Chapter 75: The Inner Domain and the Wasteland, Crush Their Bones and Scatter Their Ashes

Two threads of vampire silk, both faster and more powerful than the previous one, could easily penetrate a steel plate.

At this moment, Meng Chong felt a strong sense of danger welling up in his heart.

With a low growl, his muscles bulged, and with a thud, his body became like a golden bell, even emitting a faint golden light.

He held his fists in front of his chest, protecting his vital points.

Puff!

The vampire silk instantly pierced into his fist, and a cold aura spread from his fist to his arm, entering his body.

Boom!

The blood and qi within his body instantly became violent, surging throughout his body. The bottleneck was broken, and he surpassed the limits of copper bones!

However, the danger did not disappear.

Even if he were to achieve the Golden Bones soon, he would still not be a match for the opponent.

Pain came from his fist, and the cold aura seemed to freeze it.

With another low growl, the storm of qi and blood in his body surged to his fist.

Puff!

He punched out, breaking the vampire silk that had pierced into his fist.

Xue Wuxin was shocked. What kind of body is this?

It actually blocked my vampire silk?

"I don't believe it! You can't block this one!"

Xue Wuxin took him seriously.

I am a master, and although I didn't use much force, the two attacks just now would easily penetrate a third-rank warrior in the Inner Domain.

Even a master, relying solely on their body, couldn't block it.

But this bald youth, although not as strong as a third-rank warrior, has an incredibly sturdy body!

Sss!

Xue Wuxin flicked his finger, and a slightly thicker thread of vampire silk shot out, aiming directly for Meng Chong's heart.

This time, he truly used the strength of a master.

"I can't block it!"

Meng Chong was horrified. No matter what, he couldn't block this attack.

He hadn't even entered the martial path, and no matter how strong the Great Sun Golden Bell Shield was, it couldn't block the attack of a master, let alone a suspected innate realm warrior.

Even if he cultivated Golden Bones or even Vajra Glass Bones, he couldn't block it.

The gap in realms was too great!

The threat of death loomed, and Meng Chong was powerless. He was too weak against Xue Wuxin!

Boom!

At the critical moment, a golden dragon suddenly descended from the sky, instantly destroying the vampire silk. The golden dragon coiled around Xue Wuxin, pulling him down from the air and restraining him.

Meng Chong was overjoyed, feeling as if he had survived a disaster.

"Master!"

Li Xuan had returned from Donghe County, planning to have Shi Er use the Heavenly Mother Sect's intelligence to investigate the capital's movements.

However, upon returning to Yunshan County, he sensed a cold aura.

A martial artist!

And right in his courtyard!

He was startled. Where did this martial artist come from?

He immediately teleported to the small courtyard.

Just in time to see Meng Chong in danger. He immediately acted, saving Meng Chong and restraining Xue Wuxin in mid-air.

"Fortunately, I was quick. Otherwise, my second disciple would be gone!"

Li Xuan felt relieved.

He was about to see his second disciple enter the martial path. If he were killed, it would be a huge loss.

Where could he find another suitable disciple to cultivate the Great Sun Golden Bell Shield?

Thinking of this, he was furious.

He looked at the restrained Xue Wuxin, his gaze darkening.

This was a martial artist, and a strong one.

He seemed to be injured.

Moreover, the energy he cultivated was not qi and blood but a sinister force with a bloody tinge, clearly not a good person.

"True qi?"

Li Xuan frowned slightly.

"Not quite. It's similar to true qi, but the quality is inferior."

The "true qi" in the opponent's body was far less pure than his innate true qi, and its power and quality were much lower.

"Master, who is he? He tried to kill me as soon as he arrived. Is he sent by Emperor Wu?"

Meng Chong, having survived the ordeal, looked at Xue Wuxin with anger.

Li Xuan sat down, a mysterious aura emanating from him, making him seem even more enigmatic.

"How are your injuries?"

Li Xuan glanced at the wound on Meng Chong's fist, where a cold aura lingered.

However, it wasn't serious, just a minor injury.

With Meng Chong's current recovery ability, he would fully recover in two to three days.

Moreover, the cold aura stimulated his qi and blood, breaking through the bottleneck and surpassing the limits of copper bones, entering the stage of refining Golden Bones.

Perhaps it was a blessing in disguise?

Xue Wuxin lay on the ground, utterly shocked.

A golden dragon coiled around him, its terrifying pressure pinning him down, making him immobile.

His inner qi was also suppressed, on the verge of collapse.

"Grandmaster? How can there be a grandmaster in the Wasteland?"

"No! That's not right. This terrifying aura is something even a grandmaster might not possess."

"Who is this person? He seems unfathomable!"

Xue Wuxin's heart sank.

