Master and Disciple Turn Against Each Other!
The sword-wielding Mid Nascent Soul was named True Person Hongyun, while the old man beside him was a rogue cultivator named True Person Sanyi.
True Person Hongyun watched as Shen Xiuyai below gradually furrowed his brows, until finally his pupils shrank to a single point.
Because he saw a jade pendant on the neck of the Thousand-Year Corpse King below.
"Xiuya?"
Shen Xiuyai was stunned upon hearing this. He opened his mouth and made a hoarse sound, but he couldn't put together a complete sentence.
Master...
The old man, known as the True Person Sanyi, narrowed his eyes. "Fellow Daoist, now is not the time to make wild accusations. Such a formidable creature cannot be cultivated in a thousand years. How could it possibly be your little disciple?"
"I believe that the one who killed your little disciple was this Thousand-Year Corpse King!"
True Person Hongyun gritted his teeth, "But I clearly heard that the one who harmed my disciple was a powerful demon in the Core Formation Stage!"
True Person Sanyi sneered, "How long has it been since Ancestor Yunhai established Mountain Sea Pass? How long has it been since a great demon appeared in the Human Domain?"
"You believe such a statement, fellow Daoist?"
True Person Hongyun frowned. Could it be that Nie Xiaoyu was lying?
But why? Why did she lie?
"Fellow Daoist, now is not the time to think about those things. If we let this great calamity of a thousand years go, it will surely cause great suffering to all living beings. Let us join forces to suppress it first, and then hand it over to the fellow Daoists of Zhengyang Mountain!"
True Person Hongyun nodded, and the two Nascent Soul cultivators attacked together!
Shen Xiuyai was stunned for a moment upon seeing this, "Uh... I..."
Before Shen Xiuyai could finish speaking, True Person Hongyun's sword came flying and pierced straight into his chest!
Block!
A sound like metal clashing rang out, and True Person Hongyun's Crimson Cloud Sword was directly deflected!
"His skin is like metal and stone, his head is like copper and his bones like iron, and he is impervious to sharp weapons. He is indeed the Corpse King. Fellow Daoist, I need to set up an array. Please hold off the Corpse King!"
How long will it take?
"The time it takes for an incense stick to burn!"
Master True Person Sanyi waved his hand and took out five array flags, which he arranged according to the Five Elements. In a short time, he chanted incantations and spells, and the speed was extremely fast!
True Person Hongyun also unleashed the Myriad Sword Art, splitting the Crimson Cloud Sword into hundreds and thousands, transforming into a dense rain of swords that swept towards Shen Xiuyai!
Upon seeing this, Shen Xiuyai rushed forward and used his physical body to withstand the flying swords!
"Ugh!"
Master, it's me...
Why are you looking at me like that?
True Person Hongyun's gaze sharpened, and he pointed his sword at the sky, shouting, "White Rainbow Sword Technique - Piercing Sun Style!"
The Crimson Cloud Sword the sky, and in an instant, the wind and clouds changed. The night was cleaved by the sword, and then a vortex was twisted out!
A massive white sword descended from the sky, its terrifying power shaking the heavens and the earth, striking Shen Xiuyai directly and pinning him to the ground!
Boom!!
Shen Xiuyai let out a roar.
"Uh... ah..."
It hurts so much, Master.
True Person Hongyun unleashed his killing move while secretly fuming.
Shen Xiuyai was the person he carefully selected to possess. Not only did Shen Xiuya have an Innate Dao Body, but Shen Xiuya was also someone he had raised from childhood and who was completely obedient to him.
He originally planned to possess Shen Xiuyai after this seclusion ended, because Shen Xiuyai's cultivation speed was too fast.
If we wait another ten years or so, Shen Xiuyai might break through to the Nascent Soul realm.
By then, he won't be able to possess the body even if he wanted to.
What a pity...
Thinking of this, True Person Hongyun was furious. If he could obtain the Innate Dao Body, he would have a chance to transform into a god Tribulation Crossing in this life!
Just like Shangguan Jinghong, the ancestor of the Changhong Sword, he cleaved through the heavens and ascended to immortality, leaving behind a legendary tale in the mortal world!
Damn it!!
True Person Hongyun unleashed all his anger on the Thousand-Year Corpse King in front of him, unleashing a barrage of sword techniques!
However, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break through Shen Xiuyai's physical body!
Even if it leaves a scar, it will only be a few shallow scratches.
"Fellow Daoist, step back! Activate the Five Elements Spirit Binding Array!"
