Chapter 734 A Dark Move
When the heretical cultivator saw him reach out to pat him, he became enraged and slashed at Ah Sheng's hand with his long curved sword.
"You bastard, you actually dared to hit me with your bare hands? Well, then let's collect some interest first."
He spoke menacingly, and slashed at Ah Sheng's palm with his curved knife.
Ah Sheng didn't retract his hand, but the muscles in his arm twitched.
Then, a faint halo appeared on his entire arm, so faint that it was almost unnoticeable unless you looked closely.
"Qiang!"
The curved sword snapped in two beneath the man's ferocious grin.
Before he could react, Ah Sheng had already slapped him away with a palm strike.
He felt as if his soul had been blasted out of his body. When he looked down, he saw that his proud body had been shattered by Ah Sheng's palm.
Moreover, his scimitar, though not a divine weapon, was still a sacred artifact, yet he managed to break it with a single blow.
Who exactly is this person?
Before he could figure it out, a scorching wave of air approached, scaring him so much that he tried to escape, but he was hit by a divine fire and instantly lost consciousness.
Zhong Ran's divine sense covered the entire area and discovered that Zhong Xiaotong and the others had gathered there.
"Ah Jin, how long has it been? You've already gathered with everyone."
Mu Jinning pulled her hand and walked outside, managing to avoid the attack waves perfectly each time.
"No, we only found my cousin and third brother before. We couldn't find the rest of them. It was because of your tribulation that they were all attracted here."
Zhong Ran narrowed her eyes slightly: "Ah Jin, since these evil forces have come to our door, let's kill them all."
The two exchanged a glance, and Mu Jinning released her hand, whispering, "Be careful."
The two darted into the crowd. At present, it is still easy to distinguish between the righteous and the evil. Even though some righteous people also like to wear black, their auras are different.
The spiritual energy of demonic cultivators is black, and this remains unchanged, unless the opponent also has dual spiritual roots, which can be concealed.
But no matter how hard he tried to hide it, he couldn't hide it from Zhong Ran.
The evil path is relatively easier to identify; they all possess an extremely heavy aura of malevolence and are often bloodthirsty and ruthless.
The cultivators who enter the ancient battlefield are not limited to the younger generation; some elders also enter here to train after encountering bottlenecks.
The previous tribulation lightning naturally attracted those powerful figures.
Upon seeing that it was Zhong Ran, they did not hesitate to take advantage of the chaos to make their move.
Zhong Ran's growth was too fast, putting immense pressure on both the demonic and evil paths.
Even the righteous path has many geniuses who envy, are jealous of, and hate them, but being the righteous path, they dare not show their jealousy.
However, they can still secretly collude with evil forces, either by observing from the sidelines or by taking drastic measures.
In such chaotic battles, it's rare to unleash any powerful moves; the fighting relies mainly on close-quarters combat and spiritual techniques.
Supernatural powers are too destructive and are generally not used on battlefields like this.
Zhong Ran was entangled by an old man, who was a Nascent Soul Realm expert and wanted to take the opportunity to kill Zhong Ran.
"Old ghost, your opponent is an old woman." Lou Ying appeared out of nowhere and blocked the old man's attack.
"Miss, you just go to your battlefield, I'll take care of this old ghost."
It had been more than half a year since we last saw each other, and seeing each other again now felt especially heartwarming.
Before Zhong Ran could speak, she flashed away and thrust her sword at a woman.
The woman was dressed in flowing white, but her attacks were extremely fierce and merciless.
She was trying to assassinate Huang Qiuyin in the chaos, but Zhong Ran saw it and slashed at her with her sword.
Sensing danger, the woman in white retreated in a disheveled state. Turning her head, she saw Zhong Ran and teleported away without a second thought.
Zhong Ran's strength was beyond her reach.
Huang Qiuyin was fighting a demonic cultivator. The demonic cultivator unleashed a black mist, which she then raised to block it with a curtain of water.
Zhong Ran thrust her sword forward, and the demonic cultivator tried to leave as soon as he saw her appear.
However, he was not as fast as Zhong Ran, but he still managed to move his body and avoid being stabbed in a vital spot.
He took out a black bead and threw it at Zhong Ran, while quickly retreating and swallowing a pill.
Just as he was about to make another move, he felt a burning and numbing sensation coming from his internal organs.
Zhong Ran quickly reached out, grabbed the black bead, and tossed it back.
boom!
The man paused for a moment due to his internal discomfort, and it was in that instant that he was blasted by his own magic orb.
He let out a muffled groan, and his legs buckled, causing him to kneel down.
Before he could react, a water arrow pierced through his heart and flew out from behind him.
Blood was flowing out uncontrollably; he tried to stop it, but it was completely beyond his control.
Without a second thought, his soul left his body, wanting to escape from this place.
But I bumped into a large hand, and was then stuffed into some kind of prop, after which I knew nothing more.
Huang Qiuyin finally had a chance to turn around and look at Zhong Ran, her face full of smiles.
"Xiao Ran, I knew I would find you here."
She was with Jin Wuchen, Yu Yingying, Zhong Xiaotong, and others when they discovered an axe in a broken formation. It looked quite nice.
They wanted to get their hands on it, but they weren't strong enough to even get close.
Just then, Lei Yunqi and his group guessed that it must be Zhong Ran, so they left traces and rushed over here.
Sure enough, I saw Zhong Ran.
With Zhong Ran by my side, the formations and such here won't be a problem.
"I'm relieved to see that you're all safe. Be careful not to get attacked in the chaos."
Zhong Ran reminded them that not only were they unharmed, but their auras had also become much calmer and more restrained. It seemed that the experience they had gained here had been very beneficial to them.
Zhong Ran roamed the battlefield, even activating the Dark Source Pearl to control the demonic energy within, causing the demonic cultivators to gradually lose control.
They no longer attack the righteous path, but instead attack the evil path.
The evil cultivator was injured and enraged, so naturally he wanted to retaliate.
The battlefield is becoming increasingly chaotic.
Ah Sheng's battle was the most eye-catching. He fought four people alone and beat them all badly.
When other people's weapons struck him, they couldn't even break his skin.
This surprised Zhong Ran. How could that kid have grown so much in just over two months?
Cui Miaozi's battle over there was also very exciting. She was surrounded by a faint, earthy yellow glow, and ordinary attacks and demonic energy could not reach her.
That was the hidden power in her bloodline, the Earth Spiritual Root that she later awakened.
However, a malevolent cultivator just happened to teleport behind her, his red bone dagger aimed at Cui Miaozi.
Zhong Ran was furious and was about to teleport there when a figure crashed to the ground in front of her.
Moreover, the man's aura was extremely familiar to her.
Lou Ying.
She looked up and saw that Cui Miaozi had also noticed the sneak attack from behind, but had already dodged it.
She crouched down to look at Lou Ying. Lou Ying's face was contorted, and she was badly injured, with her internal organs displaced.
