Ringing the Bell for a Hundred Years, I Became the Sect’s Ancestor – Chapter 98

Chapter 98: Double Kill

Bang!

The blade’s light clashed with the cold glint.

In an instant, the blade’s light shattered.

The Celestial Being from Prince Luo’s Residence trembled slightly, then his body tilted as a cold glint passed through, drawing a spray of blood.

Hiss!

The Celestial Being’s face was filled with shock. As he sensed the scene of Real Person Yangmei from the Purple Cloud Sect being beheaded with a single sword strike, he gasped and immediately soared into the air, attempting to escape.

The terrifying Celestial Being who had appeared out of nowhere and assassinated Real Person Yangmei with a single sword strike was truly terrifying.

Although Real Person Yangmei was only at the early stage of the Celestial Being Realm, he was still a Celestial Being.

Even a Top-Tier Celestial Being wouldn’t be able to kill him with a single sword strike, right?

This was too outrageous.

Too terrifying.

Moreover, the sword strike that Xiao Wendao had suddenly unleashed was equally dangerous.

He actually failed to block it.

His shoulder was pierced by that small sword, which was like an embroidery needle.

No wonder he was able to counter-kill Chen Ao.

Xiao Wendao had used his last bit of strength and had no more energy left.

He couldn’t even control his Wheat Awns Divine Sword and could only watch as the small sword shot out a great distance and stabbed into a tree trunk.

He could only watch helplessly as the Celestial Being from Prince Luo’s Residence soared into the air and escaped.

At this moment, Li Qian, who had killed Real Person Yangmei of the Purple Cloud Sect with a single sword strike, suddenly had a cold glint in his eyes as he thrust out a sword with his backhand.

The sword light was like a soul chaser.

Accompanied by the Time Bell’s sound attack.

Dong!

The Celestial Being from Prince Luo’s Residence, who was still in mid-air, felt a bell ringing in his mind, which almost caused him to lose consciousness. His Martial Intent became unstable, and his True Qi went out of control.

However, he recovered in an instant.

But the sword light, which came later but arrived first, had already approached his back.

Suddenly, his body shrank abruptly, as if he had shrunk into a child in an instant, and he instantly broke free from his clothes.

Golden Cicada Shedding Its Skin.

This was a secret technique of his.

Bang!

The sword light landed on the clothes, and a sound like metal clashing against stone was heard.

Those clothes were not ordinary clothes. They seemed to be forged from special metal, and a layer of True Qi from the Celestial Being from Prince Luo’s Residence had been set up on them.

However, no matter how strong the defensive power of these clothes was, they were instantly torn apart.

But the Celestial Being from Prince Luo’s Residence took the opportunity to escape into the air.

Just as he was secretly rejoicing, a strange golden light appeared around Li Qian’s body, enveloping him as he suddenly shot up into the sky.

At the same time, Li Qian threw out a punch. Rolling golden Qi and blood gathered, transforming into a plume of wolf smoke that pierced through the sky and bombarded the Celestial Being from Prince Luo’s Residence.

The Celestial Being from Prince Luo’s Residence had True Qi all over his body and didn’t think that this attack, which didn’t seem very powerful, could threaten him.

But when the fist light, which was like wolf smoke, struck his body…

He felt his entire body tremble. The Qi and blood in his body instantly went into turmoil, and the Qi around his body instantly lost control and collapsed. At the same time, he couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

“Damn it, what kind of attack is this?”

He was extremely terrified.

First, it was that terrifying bell sound, and then it was this strange fist light that didn’t seem very powerful.

At this time, Li Qian had already chased after the Celestial Being from Prince Luo’s Residence.

Just now, he had a flash of inspiration and suddenly used a fist technique to compress the Rudimentary Blood and Qi Sanctuary into a single punch, which he then launched out of his body.

It actually worked.

This meant that the Rudimentary Blood and Qi Sanctuary was not simply limited to short-range, area-of-effect Qi and blood control.

It could also be used for long-range Qi and blood attacks.

This way, the Rudimentary Blood and Qi Sanctuary’s uselessness could be greatly improved.

Li Qian’s gaze, hidden beneath the black cloak, was extremely calm. The Sword Eighteen in his hand trembled as he thrust it out. Rolling Sword Intent, accompanied by Sword Qi, tore through the night.

At the same time, the Time Bell attack and the Rudimentary Blood and Qi Sanctuary were also activated.

The Time Bell attack would consume a certain amount of Li Qian’s spirit, but not much, so there wasn’t much of a restriction on him using it.

