Chapter 1452: Chapter 1445: Demon Clan Intelligence
"Little bastard! How dare you!?"
Qiao Que’s hair and beard stood on end as he glared and roared in anger, furious that a little worm dared to bare its fangs at them?
Now this little worm not only wanted to bare its fangs, but also to devour people!
The space seemed frozen, within a radius of ten feet, everything slowed infinitely, the pure white silk pierced the void, carrying a sacred yet eerie air.
Within this space, only Chen Nan was unaffected. He turned his head, his deep eyes hiding a chilling murderous intent, so intense that it made Qiao Que’s heart tremble.
However, this time, Chen Nan’s target wasn’t him.
Zhang Sen, still his scruffy old man self, now had a look of terror, his body seeming out of control, unable to move.
The previous Spirit Soul Attack had caused him great pain, his mind a chaotic mess.
Chen Nan remembered how this old man had beaten him mercilessly, like treating a stray dog, which made the murderous intent in his eyes even more intense.
A flash of cold light appeared in his hand, and the Sword Chenyuan materialized in his grasp, its blade’s chill stabbing into his eyes like needles, an indescribable aura abruptly rising from his body.
It was an aura of desolation, ancient as if some ancient deity was awakening, a massive phantom faintly appeared behind him with three different Demon Clan phantoms.
An incredible power erupted from Chen Nan’s body, converging in his hands, lifting the Sword Chenyuan high, seemingly piercing through the darkness of this place.
The next moment, the longsword slashed downward, Sword Qi rampant!
Blood appeared in the middle of Zhang Sen’s body, quickly soaking his clothes, though he finally came to his senses, it was already too late.
The silk dissipated, the power that froze time vanished, everyone regained their movement, but Zhang Sen’s wound rapidly split open, blood spraying out.
Even though he had the cultivation of a Golden Core Realm Perfection, it was to no avail because his simplicity was directly cut open by Chen Nan’s shocking sword.
With a flick of his hand, Chen Nan wrapped the Shadowless Silk around Yun Ying’s body, and golden dots of light densely appeared around him, swimming like tadpoles.
"Magic Brush Flower!" he growled softly.
Mei Gui, who had some understanding of talisman dao, suddenly narrowed her pupils, recognizing that Chen Nan was drawing talismans in mid-air, and over a hundred spirit talismans were being drawn simultaneously.
This required not only a cultivator to practice talisman dao but also stringent demands on the divine soul, to use a hundred minds at once to draw over a hundred spirit talismans.
Chen Nan’s speed of drawing talismans was extremely fast, within the blink of an eye, the spirit talismans were complete, and Yun Ying had already been pulled back into his arms.
"Just wait, some scores need to be settled one by one!"
As his words fell, his body transformed into a bolt of lightning, shooting towards the horizon, while the hundred Seventh Grade Spiritual Talismans flew toward Taiyin.
Guo Qing and the others wanted to pursue Chen Nan, but ultimately they were worried about Taiyin being damaged, affecting their steps into the Nascent Soul, so they all instinctively blocked in front of Taiyin.
Boom!
A talisman exploded, seemingly triggering a chain reaction, all the talismans activated simultaneously, fire, thunder, ice, and other forces erupted together, leveling the area within a hundred feet!
When the dust settled, only a hundred-foot crater was left, charred within, and though Guo Qing and the others tried their best to defend, they were still shaken by the talismans’ power.
They each carried injuries of varying sizes, with Zhang Sen, who was cut in half by Chen Nan’s sword, leaving no remains.
"Damn it, damn it!"
Guo Qing seethed with rage, striking the mountain with a palm, resulting in a massive hole and rubble scattered.
They had plotted for a hundred years, to safely elevate the Taiyin Body to the Golden Core Realm Fifth Layer, they didn’t hesitate to don fake masks, accompanying Yun Ying for over a century.
Every day within this century, they wished to directly elevate Yun Ying to the Fifth Layer of the Golden Core Realm, but they still adhered to Taiyin’s requirements.
But at the critical moment, not only was Yun Ying rescued, but even Zhang Sen died miserably on the spot, causing the anger in their hearts to almost break through the sky.
Guo Qing moved, but it agitated his internal injuries, blood trailing down his mouth, his disheveled appearance somewhat pathetic.
"Find him for me, at any cost, I want that little bastard found and torn to pieces!"
"No need."
The always silent Taiyin suddenly spoke. It wasn’t human, lacking human emotions; even when Chen Nan acted, it coldly watched.
For it, there was no right or wrong, everything stemmed from its desire for a physical body, nothing more.
"No need?" Guo Qing’s eyes widened, losing patience even with Taiyin, "We waited a hundred years, should we let it go for nothing?"
Taiyin shook its head, "No, I mean, that cultivator named Chen Nan will come back."
"How is that possible?" Qiao Que wore a skeptical look, "Unless he’s out of his mind, why would he come back? We misjudged, failing to see how deeply he was hiding."
"Had I known, he should have been killed when Yun Ying brought him back."
"He will come back," Taiyin still spoke in its unhurried tone, "When he looked at me, his eyes showed greed, I could see, he very much wants to possess me."
