Ling Tian Sword God

Chapter 1279: Chapter 1278: Yellow-robed Saint Monk

Boom boom boom boom!

Around the dark green pill, countless air energies exploded. The strong individuals, their faces flushed, made desperate moves, and furious True Qi collided together, with fierce battles ensuing!

Ah! Ah!

Screams rang out one after another, blood rain poured from the sky, and figures plummeted down, some landing on the stone platform while others fell into the abyss, disappearing without a trace.

”Could this really be the legendary Undying Medicine?”

The Spiritual Heart Saint looked somewhat surprised at the bloody scene in midair. Could this dark green pill really be the fabled Undying Medicine?

”What’s this talk of Undying Medicine? If such a thing truly existed in this world, how could Emperor Qinling have perished?”

Ling Chen couldn’t help but furrow his brows. The rumors of the Undying Medicine were indeed full of holes, essentially falling apart under scrutiny.

If Emperor Qinling really had refined the Undying Medicine, he would have achieved immortality long ago. Why would his body be buried here?

”Although that may be true, many people believe Emperor Qinling’s demise wasn’t due to the Undying Medicine. It happened before the creation of the Undying Medicine when Emperor Qinling surpassed his limits and succumbed to madness in his cultivation.”

Shen Bingxin said flatly, ”So Emperor Qinling never got a chance to consume the Undying Medicine, and its secrets were sealed within this Emperor’s Tomb.”

During their conversation, the competition among the myriad experts inside this space for the dark green pill had reached a fever pitch. In the recent skirmishes, over a hundred experts had been killed, and on the stone platform lay dozens of corpses, with rivers of blood flowing.

The crimson blood slowly flowed towards the throne area, silent and unnoticed.

Initially, only the majority of experts fought each other in midair. However, later, the people from various super sects also joined the fray. Whether this object was truly the Undying Medicine would only be revealed once someone obtained it.

Yet, on the Lingyue Island side, they were not in a hurry to act. Ling Chen didn’t even intend to make a move. His intuition told him that something about the atmosphere felt off.

This intense battle lasted for nearly half an hour until finally, someone broke through the encirclement: a yellow-browed old monk. This old monk, known as the Yellow-browed Saint Monk, was a Fourth Level of Saint Dao expert from the Cloud Mud Temple. He managed to snatch the dark green pill ahead of everyone else.

”Haha, the Undying Medicine ultimately belongs to this old monk!”

After securing the dark green pill, the Yellow-browed Saint Monk’s face showed a mad excitement. For someone facing their end, the Undying Medicine was undeniably a lifesaver. With immortality, what cultivation realm couldn’t he achieve?

”Die, bald donkey! Hand over the Undying Medicine!”

Numerous experts glared angrily, gazing directly at the Yellow-browed Saint Monk with fierce intent, shouting loudly.

However, Cloud Mud Temple was one of the Eight Great Super Sects, a formidable Buddhism faction with many experts. As soon as the Yellow-browed Saint Monk acquired the Undying Medicine, a group of Cloud Mud Temple’s experts immediately surrounded him, rallying around.

”Kill!”

At this moment, the experts in midair were already driven to madness. They cared nothing for the Yellow-browed Saint Monk’s identity; whoever acquired the Undying Medicine became the enemy of everyone!

”Deploy the Great Solar Thunder Sound Array!”

At the Yellow-browed Saint Monk’s sharp cry, Cloud Mud Temple’s experts set up a defensive array formation. Shaped like the sun, radiant thunder light swept across upon its completion, protecting the Cloud Mud Temple’s people within.

Bam bam bam!

Amazing air energies crashed onto the Great Solar Thunder Sound Array. The formation trembled violently. Even a strong sect like Cloud Mud Temple struggled under the combined assault of so many experts.

”These people have lost their senses.”

Ling Chen shook his head silently. Under normal circumstances, few would dare provoke a super sect like Cloud Mud Temple. But now, for the Undying Medicine, they recklessly took risks, showing no regard for angering Cloud Mud Temple just to seize the medicine!

”It seems wise that we chose not to join the struggle for the Undying Medicine. Even Cloud Mud Temple can’t withstand the joint attack of so many people.”

Shen Bingxin shook her head. While Cloud Mud Temple’s lineup was exceptionally strong, the other experts who entered this space weren’t ordinary, not to mention other super sects also participated. Cloud Mud Temple simply couldn’t hold, and neither could any single party.

Just as Shen Bingxin predicted, although the Great Solar Thunder Sound Array was formidable, it clearly couldn’t last long under the assault of so many experts. It flickered violently, its light dimmed, appearing dangerously weak.

Seeing the dire situation, an intense ferocity surged in the Yellow-browed Saint Monk’s eyes. He abruptly raised his hand and stuffed the dark green pill into his mouth, swallowing it!

”What?!”

Seeing the Yellow-browed Saint Monk swallow the dark green pill, the bloodshot-eyed experts were momentarily stunned, clearly caught off guard. They hadn’t expected the Yellow-browed Saint Monk to take such a drastic step by consuming the Undying Medicine directly!

”Haha, the Undying Medicine is now consumed by this seat. There’s no need for you all to waste your effort now!”

After swallowing the dark green pill, the Yellow-browed Saint Monk laughed heartily. The Undying Medicine wasn’t safe in his hands, so he simply swallowed it whole. Now, who could take it from him!

”Damn it!”

Figures like Dao Yi True Immortal, Princess Mingzhu, and Saint Qian Yan all wore ugly expressions. If they had known the old monk would be so bold in swallowing the Undying Medicine, they would have acted with all their might to seize it.

However, just as the Yellow-browed Saint Monk’s laughter resounded, his body suddenly underwent a drastic transformation. In his Dantian, a mass of sinister black energy spread quickly, reaching his entire body surface through the meridians at a visible speed.

”What’s happening?”

Seeing such bodily changes, the Yellow-browed Saint Monk himself was terrified. After swallowing the Undying Medicine, not only did his life force not increase, but it was rapidly draining away. The black energy, like venomous snakes, frantically spread!

”No!”

Fear gripped the Yellow-robed Saint Monk’s eyes. His roar had no effect as his body quickly turned black, decomposing into a skeleton in an extremely short period, leaving no flesh or blood!
