393: Sacrifice the sword with blood, and the sword spirit will possess you

Boom!

Explosions echoed from the ground, and flames shot into the sky as the Mysterious Person burst out from the inferno.

At this moment, his clothes were tattered, his body covered in blood, and his mask had fallen off, revealing the pale, somewhat disheveled face of a middle-aged man.

"A group of damnable ants, you all must die!"

The middle-aged man's eyes were fierce as he roared, then formed a hand seal, causing a Profound Manifestation of a demonic god to appear behind him, and his aura instantly surged.

"What a bother!"

Jing Qiu frowned. With their cultivation, being able to injure a Profound Manifestation Realm expert was already enough to be proud of.

As for wanting to kill a Profound Manifestation Realm expert, that was merely a fool's dream.

Bang!

Just then, the Yin Corpse Old Ancestor and the other two Profound Manifestation Realm Mysterious Persons were sent flying over a hundred meters by a single punch from Chu Yicai.

Chu Yicai glanced at Jing Qiu and the others: "Senior Sister Jing Qiu, you all retreat and leave him to me as well."

Continuing to fight like this held little meaning, so it was better to end it quickly!

"Alright!"

Jing Qiu did not hesitate and immediately retreated.

She was naturally well aware of Chu Yicai's methods. Chu Yicai was the eldest disciple of Rotten Wood Peak, a personal disciple of a Dragon Transformation Realm Peak expert, and possessed many treasures.

After everyone retreated.

Chu Yicai formed a hand seal, and the longsword on his back instantly unsheathed. This sword was extraordinary, engraved with peculiar patterns, with a divine dragon coiled around it, and two words on the blade: Dragon Slayer!

"This sword exceeds the scope of a Supreme-Grade Spiritual Weapon, but it hasn't reached the level of a Dao Weapon. It should be considered a Half-Step Dao Weapon."

Xie Weilou thought to himself.

"The Dragon Slayer Sword. This sword is the inherited divine weapon of Rotten Wood Peak. Only the Rotten Wood Peak Master can wield it. The Rotten Wood Peak Master giving this sword to Senior Brother Chu seems to indicate that he intends for him to become the next Rotten Wood Peak Master."

Shen Tu looked at the Dragon Slayer Sword, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

As the eldest disciple of Rotten Wood Peak, Chu Yicai possessed extraordinary talent and immense combat power, and indeed, he could become the Rotten Wood Peak Master in the future.

Jing Qiu softly said: "It wasn't the Peak Master who gave this sword to Senior Brother Chu, but rather this sword actively chose Senior Brother Chu."

Among the younger generation of the entire Rotten Wood Peak, only Chu Yicai had gained the recognition of the Dragon Slayer Sword.

Rip!

Chu Yicai grasped the Dragon Slayer Sword, instantly cutting his palm, and blood dyed the blade red.

"Sacrifice blood to the sword, sword soul possession!"

Chu Yicai quickly formed sword seals, and a profound power emanated from his body.

Buzz!

The next second, his eyes turned a dull gray, and the sword qi on his body surged a hundredfold, as if he had transformed into a peerless divine sword, filled with murderous intent and extreme ferocity.

Why did he carry a sword on his back instead of putting it in a storage ring?

Because he wanted to nourish the sword with his body. The Dragon Slayer Sword was of extremely high grade, and its sword soul was also terrifying. Only by nourishing the sword with his body could the sword soul perfectly integrate when it possessed him.

"Sword soul possession? Interesting!"

Xie Weilou smiled calmly.

This sword soul possession was somewhat similar to an old man's ghost possessing a body, and also somewhat similar to the Demon Hand controlling his body earlier.

As for its combat power, it should have reached the Profound Manifestation Realm Middle Stage.

"Kill!"

After the sword soul possessed him, Chu Yicai let out a hoarse sound.

His body transformed into a blur, instantly passing by the Yin Corpse Old Ancestor and the two Mysterious Persons, and the Dragon Slayer Sword in his hand was violently swung out.

Boom!

The bodies of the Yin Corpse Old Ancestor and the two Mysterious Persons were swept up by a gust of wind.

