Chapter 594 Chapter 594 – Intruder
‘Should I say that it’s worthy of being a Heavenly Weapon?’
After checking up and down to make sure that there was nothing wrong with his body, Xiao Han heaved a sigh of relief. This thought flashed through his mind.
At this moment, as his heart gradually calmed down, he turned to look at the corpse in front of him. Liu Xiong’s corpse was still there. At this moment, it had already turned into a dried corpse. It looked a little scary.
Looking at Liu Xiong’s corpse, Xiao Han pondered for a moment. The corpse definitely had to be disposed of. The competition within the Qionghua Sword sect was very serious, but the killing between disciples was also not allowed.
If the matter of the disciples killing each other was exposed, the consequences would be extremely serious. Therefore, the corpse had to be disposed of.
In addition, there were traces nearby. If it could be disposed of, it had to be disposed of as well. Otherwise, if someone found traces in the vicinity and connected them to the Heavenly Weapon, it would be troublesome.
Even if there was only a small probability that the Heavenly Weapon in his hand would be exposed, Xiao Han did not want to risk it.
In his heart, the Heavenly Weapon in his hand was already his hope for the future. He absolutely could not expose it. Once it was exposed, with his current strength, he would definitely not be able to defend it. It would definitely be taken away by others.
This thought flashed through his mind, and he quickly took action.
He burned Liu Xiong’s corpse in one go. After that, he looked around the place and cleared the remaining traces. Only then did he leave with satisfaction.
After leaving this place, he purposely took a long detour and walked further away. Then, he pretended as if nothing had happened and walked to where he was before.
However, after returning to the starting point, he made a discovery.
“What’s going on?”
Returning to the starting point, Xiao Han frowned and sniffed around. A cultivator’s sense of smell was also sensitive, far stronger than an ordinary mortal.
At this moment, Xiao Han keenly sensed that unique aura.
“Smell of blood!”
Sensing the dense bloody smell in the surroundings, his face changed, and he already felt that something was wrong.
This trip to the Sword Tomb was a trial for the Qionghua Sword Sect. Logically speaking, the ones who entered this place should be the people from the Qionghua Sword Sect.
Why would there be a stench of blood here? Could it be that something big had happened here without him knowing?
This thought flashed through his mind. Following that, light footsteps could be heard from behind him.
A figure was walking toward Xiao Han.
“Looks like there’s still another one here.”
A burst of light laughter came from afar and entered Xiao Han’s ears. This voice was very soft, just like the voice of an ordinary woman. It was very gentle, but it made one’s heart inexplicably shiver.
Xiao Han subconsciously looked over and saw a woman in red standing there. She was currently walking toward him.
A powerful aura spread out, and a stifling majesty spread out in all directions. It crossed Xiao Han’s chest, making him almost unable to breathe.
“Foundation Established!”
Looking at the woman walking toward him, Xiao Han’s pupils constricted, and the ancient sword in his hand instantly tightened. At this moment, he already realized that something was wrong
An inexplicable bloody smell, a Sword Tomb that should only have been entered by the disciples of the Qionghua Sword sect, and an unfamiliar Foundation Established cultivator who appeared out of nowhere… All these clues undoubtedly indicated that the situation before them was not good.
The other party chuckled lightly.
“What’s your name, little boy?”
The woman before him was smiling. She looked at Xiao Han and said softly, “I want to find Miss Song Qingruo of your sect. I wonder if you can lead the way?”
As she spoke, an invisible spiritual power surged out and enveloped Xiao Han as if wanting to distort his spirit and turn him into a puppet.
Xiao Han’s expression started to become dull. His every move became stiffer and stiffer as if he had been hit.
However, a warm current surged out from the ancient sword in the next moment, startling him.
“That was close!
‘She was looking for Song Qingruo. Is she here for senior Song?”
Xiao Han was jolted awake. At this moment, various thoughts flashed through his mind. However, on the surface, he still looked dull. It was as if he had been affected and had become a puppet. “Yes… Ah…”
A sincere smile appeared on his face, and he stuttered as he spoke.
Seeing this, the smile on the woman’s face became even wider. “Then bring me there…
“When I see that person, I’ll give you a reward…”
Her gentle voice was like soft cotton, making one’s heart itch, and it had a huge temptation. The dazed look on Xiao Han’s face became even more intense. He maintained it like this as if he was about to speak.
The red-clothed woman smiled contemptuously. She turned around and left with Xiao Han. She did not care about Xiao Han in front of her.
