soul and continuously advance its level, it needs a massive amount of dead souls to nourish it.
Even ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators would find it difficult to collect so many souls, let alone Qi Condensation cultivators.
In the eyes of cultivators from various sects of the Xuanmen.
Each time the Soul Refining Banner refines a soul, it adds a layer of blood sin, resulting in heavy sins, entanglement with karma, and extreme malevolence!
Once mastered, one is virtually invincible among those of the same level.
As the tall, vengeful cultivator's stern cry fell, the remaining three cultivators were terrified and immediately stopped fighting.
Looking at his companion who was being controlled by Chen Jie, and then hearing about the Ninth-Order Main Soul Refining Banner.
The three were so frightened that they turned around and scattered in all directions, not daring to stay for even a moment longer.
With the blessing of a ninth-tier main soul within the Soul Refining Banner, encountering it means certain death; if you don't leave, you'll be buried with it.
"Trying to escape? Do you think you can escape?"
Chen Jie twisted his wrist slightly, and a crisp cracking sound was heard.
He snapped the tall Xuanmen cultivator's neck and casually tossed the corpse aside.
Swish!
With a thought, the eighteen ninth-tier main souls immediately gave chase.
The malevolent energy condensed into a storm, instantly engulfing the three fleeing cultivators.
Even though the three of them fled for their lives in three different directions!
However, the entire battlefield was already shrouded in the Soul Refining Banner, and no one could escape the main soul's sniping.
The remaining Xuanmen cultivator had barely escaped five zhang before his consciousness was invaded by the main soul's evil energy, causing his soul to collapse in excruciating pain.
Followed by,
Chen Jie's longsword flashed through the air, the sword light swept past, and he directly severed the head with a single, clean stroke.
The other two demonic cultivators met the same fate!
Even though they ran for their lives, they couldn't get more than a few feet before Chen Jie's longsword killed them all on the spot.
A dark and stormy night for murder!
In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
The four Qi Condensation Level 8 cultivators who were besieging Zuo Feng were all slaughtered by Chen Jie, their corpses lying in the wilderness.
The entire battlefield was deathly silent, with only a chilling aura lingering in the air.
Clang!
Chen Jie twisted his wrist, and the longsword's blade was reversed!
The sharp killing intent was aimed directly at Zuo Feng, who was completely unprepared behind him.
He was ready to reap the rewards of this fat sheep and complete the final step of his scheme.
But just as Chen Jie was about to deliver the fatal blow...
Zuo Feng, his face beaming with surprise, shouted loudly without warning, his tone filled with ecstatic joy and relief:
"Message talisman sent! My eldest sister will be here soon!"
"Thank you so much, Senior Brother, for saving my life. I, Zuo Feng, will never forget this life-saving grace!"
"Once my older sister gets here, we'll be safe!"
Swish!
Chen Jie's sword suddenly stopped in mid-air, his movements abruptly frozen.
His expression froze for a moment, and a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes.
