Chapter 879: Clearing the Obstacles (2/2)
It was not only the Bonebrutes; the few Xing Clan members gathered around Xing Bo also had painful looks on their faces.
Bathed in golden light, they felt as if they were being slowly cut with countless invisible daggers. Soon numerous fine wounds appeared, with blood coming from them.
Their spiritual power wards had already shattered, so, as their flesh was torn open, the tainted energies found their way into their bodies.
Despair filled their faces as they looked down and saw the blood coming out of their wounds turn from fresh blood to filthy blood.
Xing Bo was the only one who was spared by the golden light, and didn’t suffer their agony.
The Bonebrute leader sensed the danger, and shouted in the outsiders’ language, “RUN!”
Upon hearing him, all of the Bonebrutes on the stone pavilion fled in different directions, completely ignoring the Xing Clan members.
“Run? Wishful thinking!” Huang Jinnan shook his head, numerous golden divine symbols appearing in the depths of his eyes, making him look even more awe-inspiring.
The light emanated by his floating golden eye grew even purer and fiercer.
Countless rays of golden light that seemed to have solidified pierced directly towards the fleeing Bonebrutes.
In the next moment, explosions like glorious fireworks took place around the stone pavilion.
Each of them was a Bonebrute that had been shone upon by the golden light and exploded, including their leader.
In just about ten breaths of time, all of the Bonebrutes died violent deaths.
As they exploded, grayish-green souls left their bodies.
Due to the special environment in this place, their discarnate souls didn’t vanish into heaven and earth right away.
Normally, after living beings died here, their discarnate souls would either be captured and devoured by evil spirits, or wander in the tainted energies and turn into evil spirits after a long process of transformation.
However, it was different this time.
The Spirit Pearl rose from Nie Tian’s hand and flew about swiftly to collect the Bonebrutes’ discarnate souls one by one.
By the time the Spirit Pearl flew back to Nie Tian, all of the Xing Clan members around Xing Bo had also been killed by the fierce light unleashed by the floating golden eye.
The Spirit Pearl then flew out again, absorbing and strengthening itself with the discarnate souls that had just left the dead Qi warriors.
All of a sudden, the Bonebrutes and human cultivators who had fought evil spirits atop this stone pavilion had all died except one person: Xing Bo.
This was only because Huang Jinnan had intentionally spared his life.
“Are you sure that you want to kill him yourself, Nie Tian?” Huang Jinnan asked one last time.
Nie Tian nodded. “I am.”
Without saying another word, Huang Jinnan sensibly backed away to a place that was dozens of meters away from them.
Then, he looked over his shoulder at the Qi warriors who had come with him, and said, “Spread out and seal this area. If that Xing Bo wants to escape, stop him. But remember not to kill him. Since Nie Tian wants to play, let’s make sure he has his fun with him.”
“Okay.” Everyone spread out to form a blockade around the stone pavilion.
Xie Wanting, Yin Yanan, and Mu Biqiong, however, stayed in place on Nie Tian’s Star Boat, and gazed at the top of the stone pavilion.
The Star Boat belonged to Nie Tian. Without him, none of them could use it.
Now that all of the Bonebrutes and his clansmen had died at Huang Jinnan’s hands, Xing Bo actually loosened up. Insanity gradually built up in his surprisingly calm eyes as he said, “You think a loser from the Domain of the Falling Stars like you can kill me in a duel? I don’t know how you managed to become friends with a Divine Son of the Five Elements Sect, but I know people like you too well. You’re the kind of garbage from the most remote and desolate places like the Domain of the Falling Stars!”
As he spoke, spiritual swords flew out of him one after another to float around him.
There were a total of twelve swords, one of which was clutched in his hand. Fierce roars could be vaguely heard from them. Clearly, they were Spirit Channeling grade treasures.
Before his secret had been brought to light, Xing Bo had ranked at the top among all the chosen ones of the Thousandsword Mountain Sect. Considering the cultivation resources he had been given, it was natural for him to hold a Spirit Channeling grade treasure or two.
One after another, the spiritual swords flew out, forming a profound spell formation.
