The legend of the Earth Deity goes that the Earth Deity was slain by a powerful War God.
His physical body transford into four parts, his flesh beca the mountains, his blood beca the rivers, his head beca a temple, and his bones beca a Divine Blade.
"Could the treasure here be that Divine Blade? If that’s the case, then the opportunity here is too imnse," Xu Ping’an thought to himself in shock.
A Divine Blade ford from the bones of the Earth Deity?
Xu Ping’an felt it was unlikely, after all, such a divine object.
If it were here, why didn’t the emperor of the Western Chu Immortal Dynasty take this object away when he ca here in the past?
Moreover, the value of the Divine Blade is too great. If it really were here, it would certainly attract countless strong beings.
Therefore, the likelihood of the Divine Blade appearing here is not great, but the treasure inside must also be extraordinary; otherwise, Xu Lingling wouldn’t regard it so highly.
"Let’s go, the Array Plate of the Great Formation is right at the center of this Stone Forest. Everyone be careful, there are so hidden dangers here, and once triggered, even we might perish," said the white-clothed young man leading the group.
The other two heard the words of the white-clothed young man and nodded in agreent.
This white-clothed young man is their third senior brother, nad Bai Chen, and is also a powerhouse at the Seventh Rank Ninth Layer Realm.
Therefore, both of them held him in high esteem.
Especially the Qin-surnad lady, who looked at Bai Chen with a gaze full of admiration.
Thus, the three continued, pressing on with Yu Xin deeper into the Stone Forest.
Xu Ping’an, on the other hand, sneakily followed behind.
"Bang!"
With a swipe of his blade, Bai Chen cleaved a stone giant ape in two.
This was a stone giant ape at the Seventh Rank Eighth Layer Realm.
Just a mont ago, the stone giant ape had leaped down from a stone pillar, attempting to kill the Qin-surnad lady, but was detected early by Bai Chen and slain with a single stroke.
As the giant ape crumbled, a stream of earthy yellow energy escaped, rging into the ground below.
"Such a waste," Xu Ping’an muttered to himself as he watched the trio ignore the energy, his face revealing a helpless expression.
Clearly, this earthy yellow energy was sothing valuable, but none of the three absorbed it.
"Eh?" At that mont, Xu Ping’an noticed that the earthy yellow energy that had rged into the ground had actually entered Yu Xin’s body, following a trail beneath the earth’s surface.
Nor did anyone perceive this process, not even Yu Xin herself.
"It seems that it’s due to the Earth Spirit Pearl in Yu Xin’s possession, passively absorbing this dispersed Earth Attribute Energy," Xu Ping’an mused to himself.
It wasn’t surprising given that the Earth Attribute Spiritual Pearl had co from this place and could absorb this unique Earth Attribute Energy.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Bai," the Qin-surnad lady said excitedly.
"Junior Sister Qin, be careful. We cannot afford to be careless," Bai Chen replied.
Qin Jingjing quickly nodded.
The man in the blue robe looked on with so envy but said nothing.
Xu Ping’an’s eyes lit up—these three had an unusual relationship, a love triangle?
With this thought, Xu Ping’an suddenly had an idea.
He quickly disappeared into the shadows.
anwhile, Bai Chen and his group continued on their way, but suddenly, their expressions changed dramatically.
They saw a powerful sandstorm sweeping toward them from ahead.
Earthy yellow sand, driven by the fierce winds, careened madly towards them.
"Not good, it’s a Killing Formation. Who triggered the Killing Formation?" Bai Chen shouted imdiately.
Qin Jingjing and the man in the blue robe both shook their heads.
They hadn’t touched anything; how could a Killing Formation suddenly be activated?
So Bai Chen turned to look at Yu Xin, who responded with a cold expression, "Don’t look at . I’m the weakest. If I had triggered the Killing Formation, I would have been the first to die."
At her words, Bai Chen had no room for doubt.
If Yu Xin had deliberately activated the Killing Formation, she would certainly be the first to die.
"Everyone, be careful. It seems like there is sothing amidst this sandstorm. Activate your True Yuan for protection," Bai Chen imdiately instructed.
Upon hearing this, all three did as told.
The man in the blue robe shielded Yu Xin, who was currently too weak to die, as her cultivation was too low to withstand the terrifying sandstorm.
In the blink of an eye, the sandstorm was upon them.
The whirling sand and dust, propelled by the violent winds, beca incredibly fierce.
The swirling sands lashed against their True Yuan shields, sparking fires upon contact.
