At this moment.
Both of them had a change of expression at the same time.
Gu Zhijing’s face changed drastically. He couldn’t believe what he had just seen, but he had managed to lead the Gu family in Nanhuai City from an ordinary Qi Cultivation family to a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivation family, showing his determination and ruthlessness.
He exploded one of his fingers and blood gushed into the black tower. From the black tower, a bloody hand appeared and with a speed Han Yi couldn’t react to, it swiped horizontally, directly swatting away the Green Reed Sword at extreme speed.
However, swatting away this top-quality Sword Tool was the limit of what the bloody hand could do, and it swiftly withdrew back into the black tower, showing no signs of life.
As for Han Yi, his change of expression was a bit of disbelief.
Because, in his eyes, this Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator could only be described with one word: “weak”.
So weak, it didn’t seem like the Foundation Establishment stage.
He suddenly realized that when the old Foundation Establishment Cultivator appeared just now, the air of decay hidden within his imposing aura was similar to what he had seen in Daofu City. It was from the Daqian Sky Bureau’s old Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator, and while he wasn’t as close to his end as that elder, they weren’t far apart.
This was a sign of walking the downhill path of Immortal cultivation and the end of one’s lifespan approaching.
Yin-Yang Soul Nourishing Pill, the Gu family, evil elixirs, old Cultivators, Foundation Establishment stage, and the approaching end…
These keywords seemed to form a line and presented themselves before Han Yi, but he still felt that something was missing, some crucial reason. Why was it a disciple of the Xuandan Sect?
With his thoughts floating, Han Yi merged his fingers and the swatted away Green Reed Sword fell back onto his back.
Then, his body shook and he exploded backward.
Peak Mastery, Light Body Technique.
After the previous attempt, the opponent could do nothing to Han Yi, but he wasn’t sure he could kill the opponent either. Besides, he didn’t know if the opponent had some trump cards. So he chose to retreat since Gu Zhijing was as good as dead anyway.
Gu Zhijing, who had ground his teeth and shattered his finger, had his eyes filled with murderous intent and wasn’t letting it go. He was about to launch another attack.
But at this moment.
A cold snort sounded from high above.
“Enough.”
Then, a figure appeared in an instant between the two of them.
Both Han Yi, who was making his way away, and Gu Zhijing, who was about to attack, stopped in their tracks.
Subsequently, their reactions were completely opposite.
Gu Zhijing screamed in terror and turned to flee, while Han Yi heaved a sigh of relief.
The person who had arrived was Fu Canghai, whom Han Yi had met before.
Fu Canghai watched as Gu Zhijing fled for his life, just shaking his head slightly. Then, with a wave of his hand, a burst of flames ignited in mid-air, transforming into a fire dragon in the blink of an eye. The fire dragon leaped forward, covering several hundred meters in an instant, swallowing the horrified Gu Zhijing whole.
A strange, sharp cry rose from the flames, not coming from Gu Zhijing, but from the baffling black tower in his hand.
In less than three breaths, Gu Zhijing, the mysterious black tower in his hand, and even the storage bag on his body had all turned to ashes, leaving no trace.
The fire dragon returned, glanced at Han Yi, who felt as if the blazing eyes of the fire dragon held some sort of intelligence, and then it burrowed into Fu Canghai’s sleeve.
From the moment Fu Canghai snorted coldly to when he put away the fire dragon, it was no more than three breaths.
Three breaths ago, Gu Zhijing wanted to chase and kill Han Yi, who believed he couldn’t win but could escape without any problem.
Three breaths later, Gu Zhijing was dead without a trace.
Life changes, completely unpredictable.
“Greetings, Master Fu.”
During the previous encounter on the Immortal Boat, Feng Jingyu called Fu Canghai “Master Fu”, so Han Yi followed suit.
Fu Canghai looked at Han Yi but didn’t speak. Instead, he examined Han Yi meticulously, as if appraising a piece of raw jade, making Han Yi’s hair stand on end.
After a long while, he finally said, “Not bad, very good indeed. No wonder Master Yuan wanted me to tag along with you on this trip.”
“Indeed, worthy of being someone he esteems. His vision is far superior to the
rest of us..”
