Chapter 1048 All Annihilated
Hu Yunni floated closer and examined the headless corpse: "What treasures did this old guy have on him?"

With a flick of the tip of the Flying Scale Sword.

Hu Yunni looked at the sword tip and saw that it was empty. She turned her head and looked at Leng Tieya with a puzzled expression.

Leng Tieya brandished his Flying Scale Sword.

"Ding……"

A clear, ringing sound rang out from the tip of the sword.

Hu Yunni swung her sword to stab, but missed. Undeterred, she continued to stab.

Yet every sword strike ended in emptiness.

The more she missed, the more defiant she became, continuing to thrust, only to miss again and again.

Leng Tieya smiled and shook his head, flicking the tip of his sword.

"Ding……"

The clear chirping sound rang out again.

She looked in surprise at the empty space where Leng Tieya's sword tip was, and then thrust it forward.

But it still missed.

"Strange!" She pressed the tip of her sword against the spine of the Flying Scale Sword, refusing to believe it.

The sword tip slashed forward along the Flying Scale Sword, but still missed its target.

There was nothing there in front of the sword tip, nothing unusual.

She waved her hand, and a stone flew over; then she flicked her sleeve.

"Bang!" The stone shot towards the tip of the sword, turning into a cloud of stone dust that fell down in a flurry.

However, no shape of the object is revealed.

"Strange!" Hu Yunni exclaimed in surprise, "There's really nothing there?"

Leng Tieya smiled and thrust his Flying Scale Sword forward, piercing into the stone powder.

"Ding……"

The stone dust suddenly swirls away, pushed back by an invisible force, forming a ring shape.

As the Flying Scale Sword retreated, the stone dust coalesced again, and the golden ring disappeared once more.

Hu Yunni exclaimed, "Wonderful!"

Leng Tieya nodded with a smile: "It is indeed a rare item."

"Keep it safe," Hu Yunni said. "It's quite a haul."

Leng Tieya didn't stand on ceremony, reached out and then stuffed the item into his sleeve.

Hu Yunni couldn't see or sense it, but she couldn't hide it from the extrasensory perception of the cave.

Hu Yunni looked at Leng Tieya with curiosity.

Leng Tieya laughed and said, "Perhaps it's because I killed that guy earlier that I have a unique feeling."

"That's possible." Hu Yunni nodded.

Sun Changyue could sense the aura of the Supreme Heavenly Demon's remains, and he could also sense this golden ring.

One time could be a coincidence or chance, but two times cannot be explained in this way.

He may possess extraordinary skills or special talents, and his perception is exceptional.

It is like one's own talent, a gift from heaven, beyond words.

Hu Yunni and he returned to the mountaintop to look down at the valley below again.

"The demons here pose little threat; it's quite boring."

“It’s possible that all the experts have gathered at that one jar,” Leng Tieya said.

The most likely reason is the Golden Ghost Flower.

Those experts gathered together to protect the existence of the Golden Ghost Flower.

In the end, I managed to snag a bargain.

The thought of the Golden Ghost Flower filled him with joy, and he marveled at his good fortune.

Who would have thought that the branch altar actually concealed the Golden Ghost Flower?

"Will you come back with us, sir?"

"...I'd like to take care of some personal matters first before I go to visit."

"Alright." Hu Yunni nodded.

Miao Qingjie skimmed over the treetops, climbed up the mountainside, and came to the two of them.

His face was stained with blood, and his clothes were torn in several places, making him look quite ragged.

Hu Yunni frowned slightly: "Senior Brother Miao, are you alright?"

Miao Qingjie waved his hand dismissively: "It's nothing, just a minor injury."

He took the small box out of his pocket, opened it, and handed it to Leng Tieya with a smile.

Leng Tieya chuckled, reached out and picked up a fragment of the broken sword, then closed his eyes.

Hu Yunni glared at her, annoyed.

Ignoring her angry glare, Miao Qingjie stared intently at Leng Tieya's face.

Leng Tieya opened his eyes and shook his head in disappointment.

Miao Qingjie relaxed and sighed, "So it really is only possible to find one, and that one is only in Wanjiang City."

Hu Yunni couldn't help but scold, "Senior Brother Miao, you...you're too greedy!"

Miao Qingjie put the small box away and said with a smile, "What if we can find it? Back then, none of my fellow disciples, or even the sect leader, thought much of going to Wanjiang City."

"...I hope you find it again." Hu Yunni was speechless. "Go on and get busy."

Miao Qingjie agreed, then said earnestly, "Mr. Sun, we'll be returning to the cliff now. Please travel with us." "I..."

