Chapter 211: I Will Personally Interrogate the Captives!
A clear sky and a bright sun, with not a cloud for ten thousand miles.
Or rather, there should have been clouds, but they had all been swept away by that sword strike just now, revealing the vast and magnificent scenery above the dome of the sky.
However, at this moment, no one cared.
Compared to the bright sun, everyone’s gaze was more focused on the sword light of the [Avici Sword] in Lu Yang’s hand, feeling only a bone-chilling coldness.
As Lu Yang’s gaze swept around, everyone involuntarily held their breath. Time seemed to stagnate at this moment. Even the Treasure-Laden Youth, who was full of resentment and wished to kill him just a moment ago, now had only speechless panic remaining on his face.
Lu Yang did not speak.
Everyone remained silent.
Splatter, splatter!
The clear sound of rain broke the silence. Each drop was transformed from the disintegration of Old Man Dragon Angler’s True Body. A heavy rain, all merging into the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth.
At a glance, the spirit tide surged.
It was as if even this piece of Heaven and Earth were cheering for it, clustering around the young man in the black cloak standing with his sword. Before him, all other Perfected Ones paled in comparison.
Whoosh.
A streak of flowing light flashed across the sky, steaming with multicolored hues. It was impressively the figure of Perfected One Five Elements… unexpectedly disappearing from the battlefield without looking back.
Only at this moment did the others understand why Perfected One Five Elements dared to actively bring up the rear. It was impressively because he had a talisman specifically for escaping in his hand. However, facing Lu Yang’s gaze at this moment, in his shock and anger, he didn’t even dare to engage, directly activating the talisman to run away!
‘What’s the point of fighting!’
Perfected One Five Elements knew his own situation. If he had been in Old Man Dragon Angler’s position just now, the best outcome would have been leaving behind a soul!
‘Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment Perfection, a body full of Superior Spirit Treasures, an Innate Divine Ability that seems to suppress others’ Divine Abilities, a Life-Bound Divine Ability that seems to influence the mind… The Demonic Sect is truly shameless! How could they let such a person out? This must be the direct descendant of some Perfected Lord coming to the [Kingdom of Qing] to get some gold plating.’
‘Bastard!’
While cursing furiously in his heart, Perfected One Five Elements fled rapidly. As for what he said earlier about actively bringing up the rear, he had long thrown it beyond the Ninth Heaven.
I am a Demonic Cultivator from Jiangbei, under the rule of the Saint Sect.
As everyone knows, I don’t keep promises!
Perfected One Five Elements’ flight was like pressing a switch. In the blink of an eye, the Treasure-Laden Youth and the others, who were huddled together just now, scattered like birds and beasts!
Everyone was running away!
However, Perfected One Yin Shan had been waiting on the periphery for a long time. Beside him, Han Xiang and another heroic woman at the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment also took action to block them simultaneously.
The other Jiangbei Perfected Ones at the Initial Stage of Foundation Establishment also charged forward in ecstasy. After all, for them, this was simply merit falling from the sky!
Meanwhile, Lu Yang also exhaled deeply, recovering his strength.
He didn’t refrain from acting just now to act cool; it was simply because the full-force strike to kill Old Man Dragon Angler had consumed too much of his spiritual power, which hadn’t recovered yet.
He had no choice but to stay silent and pretend to be an expert.
To be honest, he was prepared to use the [Mystic Cloak of Hundred Wards and Subdued Perils] to withstand the siege. He hadn’t expected this group of people to be scared out of their wits by him.
“Jiangdong rats…”
Lu Yang shook his head. The [Avici Sword] in his hand emitted an extremely excited sword hum. Infinite sword light rose within it, revealing a Divine Wonder.
[Butcher of Man]!
The death of Old Man Dragon Angler brought unimaginably great benefits to this Divine Wonder. As the Sword Master, Lu Yang could clearly feel that because Old Man Dragon Angler’s Dao Foundation was of the Water Element, from now on, the [Avici Sword] that killed him would have thirty percent more countering effect against all Water Element things!
“Just right to test its quality…”
Lu Yang’s gaze shifted, instantly locking onto a streak of escaping light that was fleeing. Observing its form, its Dao Foundation should also be of the Water Element, perfectly countered by him!
Thinking of this, Lu Yang immediately raised the [Avici Sword].
