Slay Another Late-stage Golden Core Expert! Black Spikes Pierce Armor

Swoosh--swoosh--

Two figures sped through the air one after the other, the spiritual power brewing on the pursuer growing stronger and stronger, the spiritual light they generated spreading out like waves of sunlight, and their speed increasing rapidly.

However, no matter how fast he ran, the fleeing person in front always managed to create distance using all sorts of unbelievable methods, maintaining the lead and never being caught.

"Did this Dao Child of the Longevity Sect earn his reputation by escaping for his life? How come he has so many ways to escape?"

Shen Tu Jingming stared intently at Qiao Zhaoxian, who was consistently in the lead. He was gradually losing patience and wanted to give up, unwilling to continue the arduous pursuit.

He would rather fight a bloody battle with a cultivator of the same realm than be led by the nose by Golden Core Early Stage. This feeling was like walking a dog, and he was the dog.

In that brief moment of distraction, the gust of wind rushing towards them suddenly intensified.

Boom boom boom--

A long, continuous chain of fire, filled with an unstable, explosive, and dangerous aura, swept from front to back like a flaming whip.

This was nothing more than a trivial trick. Shen Tu Jingming's black robe fluttered, and his figure became a blur as he dodged in an instant.

However, the series of exploding fireballs collided and produced a violent secondary explosion, with flames and surging upwards.

Shen Tu Jingming's figure was instantly swallowed up by the rising smoke.

When he reappeared, seeing that Qiao Zhaoxian had widened the distance in front of him again, he was instantly filled with inexplicable anger, and his temples throbbed.

"How hateful!"

He let out a long roar, and the thought of giving up that had been somewhat discouraged was completely burned away by the fire. As he circulated his Core Power, his figure sped forward again.

More than 500 miles away.

A streak of purple light flashed like lightning across the red branches, passing by in an instant, yet strangely, it didn't even stir up the slightest sound.

It was as if the air and the gale in front of it avoided it, allowing this purple light to spread rapidly and silently toward the other side of the sky.

Within the purple Escape Light, Chen Dengming sensed something; his Heavenly Eye had vaguely detected movements in the far distance.

He suddenly withdrew from the state of the Heavenly Immortal Dao Domain, and the chaotic air currents that had been pushed aside around his body immediately became violently agitated and surged in rapidly.

My whole body felt as if it suddenly sank, and it was as if several walls of wind, sharp and painful to the skin, were crashing into me from the front, quickly breaking apart into circles of sonic boom clouds like white waves.

Chen Dengming remained calm, maintaining his rapid flight. At the same time, he quickly took out Heart Mending Pill and Qi-Boosting Pills from his Storage Bag to consume and refine them. Then, he took out the Soul -Soul-Reaping Bow Staff that he had obtained from the Soul Devouring Ancestor.

After a moment's thought, he put away the Soul-Reaping Bow Staff and replaced it with the Soul-Reaping Bow had obtained from Dou Han.

The Soul-Reaping Bow Staff is now reduced to a single arrow composed of four golden-core Yin spirits.

One of the key figures, Jia Guoxian, Dragon Transformation Sect who harbored deep resentment towards Chen Dengming, had lost all his other arrows in the battle against the Nascent Soul Dragon Beast.

Therefore, this fourth-tier high-level Nascent Soul Law Treasure can only withstand the power of one arrow in a short time.

Chen Dengming planned to first use the ordinary Soul Reaping Arrow fired from the Soul-Reaping Bow to paralyze the powerful enemy.

He then summoned the Soul Guiding Banner, using the Yin Souls of the Soul Devouring Sect Devil Cultivator within it as Soul Arrows, transmitting his Core Power in an instant.

The black banners exuded Yin Qi, billowing and fluttering in the wind.

As these preparations were completed, the two sides grew increasingly closer.

The sound of wind being cut could be faintly heard coming from ahead.

Chen Dengming steadied himself and continued to speed toward the direction from which Qiao Zhaoxian had come.

Three hundred li.

Two hundred li.

One hundred miles

Chen Dengming once again channeled his Immortal Celestial Dao Power, his eyes shimmering with blue light, and instantly locked onto two figures rushing towards him from afar.

