Chapter 706: Chapter 382: Killing Intent, Courting Death!

"In such a short time, you’ve improved so much!"

Feeling the obvious change in the vortex of blood and Qi in his dantian, Luo Cheng couldn’t help but feel delighted.

He originally wanted to try using the Blood Spirit Soul Capturing Technique to save his fellow junior brothers and sisters, but he didn’t expect to gain such a harvest!

"That’s right, cultivating the Blood Spirit Soul Capturing Technique requires absorbing and refining blood Qi. The stronger the blood Qi, the faster the progress. That Blood Demon nearly transformed, it was an existence comparable to a True Master level expert; how could this Blood Evil Qi be simple?"

Understanding the key, Luo Cheng immediately became excited.

This place was filled with such rich Blood Evil Qi, making it undoubtedly an excellent opportunity to cultivate the Blood Spirit Soul Capturing Technique.

His current Blood Spirit Soul Capturing Technique had just been cultivated and couldn’t even be considered basic entry-level. He could barely manage to extract blood Qi and couldn’t capture it from a distance.

According to the secret manual, the Blood Spirit Soul Capturing Technique, when reaching its highest realm, could ignore the enemy’s Protective Essence Energy and extract blood Qi from a hundred feet away, extremely powerful!

Of course, this realm was still far too distant. Luo Cheng now only wanted to quickly cultivate the Blood Spirit Soul Capturing Technique to the realm of extracting blood Qi from a distance, as only then could it complement his devouring ability.

"Many thanks to Senior Brother Luo Cheng for your rescue."

"Thank you, Senior Brother!"

As Luo Cheng pondered, seven disciples of the Xuanyuan Sect had already recovered.

Upon learning the whole story, they all bowed to thank Luo Cheng. Their admiration and gratitude for him were beyond measure, reaching a level of worship.

If not for Luo Cheng, they would have been lost in a desire for slaughter, becoming demons who knew nothing but killing. Even if they recovered in the end, there would likely be severe aftereffects.

Luo Cheng gently nodded and said, "It’s too dangerous here. You should leave as soon as possible."

"Yes!"

After the recent ordeal, these disciples also wanted to leave this troublesome place as soon as possible. After bidding farewell, they immediately flew away into the distance.

They were outside Yunquan City, where things weren’t too chaotic, and there was little danger, so they quickly exited the battlefield.

Pang Yueyang, Zhu Lingmei, and three late-stage Awakening Vein Realm Xuanyuan Sect disciples did not move.

"You’re not leaving?" Luo Cheng asked.

Zhu Lingmei said, "Just now, people from the City Lord Mansion were recruiting Awakening Vein Realm experts to escort ordinary citizens out of the city. I want to stay and see if there’s anything I can help with."

Luo Cheng nodded, "Then take care. Once everything is handled, I will come to find you."

Pang Yueyang laughed, "Don’t worry, although our strength is not as great as yours, we can still protect ourselves. Compared to us, you should be more careful. You killed Yun Tianyan and became famous in one battle. While that’s a good thing, it could also become a source of trouble. Since earlier, those Fierce Cloud Sect disciples have been watching you, probably with bad intentions."

Luo Cheng, of course, had noticed and said indifferently, "Just a couple of stray cats and dogs. If they want to come, let them come; it’s an opportunity to send them to reunite with Yun Tianyan."

Pang Yueyang smiled wryly, the more he interacted with Luo Cheng, the more he realized how terrifying Luo Cheng was. Though he appeared calm and unperturbed, he possessed unmatched confidence and an ever-present sharp edge that could draw blood at any moment. Once unleashed, this edge was enough to change the heavens and earth!

Luo Cheng was concerned about the safety of Ninth Princess Jin Yuxi and bid farewell to the others, heading towards the direction where the Luoxia Sect disciples were located.

In mid-air, Luo Cheng quietly released his soul power.

The powerful soul power immediately spread like water, covering the chaotic battlefield, with any corner under his perception.

Roar!

Suddenly.

A roar that seemed human yet inhuman sounded ahead, as a middle-aged Awakening Vein Realm expert with blood-red eyes, wielding a large blade, charged straight at Luo Cheng, the blade’s edge drenched in blood, surrounded by shattered bodies lying everywhere.

