Practice Tool

"I hate guys like you the most, the ones who talk without thinking."

Gu Yao was incredibly arrogant, but suddenly he heard a woman's voice by his ear.

His pupils contracted sharply. He saw a spatial rift appear beside him, and a woman in white suddenly appeared before him, thrusting a black iron rod towards him.

It turned out the woman was Kaguya Hime.

Kaguya, within the Misty Cloud Sect, had suddenly sensed the aura of an approaching enemy, so she decisively struck.

The best way to catch bandits is to first catch their king. She planned to capture Gu Yao first.

"Nine-Star Dou Venerate, this is impossible."

Gu Yao was startled. The Misty Cloud Sect was just a local power, how could it have a Nine-Star Dou Venerate guarding it?

He dodged quickly, avoiding the strike of the All-Killing Ash Bones. He flicked his storage ring, a long spear appeared in his hand, and after parrying several black iron rods, he condensed powerful Dou Qi at the tip of his spear, releasing tens of thousands of ferocious beasts and charging fiercely at Kaguya.

"Myriad Beast Spear Technique!"

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Dou Qi phantoms of lions, tigers, giant bears, hungry wolves, wild dogs, and eagles roared and howled in the sky, endless and inexhaustible, engulfing Kaguya.

However, it had no effect on Kaguya. Her body instantly vanished into nothingness, causing all of Gu Yao's attacks to miss. Then, Kaguya reappeared from another spatial rift.

This display terrified Gu Yao and the others. The ability to traverse space at will was something only a Dou Saint expert could achieve!

"Brother Gu Yao, what should we do?"

Commander Yang Hao and Commander Lin Xiu were both shocked by Kaguya's methods. The opponent actually had a Nine-Star Dou Venerate expert; they were no match for her.

"What do you mean, what should we do?" Gu Yao glared angrily at Yang Hao and Lin Xiu. "Once the Black Annihilation Army is deployed, the world will submit. A mere Nine-Star Dou Venerate, I, your Grand Commander, have ways to deal with it. You just need to deal with these weaklings."

Gu Yao possessed various high-level Dou Skills from the Ancient Clan. Fighting beyond his level was not a problem, so why would he fear a Nine-Star Dou Venerate like Kaguya?

But as soon as he finished speaking, reality slapped him in the face, because saber appeared before them at that very moment.

Two Nine-Star Dou Venerates.

The members of the Ancient Clan were struck by lightning. This was terrible. They shouldn't have left the Ancient Realm privately. What should they do now?

"Retreat!"

Gu Yao grunted resentfully. The appearance of two Nine-Star Dou Venerates immediately made him want to retreat.

These people, who were just incredibly arrogant, were now fleeing like stray dogs, following closely behind Gu Yao. It was utterly ridiculous.

"You come to the Misty Cloud Empire to cause trouble, and you think you can just leave after you're done?"

saber slashed down with her sword. The supreme and peerless golden sword intent shattered the sky, and streaks of sword energy ravaged everything in their path.

"Ahhh!"

Ten Dou Venerate experts from the Black Annihilation Army were struck by this unstoppable sword intent. They all spat blood and fell to the ground, creating countless deep pits on Misty Cloud Mountain. It was a gruesome sight.

Gu Yao was both terrified and enraged, his eyes about to split. Blood essence churned within him. "Misty Cloud Sect, don't push your luck! My Ancient Clan has many Dou Saint experts. You can't afford to offend us. You've already caused a huge disaster, and you still dare to attack!"

Gu Yao was now like a fish in a net, prey in a hunter's mouth, his life and death completely in the hands of others.

He regretted rushing to the Misty Cloud Sect to stand up for Gu Xun Er. If he had known the Misty Cloud Sect had two Nine-Star Dou Venerates, he would have brought the Ancient Clan's communication jade slip.

Xiao Yi Xian, hearing Gu Yao's words, snorted indignantly. "You can't beat us, so you want to run? You can't run, so you pull out your connections to scare us. I've seen plenty of trash like you. It's truly disgusting."

Medusa and Yun Yun also nodded in agreement with Xiao Yi Xian's opinion. "Perhaps people from these ancient families are all like this!"

"Bitch, shut up, shut up!" Gu Yao cursed, pointing furiously at Xiao Yi Xian and the others. "The dignity of my Ancient Clan is sacred and inviolable!"

Xiao Yi Xian was not afraid of Gu Yao and unleashed her sharp tongue. "Sacred and inviolable, you say? The people you brought are all crippled now, and you still have the nerve to talk big? Truly shameless."

"You..." Gu Yao was so enraged that his face turned ashen. He almost spat blood, wishing he could rip Xiao Yi Xian's tongue out.

"Let's kill this guy first," Kaguya and Saber attacked in unison, heading straight for Gu Yao.

Both of them were Nine-Star Dou Venerates. How could Gu Yao possibly be their match? In an instant, he was beaten so badly he couldn't tell north from south, wildly attacking the surrounding air like a mentally unstable madman.

"Great Nirvana Finger!"

"Emperor Seal Art!"