"Old Chen! Hurry! I'm almost at my limit."

Qiao Zhaoxian's Divine Sense surged violently, as if he was about to die.

Chen Dengming flapped his Purple Winged Double Wings, rapidly closing the distance. His hair danced wildly in the wind, yet his expression grew increasingly calm, as if he had entered the Heavenly Heart Realm.

At the very moment when only fifty miles remained.

Shen Tu Jingming also quickly noticed his figure.

In that instant, blue light surged in Chen Dengming's eyes. He drew his bow, conjured an arrow with his ghostly spirit, and released the arrow in one fluid motion, as swift as lightning.

"Call out!--"

A soul arrow pierced the air, instantly transforming from a solid into an illusion, completely ignoring wind resistance, and swiftly shot towards Shen Tu Jingming's chest.

Shen Tu Jingming was startled, anticipating the trajectory of the arrow a step in advance, and nimbly dodged it to the side.

However, the moment he dodged it, the soul arrow changed direction on its own, and the hideous ghost face at the arrowhead howled and devoured him.

"Roll!"

Shen Tu Jingming suddenly opened his mouth, revealing fangs, and a terrifying Sha Qi burst forth from his body, transforming into an ancient, scarlet, cloud-seal character for "corpse" that crashed into the Soul Arrow.

In an instant, the soul arrow shattered.

But at that very moment, another arrow came hurtling towards them.

Shen Tu Jingming instinctively and quickly dodged again.

However, the arrow once again tracked down and sought to take the soul.

A barrage of soul arrows shot through the air like ghosts, so fast that even the sound of them cutting through the wind was inaudible, one after another.

One after another.

Thirty miles away.

Chen Dengming continuously drew his bow, drew his arrow, and released it. His hand speed was so fast that it was almost a blur in the image. His movements were fluid and fast, as if he had unleashed a dense rain of arrows in an instant.

Shen Tu Jingming was within the range of the arrow rain. At first, he was able to break through the persistent soul arrows with the corpse talisman formed from the corpse's evil energy.

In the end, there were simply too many arrows. With a whoosh, he stomped his foot, and his Sha Qi surged and exploded.

A pair of claws covered in red Red Hair appeared with blood-red runes.

Suddenly, a claw light, a pale green mixed with blood red, shot out, slashing fiercely.

Whoosh--

The claw shadows grew larger in the wind, transforming into two ghastly Blood Claw that vibrated the air with a deafening roar, accompanied by a series of crackling thunderous sounds.

The force was as strong as a mountain, creating a powerful and overwhelming force. The Crimson Azure Claws cleared a path, and the soul arrows collapsed one after another. The air was torn apart and swirled violently, like a raging torrent splitting the shore.

At the same time, more than ten miles away, Chen Dengming had already changed to the Soul-Seizing Staff Bow.

His eyes suddenly flashed with Silver Light as he channeled his Human Immortal Way Power and began to draw the bow.

Zla--

The Spiritual Qi in the surrounding air was boiling, making a sizzling sound, and tiny arcs of electricity kept flashing.

Chen Dengming was enveloped in Silver Light, his muscles and bones began to grow and lengthen, and his body seemed to be getting bigger as well. He entered a state of semi- Human Immortal Physique. The Human Immortal Way Power surged and flowed throughout his body, as if electrified, shining brightly and illuminating his entire body.

He swiftly drew his bow, and a golden core soul arrow suddenly condensed, with four golden core yin spirits quickly intertwining to form the arrowhead.

Blinding silver light, like arcs of electricity, began to coil densely around the arrow.

Qiao Zhaoxian had just rushed to Chen Dengming's vicinity, keenly sensed an extremely dangerous aura emanating from the other party, and his hair stood on end. Only then did he remember what kind of arrow Chen Dengming had been shooting for so long.

"The Soul-Reaping Bow Staff? The Soul Reaping Arrow! The Soul Devouring Old Devil's signature Law Treasure, how did it end up in Old Chen's hands?"

In that instant of shock...

Boom--

The bowstring twanged, and a burst of air exploded outwards.

