Chapter 144
Two days later.
In the faint blood-colored space, at the lower reaches of a river.
Whoosh!
A tall and straight young man, alone, floated in from the outer region of the space.
"I'm almost at the central garden..."
Chen Yu put away the animal skin map in his hand and gazed at a mysterious garden shrouded in a faint blood-colored membrane in the distance.
He could faintly make out some ancient, deathly still buildings within the membrane.
That was the center of the Blood Burial Garden. This secret realm had once been owned by many mighty figures and had many legends about it.
After mastering the Bronze Statue Skill, Chen Yu approached the central garden alone.
In the past two days.
Chen Yu occasionally encountered disciples of the three sects or Demon Bone Palace.
Strangely.
The Demon Bone Palace disciples, especially the two or three who were alone, quickly retreated when they saw Chen Yu. Their expressions were rather fearful.
It seemed.
The Demon Bone Palace's camp temporarily gave up on encircling Chen Yu.
Chen Yu guessed that while Demon Bone Palace wanted to hunt him down, they didn't want to waste too much manpower and energy.
After all, Mei Changqing's personal pursuit had ended in failure.
Any other ordinary person would basically be sending themselves to their deaths.
The greatest fortuitous encounter in the Blood Burial Garden was the central garden. If he had to share most of his time and energy for a single Chen Yu, it would be a loss.
It could be seen that Mei Changqing hadn't lost his reason.
But Chen Yu believed that he hadn't given up on killing him.
It was just that the time had not come.
Whoosh!
Chen Yu didn't hesitate and approached the mysterious garden shrouded in a blood-colored membrane.
"Yunyue Gate disciples? Leave none alive! "
An indifferent and callous voice came faintly from a nearby hill.
Boom boom boom! Ding ding!
The sounds of intense fighting approached from afar.
Chen Yu was used to such confrontations.
Disciples of the same faction might kill each other in the face of extremely precious treasures, much less between the three sects and Demon Bone Palace.
"Yunyue Gate?"
Chen Yu stopped in his tracks and sent his insects to explore the way while he himself quickly approached.
On a hill, dust rose as the two sides fought fiercely.
There were six or seven people on Bone Devil Palace's side.
The two people in the lead were a cold-faced man with a pitch-black saber in his hand and a beautiful girl with a red mark on her forehead.
Both of them were at the late stage of the Organs Refinement Realm.
Chen Yu had met the red-sand girl once or twice. She was Jiang Ping, one of the top three in the Bone Demon Palace. He had seen her in action during the battle in the Northern Mountain Spirit Garden.
At this very moment …
Jiang Ping had already reached the peak of the Viscera Refinement Realm.
The other five Bone Devil Palace disciples were at the early-stage and mid-stage of the Organs Refinement Realm. All of them were brimming with killing intent.
"Ah …"
A tragic cry sounded. A disciple from the Three Sects' camp had been killed by two disciples from the Bone Demon Palace.
The one who died was an Iron Sword Sect disciple.
On the side of the three sects, there were three Yunyue Gate disciples and two Iron Sword Sect disciples.
The battle had only lasted for a short while, but one person had already died.
On the side of the Yunyue Gate.
The leader was a cold-faced black-robed youth. His eyes were bloodshot, and he held a long saber in his hand. He swung out streaks of violent blood-colored saber light shadows.
"Blood Mad Saber Chang Xuan, you're quite strong."
The red-sand girl smiled slightly. Her slender figure flickered around Chang Xuan. She did not fight head-on.
Her speed seemed to be on par with the Seamless Bandit.
Whoosh!
The red-sand girl waved her hand, and a sharp black thread flashed through the air.
Chang Xuan's expression changed drastically as he retreated explosively.
"Chi!"
A bloody mark could be seen on his shoulder, and a thin crack could be seen on his Fine Grade armor.
He focused his gaze.
On Jiang Ping's finger, there was a black and lusterless thread. It looked thinner than a normal needle and thread.
However, this black thread turned into a sharp black thread in her hand. It moved strangely like a ghost. It was hard and flexible, and difficult to defend against.
In terms of cultivation and speed, Jiang Ping was superior to Chang Xuan.
Coupled with the unfathomable power of the black thread, Chang Xuan was completely suppressed by the girl.
At the same time, on the other side.
The cold-faced late-stage Viscera Refinement man from the Bone Demon Palace was being held up by a man and a woman from the Yunyue Gate.
Of these two people, one was an elegant youth with a folding fan in his hand, and the other was a beautiful and refined girl.
They were Nangong Li and Mu Xueqing.
At this moment.
The two of them were actually evenly matched with the cold-faced man from the Bone Demon Palace.
However.
After one of the two Iron Sword Sect disciples died. The Bone Demon Palace still had four or five Viscera Refinement disciples. They had a huge advantage in terms of numbers.
"Fall back and form a formation!"
Chang Xuan exclaimed.
The red-sand girl was stronger than he had imagined. She had been suppressed since the start of the battle.
Whoosh whoosh!
The three from the Yunyue Gate retreated and gathered together.
"Ah!"
There was another scream. The remaining Iron Sword Sect disciple was a step too slow, and his head was cut off by the red-sand girl's black thread.
Immediately.
On the three sects' side, only Chang Xuan, Nangong Li, and Mu Xueqing were left. All of them were injured.
The Bone Demon Palace side had not lost a single person. Including the red-sand girl, the cold-faced man, and the other five disciples, there were a total of seven people.
"Kill!"
The seven from the Bone Demon Palace immediately surrounded the three from the Yunyue Gate.
Chang Xuan and the other two were in imminent danger. They were surrounded by the seven from the Bone Demon Palace and forced to retreat to a hill.
