C118 (2/2)

The black gas pounced onto the barrier, covering it. There was an unending sizzling sound as the barrier continuously flickered. However, it became dimmer and dimmer, and within the time it took for an incense stick to burn, more than half of it was corroded.

”What is Qiu Hong's cultivation level?” Looking at Qiu Xuan, I asked solemnly.

”A demonic cultivator is just an immortal cultivator's mutation. Right now, he's just a fake.”

”Fake day!” I felt my heart tremble. No wonder demonic cultivators can't tolerate such powerful techniques. Who would cultivate such a long immortal path?

”How do you know so much?”

”I don't know much, just what I need to know. Your path is still long, and you have time to understand it all.”

Qiu Xuan's tone made me feel a bit uncomfortable. It was like an adult was teaching a child, but I have to admit that what he said was the truth. However, his tone made it seem as if he didn't have long to live.

The barrier dissipated in the end, and the black mist condensed into Qiu Hong. He turned his head to look at Qiu Xuan, then surveyed his surroundings. After hesitating for a moment, he still ran over to follow Qiu Xuan.

With the barrier broken, Qiu Xuan slowly walked towards the Third Peak's Main Hall. Qiu Hong and I followed behind him. When the crowd saw that we had entered, they followed him in.

Qiu Xuan is someone who has promised to ensure that he is safe and sound. At this critical juncture, the moment I make a move on Qiu Hong, the people who are dissatisfied with Qiu Xuan will definitely stand up for me. By then, Qiu Xuan's arrogance will very likely be able to kill each other before he can kill the enemy. I am not willing to destroy all my plans just because of Qiu Hong, not to mention I do not have the confidence to defeat Qiu Xuan.

However, after taking a few steps, I secretly separated a wisp of soul fragments and silently snuck into Qiu Hong's soul. Before, when the black fog surrounded me and I couldn't find Qiu Hong's fate soul, the soul vibrations were useless against it. But now that he is by my side, if I want to sneak into his fate soul, it will be a piece of cake.

After entering the Third Peak, Ling Kong and Ling Xuan, who were standing right in front of us, didn't panic or get ready for battle. Instead, they were leisurely playing chess, as if they didn't care about our arrival at all.

Qiu Xuan just stood there watching as they played. His face was ice-cold and without any color. Qiu Hong was naturally gnashing his teeth in anger at Qiu Xuan for not moving. Unfortunately, Qiu Xuan did not make a move, and he did not dare to make a move either.

The Sect Leader, Yuan Xu, was sitting on a chair with empty eyes and a lifeless look in his eyes. Beside him was a dead body. It was Yuan Dao's corpse.

”Hahaha, I won this game after all!”

Ling Xuan laughed loudly, as if he was extremely happy.

At this moment, Qiu Xuan moved. He slowly stepped forwards, and with a flick of his fingers, a chess piece appeared. It wasn't black and white, but rather silver, shimmering with a cold light.

Qiu Xuan slowly placed the chess pieces on the board. Qiu Xi and Ling Xuan did not stop him and looked at him with interest.

The moment the silver chess piece landed, it released a powerful sword energy. All of the chess pieces on the board were instantly turned to dust. Only one was left, occupying the center of the board.

”You lost.”

Qiu Xuan calmly spoke as he glanced at Ling Xuan, before turning his gaze onto Ling Kong.

”Qiu Xi, are you still pretending?”

”Pretend!” Why not pretend! This game of chess has not finished yet! ”

When he finished, there was a loud bang. The whole Third Peak shook a few times. Under the moonlight, a black shadow gradually appeared above everyone's head, growing bigger and bigger. Everyone looked up and couldn't help but exclaim.

It was the summit of the third mountain, the mountain peak. It was actually descending here!

Qiu Xi and Ling Xuan had already disappeared. Qiu Xuan's expression was grave as he retreated a step. Everyone else had already reacted and quickly left the mountain!

Boom!

The mountain peak came into contact with the peak of the mountain, and they were in perfect harmony. At this moment, this was the complete third summit!

”Who dares to cause trouble at my Sky Sect!”

A vast and imposing voice resounded. It was unknown where it came from!

The crowd was in an uproar again. They looked around, guessing the origin of this unknown voice.

But, did he still need to guess?

The Patriarch of the Sky Sect!

A huge figure that was over a hundred feet tall slowly appeared at the top of the mountain. That figure was glaring furiously with a white beard fluttering in the wind.

The shadow gradually shrank, but its aura didn't weaken in the slightest. A slightly fat old man slowly walked out from the top of the mountain, looking exactly the same as the shadow.

”I'm the twenty-fifth generation Sect Leader of the Sky Sect, Xuan Daozi. Who wants to destroy my Sky Sect?”

Ling Xuan hurriedly stepped forward and replied, ”Ancestor, it was the White Jade Sect, Mountain God Sect, Sword Sect, and White Fox Justices who destroyed more than half of our Sky Sect's foundation. The Sect Leader died in their hands.”

”Sword Sect?” Xuan Daozi frowned, apparently unaware of this.

”Ancestor, the sword faction won't be established for more than a few decades.”

”Humph, they are just a bunch of small fries. Today, all of you should stay behind!”

”Arrogant!”

Qiu Xuan coldly stated, and upon seeing Xuan Daozi, he showed no fear. ”You're heavily injured, yet you still dare to show off?”

I heard that half of the meridians in Xuan Daozi's body were broken, and they seemed to be spreading out. However, there were several strands of spiritual energy in his body that were similar to seals, barely able to suppress his injuries. My soul piece saw that Xuan Daozi's soul piece only has his left eye, but his left leg and his left hand are almost half gone!

With his fleshly body reduced by half, even his Fate Soul had been restored by hundreds of thousands of years. He still looked the same. Just how much injury had Xuan Daozi suffered in the past!?

Xuan Daozi's expression changed when he heard Qiu Xuan's description of his situation. However, he recovered very quickly and shouted, ”Although this old man is heavily injured, annihilating him is more than enough!”

”Alright!” Qiu Xuan's ice-cold eyes stared straight at Xuan Daozi.

”I will use my sword to break your palm!”
