Ghost King Talisman
"Fine, now that it's out in the open, don't blame me for acting cruel!" The tall man infused his true qi into his long sword and glared sharply at Su Zhaoyue, while smirking sardonically, "The man must die, and if the woman wishes to take care of me well, perhaps I will be pleased and let you go!"
... Prioritizing woman and looking down on man?
Can this be tolerated?
Su Zhan's face turned cold and he immediately rushed out.
Su Zhaoyue was shocked and immediately said, "Su Zhan be careful, this person is-"
"Swish!"
The sound of the sword slicing through the air was heard immediately.
A bloody wound appeared on the large man's neck, followed by a fresh burst of blood that melted the ice on his neck.
The large body fell hard!
Until his death, his face still looked surprised.
It seems that he never thought that he would be killed in an instant by a cultivator in the Qi Sea Realm.
"Who is he?"
After killing the large man, Su Zhan finally turned around and asked Su Zhaoyue.
"He..."
Su Zhaoyue was slightly confused and didn't know how to express herself.
After a while, she finally realized and said with a bitter smile, "This person is a notorious criminal in the Liang Province, a cultivator from the evil path. The number of cultivators who have died in his hands may have reached eight or even ten thousand, including those who have reached the Yuan Condensation Realm!"
"Supposedly, his strength is very strong and has reached the Peak of Yuan Condensation!"
"Of course, rumors like that cannot be believed," said Su Zhan as he looked at the corpse of the large man with a slight annoyance.
Peak Yuan Condensation Realm? This person is very weak!
It would take at least several sword strikes to kill him if he really was at the Peak of Yuan Condensation, right?
Su Zhan felt a little curious after taking the storage ring on the large man's finger. Even the lowest storage ring was a spiritual artifact. Although he was from a wealthy family, he had never owned such an item before.
Now that he had obtained it for the first time, he was naturally curious. He infused his Qi into the storage ring and felt a slight change in the space above the ring. Then, he aimed the sword in his hand at the storage ring and the sword immediately entered the empty space inside the ring. After that, he released his hand and the sword went straight into the ring.
After placing the big spiritual sword belonging to the big man into the storage ring, Su Zhan checked the contents of the ring and took out his long sword before continuing his journey with Su Zhaoyue.
A day later, the two arrived at the entrance of a valley.
"This is the Extreme Yang Valley, and also my destination," said Su Zhaoyue, looking at the entrance of the valley with a little excitement. "Inside the Extreme Yang Valley, there are several Ziyang flowers growing, which are spiritual plants that can enhance cultivation. Let's go in and get them quickly!"
"Just a few spiritual herbs that can enhance cultivation?" Su Zhan frowned slightly, feeling that the benefits of this trip were too small.
As the two were about to enter the Extreme Yang Valley, someone came.
"Oh? Two trash?" Yang Tiangui stood on the other side of the valley entrance, looking somewhat surprised.
"You two trash in the Qi Sea Realm can actually survive in the ruins for more than a day. It seems that your luck is really good, and you haven't even encountered any monsters or other cultivators yet!"
"Didn't we just meet you?" Su Zhan glanced at Yang Tiangui and said lightly.
"Hahaha! So, it seems like your luck is starting to worsen!"
The true Qi of Yang Tiangui suddenly erupted, and he sneered, "Two pieces of trash in the Qi Sea Realm, do you also want to take the Ziyang Flower in the Extreme Yang Valley? Even if I don't move, the monster guarding the flower will surely devour you both!"
"Meeting me at least can make your death less painful!"
As soon as he spoke, Yang Tiangui stepped forward.
He displayed a movement technique, dragging a long shadow, and attacked Su Zhan.
"Xuan-level movement technique!"
Su Zhan's gaze slightly narrowed, neither avoiding nor dodging, and also moving towards Yang Tiangui.
Using the Wind Step technique, Su Zhan's speed was not slower than Yang Tiangui's!
Moreover, Yang Tiangui's Xuan-level movement technique was only trained to the introductory level, while Su Zhan's Wind Step technique had been trained to the peak!
Furthermore, he had cultivated his intention from the technique, and was able to move in harmony with the wind!
