32 Xian Cheng Secret Sorrow (Seeking Recommendation Votes!)

  In the dark, Zheng Zicheng rode his horse across the Blackwater Prairie for a long time, far away from the small forest before slowly stopping. He applied hemostatic medicine to his left hand and bandaged the wound with a tourniquet, gritting his teeth through the heart-wrenching pain of having lost an arm.

  "Ye Chen, I will definitely come back and kill you! And Yan Han, just wait and see!"

  Zheng Zicheng's eyes were filled with boundless hatred.

  Lost an arm, lost a lot of Qi and blood, the cultivation of the ninth layer of the Refining Body period will undoubtedly drop significantly, and the swordsmanship will also be affected. Must switch from right-handed to left-handed swordsmanship. Healing and practicing swordsmanship both require a lot of time.

  Zheng Zicheng bandaged his wound, lost a lot of blood and looked extremely exhausted.

  "We must find a place to treat internal injuries. If we delay treatment for too long, I'm afraid it will lead to permanent damage to our cultivation!"

  Zheng Zicheng bore a deep grudge in his heart and, suppressing the intense fatigue that followed his loss of blood, hastened towards a distant place.

  He fled in the direction of Ningguo, not Wuguo. He did not give up his pursuit of Wu Lingxiang and her four companions.

  "Wu Ling Xiang and his group are heading towards Tian Yun Xian Yuan City. After leaving Hei Shui Yuan, their whereabouts were unpredictable, with many roads to take, making it difficult to pursue them... However, to reach Tian Yun Xian Yuan City, they will have to travel for three months, passing through Zhao Yue Country. I'll go to Zhao Yue Country and intercept them at the last place they must pass! Ye Chen and Yan Han both broke through the seventh layer of Lian Ti period, with Ye Chen close to breaking through the eighth layer. It seems I need to think of another way to deal with these two."

  Zheng Zicheng whispered, "This matter is of great importance. I must write a letter and send it by carrier pigeon to the Wu Kingdom, to inform Master about all this and see if Master has any way to stop them from entering the Tianyun Xianyuan Castle. As long as they can't enter the Tianyun Xianyuan Castle, they won't be able to reach the Jinding Xianmen!"

  However, before all this, he had to find a safe place to recover from his injuries first.

  "Who wants it?"

  Ye Chen pointed at the Blood Essence Ring on his severed arm and said to the other three, "This Blood Essence Ring on my severed arm was indeed cut off by my knife aura, but it is also the result of everyone's combined efforts and desperate fighting. I don't want to take it all for myself without asking."

  Han Leng thought for a moment, slowly shaking his head. "The only effect of this thing is to prolong the flow of Qi and blood, which can increase it by nearly 10%. However, it has no auxiliary effect on tempering the body or cultivating martial arts itself. I still have to cultivate and break through to the ninth layer of the Refining Body stage. Moreover, there's Zheng Zicheng's Qi and blood inside, which is also very troublesome to get rid of."

  "That severed arm was cut off by you, so you keep this Blood Jade Ring. When we arrive at our destination, you can sell it and exchange it for other things."

  The little princess said.

  She had changed into a new red dress from the spare clothes she was carrying, and regained her composure. Moreover, it was already very late, and nothing embarrassing could be seen.

  "After arriving at the place, sell it?"

  Ye Chen was sulking. But since Wu Xiaogongzhu said so, he jumped off the horse and took down the Blood Soul Ring, putting it in his pocket.

  "Right."

  The young princess puckered her lips and said, "I didn't know who was the traitor and enemy of Wu State before. In order to keep our journey a secret, I have not revealed our destination so far. Since Zheng Zicheng is chasing us this time, he must be one of the traitors of Wu State. You three have seriously injured him, I believe you are not in cahoots with the traitors inside Wu State, so it doesn't matter if I reveal it to you now."

  "Our destination for this trip is to go to Tianyun Xianyuan City!"

  The little princess Wu paused for a moment and said.

  "Tianyun Xianyuan City?!"

  Yan Han was shocked, his heart racing with excitement, "I've heard our family elders mention that within the borders of Yunzhou, there's a mysterious Xianyuan City, located at the border of Da Guo Zhao Yue Country, where many cultivators from various countries in Yunzhou reside! However, no one in the world knows exactly where this Xian city is, nor has anyone ever entered it. Could it be... Tianwu Xianyuan City?"

  Ye Chen and Wei Xuan Yu both showed incredible surprise. The Immortal Fate City was an unimaginable existence for them.

