The feeling of immense fear grew stronger, and Yu Rong finally knew where the threat was coming from: the arrows in front of him.

Yu Rong instinctively wanted to dodge, but as soon as he moved, he realized it was too late to avoid it.

His intact arm clutched the long sword, blocking it in front of his chest...

Bang!

Yu Rong let out a miserable cry as the arrow pierced through his chest.

But the arrow's momentum did not decrease.

Whoosh!

The sound of the arrow piercing through his body was muffled and heavy.

At this moment, Yu Rong finally saw Xu Guang.

Yu Rong's eyes were almost tearing apart, and his teeth clattered as he gritted them.

However, a wave of weakness and powerlessness surged throughout his body.

He knew he was going to... die.

Ignoring the urge to continue killing Shen Muyu, Yu Rong decisively turned around and, with his severed arm and seriously injured body, frantically fled into the distance.

...

"Xu Guang, at the service of Senior Sister of Jiufeng Mountain."

Xu Guang landed on the ground, standing beside Shen Muyu, and spoke softly.

Shen Muyu was pale and looked weak; she looked towards Xu Guang, her eyes full of caution.

Xu Guang chuckled lightly, "Please rest assured, Senior Sister. Yu Rong can't escape. The wilderness is dangerous, please follow General Wei."

Just as Shen Muyu was about to speak, she suddenly felt a tremendous force from behind, sweeping her entire body.

When she reappeared, her view was suddenly much higher.

Slowly looking down, a natural fear spread from the depths of her heart.

Is this... the Kunlun Beast tamed by Xu Guang?

She hadn't stayed in Qingshuo County for long and had only heard of the Great Beast, but this was her first time seeing it.

She didn't expect it to be so awe-inspiring!

A trace of unusual excitement flashed in her eyes, like a suppressed thrill.

"You..."

"Follow General Wei, Senior Sister. I, Xu Mou... have to kill someone."

...

Huff~ Huff~!

The trees in front of him retreated rapidly.

"Damn it, damn it! Damn!"

Yu Rong's face was pale as he sped through the forest, having first had an arm cut off by Xu Guang and then hit by a palm from the Wine Daoist, his blood marrow nearly stagnated, his abdominal area feeling as if a long sword constantly pierced through; that was the Wine Daoist's Yangjin Qi Force.

Thus, Shen Muyu relentlessly hunted him.

If he were unscathed, he wouldn't really fear Shen Muyu.

But now...

He wasn't sure how his senior brother was faring.

In great peril, he couldn't afford to care about so much.

Everything was doomed. This Qingshuo County, clearly an obscure, poor place, but full of bizarre events. In Zouchuan Dao, he had been hiding and never once caught by the Wine Daoist, yet he ended up being hounded here.

A face flashed in his mind — Xu Guang!

Damn it!

If he doesn't die today, he will definitely flay and dismember that person!

Yu Rong's eyes turned red. Hatred, unwillingness, and anger lingered in his heart.

He knew he had to escape. If his senior brother was killed by the Wine Daoist, he would be next.

Thinking of the Wine Daoist's earlier palm...

Terror flashed in his eyes.

The next moment, a strong wind swept by.

Xu Guang appeared, holding a long sword.

Yu Rong's gaze was icy as he forced himself to hold onto his last breath, like a beast fighting to the death.

He's going to die, but before dying, he wants to kill Xu Guang!

"Didn't expect you to hide so deeply?"

Xu Guang squinted slightly, only sighing inwardly at the vigorous life force of a Seventh-Grade Expert.

The Deep Blue Longsword unsheathed, slicing a blue light through the air.

Yu Rong's arms were almost wasted; he raised his right leg, and the Blood Armor appeared.

Xu Guang wielding the long sword like a dragon, the wind roaring, he had little time. His aim was not to kill Yu Rong but to learn something from him.

For instance, the Celestial Register, the Jade Cicada Robe, or the Innate Spiritual Object under the meteorite.

These were the real treasures.

Yu Rong swallowed the blood rising in his throat, his body shaking, forcibly suppressing the wound from the arrow's penetration.

Watching Xu Guang's sword technique, he finally understood the terrifying extent of Xu Guang's hidden strength.

So skilled at concealing, he was a natural candidate for the Holy Sect.

But at this moment, he only wanted to kill Xu Guang, even if it meant dying together with him.

In this state, he stirred up all his qi and blood, disregarding his numerous injuries as he charged madly at Xu Guang.

