Martial Arts: After ten years of sword-drawing, the Sword God must bow his head when he sees me

Chapter 185 Mad Blood
Shen Ping'an has always been someone who treats others with the utmost respect.

Faced with Sun Qingyan's gentle words, Shen Ping'an's expression softened slightly: "Senior, you flatter me."

After a moment's hesitation, Sun Qingyan said, "Just now Yue'er said that Young Master Shen needs to be examined first before a treatment plan can be determined. If it's convenient for Young Master Shen, I'll take you to the back mountain now?"

"it is good!"

Shen Ping'an nodded slightly and slowly stood up.

Seeing this, Sun Qingyan quickly turned around and led the way.

A moment later, led by Sun Qingyan and the others, Shen Ping'an and his group approached the back mountain of Yihua Palace.

However, when they were still a hundred feet away from the back mountain of Yihua Palace, Shen Ping'an could already faintly hear a murderous intent.

After walking another hundred paces, Zhang Sanniang also sensed something and couldn't help but murmur, "Such a strong killing intent."

Shen Ping'an said calmly, "The Blood Bodhi is a Bodhi fruit mixed with the heart blood of a ferocious beast. Therefore, the Blood Bodhi also contains fire poison. Once the fire poison enters the human body, it will quickly invade the body's meridians and even consciousness."

"Under the influence of this fire poison, although it will greatly increase the strength of martial artists, it will also erode their minds and cause them to become demonic, devouring people indiscriminately and showing no regard for their own family."

"That senior was in the back mountain, and his killing intent had nowhere to go. The killing intent that had been accumulating for decades was naturally very strong."

Although Shen Ping'an's voice wasn't loud, Kong Qingyan and the others heard it clearly.

Upon hearing that the Blood Bodhi contained fire poison, everyone was shocked.

Kong Qingyan asked, "So, as long as the fire poison is removed, Grandmaster's condition will be alleviated?"

Shen Ping'an nodded and said, "That's right."

At this moment, Kong Qingyan asked, "After Master's accident, we also mixed a lot of detoxifying medicine into Master's food, but why did it have no effect at all?"

Shen Ping'an responded, "The fire poison within the Blood Bodhi, once it enters the human body, will not simply adhere to the body, but will be integrated into the blood, and may even become a special kind of mad blood."

"If there are descendants, they will also be affected by this mad blood. If we do not know the way to cure it, how can the medicine penetrate into the blood?"

Hearing Shen Ping'an's explanation, Kong Qingyan suddenly realized, "I see!"

Soon, led by Kong Qingyan, the group arrived at the valley behind the mountain.

At the entrance to the valley, there is a stone tablet with the character "禁" (forbidden) written on it in cinnabar.

However, this valley behind the mountain was designated as a forbidden area of ​​the Yihua Palace.

At the entrance to this valley, there is a Supreme Elder guarding it.

After learning the purpose of Kong Qingyan and the others' visit, the guarding elder couldn't help but glance at Shen Ping'an, his eyes showing a hint of scrutiny.

Without further explanation to the elder, the group entered the valley one after another.

The valley is not particularly large, with a diameter of only about thirty feet.

What's unusual is that there's a hot spring in this valley.

Layers of hot air surged on the water's surface, making the humidity inside the valley even higher than outside.

After his gaze swept over the hot spring, Shen Ping'an looked up and looked at a stone wall in the valley.

On the stone wall, an old woman was seen with her limbs tightly chained, her gray hair clearly disheveled.

He was leaning against the wall, slumped on the ground with his head down, motionless.

A murderous intent, like a flowing river, emanated from the old woman.

The killing intent permeated the entire valley so intensely that Qu Feiyan and Shen Qingshan felt their breathing become somewhat suffocated.

After her gaze lingered on the old woman for a few moments, Kong Qingyan asked, "Has Master been lucid today?"

In response to Kong Qingyan's question, the Supreme Elder who had been guarding the valley shook his head and said, "Ever since the old Palace Master was also poisoned, he has never been lucid and has been in a state of madness. He has been quiet like this since he ate the food mixed with the antidote last night."

Knowing that the old palace master had been quiet for so long, Kong Qingyan showed a look of surprise.

An elder standing nearby couldn't help but speak up: "The old palace master hasn't been this quiet in a long time. Could it be that by accident, his condition has been alleviated?"

