Chapter 836: Chapter 832: Prelude

Chu Zhiyuan released his hands, shaking his head, ”You have already died once.”

Fu Zheng looked toward the distance, not convinced, a few trees had already exploded and completely disappeared.

From above the forest, there was a deep pit.

Twelve middle-aged men in gray robes glared coldly in this direction, their gaze lingering on Chu Zhiyuan.

Fu Zheng said, ”Your Highness, at most we are injured, we won’t die, right?”

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head, ”The power of this move is strong, I’m afraid you can’t escape death.”

He looked at Li Miaotan, ”Is this move meant to deal with you?”

Li Miaotan’s jade face was already clouded, she slowly nodded, ”This is the move!”

She said to Fu Zheng and Li Yuzhen, ”Indeed, you cannot withstand this move.”

Chu Zhiyuan asked, ”Such a vicious move, was it here before or is it new?”

His gaze went toward Li Yuzhen.

Li Yuzhen shook her head, ”Never seen it before, ... nor heard of it.”

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”Perhaps those who’ve seen it are already dead.”

Li Miaotan agreed, ”It’s very likely.”

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”First hide the Qi, then use this move, with these two moves, the Demon Clan has become troublesome.”

The actual combat power, one hundred or even ten thousand Transformation Realm experts can’t match one Venerable.

Of course, ten thousand Transformation Realm experts can’t produce a single Venerable.

In the world, how numerous are Transformation Realm experts.

Transformation Realm experts can use these two moves to kill Venerables, to use Transformation Realm Death Soldiers to exchange for Venerables.

This is not good news.

Li Miaotan, being icy smart, had thought of this, hearing Chu Zhiyuan mention it, shook her head, ”Very troublesome, ... but there’s no good solution.”

The Demon Clan and the Demon Clan can run rampant in the Human World, but human experts rarely venture to the Demon Realm and Demon World.

The Demon Clan and Demon Clan have naturally good physiques, making cultivation easier to start, their number of Transformation Realm experts is countless.

It’s not so easy for humans to cultivate to the Transformation Realm, and human numbers can’t compare to the Demon Clan and Demon Clan.

More crucial is that the Demon Clan and Demon Clan’s attitude toward death is completely different, they are not afraid to die.

Humans are more afraid of death, thus cannot afford to lose so many experts.

Fighting in the Outer Realm Battlefield is already the limit.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”This time is a good opportunity to weaken the Demon Clan!”

Li Miaotan lightly frowned, ”Using husband as bait?”

”How about it?”

”Too dangerous.”

”The higher the reward, the greater the risk, that’s how the world works.” Chu Zhiyuan said, ”I’m least afraid of assassination.”

Li Miaotan said, ”If they send top experts to assassinate, it’s still extremely dangerous.”

Chu Zhiyuan laughed and said, ”At worst, one death, to die for weakening the Demon Clan is a fortune.”

”Husband!” Li Miaotan displeased, chided, ”Don’t speak such unlucky words!”

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”This is my idea, my lady, discuss with the Emperor, see how it can be done.”

Li Miaotan held her jade face silently.

She still felt it was too risky, no need to go all out.

Dealing with the Demon Clan wasn’t his duty alone, but a matter for the entire world.

It shouldn’t be for him alone to take such risks.

While they were speaking, the twelve gray-robed middle-aged men on the opposite side finally determined their identities.

They exchanged glances, then looked toward the one with vertical pupils among them.

This middle-aged man with vertical pupils had a tall and thin figure, pale skin, a high nose, and eyes with vertical pupils.

His gaze brought instantaneous cold indifference, making the surroundings tingle.

He kept his vertical pupils on Chu Zhiyuan, occasionally glancing at Li Miaotan.

The dialogue between Li Miaotan and Chu Zhiyuan was heard clearly, yet they didn’t attack rashly.

If it hadn’t been for Chu Zhiyuan’s earlier move, they would have already charged.

Chu Zhiyuan’s move was too quick, exceeding their reaction, making them extremely wary.

They’ve been weighing this.

The Demon Clan experts aren’t numberless, fearless, doesn’t mean reckless death.

Death means a loss to the Demon Clan’s power, avoid loss if possible.

They decided if attacking together could destroy Chu Zhiyuan.

Especially Chu Zhiyuan’s astonishing Qinggong.

But Chu Zhiyuan wasn’t without weaknesses, the experts around him were his weak points, his constraints and burdens.

Thinking of this, his vertical pupils suddenly rounded, and he said in a deep voice, ”Ignore the couple, kill the others!”

”Yes!”

Twelve gray shadows rushed forward.

Chu Zhiyuan flashed and disappeared from his original spot, reappearing behind the middle-aged man with vertical pupils, a palm already pressed on his back.

The Heavenly Dragon Divine Palm struck his back.

