Volume 1: Wudao Xiantian Chapter 27: Pursuit and Slaughter

  Ye Xue spat out a mouthful of turbid air, the true energy in his body was unbroken and continuously repairing the damage to his body. The fierce battle with Shan Huo had caused great harm to his body, and for a moment, his injuries could not be restored.

  Ye Xue walked towards the two large copper balls, thinking to himself: "What a pity, I wasn't able to kill that Mountain Fire Beast... This demon beast's muscles and bones are really powerful, born with copper skin and iron bones, impervious to swords and knives, almost equivalent to a master who has cultivated his hard skills to the Innate Realm! To want to kill it, unless one's cultivation reaches the Innate Realm of Martial Arts, or possesses a treasure sword that can cut through iron like mud!"

  However, Ye Xu was not without gain. First, his cultivation broke through and entered the seventh heavy realm, equivalent to the power of someone in the eighth heavy realm!

  This breakthrough was made possible by the pressure from the 9th rank demonic beast, Shan Huo Jie. Without this fierce battle, he would have needed at least ten more days of bitter cultivation to reach the 7th level.

  The second biggest gain is these two large brass balls in front of me.

  These two large copper balls withstood his repeated heavy blows and never shattered, showing that their quality far exceeded that of ordinary brass!

  "If it were sold, it should be worth several hundred taels of silver, but unfortunately, it's too heavy to carry away..."

  Ye Xuhui pondered in his heart, picked up the iron chain, and felt a cold chill spreading from the chain to his palm, making him shiver involuntarily, freezing his blood almost to a standstill!

  Ye Xuan suppressed the urge to throw away the iron chains, his heart shocked: "What kind of mineral are these two iron chains made of? How can they be so cold? Could it be..."

  He looked carefully and saw that the two iron chains were emitting a cold aura, the part that fell to the ground had even frozen the wild grass, and a layer of white frost covered the ground.

  "Is it Cold Iron?"

  Ye Xuhui's heart was racing wildly, and the Cold Iron was also a mineral for forging Wu Bao, its quality was even better than refined iron, extremely precious, its value compared to two large copper balls, couldn't be mentioned on the same day!

  The mineral Han Tie, even if the three major families' mines were combined, would produce less than fifty catties of Han Tie per year!

  That mountain fire spirit somehow obtained over 200 catties of cold iron, forged it into an iron chain, and locked up two large copper balls, which ended up being cheaper for him.

  The value of these two iron chains alone far surpasses that of a ninth-grade demon beast!

  Ye Xue's eyes sparkled with a hint of sharpness, and he whispered: "Offer these two iron chains to the family, and we'll definitely get the chance to enter the Witch Library and choose one witchcraft! This way, I can take a look at whether there's a complete version of the Tianming Refining Body Technique in the library!"

  He was abandoned and rebuilt the Tianming Refining Body Technique, discovering that this technique had undergone new changes. As his cultivation level increased, he felt the power of this technique more and more, and what he cultivated was not a complete technique.

  If he could obtain the complete Heart Method, Ye Xuan dared to guarantee that his Cangming True Qi would undergo a qualitative leap!

  It's not worth exchanging a set of Cold Iron Chains for a martial art technique, but if you can exchange it for a spell, then it's a great bargain!

  "There are many people who don't mean well towards me, I can't stay here for long!"

  Ye Xun's expression changed slightly, he tilted his ear and faintly heard the clear sound of horseshoes coming from afar, followed by several strands of faint but palpable murderous aura.

  Among them, four breaths were relatively weak and small, while the other breath was extremely powerful, like a vast ocean, deep and immeasurable, giving him an extremely dangerous feeling!

  "A congenital master! Could it be Ye Lai?"

  Ye Xuan closed his eyes and carefully caught Ye Li's breath.

  Suddenly, another direction was a burst of murderous aura rising to the sky. The momentum that this person suddenly revealed was completely different from Ye Li, like a giant python, crawling in the fierce fire, waiting for an opportunity to pounce and devour people, extremely terrifying!

  I'm afraid this person's cultivation has already entered the realm of Wudao Xiantian!

  "The Fang family's external gate is absolutely learned, the Red Python Blazing Fire Technique! To cultivate the Red Python Blazing Fire Technique to the Xiantian realm, it should be a strong one among the Fang family's slaves. It seems that the matter of me killing Fang Dang has already been known by Fang Zhongshan!"

  Ye Xuhong was shocked, and then a surge of heroic spirit arose: "There are still many people who want to kill me, and they've even dispatched two great martial arts masters! With Gan Caibao here, I can fight if I want, or leave if I want. This is an opportunity for me to hone my skills! However, since I'm not fully recovered from my injuries, I'll focus on healing first!"

  Ye Li and Fang's master are getting closer to this place, Ye Xu no longer hesitates, immediately picks up the two large copper balls and flips over to jump onto Gan Chai Jiao's back.

  The two large copper balls, together with the cold iron chain and Ye Xuan himself, weighed over 2,300 pounds, but Gan Chai seemed to feel no weight at all, lightly stepping on his hooves, running swiftly towards the depths of Hei Zuiling.

  Ye Xue left soon after, and Ye Bin Ye Li and four others finally arrived. Seeing the corpses all over the ground, several people felt a chill in their hearts. Ye Xin exclaimed: "How did so many people die? Did they encounter a tenth-tier demon beast?"

