Wangchuan Sea.
Flying Feather Immortal Palace’s Inner Sea, Eastern Sea.
Relying on the power of the Lingxiao Sword, Song Knife, having fled over ten thousand miles from the trapping array, gradually slowed his escape.
Ten thousand miles was already a safe distance.
He had abandoned his physical body to escape using the Blood Escape technique; the price he paid was far from trivial.
If this continued, his Dao Pill might be on the verge of shattering.
On the azure sea surface, the Lingxiao Sword slowed. Song Knife’s divine soul erged from his Dao Pill, a sinister expression on his face. "Xu Xing, I’ll rember this grudge..."
This ti, although he had been outmaneuvered, the fundantal issue was that his own foundation was not as profound as Xu Xing’s.
If Xu Xing hadn’t possessed such vast financial resources, which enabled him to enlist the Burial Halberd Elder, and if he hadn’t had the trump card left by the Giant Sword Daoist Monarch... the victor would still have been uncertain.
He had calculated everything except for Xu Xing successfully enticing the Burial Halberd Elder to strike first.
Not good, this storage bag... he thought, just as he was about to find an island to rest and suddenly sensed an anomaly with the storage bag in his hand. It has divine soul fluctuations. Soone is sensing it!
It’s the Burial Halberd Elder’s storage bag...
Damn you, Xu Xing! So you had this trick up your sleeve as well!
Song Knife clenched the storage bag, his expression shifting rapidly, unsure of what decision to make.
The Burial Halberd Elder had been capable of contending with Dao Lords. He wasn’t young, and his wealth was undoubtedly substantial. This was why Song Knife had risked snatching the storage bag.
Tranquil Daoist of Blue Sacred Island is coming soon. The Hundred Treasures Pavilion... What’s there to fear?
At worst, I’ll twist the truth and claim that Burial Halberd Elder, in his greed for my Lingxiao Sword, recklessly attacked first...
Song Knife pondered for a mont and made his decision.
Wealth is sought through danger.
Now that he had lost his physical body, he needed resources to rebuild his cultivation path.
The treasures in Dao Lord Burial Halberd’s storage bag are absolutely essential.
He decided to act imdiately.
This matter could not be delayed.
When the Dao Lords from both sides arrived, even if he was justified, it was uncertain whether the Burial Halberd Elder’s storage bag... would be left for him.
He began to channel his dwindling divine sense and Magic Power to erase the Magic Power imprint on the Burial Halberd Elder’s storage bag.
Although he had dealt with the Burial Halberd Elder with relative ease, that was thanks to his Upper Sect inheritance and various techniques.
However, erasing the Magic Power imprint on the storage bag depended solely on a direct comparison of their Cultivation levels.
The Burial Halberd Elder’s Cultivation was two small realms higher than his.
Therefore, directly breaking the Magic Power imprint on the storage bag was no easy task for him.
He could only wear it down bit by bit.
However—just half a mont after he began, an ominous aura enveloped him, and his Dao Pill instantly weakened considerably.
Song Knife was shocked. Difficult Victory Technique?
The Difficult Victory Technique, aning "to loathe and overco," involved casting spells by ans of curses.
It was far more mysterious and unpredictable than conventional spells.
It must be because I abandoned my physical body on the battlefield that Xu Xing can use it to cast this spell...
Song Knife’s brow furrowed. He began to withdraw the divine sense and Magic Power he had placed on the Burial Halberd Elder’s storage bag, fortifying his spirit to resist this ominous aura.
The Dao Pill was a fusion of essence, qi, and spirit.
Immortal Path cultivators also had the Purple Mansion and Yellow Court to protect their Dao Pill.
The Difficult Victory Technique was effective against bottom-level cultivators, but its potency was drastically reduced against True Monarchs and Dao Lords.
However, in the previous battle, Song Knife had abandoned his physical body and fled with only his Dao Pill, so his ability to resist Xu Xing’s Five Ghosts Heavenly Spell was severely limited.
I barely managed to resist.
Half a mont later, Song Knife inspected the Dao Pill within his divine soul. Seeing it dimd and significantly weakened, a flicker of pain crossed his face, yet deep down, he also felt a sense of relief.
He once again began to wear down the Magic Power imprint on the Burial Halberd Elder’s storage bag.
He was halfway through. Soon, the treasures in this storage bag would be his.
He could not give up now.
However.
The next mont.
Another wave of ominous aura washed over him, incessant and unrelenting.
The Difficult Victory Technique, regardless of its type, usually inflicts a thousand injuries on the enemy at the cost of eight hundred to oneself.
Where did Xu Xing learn such a Difficult Victory Technique...? Could he cast it without suffering any backlash?
That’s right, he has a Substitute Puppet! He must be using the Substitute Puppet to bear the cost...
Song Knife’s brow locked tightly.
With his intellect, he quickly deduced part of the truth.
No need to be hasty. His Difficult Victory Technique, while troubleso, isn’t lethal to .
Song Knife continued to fortify his spirit, using his Dao Pill to forcibly resist the intrusion of Xu Xing’s cursing technique.
「Half an hour later.」
An uninvited guest arrived near the Naless Isle where Song Knife was in seclusion.
Dealing with the Higher Teachings is always so troubleso. Burial Halberd is dead, and I still have to make an appearance...
The Flying Feather Immortal Palace appears righteous, but they’re incredibly slippery. This is not a pleasant task.
Dressed in a crane robe, the elderly Daoist Lord proceeded at a turtle’s pace, sighing repeatedly as he traveled.
He was Thousand Cranes Daoist Lord, a cultivator from the Hundred Treasures Pavilion stationed on Huge Mastiff Island.
This ti, Xu Xing had used an Outer Chamber Elder’s token to inform the Hundred Treasures Pavilion of the Burial Halberd Elder’s death. The Hundred Treasures Pavilion had convened an ergency eting and granted him full authority to handle the matter.
There was only one directive: do not allow the freelance cultivators who had joined the Hundred Treasures Pavilion to beco disheartened.
That youngster should have left already, Thousand Cranes Daoist Lord thought, glancing at the cave on the Naless Isle.
With his speed as a Nascent Soul Daoist Lord, he should have reached this place within two monts had he traveled at full pace. However, fearing trouble, he had deliberately dawdled along the way.
"You there, youngster!" Thousand Cranes Daoist Lord called out. "Was it you who killed Burial Halberd?"