The arrow transformed into the shape of the Four Symbols, flashing with Silver Light, and vanished into nothingness in an instant, heading straight for Shen Tu Jingming ahead.

Shen Tu Jingming had just cleared away a group of soul arrows when he sensed another soul arrow silently approaching. He instinctively controlled his Blood Curse Claws to strike.

But the moment he launched the attack, he instinctively sensed a strong threat.

The Corpse Chain Law Treasure beneath his feet instantly transformed into a black shadow to block the attack.

Whoosh--

A swift arrow, moving with lightning speed, pierced through the gaps in the claw shadows, grazed the Corpse Chain with a 'clang,' and passed by Shen Tu Jingming.

Shen Tu Jingming's body stiffened, his soul trembled, and his Divine Sense was struck by the golden arrow, causing him a sharp pain. A bloodstain rapidly spread across his neck and shoulder, and blood spurted out at the same time.

His mind went blank. Suddenly sensing an extreme threat, he instinctively retreated, roared, and made a hand seal. He clenched his blood-curse claws together, creating a sonic boom cloud in the air, where a large amount of Spiritual Qi gathered.

A figure shrouded in Silver Light appeared ahead, gradually growing larger, and a gleaming broadsword appeared in its hand at some unknown time.

With a flash of the blade, a violent wind howled, and the torn air seemed to explode.

"Cut!"

Chen Dengming's eyes shone with fierce power, and he suddenly unleashed a slash that tore through the air like a hurricane.

The two clasped Blood Claw were cleaved in two by a swift flash of light, splitting in a fierce Silver Light.

However, with this buffer, Shen Tu Jingming's figure had already transformed into a phantom, shrinking into the rolling black robe.

The blade flashed, but only struck an afterimage.

The Soul Reaping Arrow turned around, like a green dragon swinging its tail, and shot towards the black-robed figure. The moment it hit, the black-robed figure exploded.

A figure covered in Red Hair appeared from another direction and fled in panic.

But in that instant, Qiao Zhaoxian's angry roar came, and the Tiandao Square Halberd, accompanied by a 'crack' of lightning and immense heavenly might, descended from the sky like a twisted golden serpent.

The object struck the Red Hair figure with a deafening roar, instantly engulfing it in a burst of electricity.

Even so, the figure continued to flee.

A flash of purple light appeared behind Chen Dengming.

His figure flashed by like lightning, and with a swift movement, his Hurricane Battle Saber swung horizontally, its light exploding to over ten zhang in length, instantly traversing the distance between them.

The moment Shen Tu Jingming turned around, he felt a purple light accompanied by an astonishingly expanding blade aura flash past. He only had time to spit out a nail emitting black corpse energy.

"Clang"!

Chen Dengming felt a tightness in his chest, and a shockwave spread out Ruyi Treasure Armor.

He brushed past the other person, and a spray of blood splattered across half of his body.

From the side and behind, Shen Tu Jingming widened in anger, he opened his mouth, and his hand subconsciously reached out to touch the neck that was spurting blood.

However, just as he raised his hand, a head that was still smoking and sparking fell off his shoulders, and more blood gushed out like a fountain.

"So fast!"

Qiao Zhaoxian was just about to rush over and beat the drowning dog, was dumbfounded and watched in astonishment as Chen Dengming skillfully began to Soul Guiding Banner to collect the soul and prevent the enemy from self-destructing his golden core.

Depend on!

Despite his near-death experience during a major overhaul in the Golden Core Late Stage, he raced relentlessly all the way, only to arrive at his destination with a single assist?

Chen Dengming took away Shen Tu Jingming's soul, quickly removed the Ruyi Treasure Armor, and feeling the severe depletion of his Dao power, immediately dispersed his Dao power and withdrew from the state of being half-entered into the Human Immortal Physique.

Now that he can use the Human Immortal Way Power more skillfully, he can enter the state of a half- Human Immortal Physique at any time.

In this state, the Human Immortal Way Power is consumed less, and the increase in one's own strength is not bad, especially when Martial Dao Divine Ability, the amplification power is extremely strong.

At this moment, as his body returned to normal, Chen Dengming felt increasingly tightness in his chest, along with excruciating pain and a feeling of his vital energy dissipating.

