Chapter 2356: Might As Well Say You’re Xie Bufan (2/2)
“Ka-ca!”
The thin old man’s laughter came to an abrupt stop, and his head tilted to the side from losing support.
Then Huang Xiaolong extended his fingers and grabbed the thin old man by the shoulder as the devouring power of his godhead surged. The small courtyard was filled with the thin old man’s miserable screams as his body deflated like a balloon.
Everything happened too fast, and by the time the other three old men reacted, the thin old man had turned into a dried corpse.
This thin old man was one of Huang Xiaolong’s kill targets, possessing a complete dao saint godhead and saint bloodline.
“Brother Bai Ning!”
The other three old men screamed and leaped forward at the same time in anger, attacking Huang Xiaolong.
With a turn of his wrist, Huang Xiaolong's palm struck towards them. The three old men felt an overwhelming power hitting them and all three were knocked back as if a great mountain had rammed into them. Their feet grappled for balance on the flat ground, violently coughing up blood.
The floor was dyed red.
“You, who are you?!” One of the mid-Ninth Order Venerable Devil Palace’s experts demanded as he stared at Huang Xiaolong with shock and fury.
By now, the three of them had finally realized that Huang Xiaolong was no lamb waiting to be slaughtered, but a ferocious tiger!
Upon hearing that the Devil Palace’s old man was still asking who he was in this kind of situation, Huang Xiaolong shook his head. He strode towards the same mid-Ninth Order Venerable old man. This was his other target.
“The three of us should join hands and kill him! He’s merely a mid-Sixth Order Venerable, I don’t believe his battle power is strong enough to battle the three of us!” The Devil Palace’s mid-Ninth Order Venerable expert roared.
The four exchanged a tacit glance, and attacked simultaneously. Their bodies turned into three groups of sevilisht green fog, floating erratically in the air, becoming one with the surrounding space.
This was a kind of combination formation from the Devil Palace. With their combined strengths, this combination formation could raise their strengths by half.
Huang Xiaolong didn’t try to dodge the three old men’s attacks, and they rejoiced when their palm strikes landed accurately on Huang Xiaolong. But in the next second, they sensed a robust golden Buddha's energy rushing out from Huang Xiaolong's body.
The golden Buddha's energy was the Devil Palace's disciples' nightmare.
The three old men screamed as their bodies were repelled backward, and they fell tumbling on the floor. Their palms had been burnt black as charcoal, emitting smoke.
“You—!” The three yelled in horror, “How is this possible!”
Huang Xiaolong was clearly a mere mid-Sixth Order Venerable whereas the three of them were Ninth Order Venerables. With their strengths amplified by the combination formation,they still failed to resist the blow of Huang Xiaolong’s single attack!
Moreover, Huang Xiaolong’s defense was so terrifyingly strong!
In their opinions, the majority of Holy Heavens’ inner disciples did not have this startling degree of battle prowess and defenses.
Huang Xiaolong blurred in a flicker, arriving almost instantaneously in front of the mid-Ninth Order Venerable. His punch directly pierced a hole through the old man’s chest, and then, Huang Xiaolong devoured the old man’s saint attributes as he had done with the previous one.
The two remaining Devil Palace’s experts watched with horror and spun around to escape. But they had barely reached the edge of the courtyard when two streaks of blade lights flashed by. Their bodies fell to the ground from midair, decapitated.
After devouring the mid-Ninth Order Venerable’s saint attributes, Huang Xiaolong summoned the lightning bead out as he approached the two corpses. The lightning bead’s lightning power bombarded the corpses until nothing was left.
After Huang Xiaolong dealt with the four corpses, Huang Xiaolong disappeared from the courtyard with the Rainbow Phoenix.
Huang Xiaolong stayed in the Profound City for a month, purchasing the materials listed on his tasks during the day, and at night, he hunted Devil Palace’s experts on his list.
Though the number of Devil Palace’s disciples Huang Xiaolong had hunted were on the lower side, his three complete dao saint godheads’ attributes still improved slightly compared to a month back, and his cultivation speed increased as well.
But after a month in the Profound City, Huang Xiaolong noticed a strange phenomenon. There seemed to be more and more experts arriving in the Profound City….
