Swordsman the Wanderer
Ch. 685 - No One Can Save You
Xian Wu let out a dark aura from his body and expanded at high speed. In the blink of an eye, his tube was completely enveloped in a dark light, as if he had completely fused with the darkness.
Wusshhhh!!!
Suddenly, a streak of dark light pierced through the darkness.
This light was in the shape of a sword, cutting through everything in its path. Moreover, this sword was filled with clumps of demonic qi, which curved into a faint silhouette of a demonic figure.
Zhang En who saw that sword attack mixed with dark energy came towards him, he casually raised his hand, slapping forward.
Buzzzz!!!
The power of Buddhist light shot out from Zhang En's palm, forming dozens of Buddha statues, each of them seemingly alive, releasing light into the entire palace hall.
Xian Wu's attack instantly dispersed, forcing Xian Wu's body out into the darkness and causing him to fall violently onto the floor with an injured body.
Xian Wu felt a sense of despair now, that his opponent's strength was now beyond measure from his cultivation. His eyes showed that he had lost the will to fight.
As he saw Zhang En approaching, his face became a little paler. Then, as if recalling something, he exclaimed, "You're the new Zhang En who rose in rank recently, right?!"
All the participants on the previous top 10 ranking list, Xian Wu recognized them very well.
"Yes! "
Hearing Zhang En's short answer, Xian Wu's fear deepened. He had noticed the changes on the ranking list recently and was aware of the deaths of all the disciples of the Yu and Tang Clans.
Xian Wu hurriedly retreated, trying to get away from Zhang En, saying, "Zhang En, did you kill me?!"
Seeing the fear on Xian Wu's face, Zhang En shook his head, “Although killing you will give me your points and my rank can rise again. But it will only go up one rank. That's because your rank is one rank away from me. It's totally free if I kill you. I want to fight those who are ranked third or ranked first after this ”
"Then, what do you want?" Xian Wu felt there was a thin hope of survival, and he calmed down a little.
“You can live as long as you become my subordinate by marking your soul. You were not a slave, but only worked and served me for 1 century. After that, you can be free"
Life was more important than death, Xian Wu nodded in agreement for his life.
After which, Zhang En performed a soul marking, then took out a bottle of healing pills and threw them at Xian Wu.
Initially, Xian Wu did not care much about the contents of the pill bottle until he opened the bottle and looked at the pills inside. He was shocked, because the pills inside the bottle were extremely rare and precious.
Zhang En then waved his hand in the air. Instantly, a pile of god-class spirit stones fell to the ground, filling the entire hall with rich spiritual energy.
"This-this, a god-class spirit stone?!" Xian Wu stared at the pile of spirit stones before him, half-dreaming in surprise.
"For me, servants or subordinates are not slaves. This is your payment for being my subordinate."
A god-class spirit stone was a rare treasure and wealth to Xian Wu, but to Zhang En, it was akin to a small pebble that was by the roadside.
While Xian Wu was again staring at the numerous god-class spirit stones, Zhang En turned his head to look at the dragon bones floating high in the palace hall.
Swwoosh!!!
The three forces of Zhang En's body revolved rapidly, forming a devouring force.
Instantly, a hundred more pieces of dragon bone were now drawn towards Zhang En forming a circle around Zhang En.
Awe-inspiring dragon power flowed out from those bones, entering Zhang En's body.
Different when absorbing the life energy of the Wu and Tang Clans earlier, it could only increase 5 percent of its strength.
A while later, the dragon energy from the dragon bone was exhausted and its bones fused into Zhang En's body.
Finally, Zhang En's new foundation and cultivation rose the previous level strengthened and his dragon's physical strength increased and his cultivation neared the peak stage.
"Hummpphhhm! "
Zhang En turned to look at Xian Wu who was looking at him with a look of disbelief.
"Damn it, what kind of monster are you to be able to absorb all the precious energy of that dragon bone so quickly?"
"We should take advantage of the time to find the formation of all the palaces at the top of this mountain." Zhang En did not answer Xian Wu's question, then turned around and flew out of the hall.
Xian Wu could only pause for a moment, then chased after Zhang En. A glimmer of fear appeared in his eyes as he looked at Zhang En's back.
...
One day later.
In this one day, Zhang En had found some rare medicinal herbs and some treasures around the palace.
Just as they reached the hall of one of the other palaces, a figure flew in from the gate of the palace they were currently visiting.
"Oh, Xian Wu!"
“Chu Bai!”
Xian Wu and Chu Bai exclaimed at the moment together, both of them were surprised to not expect to meet at that place
Zhang En looked at Chu Bai's presence with interest. Instead, Chu Bai also glanced at Zhang En.
The two of them finally met each other.
"Brother Wu, what's the name of this fellow you're with?” Ask Chu Bai.
Xian Wu hesitated, and quietly asked Zhang En's opinion.
Realizing this, Chi Bai was slightly stunned.
Just as Zhang En was about to say something another mocking voice sounded, "Ah, Chu Bai, since when did you start to notice the 2-star Golden God brat?"
A young man who had just arrived emitted a faint yet sharp sword qi from his body, combined with an invisible pressure that was condensed with an aura of blood and slaughter.
The moment he appeared, his presence filled the hall with incredible slaughter qi.
“Tian Fu.” When Xian Wu saw this young man, his face looked surprised.
Tian Fu was a participant who was currently ranked third.
"Hehe, the meeting this time felt very lively. Chu Bai, Tian Fu, Xian Wu, it looks like I'm a little late.”
Not long after Tian Fu arrived, a young man named Shi Qi also appeared.
"There are five keys to the palace formation. Looks like the three of you also got the key to the formation of the entire palace." Shi Qi snorted.
"Hemm, boy, did you get one of them?" Tian Fu asked as he looked at Zhang En. "But, with that cultivation of yours, you are not qualified to participate in this place and are even less qualified to possess any treasures left behind by the Demon God. I advise you to hand the formation key to me. That way, I'll let you live!"
Hearing Tian Fu's words, Zhang En laughed in response, “To be honest, I don't have the key you're referring to, me and Xian Wu happened to enter this palace. But, if you hand over the key you have to me, I will give face to your clan patriarch after the competition is over. Also, I will let you live.! "
As soon as Zhang En said these words, Chu Bai and Shi Qi shook their heads, the look in their eyes clearly looked at Zhang En with a look of pity.
“Son, you think I wouldn't dare kill you because Xian Wu is here? I don't care who you are, no one can save you now!"
Swooss!!!
The invisible sword energy from Tian Fu's body surged into several times stronger.
Rumblee!!
Explosions resounded in the hall as streams of bloodthirsty sword energy formed waves of fierce wind.
