Chapter 347: Inhumane, Being Tricked
“You want to obtain the treasure left by the founder of your sect so you can wreak havoc on the world?
Devil, I tell you, forget it!
Even if I die, I won’t tell you where that thing is!”
the white-bearded old man shouted, his face filled with grief and anger.
“Xiao Jianwen, why are you doing this?”
the figure with disheveled hair sighed. “You can’t use that thing, so why bother holding on to it?”
“Although I can’t use that treasure, I can’t let it fall into the hands of a devil like you and harm the people.
Otherwise, how can I face the ancestors below!”
The white-bearded old man remained unyielding.
“What if everyone in Qingyun Sword Pavilion died, and the lineage was lost, would you have the face to face those lousy ancestors?”
The figure with disheveled hair finally lost his patience at the white-bearded old man’s stubbornness.
With a casual grab, he snatched up a young disciple standing beside him.
The disciple suddenly cried out in terror, “Master, save me, save me!”
The disheveled figure didn’t stop the young disciple’s cries, but instead turned to the white-bearded elder.
“Xiao Jianwen, I remember this little fellow was your last disciple not long ago. Could you have the heart to let him be transformed into a piece of human skin like the people below me?”
“Devil, you are so ruthless and unworthy of being a human!”
The white-bearded elder cursed as he saw his beloved disciple being captured.
“That’s the way it should be.” The disheveled figure smiled cruelly. “Xiao Jianwen, if you don’t want him to be drained of his essence and blood and transformed into human skin, then tell me where that thing is right now!”
Watching his beloved disciple struggle in the devil’s grasp, tears streaming down his face, the white-bearded elder’s face was filled with pain.
“It seems that you are truly cruel, Xiao Jianwen. For the sake of your own righteousness, you are unwilling to save even the disciple you love like your own son.”
The disheveled figure’s eyes gleamed fiercely. Without further ado, he activated his Qi, and blood immediately shone from the young disciple’s head.
Being drained of blood and marrow while still alive, sucking out the essence and blood, was clearly an agonizing experience.
The young disciple let out an agonizing scream,
like the reappearance of a demonic spirit, eerie and terrifying.
“Stop, I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you!”
the white-bearded old man, finally unable to bear the thought of watching his beloved disciple die before his eyes, cried out dejectedly.
“Are you finally able to tell me, Little Jianwen?”
The figure with disheveled hair gleamed with satisfaction as he released the young disciple, letting him fall to the ground.
Yet, in just a few moments, the young disciple’s face had turned gray, and his hair had become somewhat withered.
In just a few breaths, he looked as if he had aged ten years.
Seeing this, the white-bearded old man felt even more pained, regretting not having made a decision sooner.
“Little Jianwen, tell me, where is that thing?”
the disheveled figure said calmly.
“Junior Master, if you want to know the treasure’s location, I’ll do it, but I have one condition,” the white-bearded old man said weakly.
“You want me to let these useless people go?”
The disheveled figure instantly read the other’s mind.
“Yes, if you release them, I’ll tell you, Junior Master, where the treasure is hidden.
Otherwise, even if you kill us all, you’ll never get it!”
Seeing the determination in the white-bearded elder’s eyes, the figure with disheveled hair knew he was telling the truth.
He knew the white-bearded elder’s temperament well.
If he continued to press, the old man would likely refuse to yield, refusing to compromise.
“Well, these losers are of no use to me anyway.
I feel like sucking their essence and blood would taint my cultivation.”
The disheveled figure waved his hand, and a black energy erupted, severing the ropes that bound the remaining men.
“Get out of here!”
“Sect Master!”
The untied men looked at the white-bearded elder.
He closed his eyes: “Let’s go. The situation is hopeless. If you leave, at least you’ll leave a legacy for our Sword Pavilion.”
The men trembled, kneeling and kowtowed three times to the white-bearded elder.
Then, supporting each other, they took the fallen young disciple with them and stumbled out of the mountain gate.
They had all been severely injured in their earlier fight with the disheveled old man, and could only walk with difficulty.
As they slowly disappeared outside the mountain gate, the disheveled figure turned and said, “Little Jianwen, I’ve let them go. Now, can you tell me where that thing is?”
“Young Master, you’re joking. With your magical powers, you could catch them in the blink of an eye if they walked this far. How could I dare take such a risk?