Of course, the meaning of the Wind Step technique was not as clear as the meaning of the sword, and ordinary people would have difficulty distinguishing it.
"Interesting!"
Seeing that Su Zhan's speed was not inferior to his own, Yang Tiangui's lips curved slightly.
It seemed that this person also had a special treasure or had obtained a great opportunity.
If his opponent was a cultivator in the ordinary Yuan Condensation Realm, he would surely be defeated by this person, but unfortunately, his opponent was him, Yang Tiangui!
"Your opportunity, your treasure, everything will be mine today!"
Yang Tiangui sneered in his heart, and the long sword at his waist suddenly came out of its scabbard!
"Sword Imitation Technique!"
This was a low-grade Xuan sword technique and he had trained it to the introductory level, and when he swung his sword, a semi-transparent ripple appeared in front of him.
It was the strong sword aura of the Sword Imitation Technique!
Su Zhan also used the Tianhan Sword Technique.
At the same time, he activated the Diamond Body technique that he had trained to the peak, and a layer of golden light appeared on his body.
Underneath that golden light, there was a gentle white light like jade.
It was the manifestation of the power of the Perfection from Jade Cold Art!
"Sword Intent! How is this possible!"
Yang Tiangui's eyes widened in surprise.
Although reaching the Yuan Condensation Realm was the most basic condition for understanding sword intent, there was a difference between meeting the requirements and fully understanding it.
Even Yang Tiangui, as the best talent in Liang Province, had only touched the surface of Sword Intent and had not truly mastered it. However, now in front of him, a cultivator who had just entered the Qi Sea Realm had understood Sword Intent. This made it difficult for him to accept.
"But what does Sword Intent matter when there is a gap in our strength? Die for me!"
Swords clashed as Su Zhan and Yang Tiangui faced off.
Feeling the terrifying power contained within Su Zhan's sword, Yang Tiangui's face changed dramatically.
In the next moment, his body was thrown backwards, flying several meters until he managed to regain his balance. His clothing was torn, revealing the silver armor underneath. His face was pale, and his hand pressed against his chest, as if he was holding back blood.
"Is this the best genius in Liang Province? Why are you so weak?" Su Zhan was somewhat surprised.
He thought they would fight fiercely, but he never thought that with a single attack, Yang Tiangui would be knocked back.
"You!"
His heart filled with anger, his body shaking, and he almost vomited blood.
"You're looking for death!" Yang Tiangui shouted, pulling out a black talisman paper from his pocket and crushing it tightly.
"Bom!"
The talisman then exploded with a loud noise, releasing a large black light!
The black light then gathered and formed a monster that stood ten meters high with sharp teeth and was very scary!
The monster released black rays from both of its eyes, covering Su Zhan and Su Zhaoyue. In an instant, the sky became dark, and many terrifying ghosts appeared around them, screaming and running towards them.
"Hahaha! Under the influence of the Ghost King Talisman, I want to see how you fight back!" Yang Tiangui laughed wickedly, but his laughter lasted only briefly and disappeared in an instant.
Seeing Su Zhan easily break free from the charm's influence, Yang Tiangui was shocked and stuttered, "How...how did you break free from the Ghost King Talisman? With your cultivation only in the Qi Sea realm, you wouldn't be able to withstand such a massive mental attack!"
The Ghost King Talisman? It sounded impressive, but it didn't seem too good!
Under the influence of the Mentality Halo, although the monsters were scary, Su Zhan was not afraid or trapped in an illusion.
Seeing Yang Tiangui's surprised expression, Su Zhan was a bit surprised and said, "Are you stupid? Do you think I would be scared by some ugly monsters moving around here and there? I'm not a kid who is easily frightened!"
"I...," Yang Tiangui held his chest, angry and disappointed. The mental attack talisman given to him by the sect master before departing was said to frighten anyone with a cultivation level below the Barrier Master realm, even those at the Peak Yuan Condensation realm needed three seconds to recover from the illusion... It was his strongest trump card on this journey.
But in Su Zhan's words, it was just "some ugly monsters moving around here and there"?
Did the sect master exaggerate or was this kid really too strong?
Yang Tiangui was truly confused and doubted his existence.