Looking down, I saw a swollen mark from stagnation at the Tanzhong acupoint on my chest.

"To have such a strong penetrating Golden Core Late Stage even through the Ruyi Treasure Armor, it's truly extraordinary..."

Chen Dengming hissed, pressed his chest, and coughed up several mouthfuls of black, congealed blood.

He immediately took the healing pills, then frowned and stared with heartache at the black nails firmly embedded in the Ruyi Treasure Armor.

The nail, stained black like blood, exuded a foul odor a mixture of rust and blood, sinister and evil.

In just a short while, the Ruyi Treasure Armor's spiritual light dimmed, the restoration Formation was destroyed, and its spiritual power was greatly diminished.

"What the hell is this?!"

Chen Dengming was frustrated and didn't dare to use his Hurricane Battle Saber to pry out the black nails.

He quickly took out a second-tier Law Artifact, a flying shuttle, from his Storage Bag and swiftly picked out the black nails.

As soon as the nail was removed, the shuttle was already stained with a black, rusty aura, its brilliance greatly diminished, and it was on the verge of being scrapped.

On the chest area of Ruyi Treasure Armor, a dent from a nail is clearly visible, and the surrounding area is still blood-black, stained with blood rust, and severely damaged.

"Haha, Old Chen, you've ruined another good thing?"

Qiao Zhaoxian gloated as he approached, feeling much better about his earlier frustration at missing out on a kill in the Golden Core Late Stage.

Chen Dengming glanced sideways at Qiao Zhaoxian, who seemed completely unaffected. "Didn't you just say you'd reached your limit? You seem fine now? Looks like I can't act too quickly next time."

Qiao Zhaoxian's smile froze, and he immediately clutched his chest, feigning pain, groaning, "I was so happy that I forgot I was injured too. It doesn't feel good, it really doesn't feel good. Old Chen, thank goodness you acted in time. Next time, you must be just as quick."

Chen Dengming rolled his eyes, too lazy to pay attention to this clown, looked at Shentu Soul Guiding Banner -Shen Tu Jingming, pointed to the black nail floating in the air, and coldly questioned him.

"What kind of Law Treasure is this? Why is it so insidious? Is there a good way to get rid of it?"

Shen Tu Jingming's soul was controlled. Although his face was ashen, he forced himself to remain calm and not panicked, staring intently at Chen Dengming and sneering.

"This is a deadly nail I forged using the heart's blood of a thousand-year-old corpse demon combined with the coffin nails from a thousand-year-old corpse coffin. Once you're nailed into this, your Physical Body will instantly rot, and even your Law Treasure will be destroyed. Want to get rid of it? Hehehe."

Before he could even laugh twice, he cried out in pain as Chen Dengming struck his soul with the Spirit Refining Art.

"Asking you means you still have value? Are you trying to get yourself killed by talking so sarcastically?"

Chen Dengming frowned and said coldly.

Shen Tu Jingming snorted angrily, "If you dare to destroy my soul, our Iron Armor Sect's patriarch will not let you off the hook. You are ultimately outsiders. If you dare to kill me, the Four Seas Cultivation Alliance will punish you!"

Chen Dengming frowned, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes, and intensified the attack of the Spirit Refining Art.

Shen Tu Jingming immediately screamed in agony.

Chen Dengming's eyes hardened with coldness as he said calmly, "We are all Golden Core Cultivator. At this stage of cultivation, no one has clean hands."

If you know what's good for you, answer my questions. Otherwise, what if I destroy your soul?

"Our Longevity Sect has only temporarily fallen into decline, not been wiped out. Our ancestors are only serving in service, not all of them are dead."

(Please vote for me, brothers, let's keep our ranking stable! There's an extra chapter today! I'm also recommending a friend's new book, <We've All Exorcised Demons, What's the Point of Martial Virtue>)

I recommend my friend Xinyi's "They've All Exorcised Demons, What's the Point of Talking About Martial Virtue?" It's a good read for fans of Liaozhai stories. The protagonist writes Liaozhai stories within the Liaozhai world, making it lighthearted and fun!