Clang!

Luo Cheng drew his sword from its scabbard, its tip leaping once in the void.

Swoosh!

The rapidly charging middle-aged swordsman’s body remained in diving posture, but his head slipped off from his neck.

Luo Cheng beckoned, collected the opponent’s storage ring, placed his palm against the body, and activated the Blood Spirit Soul Capturing Technique. Under the invisible suction, blood surged out of the corpse, flooding into Luo Cheng’s palm!

Luo Cheng immediately felt the vortex of blood and Qi in his body grow a bit stronger.

This change was extremely subtle, so subtle that Luo Cheng had to exert all his soul power to sense it.

Luo Cheng muttered, "Just ordinary Awakening Vein Realm expert’s blood Qi, the effect is much less. I still need to absorb more Blood Evil Qi."

At this moment, Luo Cheng suddenly sensed several cold killing intents. His soul power radiated out, finding several sneaky Fierce Cloud Sect disciples among the crowd.

"These guys really won’t give up!"

Luo Cheng sneered and ignored it, continuing to fly forward.

Among the crowd, seven or eight Fierce Cloud Sect disciples gathered together.

These Fierce Cloud Sect disciples were all experts, all at the Ninth Layer Realm of Awakening Vein, with the lowest cultivation at the Ninth Layer Middle Stage.

"Senior Brother Si, are we really going to kill Luo Cheng?"

A Fierce Cloud Sect disciple watched Luo Cheng’s back, gulped, and asked the cold young man in the center, "Even the senior brother wasn’t Luo Cheng’s opponent. With our strength, I’m afraid..."

The cold young man, with the highest cultivation, was a Peak of Ninth Layer Realm expert and the core leader among them. He sneered and said:

"What are you afraid of? An obvious arrow is easy to dodge, while a hidden arrow is hard to guard against! In the end, he is just a Late Stage Ninth Layer expert. No matter how strong his swordsmanship is, his defense can’t be that strong. Here is so chaotic, and he is still moving towards the city. As long as we seize an opportunity and attack together by surprise, even if he has ten lives, it won’t be enough for us to kill. Can you swallow the humiliation, letting a Xuanyuan Sect waste ride on our heads?"

"Senior Brother Si is right!"

"Let’s do it! Just thinking of those Xuanyuan Sect disciples’ faces makes me want to cut this guy into pieces!"

Several Fierce Cloud Sect disciples were filled with killing intent. Arrogant and accustomed, they had never suffered such humiliation, despising Luo Cheng.

"Follow him! Be careful not to get discovered."

Having made up their minds, they immediately tailed Luo Cheng silently.

Under soul power perception, Luo Cheng already discovered the direction of the Luoxia Sect disciples, about two or three miles within the city, and immediately accelerated towards the city.

"Kill!"

The further he went into the city, the more frenzied people became. Luo Cheng had just arrived above the city wall when immediately three figures with blood-red eyes attacked him head-on.

Swoosh swoosh swoosh!

The Flame Jade Sword leapt continuously in the void, and streaks of Sword Qi surged wildly. The three charging figures were successively slashed into halves, blood splattering everywhere.

"Capture!"

With the increasing frequency of using it, Luo Cheng became more adept at the Blood Spirit Soul Capturing Technique, spreading his five fingers to grab the corpses. Between his fingers, blood light gleamed, and the blood instantly turned into a crimson breath, merging into his palm.

Boom!

Tossing the bodies aside, Luo Cheng suddenly stopped and looked back, his face emotionless, "Since you’re stubbornly courting death, you have only yourselves to blame!"

Originally, Luo Cheng didn’t want to kill more, hoping that these Fierce Cloud Sect disciples would retreat in the face of difficulty. But instead of showing any intent to leave, they continued to follow behind.

Clearly, the other party was plotting something against him. When facing schemes, Luo Cheng’s approach was always straightforward: a quick strike to cut through the mess!

"Kill!"

With a swing of the sword, the air surged wildly, and a Sword Qi Tornado appeared out of thin air, rushing towards a direction below the city wall with lightning speed!