“Besides stabbing, slashing, and other offensive uses, a sword can also serve as a medium for casting spells. Using the [Avici Sword] to display Dao Arts actually provides some enhancement…”
In the next second, a streak of magnificent light appeared on the sword.
“[Imperial Mountain-Shifting Orthodox Method]!”
Lu Yang shouted the Daoist chant. Thunder rolled, and almost everyone heard his voice. However, in the next second, everyone’s escaping light sank abruptly!
It was as if a great mountain were pressing down on their bodies!
The characteristic of the [Imperial Mountain-Shifting Orthodox Method]— Upon hearing the sound of chanting, one immediately bears the burden of mountains and rivers, making the True Body difficult to move!
Among them, Fairy Yun He of the [Cloud-Climbing Sect] looked the most wretched. For some reason, she felt the opponent’s Dao Art land especially heavily on her body!
Clearly, her [Heaven-Union Cloud Water Dao Foundation] was the softest within Yin, most adept at borrowing force to strike force and resolving calamities. Yet now, encountering Lu Yang’s Dao Art, it was like soft fingers meeting tempered steel—she had no way to deal with it. Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but use her Divine Sense to glance in Lu Yang’s direction.
Then she saw Lu Yang slowly performing Hand Seals.
In the next second, Fairy Yun He’s beautiful eyes remained fixed in that moment of terror just emerging. Her red lips parted, looking as if they could fit an egg.
The characteristic of the [Imperial Mountain-Shifting Orthodox Method]— Upon seeing the Hand Seal movements, the heart immediately bears the weight of heavy peaks, making thoughts unable to turn!
Finally, Lu Yang pointed with his sword.
Fairy Yun He’s body was instantly covered with a layer of earthy gray. Mud surged from her seven orifices, instantly turning her into a lifelike clay figurine.
Boom!
The clay figurine fell, taking root upon landing. Countless earth and stones gathered, transforming into a small mountain in an instant, connected to the earth veins and bound together.
Only a muffled groan from Fairy Yun He remained between Heaven and Earth.
Seeing this scene, the other Perfected Ones ran even faster. How could they dare to stay? They were afraid that the next person pointed at and sealed by Lu Yang would be themselves.
Lu Yang held the [Avici Sword] in reverse and drifted lightly onto the peak of the small mountain transformed from Fairy Yun He.
Nearly an hour later.
This grand pursuit finally came to a halt. Perfected One Yin Shan was the first to return, carrying a wretched-looking middle-aged man in his hand.
Xia Weiming, the ancestor of the Zhaoxia Clan.
He was the first to be sneak-attacked and injured by Perfected One Yin Shan. With a mark planted on him, he had no way to escape and was captured alive by Perfected One Yin Shan.
Besides him, another Immortal Clan ancestor, Chen Anze, the Foundation Establishment Perfected One of the Yuanchen Clan, also failed to escape.
“Where are the others?”
“That’s all of them. Three people got away.” Perfected One Yin Shan laughed. “Especially that Treasure-Laden Youth. I specifically let him go back and didn’t let anyone chase him.”
Lu Yang nodded. “That person is rather stupid; he should be let back.”
Such stupid people on the opposite side are good teammates for our side. We can’t just kill them casually; otherwise, what if the other side replaces them with someone smarter?
“The remaining two?”
“It’s Perfected One Five Elements and a Sword Cultivator. Perfected One Five Elements ran fast. That Sword Cultivator should be from the [Shangxuan Sword Sect]. He has the background of the [Jade Pivot Sword Pavilion] and also obtained a life-saving item, so he was hard to chase.” Speaking to this point, Perfected One Yin Shan chuckled lightly, “But no matter what, this can be called a great victory!”
“Should we pursue the retreating enemy?”
“No rush.”
Lu Yang shook his head. “This time they came out to fight us, so we had the home-field advantage. If we chase over, it becomes fighting on their home field.”
“Bring all the captives here. I want to personally interrogate them!”
“Interrogate?” Perfected One Yin Shan was stunned upon hearing this.
“Rest assured, I have my means.”
Lu Yang waved his hand, then took Fairy Yun He and the two Immortal Clan ancestors back to Mount Gaizhu. He found a large hall and began to prepare.
Taking out the [Myriad Spirits Banner], he summoned Chen Xin’an.
Pointing at the two Immortal Clan ancestors on the ground, he pinched a seal and dropped a streak of [Celestial Mother Transformation Profound Light], then said to Chen Xin’an:
“These two are left to you.”
Chen Xin’an: “…”