Two Dou Skills were continuously unleashed. The sky vibrated, and an energy storm raged and churned above. Even Nine-Star Dou Venerate experts wouldn't dare to casually take these attacks.

But Kaguya was different. Relying on her special abilities, her body would always vanish into space, making Gu Yao's Dou Skills unable to hit her.

saber's fighting style, on the other hand, was head-on. She used her long sword to slash through all the Dou Skills in front of her, finally closing the distance and directly slashing horizontally at Gu Yao's body.

"Crack!"

Suddenly, Gu Yao felt his body lighten. He realized his upper and lower body had been completely separated at the waist by a sword strike.

His lower body fell to the ground with a thud. The nerves in his legs were still twitching. His upper body floated in the air, and a large amount of intestines flowed out. His internal organs also fell out with a splash, along with blood, scattering all over the ground.

"Ahhh, it hurts so much!" Gu Yao clutched his head, crying out in agony. He wanted to escape with his soul, but his Soul Origin had been shattered by a sword strike. Finally, his eyes rolled back, and he fell to the ground... dead.

He, who had been so arrogant and looked down on everything moments ago, was now a mangled corpse, filled with irony.

No one felt pity for his tragic death, because his actions were too cruel. He had actually massacred innocent civilians, and his death was well-deserved.

Just then, Qing Lin and Mo Youyou arrived before Gu Yao's corpse like two gusts of wind, pried open the storage ring on Gu Yao's hand, and openly began to divide the spoils.

"Wow, this Myriad Beast Spear Technique is actually High-tier Earth, and this Great Nirvana Finger is Heaven-tier," Qing Lin said, taking out two scrolls and giggling. "I'll take these two Dou Techniques."

Mo Youyou pouted, rummaged for a while, collected a large pile of pills, and then hugged a Heaven-tier cultivation method called the Ancient Emperor Treasure Codex like a treasure.

The Ancient Clan members were shocked and enraged. Two young girls, not even Dou Kings, were dividing the Ancient Clan's cultivation methods and Dou Techniques right in front of them. How dare they!

"Should we kill these people too?" Medusa pointed at the injured Black Annihilation Army below and suggested.

If you don't cut the grass at the roots, it will grow back with the spring breeze. Since they had already fallen out with the ancient families, leaving these people alive would eventually be a disaster. It would be better to finish them off completely and feed them to the dogs.

"What, this woman wants to kill us?" All the Ancient Clan members trembled.

These damned people just attacked Gu Yao without regard for his identity as a member of the Ancient Clan, and now they want to kill us.

"Don't kill them."

Suddenly, Yun Yun hurriedly stopped them, rejecting Medusa's suggestion. "They cannot die."

"Why?" Medusa frowned, not understanding.

Yun Yun said, "Killing that Gu Yao is enough. As for the rest of them, it's better not to kill them."

Hearing Yun Yun's dissuasion, the Ancient Clan members were overjoyed. It seemed this woman knew how terrifying the Ancient Clan was, which was why she didn't dare to kill them.

"This young lady is right. Gu Yao was ungrateful and angered the young ladies of the Misty Cloud Sect. He deserved his punishment. But we are different from Gu Yao. The Misty Cloud Sect is magnanimous. Please let us go!" Yang Hao quickly declared his stance, stating he wasn't familiar with Gu Yao.

Lin Xiu also quickly said, "We really shouldn't be killed. Killing us would dirty the young ladies' hands. When we return, we will immediately report the entire incident to the clan and make sure Gu Yao's crimes here are made public, so everyone knows how magnanimous the Misty Cloud Sect is."

Yang Hao and Lin Xiu fawned over them incessantly, and the other Ancient Clan members followed suit, greatly criticizing Gu Yao's numerous crimes, almost slandering him into an eternal sinner.

Despite their flattery, these people harbored a secret resentment. They secretly swore that if they could return alive today, they would mobilize the Black Annihilation Army and leave no trace of the Misty Cloud Sect, cripple all these damned women's cultivation, and after they were tired of them, send them to the filthiest slave markets to be defiled and bullied by those lowly slaves.

"You want to let them go?" Xiao Yi Xian showed a hint of dissatisfaction. She felt Yun Yun's actions were a bit too timid and cowardly.

If these people were let go, the Misty Cloud Sect would inevitably face a catastrophe. In the face of such a situation, one must be decisive and cut off all ties to survive.

Yun Yun shook her head and said, "We have just ascended to the Dou Venerate realm, and we can't fully control our Dou Qi yet. As for these people, they are all seriously injured. Their current strength is about the same as ours. They are perfect to use as practice tools."

"Practice tools?" The other women were confused.

"Yes, practice tools," Yun Yun continued. "There are ten of them, and ten of us. We'll each take one and kill them all. It will also serve as a test of our cultivation results this time."

Medusa strongly agreed with Yun Yun's point. She hadn't truly experienced the power of a Dou Venerate after her promotion. "This proposal is excellent. I'll go first. I'll kill two for fun."

The Ancient Clan members cried out, "Ah!"
