Zhang Lan and the other two began closing in on the abandoned camp.
Before long, a White-Clad Cultivator rushed out of the camp.
The daoist robe he wore was lavishly styled and looked expensive, but after half a month on the run, it was caked in mud and hanging in tatters.
His face resembled the portrait Mo Hua had seen, though he looked far older now, with patches of rotten skin peeling away.
It seemed that, without anyone to cultivate with, his evil technique had backlashed, and his appearance had begun to wither and decay.
He was indeed the Evil Cultivator who practiced the Dual Cultivation Technique.
Once Zhang Lan and the other two confirmed it, they wasted no words and attacked at once, showing not the slightest mercy.
The Evil Cultivator spat out a curse and met their assault.
The battle erupted in an instant.
Mo Hua hid far away, secretly watching them fight.
Zhang Lan was a Spirit Cultivator skilled in water-element spells, and his techniques were quite formidable. From afar, he gathered his qi and cast spell after spell, condensing streams of Water Form Sword Qi that ceaselessly shot toward the Evil Cultivator.
Situ Fang and Situ Xiu were both Body Cultivators, and both cultivated saber techniques.
Situ Fang's saber was thin and light, pale green Lingli winding around its blade as her strikes came swift and dense. Situ Xiu, on the other hand, fought with broad, sweeping movements, using Lingli to stimulate his fleshly body until a faint golden glow radiated all over him.
The two engaged the Evil Cultivator at close range, keeping him pinned down.
The Evil Cultivator appeared to be a Body Cultivator as well. His blood and qi surged powerfully, and his weapon was an iron fan painted with wispy, delicate beauties.
