Remember in one second 【↘→】, providing you with exciting novel reading. "Whoosh"

As Zhou Huo grabbed the air with his right hand, a fierce and domineering aura suddenly emerged, as if crossing over from another world. Immediately, a dark red, grotesque long sword appeared in his hand!

"Thud"

With the long sword in hand, Zhou Huo's entire demeanor changed. He stood up, a sinister smile crossing his dark face. He looked at Mo Honglian, Nalan Yan, and Shen Yushu on the other side of the large pit, and gave them a slight smile, which carried a chilling and terrifying meaning.

He raised his head and glanced at the two glowing light orbs floating in the air, the storage ring and the scroll. The desire in Zhou Huo's eyes was intensely concentrated!

"Whoosh"

With a kick of his right foot, Zhou Huo shot up into the sky, heading towards the two light orbs. His left hand stretched out, desperately wanting to grab the two items!

"Zhou Huo! Damn it, you want to take it all for yourself? Not so easy!"

"Hum"

Shen Yushu's pale face flashed with intense anger, and he immediately unleashed the remaining yuan force in his body, striking out with a powerful palm!

"Hum" "Thud"

Mo Honglian and Nalan Yan's expressions turned serious, and they both attacked simultaneously. Three powerful combat techniques swiftly struck towards Zhou Huo!

The three of them still had the strength to fight!

In the air, Zhou Huo, who had leaped high, saw the three combat techniques approaching him, but he showed no surprise. Instead, a glint of determination flashed in his eyes.

Zhou Huo was not surprised that Mo Honglian, Nalan Yan, and Shen Yushu still had the strength to fight. He knew that these three were among the top geniuses in the hundred major cities, and if they lacked this ability, they would not have had the chance to reach this point.

Now, Zhou Huo felt a bit excited, his eyes filled with intense and almost deranged excitement. He wanted these three to attack him, so he could then crush them with overwhelming force!

"Genius? Haha, I love killing geniuses the most..."

The corners of his mouth curled up, and Zhou Huo's expression suddenly became excited and bloodthirsty, like a hungry beast in the forest suddenly encountering an injured prey!

The dark red long sword in his right hand was suddenly held horizontally in front of his chest, and he lightly slashed at the three combat techniques that had already approached within two zhang of him!

"Hum" "Whoosh"

"Rumble"

A bright red sword beam, as if from hell, suddenly burst forth. The sword beam sliced through the air, resembling a half-moon fan, and instantly struck out, clashing with the three combat techniques!

"Shh..."

In just a breath, the bright red sword beam completely shredded the three combat techniques, as easily as slicing through melons and vegetables, and continued to rush towards the three on the ground!

Mo Honglian, Nalan Yan, and Shen Yushu, who had seen this, immediately changed their expressions, especially Mo Honglian, whose pupils almost contracted!

"Retreat!"

Nalan Yan's extremely grim voice rang out, and she immediately retreated at high speed. Mo Honglian and Shen Yushu were no slower, using their yuan force to retreat at full speed!

"Thud"

The bright red sword beam struck the ground, instantly creating a ten-zhang-long crack, deep and terrifying!

In the air, Zhou Huo's figure suddenly stopped, and his extended left hand grabbed the two light orbs, then descended.

"Thud"

Back on the ground, Zhou Huo looked at the storage ring and scroll still emitting a faint glow in his hand, his eyes filled with unhidden joy, and he laughed out loud to the sky!

"Whoosh"

The three, who had stabilized their figures, now had grim faces, especially Shen Yushu. Seeing the storage ring and scroll in Zhou Huo's left hand, his heart felt as if it were bleeding, a疯狂的嫉妒和怨恨直冲天灵盖，牙齿咬得咯咯响，元力鼓荡立刻就要出手！

“不要冲动！”

Nalan Yan stopped Shen Yushu's actions, her heroic face equally serious, but her eyes were focused on the dark red long sword in Zhou Huo's right hand!

“如果我没看错的话，周火手中的那柄长刀是一件……上品凡器！”

Her tone carried a sense of caution and gravity, Mo Honglian spoke solemnly.

“上品凡器？这下麻烦了。”

Despite having already guessed, Nalan Yan's heart still sank upon hearing Mo Honglian's words. She knew exactly what an upper-grade ordinary weapon represented.

“和季元阳一战，周火所受的伤绝不比你我要轻，虽然他的修为比我们强出一筹，但凭我们三人的实力，断然不会惧怕他们二人。可万万没想到，周火竟然还有一件上品凡器！我们失算了……”

Mo Honglian had personally witnessed the power of an upper-grade ordinary weapon.

At the time, Xu Qingjiao had relied on an upper-grade ordinary weapon to make Zheng Dao of the Blade City extremely wary, despite the fact that Zheng Dao's actual combat strength far exceeded Xu Qingjiao's without the weapon.

An upper-grade ordinary weapon could increase the combat power of a mid-stage Essence Soul Realm expert by at least thirty percent!

Now that Zhou Huo had an upper-grade ordinary weapon, even with his injuries, his combat power would not weaken but would only be stronger than before!

Moreover, Zhou Huo's cultivation was at the late-stage Essence Soul Realm, far surpassing Xu Qingjiao at the time. Xu Qingjiao could use the upper-grade ordinary weapon but could not fully control it, only barely unleashing its power.

