72: Chapter 72: Not a single drop was left!
"Boom!" A deafening explosion erupted on Qingyun Street!
Terrifying energy fluctuations spread wildly in all directions.
The entire street, paved with bluestone slabs, was instantly blown into ruins.
The houses on both sides of the street were like paper; they collapsed instantly amidst the flames!
The protective formation of Qingyun City was instantly activated.
Countless Restriction runes flashed wildly in the air, emitting a violent roaring sound.
A massive mushroom cloud shot into the sky, illuminating the entire Qingyun City as bright as day!
At the very center of the explosion, the figures of those six assassins had long since been blown into unrecognizable states!
Except for the leader in the black robe, the other five assassins had already melted into the explosion the moment the flames burst forth!
Truly turned into ashes!
Even the assassin leader at the Nascent Soul Stage was in a miserable state right now!
His cultivation was high, and because of the Flash Medicinal Pill, he was wary of the Medicinal Pill that Chen Yan had thrown.
The moment he saw those ten Medicinal Pills with intense Sword Qi fluctuations being thrown out, even without understanding what they were, he immediately raised his Protective Aura!
But the result was that his left arm was now nowhere to be found.
His right leg was severed at the knee, and blood was gushing out endlessly.
The black mask on his face was gone, revealing a face full of terror and covered in bloody scars!
"Cough, cough! How is this possible... How is this possible!"
He coughed violently, blood mixed with fragments of internal organs constantly gushing from his mouth.
He raised his hand and looked at Chen Yan in terror; even though this fact had already occurred, he still couldn't believe it!
A Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator! How could he possibly possess such a terrifying Divine Ability?
The power unleashed by those ten Medicinal Pills in an instant was no less than a Nascent Soul self-detonation!
Why? Why would someone at the Foundation Establishment Stage have such methods!
If he had known this earlier, he would never have given this brat any chance to attack.
At this moment, Chen Yan's face was deathly pale, and he stood swaying like a willow in the wind.
In order to exert the maximum power of the Alchemy Sword Technique, he had poured all the Spiritual Qi in his body into those ten Medicinal Pills!
The power was naturally extraordinary. However, it seemed there was still one fish that slipped through the net?
He raised his head with great effort, looking at the assassin leader, observing the scars on his face and the muttering in his mouth.
He couldn't help but grin, curling his lips into a mocking arc.
"Damn... Damn you!"
He let out a long breath and said coldly: "Didn't I tell you to get lost!"
"You!" The assassin leader shouted angrily, forcing himself to stand on one leg despite his injuries.
The calm and composed look on his face from earlier was long gone, and he looked at Chen Yan with pure malice: "A mere Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator actually managed to push me to this point!"
"In a moment, I will let you know what it means to wish for death!"
He took out several Medicinal Pills with one hand and tossed them all into his mouth in one go. He circulated his Spiritual Qi, digesting them with all his might!
As long as his injuries eased, he could kill that brat with a single palm! He would make him suffer through all the pain before dying!
But Chen Yan just glanced at him, looking indifferent. He just watched him recover from his injuries quietly, seemingly not in a hurry at all.
Little did he know, inside Chen Yan's body, the Sword Heart Tempering Method was finally showing its terrifying side at this moment!
Even though the Spiritual Qi in his Dantian was exhausted and there was not a shred of Spiritual Qi left in his Meridians, as the Sword Heart Tempering Method operated automatically...
Strands of Spiritual Qi in the air were constantly gathering toward him. Then they drilled into his skin, merged into his Meridians, and flowed toward his Dantian!
"Hum~" The lotus platform of the nine lotus treasure lamp trembled slightly. As the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi entered and exited, it was already converted into Sword Qi and Spiritual Qi, wandering through his Meridians!
"Hoo~" Feeling the power re-emerging in his body, Chen Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at the assassin leader, he couldn't help but grin: "It seems your Medicinal Pills cannot save your life!"
The leader was stunned upon hearing this: "What?"
