Celestial Dragon Sword Venerable

Qianyang Prefecture, Yuan Gu Ancient City, the Yuan Race.

SWISH—

A ripple of Soul suddenly stirred, penetrating deep into the space between the eyebrows of Yuan Haoguang, who was in the middle of his Hard Cultivation.

Yuan Haoguang’s Soul trembled slightly. Immediately after, his cold, stern eyes opened, revealing an ancient aura of Dao rhythm.

’Ping’Er is dead?’

Terrifying wisps of Dao rhythm manifested in Yuan Haoguang’s gaze!

As that wisp of aura flowed out, not far from him, within the Forbidden Land, Yuan Haoning—who had been concentrating on her Enlightenment Dao—also experienced a fluctuation in her own aura. The air around her grew several degrees colder.

"What is it, Haoguang?"

Yuan Haoning’s fine brows furrowed slightly. She was rather displeased that Yuan Haoguang would forcefully send out a Soul ripple at such a critical moment, disturbing her Cultivation.

"Ping’Er is dead," Yuan Haoguang said, his voice low.

His tone was extremely deep, and his slightly hoarse voice contained a terrifying, murderous intent.

"Hm? Sister Ping’Er from the Yun Family? Dead? What happened?"

Yuan Haoning immediately stood up. Her aura grew even colder, and her words were laced with a hint of fury.

"I’m looking into it now. We’ll know the details in a moment."

Yuan Haoguang replied grimly. He then activated his Soul Mark and sent out a message.

His expression immediately became dark and uncertain. As he received the message, a stream of information was gradually presented to him through his Soul Mark, and the killing intent he exuded grew exceptionally fierce.

"Damn it!"

After a dozen or so breaths, Yuan Haoguang suddenly threw a punch into the Void.

BOOM—

The Void buckled violently. An Energy mushroom cloud seemed to erupt, sending out a massive wave of Energy.

The white gauze dress Yuan Haoning wore immediately whipped about, fluttering wildly.

And her aura grew even colder.

"In the central district of the Blood-Colored Wilderness Ancient City, a Cultivator calling himself the ’Evil Venerable’ and named ’Tianshu’ appeared and killed Ping’Er! And not only that, he..."

Yuan Haoguang had learned the truth from the Yun Family. Now, the Yun Family was at their wit’s end, forced to prepare thirty Divine Level Battle Souls to exchange for peace.

Yuan Haoguang explained the situation.

Yuan Haoning said coldly, "The Blood-Colored Wilderness region... how strong can anyone there truly be? This Tianshu is probably a True Profound Level genius with great Battle Power. However, Haoguang, you have already stepped into the Sword Void Nine Transformations Perfection Realm and are about to ascend to the Second Heaven World of the True Void Divine Realm. Killing him shouldn’t be a problem."

Yuan Haoguang said, "That’s what I thought, too. But Yun Shaorong said that Tianshu’s Battle Power is heaven-defying. He killed sixty-three Cultivators at the Nine Transformations of Sword Void Realm in a single strike..."

Yuan Haoning’s expression turned cold. "Are you afraid?"

Hearing this, Yuan Haoguang sneered. "Afraid? How could that be? I’m just thinking about how to make his death as painful as possible!"

Yuan Haoning asked, "Didn’t Sister Ping’Er leave behind her Three Souls and Seven Spirits?"

Yuan Haoguang shook his head, his expression turning even uglier.

"Take the Guardian Ancestral Dao Mark and go check it out. I have a feeling this matter isn’t so simple. For him to make such an outrageous demand, he must have something to back it up. Act according to the situation," Yuan Haoning instructed.

Yuan Haoguang nodded. "Don’t worry. To dare touch my, Yuan Haoguang’s, Dao companion... he must truly be tired of living!"

As Yuan Haoguang spoke, he brought out a Qiankun Ring and activated two layers of protective trump cards from within it.