The long sword like a dragon, Yu Rong used all his strength to block Xu Guang's long sword.

But...

A strange hissing sound emerged.

As if a silver snake slithered by.

The dragon might be just and the snake deceitful, the snake hidden behind the dragon, and even an expert like Yu Rong couldn't escape the snake sword's killing intent.

Yu Rong's only remaining arm fell.

"Ah! Damn, damn, damn!"

Staring in shock at Xu Guang's deep blue and soft sword in both hands...

"What kind of sword technique is this?"

"Dragon and Snake Splitting Light."

Xu Guang said with a smile, seizing the moment of weakness and slight distraction, he suddenly grabbed Yu Rong by the throat.

In a flash, the Truth-Telling Pill was shoved into his mouth.

Having used the Truth-Telling Pill several times before, he had made improvements to it in his spare time, and in Yu Rong's current state, it should take effect.

Indeed, only three moments passed before Yu Rong's mouth started drooling.

"Do you know what the meteorite is? What's exactly buried under it?"

"It's... it's dragon blood, left by the Great Zhou Grand Ancestor who slew the Divine Dragon 800 years ago. Under the dragon blood, an innate spiritual object was nurtured..."

"What exactly is the Jade Cicada Robe?"

"It's Elder Yuchan's treasure, essential for practicing the Jade Cicada Molt Divine Technique. The Jade Cicada Molt Divine Technique is an extremely rare Spirit Martial Dao that can use spiritual objects to transmute the divine soul, with many mysterious methods, greatly extending lifespan, and even rumored that when deep into the practice, it can control life and death, rejuvenate, being a divine technique that everyone in the Jianghu dreams of...

Xu Guang asked one by one, and Yu Rong answered each question.

"One last question, what is the Celestial Register? And what does the so-called 'Yu' mean?"

"The Celestial Register is a great treasure used by the Great Zhou to suppress the world. It can control mountains and rivers, ghosts, and monsters. The one holding the Celestial Register can absorb innate qi from heaven and earth and cultivate innate treasures themselves, receiving the blessing of fate from the unseen world, gaining the Life Chart fruit outcome. Above the Main Position, one can enter the Celestial Register Palace.

The Celestial Register in the same grade has three kinds of positions: Main Position, Reserve Position, and Extra Position.

The Main and Reserve Positions can be promoted, Extra Position can supplement Reserve Position when it is vacant. The holder of the Celestial Register can earn Celestial Merit through killing ghosts and evildoers, and those with distinguished Celestial Merit would receive blessings from heaven and earth."

Xu Guang nodded, finally gaining a precise understanding of the Celestial Register and the various treasures he obtained from Wei Shuangnian.

Especially the changes to the Celestial Register that day, he finally understood the exact meaning, it referred to the Ninth-Grade Celestial Register where the Main Position was absent, the Reserve could supplement the Main, and the Extra could supplement the Reserve.

Gaining Celestial Merit by slaying ghosts and gaining blessings? Xu Guang pondered, so the so-called Hosted Soldiers is a kind of blessing.

Wei Shuangnian was really a rich man, to have so many treasures.

"How can one refine the Celestial Register?"

"It requires the blood of the Great Zhou Imperial Family..."

Xu Guang's heart tightened, "Where is the Great Zhou Imperial Family now? Were they hidden by you?"

"I don't know."

This differed from Xu Guang's situation. He didn't use any Great Zhou Imperial Family blood, only the methods of a Feng Shui Master.

"Is there any other way?"

"The Daoist Sect has other refinement methods, I don't know them."

Xu Guang sighed with relief, worried his way of refinement was wrong and could cause disaster. Now it seems that refining the Celestial Register is not the only way.

"What's the most precious thing on you? Tell me?"

"I... have practiced the Yin Nan Pure Yang Celestial Sensing Secret Technique, which greatly increases the senses and allows for crisis perception..."

Xu Guang wanted to continue the questioning, only for Yu Rong to suddenly convulse all over.

He felt regret, there were still many questions to be asked, and the drug dose wasn't quite right.

Fortunately, the things he wanted to know were all clarified.

Just when Xu Guang thought Yu Rong was finished, his convulsing body suddenly paused, and his eyes suddenly rolled back, showing only the whites.

As if in an instant, he had become another person.

"Who dares to kill my disciple..."

Bang!

Xu Guang slapped and shattered Yu Rong's head.

His heart was pounding wildly.

Damn, is this the means of these demonic people?