How about this? Wait half an hour, when Jianming and the others are truly safe, and I’ll tell you where the thing is.”
The white-bearded old man said expressionlessly.
“Little Jianwen, do you think I’m such a fickle and untrustworthy person?”
the disheveled figure sighed.
The white-bearded old man’s expression was cold, and he said nothing.
But his attitude said it all.
Seeing this, the disheveled figure’s eyes turned cold: “Okay, I’ll give you another half an hour. If you still don’t tell me, I’ll let you see what it means to be unable to live or die!”
The martial arts arena fell into silence.
The flickering torches, coupled with the eerie aura of the disheveled figure and the scattered human skins on the ground, created an atmosphere of unparalleled horror and strangeness.
Elder You crouched on the gate of Qingyun Sword Pavilion, carefully restraining his presence, daring not to move a single step.
The rare treasure in his arms emanated a wisp of aura that enveloped him,
blending him seamlessly with the surroundings.
The disheveled figure below, though seemingly of modest cultivation, evoked a sense of profound danger.
Coupled with the terrifying and strange magic the other party had previously displayed,
even with his treasure at hand, he remained cautious.
Sure enough, the host’s estimation had been correct.
The world was shifting, the spiritual energy was resurrecting, and not only were there children of destiny, peerless geniuses born to the destiny,
but countless demons and monsters were also emerging, stirring up chaos.
This strange demon must be one of those beings.
Time ticked by, drawing ever closer to the agreed half-hour deadline.
The atmosphere in the martial arts arena became increasingly oppressive.
Finally, the disheveled figure spoke: “Half an hour has passed, Xiao Jianwen, tell me, where is the thing?”
“Yes, half an hour has passed so quickly.”
The white-bearded old man said in an inexplicable tone: “Junior Master, do you think I will tell you where that thing is?”
“You dare to lie to me?!”
The disheveled figure opened his eyes, and a terrifying aura suddenly emanated from him.
“Xiao Jianwen, as the leader of a sect, you break your promise. Are you worthy of our ancestors?”
“I believed your slander that day and let you go. It was a great sin.
Now I have added another reputation of being untrustworthy, what does it matter.
But don’t you think of using my Jiange’s ancestral treasure to bring disaster to the world! “
“Good, very good!”
The disheveled figure laughed angrily, stretched out his hand and grabbed the white-bearded old man’s body, sucked it under his palm, and pinched his head.
“Xiao Jianwen, you asked for this, so you can’t blame me. I’ll let you taste the taste of the Soul Refining Method!”
As he spoke, black air emerged from his hand, transformed into small snakes, and drilled into the white-bearded old man’s head.
The black snakes seemed to contain some terrible meaning. As soon as they drilled into the white-bearded old man’s head, even the master of a sect could not bear it, and he immediately let out a shocking scream.
It was as if he was experiencing unimaginable pain, making him scream uncontrollably.
“How is it, my Soul Refining Method, the taste is not good, Xiao Jianwen, if you tell me where the thing is, I will give you a quick death! “
The voice of the disheveled figure contained a certain magical power. Even in this situation, it was still clearly transmitted to the white-bearded old man’s mind.
“Don’t… don’t even think about it. Even if my soul is scattered, I… won’t tell you…”
The white-bearded old man gritted his teeth, as if the words came out from the depths of hell.
“Humph, you’re looking for death!”
The disheveled figure saw this moment, and the other party was still unwilling to say anything, with a cruel look in his eyes.
No longer holding back, the black energy in his hand surged, completely covering the white-bearded old man’s head.
“Ah!!!”
The white-bearded old man let out another earth-shattering scream, his whole body twisted and trembling, which was shocking to watch.
But even though he was tortured by unimaginable pain, the white-bearded old man still did not beg for mercy, let alone reveal the treasure.
In the end, under the destruction of the black energy, the white-bearded old man’s body gradually stopped twisting, and the breath of life slowly dissipated. He
was actually tortured to death.
“You are in so much pain that your soul is scattered, but you are not willing to say it, Xiao Jianwen, you’ll get it!”
That old immortal once said you were strong-minded, and he wasn’t wrong.”
Looking at the white-bearded old man, who collapsed to the ground, breathless, with disheveled hair, no matter how upset he was, he could only accept this outcome.
“However, I don’t believe you could really hide that thing so well.