But Zhou Huo was different. His thick yuan force and higher realm were sufficient to support the use of the upper-grade ordinary weapon, even with his injuries.

“退吧，现在的我们根本不可能是周火的对手。”

Nalan Yan's gaze was focused, though she was unwilling, she still spoke. She was always a person who could calmly assess the situation and would not take risks for goals that were impossible to achieve.

Mo Honglian nodded in agreement with Nalan Yan, but she was worried about Ye Wuque's arrival. Originally, she had been eagerly anticipating Ye Wuque's arrival, but now she hoped he would not come.

In Mo Honglian's understanding, even if Ye Wuque's cultivation advanced further, he would still be unable to contend with Zhou Huo, who now had an upper-grade ordinary weapon.

“你们商量好……怎么逃命了么？”

A cold, icy voice suddenly sounded from the opposite side. Zhou Huo, holding the storage ring and scroll in his left hand and the long sword in his right, looked at them with naked killing intent and a smile.

“咚咚咚……”

Taking steps, Zhou Huo slowly approached the three, seemingly unhurried, as if taking a leisurely stroll.

“嘿嘿……”

The red-haired youth also stood up, following Zhou Huo step by step, a fierce smile on his face, his eyes filled with hatred fixed on Mo Honglian!

Only the red-haired youth knew that the upper-grade ordinary weapon was Zhou Huo's trump card. In the cultivator's cave they had opened, there were not only high-grade third-rank elixirs but also a fire-type upper-grade ordinary weapon, the Blood Fierce Sword.

After the three of them took the elixirs and advanced to the late-stage Essence Soul Realm, Zhou Huo, with the deepest reserves and highest talent, naturally became the owner of the Blood Fierce Sword.

This was also why Zhou Huo was always confident. He knew that with an upper-grade ordinary weapon and late-stage Essence Soul Realm cultivation, his combat power would be unmatched in the Hundred Cities War!

“走！”

“嗖” “嗖”

Seeing Zhou Huo approaching step by step, Mo Honglian, Nalan Yan, and Shen Yushu immediately moved, rushing towards the ten-zhang passage!

“跑？跑得了么？咦？”

Seeing the three start to flee, Zhou Huo's gaze turned fierce. He then tried to store the storage ring and scroll in his own storage ring but found that he could not, as if some mysterious force was blocking it. In the blink of an eye, Mo Honglian and the others had already reached the entrance of the ten-zhang passage!

“哼！”

Seeing that he could not store them, Zhou Huo simply held them in his hand. He was confident that with an upper-grade ordinary weapon, no one in the Hundred Yuan World would make him fear.

“我要抓住那个净莲主城的莫红莲！断指之仇，就从她开始报！”

The red-haired youth's voice, filled with hatred and resentment, echoed. His finger had been broken by Zhou Huo, but he dared not harbor any resentment towards Zhou Huo, instead blaming everything on the Mo sisters!

“嗡”

The Blood Fierce Sword was slightly raised, and a fierce and domineering aura flowed out. A bloodthirsty glint flashed in Zhou Huo's cold eyes as he murmured, “你们……一个也别想跑，叶无缺，我会找到你的……”

“哗啦啦”

The yuan force liquid in the yuan force crystal stream violently churned, forming a vortex that had now reached five zhang in diameter. At the center of the vortex, a figure emitting a faint golden glow appeared and disappeared.

“嗡嗡嗡……”

Sitting in meditation, Ye Wuque had no idea how long he had been absorbing yuan force. His mind was completely calm, and the Holy Dao Battle Qi in his body seemed to have finally reached saturation. The qi and blood in his flesh, bones, and marrow continuously circulated, and a powerful feeling arose. The yuan force continuously surging around him stopped, as if completing its mission.

“嗡”

His motionless body suddenly trembled, and with this tremble, a much stronger aura than before flowed out. Ye Wuque's tightly closed eyes began to slowly flutter!

“嘭”

The yuan force crystal stream suddenly exploded, the yuan liquid splashing. A figure leaped out from it, enveloped in a faint golden yuan force, rising like a war god. His figure moved, completely leaving the yuan force crystal stream, and stepped firmly onto the solid ground.

“嗡”

Standing still, Ye Wuque circulated the Holy Dao Battle Qi in his body and found it to be at least twice as thick as before!

Opening his eyes, Ye Wuque clenched his fists, his gaze shining brightly, feeling the Holy Dao Battle Qi flowing through his body, the joy of breaking through his realm and increasing his cultivation was overwhelming!

“境界终于突破了，甚至远远超过我的预期！”

“嗡”

A pale silver soul moon slowly rose behind Ye Wuque. With the appearance of the soul moon, a powerful aura spread out. Ye Wuque, who had entered the yuan force crystal stream, finally broke through to the late-stage Heroic Soul Realm as he had wished. Not only that, due to the vast and concentrated yuan force in the stream, and being the first to absorb it, his realm directly ascended to the peak of the late-stage Heroic Soul Realm!

“一个时辰内，成功突破，叶无缺，你的确福缘深厚，不负我望，如此甚好、如此甚好啊……”

A voice filled with great satisfaction echoed, and Ye Wuque heard Ji Yuanyang's voice, filled with a smile, coming from behind him.

Ye Wuque immediately turned around, clasped his hands, and saw the young figure standing quietly behind him, while the silver sun in the sky had disappeared.