As True Person Sanyi finished setting up the formation, five spirit locks extended from the formation flags and directly wrapped around Shen Xiuyai's head, arms, and hands!
"My Five Elements Formation borrows the spiritual energy of the five elements of heaven and earth to set up the formation. As long as the spiritual energy of the five elements is not exhausted, suppressing this great evil for sixty years should be no problem."
Seeing this, True Person Hongyun sheathed his sword and came to Shen Xiuyai's side.
Shen Xiuyai's arms, legs, and head were stretched taut, as if he were being torn apart, but he was still making hoarse, whimpering sounds.
True Person Hongyun's gaze turned cold, and he directly ripped the jade pendant off his neck.
Looking at the jade tablet, True Person Hongyun gritted his teeth and said, "Xiuya, you really died at the perfect time."
"I've been planning this for you for so many years, and I've acted out this whole master-disciple relationship for so long, but I never expected this."
"I should have known better than to wait."
"I might as well possess you while you're still a child."
As he spoke, True Person Hongyun crushed the jade pendant into pieces. It was a gift he had given Shen Xiuyai when he was twelve years old.
Although it's called a gift, it's actually more like a locator.
True Person Hongyun turned to leave, and just then, all the surrounding spiritual energy of the five elements suddenly converged behind True Person Hongyun.
Um?
True Person Hongyun suddenly turned his head, and with a crack, True Person Sanyi's Five Elements Formation shattered!
"How is this possible?!"
True Person Sanyi was completely dumbfounded. "My Five Elements Formation has actually been broken?!"
The surrounding spiritual energy of the five elements was all absorbed by the Corpse King, causing the spiritual energy of the five elements that maintained the Five Elements Formation to dissipate instantly!
True Person Hongyun was dumbfounded when he saw this scene, because he had seen this scene before!
"The Great Dao Fetal Absorption?"
"Innate Dao Body?!"
Could it be that...
As soon as True Person Hongyun raised his head, he saw that the Corpse King's fist was already right in front of him!
Boom!!
A loud bang!
True Person Hongyun was sent flying backwards and crashed heavily onto a distant mountain peak!
"Cough cough pfft..."
True Person Hongyun coughed up blood, his pupils trembling uncontrollably; he couldn't be mistaken!
Only those with Innate Dao Body can absorb spiritual energy in such a rapid and powerful manner!
"Build..."
Before True Person Hongyun could finish speaking, the Corpse King charged forward again, sweeping his leg across True Person Hongyun's chest and shattering the mountain with the force of the blow!
Boom!!!
The earth-shattering attack stunned True Person Sanyi. "Could it be that the Corpse King didn't exert any effort at all?!"
Are you kidding me?
True Person Hongyun collapsed with severe injuries and was lifted up by the Thousand-Year Corpse King with one hand.
Looking into the Corpse King's blood-red eyes, True Person Hongyun said weakly, "Xiuya... it's you... don't you recognize your master?"
The Thousand-Year Corpse King punched True Person Hongyun in the head!
"Didn't you say... you would repay your teacher for recognizing and nurturing your talents?"
The fist stopped, and the Corpse King's movements came to a complete halt.
Seeing this, True Person Hongyun grinned, and a Thousand Mile Teleportation Talisman appeared on his left hand, which was hidden behind his back.
"My good disciple, you have always known how to repay kindness, and you have a passionate heart and a strong sense of justice. That is precisely what your master likes about you..."
As he spoke, the Thousand Mile Teleportation Talisman hidden on True Person Hongyun's back suddenly burst into flames!
"Haha, good disciple, your master will return to the sect and wait for you!"
Whoosh!
A whooshing sound came, and True Person Hongyun vanished from his spot.
By the time Shen Xiuyai saw this, it was too late to intervene.
When True Person Sanyi saw Hongyun run away alone, he was taken aback. "Better to die than to die, my friend! You're quite fast!"
What should I do?
Shen Xiuyai turned to look at True Person Sanyi, and the next second he charged over!
"You beast, how dare you..."
Pfft!
"Ugh..."
True Person Sanyi's eyes widened as a blood-stained hand pierced his chest and ripped out his heart.
Shen Xiuyai's eyes flashed with bloodlust, and his sharp fangs appeared. He swallowed the man's heart right in front of him and drained all the blood from his body.
Whether it was the flesh and blood of the Nascent Soul stage that satisfied this body, new flesh gradually grew on Shen Xiuyai's rotten and ugly face.
All the decay and desiccation on his body vanished, revealing his true form. Number 0 083: Corpse King Jiang Chen "Master, why did you leave so quickly? I wanted to repay your kindness and support!"
