Chapter 342: Chapter 339: Slaughter

He immediately retracted his smile.

When you think about it in detail, there are too many aspects to ponder.

Why did the Netherworld Secret Guards arrive so quickly?

The actions of the Phoenix Camp were secretive; even the Da Jing Dynasty knew very little, thinking it was just a training exercise.

How could the Da Lie Dynasty be so sure it was the Phoenix Camp’s doing? Shouldn’t it take some time?

Why were they immediately certain it was my doing?

Was it information from Da Meng?

Or did they receive information from other channels?

How many spies does the Da Lie Dynasty have in Yujing City? How high is the level of their information?

And then there are the Netherworld Secret Guards.

Even if the Da Lie Emperor knew the information and sent the Netherworld Secret Guards, it couldn’t have been this quick.

Could these Netherworld Secret Guards have their own Heavenly Dragon Divine Horses?

The more likely scenario is that these Netherworld Secret Guards were already in Yujing City and started moving upon receiving orders.

He closed his eyes and began to ponder.

Moments later, he recalled a vague sense of unease that only emerged today.

That means these Netherworld Secret Guards started targeting him today.

They could actually elude my Super Sense, truly impressive.

No wonder even the Wuyou Sect is so wary.

Through his Insight, he saw these Netherworld Secret Guards wearing gray robes, looking much like the Heavenly Hidden Sect.

Not a trace of their aura leaked out, even engaging with four Great Grandmasters without any aura leakage.

They seemed like eight people without any martial arts skills, yet they kept pace with four Great Grandmasters in combat.

Their movements seemed light and lacking strength.

Yet they were astonishingly fast, their palms meeting those of the Great Grandmasters on equal terms.

Chu Zhiyuan furrowed his brow.

He looked up at the sky.

There were eight beams of light in the sky.

The beams enveloped the eight Netherworld Secret Guards, continuously infusing them with light.

This light was as gentle as moonlight, yet enabled the eight Netherworld Secret Guards to handle everything with ease.

The spiritual energy of the Great Grandmasters seemed ineffective against the eight Netherworld Secret Guards.

Mental power, capable of distorting facial features, lost its effectiveness against this light.

Powerful forces dissipated when they struck these guards, dissolved by the gentle light.

Though the light was soft, its power was astonishing, capable of withstanding the force of a Great Grandmaster.

Chu Zhiyuan stroked his chin.

These Netherworld Secret Guards were different from the Evil Sect’s experts.

Even though Evil Sect experts borrowed Outer Heaven Powers, they wouldn’t summon them unless critical.

They mostly used their own cultivated power, although tainted, capable of influencing mind and habits.

But these Netherworld Secret Guards entirely used Outer Heaven Power, appearing to have no power of their own.

Normally, they were ordinary, untrained people.

Once activated, they became Netherworld Secret Guards.

Truly an elusive threat.

If not for that string of beads, I wouldn’t have discovered their presence at all.

No matter how strong my Super Sense is, it only targets threatening and trained individuals; how could it guard against these eight ordinary people?

He pondered for a moment.

Then decided to take action.

The four Great Grandmasters seemed very cautious, indicating these Netherworld Secret Guards might have powerful trump cards threatening even Great Grandmasters’ lives.

Two streaks shot from his sleeve.

Two ephemeral shadows flickered from his cuffs, and in a flash, they were in mid-air, then two hundred meters away, at the brows of two gray-robed middled-aged men.

The synthesis of the Glazed Blade Scripture, Sword Control Technique, and Heart Inquiry Saber Skill was more powerful than ever before.

This time, he infused it with the power of the Fearless Realm.

He concluded that to counteract Outer Heaven Power, one must fight power with power.

The Glazed Glass Blade appeared silently, instantly striking the brows of the two gray-robed middle-aged men.

Their brows suddenly shone brightly, instantly flying skyward.

The flying knife was, however, blocked in place.

Chu Zhiyuan’s face turned pale as all his spiritual power was instantly consumed.

His vision darkened.

If not for his prior preparation, with the Heavenly Yuan Technique already operating to swiftly replenish spiritual power, he would have fainted on the spot.