Yaoyue glanced at the old woman leaning against the wall with her head bowed, then looked at Shen Ping'an with a clear questioning look in her eyes. Shen Ping'an shook his head and said, "The fire poison within the Blood Bodhi is not so simple. Its malevolent intent will naturally be revealed once someone gets close."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Ping'an put one hand behind his back and walked towards the old woman.

Noticing Shen Ping'an's actions, the expressions of several Supreme Elders who were unaware of Shen Ping'an's strength changed slightly.

But Kong Qingyan didn't speak, so the others could only watch patiently and quietly.

Soon, when Shen Ping'an was about five zhang away from the old woman, the old woman who had been keeping her head down suddenly raised her head.

A pair of wrinkled faces faced Shen Ping'an, and bloodshot eyes that seemed to hold blood that would slide down the corners of the eyes at any second.

A surge of murderous intent erupted from his body in an instant.

The killing intent emanating from his body alone was enough to stir up gusts of cold wind in the valley.

Noticing the old woman's condition, Sun Qingyan and several other Supreme Elders of Yihua Palace immediately mobilized their internal energy.

However, Shen Ping'an remained calm in the face of the former's condition.

They never even stopped moving forward.

"die!"

As Shen Ping'an continued to approach, the old woman practically spat out this word through gritted teeth.

Then, as the powerful true energy within his body surged, his chained hands slightly rotated. With each turn of his withered palms, crimson true energy, carrying repulsive or suction forces, surged towards Shen Ping'an from all directions like a tide.

It seemed as if they intended to use their true energy and special force to directly crush Shen Ping'an.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz"

However, just as these true energies and powerful forces were about to strike Shen Ping'an, the sounds of swords rang out from Shen Ping'an.

As the sword intent and the sound of the sword echoed, the crimson true energy and special force that were rapidly surging towards Shen Ping'an were instantly shredded.

At the same time, a soaring sword intent suddenly burst forth from Shen Ping'an's body.

The sharp sword intent, carrying a sword momentum that seemed to want to shatter the heavens and earth, mixed with the mountainous momentum gathered by the Earth Sword Realm, and transformed into a chilling aura that fiercely pressed down on the old woman.

Faced with Shen Ping'an's imposing aura, the old woman, whose mind was completely consumed by the killing intent, didn't even try to block it and was directly hit hard by this aura.

"boom!"

With a loud crash, the old woman, who had just been leaning forward, was thrown against the mountainside as if hit by a carriage. Her body embedded itself in the rock, causing a shower of rocks to fall.

Forced to suppress the terrain created by Shen Ping'an's combination of Heaven-Slaying Sword Intent and Earth Sword Realm Sword Dao, the old palace master of the Displacement Flower Palace kept letting out low roars, and the bloodlust in his eyes seemed to intensify.

If the other party is conscious, with his cultivation at the ninth level of the Celestial Realm, it wouldn't be difficult for him to break through the pressure that Shen Ping'an is currently exerting.

However, the old palace master of the Huahua Palace had fallen into demonic possession and could only act based on the killing intent within him.

If you don't use the "Transplanting Flowers and Jade" technique and rely solely on your own true energy and skill, how can you break free from Shen Ping'an's unyielding sword aura and the oppressive force emanating from his sword intent?

Even with constant roars, Shen Ping'an remained unmoved.

Seeing the old woman who was almost embedded in the mountain wall, the elders of Yihua Palace, who were seeing Shen Ping'an make a move for the first time, widened their eyes in surprise.

"He... he actually suppressed the old palace master, whose cultivation had reached the ninth level of the Celestial Realm?"

As the supreme elders of the Yihua Palace, they naturally knew just how terrifying the old palace master's strength was, as he was now corrupted by the mad blood and had fallen into a demonic state.

If it were any one of them facing the old palace master at such close range, they would be killed without any chance of resistance.

In contrast, Shen Ping'an's body only displayed the true qi fluctuations of the first level of the Heavenly Gang Realm, yet he was able to instantly and overwhelmingly suppress the old palace master.

How could this scene not surprise them?

The elder who had his brow pressed against Shen Ping'an's by sword energy yesterday felt a jolt of fear as he looked at the terrifying strength Shen Ping'an was displaying. A look of lingering fear involuntarily appeared on his face.
