Chapter 681: Chapter 279: After Years Apart, Terrifying Beyond Measure! (Part 3)
"Heh heh, we’ll chop off Chen Xuantian’s head and use it as a night pot!"
A group of Jianghu experts laughed loudly.
Wind King, Rain King, along with a host of Hall Masters, were filled with both shock and anger, their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.
But faced with their families being captured and surrounded on all sides, they seemed to have no other recourse.
At this moment, besides putting up one last desperate fight, there was no other way out!
Just as Wind King and Rain King, their eyes turning red and their auras surging, were preparing for a deathly battle, an overwhelming Spiritual Power suddenly invaded from not far away, rolling in like an endless tide, engulfing everyone in an instant.
Buzz!
Except for the bald big man, all the Jianghu figures instantly had vacant expressions, muddled and dull, their minds buzzing as if they had turned into puppets, unable to move a single muscle.
Soon after, the souls of these people seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, losing control and flying wildly out of their bodies, letting out terrified screams, gathering towards the rear area.
This eerie scene left the bald big man, Wind King, Rain King, and others wide-eyed in disbelief.
They quickly turned their heads to look.
They saw that the vast number of souls were rapidly disappearing into a tall and sturdy figure clad in a black robe with a stern visage in the rear, as if being sucked in like a whale drinking.
This person was about 1.89 meters tall, with broad shoulders and a profound aura, walking towards them step by step.
A cold, indifferent voice seemed to pierce directly into the depths of one’s soul, eliminating any thought of resistance.
"Is it now that any Tom, Dick, or Harry can bully my Black Lotus Holy Sect?"
Jiang Shi walked step by step, his tall and broad figure stopping in front of the bald strong man. In the sunlight, a large black shadow instantly enveloped the bald man’s body, revealing only a pair of sharp and terrifying eyes.
Upon encountering Jiang Shi’s gaze, the bald man was instantly overwhelmed with terror, trembling, feeling as if his soul would fly out at any moment. Upon clearly seeing Jiang Shi’s face, he became even more shock-stricken.
"Jiang... Jiang Shi!"
"Jiang Right Envoy!"
Wind King and Rain King both exclaimed in shock, unable to believe their eyes.
Even the battered and weary Chen Xuantian, his head bowed low and nearly dying, slowly raised his head again, painfully opening his eyes to look over.
Whack!
Jiang Shi twisted his large hand, instantly covering the bald man’s face, amid his terrified screams and pleas for mercy, crushing his head on the spot.
Soon after, a black soul was instantly absorbed by Jiang Shi.
Memories from the man’s mind began rapidly playing out in Jiang Shi’s mind, quickly revealing all the causes and effects.
Jiang Shi frowned, discarding the bald man’s corpse, and with a step, he appeared before the old Sect Leader Chen Xuantian.
"No need to heal me, my five internal organs are shattered, and my end is near. No one can save me..."
Chen Xuantian’s voice was labored, but he looked at Jiang Shi with relief, saying, "You’ve returned. Seeing you again before I die, I have no regrets!"
"Old Sect Leader, rest assured, I can ensure you won’t die!"
Jiang Shi placed his hand on Chen Xuantian’s chest, and a surging power had already poured forth, like an endless tide, infusing into Chen Xuantian’s body to stabilize his organs and restore his vitality.
His cultivation had already reached Nirvana, advancing beyond Chen Xuantian by unknown realms. As long as Chen Xuantian’s body wasn’t shattered on the spot, he could do his utmost to preserve his life.
Moreover, Daoist Master Xuan, the supreme Alchemist, was by his side.
Saving Chen Xuantian was by no means difficult.
Waves of power surged with roaring sounds for a long time before Jiang Shi finally withdrew the Qi Force slowly, standing tall as he inquired, "Old Sect Leader, how do you feel?"
Chen Xuantian circulated his power, feeling that his internal injuries were no longer serious. His power flowed continuously, and his blood surged robustly like a furnace, astonishing him greatly.
He then looked at Jiang Shi once more, in disbelief.
Years had passed, and Jiang Shi had grown to such an extent!
"Jiang Shi, thank you."
Chen Xuantian slowly got up from the ground, speaking with complexity.
"Old Sect Leader, there’s no need for courtesy. When I was in dire straits, it was the Old Sect Leader who saved me. Repaying this kindness now is only right!"
Jiang Shi responded.
"Since your departure, the Great Qian has been in upheaval, with various factions openly and secretly contending, embroiled in endless turmoil. A group of powerful individuals arrived from across the strait, establishing the Heaven and Earth Alliance, forcibly unifying all the forces within the Great Qian, holding an unassailable position. The individual you just killed was an expert of this Heaven and Earth Alliance."
Chen Xuantian sighed softly.
The experts from that great world were unique, incomparable to other factions in both their learning and knowledge.
Though the Black Lotus Holy Sect had the Celestial Demon Sect backing it, after Jiang Shi slaughtered all the experts of the Celestial Demon Sect back then, there was no more contact, so in the following years, the Black Lotus Holy Sect was constantly restraining itself.
Unexpectedly, after years of restraint, the Heaven and Earth Alliance unified the four sides and still decided to take action against the Black Lotus Holy Sect.
"Old Sect Leader, rest assured, I already know everything."
Jiang Shi nodded, revealing a hint of coldness, "To be honest, I returned this time to seek out this Heaven and Earth Alliance!"
He needed to find the whereabouts of the old Gang Leader Yuan Fuhai and must mobilize all forces to search together.
There was nothing more suitable than this Heaven and Earth Alliance.
"By the way, Old Sect Leader, I also have some Blood Exchange Pills and Holy Spirit Pills here for you to take!"
Jiang Shi flipped his hand, pulling out seven or eight Jade Bottles to hand to Chen Xuantian.
Chen Xuantian was shocked, quickly looking at these Jade Bottles.
"Holy Spirit Pills?"
Jiang Shi could even obtain Holy Spirit Pills?
Not far away, Wind King and Rain King were equally astonished.
Over the years, what had Jiang Shi gone through?
"Jiang Shi, these Elixir Pills are too precious; I absolutely cannot accept them..."
"Rest assured, I have transcended the Holy Spirit, and these Elixir Pills are of no use to me."
Jiang Shi waved his hand and said lightly, "Old Sect Leader, feel free to accept them."
"You...you’ve surpassed the Holy Spirit?"
Chen Xuantian was once again shocked, incredulous.
In a daze, he felt that the person in front of him had an indescribable sense of distance...
Yes, Jiang Shi had grown so powerful that he felt unfamiliar with him.
Suddenly, Jiang Shi sensed something, abruptly turning his head to look afar, frowning, "It seems that there are quite a few remnants of the Heaven and Earth Alliance left, there are still people nearby. Wind King, Rain King, look after the Old Sect Leader, I’m stepping out for a bit!"
He stepped forward, leaving the area directly.
Daoist Master Xuan immediately followed behind, also disappearing from sight.
This left Chen Xuantian and the others in shock, feeling utterly astounding.