The two knives plummeting downward suddenly reappeared, at the brow of the two airborne gray-robed men.

”Bang!”

Both their brows shone brightly again, flying upward once more.

The Great Grandmaster confronting them was Grandmaster Shi, who flashed behind them.

Both palms simultaneously struck gently on their backs.

They spat out a spray of blood with fragments.

The knives hovering in mid-air trembled with an increasing power.

Grandmaster Shi’s timing was perfect to an exquisite degree.

It was on such a subtle level that one could witness the sharp sense and power of a Great Grandmaster.

He struck right at the interval after the light blocked the flying knives.

The two beams of light hanging from the sky dimmed when blocking the flying knives, then brightened again, at which point the two Netherworld Secret Guards were already palm-struck.

After spraying blood clots mid-air, their eyes suddenly blazed brightly.

Like tangible lightning shooting from their eyes, their speed instantly increased, rushing towards Grandmaster Shi.

”Hiss! Hiss!”

The flying knives appeared at the back of their heads, and the light flared brightly again.

The flying knives were blocked once more.

Once again, Chu Zhiyuan’s vision darkened, momentarily drained of spiritual power.

The Heavenly Yuan Technique drew down a constant stream of nourishment, replenishing him instantly.

”Bang! Bang!”

Two dull thuds, and Grandmaster Shi seized the optimal moment once more, sending the two Netherworld Secret Guards flying again.

This time they were struck on their foreheads.

They sprayed blood arrows in the air, then their heads drooped, ”Bang! Bang!” hitting the ground, motionless and silent.

Chu Zhiyuan exhaled in relief.

The beams of light descended from the sky reluctantly retracted, slowly disappearing.

Chu Zhiyuan exhaled in relief.

Grandmaster Shi flashed over to Chu Zhiyuan, cupping his fists respectfully.

Chu Zhiyuan apologetically said, ”Mr. Shi, I...”

”If not for your help, it wouldn’t have been so easy to take them down.” Grandmaster Shi waved his hand. ”Their power is very strange, it seems we must also use weapons.”

Great Grandmasters rarely use weapons because it’s unnecessary.

At the Great Grandmaster Realm, spiritual energy is the best weapon.

Not to mention its purity surpasses Gang Qi, more importantly, others simply cannot hit oneself, while one can strike others with a single palm strike.

So why use a weapon, when carrying one is a burden, not elegant enough?

Thus, Great Grandmasters rarely carry weapons.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and nodded.

The Heart Inquiry Saber Skill was originally comparable to a Great Grandmaster’s strike, the Sword Control Technique enhancing its power, the Glazed Blade Scripture adding another layer.

Even a Great Grandmaster with a weapon might not surpass my flying knives.

Despite this, he couldn’t handle these Netherworld Secret Guards alone.

It indicates their difficulty level.

”Let’s go, take care of the rest,” Grandmaster Shi said solemnly.

Chu Zhiyuan retracted his flying knives, reaching out to touch a pine tree, invoking the Spirit Summoning Talisman.

Mere moments later, his complexion returned to normal.

Grandmaster Shi and Grandmaster Mo coordinated to press the other two Netherworld Secret Guards back step by step.

But they couldn’t break them down for a long time.

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

Finally confirming the correctness of fighting power with power, proving the most effective against Outer Heaven Power is the Fearless Realm’s strength.

Great Grandmaster’s power was comparatively less effective.

Two flying knives appeared at the brows of those two Netherworld Secret Guards, blocked by light suddenly brightening at their foreheads.

The flying knives hovered in the air.

The two Secret Guards flew away.

”Bang! Bang!”

The brows of the two Secret Guards were simultaneously struck by Grandmasters Shi and Mo.

The two Secret Guards fell helplessly to the ground, motionless and already dead.

”Hiss Hiss!”

”Bang Bang!”

”Hiss! Hiss!”

”Bang! Bang!”

...

Chu Zhiyuan and the four Great Grandmasters stood in the depths of the forest, with eight corpses lined up at their feet.

The four Great Grandmasters stood behind Chu Zhiyuan, staring gravely at the eight corpses.

At this moment, these eight corpses were undergoing strange transformations, slowly changing.
