Chapter 273: A bunch of damn things!
“No good!”
When he saw a piece of silver being ejected from Three Stone Peak,
Xia He was taken aback.
This silver was about the size of an infant’s fist, with a pockmarked surface. Apart from its silvery-white color, it looked like a porous rock.
Despite its unremarkable appearance,
as the Sect Leader of Heavenly Profound Gate, how could he not know what this stone was! This is Chaos Silver! A treasure that existed since the dawn of chaos! Coincidentally, the Heavenly Profound Mirror is also made of Chaos Silver.
When Chaos Silvers are close to each other, they generate mutual attraction and move closer together.
When two pieces of Chaos Silver collide, the resulting Chaotic force will destroy everything around them, including any magic arrays.
It might even cause the entire Three Stone Peak to be obliterated by this Chaotic force!
Xia He didn’t know where those guys had hidden the Chaos Silver, nor why it hadn’t been discovered before being brought into the prison.
But if the Heavenly Profound Mirror continued on its current path, it would surely destroy Three Stone Peak, breaking its seal and releasing the old fellows trapped inside! For Xia He, it was already too late.
The moment the Chaos Silver appeared, the two pieces generated an attraction.
The Heavenly Profound Mirror instantly accelerated, descending like a meteor.
“Boom!”
With a tremendous explosion echoing throughout Heavenly Profound Gate, the three massive stones atop Three Stone Peak were shattered into smithereens by the Heavenly Profound Mirror.
Ripples of Spiritual Energy surged outward.
The Heavenly Profound Mirror collided with the Chaos Silver.
Lightning erupted continuously across the mountain due to their collision.
Chunks of rocks were pulverized, mighty trees split in half, and flames ignited.
Monsters and animals in the forest ran about restlessly, unsure where to go but wanting to get as far away as possible.
Likewise, the magic array protecting the mountain began to crumble.
At the summit of Three Stone Peak, dark clouds gathered, growing thicker and darker, resembling the end of the world.
“Boom!”
Another deafening roar resounded as the final bolt of lightning pierced through the entire Three Stone Peak.
From its peak to its base, Three Stone Peak was split into two halves!
The Heavenly Profound Mirror and Chaos Silver floated silently in the air as if having vented their fury, the thunder gradually dissipating.
However, violent Sword Qi and Spiritual Energy began to coalesce atop Three Stone Peak.
Many disciples of Heavenly Profound Gate ceased their battles, looking up toward the direction of Three Stone Peak.
“It’s been ages since I’ve smelled such fresh air.”
A bearded elder with disheveled hair hovered in the air, taking deep breaths.
“Isn’t that right? After all, we’ve been locked up for over a thousand years,” Zhou Wanfeng, dressed in tattered clothes yet still retaining her charm, yawned, “I’ve been imprisoned for a thousand years, but I don’t feel much different. Strange, isn’t it?”
“Speaking of which,” Zhou Wanfeng pinched her dirty clothes disdainfully, “I really want to take a bath.”
“You can bathe anywhere you like. Starting today, you can stay submerged in a lake forever if you want,” said the Butcher, patting his belly, “But I haven’t eaten pork in so long; I used to feel nauseous at the sight of meat, but now I’m craving a feast.”
“Let’s deal with the situation first,” Qin Feng emerged from behind them, scanning all the disciples of Heavenly Profound Gate, finally focusing on a spear.
“That spear looks pretty decent.” Qin Feng reached out, causing the spear beside a corpse to fly toward him and land in his grasp.
“Let’s settle the matter at hand first,” the Flower Plucker stepped forward, smoothing his hair, “I wonder if the ladies have missed me.”
“I don’t know about the ladies missing you, but I sure want to kill you,” Zhou Wanfeng’s eyes curved mischievously.
“Ah,” the Flower Plucker shook his head, “I’ve explained countless times, Sister Zhou has misunderstood me. I only take someone’s body after winning their heart. I never do anything vulgar or forceful. Since we’ve just escaped, Sister Zhou must be bored. Let me accompany you for a bath to alleviate your loneliness.”
“Hmph.” Zhou Wanfeng chuckled coldly, her killing intent spreading.
The Flower Plucker quickly retreated, laughing nervously, “If Sister Zhou doesn’t want to, that’s fine. No need to be so intimidating, right?”
“Alright, alright, stop talking and go help already. Youngster Xu Ming seems to be struggling,” the Thief approached, grinning.
Only then did the others notice Xu Ming.
As the Thief had said, Xu Ming floated in the air, his sleeves torn, blood streaming from his arms, looking utterly disheveled.
“I’ll lend a hand first.”
The burly Bandit charged toward Xia He! “A bunch of damn things!” Xia He cursed.
The Bandit threw punch after punch at Xia He, forcing him to retreat step by step, spitting out mouthfuls of blood.
The Bandit wasn’t a Martial Artist.
He followed the path of a Qi Cultivator entirely.
What was strange about the Bandit was that he treated Spiritual Energy as Martial True Qi.
Although Xia He had absorbed much of the Bandit and others’ vital energy and fortune earlier, his strength wasn’t at its peak. Even a weakened camel surpasses a horse, let alone when they’re not dead yet.
The others also rushed toward Xia He’s direction.
Xu Chang remained calm, stroking his beard as he glanced at Wang Xuan, “Wow, that little girl from back then has grown into such a graceful young lady.”
“Three thousand years haven’t seen us, and I barely recognize you anymore,” Wang Xuan narrowed her eyes, clearly very displeased with Xu Chang.
“How’s your aunt?” Xu Chang asked.
“Dead,” Wang Xuan replied coldly.
“Is that so…” A trace of reminiscence flashed in Xu Chang’s eyes as he looked up at the sky, “She’s dead…”
Even Wang Xuan, who usually showed no emotional fluctuations, clenched her fists tightly, “Damn you!”
“Yes, it’s my fault,” Xu Chang nodded, “But I can’t die yet.”
“The matters ahead, leave them to me. They have nothing to do with you youngsters.”
Xu Chang casually grabbed a plain-looking magic sword from the ground.
He examined the sword in his hand, its bright blade reflecting Xu Chang’s face.
“Though I’ve grown old, the debts they owe cannot be avoided.
After all these years, it’s time for them to pay up.”