  "Not bad. Many cultivators in Yunzhou are gathered in Tianyun Xianyuan City, and Tianyun Xianyuan City is the only way to reach the nine major immortal sects. My Wu family has a branch in Jinding Xianmen. I need to go to Tianyun Xianyuan City first, then pass through Tianyun Xian City to reach Jinding Xianmen, ask to see the ancestor of the Wu family of the immortal sect, and ask them to help resolve the difficulties of Wuguo."

  The princess nodded and said, "From the Wu State to the Zhao Yue State, we have to go through more than a dozen large and small countries along the way, and finally arrive at the Tian Yun Xian Yuan City. The journey will take about three months. We change our route along the way, even if there are many assassins, it's hard for them to chase and kill us."

  Four people took advantage of the dark night, riding horses across hundreds of miles of Blackwater Prairie, entering the enemy's Ningguo territory. Traveling in enemy territory was undoubtedly very dangerous. Along the way, they could only hide during the day and travel at night, avoiding drawing any attention, and it wasn't until ten days later that they left Ningguo.

  Leaving Ningguo, in a more distant country, they had no malicious intentions towards Wuguo. Rushing on the road during the day was also fine. When passing through towns, the four of them would stay at an inn, buy dry rations and feed their horses with high-quality horse feed.

  If they missed the town, they would pitch a tent and camp in the mountains or wilderness. For four late-stage Body Refining warriors, safety was not an issue; if any bandits with poor eyesight came looking for them, it would only mean death at their blades.

  Three months on the road, in the blink of an eye.

  The four of them were getting closer and closer to Zhao Yue Country.

  On this day, the four of them found a place by the roadside in the mountains to rest temporarily and let their horses recover.

  Ye Chen took a pill of Blood Bat Grass, seized the time to meditate and refine himself. Under the powerful stimulation of the medicinal power of Blood Bat Grass, the marrow inside his bones throughout his body had transformed the original Qi and blood into Qi and blood essence. The Qi in his meridians was even more vigorous and reached an extremely high level.

  His heart beats strong and powerful, with the surge of vital energy, his physique continues to strengthen, his tendons and bones solidify, his muscles condense, and his arm strength increases to 900 catties, gradually approaching the peak limit that a cultivator in the Refining Body stage can reach.

  "These three months, I've used up all the jade pendants and jade stones I got from Town Far Guan to cultivate nine-grade Blood Python Grass. Taking it daily, tempering my body and cultivating my essence. A month ago, I broke through the eighth layer of the Refining Body Phase, and today I finally entered the ninth layer!"

  Ye Chen's eyes flashed with the sharp essence of a 9th-level Body Refining martial artist.

  "I'll give it a try! The sixth move of 'Tiger Leaping Knife Technique' - Whirlwind Slash, how's its power!"

  Ye Chen suddenly stood up and drew out the precious sword from his waist.

  He swung his sword and suddenly spun around his body, with the treasured sword tracing a complete arc.

  Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh......!

  Nine swift and fierce knife auras burst forth from the treasured blade, exploding violently as they charged towards the surroundings within a radius of ten feet!

  The leaves fell to the ground, and the treasured sword in his hand hummed with a thrilling sound, as if cheering and jumping for joy. The surrounding woods were like withered and rotten ones, leaving behind deep gashes of nearly ten inches on each tree trunk. Smaller trees were cut into two segments directly. A circle of trees within a radius of about one zhang was swept clean. This set of swordsmanship showcased its powerful might in the simplest and most ferocious way.

  "The high-level sword technique 'Whirlwind Slash', with the power of a 9th-layer Body Refining stage... If he masters this technique, even in the midst of thousands of soldiers and horses, no one will be able to trap him! If he were to lead an army into battle, he would undoubtedly be a fierce general. Unfortunately, he doesn't seem to have much interest in leading troops, instead focusing solely on his cultivation!"

  Wu Xiaogongzhu sat not far away, watching this scene with shock.

  "Whirlwind Slash, Ye Chen finally mastered the last move of 'Tiger Leaping Knife Technique', breaking through the final obstacle and entering the ranks of a national-level knife master. Still can't catch up to him!"

  Yan Han was practicing his knife skills, and he let out a faint sigh in his heart, but soon recovered his calmness and continued to practice his knife skills one move at a time. Although there was a gap in their cultivation, his foundation in knife skills was stronger than Ye Chen's.

  In the past three months of rushing, apart from Ye Chen's rapid progress, Wu Xiaogong and Yan Han were in the eighth layer of the Refining Body period, close to but not yet beyond the eighth layer. Wei Xiangyu had recently broken through the seventh layer of the Refining Body period and produced internal energy.

  The four of them can be said to have cultivated at a fairly rapid pace.
