I Grind to Martial Saint

Chapter 241 229: City Lord's Mansion

BANG!

The old crone, too, was sent flying by Han Yuan's kick.

At that moment, even with his head half split open, Shi Yuekong let out a roar and swung both hands at Han Yuan's neck.

"You're courting death!"

Han Yuan spun around again and threw a series of heavy punches, relentlessly smashing them into Shi Yuekong's chest.

BANG! BANG! BANG!~~~

The explosive force of his fists was terrifying, like a shower of meteors crashing down. Shi Yuekong's chest caved in and burst apart under the assault.

Shi Yuekong couldn't resist at all. He was continuously knocked back by the heavy blows, able only to let out meaningless roars.

Seizing the opportunity, Han Yuan grabbed the Dragon Sparrow Cloud-Splitting Saber with both hands, pulled it free, and in the same motion, swung it horizontally!

CRACK!

Shi Yuekong's head immediately flew into the air.

Han Yuan let out a low roar as immense power erupted from his arms once more. The Dragon Sparrow Cloud-Splitting Saber transformed into a bolt of lightning and fell viciously!

SQUELCH!

This time, Han Yuan finally managed to slice Shi Yuekong's head in half with a single blow.

BOOM~~

At the same time, a powerful, concussive force struck him from behind.

Han Yuan grunted, a vast numbness spreading across his back.

It was the old crone.

She had viciously slammed a claw into Han Yuan's back.

Even with his Vajra Indestructible Body, Han Yuan felt his qi and blood roil, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

He roared furiously, his blade flashing as he unleashed a Rotating Blade Light.

The old crone's figure flickered, and she dodged instantly.

But Han Yuan had anticipated her evasion. Stomping his feet, he charged violently forward and to the left like a rampaging beast.

BANG!

The old crone was struck hard and sent flying.

In that instant, a strange, dark red color appeared on Han Yuan's arms. His muscles swelled rapidly, and the Dragon Sparrow Cloud-Splitting Saber became a streak of chilling light, falling like a thunderbolt!

Based on his previous experience, he knew that after people turned into Evil Spirits, their bodies would become Mutated and as tough as dead wood. He had to use his most savage power to shatter them!

BOOM!

With a strange noise, the old crone was sliced clean in two by the Sword Evil of the Dragon Sparrow Cloud-Splitting Saber.

After dealing with the two Evil Spirits, Han Yuan looked at the others.

Cao Ru, Hong Kui, and Sun Jianbai, along with the Dong Brothers and Ding Zihu, had also successively taken care of the remaining Evil Spirits.

The group gathered together once more.

"It looks like this Ancient Ruins City is dead set on devouring us!"

Ding Zihu said, his heart still pounding with fear.

"When we first entered that Cave Mansion, there were thirteen of us.

Now, only seven are left."

"There's nothing to be done... Staying outside the Spiritual Land means death, too..."

"Here, at least we can fight back."

"Outside the Spiritual Land, we could only wait quietly for death."

Hong Kui said helplessly.

Before entering this Cave Mansion, they knew it would be perilously unpredictable.

But they had no other choice.

HISSSSSS~~~

From within the black fog, that strange hissing roar sounded again.

Hearing the sound, Han Yuan looked into the distance. "That hissing roar is coming from up ahead."

"Perhaps if we take care of the source of that sound, all our problems will be solved."

After hearing this, Ding Zihu asked in surprise, "Are you suspecting that hissing roar is coming from *that* one?"

Han Yuan said softly, "I'm not sure... We'll only know once we go."

"If any of you don't want to go, you can stay here. I won't force you."

Ding Zihu was the first to declare his stance. "Then I'm definitely going with you."

The Dong Brothers didn't hesitate for long before choosing to brave the danger with Han Yuan.

"I also want to see who's causing all this trouble in the Ancient Ruins City. Count me in!"

Given Hong Kui's personality, he was naturally more than willing to take the risk with Han Yuan.

Cao Ru was well aware of Han Yuan's capabilities and naturally chose to go with him.

As for Old Sun, he was even more terrified of being left alone in such a dangerous ruined city.

The seven of them headed toward the hissing roar.

The hissing roar was intermittent and very strange.

But the deeper they went, the more Han Yuan began to notice certain things.

He saw twisted, withered black trees growing out of the ruins of some houses.

The sight of these withered black trees made Ding Zihu's scalp tingle with fear.

He had almost been dragged deep underground by these damned things before and had no desire for a repeat experience, so he hurriedly moved closer to Han Yuan.

"Be careful of these black trees..."

Han Yuan warned.

Hearing this, the group became even more vigilant.

However, the withered black trees showed no signs of movement, simply standing there silently.

The deeper they went, the more numerous the withered black trees became.

The scene was somewhat eerie and bizarre.

The withered black trees, looming in and out of the shadows, were as terrifying as dark phantoms.

Anyone with a weak heart would likely be scared to death.

Even Han Yuan began to feel a little tense.

He sensed a strange and sinister presence.

It was this presence that filled him with a sense of dread.

After walking forward for a while longer, they finally saw a massive, dark building.

The building was dark and obscure, its walls cracked, exuding an air of decay and ruin.

Moreover, there were many withered black trees within the building as well.

These dead trees had no branches or leaves; their tangled limbs clawed at the air, exceptionally twisted and grim.

"There's a plaque over there!"

Sun Jianbai's old eyes were not the least bit dim; he spotted the cracked plaque at a glance.

A small piece of the plaque had broken off, leaving only two ancient characters.

Ding Zihu leaned in for a closer look and exclaimed in shock, "These two words are from the Chaotic Ancient Era. They should mean 'City Lord'."

Hearing this, a sharp glint flashed in Han Yuan's eyes. 'It seems this is the source of the turmoil in this ancient city.'

"Let's go in and take a look."

With that, he walked directly toward the dark building.
