Chapter 28: Ten Steps, One Kill

  The serene mountain peak was silent except for the occasional distant howl of a beast.

  This is a small plain, with only one small mountain peak, no trees, no weeds, bare and rare on this wild island.

  Xiao Gu sat quietly on the ground.

  This was his chosen place of seclusion, and it was unlikely that anyone would find him here within a certain period of time. However, due to the existence of the imprint, he also did not dare to guarantee how long he could remain safe.

  At this time, it was just the time when the sun was rising, and the colorful clouds were infinite, dyeing the sky and earth with a hazy color. Xiao Gu climbed high and looked far away, with a sense of overlooking all the mountains. In this newly born morning, Xiao Gu couldn't help but throw his head back and let out a loud roar.

  At the same time, a purple light burst forth into the sky, and Xiao Gu's aura began to stir.

  "Unexpectedly, after three days of bitter struggle, nothing was gained. One morning, with a relaxed mind, I suddenly made progress. Indeed, the Tao is natural!" Xiao Gu muttered to himself.

  Rumbling, Xiao Gu's physical body began to shake violently, the thunderous sound making people lose color, a purple glow shocking the sky, as if a great river was surging, the sound of galloping horses made Xiao Gu's entire person tremble, fortunately he had already experienced such strange phenomena, otherwise he would have thought he had gone mad.

  Ka ka ka, the rocks under Xiao Gu began to shatter, and a vast aura burst out from his frail body, rising steadily.

  Old Wang Ba was radiant, on the one hand stealing the purple energy of Xiao Gu's cultivation, while his small eyes were rolling around, wondering what kind of evil plan he was thinking of again.

  Heaven and earth's essence transformed into a whirlpool, pouring into Xiao Gu's body, constantly tempering his peerless treasure body. Layer after layer of old skin shed away, revealing strong and powerful muscles with a hint of ancient bronze color, black hair fluttering, divine light flashing, somewhat resembling the demeanor of one who has attained the Dao.

  At this time, Xiao Gu's body was crystal clear and flawless, with not a single blemish on his entire body. His divine power surged and fluctuated, his aura shocking the heavens.

  Death! In the silent and soundless interval, a golden long sword suddenly appeared in the void and stabbed into Xiao Gu's back. Before that, there was no sign of killing intent or trail, such a move made people's hearts tremble with fear.

  Clang! Xiao Gu stretched out one hand, and with a single finger, he tapped the golden long sword. The sword snapped in two, and a black-robed figure spat out fresh blood as Xiao Gu shook him out of thin air.

  Ka Cha, Xiao Gu turned into a long rainbow, and in the blink of an eye, he twisted off the neck of this Nirvana Fourth-Order killer.

  "Come out, all of you," Xiao Gu shouted loudly. Many people had come to this place and were hiding in the dark. Xiao Gu had known about it long ago. At this moment, his senses were sharp and he could feel everything within tens of meters around him with his eyes closed, even whether an ant had twisted its neck or not was crystal clear.

  At the same time, his whole body was filled with a sense of power, and every punch he threw could produce an explosive sound. This was just the physical strength, but he had a feeling that even if a dragon were in front of him, he could still blast it with one punch.

  Of course, this was just an illusion, but those people who had been hiding before could not escape his perception.

  "Xiao Gu, today you will definitely die," The first person to appear was a disciple of the 'Yao' Emperor's Hall.

  Then, all seventeen of them appeared together.

  "Are you all here to kill me?" Xiao Gu asked with a faint smile.

  "Not bad, all of you are here to kill me. Although you are a strong master of the fifth level of Nirvana, we also have masters of the same level. With so many people, it's hard for you to fly with your wings clipped, why not just surrender?" The disciple of Yao Huang Temple shouted loudly.

  Killed. One person took action, and it was the last of the five strongest Nevan. He thought he could evade Xiao Gu's perception and suddenly took action.

  This man held a large iron rod in his hand, and his body was partially beastized, half-human and half-ape. His divine power was astonishing, and Xiao Gu clashed with him bare-handed, making a loud clanging sound.

  "What? His body is cast in bronze and iron? How can he possibly withstand Yuan Qitian's divine power, to think that he is the soul of a ancient divine ape?" Many people exclaimed.

  "Let's all work together, I don't believe he can block us all," said the Medicine Emperor Temple disciple, taking the lead and striking out first. A three-zhang giant cauldron shot up into the sky, and the others followed suit.

  In an instant, rulers, long swords, pagodas, 'jade' tripods flew about, all striking towards Xiao Gu.

  Xiao Gu used his physical strength to withstand the attack, not falling behind. With a cracking sound, Xiao Gu seized an opportunity and punched a broken gap, shattering a Buddhist staff. He jumped up, stomped one person to death with his foot, quickly broke out of the encirclement, and blocked Yuan Qitian.

  Roar!

