Ancient Devouring Technique

Chapter 983: Killed at a Glance
A misty white sword energy came from behind, with an astonishing momentum.

Ye Xuan's face darkened, but he reacted quickly enough. Almost at the same time when the white jade sword light appeared behind him, his body suddenly turned around. At the same time, he shook his sleeves and grabbed with his right hand. With a click, a crystal small sword of law was condensed in his right hand. After his holy power suddenly poured into it, it flew out of his hand. The sword of law turned into a white golden flame of light about five or six feet in size and rushed forward.

Ye Xuan himself suddenly turned into a ray of crystal light and shot away into the distance.

In the void behind him, the white jade sword light and the sword light of the law of time and space intertwined and entangled with each other, making crisp "collision" sounds from time to time.

Seeing this, Lan Meng, who was chasing from behind, frowned slightly, pointed his jade finger at the white jade flying sword, and a stream of refined holy power was injected into it again.

All of a sudden, the power of the White Jade Flying Sword increased greatly, and the sword light shone into the sky. The sword light of the law released by Ye Xuan let out a wail, and was torn apart by the White Jade Flying Sword. It then let out a wail and turned into a crystal small sword again and flew towards Ye Xuan.

When Ye Xuan's mind and spirit were connected, he felt a chill in his heart. With a shake of his sleeves, he put the Sword of Law back into his body.

After just this simple fight, Ye Xuan suddenly discovered that Lan Meng was much more powerful than he had imagined.

This woman just swung the sword casually, probably using less than 20% of her strength, but she easily suppressed me!
But he has not yet truly recovered to the level of Saint King!

At this moment, the two women at the back looked at each other with surprise on their faces. It was incredible that they could withstand the attack of the White Jade Demon Sword with their low cultivation level in the Saint Realm.

While the two women were still chasing closely on the flying boat, Lan Meng frowned slightly and slashed with the sword again. This time she exerted 30% of her strength, which was 10% more than last time!
Suddenly, a white sword light swept towards Ye Xuan at a speed several times faster than before, and appeared behind Ye Xuan after a few breaths.

Ye Xuan felt his body sink slightly, and an unavoidable strong sense of oppression came from behind him. His mind raced, he gritted his teeth, turned around, and shook his arms violently.

Suddenly, black flames on his body rose into the sky. With a long roar, he met the whistling white sword light. He punched out with both fists wildly, and immediately two black fist shadows blasted out.

Two loud bangs, "boom" and "boom"!

After the fist shadow hit the white sword light, the two sides were temporarily deadlocked.

Seeing this, Ye Xuan once again desperately urged the holy power in his body. The blood in his body surged, and he exerted great strength with both hands, and with a push, he managed to change the direction of the sharp white light slightly, and flew towards the other side of the void.

At the same time, Ye Xuan shook his arms and a huge force came. The scales on his hands burst open and his fists became bloody.

What made his face change even more was that at the same time, his blood surged in his body and he felt a strange pain in his eight extraordinary meridians. It was obvious that if he forced himself to take on the second sword light, he would probably suffer some minor injuries.

When Ye Xuan thought of this, he immediately moved his ten fingers quickly like phantoms without hesitation, forming a series of strange hand seals, and an astonishing fluctuation of the law of time emanated from his body.

He opened his mouth and several balls of blood spurted out, then dispersed in the wind and turned into a cloud of blood mist that enveloped his entire body.

His exposed face and neck became extremely red, and in the blink of an eye his entire body turned as red as blood, which was extremely horrifying!
In the flying blood mist, Ye Xuan's figure gradually became blurred.

"Oh no! He must be trying to use some secret technique to escape! Stop him quickly!" When the Fairy Lan Yue in the back saw Ye Xuan's move, she screamed in panic and a long spike flew away rapidly.

Fairy Lan Meng's face darkened. She knew that this bad boy was going to escape. The holy power of the demon king in her body surged again instantly, and she slashed out with an even more powerful sword light!
But the two attacks were about to fall on Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan's body seemed to be drying up quickly like a mummy. His figure swayed in the blood mist, and he suddenly turned into a blood-red line and shot out, suddenly disappearing into the air.

The long sword and the white jade sword light both fell into vain.

The next moment, there seemed to be two flashes of blood in the sky, and Ye Xuan disappeared without a trace.

The two women were surprised again when they saw this. They didn’t know what kind of secret technique Ye Xuan used to make his speed increase so horribly!
Their faces were gloomy and they hurriedly used their secret techniques to search for Ye Xuan's location. However, just as they locked onto a target thousands miles away, Ye Xuan once again used his blood escape and the law of time to escape from the two women's locking range.

"Hmph, I don't believe that I can't catch you!" Lin Lanyue was so angry that her pretty face turned pale. She also moved her two fingers and performed a secret searching technique that she hadn't used for a long time!
It's called "Wood Fairy Soul Chasing Technique!"

……

Ye Xuan escaped for thousands of miles, and a large pool of black blood spurted out. His body shook, and he could no longer use the blood escape and the law of time. His skinny body recovered and returned to its original state.

He felt a splitting headache and gritted his bloody teeth, insisting on flying.

Blood Escape is a secret technique that overdrafts blood and essence. All warriors who have cultivated to Ye Xuan's level can do it. Although Ye Xuan has abundant blood in his body, he cannot use it for a long time.

