113: Chapter 113 Holy Spring Crystal 113: Chapter 113 Holy Spring Crystal The clash between the Artifact Spirit and the fist punches imdiately unleashed intense power.
Xiao Zhan was prepared in his mind; although the old man didn’t have an Artifact Spirit, daring to clash head-on with a Demon Beast ant his strength should not be underestimated.
He wielded the scythe with all his might.
However, to his surprise, the old man seed to be all bark and no bite.
Their collision lasted barely half a second before the old man was sent flying by Xiao Zhan.
With a thud, he crashed into the stone wall.
He spat out a mouthful of fresh blood that instantly stained his white beard red.
The old man stood up, his expression sowhat shocked; this young lad, clearly with only Second Grade Spirit Manipulation Energy, but the power he burst forth with was comparable to Third Grade!
He felt secretly aggrieved.
“Old man, calm down.
We are here to slay the Demon Beast, not to kill you.”
Seeing the wounds left by the Demon Beast on the old man’s body, Xiao Zhan knew this was the main reason for his easy defeat and hence stated his intention.
After all, he was a person from the Federation and did not want to mistakenly kill a good person.
He thought that after hearing this, the old man would stop attacking, but unexpectedly, his hostility towards Xiao Zhan increased.
“It is not a Demon Beast!”
“I absolutely won’t allow you to kill it!”
While speaking, the old man’s beard moved without wind, and the dark red blood coating his teeth exhibited the extre hatred he harbored towards Xiao Zhan and the others.
At the sa ti, a clump of pure energy gathered in his hands!
Feeling the power of that energy, Xiao Zhan’s expression beca solemn.
“Old man, are you seriously ill?
Look at how crazily this Demon Beast is behaving.
Tell , if it’s not a Demon Beast, what is it?”
“Besides, didn’t you just try to kill it yourself?
So only you’re allowed to kill it, but we’re not?”
Xiao Zhan felt baffled, the old man behaved as if soone else was stepping on his territory to take credit.
Not allowing others to kill.
Who do you think you are?
The key is, if you want to stop others, you should have the ability to do so.
If you could really kill the Demon Beast by yourself, who would bother competing with you?
But instead of listening to Xiao Zhan, the energy in the old man’s hands grew even stronger.
“Kid, I don’t want to waste words with you.
I’m giving you a chance now.
Let your people leave imdiately, otherwise later you won’t be able to leave even if you want to!”
At this point, the old man still warned him.
But how could Xiao Zhan possibly leave.
He didn’t know exactly why the old man was doing this, but he knew he had to stop him right now.
Without any hesitation, he launched his attack first.
Spirit Manipulation Energy activated, releasing the Death Aura, like a city-breaking black cloud, instantly engulfing the old man.
Spirit Manipulation Technique, Fish Lamp Soul Summoning!
Seeing this, surprise flickered in the old man’s eyes once again.
To release such a strong Spirit Manipulation Technique so quickly, was this guy really just a Second Grade Spirit Master?
There wasn’t ti to think more; Xiao Zhan’s Spirit Manipulation Technique posed a threat to him.
And as the Death Aura was released, Xiao Zhan’s figure also hid within it, fearing completely losing his target, the old man hastily spurred the energy in his hands and released it powerfully.
Energy burst forth like a beam of light, easily eradicating the surging Death Aura, dissipating like passing clouds.
The fierce power it stirred up even ripped a deep gorge into the ground!
Rubble flew everywhere, along with the scattered Death Aura all being obliterated.
Boom!
Energy charged through, piercing directly through the Death Aura without losing any force, and then slamd into the forest behind, causing a thunderous, earth-shaking noise.
Xu Wen and the others were drawn by the sound.
However, after the loud crash, the Death Aura dissipated, but no trace of Xiao Zhan could be seen.
The old man hesitated, just about to act, when suddenly a fierce wind howled from his left.
Then he felt a pain like his ribs on the left were breaking, and his body uncontrollably flew out.
Another heavy crash, and he smashed against the stone wall.
When he ca to his senses, a cold, black Demon Scythe was already at his neck.
“Old man, don’t be foolish.
If it weren’t for the fact that you just dealt with the Demon Beast, I would have killed you already,” said Xiao Zhan with a cold voice.
The chilling cold at his neck felt as if it was seeping into his bone marrow, making the old man uncontrollably shiver.
Facing Xiao Zhan’s cold eyes, he knew that if he continued, Xiao Zhan would definitely kill him.
His eyes suddenly showed a painful reluctance.
“If you want to kill it, kill first!
There’s no way I’ll hand over the Holy Spring Crystal just to force my hand!”
The old man then closed his eyes, resolute in his willingness to die.
“Holy Spring Crystal?”
Xiao Zhan was a bit confused about what the old man was saying, “Old man, we’re here to kill the Demon Beast, not to coerce you.
We’ve never even heard of this Holy Spring Crystal you’re talking about.”
Upon hearing this, the old man suddenly opened his eyes.
The resolute will to die he had just displayed vanished instantly, replaced by intense suspicion.
“Who exactly are you?” the old man asked, staring into Xiao Zhan’s eyes.
“We are from the Federation Special Service Bureau.”
“Federation Governnt?
You’re not the people Da Shan called?”
The old man’s expression paused, then his attitude noticeably softened.
“Da Shan?
The villager who led the way?”
Seeing Xiao Zhan’s expression, the old man realized that they really knew nothing.
A misunderstanding.
A huge misunderstanding!
He quickly pushed away the scythe at his neck, then said, “You’ve been used by Da Shan!”
“What do you an?
Clarify,” Xiao Zhan quickly asked.
Thinking back to Da Shan’s odd behavior, he imdiately realized that the matter was not so simple.
The old man looked at the people and Demon Beast fighting in the arena, his expression sowhat anxious, “This Spirit Pattern White Ape isn’t a Demon Beast, but our Holy Spring Village’s Guardian Beast, which has protected us for nearly a hundred years.”
“Its nature is gentle, and it never kills the innocent.
The reason it has beco so violent now is all because of Da Shan!”
“Da Shan wanted to get the Holy Spring Crystal from , I refused, so he hard the Guardian Beast to force to hand it over!”
“Now, with your arrival, you have actually fallen into his trap.”
Xiao Zhan felt confused, sowhat understanding yet not quite, “What trap have we fallen into?”
“You have beco his tool to force to hand over the Holy Spring Crystal.
He utilized your power to deal with the Spirit Pattern White Ape, intending for both of you to be injured, and then take the opportunity to seize my Holy Spring Crystal.”
Both of you injured?
Seize the old man’s Holy Spring Crystal?
Xiao Zhan felt more baffled the more he listened, “He’s a Third Grade Spirit Master, how could he ensure that we and the Demon Beast would both be injured?
We are a team.”
“Moreover, even if we and the Demon Beast both end up injured, what does it have to do with seizing your Holy Spring Crystal?”
