Chapter 89

The person who arrived was a famous real person from Qingling Mountain, named Xuanbing Zhenren, who specialized in cultivating the Xuanbing Sword Intent and possessed formidable combat power, ranking among the top five of the real people on Qingling Mountain.

Accompanying him was a bone-chilling aura that enveloped a hundred feet. The little creature on his shoulder, upon touching this coldness, bared its teeth and growled lowly, as if it were unwilling to submit.

"Hehe, Xuanbing Zhenren, how have you been? Today's visit is merely to settle the old debts from last month. As for the deadlocks, weren't they already resolved long ago? Why are you still talking so much nonsense!" A figure emerged, enveloped in a myriad of dark smoke, and laughed coldly.

If Chu He could turn back and look, he would certainly find this figure somewhat familiar. However, at this moment, he was too busy trying to escape to care about such things.

"Hmph! Since that's the case, let's have a fight then." Seeing the critical situation below, Xuanbing Zhenren did not waste any more words. The white light surrounding his body surged, instantly transforming into a snow-white ice python that lunged at Dugou Zhenren from the air.

Transforming a magical treasure into a form with sword intent is one of the techniques of a real person. A magical treasure infused with sword intent is even more powerful, and it is difficult for a peer to resist it head-on.

"Starting with full strength, you must be full and bloated!" Dugou Zhenren saw the ice python's ferocity, condensing qi into ice as it flew through the air, leaving a trail of snow, clearly displaying its full power.

Not having found the young man's whereabouts yet, Dugou Zhenren did not have the patience to tangle with Xuanbing Zhenren. However, with the other side using full strength, it was impossible for him to quickly escape.

"Fight if you must, who's afraid of whom!" There were many disciples of the Hundred Toxins Sect below, and as an elder, Dugou Zhenren could not abandon the battle and flee in front of his juniors.

"Wu Fa, go find that boy!" A beam of light flew from Dugou Zhenren's hand and landed in the hands of a towering figure below.

The towering figure bowed and disappeared into the black mist, his whereabouts unknown.

Dugou Zhenren was also helpless about the current situation. He originally planned to come with another elder from the same sect, and together they could deal with Xuanbing Zhenren, drive him away, and easily find the young man named Chu He.

However, the intelligence was incorrect this time. They thought the other side only had one real person, but did not expect that the person escorting the disciples was also an elder. Now, with both sides' real people facing off, the situation was at a stalemate, not the one-sided victory they had imagined.

The only hope was that Wu Fa could take advantage of the chaos to find the target, seize the other fragment, and then sound the retreat.

...

Chu He was almost at the front, riding the Flying Cloud Leap. However, he did not expect that the fatso Wu Yuanming, who had been troubling him, was even further ahead.

Chu He detested such people who usually bullied others with their power but ran to the front when trouble came. If there were no one around, Chu He would not mind using a Yi Wood Divine Thunder to vent his frustration.

At the waist of the mountain, the array gate had already opened. The Qingling Mountain disciples who emerged in a line formed sword formations in groups of three or five, heading down to attack the Hundred Toxins Sect disciples who were pursuing Chu He and the others.

These Qingling Mountain disciples, at least at the innate realm, once formed sword formations, whether it was a Three Talents Sword Formation or a Four Symbols Sword Formation, could significantly increase their overall combat power. If the Hundred Toxins Sect disciples did not rely on their bizarre and hard-to-resist poison fog, they would not be a match for an equal number of Qingling Mountain disciples.

After entering the array gate, Chu He finally breathed a sigh of relief. With the protection of the array, if there were no real person at the yuan dan realm using high-level magical treasures to attack, ordinary innate realm cultivators would find it difficult to break through, making it temporarily safe.

The surroundings were very quiet since most of the defending disciples had gone out to support.

Suddenly, the fragment in his storage ring trembled, making Chu He's heart tighten. He quickly turned around to look.

"Ahh!" With a惨call, a spray of blood splattered. A cultivator behind him was pierced through the chest by a gray beam of light. It turned out that a Hundred Toxins Sect disciple had changed into Qingling Mountain disciple's clothing and infiltrated, then launched a surprise attack.

After suddenly killing the person behind, he immediately pinned another Qingling Mountain disciple to the ground with his magical treasure. The murderer then leisurely looked at the few people who had retreated to the side to guard.

Chu He saw that this person was tall and strong but had a very delicate appearance, with a horizontal scar on his face, giving him a fierce look. He was the Hundred Toxins Sect disciple, Wu Fa, who had been ordered to pursue.

The gray light that killed the two Qingling Mountain disciples was circling around him like a snake, emitting a chilling aura that made people shudder.

A magical treasure?! Seeing the extraordinary nature of the object, even the most foolish and short-sighted person could guess. Moreover, it was a poisonous magical treasure, and the two cultivators who were killed had already turned into a pool of rotten water in a short time.

Being able to control a magical treasure meant that this person's cultivation must be at least the upper stage of the innate realm. Among those present, only Wu Yuanming might match him in cultivation, while the others were far behind. This disparity was not only in cultivation but also in combat power.

"Hand over the item, and I'll leave you a whole body!" The man pointed at Chu He from a distance.

"Each to his own!" Wu Yuanming, upon hearing this, threw out these words and fled with his magical treasure. The others also scattered in a panic.

Chu He did not expect these useless people who only knew how to refine pills to help him. It was better that they all ran away, so he wouldn't have to be distracted by their cries.

"Come and take it if you can!" Chu He replied with a contemptuous tone.

Facing a much stronger opponent alone, panic and confusion would only lead to instant death. Only by remaining calm could he fight for a glimmer of hope, especially with Xiao Bai's assistance, which might give him a fighting chance.

While speaking, he took the opportunity to release two talismans, aiming directly at the opponent.

"Brave indeed." Wu Fa pointed with his hand, and the gray light suddenly leaped, rushing towards the two talisman lights.

"Crack!" White light burst forth, and a chill rolled over, trapping the gray light. But in just a moment, the gray light shook and broke free from the ice.

In that moment, Chu He had already formed the hand seals with both hands. He did not complete a single seal with both hands but formed a different seal with each hand, instantly creating an ice bird and a fire bird.

Compared to his battle with Zhang Longao, his magical arts had clearly improved significantly.

"Too late!" Wu Fa leaped up, pressing down from the air. The gray light expanded, transforming into a massive gray hand that came crashing down.

With this one strike, he had used his full strength, determined to kill the opponent and complete the task given by Dugou Zhenren beautifully.

Chu He, seemingly unaware of the massive gray hand pressing down, continued to quickly release the fire bird and ice bird with both hands.

"Hisss!" A faint sound suddenly arose, and a beam of white light shot from Chu He's shoulder, heading towards the massive hand.

"Shriek!" The white light struck the massive hand, and a silver glow spread, almost turning the gray hand completely silver. Not only that, but it also stunned the massive hand, which carried a tremendous force.

"Ah?!" Wu Fa did not expect this strike to be so powerful. The mental connection to his life-bound magical treasure was also slightly injured, causing him great discomfort.
