Saint Sovereign of Nine Heavens

4Relying on the mysteriousness of the Emperor Bone's aura, after killing Wang Zhen with his blade, Chen Yu quickly adjusted his posture and like a fierce tiger descending from the mountain, welcomed the sword light and the vast imposing Qi, and then directly collided with it. In his left hand, a three feet long Willow Leaf Knife had appeared out of nowhere, the tip of the blade was pointed straight, and a touch of green Spiritual Light had appeared.     3

    

The True Divine Spirit exploded onto Chen Yu's body. Chen Yu flew along with the wind, but that green light had already shot out, penetrating the True Divine Spirit Qi and striking a warrior at the sixth level of Heavenly Astral Stage.    

    

As for the sword ray, it barely missed Chen Yu's body and left a deep mark on the ground.    

    

The warrior on the right saw the green light shooting over and couldn't clearly see what it was. He turned around to look at his comrade. When he saw the green light, his expression immediately changed.    

    

Looking around, he could see strands of green spread out from his companion's body. In the blink of an eye, his companion's face had turned a ghastly green, and he revealed a strong sense of death.    

    

When he looked closely, he saw a green hole appearing on his chest. The soft armor inside could not block it in the slightest, making it seem extremely shocking!    

    

The warrior was shocked. His eyes flashed a few times before he suddenly stopped. He gave up on attacking Chen Yu and turned around to escape.    

    

However, before the warrior could use the Wing Flying Technique, Chen Yu's figure flashed past like a gale, and the Wind Stabilization Blade slashed down.    

    

The warrior quickly blocked with his sword and retreated a few steps back. His Qi was scattered by Chen Yu's tremendous strength.    

    

After several consecutive moves, the martial artist with no fighting spirit was continuously cut by the edge of the blade. After falling head first onto the ground, he was beheaded by Chen Yu.    

    

Only then did Chen Yu let out a long breath, waved his hand, and urged the Spirit Connecting Vine to leave his body.    

    

After the Spirit Connecting Vine flew out, it landed on the grass, the shadow started to add a bit of green, and the grass on the grass started to become half dried up.    

    

However, just at this moment, something that shocked Chen Yu happened. As the Spirit Connecting Vine began to absorb the essence of the green grass on the hill, it began to swim close to the ground, in order to absorb more of the essence of the grass.    

    

As a result, after the corpse was covered by the shadow of the Spirit Connecting Vine, Chen Yu could clearly see the flesh and blood that had just died wither and wither at a speed that could be seen by the naked eye.    

    

And within the dark green mirage of the Spirit Connecting Vine, a strange black aura had clearly started to fill and increase explosively.    

    

Without waiting for Chen Yu's reaction, in just a few seconds, the warrior that was just killed by Chen Yu was turned into a bag of bones. It looked extremely strange and horrifying.    

    

Chen Yu was anxious and urged the Spirit Connecting Vine to fly back.    

    

Under the control of the swaying Star Soul, although the Spirit Connecting Vine was extremely unwilling, and struggled in the air, it was unable to break free from the control of the Star Soul, and could only fly back into Chen Yu's body, being suppressed by the Spiritual Soul in Chen Yu's heart.    

    

Just like last time, as the Spirit Connecting Vine went back into his heart, Chen Yu felt a vigorous life flowing into his wound.    

    

The wound that Wang Zhen cut open started to heal at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye. The flesh on the wound wiggled and quickly scabbed.    

    

However, immediately after this surge of vitality, a dense, strange, evil energy that Chen Yu could not describe with words also appeared at the same time and rushed towards Chen Yu's limbs and bones.    

    

This surge of energy was even stronger than the plant essence. Very soon, under the guidance of Chen Yu's circulating Qi and Supreme Force, this strange energy fused into Chen Yu and immediately strengthened his Supreme Force and Qi.    

    

In just a dozen breaths, Chen Yu's consumed Supreme Qi had already returned to its peak state, and the blood in his body was boiling. Chen Yu could clearly feel that the power of his Qi had also become a little stronger.    

    

Looking at the dried up body of the warrior, Chen Yu instinctively felt a slight sense of death in the village. However, the Star Soul did not have much of a reaction, and Chen Yu was also unable to directly disperse the flow of Profound Qi that had fused with his body and the True Divine Spirit Qi.    

    

In the instant that the Spirit Connecting Vine was released, not only did Chen Yu recover from his injuries, the energy that he had consumed was also instantly filled up. Just from this, it could be said that it was heaven defying.    

    

However, Chen Yu was sure that the energy that had been converted into astral energy and blood did not come from the cyan grass, but from the corpse of the practitioner at the sixth level of Heavenly Astral Stage!    

    

"Devour!"    

    

Last time, Chen Yu only faintly felt that the Spirit Connecting Vine's process of absorbing the plant's essence was a kind of overbearing plundering and devouring. Now, Chen Yu was completely sure of this.    

    

Furthermore, what was truly shocking to Chen Yu was that the Spirit Connecting Vine could even steal and devour the Profound Qi of warriors who had just died.    

    

However, it was the Qi of the dead that had yet to dissipate, so Chen Yu felt a sense of death that made him depressed and uneasy.    

    

Chen Yu had actually heard of similar evil tactics before in Bloodfire Emperor's memory. They both originated from the demonic path, and they were only limited to hearsay. Chen Yu never thought that such an event would happen to him!    

    

Chen Yu's mind was in a mess. Thus, he squatted down to pick up the spoils of war, using this action to organize his thoughts, to digest the shock that the Spirit Connecting Vine gave him!    

    

The effects of the Spirit Connecting Vine were simply too evil!    

