186: The furnace is nice, how about giving it to me?
At the Zhao Family, in a secret location, an old man with crane-white hair, dressed in a Daoist robe, was refining pills. He frowned and said, “Fellow Daoist Zhao Shan, there’s a scoundrel in your Zhao Family. You should go deal with him first! Don’t let him disturb my refinement of this batch of renyuan pills.”
Next to him was a blue-robed old man, leaning on a walking stick, exuding an aura of death. His eyes were cloudy, and he spoke in a hoarse voice, “Alright!”
With that, he vanished from the spot.
In the square, Xie Weilou said indifferently, “Time to go on your way!”
The pressure from his foot gradually increased, accompanied by Zhao Hai’s incomparably shrill screams.
“Stop!”
Just then, a hoarse voice rang out. Zhao Shan, exuding an aura of death, rushed out. A Profound Manifestation Realm pressure erupted from him, directly locking down Xie Weilou.
“Big brother… save me…”
Zhao Hai’s voice was hoarse as he quickly cried for help.
Boom!
Xie Weilou stomped down hard, and Zhao Hai’s head exploded like a watermelon.
“It seems your head isn’t as hard as I imagined,” Xie Weilou said faintly.
“Beast, you’re courting death.”
Zhao Shan roared, his walking stick suddenly pointing out. A Profound Manifestation power instantly blasted towards Xie Weilou.
Xie Weilou’s figure flickered, retreating a hundred meters. A thirty-meter-diameter pit was instantly blasted into the ground.
He casually extended his hand, and the Tianluo Umbrella flew into his grasp, while the flying sword floated before him.
“Die!”
Blood light flickered in Zhao Shan’s eyes. His walking stick transformed into a black blade. He held the black blade and slashed down, unleashing a thousand-meter blade energy. Black light burst forth, sealing off the massive square.
“Profound Appearance Realm Mid Stage, two swords to slay him!” Xie Weilou said faintly.
He gripped the flying sword beside him, activated Heaven Mending Art, and his cultivation instantly advanced from Dao Repository Late Stage to Dao Repository Peak.
The Demon Hand directly merged, and a monstrous demonic aura erupted from him. Under the enhancement of the demonic aura, the flying sword became even more ferocious, vibrating continuously, its sword energy pervasive, and its killing intent profound.
“Slay!”
Xie Weilou’s eyes were ferocious, and his demonic might surged. His body transformed into a demonic film, instantly rushing forward, unleashing a sword strike that erupted into a thousand-meter-long Demonic Dao sword energy.
Boom!
The Demonic Dao sword energy and the thousand-meter blade energy clashed. The thousand-meter blade energy was blasted apart, and Xie Weilou arrived before Zhao Shan, his long sword slashing towards him.
Zhao Shan’s eyes were ferocious as he slashed out with the black blade in his hand.
Boom!
Blade and sword collided, and a violent pressure swept out. With the square as the center, destructive power surged in all directions, and the entire Zhao Family instantly turned to dust.
Crack!
A crisp sound then rang out. The black blade in Zhao Shan’s hand was severed, and the immense power directly sent him flying.
“Profound Manifestation, appear!”
After stabilizing his body, a solemn look appeared in Zhao Shan’s eyes. He discarded the broken black blade, formed a hand seal, and instantly, a giant old turtle shadow appeared behind him. This was his Profound Manifestation, the Millennium Mystic Turtle.
With the Profound Manifestation unleashed, his aura became even more profound, and his defense instantly skyrocketed.
“Oh! So it’s an old turtle! Let’s see how I smash your turtle shell.” Xie Weilou’s smile was cold and sharp.
Zhao Shan’s expression turned somewhat ugly upon hearing this. He discarded his walking stick, clasped his hands together, and a terrifying green light appeared on his body.
“Mystic Turtle Suppressing Sea Seal!”
Zhao Shan coldly shouted. Spiritual energy condensed into a massive Sea Suppressing Seal, directly sealing the heavens and earth, and imprisoning all directions. The great seal was heavy, carrying terrifying power. Once it blasted down, it would surely possess world-shaking might.
Boom!
The Sea Suppressing Seal blasted towards Xie Weilou. Its power was tyrannical, suppressing the sea and seizing spirits, incomparably fierce.
…
Xie Weilou closed his eyes, gripping his long sword, his demonic aura wildly spreading.
Just as the Sea Suppressing Seal was about to descend, he instantly opened his eyes.
“Shadow Kill!”
Xie Weilou’s figure suddenly vanished and reappeared beside Zhao Shan. The long sword was ferocious, its sword energy chilling, its cold light tearing through the sky, instantly grazing Zhao Shan’s neck.