"Let's check if there's anything along the way."

“…Alright.” Leng Tieya thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Hu Yunni glanced at him sideways: "Mr. Sun, don't you still have some trivial matters to deal with?"

Leng Tieya laughed and said, "Those trivial matters are not worth mentioning compared to the remains of the Supreme Heavenly Demon."

Hu Yunni glanced sideways and snorted, "Then let's go together."

With such a top-notch swordsman by my side, the journey will be much safer.

……

At the summit of a majestic peak, Leng Tieya stood side by side with Hu Yunni and Miao Qingjie.

Lush greenery greets the eye, and a gentle breeze caresses the face.

Bright sunshine streamed down.

Leng Tieya and Hu Yunni had the best lightness skills, so they slowed down to take care of Miao Qingjie.

Later, Leng Tieya sensed that the aura of the broken sword fragments had been greatly depleted, his face turned pale, and his speed slowed down.

So they went to the back, while the other experts from Zhaixing Cliff went ahead.

Hu Yunni said, "If it still doesn't work out, then let's just forget about it."

Miao Qingjie nodded hurriedly, looking apologetically at Leng Tieya.

Leng Tieya said, "It's a rare opportunity to make this trip, just bear with it and it will pass."

His face was pale, weak, and haggard, as if he could be blown away by a gust of wind.

Hu Yunni said, "Your weakness will inevitably affect the outcome."

Leng Tieya chuckled.

Hu Yunni turned to Miao Qingjie and said, "Senior Brother Miao, could you make a trip to the sect to exchange for Star Soul Pills?"

“This…” Miao Qingjie hesitated.

The Star Soul Pill is precious, but it is insignificant compared to the remains of the Supreme Heavenly Demon.

With these remains, I wonder how many bottles I could exchange them for.

A round trip to Zhaixing Cliff would take at least two days, which is too long.

He thought for a moment and said, "How about I have one of my junior brothers send a bottle over?"

"Alright." Hu Yunni nodded.

Leng Tieya was helpless.

Hu Yunni suddenly took out a shiny waist token from her sleeve, which was like a small mirror and as bright as silver. She held it up to the sky.

A gray shadow suddenly landed on her shoulder; it was a small bird, no bigger than her palm.

Shaped like a swallow, with eyes like jewels, black and bright, and extremely lively.

She extended her left hand.

The little bird hopped and landed in her left palm, then took the bamboo tube off her leg.

She pulled the paper strip out of the bamboo tube, unfolded it, and smiled.

She looked up at Leng Tieya: "All ten branch altars have been destroyed. The Yougu Sect should be completely wiped out this time."

Leng Tieya clapped his hands in admiration: "I admire you!"

He let out a long sigh of relief.

Having already fulfilled the mission of the Great Heavenly Demon Palace, he had destroyed the Nether Bone Sect here without the Great Heavenly Demon Palace needing to send out any experts.

This can be described as a great achievement.

“This time it wasn’t just our Star-Picking Cliff; four sects joined forces,” Hu Yunni said. “Thankfully, everything went smoothly without any mishaps.”

"Did you lose any men?"

"We didn't suffer any damage here, but the other jars did."

"pity."

"If it weren't for Mr. Sun, we would have suffered heavy losses this time as well."

"Hey, it's nothing to mention." Leng Tieya waved his hand.

Hu Yunni smiled sweetly, her eyes crinkling, "After returning to the sect, the sect will definitely express their gratitude."

Leng Tieya smiled and waved his hand.

Hu Yunni thought for a moment, then took out paper and pen from her sleeve, wrote it in one stroke, sealed it in a bamboo tube, took out a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve, poured out a small red pill, and placed it in her palm.

The little bird, which had been curiously staring at the cold iron cliff, immediately turned its gaze away, pecked at the red pill, and turned into a gray shadow that shot into the sky.

She put away the porcelain bottle and paper: "I had Senior Brother Lu send over the Star Soul Pill."

Miao Qingjie was overjoyed.

They found a rock, sat cross-legged, and began to regulate their breathing.

Hu Yunni said, "Mr. Sun, I have a little method for restoring the spirit. It is not the secret method of our sect, but a method passed down from ancient times."

Leng Tieya opened his eyes and smiled, "Perfect."

Hu Yunni said, "I will pass it on to you, sir. Please listen..."

Her voice abruptly stopped, and a mantra was transmitted into Leng Tieya's ears via telepathy.

Leng Tieya closed his eyes and pondered deeply.

The first thing to do is to concentrate and sense whether there are any traps or dangers in this technique.