It’s not that he doesn’t have enough blood and essence, but because his soul will easily collapse if he uses this technique for a long time!

At this moment, Ye Xuan's eyes focused and he looked up suddenly, and saw four figures coming rapidly from the distant horizon.

He frowned, and while pondering, his body descended. He no longer flew, but sank into a big tree below, performed the soul skill of concealment, and disappeared.

Ye Xuan didn't dare to enter the small world, as he might be caught in a trap.

At this moment, he was sitting cross-legged among the leaves, waiting for the four people to leave while trying to recover his energy as much as possible. However, the four people paused and stayed nearby, looking around and observing something. One of them was a young man in a green robe with a stern face. As soon as he landed on the tree, his cultivation spread out and turned into bursts of martial arts holy power. He took out a piece of crystal white square jade in his hand.

The waves of blood energy that had been emitted from Ye Xuan's body before were now being rapidly absorbed by the jade. Soon, most of the jade turned blood-colored.

Ye Xuan's eyes moved when he saw this scene.

"Such a strong blood energy, but I don't know where the source is." There were three men and one woman among the four people. The one who spoke was the woman. She was wearing a pink skirt and looked pretty, young and quiet.

The two people beside her glanced at the surrounding jungle and frowned.

"It's better to collect this blood and energy and leave quickly. This blood and energy comes so quickly, it's quite strange, so it's better to be careful." A person next to him spoke hesitantly.

“What are you afraid of? We have Senior Brother Zhuang here. Even if there is any danger, with his status as a core disciple and his cultivation in the great perfection of the holy realm, we will definitely be able to overcome the danger. We may even have a chance.” The woman chuckled and spoke, with a charming look in her eyes as she looked at the young man in green robe.

Among these four people, except Senior Brother Zhuang who was holding the square jade to absorb blood and energy and was in the Great Perfection of the Saint Realm, the rest were in the fifth or sixth level of the Saint Realm. The four were led by the young man Zhuang.

After a while, all the blood energy that Ye Xuan had emitted before had been absorbed by the jade. The jade gradually turned completely blood red, and it seemed that it could no longer absorb any more blood. Seeing this, Ye Xuan looked thoughtful.

"Who is there?" At this moment, the young man named Zhuang suddenly stared coldly at where Ye Xuan was.

Ye Xuan sighed lightly, he didn't expect that this young man was actually a perception-type martial artist.

He moved his body and flew out directly from the leaves, flying away into the distance with a flash of light.

His appearance immediately surprised the other three, especially the fact that Ye Xuan still had a faint trace of pure blood remaining on his body. This scene immediately made the young man surnamed Zhuang narrow his eyes.

"My friend, please leave for a moment." Senior Brother Zhuang said decisively, and pointed his left hand towards Ye Xuan. Immediately, a stream of blood appeared, and as it rolled, it turned into a blood skull in the air, which rushed towards Ye Xuan with its mouth wide open and a hideous grin.

The other two men and one woman, when they saw this scene, their eyes flashed with brilliance, and they attacked together. Immediately, a black python martial spirit, a flying sword martial spirit, and a diamond steel ring sacred weapon all attacked Ye Xuan.

The woman's golden ring holy weapon emitted a bright golden light and expanded as it flew out, heading straight for Ye Xuan as if to trap him.

Ye Xuan, who had already flown away, suddenly turned back. His eyes were still bloodshot due to the blood escape secret technique, but his face became gloomy as water, and a strong murderous intent emerged.

He was originally in a very bad mood because he was being hunted by Lan Meng and Lin Lanyue. At this moment, these people suddenly attacked him.

"You are looking for death!" Ye Xuan said coldly, a golden flame flashed slightly in his eyes, as if boiling.

At this moment, a magical scene appeared. The four people, including Senior Brother Zhuang, three men and one woman, were all shocked. The expressions and movements of several people all remained at this moment.

All of their attacks and martial spirits collapsed at this moment, decaying and dissipating!

Ye Xuan grabbed with his right hand, and the storage treasures of the four people fell off their bodies and were held in his hand. Then he flew away with a flash of light and disappeared into the sky.

When he looked at the four people again, they had lost their spirits and died mysteriously without a sound. After a light breeze blew, the bodies of the four people fell to the mountains below!

But half an incense stick later, a white jade flying boat broke through the air and came. After it stopped, two fairies, Lan Meng and Lan Yue, appeared. Lan Meng frowned slightly and waved her jade hand downwards. A man's body flew up again from the mountains below. It was the body of Senior Brother Zhuang!

"A peak of the ninth level of the Holy Realm was unexpectedly killed in such a strange way!"

Lan Meng looked at the body of the young man named Zhuang, feeling surprised but with a hint of irony on her face.

Horrifying others will eventually harm oneself. If he had not harbored any evil intentions towards Ye Xuan, he would not have died.

"Wow!" Fairy Lan Yue cremated the body directly, her face looking very unhappy.

She had some impression of this young man named Zhuang. He had achieved a very good ranking in last year's provincial genius competition. If she remembered correctly, he should have been ranked ninth.

But such a talented disciple was actually killed by that junior, which made her feel a little sad.