”Boom!” Suddenly, several bursts of blood light exploded from the chest of the middle-aged man with vertical pupils.

The palm force of the Heavenly Dragon Divine Palm was pure and solid, penetrating his body like a longsword.

Chu Zhiyuan then disappeared and reappeared behind another middle-aged man in a gray robe, striking out again.

The Heavenly Repairing Pill strengthened his connection with heaven and earth, allowing him to borrow the Earth Power.

This made him thirty percent faster than before, already beyond the range of visual capture.

Faced with such speed, even the masters of the Demon Clan with good Qinggong were far inferior.

”Bang bang bang bang...”

Dull sounds echoed, and four masses of red mist suddenly swept towards him.

He flickered and shuttled through the red mist, in the blink of an eye killing four more middle-aged men in gray robes.

In the end, only two middle-aged men in gray robes managed to charge close to Li Miaotan and the others.

Li Miaotan and the others drifted back, avoiding the pounce of the two middle-aged men in gray robes.

Chu Zhiyuan once again flashed behind them.

They howled and turned around but were suddenly stunned, as several bursts of blood flowers exploded from their chests, and they slowly fell to the ground.

Chu Zhiyuan flickered and appeared beside Li Miaotan.

Li Miaotan and the others stopped, standing on the treetops, looking down at the heap of Demon Clan corpses that had fallen to the ground.

They were rapidly reverting to their ancestral form.

Chu Zhiyuan stood on the treetop, calmly watching these corpses, carefully experiencing the sensation of the twelve Demon Crystals merging into himself.

The twelve Demon Crystals transformed into twelve streams of energy, circulating within his body, nourishing his flesh, and strengthening his body.

At the same time, his spirit became vigorous.

This vigor gave him a strong impulse, an urge to punch the sky to pieces.

This was a strong reaction to the sudden increase in power.

The Heavenly Heart Jade Marrow in his chest suddenly cooled, emitting strands of Qing Qi.

This Qing Qi entered his mind, swirling unceasingly.

Suddenly, some strange energy appeared in his mind; before the Qing Qi appeared, they were not visible, but now with the presence of Qing Qi, they emerged, then collided and extinguished each other.

Like a basin of cold water poured down on him, he instantly sobered up.

The strong impulse and excitement dissipated immediately, returning to a state of calm like still water.

He took a deep breath.

As expected, the Demon Crystals contained impurities, much like the impurities within Soul Light.

These impurities are different from those purified by the Haoyang Demon-suppressing Mirror.

They are not negative thoughts and emotions within the soul; instead, they are a kind of positive emotion and thought.

Strong, uplifting, and aspirational.

If there is only one such thought and emotion, it is beneficial.

But if there are many, a dozen or so, it becomes a burden.

This will occupy one’s original emotions and thoughts, creating a slight disharmony.

The Heavenly Heart Jade Marrow and Green Nether Spirit Dew solve this problem.

The Haoyang Demon-suppressing Mirror expels yin, and the Heavenly Heart Jade Marrow and Green Nether Spirit Dew expel yin.

Thus, one’s soul becomes pure and flawless, untainted by a trace.

Li Miaotan withdrew her gaze and exclaimed, ”In front of my husband, they are vulnerable.”

She knew Chu Zhiyuan’s Qinggong was formidable, but she hadn’t expected it to be this powerful.

The expressions of the four City Guard Venerables were solemn, their hearts unable to contain their shock.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”It’s also due to your distraction; if they had immediately resorted to Jade and Stone Burning, it wouldn’t have been so easy to deal with.”

Li Miaotan laughed lightly, ”We didn’t even have time to make a move.”

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”There will be a chance, let’s continue; there are still many Demon Clan experts.”

”Your Highness,” Fu Zheng said, ”let us go first this time!”

Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

Li Yuzhen frowned, ”Sister Fu, if we encounter that move again next time, we still won’t be able to handle it.”

”Our Qinggong is lacking.” Fu Zheng was helpless.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”It’s not just about Qinggong; it’s about feeling and observation. There are signs before they use Jade and Stone Burning; observe and find them next time.”

”Yes!” Fu Zheng’s spirit rose.

A quarter of an hour later, they crossed a mountain and encountered a group of Demon Clan experts in the valley woods once again.

After they eliminated these fourteen Demon Clan experts, they moved about ten miles outside the South City Gate and encountered another sixteen Demon Clan experts.

Then they easily annihilated them once again.

Fu Zheng and Li Yuzhen already discovered the signs before they used Jade and Stone Burning.

When they encountered the fourth group of Demon Clan experts, they handled it with ease, without needing Chu Zhiyuan to rescue them, and avoided Jade and Stone Burning.

Li Miaotan’s face grew increasingly dark.

With so many Demon Clan experts approaching, what on earth is Fengtian Palace doing?