  Yuan Qitian, transformed into a half-ape, let out an inhuman roar towards the sky, his muscles and bones moving in unison, suddenly swelling by over three feet, his fangs protruding, his golden eyes bulging, his entire body covered in half-foot-long black fur, making him appear even more enormous, the long stench of blood made Xiao Gu feel nauseous, this person had completely transformed into a terrifying giant ape.

  "What a pity, you've taken the wrong path, I'll help you end it," sighed Xiao Gu.

  Boom! The Five Elements Fist shattered the heavens and earth, sending the iron rod in Yuan Qitian's hand flying, and then heavily landed on his chest, completely shattering four or five ribs.

  However, at the same time, a long sword also cut across Xiao Gu's waist at a sharp angle.

  "Good," shouted the Medicine Emperor's disciple.

  The rest of the people also showed a joyful expression, with this one move, they would definitely be able to heavily injure Xiao Gu.

  Clang! The long sword snapped in two, and a group of people's smiling faces suddenly froze in mid-air.

  "This is impossible!" someone screamed, the flesh and blood body actually withstanding the sharp blade, not only unscathed but also shattering the long sword. If there was a huge difference in their realms, it could be understood, but the sneak attacker was clearly an existence at the peak of the three realms of Nirvana! Yet they didn't suffer even the slightest injury!

  Kill, without the strong of the five heavy Nevan, the remaining people can't stop Xiao Gu at all. These people have different intentions and cannot work together, they just want to protect themselves.

  Block! A pagoda was blown away by Xiao Gu, and then took advantage of the situation to 'pierce' its master's 'chest'.

  Ka-cha! A large knife snapped in two at the hilt and its tip flew back, pinning one person to the ground.

  Boom! Duan Bing's four shots hit their mark, and three people were seriously injured in a row. Later, they were easily beheaded by Xiao Gu.

  Ten steps kill one person, no one can stop it.

  There are no top-notch experts, and they cannot work together in harmony, so they can only face slaughter.

  "Not good, everyone has to work together, can't be separated, otherwise they will definitely be defeated one by one," The disciples of the Medicine Emperor Hall also had some skills and quickly thought of the problem.

  The remaining dozen or so people all took action, their magical instruments covering the sky. The powerful force cut down the mountain top under Xiao Gu's feet by more than a foot, and even Xiao Gu felt a mortal threat from this blow.

  Xiao Gu stepped on empty air, falling from the mountain top. He barely dodged this attack, although he suffered some shock, but managed to avoid a fatal blow.

  Ah! Suddenly, the crowd of people began to get mixed up and chaotic, and there were miserable cries heard.

  This is Yuan Qitian, who has actually become like this. Xiao Guyou stood far away and saw that Yuan Qitian, who was severely injured by Xiao Gu, had gone mad at this time. His mouth was wide open, biting off the upper half of a person's body, and then he slapped another person to death with one paw.

  Bloodshot eyes, devoid of any rationality, only the instinct to kill remained, saliva mixed with blood flowing profusely, dripping onto the ground with a steady beat, sending chills down one's spine.

  Another person was torn in half by him, bloody and terrifying.

  In the blink of an eye, four or five people died at his hands.

  Everyone dispersed and joined forces. Some people drank heavily, but in the end, they were still powerful cultivators. Even if Yuan Qitian's cruelty was shocking, they quickly recovered.

  Lost his mind, seemed to be violent, but under the neat arrangement, in just a moment, Yuan Qitian was dismembered alive. At the same time, Xiao Gu did not make a move during this period, and the remaining people could no longer pose much threat to him!

  Killing Yuan Qitian left only seven people, but after seeing Xiao Gu, he hesitated again and again, and still made a move.

  Someone displayed a terrifying divine power, striking out flames that filled the sky, turning the heavens and earth crimson red. Even the mountains and rocks on the ground melted, with fiery magma flowing, leaving Xiao Gu somewhat astonished.

  Roar! Xiao Gu struck out with the Water Fist of the Five Elements Boxing, creating a massive wave that surged forth and engulfed the sea of flames, extinguishing it and solidifying the molten lava in front of him.

  At the same time, seven weapons arrived simultaneously, sealing off Xiao Gu's surroundings from top to bottom and left to right.

  Bang, Xiao Gu didn't retreat in the slightest, he wanted to use this to test his own cultivation results. The Five Elements Fist was launched continuously, hardening against the Seven Great Divine Soldiers.

  Although he retreated repeatedly, he didn't receive even a slight injury.

  The seven divine weapons were knocked flying, and Xiao Gu also involuntarily retreated more than ten feet.

  However, the next moment, Xiao Gu suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, and a deadly aura appeared in an instant, blocking Xiao Gu's retreat.

  Inescapable!

  This blow was perfect to the extreme, at the moment when Xiao Gu was repelled, and it was when the old force was exhausted and the new force had not yet been born.

  It looks like Xiao Gu himself ran into it!

  This is a long-awaited killing move, and there is still one person hiding in the dark, even Xiao Gu has not discovered.

  One hit kill!