But he saw Chen Yan raise his hand and point, shouting softly: "wait a moment!"
The leader was instantly shocked. Even though he didn't know what had happened, he subconsciously wanted to escape!
He frantically squeezed the remaining Spiritual Qi in his body, wanting to make himself move. But he had a broken leg and was severely injured, so his body's reaction speed could not keep up with his brain at all.
"Swish! Thwack!" A flash of red light instantly smashed onto his head! He became stiff all over instantly, unable to move.
He could only watch in terror as Chen Yan walked over, leaning on his sword. "Thinking of leaving now? It's too late!"
A cold light flashed in Chen Yan's eyes. He lifted his finger and pointed again, shouting once more: "wait a moment!"
"Thwack!" The brick on his face flew up and fell down again in the panicked eyes of the leader! The stiffness was extended!
Chen Yan slowly stood in front of him. In his terrified gaze, he raised the "senior spare my life" in his hand!
"You, I... I am the Bronze of the Shadow Kill Pavilion..."
In the limit between life and death, the black-robed leader forcibly broke through his body's Restrictions, just wanting to open his mouth to beg for mercy.
Chen Yan was expressionless. He poured all the bit of Spiritual Qi he had just recovered into the Flying Sword! He swung the sword down!
"Splurt!" A head soared into the sky! Blood gushed out, covering his face.
He calmly raised his hand to wipe away the bloodstains, looked at the head on the ground that died with eyes wide open, and unleashed an "Atomic Breath"!
"Ptui! Shadow Kill Pavilion? Screw you!"
"Didn't I tell you to get lost?" "You delayed me from finding my Revered Master, you insisted on seeking death yourselves!"
But the moment he finished speaking, a strong wave of dizziness suddenly struck. Chen Yan's body swayed twice, and his legs went soft, causing him to collapse directly to the ground.
First, there was the full-powered ten-shot Alchemy Sword Technique, and now he had swung his sword to kill a Nascent Soul. At this moment, there really wasn't a drop left inside him!
He lay in the mess of ruins, looking at the smoke gradually dissipating in the night sky. A bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"System... You are really too useless, aren't you? Just a random Nascent Soul Stage, and I almost died; what use are you?"
Feeling the exhaustion constantly surging from within his body, Chen Yan's eyelids felt heavy, but he forced himself to stay awake, ranting madly in his heart.
"If another small fry comes now, won't I just be waiting to die?" "The ten-consecutive-draw is also a trap; can't you just make me invincible directly..."
Outside Qingyun City. A beautiful figure was fighting against three black shadows in front.
As Sword Qi crisscrossed, she was always able to leave a bloody wound on those three people!
"Hall Revered Master, you didn't say the ghost soul token was in the hands of Leng Qingshuang!" While fighting, one of them suddenly spoke, his tone filled with indescribable grievance.
The Master of Netherworld Hall raised his hand to block a sword attack, his face bitter: "I just found out about it too!"
"Swish!" After another wound was added to the body of another figure, he couldn't help but lose his composure: "What do we do now? We can't beat this woman!"
Three Mahayana Stage experts couldn't beat one! Sword Venerable Shuanghua is truly terrifying!
Just as Leng Qingshuang intended to use her full strength to slay these people from the Netherworld Hall, a mushroom cloud suddenly rose into the sky from within Qingyun City.
Leng Qingshuang's heart trembled violently, and the Sword Qi in her hand became somewhat unstable. That is... the Alchemy Sword Technique of the Rebellious Disciple?!
Not good! Chen Yan is in danger! Leng Qingshuang instantly sobered up.
She had actually been blinded by hatred and left the Rebellious Disciple alone in the city! Under those circumstances just now, how could the area around the inn possibly be safe?
"Get lost!" She shouted angrily, forcing back the attacks of the three people with one move.
Then, in the surprised gazes of the three old ghosts from the Netherworld Hall, she flew away, turning into a beam of sword light and rushing straight back to Qingyun City!
"Rebellious Disciple, you must not have an accident!"
