Chapter 1257 Enemies on a Narrow Road
Chen Yang and Bei Xuan hid behind a large rock, watching everything quietly.
"The thing in Saint Moon Divine Venerable's arms looks so familiar?"
Chen Yang, who was originally observing the whereabouts of other Harmonious Core supreme experts, looked towards Saint Moon Divine Venerable's embrace upon hearing Bei Xuan's words.
As soon as Chen Yang saw the shape of the object, his mouth fell open.
"A bronze cauldron?"
"How can there be a bronze cauldron here?"
The moment Chen Yang saw the bronze cauldron, his heart was set on a single goal.
The bronze cauldron was an absolute treasure for the human race.
Saint Moon Divine Venerable absolutely could not be allowed to take this thing away!
...
"Saint Moon Divine Venerable? What is going on? Wasn't this supposed to be a Nascent Soul graveyard? Why is there only this one cauldron?"
The ninth-level Harmonious Core realm expert looked at the Winged God before him, then glanced worriedly at Saint Moon Divine Venerable.
He wasn't here to specifically target the Winged God; the one before him was one of the most powerful beings from the ancient inheritances.
Even among the Harmonious Core supreme experts, there were different levels of strength.
Others might not know, but having stayed outside the Spirit Domain for so many years, this ninth-level Harmonious Core expert understood the vast difference very well!
Those who had just reached the Harmonious Core supreme realm were insignificant before these old fellows who had lived for thousands of years.
And he was merely a ninth-level Harmonious Core expert!
The moment they met, the Winged God's wind blade had nearly killed him!
Upon hearing this, Saint Moon Divine Venerable did not get angry. Instead, he revealed a strange smile.
"Are you scared? Don't be. He's just a Great Perfection Harmonious Core. He's no match for you."
Saint Moon Divine Venerable's voice seemed to possess a peculiar magic, echoing in the ears of the ninth-level Harmonious Core expert.
The ninth-level Harmonious Core expert stared at Saint Moon Divine Venerable with wide, incredulous eyes, but in the next second, his gaze became hollow. "You... you are right!"
"Winged God! If I can kill the Winged God, I will be in the Nascent Soul realm!"
"I understand! I understand!"
With that, the ninth-level Harmonious Core expert charged directly at the Winged God.
The Winged God was startled by this bizarre situation.
A ninth-level Harmonious Core expert, simply on Saint Moon Divine Venerable's word, was coming to sacrifice himself?
The last time he encountered such a situation was in the Buddhist Kingdom!
This Saint Moon Divine Venerable and that Three Emperors Buddha were both wicked!
The bizarre techniques of the human race truly astonished the Winged God.
As for the ninth-level Harmonious Core expert charging at him, the Winged God paid him no mind.
Even though he was heavily injured, a mere ninth-level Harmonious Core? Could he possibly contend with him?
The Winged God condensed a wind blade before him and sent it directly at the ninth-level Harmonious Core expert.
But the ninth-level Harmonious Core expert seemed to feel no danger and charged forward blankly.
"Swish!"
A mist of blood appeared in mid-air.
However, a horrifying scene unfolded before the Winged God's eyes.
The ninth-level Harmonious Core expert, despite being split in two, was still charging towards him.
He was still alive!
The Winged God had never witnessed such a situation.
Although Harmonious Core experts were powerful, they ultimately had only one life.
Even though their bodies had strong resilience, they should not have survived after their bodies were separated from their vital organs!
"Pfft!"
The injury on the Winged God's abdomen instantly enraged him.
In an instant, tens of thousands of wind blades condensed again, slicing the ninth-level Harmonious Core expert before him into a bloody mist.
Meanwhile, Saint Moon Divine Venerable had already slipped away.
Just as the Winged God was about to pursue, the ninth-level Harmonious Core expert suddenly appeared before him again.
And this time, it wasn't just one, but nine!
Nine identical existences!
Their bodies were completely separated.
"Kill the Winged God!"
"Kill the Winged God!"
"Achieve the Nascent Soul realm!"
...
Everyone repeated these two sentences, their mental powers intermingling, their voices growing louder.
Seeing this, the Winged God was so startled that he quickly retreated two steps!
Such a bizarre scene made even the thousand-year-old Winged God's scalp tingle.
The Winged God could only use countless wind blades to kill them, but every time he killed one, more ninth-level Harmonious Core experts would appear!
Saint Moon Divine Venerable glanced back at the scene behind him and a smile curved his lips.
The plan was successful!
He had gone to great lengths to have people abduct so many wanderers from Yaodu Prefecture, and to gain the trust of beings like the Winged God, he had even revealed his secrets to them.
All for this very day!
The soul pills condensed from countless souls, combined with his illusionary techniques, and leveraging the power of the surrounding anomalies!
And with the bronze cauldron, what if they were Harmonious Core supreme experts?
Weren't they still his defeated opponents?
As for Shi Tianning's corpse, Saint Moon Divine Venerable did not take it with him.
Bringing Shi Tianning with him was for this very moment.
Someone who could die in his stead!
Shi Tianning had an extremely similar birth chart to Saint Moon Divine Venerable, and having been by Saint Moon Divine Venerable's side for so long, he had absorbed a heavy aura of Saint Moon Divine Venerable.
Golden Cicada Shedding Its Shell!
Even in術法 (shùfǎ), this was an extremely mysterious technique.
Saint Moon Divine Venerable's strength was not enough to fully execute the Golden Cicada Shedding Its Shell, so he simply used the simplest method.
That was, using a substitute as his shell!
Shi Tianning was this shell!
The Winged God was now entangled by countless souls and would not be able to escape in a short time.
Saint Moon Divine Venerable thought about going to find the Jianmu that Qin Yi had mentioned.
As for the Nascent Soul Spirit Marrow, Saint Moon Divine Venerable had no intention of looking for it.
If it remained by his side without being absorbed, it would be a death warrant.
Just as Saint Moon Divine Venerable was excitedly preparing to leave, two figures suddenly appeared before him.
Saint Moon Divine Venerable was stunned for a moment, but after sizing up Bei Xuan, he immediately recognized him.
As for the other person...
Chen Yang slowly removed his disguise.
"Isn't this Saint Moon Divine Venerable! Long time no see!" Chen Yang said with a smile, looking at Saint Moon Divine Venerable.
Seeing that it was Bei Xuan and Chen Yang, Saint Moon Divine Venerable immediately reacted and sneered, "Indeed, enemies on a narrow road!"
"I didn't expect you to be able to follow me all the way here."
As Saint Moon Divine Venerable spoke, a bolt of lightning erupted from his hand, striking directly at Chen Yang and Bei Xuan.
Saint Moon Divine Venerable did not believe that Chen Yang would show mercy upon seeing him.
In this situation, it was natural to strike first.
Bei Xuan waved his kasaya, blocking it in front of him.
As for Chen Yang, he used the Wood Thunder Sword to block the palm lightning technique.
This level of lightning technique, in front of the Wood Thunder Sword, was like a small stream flowing into the ocean, with no effect whatsoever.
"Golden Buddha Kasaya? A treasure of the Thunder Sound Temple? How do you have this thing!"
