148: Go straight to Sizhou, Vajra Indestructible Magic
After his Breakthrough to the Great Grandmaster realm, Chu Jiang did not linger in the Demon Suppression Division. Without bringing anyone else, just one man and one ape, he headed straight for Si Province.
Amidst the sea of clouds, Chu Jiang's speed reached the extreme.
The air produced piercing sonic booms; one breath covered a hundred meters, then two hundred, then three hundred, until he broke the sound barrier.
In the end, there was only the sound of whistling, roaring amidst the clouds and mist.
...
Si Province, outside the Qianjue Mountain Range.
Over a hundred Demon Suppression Guards were riding Night-Chasing Horses, galloping at full speed. The Night-Chasing Horse was a horse breed native to Si Province.
They could travel at night as if it were day, and their speed exceeded that of similar-level horse breeds by half.
The person in the lead was about eighty years old, with a resolute face and deep-set features, as if carved by a knife or axe, with distinct, sharp angles.
His silver hair reached his shoulders and back; it was neither tied nor bound, fluttering naturally with the wind, appearing unrestrained and free.
His mount was a Fire Dragon Colt, its mane as bright red as raging flames; as it ran, the mane fluttered in the wind, resembling rolling flames.
"Commander Xing, this Qianjue Mountain Range spans eight hundred miles. I'm afraid we won't be able to find Commander Zuo and the others anytime soon." Zhang Tie looked toward the figure in the lead, then glanced at the vast Qianjue Mountain Range.
Ever since receiving the secret letter, the Pacification Envoy of Si Province had dispatched Commander Xing and him to rescue their colleagues from the Yunzhou Demon Suppression Division.
Commander Xing was the strongest commander in the Si Province Demon Suppression Division, having broken through to the Peak Great Grandmaster realm twenty years ago.
And he himself was not weak, essentially nearing the Peak Great Grandmaster realm.
The Demon Suppression Guards behind them were all elites, all at the Vajra Realm.
To rescue Commander Zuo, the Si Province Demon Suppression Division had spared no effort; after all, the two branches had always been on good terms.
They had cooperated many times.
If the Si Province Demon Suppression Guards were in danger, the Yunzhou Demon Suppression Division would certainly not stand idly by.
"No matter. I obtained a Wind-Trace Beast from Lord Pacification Envoy. I believe we will have results soon!"
"The demons are surrounding without killing; their purpose is to lure the experts from Si Province and Yunzhou into their encirclement!"
"We haven't entered the fray yet; Commander Zuo and the others will not be in immediate danger of losing their lives!"
Commander Xing said indifferently, seeing the situation very clearly.
However.
Knowing there are tigers in the mountain, yet heading toward the tiger's mountain.
When have the Demon Suppression Guards not been like this? They are always licking blood from the edge of a blade, and what they are competing with is the foundation of both sides.
If they retreated whenever there was danger, they would not be Demon Suppression Guards.
The Demon Suppression Division would also be unable to become the greatest violent institution in the hands of the Great Chu Dynasty, suppressing demons and monitoring the Jianghu.
"A Wind-Trace Beast? I didn't expect Lord Pacification Envoy to actually give this to you. This is his precious treasure!" Zhang Tie flashed a look of surprise.
The Wind-Trace Beast was a strange beast capable of tracking scents. Where the wind passes, traces are left; it could use the wind to find people.
Even if trapped in a Formation, it could detect the other party's scent. It could track from a thousand miles away, which was extremely rare.
"Let's go!"
Commander Xing's silver hair fluttered, and his Fire Dragon Colt immediately began to accelerate. The Demon Suppression Guards behind him followed one after another.
...
Qianjue Mountain Range, ancient trees towering to the sky.
Two bloody figures were fleeing, using the dense forest to avoid being tracked.
It was none other than Commander Zuo and Shen Commander.
"Commander Zuo, stop worrying about me. I am already a dying man; you won't be able to get out if you carry me!" Blood wouldn't stop overflowing from Shen Commander's mouth as he tried to persuade Commander Zuo to leave.
"Shen Tian, shut your mouth!"
"Even if I die today, I will die before you!"
Commander Zuo roared, the Qi on his body chaotic, sometimes strong, sometimes low; his condition was extremely poor.
"Old friend, stop talking. I will definitely get you out today!" Commander Zuo's tone dropped a few notches; he could feel that Shen Commander's life force was extremely weak.
