Chapter 68

Meng Hao sped through the Northern Sea, his speed increasing. The vast dantian within him surged, and before long, he faintly saw the sky beyond the lake. In an instant, he burst out of the Northern Sea with a loud splash, creating a large wave.

Almost the moment Meng Hao emerged, two sword lights whistled from different directions on the surface of the Northern Sea, heading straight for Meng Hao. They circled around him, one landing at his feet and the other hovering beside him, emitting a resonant hum.

At the same time, the lake water splashed again, and Ding Xin's figure suddenly flew out. The moment he emerged, Ding Xin saw Meng Hao, and his face changed drastically, revealing disbelief. He never thought that Meng Hao... was still alive!

"This is impossible! Without reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, no one can resist the sect's ultimate technique, the Purple Qi from the East, which I used after sacrificing my lifespan and cultivation!" Ding Xin stared intently at Meng Hao, taking a few steps back, still unable to believe that Meng Hao was still alive.

Or perhaps, he didn't want to believe it. Because at this moment, he was no longer at the Ninth Layer of Qi Condensation, and even the Eighth Layer was about to become unstable. With the difficulty of healing his chest wound and the dissipation of his spiritual energy, he would soon fall to the Seventh Layer of Qi Condensation.

Ding Xin's face immediately turned pale, but he was not like Qianshuihen and the others. Despite being shocked by Meng Hao's appearance, he quickly regained his composure and, without hesitation, turned and took a step forward. A large leaf instantly appeared under his feet, carrying him away at great speed, fleeing without a fight.

He had to escape. He had already seen that Meng Hao's injuries were completely healed, and his cultivation was even more advanced than before. With his own injuries and weakened state, how could he not flee?

Meng Hao watched coldly as Ding Xin rapidly retreated. He did not immediately pursue, but instead bowed deeply to the Northern Sea below, clasping his hands in a serious salute.

"I will never forget this great kindness!" Meng Hao's voice was resolute. After raising his head, he flicked his sleeve, and the flying sword beneath his feet hummed, transforming into a long rainbow and carrying him in pursuit of Ding Xin.

"From now on, you are my prey." Meng Hao's eyes revealed a killing intent. After leaving the Support Mountain Sect, apart from Shangguan Xiu, Ding Xin was the person Meng Hao strongly wanted to kill. His desire to kill had turned into a sharp gaze in his eyes. Since cultivating, he had never suffered such injuries, and this was no longer just an injury; he had... died once!

At this moment, his eyes shone with a cold light. Meng Hao's speed was so fast that he instantly left the Northern Sea area. After a short while, he saw Ding Xin, who had slowed down due to his falling cultivation, swallowing medicinal pills.

Without a word, Meng Hao suddenly raised his right hand and pointed forward. Immediately, the wooden sword beside him shot out, heading straight for Ding Xin. Ding Xin's face changed drastically, and he turned around. Knowing the strange nature of Meng Hao's wooden sword, he did not hesitate to pat his storage bag, and a black longbow instantly appeared. He quickly drew it, disregarding the dissipation of his spiritual energy, and fired an arrow.

A loud explosion echoed as the arrow and the wooden sword collided in mid-air. The arrow shattered, and the impact caused Meng Hao's wooden sword to pause.

Meng Hao's face was expressionless. As he pursued, he raised his right hand and pointed again. The wooden sword immediately shot out once more. Ding Xin's face turned pale, and he had to fire another arrow.

The explosion echoed again, and the wooden sword came once more.

Ding Xin's eyes were bloodshot. How could he not see that this was Meng Hao's revenge? His goal was to exhaust his cultivation and make him die from exhaustion.

But after his cultivation fell to the Ninth Layer and he was injured, he was already at a disadvantage. Shocked by the power of the wooden sword, he could only use arrows to counter it. However, due to his weakened cultivation, even the arrows were much weaker, lacking their former power. After firing the sixth arrow, his body trembled, his face turned ashen, and his cultivation was about to fall from the Eighth Layer to the Seventh Layer.

With his cultivation stagnating, the wooden sword came in an instant, piercing through Ding Xin's chest. It did not hit a vital point, but blood still gushed out. Ding Xin let out a惨叫, spitting out blood as he retreated in a panic.

His body trembled, and he clearly felt the spiritual energy within him dissipating from the sword wound. His already precarious cultivation immediately fell, from the Eighth Layer to the Seventh Layer!

This was not a true fall in cultivation, but rather a disparity between the recovery and consumption of spiritual energy. As the consumption continued, his spiritual energy became less and less, making him equivalent to the Seventh Layer of Qi Condensation.

Even if Ding Xin swallowed medicinal pills, the two sword wounds on his body also had the effect of dispersing spiritual energy, making it difficult for him to recover in a short time.

"I am a disciple of the Inner Sect of the Purple Luck Sect. If you dare to kill me, the Purple Luck Sect will hunt you for a hundred years, until you are dead!" Ding Xin let out a shrill scream. His hair was disheveled, and he was in a wretched state. As he roared, he let out another惨叫, struck again by Meng Hao's wooden sword. Although it did not pierce him, it left a bloody gash, causing his spiritual energy to dissipate even faster.

"Meng Hao, if you kill me, you will have no place to bury your body in the future! I am a disciple of the Inner Sect of the Purple Luck Sect. If I die, the entire Zhao Kingdom will be implicated. Do you dare to kill me!" Ding Xin trembled, suppressing his fear, and spat out more blood.

Meng Hao grabbed the large leaf that Ding Xin used to fly, said nothing, and pointed with his right hand. The wooden sword flew out again, heading straight for Ding Xin.

After a short while, Ding Xin fell in a forest, spitting out blood as he desperately tried to run forward. He could no longer fly, and his cultivation had fallen to the Third Layer of Qi Condensation.

"Meng Hao, if you kill me, you will die without a place to bury your body in the future! I am a disciple of the Inner Sect of the Purple Luck Sect. If I die, the entire Zhao Kingdom will be implicated. Do you dare to kill me!" Ding Xin trembled, suppressing his fear, and spat out more blood.