    

Chen Yu quickly thought that no one in Ruling Spirit Sect knew that the Spirit Connecting Vine had the ability to absorb the essence of the dead, otherwise, Ruling Spirit Sect would definitely not take out this kind of Spiritual Soul for the participants in the selection to compete for it.    

    

After all, the Spiritual Soul had not been fused by anyone ever since it was brought back to the Ruling Spirit Sect.    

    

To some extent, the effects of the Spirit Connecting Vine s on warriors were similar to the Blood Refining Technique s. One had to know that the Blood Refining Technique could also be cultivated using the blood of powerful warriors, and thus increase one's strength!    

    

"Spirit Connecting Vine, this name is definitely not suitable!" Chen Yu did not even pay attention to his spoils of war. After thinking for a while, he took a deep breath and said: "Anyways, I have already cultivated the Blood Flame Tyrant Spell, so this technique is also extremely vicious. It seemed like adding another evil and vicious Spiritual Soul was nothing. However, this method of devouring the essence energy of the dead to increase one's cultivation level has a lot of side effects, so you still have to use it carefully! "    

    

Taking a deep breath, Chen Yu knew he had no time to waste. He picked up the skinny and shriveled corpse and left. After travelling for a few miles, he found a place to bury the body.    

    

Then, Chen Yu rushed with all his might towards the strange stone forest.    

    

Two hours later, several figures rushed over and arrived in front of Wang Zhen's corpse.    

    

Just by looking at the two corpses on the ground, a man dressed in white revealed an expression of disbelief.    

    

"It's Wang Zhen and Kang Jian!" The two martial artists beside the white clothed man exclaimed.    

    

The man in white was Bai Shangfei. His gaze fell on the fatal wound on Wang Zhen's corpse, unable to shift away for a long time.    

    

His relationship with Wang Zhen could not be considered close, but he was definitely not a stranger. He had fought with Wang Zhen a few times. Although he was better than Wang Zhen, he was also very impressed by Wang Zhen's amazing sword technique.    

    

And now, Wang Zhen, who was an expert in sabresmanship, had died under someone else's sabre. Judging from the direction of the wound, it was clear that he had been hacked to death the moment he failed to dodge or resist!    

    

What kind of terrifying blade skill was needed to use the power of the second level of Heavenly Astral Stage to completely crush and kill a practitioner of the seventh level of Heavenly Astral Stage with just the power of the second level?    

    

When he thought of this, even the proud and aloof Bai Shangfei felt chills in his heart.    

    

Suddenly, Bai Shangfei turned around and looked at one of the people in the group. A cold light flashed across his eyes.    

    

The person who Bai Shangfei was looking at coldly was sturdy with thick eyebrows and big eyes. His injuries were not light; he was Tie Zheng, whom Chen Yu had occasionally met yesterday.    

    

Tie Zheng showed nervousness on his face and said, "Brother Whitey, you said that I will lead the way, so you won't make things difficult for me."    

    

"Did I?" Bai Shangfei said coldly, "If you say so, then I will take it back!"    

    

Saying that, Bai Shangfei's claw slapped out.    

    

Tie Zheng's expression changed as he barely managed to throw a punch to block the attack.    

    

Claws and fist clawed at each other as Tie Zheng was sent flying, spitting out a mouthful of blood in midair.    

    

"Your hands were stained with the blood of my disciple. Since you found traces of that bastard, there's no point in keeping you alive!" Bai Shangfei approached Tie Zheng, his tone filled with killing intent as he said, "Is a Spiritual Soul like you even worthy of trash like you? "They are just a bunch of useless trash who have failed many times!"    

    

One more punch and Tie Zheng, who was already injured, could no longer withstand it. His bones were shattered by the punch and he was thrown to the ground, unable to stand up again.    

    

"What's that bastard's name again?" Bai Shangfei did not bother looking at Tie Zheng as he asked the branch sect disciple beside him.    

    

"Chen Yu!"    

    

"Yes, he's called Chen Yu!" Bai Shangfei's eyes flashed as he said, "From the direction he left in, it's possible that he's going to the Strange Stone Forest. Junior Martial Brother Sun, go find Senior Martial Brother Chen Daolin and tell him where Chen Yu went. "Junior brother Liu, go back to Fengqiu and report Wang Zhen's death to Senior brother Feng and Senior Sister Situ!"    

    

"Alright!"    

    

"He repeatedly killed disciples of my sub-school. From Deng Zitong, Murong Qingwu, to the five juniors at the entrance of the valley last night, to the dozens of seniors at Fengqiu, and finally Zhang Gaoming, Wang Zhen, and Kang Jian!" Bai Shangfei's voice came out from the gaps between his teeth, "On his hands, there are at least ten or so sub-school disciples' lives. If this kind of person were to allow him to live past the City Battle Trial, where would the face of the branch sect be? "    

    

The bodies of the three warriors that came with Bai Shangfei quivered.    

    

"Go, gather at the Strange Stone Forest!" Bai Shangfei said: "On the way, if you meet any sub-disciples, tell them what that Chen Yu did. Un, find a senior and junior brother who have pretty good painting skills and draw that fellow's appearance for him to distribute. Even after searching through the entire secret realm, we still have to dig out that fellow and kill him to avenge our fellow disciples! "    

    

"Yes sir!"    

    

Watching the two sub-school disciples leave, Bai Shangfei finally dug a hole with the remaining sub-school disciple, buried Wang Zhen's body, and then chased in the direction Chen Yu left, leaving behind the dying Tie Zheng moaning weakly on the hill, his body devoid of anything, and he no longer had any chance of survival!
