Chapter 143: Chapter 143 Interception
“`
Shi Hao continued to advance, while Chu Lingkong kept retreating, completely no match for him.
Chu Lingkong’s face was filled with horror, the Dark Force combined with the Power of Thunder made him too afraid to even block, it was simply pathetic.
Even though Shi Hao’s Primitive Strength was still inferior to his own!
What kind of freak was this kid, who not only mastered Sun-Level Martial Techniques but was also a Dual-Attribute Spirit Root capable of using Dark Force? These combined had elevated his combat power to a terrifying level.
If it weren’t for the Power of Thunder, he would definitely be able to fight on par.
...
Shi Hao smiled, as the Soul Seed Puppet was quietly released, truly formless and invisible, its speed so fast that in a thought it had already appeared behind Chu Lingkong.
Boom, the arms of the Soul Seed Puppet quietly burst into flas, turning into sothing like two Fire Blades.
Chu Lingkong was fully concentrated on dodging Shi Hao’s frontal attacks, how could he expect a Soul Seed Puppet to be sneakily attacking him from behind?
Pu!
He was like crashing into it himself, the two blades of fla piercing through his body instantly.
That was an incredibly intense high temperature, with the Fire Blade entering his body, it instantly caused irreparable damage to his physique.
Chu Lingkong’s face was full of shock, he felt his life force rapidly draining, death was not far away.
But to his death, he would not understand, why did it happen like this?
Where did this attack co from?
Why?
“You are… Triple-Attribute!” But there was one thing he was certain of.
Triple Attribute, Shi Hao was actually a Triple-Attribute Spirit Root!
“Wrong.” Shi Hao smiled, casually manifesting various Elental Powers.
Damn it!
Chu Lingkong half-opened his mouth in extre shock.
How could there be such a freak?
“Impossible! Impossible! Impossible!” He muttered to himself, but his life force was getting weaker and weaker, and he suddenly collapsed forward, two congealed holes visible on his back.
The Fire Blade had entered his body, directly charring his skin and even evaporating and solidifying the blood.
Shi Hao shook his head, he hadn’t even exhausted all his trump cards, yet he had killed a six-step opponent.
Adding in the factor of the Ninefold Mountain, it shouldn’t be too difficult for him to kill a seven-step opponent either.
However, Ninefold Mountain wasn’t part of his own abilities, he could have it, but others could just as likely luck out and possess a Spiritual Artifact.
Moreover, in places unknown to him, there were Almighties who could refine Talismanic Soldiers, which could truly change the battle situation in an instant.
He must not be arrogant.
Shi Hao reminded himself as he pondered.
Chu Lingkong had already released the Heavenly Machine Bird, just half an hour was needed, and Chu Xiaotian and the others would receive the ssage. The incident involving the Spirit Stones was of great importance; Chu Xiaotian and his fellows would surely take personal action to silence him.
Given the speed of an Other Shore Realm expert… erh, he hadn’t seen them, nor could he judge, but it would certainly be faster than him.
After all, he hadn’t used the Cloud Piercing Step to co here, which also belongs to Martial Techniques, unleashing power in a way that consus several tis the normal amount. It could only be used for short-distance pursuit or escape; it wasn’t practical for long-distance travel.
aning, the ti left for Shi Hao might only be a re few hours.
“Since I’ve discovered that Chu Xiaotian and his cronies are secretly mining, all I need to do is send the ssage back, and even if Chu Xiaotian and his group are elders, committing such a heinous act, they won’t escape death.”
“Go!”
He quietly moved along under the moonlight, returning to the White Cloud Sect.
He refused to believe that Chu Xiaotian and the others could so coincidentally intercept him.

However, three hours later, Shi Hao arrived at Solitary Sky Ridge.
This was a unique choke point between heaven and earth, with exceptionally tall mountains on both sides that were incredibly steep, and there was only one narrow trail that could be traversed.
Choosing to climb over the mountains instead of taking the trail would take at least several days longer and was perilously dangerous; one misstep could lead to a fatal tumble into a aty pulp.
If he were Chu Xiaotian and his companions, they definitely wouldn’t blindly chase after but would set up an ambush here instead.
After all, how difficult would it be to intercept soone in other wide-open areas?
The question was, had Chu Xiaotian and his gang arrived, and did they have the intelligence to do so?
Keep in mind that they did not know what had happened and had only received the Heavenly Machine Bird’s warning. What kind of reaction would they have?
Shi Hao decided to take the risk and try; passing through the gorge would only take half an incense stick’s ti, but taking a detour would take far too long.
Under the cover of night, he moved swiftly.
Soon, the exit appeared ahead, and at that mont, the rising sun had just leaped above the horizon, casting a dazzling light in front of him.
However, Shi Hao abruptly ca to a halt.
Chu Xiaotian, Zhang Ji, Shi Xingwei, Chen Mo, four elders appeared simultaneously.
Damn, was all that really necessary?
But after receiving the Heavenly Machine Bird’s ssage, was it necessary to mobilize such a grand lineup?
What he didn’t know was that Chu Xiaotian and his efforts were tantamount to betraying their sect. Hence, any small movent startled them. Better safe than sorry should any word get out, and things really go south then.
“Indeed, you’re very cunning, Ling Kong couldn’t stop you!” Chu Xiaotian said coldly, looking sage-like.
Chen Mo internally complained, pointing out it was his analysis, and he had firmly insisted that all four elders needed to take action simultaneously rather than just sending one person to check the situation.
Now faced with them, Shi Hao was fearless at heart, as he still held his trump card.
“Furthermore, this is the only path leading to the White Cloud Sect, so although we arrived here early, we’ve been waiting, letting you walk right into the trap!” Chu Xiaotian added, with a mocking smile on his face.
This motherfucker, that was my suggestion!
Chen Mo continued his internal rant; those three idiots wanted to run directly to the camp, but he insisted on waiting here. As long as no one made it back to the White Cloud Sect, all was not lost.
But now, this had all been passed off as Chu Xiaotian’s analysis, which was shaless to the extre.
There was no choice; in front of others, of course, he had to maintain Chu Xiaotian’s dignity.
Shi Hao smiled and then imdiately turned to run at full speed.
“Chase!” Chu Xiaotian and the others hastily pursued.
They were from the Other Shore Realm, with rapid speed, quickly closing the distance with Shi Hao.
Ten feet away, seven feet, five feet.
Each of the four elders sneered, having reached the range where they could strike.
“Stop for this old man!” Chu Xiaotian made his move, slapping towards Shi Hao.
The strike, however, deliberately missed Shi Hao’s vitals.
It wasn’t that he was being rciful; he just didn’t want Shi Hao to die too quickly. He needed to extract the information about the “Secret Treasure” Shi Hao had obtained first.
Chen Mo also revealed a smile. Although Chu Xiaotian’s intelligence might not be very high, his strength was unrivaled among the four, truly the first in combat power. Under his strike, Shi Hao was sure to be severely injured.
“Is that so?” Shi Hao smiled, turning his head back, his hand now holding a beast hide. Soul Force infused, the beast hide glowed, and boom, a large grey hand erged from the hide.
What the—?
All four elders were shocked; what was this?
Boom, the grey hand, void of any emotion, slapped towards the four.
(It’s day five, guys. Are you having fun yet?)