In the Wasteland, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth had vanished, and the spiritual energy was violent. Without the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, it was impossible to guide spiritual energy into the body.

The human body could not refine or withstand violent spiritual energy.

Therefore, martial artists could not exist.

That's why he fled to the Wasteland when he was pursued in the Inner Domain.

But he never expected such a powerful person to exist in the Wasteland!

"Is this their master?"

The mysterious powerful person used a golden dragon, unstoppable, and the palm technique was the same as the youth's. This person must be the youth's master.

"What's going on in the Wasteland?"

Xue Wuxin felt extremely frustrated, as if he had traveled a long distance to the Wasteland only to die.

Li Xuan looked at Xue Wuxin on the ground, his brows slightly furrowed. Where did this martial artist come from? Why did he attack Meng Chong? Could it be as Meng Chong said, sent by Emperor Wu?

If it were a martial artist sent by Emperor Wu, their strength would not be inferior to that of Qi State, which should also have martial artists, otherwise, it would have been annexed by Wu State long ago.

However, Xu Yan had been in Qi State for a long time without seeing any martial artists.

"Wait! Xu Yan fought with someone. Could it be that the Qi Emperor took a breath and invited a martial artist?"

Qi State's martial strength had always been very low.

From various signs, there were no martial artists. Otherwise, Xu Yan, who believed in legends and sought out high people to cultivate true martial arts, wouldn't have been ridiculed as being not very smart.

Li Xuan was about to have Meng Chong interrogate Xue Wuxin's background and strength when he saw Xu Yan flying over.

His eyebrows raised, and he suddenly understood. Could the martial artist who fought with Xu Yan be this person?

Xu Yan followed the direction Xue Wuxin fled, and outside Yunshan County, he saw a golden dragon flash by. He was startled. Was it his master?

He hurried over and indeed saw Xue Wuxin on the ground, restrained by a golden dragon.

"Master!"

Xu Yan bowed respectfully.

Then he saw the injury on Meng Chong's hand and was startled. "Junior brother, did he injure you?"

"Yes, senior brother. If it weren't for Master returning, I would be dead."

Meng Chong said with lingering fear.

"This guy might be sent by Emperor Wu to kill me!"

Meng Chong said through gritted teeth.

"It's probably not."

Xu Yan was taken aback. Meng Chong had misunderstood.

"You fought with him, tell me about it."

Li Xuan looked at Xu Yan and asked.

"Yes, Master!"

Xu Yan nodded and recounted the entire story.

He went to the capital to investigate the origin of the dry corpses, thinking it was the work of the legendary corpse fangs, but it wasn't. He planned to return and ask his master what kind of monster was causing harm.

However, at a station a hundred miles away, he found all the station officials dead, their blood drained, and encountered Xue Wuxin's attack. After a fierce battle, Xue Wuxin fled.

Li Xuan was startled. This is a demon cultivator!

Drinking others' blood, what else could it be?

Where did this demon cultivator come from?

He finally understood why Xue Wuxin attacked Meng Chong. He must have seen Meng Chong's vigorous qi and blood, rich in essence, which could help him recover and enhance his strength.

He underestimated Meng Chong's strong body and was careless in his first two attacks.

Fortunately, he was careless, or Meng Chong would have been dead by the time he returned!

"Speak. Where are you from, and what are your intentions?"

Li Xuan slightly loosened the golden dragon restraining Xue Wuxin, allowing him to speak.

This was a good opportunity to understand the martial world.

What is the martial strength in the martial world, and what level is his current strength?

"Speak quickly!"

Meng Chong clenched his fists, glaring at Xue Wuxin angrily.

"Confess, or I'll kill you!"

He almost died, and Meng Chong was still furious.

Xue Wuxin's heart sank. Li Xuan seemed unfathomable, with profound strength, far beyond a grandmaster.

Escape was impossible; he could only try to save his life!

"Forgive me, senior. I am Xue Wuxin from the Inner Domain, pursued by enemies, and fled to the Wasteland!"

Xue Wuxin carefully said.

The Inner Domain!

The Wasteland!

Li Xuan understood that Qi State and Wu State were in the Wasteland, and beyond the endless mountains was the Inner Domain!

The Inner Domain has martial artists!

Xue Wuxin should be a demon martial artist from the Inner Domain, injured and fleeing to the Wasteland.

What level is his strength in the Inner Domain?

What is the martial world like in the Inner Domain?

Why is the quality of Xue Wuxin's "true qi" poor? Is it due to the cultivation method or the difference in the martial system?

Li Xuan, as a reclusive high person, would not ask these questions.

He must know everything about this world.

If he asked, wouldn't it show that he, a high person, knows nothing about the martial world?

Moreover, he didn't need to ask.

Xu Yan was already excitedly asking.

Where is the