"This is the Celestial Feather Battle Soul. Take it. I’m giving it to you. This Battle Soul is somewhat useful even in the Second Heaven World of the True Void Divine Realm."

A sliver of unease arose in Yuan Haoning’s heart.

After some thought, she decided to give him a special Battle Soul.

Yuan Haoguang wanted to refuse, but Yuan Haoning’s gaze was incomparably firm and cold, leaving him no room to do so.

After he accepted the Battle Soul, Yuan Haoning said, "My moment of enlightenment is at a critical juncture. Don’t disturb me unless it’s something major. Also, while you and Sister Ping’Er had a good relationship, since she’s dead, you should just cancel the engagement. The Yun Family can’t even deal with a single Loose Cultivator like Tianshu. They’re utterly useless."

Yuan Haoguang nodded and immediately agreed.

...

Ye Tianling executed his Jade Water Sky Connecting Swordsmanship, continuously slaying Yin Spirits.

He naturally absorbed the Energy from the Yin Spirits, condensing and transforming it into Dao Patterns.

Moreover, his conversion speed far surpassed that of Liu Xu’Er and Ye Tianyun.

At first, Liu Xu’Er and Ye Tianyun were quite astonished, but they gradually grew used to it.

Ye Tianling’s Dao Body, Tianshu, would also occasionally strike out to kill Yin Spirits, but the condensation of his own Dao Patterns showed no change, as if the effect was lost on him.

Ye Tianling wasn’t actually concerned about this.

What he needed to do was achieve a greater balance between his Dao Body and his main body, bringing their Battle Power to the same level.

The group gradually ventured deeper.

Soon, Ye Tianyun’s third Spirit began to reach Perfection.

Liu Xu’Er’s situation was much the same.

The Battle Power Dao Patterns accumulated from killing Yin Spirits seemed to have no limit, so the condensation of their Dao Patterns continued unabated.

Another half an hour passed. Ye Tianyun’s Seven Spirits had reached Perfection, and she began the transformation of her Three Souls.

The process was completely unimpeded. After an hour, Ye Tianyun finally stepped into the Nine Transformations of Sword Void Realm.

During this process, Ye Tianling had transformed all seven of his Spirits to the level of one hundred Dao Patterns each.

Yin Spirits were strange lifeforms. They all seemed the same on the surface, but in reality, their types were extremely varied and diverse.

Therefore, their effect on accumulating Battle Power Dao Patterns was astonishing.

Half a day later, Liu Xu’Er also stepped into the Early Stage of Sword Void Nine Transformations, reaching the same Realm as Ye Tianyun.

After Ye Tianling transformed his Seven Spirits, his Three Souls and Dao Body also achieved a certain degree of compatibility. Their Battle Power levels were now nearly equal.

Through this slaughter, his understanding of this World had naturally deepened as well.

After that, killing more Yin Spirits no longer had any effect on Liu Xu’Er and Ye Tianyun; they could not accumulate any more Battle Power Dao Patterns.

The two of them were somewhat disappointed, but considering that a transformation that would have previously taken nearly half a year was now completed in half a day, they were both very satisfied.

After this transformation, the injury on Liu Xu’Er’s butt was finally able to heal completely.

The Yin Spirits in the cave had been nearly slaughtered to the last one. Overall, the ordeal had been dangerous but they had come through unscathed.

As they were leaving, Ye Tianling’s Dao Body was halfway out when he suddenly stopped.

Then, Ye Tianling’s Dao Body directly drew the ’Baiyu Demon God Radiant Bow,’ aimed it forward, and said, "Come out!"

Ye Tianyun and Liu Xu’Er were still a little confused.

But the next moment, after a ripple passed through the Void, Yuan Haoguang’s figure appeared, along with three middle-aged Male Cultivators from the Yun Family and Yun Shaorong.

"You’re Tianshu? Was it you who killed my Dao companion, Yun Shaoping?"

Yuan Haoguang’s eyes, like those of a viper, glinted with a vicious light as he spoke, enunciating every word.
