“He actually forced Zhuo Hui to this extent in such a short period of time.” The Second Elder was shocked. This mysterious expert was far more terrifying than they had imagined.
The First Elder also noticed Fourth Elder Zhuo Hui’s situation. Her expression also became solemn. Her gaze sharpened. She opened her palm, pressed down hard on the pit below the Fourth Elder.
The violent wind in all directions immediately condensed, turning into an incomparably huge wind blade. It slashed towards the pit.
“Let’s go!” After she was done, she did not look at the results. She immediately controlled the surrounding wind and fled with the Second Elder and Fourth Elder without looking back.
Boom!
The huge wind blade that slashed down dissipated and exploded under the collision with Xiao Shi.
Xiao Shi flew up from the pit and floated in the air. He did not chase after them after seeing them escape. His eyes under the cloak narrowed slightly, and his gaze was deep.
Pfft!
Fourth Elder vomited blood with a pale face. The many shield shadows surrounding his body had already dissipated, and he became dispirited. The burden of casting so many shield shadows at once was extremely huge. It had far exceeded his limits.
Ever since he stepped into the Martial Soul Realm, no one had been able to force him to this extent. Fortunately, they were trying to test them this time. He was not going to fight to the death.
“What kind of path does this mysterious expert take? He actually forced you to this extent in such a short period of time?” The First Elder and the Second Elder asked solemnly.
They could tell that the other party was good at speed, and it was just right to restrain the Fourth Elder, but they did not expect the other party to make the Fourth Elder so miserable in such a short period of time.
“…I suspect that he’s a Body Tempering cultivator!” The Fourth Elder’s voice was low and hoarse.
“A Body Tempering cultivator?!” The First Elder and the Second Elder were shocked. They subconsciously felt that it was impossible.
Body Tempering cultivators were extremely rare in the entire Xingluo Territory. Especially a Body Tempering cultivator with such strength. Not to mention in their Tiandou Province, even in the Xingluo Province, they might not be able to see it.
“…From the beginning to the end, 1 didn’t sense any soul power fluctuations from him, but his attack can break through the shield shadow formed by my soul power. Apart from Body Tempering cultivators, 1 can’t think of any other possibility.” The Fourth Elder said in a deep voice.
The First Elder and the Second Elder took a deep breath at the same time. They were very clear that the shield shadow formed by the Fourth Elder’s soul power had an extremely powerful defense. Even if they wanted to destroy the Fourth Elder’s shield shadow, they had to use all their strength.
However, the other party had broken through the Fourth Elder’s shield shadow with an attack without the additional soul power. This was indeed something that only a Martial Soul Realm’s Body Tempering cultivator could do!
Although there were not many Body Tempering cultivators in the entire Xingluo Territory, they had a certain understanding of them. They knew how powerful a Body Tempering cultivator was.
“If he’s a Body Tempering cultivator, then it’s very likely that he’s not from the Xingluo Territory.” The Second Elder’s expression was solemn, and he was even more puzzled. “Where did Luo Jun and Tong Binhong find such a mysterious expert?”
The First Elder and Fourth Elder shook their heads. They could not figure it out either.
“No matter what, the three of them are no longer something we can deal with. We can only let the Shadow Master suppress them.” The First Elder said.
The Second Elder and the Fourth Elder nodded. When they returned to the Swift Shadow Palace, the First Elder arrived in front of the huge stone door where the Shadow Master was in seclusion.
“Shadow Master, something happened!” The First Elder said through the stone door. Her voice directly passed through the stone door and reached the Shadow Master’s ears.
Ever since the Shadow Master of the Swift Shadow Palace was severely injured by an foreign Martial Soul Realm expert, he had been in seclusion to recuperate. If it was not an especially important matter, the First Elder would not disturb him.
“What is it?” The Shadow Master’s voice came from the stone door. The First Elder immediately told the Shadow Master about Luo Jun and Tong Binhong’s betrayal and independence, as well as the information they had obtained from the battle with them. “He controlled the Ancient Cang’e Tree? And with the help of a mysterious Body Tempering expert?”
Zap, zap…
Under a low sound, the stone door opened, revealing the tall and burly figure of the Shadow Master. Compared to before he entered seclusion, the Shadow Master seemed to have aged a little more. His white hair fell to the ground. After touching the ground, it fused into the shadows on the ground. His eyebrows hung on both sides of his face.
“Shadow Master, your injuries…” The First Elder looked at the Shadow Master worriedly.
“It’s fine. It’s enough for me to suppress them.” The Shadow Master slowly stood up from the ground. “The reason why Luo Jun and Tong Binhong dared to rebel and stand on their own is probably because they think that 1 can’t do anything to them after being severely injured.
“Heh… Their understanding of the spiritual sense stage is still not enough. Even if I’m seriously injured, it’s easy for me to suppress the three of them. Although the spiritual sense stage and the soul awakening stage are both at the Martial Soul Realm, the difference between the two is far greater than they imagined.
“However, the Ancient Cang’e Tree… is more or less a hidden danger. To be safe, the three of you will attack with me and end the battle quickly.”
The First Elder nodded. With Luo Jun and Tong Binhong’s understanding of the Swift Shadow Palace, since they dared to rebel, they must be prepared to face the Shadow Master. And they were definitely relying on the Ancient Cang’e Tree.
However, even the Ancient Cang’e Tree could not push their strength to the level of being able to match his spiritual sense stage..
