Half an hour later, as Qian Zhenrong looked at his companions, who were dead or critically wounded, he took a deep breath.
"ng Yu?"
A young Foundation Establishnt cultivator, had burst into the estate, slaughtering like a god of death, his swordsmanship was divine; he also had a Golden Core friend, who used a Formation to seal off the estate.
"It's ."
Qian Zhenrong had seen ng Yu's portrait nurous tis, but now, witnessing the young man's swordsmanship, he was sowhat stunned.
"Your martial skill…"
Qian Zhenrong paused, not because he was shocked by the greatness of ng Yu's martial abilities, but at their seeming weakness!
He was a bona fide Golden Core Master, and although he had not cultivated the Eternal Night Palace's true thods, it was not because his talents were lacking, but because his constitution was suited to another path of cultivation, and thus, he cultivated another set of techniques.
ng Yu's swordsmanship could be considered top-notch among those at the Foundation Establishnt stage, but Qian Zhenrong was a False Core, and the difference between a False Core and a Golden Core is that one could only cultivate to the Middle Stage of Golden Core at best and there were so other gaps, but that did not an his combat strength was weak.
He also brought with him the Protective Treasure Armor, the Thousand Peaks Geng tal Sword, and the Five Lakes Banner; in his view, ng Yu was nothing special.
"I am testing out my sword."
ng Yu said calmly to Qian Zhenrong.
"The Wild Wind Thief has committed nurous atrocities, and it just so happened that I ca across it. Your luck is bad, I am going to kill you.
You cannot escape now, Hua Miaochai's Formation has locked onto you. You have one way out now; Hua Miaochai will not make a move. If you win against , you can go!"
ng Yu spoke calmly, and Hua Miaochai nodded in agreent at his side.
Once cultivation reaches Golden Core, the effectiveness of simulated combat decreases substantially. Although ng Yu had sparred with many Golden Core cultivators before, none of those were life-and-death battles, and they all lacked a certain zest. But today's fight against Qian Zhenrong made his blood boil with excitent.
Moreover, ng Yu said that Hua Miaochai would not make a move, which did not an that Mirror Twelve wouldn't act to protect ng Yu's safety. Also, in a dire situation, he still had the Shocking Spirit Stab that he could unleash instantaneously.
"Good!"
Although Qian Zhenrong did not know what ng Yu was up to, he did not hesitate to make his move.
"Boom!"
The figures of the two n, like lightning, crisscrossed back and forth.
This was the most perilous close-quarters battle, and Qian Zhenrong always thought of himself as the fiercest one!
How could ng Yu, a pampered young master who enjoyed the treatnt of a Divinity Transformation, dare to fight desperately against him?
Ten minutes later, Qian Zhenrong lay on the ground.
His face was filled with disbelief and shock.
ng Yu was fiercer than he was, and utterly reckless!
...
Half a day later, in a marketplace of a nearby prefecture.
This was an ordinary marketplace, presided over by a re Foundation Building Cultivator sipping tea, relishing the exquisite taste of Spiritual Tea.
This marketplace belonged to the Eternal Night Palace, and even though he was just a Foundation Building Cultivator, everyone who entered treated him with great respect, and even if they were wronged, they had to swallow their grievances.
The territory controlled by the Eternal Night Palace has never known rebellion.
Then, he saw a man and a woman, a handso pair, flying into the marketplace.
"ng Yu, Hua Miaochai?"
The portraits of these two had been circulated to every force nearby, and even this Foundation Building Cultivator knew of the terror, especially of ng Yu.
Particularly since the Foundation Building Cultivator was a disciple of the Eternal Night Palace.
What was he doing here? Ah, that's right, he's setting up a wooden fra.
Then, he pulled several people out of the Human Seed Bag and hung them up there.
ng Yu hung those people on the wooden fra and soon, many Loose Cultivators began to gather around, so recognizing ng Yu and also the people hung on the fra.
"The Wild Wind Thief, Qian Zhenrong?"
Soone shouted out loud.
...
Qian Zhenrong's body was hung on the fra, and then ng Yu tried to ignite his soul with the Great Solar True Fire.
Mirror Twelve used the Great Solar True Fire technique, whose original na was quite unrefined, so let's call it the Burning Lamp Technique, surely the Buddhist Sect won't mind.
Turning soone into a lamp to light is a troubleso task, like the first lackey, whom ng Yu directly incinerated into ash.
However, there were several test subjects, and Mirror Twelve was also guiding the process.
For instance, the second mber of the Wild Wind Thieves was successfully ignited.
"Please, kill !"
The Wild Wind Thief let out a desperate wail, but the roasting effect was not very good. Compared to Mirror Twelve, ng Yu's thod was like using a candle to burn soone's feet, while Mirror Twelve was roasting a whole sheep while simultaneously healing.
The purer the Great Solar True Fire, the more targeted it becos. For instance, the Great Solar True Fire that could easily burn the Blood Demon to death was not very effective against people like Qian Zhenrong.
Perhaps, they had not committed as many evil deeds as the Blood Demon, but it didn't matter—they all deserved to die.
As for the ineffectiveness, ng Yu didn't care, he just needed to burn them a few more tis. It was like using a stick to kill soone wasn't as convenient as an axe, but a few dozen more strikes would do the job.
In the end, it was Mirror Twelve who ignited Qian Zhenrong.
"If you want to live, confess everything. Maybe soone will grant you a quick death,"
ng Yu said this.
The next mont, Qian Zhenrong wailed madly and confessed his identity, the evil deeds he had committed, and begged everyone to kill him quickly.
After he spilled these secrets, surely the Eternal Night Palace would silence him quickly, right?