Then, sharp sword qi burst through their internal organs and skin from within their bodies. A series of explosions rang out, and the Yin Corpse Old Ancestor and the two Mysterious Persons were instantly killed, their souls utterly destroyed.

"......"

After Chu Yicai crushed the three Profound Manifestation Realm experts, he suddenly appeared above the head of the remaining Mysterious Person.

With a single sword strike, a thousand-meter sword qi erupted, instantly shattering the blood-colored formation and fiercely striking the Mysterious Person's head.

"No..."

The Mysterious Person let out a terrified cry. The sword qi had already locked onto him, and he couldn't dodge it, only able to watch helplessly as the thousand-meter sword qi approached.

In the blink of an eye, his Profound Manifestation was shattered by a single sword strike, and his body was also blasted apart by the terrifying sword qi, exploding into a sky full of blood mist.

Four Profound Manifestation Realm experts, annihilated!

Only a few storage rings remained.

Chu Yicai flew down, the sword qi on his body dissipated, and his eyes regained their luster. The Dragon Slayer Sword flew into its sheath, and he bent over, panting heavily, his face somewhat pale.

Even though he nourished the sword with his body daily, when the sword soul possessed him, the sword qi would tear his body and meridians, causing him significant side effects.

"Senior Brother Chu is truly too powerful! He was able to kill four Profound Manifestation Realm experts with just two swords. How terrifying!"

"After all, he's a top ten expert on the Saint Academy's Dragon-Tiger Rankings, how could he be weak?"

"......"

Shen Tu and the others stared at Chu Yicai with respectful expressions, already impressed by Chu Yicai's powerful combat strength.

With the trouble resolved, they also breathed a sigh of relief.

"The disciples of the Saint Academy are all monstrous talents!"

Xuan Bei and the others sighed inwardly. Compared to them, the young disciples of their Seven Great Sects were simply not worth mentioning.

Shen Tu looked at the corpses and blood on the plaza, then at Xie Weilou, and sighed: "Fan Shidi is also very terrifying!"

"......"

Jing Qiu was also staring at Xie Weilou, a peculiar look in her eyes.

One person slaughtering so many corpse puppets and corpse maggots wasn't that terrifying, but what was terrifying was being able to kill that Dao Repository Realm Peak Corpse Maggot Queen Mother. That was truly extraordinary.

Dao Repository Realm Initial Stage killing Dao Repository Realm Peak? This leap in combat power was somewhat frightening.

Lu Jin said calmly: "Fan Shidi is indeed very strong, but compared to Senior Brother Chu, he is still far behind."

"......"

Shen Tu raised an eyebrow. They were here on a mission together, was it really necessary to belittle someone?

Chu Yicai waved his hand, and several storage rings flew into his grasp. He erased the Restriction on them, checked the contents, then looked at the Three Sects: "There doesn't seem to be anything from the Three Sects in here."

After speaking, he tossed the storage rings to the people of the Three Sects.

The people of the Three Sects quickly checked them, and indeed found nothing of theirs.

"How can this be? Could it be that the true culprit hasn't appeared yet?"

Xuan Bei's expression was somewhat solemn. Three Profound Manifestation Realm evil cultivators had fallen, yet they weren't the true culprits?

Yun Lan was silent for a second, then said: "Perhaps I know who the true culprit is!"

Everyone instantly looked at Yun Lan, and said in a condensed voice: "Family Head Yun, please speak."

Yun Lan pointed at Yun Han not far away, and said with a sinister look in his eyes: "It should be him!"

"What?"

Everyone looked at Yun Han, somewhat stunned.

Yun Han looked at Yun Lan with a bewildered expression: "Father, when did I become a culprit?"

Yun Lan sneered: "I am not your father. When you left the Yun family yesterday, I asked you to bring the Profound Tortoise Armor I gave you, and you said you had already brought it... But I never gave you any Profound Tortoise Armor."

"......"

Everyone stared at Yun Han, their eyes filled with wariness.

"Heh heh! Old man, you even tested me beforehand, how cunning."

The stunned expression on Yun Han's face vanished, replaced by a cold smile.

The demonic qi on his body instantly permeated, transforming him into the appearance of another young man, emitting the aura of a Dao Repository Realm Peak expert.