Wait until I set fire to this broken Sword Pavilion and see if it will appear in the world!” “
The figure with disheveled hair would never give up like this.
To him who had not been reincarnated, that thing was just an ordinary thing.
But to him who is now penniless, it is very important.
So he must get it.
After saying that, the figure with disheveled hair no longer hesitated, and immediately started to set fire everywhere. After all, that thing was not afraid of fire.
The raging fire gradually engulfed the entire Qingyun Sword Pavilion. The
figure with disheveled hair stood in the center of the martial arts field, closed his eyes, and sensed the movements of the entire Qingyun Sword Pavilion.
There was a trace of spirituality in that thing, and as long as it leaked a trace of aura, it would not escape his perception.
The figure with disheveled hair sensed with all his strength, but, until the flames were almost extinguished.
He still did not feel the aura he wanted to sense.
“Damn, where did this old guy hide the thing! “
Finally, the disheveled figure became angry and kicked the corpse of the white-bearded old man into the flames.
His eyes were red and his aura was extremely violent, as if he would completely explode in the next moment.
But in the end, he suppressed the murderous intent in his heart and did not explode.
There was even an inexplicable weakening of his aura, which quickly fell back.
“Ahem, damn kid, I will avenge that knife blow sooner or later! “
The disheveled figure coughed twice and said viciously.
That day in the Holy City, he was injured by Lu Qing’s sword energy and was forced to use the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Method to barely escape.
Not only was his vitality seriously injured, but more importantly, Lu Qing had just survived the calamity and there was still thunder calamity remaining in his body.
The sword energy that was cut out also contained a trace of calamity.
For demon cultivators like the disheveled figure, the thunder calamity is what they hate the most.
So even though so much time has passed, he came out of Zhongzhou and devoured the blood and essence of many people along the way.
But he still couldn’t completely recover from his injuries.
This is one of the reasons why he must get the thing.
As long as If he could refine that thing, he would not only be able to fully recover from his injuries, but also be able to reach a higher level and initially condense the foundation of his demonic body.
Unfortunately, this plan was doomed to fail.
Looking at the burnt Qingyun Sword Pavilion, the figure with disheveled hair prepared to leave.
He also thought that since he set the fire, he still couldn’t find that thing.
Obviously, the thing should have been moved away in advance by that old man Jianwen.
No wonder he insisted on letting those people leave before, it is very likely that the thing is on them!
Thinking of this, the figure with disheveled hair suddenly realized that he might have been tricked by Jianwen.
He actually gave the thing away in front of him!
“But, little Jianwen, do you think you are the only one who has calculated this? I have already put the demonic energy mark on those people.
Not to mention running for half an hour, even if they run to the ends of the earth, I have a way to find them!”
The figure with disheveled hair spoke softly towards the place where the corpse of the white-bearded old man lay.
Then he took a big step forward and walked out without looking back.
After being tricked by the white-bearded old man, he decided that he would not only recover the item.
He also wanted to kill all the people in Qingyun Sword Pavilion and completely cut off the incense and inheritance of this sect!
The figure with disheveled hair walked out of the mountain gate and immediately used his skills to rush down the mountain.
The Qingyun Sword Pavilion fell into silence again.
Only the fire that was still not extinguished was crackling.
It was not until a long time later that a black figure slowly climbed down from the mountain gate of Qingyun Sword Pavilion.
Elder You looked at the Qingyun
Sword Pavilion that was completely burned in front of him with a little sigh in his eyes. He also knew something about the Qingyun Sword Pavilion sect.
It was also an ancient sect that had existed for a thousand years.
According to the information passed down from their ancestors of Wujian Tower, this sect even participated in the operation to encircle and suppress their Wujian Tower.
But he never expected that he would be easily destroyed by a mysterious and terrifying existence.
“What is the origin of that person just now? He has a set of magic skills, which are weird and terrifying. He is even more terrifying than the legendary practitioners of the magic way.”
Elder You still felt a chill when he thought of the scene he saw before.
He had never seen such magic skills in his ancestors’ records, such as being able to directly suck the essence of human bone marrow and blood to strengthen himself.
However, at this moment, a sinister voice suddenly sounded not far away.
“No wonder I always feel that something is wrong. It turns out that there are really rats hiding in the dark.”
As soon as these words were heard, Elder You shuddered.
A chill rose from the bottom of his heart and went straight to the top of his head.