The yellow sand filled the sky, obliterating the view for everyone, making it impossible to see any of the surrounding landscape.
Qin Jingjing seed to want to use Soul Power to probe her surroundings.
But just as she began to use her Soul Power, it was torn apart by the terrifying gale, forcing her to spit out a mouthful of fresh blood.
"Damn, this sandstorm is too terrifying, it can even tear apart Soul Power."
The sa situation occurred to the man in the green robe and Bai Chen.
At this mont, they had lost any Perception abilities, to the extent that they couldn’t even sense the positions of their fellow companions.
The howling winds were so strong, they couldn’t even convey their voices, and could only silently wait for the sandstorm to pass.
"Huh? An attack from a Killing Formation?"
Just as Bai Chen was silently withstanding the sandstorm, suddenly, he sensed an extrely dangerous aura.
He saw a terrifying sword thread mixed with the violent winds, sweeping towards him.
This sword thread was horrifyingly powerful and had surpassed the attack of an ordinary Seventh Rank Peak practitioner.
Bai Chen was shocked and hastily mounted a defense.
However, the sword thread was stronger than he had imagined.
"Pfft!"
In desperation, Bai Chen quickly brought out a Low Grade Immortal Weapon Battle Armor to defend himself.
His True Elental Shield was instantly shattered, and the terrifying sword thread struck the Low Grade Immortal Weapon Battle Armor, imdiately sending him flying.
"Oh? He actually has a Low Grade Immortal Weapon Battle Armor," Xu Ping’an let out a light exclamation as he appeared in front of Bai Chen once again.
This ti, Bai Chen finally saw Xu Ping’an’s figure, his face showing an extre expression of shock.
It’s a person!
The attacker is a person?
Not a Killing Formation?
Damn, an enemy.
"Die," Xu Ping’an said with a cold laugh as he threw a punch.
This punch was incredibly fast, unleashing the Power of Thirteen Dragons as it burst forth.
Bai Chen wanted to dodge, but found that he simply couldn’t avoid it.
"No..." Bai Chen wanted to yell out, to alert his companions.
But Xu Ping’an’s fist was too fast, and he directly blasted Bai Chen’s head apart with one punch.
A Seventh Rank Ninth Layer Realm practitioner was rcilessly killed by Xu Ping’an just like that.
After killing Bai Chen, a smile appeared on Xu Ping’an’s face.
"Lei Shi, it’s up to you now," Xu Ping’an said.
Lei Shi didn’t hesitate, imdiately devouring the energy emanating from Bai Chen as it dissipated.
The next mont, Lei Shi absorbed Bai Chen’s Soul Origin and relayed Bai Chen’s mories back to Xu Ping’an.
"Interesting, so many powerhouses have co down from the Heavenly Spirit Realm this ti, and part of it’s for my sake?" Xu Ping’an was cry-laughing as he saw the content of the mories.
It turned out that after Shangguan Lingyu returned to the Heavenly Spirit Realm last ti, the news of her defeat in the Mortal Realm by him had spread.
Shangguan Lingyu was extrely popular in the Heavenly Spirit Realm, with countless suitors, leading many prodigies from the Heavenly Spirit Realm’s powers to descend to the Mortal Realm to et him.
So were curious to see for themselves what was so special about the mortal who defeated Shangguan Lingyu, while others intended to win favor with Shangguan Lingyu.
Even Bai Chen harbored such thoughts.
"Quite amusing, I haven’t even been to the Heavenly Spirit Realm yet, but I’m already famous there. However, it seems that Shangguan Lingyu hasn’t descended this ti, looks like she was hit hard," Xu Ping’an laughed.
The next mont, Xu Ping’an transford, taking on Bai Chen’s appearance.
Whether it was the facial features, aura, or deanor, he was nearly exactly like Bai Chen.
Indeed, Xu Ping’an had killed Bai Chen in order to infiltrate the group.
After all, apart from these people, there were also individuals from the Great Fla Immortal Dynasty who had entered this place.
He feared that so unforeseen event might occur later, and he wouldn’t be in ti to rescue Yu Xin.
By becoming Bai Chen, he could take the initiative and control the pace to avoid any accidents.
As the sandstorm dispersed, the figures of Qin Jingjing, the man in the green robe, and Yu Xin were all revealed.
Seeing Bai Chen, Qin Jingjing let out a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness, Brother Bai is safe.
However, she didn’t know that Bai Chen had already been replaced at this mont.