  Ye Li flipped over and dismounted, carefully examining the scene before shaking his head and saying: "There are signs of a fierce battle here, it should be a 9th rank demonic beast! If it were a 10th rank demonic beast, these people wouldn't even dare to make a move - just the aura emitted by a 10th rank demonic beast would be enough to crush them!"

  A tenth-grade demonic beast is equivalent to a pre-heavenly master, almost like a demon, with an aura of demonic energy emanating from its body. Its powerful momentum is in no way inferior to that of a pre-heavenly master!

  Other small family disciples in Liuzhou, even if they cultivate to the sixth or seventh realm, their strength is only equivalent to Ye Jian's level. When encountering a tenth-level demon beast, they don't even have the chance to make a move and will be crushed by the demonic energy!

  "Ye Xu, this kid, actually wasn't killed by this 9th rank demon beast, he's really lucky!" Ye Feng said disappointedly, not finding Ye Xu's corpse.

  Ye Bin urged his horse forward and said resolutely, "He was able to escape from the nine-level demon beast's hands, but he must have suffered extremely severe injuries. Let's chase after him!"

  A group of people galloped their horses, rushing into the depths of Hei Wu Ling.

  Ye Li and others had just left when Fang He arrived.

  Only saw this white-haired old man in red clothes and a large gown, fluttering and floating, flying and jumping to come, the speed was not inferior to that of a fierce horse.

  His innate aura burst forth, his intense true energy scorching the air into distortion, emitting a series of explosive crackles. Wherever he went, even the sturdy grass on the ground was scorched yellow!

  Fang He swiftly circled the area where Ye Xu and Shan Huo Jiao had clashed, paused briefly, then chased after the direction Ye Xu had left in. With a cold hum, he said in a low voice, "Ye Shao Bao, I didn't think you'd recover so quickly, managing to escape with your life from the hands of a 9th rank demonic beast. You truly live up to being the genius of the Ye Manor! However, you killed Young Master, and the East House wants you dead. You absolutely won't be able to leave Black Piao Ridge alive!"

  Ye Lifang and others followed the trail left by Gan Chaijiao, chasing from morning to sunset, getting more and more anxious.

  Ye Xiu's mount ran extremely fast and changed direction unpredictably, making it impossible for anyone to catch up with him.

  "If that kid goes any further forward, he'll be leaving Hei Wu Ridge and entering the depths of Bai Man Mountain!"

  Ye Li's hatred made his teeth itch, and he shouted in anger: "In the depths of Bai Man Mountain, even three major families don't have the power to explore, this kid dares to enter there, it's a dead end!"

  "Steward, Ye Xu's horse has been found!" Ye Bin exclaimed excitedly.

  Ye Lide's spirit was shaken, and he hastily looked over to see a mixed-breed horse with dry and thin fur on the lawn not far in front of him, tearing apart the corpse of a demonic beast with its mouth open wide, eating the flesh with extreme ferocity, exactly like a carnivorous animal!

  The horse's back is empty and bare, without a trace of Ye Xu.

  Ye Xins heart skipped a beat, and he exclaimed: "That little brat didnt ride the horse at all, but got off and walked to another place, letting us foolishly follow this broken horse for over a hundred miles!"

  "This damn horse! It's got us running around like headless chickens behind its arse!"

  Ye Feng angrily shouted, urging his horse to rush towards Gan Chai Jiao. With a murderous intent in his heart, he drew out his treasured sword and slashed down at Gan Chai Jiao's neck!

  Ye's face changed slightly as he exclaimed: "Young master, be careful!"

  As soon as the words fell, Gan Chai's horse suddenly let out a loud neigh, raised its two huge hind hooves and kicked them with a loud bang, kicking Ye Feng's chest and his horse's forehead, sending both the man and the horse flying!

  Ye Feng had just landed when he suddenly clutched his chest, turned pale, spat out a mouthful of blood, and sat down on the ground with a soft thud, his face devoid of any color.

  This kick from Gān Chái Jiǎo broke six or seven of his ribs!

  His mount's forehead was kicked in with a big hole, and its body fell several meters away, motionless.

  Ye Bin and others were shocked, Ye Feng was at least a master who had cultivated the Tianming Body Refining Technique to the seventh level, but he was severely injured by this broken horse with just one glance!

  "Looking for death!"

  Ye Li burst into a rage, sprang to his feet and pounced on Gan Chai Jiao, but that piebald horse paid no attention to him, turned around and ran away, swift as a fleeting light, in the blink of an eye it had run out of sight.

  Ye Li's hands and feet trembled with rage, but he could do nothing about it. He had no choice but to turn back and use his own true energy to suppress Ye Feng's injuries.

  Ye Feng is the son of Ye Si Dao, the Grand Steward of the Imperial Household Department. If anything were to happen to him, Ye Li would definitely end up with only one outcome - death!

  "What the hell has Ye Xu gone to?" He couldn't help but feel a sense of powerless defeat in his heart. Since entering Bai Miao Mountain, Ye Xu had been swimming with the current, while he himself was hitting a wall everywhere, and the face of the innate strong was completely lost!

  "Don't let me see you again, or I'll chop you into a thousand pieces!" Ye Li's face twisted in a fierce scowl.