After all, in her opinion, Xiao Han’s cultivation was weak. The gap between the two was too big. Even if she stood there and Xiao Han attacked her at will, he might not be able to damage her. What was there to worry about?
The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer. Xiao Han maintained a dazed look on his face as if he was subconsciously walking forward. Behind him, the red-clothed woman was gradually approaching
In the next moment, an ancient sword was suddenly brandished. The long sword swung down and suddenly slashed down, stabbing toward the red-clothed woman. It used up all the strength in Xiao Han’s body.
The speed of this sword was very fast. Under the red-clothed woman’s negligence, it almost instantly landed on her body, directly slashing down towards her neck.
Everything happened too fast. In the next moment, crimson blood spilled. A beautiful woman’s head fell from a distance. Her face still had a look of shock, as if she did not dare to believe that she had fallen just like that.
“You…”
Everything happened too quickly, making it impossible for people to react. When the woman’s head fell to the ground, Xiao Han let out a long sigh of relief.
“I succeeded…”
Looking at the woman’s corpse in front of him, his heart was filled with joy. Fortunately, when he was awakened by the ancient sword and regained his senses, he understood that his only hope of survival was the other party’s carelessness and the power of the Heavenly Weapon.
With the power of the Heavenly Weapon, once it struck the other party’s body, even the vitality of a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator would not be able to stop it. It would be cut in half. The facts before his eyes also proved that he had made the right bet.
Under his feet, the woman’s corpse, who had died with her eyes open, was still lying there. However, at this moment, a change gradually occurred.
A blood-red light bloomed. Then, the entire corpse rapidly withered like before. The essence within seemed completely absorbed, just like Liu Xiong’s corpse from before.
The warm current within Xiao Han’s body appeared once again with this process. It was exceptionally clear and obvious. However, compared to the previous time, the current was much stronger, and it strengthened Xiao Han even more.
The warm current continued to appear, and then with a light sound, a barrier was broken, and he directly entered a brand new level.
“The sixth level of the Qi Refinement Stage…”
Feeling his situation, Xiao Han was stunned, and then his face revealed an ecstatic expression.
Before this, he had been trapped in the fifth level of the Qi Refinement Stage for quite some time.
According to his original estimation, if he wanted to advance to the sixth level of the Qi Refinement Realm, he would need at least a year under ideal circumstances.
But now, just killing two people had allowed him to directly breakthrough that level and step into this level. It was equivalent to directly reducing more than a year’s hard training. The time and energy saved were not just a little bit.
His strength began to recover and expand rapidly. This rapid increase in speed made Xiao Han unable to help but have an impulse to rush out and directly start a massacre.
He wanted to continuously kill until the Foundation Establishment Stage, killing until the Spirit Transformation Stage. He couldn’t help but think so in his heart.
But very quickly, reason overcame desire, forcing him to turn back and calm down. Looking at the dried corpse of the woman in front of him, he realized that the situation was very dangerous, so he prepared to leave.
Before leaving, he groped around the woman’s corpse. No matter what, the woman in front of him was also a Foundation Established Cultivator, so her wealth must be abundant. She was much stronger than a weakling like Xiao Han.
Xiao Han obtained several hundred spirit stones and a magic tool from the woman in front of him. The magic tool was a turtle-shaped shield with a ghastly sword mark. It seemed to have been cut by the ancient sword.
From its looks, not only had the ancient sword cut off the woman’s head, but it had also cut open the magic tool protecting her body. It didn’t even have the slightest effect.
This made Xiao Han’s heart tremble. He had a better understanding of the power of the ancient sword.
After tidying up the remaining belongings in the corpse, he left. He quickly found a hidden corner to hide, wanting to find out what had happened here.
Soon after, three months had passed.
Early morning, the sun shone on the night, bringing light. Under a waterfall, a man’s face was filled with disbelief as he looked at the figure in f collapsed unwillingly.
Standing in front of him was an ordinary-looking young man holding an ancient sword. Judging from the aura, the difference between the two was very big. One was already in the Foundation Establishment Stage, while the other was still in the Qi Refinement Stage.
However, the one who fell was in the Foundation Establishment stage, while the one who survived was only in the Qi Refining Stage. This was unexpected.
“Finally, another one was killed.”
Looking at the man who fell in front of him, Xiao Han secretly heaved a sigh of relief. This thought flashed through his mind.
At this moment, three months had passed, and the aura on his body had already changed greatly.