"I will immediately use the Mad Blood Secret Saber. Take advantage of the situation to break out."
Chang Xuan transmitted.
Once he used the Mad Blood Secret Saber, he would enter a frenzied killing mode. He might even accidentally injure his own people.
"Senior Brother Chang …"
Nangong Li and Mu Xueqing looked like they could not bear to see this happen.
Although Chang Xuan's combat strength would increase by a level after using the Mad Blood Secret Saber, his opponents were the second and fourth strongest of the Bone Demon Palace's secret arts.
Moreover, Chang Xuan would enter a weakened state after using this secret art.
"Mad … Blood … Secret … Saber!"
Chang Xuan's pupils were filled with the color of blood. A bloody flow surged out of his body.
In an instant.
The long saber in his hand swung out streaks of bloody saber radiance. Layers of saber radiance and bloody shadows danced in a frenzy, forming a bloody saber tornado that covered an area of twenty to thirty feet.
Clang! Clang!
Clang! That overbearing attack immediately forced some of the weaker disciples from the Bone Demon Palace to retreat.
"Mad Blood Secret Saber? Hehe … all of you, move aside. Let me fight him. "
The red-sand girl chuckled softly. She seemed to be interested.
As soon as she finished speaking.
The cold-faced man led the other five people to retreat fifty to sixty feet. However, he did not let Mu Xueqing and Nangong Li go.
What happened next.
What shocked Mu Xueqing and Nangong Li was that Chang Xuan, who had entered a frenzied state, was stopped by the red-sand girl alone.
Hum!
The red sand on the red-sand girl's brow flickered with a demonic scarlet light. A strange scarlet line appeared on her fair face.
That was not all.
A layer of strange scarlet lines appeared on her slender arm. Her entire body emanated a demonic and powerful aura.
In an instant.
The red-sand girl's inner energy, strength, and speed all increased.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The black silk in Jiang Ping's hand danced in the air, creating a scarlet black silk tornado. Its momentum was vast and almost on par with Chang Xuan's.
Ding ding! Boom!
Two abnormally powerful forces collided. The nearby hills were instantly flattened.
The power level of the two's battle was probably at the Qi Transformation Realm.
If the two worked together, they would have a fighting chance even if Mei Changqing came personally.
The difference was.
When Chang Xuan used the Mad Blood Secret Saber, his mind was in chaos. Although his combat strength was strong, his control was average.
The red-sand girl, Jiang Ping, had a cold look in her eyes. She did not fight head-on. She exhausted Chang Xuan's Yuan Qi as much as possible.
"Mad Blood Secret Saber … is only so-so."
Jiang Ping's lips curled into a mocking smile.
In a head-on fight, she might be slightly inferior to the Mad Blood Secret Saber.
However.
She had complete control over her bloodline power. She only needed to fight for a while to force Chang Xuan into a state of weakness.
"It's over!"
"That Jiang Ping has bloodline power. She's ranked second in Bone Devil Palace's secret arts. She hid her strength so deeply."
Mu Xueqing and Nangong Li sank into despair.
The two had already reached the middle stage of Organs Refinement. If they worked together, they could even fight the top five of Bone Devil Palace's secret arts without being at a disadvantage.
But at this moment.
Secondly, they were facing the encirclement of the cold-faced man, who was ranked fourth in the secret arts. He was leading four or five disciples. They were constantly injured.
"Little girl, I heard that you were once the lover of the Javelin Demon Hunter …"
The cold-faced man's eyes revealed a trace of undisguised heat and greed. He stared at Mu Xueqing's beautiful and refined appearance.
If not for Nangong Li's mental secret arts that could occasionally be used to restrain everyone's attacks, he would have likely captured Mu Xueqing alive.
"Hahaha! Does Bone Devil Palace only know how to bully with numbers? "
A man's voice that sounded like a cauldron came from behind the Bone Devil Palace group.
The voice seemed to contain a power that intimidated the soul. The Bone Devil Palace group felt their minds and blood waver.
Who is it!
Jiang Ping and the cold-faced man's expressions changed at the same time. They felt a pressure that only an expert of the same level and above could bring.
Mu Xueqing and the cold-faced man instantly felt that the voice was extremely familiar.
"Brother Yu!"
"Chen!"
The two of them almost instinctively determined the identity of the newcomer from the voice.
Before the Bone Devil Palace group could turn their heads to identify or react.
Swoosh!
A cold javelin drew a cold silver-purple arc in the air. Its killing intent howled as it arrived in the blink of an eye.
"Be careful! It's the Javelin Demon Hunter … "
Jiang Ping and the cold-faced man warned at the same time.
However.
Their warnings were simply too late.
The speed of the javelin was simply too fast, and its strength was boundless.
Puchi!
The silver-tipped javelin drew out a bloody arrow as it pierced through the body of a Bone Devil Palace middle stage Organs Refinement disciple.
The low-grade treasure soft armor on this person's body was like paper.
In order not to affect their movements, most disciples wore treasure soft armor or leather armor. Very few of them wore heavy armor.
In front of Chen Yu's javelin, it was practically nonexistent.
Thump!
The middle stage Organs Refinement disciple had just fallen to the ground dead when a scream sounded again.
"Ah!"
The javelin's strength did not weaken much after piercing through one person. It continued to pierce through the chest of another Bone Devil Palace disciple in front of it.
"No …"
The second Bone Devil Palace disciple stared at the javelin that pierced through his chest. His face was filled with despair, terror, and disbelief.
In the blink of an eye.
The javelin had pierced through the bodies of two Bone Devil Palace disciples with terrifying strength.
Two kills with one spear!
The people around the Bone Devil Palace group gasped, their faces full of shock.