The people around showed expressions of indignation. The Wild Wind Thief had ravaged the area for many years, and countless families had suffered. So victims, with tears streaming down their faces, asked Qian Zhenrong questions, to which he answered correctly.
ng Yu sat quietly in the marketplace, watching the Foundation Building Cultivators of the Eternal Night Palace with furious eyes, and he just sneered contemptuously.
"Since True Sage Guo Sangyu wishes to receive my Great Solar True Fire, then I'll burn them one by one."
As for the Eternal Night Palace, do you think that in many eras, the Orthodox Sects have been able to pass down from generation to generation?
Because many Orthodox Sects uphold their rules, when encountering issues they refrain from annihilating completely, leaving a way out, and even when discovering their own people at fault, they handle their own.
Sects with such conduct and principles, when others hold an advantage, would be given an opportunity rather than suffering heavy losses to annihilate others completely.
Unfortunately, the reputation of the Eternal Night Palace isn't good, and they favor thorough annihilation.
If that's the case, then let's play this ga properly.
The first step is to gain the advantage of public opinion.
Unwarranted execution is wrong. To destroy a sect, you first need to fra them as evil heretics.
Using a black glove to do the dirty work feels great, but the backlash is also very brutal.
The Loose Cultivators in the marketplace, upon hearing Qian Zhenrong's words, all hung their heads, showing no expression, but everything that happened today would spread rapidly.
The Foundation Building Cultivators of the Eternal Night Palace never mustered the courage to step forward, until after three hours two Golden Core Masters from the Eternal Night Palace arrived.
The opposition accused ng Yu of defamation and claid Qian Zhenrong was speaking nonsense, but ng Yu simply drew his sword.
"I am upholding justice."
Sotis, a good facade is very useful.
The battle broke out quickly. Hua Miaochai blocked one of the Golden Cores from the Eternal Night Palace, while ng Yu fought against another, alternating usage of the Sword Intent of the Wind and Sword Intent of Fire, with the Three-legged Golden Crow striking and circling.
To outsiders, he only used two kinds of Sword Intents. The Sword Intent of Fire because of Mirror Twelve's presence, with the Three-legged Golden Crow getting smoother the more it was used, and the Sword Intent of the Wind, well-known by many, didn't need to be kept secret, and he had also deeply ingrained it into his marrow.
The Golden Core Cultivator from the Eternal Night Palace, cultivating the Black Sun Godblade, fought with ng Yu and grew increasingly terrified.
Although he had not achieved Golden Core for long, he was a bona fide Golden Core, and his Black Sun Godblade specialized in devouring everything. Paired with a ntal thod that could render one's senses inoperative and perception reversed, many had suffered greatly upon contact with it.
But what had he encountered?
A swordsman fluid as the wind, always seizing the best position, whose swordsmanship might not be the most exquisite, but was the most appropriate. And the Three-legged Golden Crow, as if it was part of his own body, extrely sensitive, shattering the area ford by the Black Sun Godblade with ease every ti.
In their battle, the Eternal Night Palace's Golden Core, while obviously stronger and with more Spiritual Energy and experience than ng Yu, was pressed by him—an effortless, elegant Foundation Establishnt swordsman!
Even in their final retreat, ng Yu and Hua Miaochai's departure was exceedingly smooth.
This battle, with ng Yu at the sixth layer of Foundation Establishnt, fought an evenly matched duel against a Golden Core of the Eternal Night Palace, giving countless spectators great enjoynt.
So were a little disappointed that the child of Divinity Transformation had not actually slain a Golden Core, but really, Foundation Establishnts escaping from a Golden Core always counted as good luck. Apart from that, one should not even dream of anything else. ng Yu's performance would be considered that of a True Seed in any Orthodox Sect or Holy Land.
As for the scandals of the Eternal Night Palace, they spread far and wide.
...
Three days later, ng Yu attacked another group of thieves and captured their leader, who was also thrown into a marketplace. The wailing chief spoke about being subordinate to the Eternal Night Palace, and the terrible cris he confessed enraged everyone.
Seven days later, ng Yu and three Golden Cores along with sixteen Foundation Builders of the Eternal Night Palace t. This ti, ng Yu and Hua Miaochai, covering for each other, with Hua Miaochai's Five Elents Peach Blossom Umbrella reversing Yin Yang and throwing chaos into the environnt, allowed ng Yu, transford into a gentle breeze, to thrive within her spells.
In this battle, ng Yu's Fire Crow Sword Technique beca even more proficient, and the Three-legged Golden Crow, bathed in the Great Solar True Fire, leading nearly a hundred other Fire Crows, blotted out the sky and swept away everything.
In this battle, not only were the two unafraid, they pressed the three Golden Cores of the Eternal Night Palace, and in the end, caused those three Golden Cores to retreat while half of the sixteen Foundation Builders were killed.
ng Yu and Hua Miaochai took the initiative to pursue, destroying six outposts of the Eternal Night Palace along the way, their fa unrivaled for a ti.
Golden Core Masters observing from afar raised their evaluation of ng Yu significantly.
Two against three was a victory of courage and wisdom. ng Yu, in the face of extre danger, danced on the edge of a knife. The seamless cooperation between wind and fire showed he was truly a True Seed, and once he achieved Golden Core, he would shock the entire Cultivation World.
ng Yu and Hua Miaochai pursued the three Golden Cores of the Eternal Night Palace for ten days, over eight thousand li, and on the eleventh day, they turned and fled.
Because the Eternal Night Palace had gathered five more Golden Cores to form an encirclent, intent on capturing the two of them!