…
Zhao Shan froze for a second, subconsciously touching his neck, a bewildered look appearing in his eyes.
Crack!
The Millennium Mystic Turtle Profound Manifestation behind him shattered. A streak of crimson blood appeared on his neck, and then his head flew high, blood gushing out, leaving him a headless corpse.
Profound Appearance Realm Mid Stage, fallen!
“I said two swords, no more, no less.”
Xie Weilou flicked his finger, and the flying sword returned to the Tianluo Umbrella. He flew down, and Zhao Shan’s head fell to the ground, rolling to his feet.
He lifted his foot and stomped on it.
Bang!
Zhao Shan’s head was stomped into a pulp, brains and blood splattering, staining the ground red.
Xie Weilou extended his hand, and the storage rings of Zhao Shan, Zhao Hai, and Zhao Heng flew into his grasp. He didn’t check them but instead flew in one direction—there was still a Profound Appearance Realm demon to deal with!
—
Just as Xie Weilou approached the Zhao Family’s secret location, five flags flew out, instantly forming a formation that surrounded Xie Weilou.
“Fellow Daoist, your strength is impressive to be able to kill Zhao Shan.”
An old man in a Daoist robe flew out. He held a crimson Eight Trigrams Furnace in one hand, and a terrifying demonic aura emanated from him, indicating a Profound Appearance Realm Late Stage cultivation.
This crimson furnace was covered in many mysterious runes and was of no low grade; it was a Supreme-Grade Spiritual Weapon.
Xie Weilou looked at the old man with an indifferent expression: “Mystic Crane True Person!”
Mystic Crane True Person smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist, don’t misunderstand. I only cooperate with the Zhao Family and have no conflict with you. Now that the Zhao Family is annihilated, if Fellow Daoist fancies anything, feel free to take it.”
Xie Weilou said indifferently, “With your Profound Appearance Realm Late Stage cultivation, to humble yourself to help the Zhao Family refine pills, it must be that the Zhao Family has something you want.”
Mystic Crane True Person narrowed his eyes: “The Zhao Family indeed has something I need. As long as Fellow Daoist doesn’t covet it, everything is negotiable. Otherwise…”
As a dignified demon clan powerhouse, he naturally wouldn’t help the Zhao Family for no reason. It was only because the Zhao Family had promised him an item. Once Zhao Shan successfully possessed the body, that item would be given to him.
That item had Restriction left by a Hengyuan Sect powerhouse. If he forcibly seized it, he feared he would be targeted by the Hengyuan Sect powerhouse.
Xie Weilou looked at the pill furnace in Mystic Crane True Person’s hand: “The pill furnace is good. How about you give it to me?”
Mystic Crane True Person raised an eyebrow upon hearing this: “Fellow Daoist, my patience is limited. You’d best not force my hand.”
“Force your hand? What are you? A mere Profound Appearance Realm demon. What difficulty is there in slaying you?”
Killing intent filled Xie Weilou’s eyes. He was determined to have this pill furnace. Whether the other party was willing to hand it over or not, he had to die.
“Courting death!”
Mystic Crane True Person’s tone turned cold, and he immediately formed a hand seal. The five flags rotated, instantly erupting with terrifying pressure, directly crushing towards Xie Weilou, intending to imprison and suppress him.
“Five broken flags, what can they do to me?”
Xie Weilou gripped the Tianluo Umbrella, and demonic aura erupted.
Swift!
Five flying swords flew out simultaneously, slashing towards the five flags.
Boom!
A roar sounded, and the five flags were instantly blasted apart, their power completely dissipated.
“Supreme-Grade Spiritual Weapon? Very good, I’ll take it!”
Mystic Crane True Person’s expression darkened. With a wave of his large hand, the Eight Trigrams Furnace aimed at Xie Weilou, and a burst of scorching flames spewed from the furnace.
Xie Weilou smiled coldly, extending his hand. As the flames rushed over, they were instantly controlled by him. With a flick of his finger, the flames transformed into a fire python, flutter towards Mystic Crane True Person.
Mystic Crane True Person immediately retreated a hundred meters, dodging the fire python. He said in a deep voice, “Fire Control Art! No wonder you set your sights on my pure yang eight trigrams furnace. So you are also an alchemist.”
With that, he quickly formed a hand seal.
Buzz!
The pure yang eight trigrams furnace vibrated, the runes on it flickering with the light of flames. A profound pressure permeated, instantly blasting towards Xie Weilou…