After thousands of miles of pursuit, both were severely injured, their lives hanging by a thread.
"Zuo Qiuming, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave this Qianjue Mountain Range today. The scenery here is not bad; it's a good burial place."
Shen Tian understood very well that this group could have finished them off long ago, but they didn't; instead, they kept hunting them.
Perhaps.
They had become bait, being used by the person behind the scenes to lure a big fish.
The person laying the plan must have immense strength, with the ability to suppress everything.
"It's a pity, I won't get to witness Chu Jiang's rise before I die. It's still a bit of a shame."
"In a few years, maybe this kid will be at the same level as Lord Zhenfu, but we won't be able to see it!"
And there's that girl Fu Yunxuan. With her under Chu Jiang, he had nothing to worry about; breaking through to the Grandmaster realm was only a matter of time.
"Shen Tian, if you keep talking, believe it or not, I'll beat you up!" Commander Zuo said irritably. If this guy said a few more words, he would really kick the bucket.
"What deep brotherhood. Do you want this commander to see you off?"
Just at this moment.
Liu Sanlang arrived with a group of demons, launching an ambush.
"Liu Sanlang, you son of a bitch, you don't deserve to call yourself a commander; don't insult the name of the Demon Suppression Guards!" Commander Zuo looked coldly at Liu Sanlang and mocked him.
Liu, Commander said disdainfully: "This commander wants to say it; what can you do to me?" He smiled eerily, as if this psychological torment brought him great pleasure.
Fairy Ni Chang's beautiful face was filled with sneers: "Liu, Commander, don't waste your breath on him. Let's see if he can block another strike from my sword!"
"Don't beat him to death!" Liu, Commander reminded. Originally, they should have sent the two of them on their way, but he had suddenly received a notification.
They couldn't kill them yet; they needed to use them to attract the Demon Suppression Guards to come to the rescue, and then wipe them all out in one go.
To deal a heavy blow to the Demon Suppression Division.
"I have my own judgment!"
Fairy Ni Chang said coldly.
After speaking.
A majestic Sword Intent appeared among the towering trees, and hundreds of white rainbow Sword Qi headed straight for Commander Zuo and his companion.
Boom!
Golden light suddenly erupted from Commander Zuo's body; his Physical Body looked like it was cast from glazed gold, and the golden tide instantly swept across all directions.
The Sword Qi was deflected away completely.
"Damn it, you can't use this skill again!"
Seeing this scene, Shen Commander's face changed drastically. He didn't know when Commander Zuo had secretly cultivated the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill.
This external martial art was basically not cultivated by anyone in the Demon Suppression Division, let alone a Genius like Commander Zuo.
Although this skill would greatly increase one's defense, it would consume Lifespan. During the escape, Commander Zuo had already spared no cost and used it over a dozen times.
His Lifespan was already at rock bottom; using it forcibly again was no different from gambling with his last bit of life.
Fairy Ni Chang's expression remained unchanged. She had heard of this divine skill, but seeing it for real, she was still surprised.
Commander Zuo had only just stepped into the Early Stage of the Peak Great Grandmaster realm, and his Qi was unstable, yet relying on this external martial art, he could actually withstand her attack as a Late Stage Peak Great Grandmaster.
However, although this external martial art was strong, it consumed Lifespan.
It seemed this was the last time he would use the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill.
"Liu Sanlang, go to hell!" Commander Zuo roared. Under the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill, he briefly possessed the ability to contend with a Late Stage Peak Great Grandmaster.
Since death was inevitable.
Then kill!
He chose not to attack Fairy Ni Chang, but Liu Sanlang.
His hatred for Liu Sanlang far exceeded that for the people of Myriad Sound Valley; he was the person he hated most—betraying the Demon Suppression Division and causing the deaths of those five hundred Demon Suppression Guards!
He must kill him!
If he could finish him off before dying, it would count as removing a scourge for the Yunzhou Demon Suppression Division.
"Fairy Ni Chang!"
Liu Sanlang retreated frantically, then shouted her name.
"Commander Zuo, why struggle in vain!"
Fairy Ni Chang's sword light fell instantly, like a fairy scattering flowers, sealing all of Commander Zuo's retreat paths.
Suddenly.
With a boom.
"Bold demoness, how dare you plot to harm a commander of the Demon Suppression Division? You deserve to be executed for your crimes!"
The person had not arrived.
The blade arrived first.