The Rudimentary Blood and Qi Sanctuary was different.

When this divine ability was used, it consumed a lot of Qi and blood.

If it was used too many times, and his Qi and blood were excessively consumed, it would be the same as when his True Qi was depleted, making it impossible to use the Rudimentary Blood and Qi Sanctuary.

However, he still felt that the power displayed by the Rudimentary Blood and Qi Sanctuary was only average and could not be called a divine ability.

It was probably related to the fact that the Blood and Qi Sanctuary was still in its rudimentary form.

He believed that once the Rudimentary Blood and Qi Sanctuary’s progress reached 100%, it should be able to truly display the power of a divine ability.

The Celestial Being from Prince Luo’s Residence felt a chill in his heart when he saw the man in the black cloak chasing after him. He immediately shook his saber, activating his Saber Intent and True Qi. Rolling Saber Qi wrapped around his body like a copper wall and an iron bastion.

But in the next moment, that damned bell sound rang out in his mind again.

At the same time, the Qi and blood in his body went into turmoil again.

Li Qian waved the Sword Eighteen and easily broke through the opponent’s rolling Saber Qi.

Under the mental shock of the bell sound and the Qi and blood control, this Celestial Being was unable to display his full strength at all.

As the sword pierced through, it pierced through the chest of the Celestial Being from Prince Luo’s Residence.

The Celestial Being looked down blankly at the blood gushing out of his chest, then at the man in the black cloak. His consciousness began to gradually fade.

Bang!

The Celestial Being, who had not yet completely died, fell from the sky.

Landing in the bushes, his body was still twitching, and his wide-open eyes stared blankly at the moonlight that had already emerged from the clouds.

“Why, why…”

After he uttered a few words, he completely died.

Swoosh!

Li Qian landed from the sky, picked up the Celestial Being’s corpse, and walked to the river.

Xiao Wendao looked at the man in the black cloak who walked out of the darkness, carrying a Celestial Being’s corpse in his hand.

His heart was filled with shock, shock, and more shock.

Although he had used his trump card to hold back a Celestial Being, the fact that the man in the black cloak had swiftly killed two Celestial Beings in a row was terrifying.

Could it be a Top-Tier Celestial Being?

Only a Top-Tier Celestial Being would have such strength.

After all, a middle-stage Celestial Being might be able to suppress and defeat an early-stage Celestial Being, but it would be impossible to kill them so swiftly.

Moreover, this man in the black cloak had killed Chen Ao a few months ago.

That’s right.

He recognized him.

This man in the black cloak was the one who had saved him a few months ago…

He felt that he was really lucky to have been saved by this man in the black cloak again.

He wondered if this black-cloaked Celestial Being had been following him all along?

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence every time?

“Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for saving my life again.”

Xiao Wendao wanted to stand up, but his injuries were too severe. In addition, he had just used a secret technique, so he couldn’t stand up at all. Thus, he could only cup his hands and say this while sitting.

◈◈◈

Li Qian ignored Xiao Wendao and began to loot the corpses.

After obtaining two cloth bags, he also obtained two weapons: Real Person Yangmei’s horsetail whisk and the Celestial Being from Prince Luo’s Residence’s saber. They were clearly both Divinely Forged Artifacts.

Although these two weapons were of no use to him…

It didn’t stop him from liking to collect spoils of war.

Xiao Wendao felt a little awkward when he saw that the other party was ignoring him.

Just as Li Qian was about to leave with the spoils of war, he suddenly stopped and looked at Xiao Wendao. This Celestial Being from the Divine Sword Sect was in a very bad state.

If he left like this, he might die here.

Thinking of this, Li Qian rummaged through his bosom and took out a dark yellow pill, which he tossed to Xiao Wendao. “It’s for healing injuries. Eat it.”

His voice was hoarse, making it impossible to recognize him.

The pill he gave Xiao Wendao was a type of pill from the black iron ring. After conducting various experiments, he had confirmed that this pill had a very good effect on treating internal injuries.

From the experiments he had conducted on animals, there were no toxic side effects.

It should be fine for humans to consume it.

It just so happened that he could use this Celestial Being Xiao as an experiment.

“Thank you, Fellow Daoist.”

Xiao Wendao took the pill. Although he couldn’t recognize what kind of pill it was, the other party had saved him twice. If they really wanted to harm him, there was no need to waste a pill.

So he swallowed it directly.

As the pill entered his stomach, he immediately felt a strong medicinal power violently erupt.

“What a powerful pill.”

He was greatly shocked and quickly focused his mind, beginning to circulate his breath.

A moment later, the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi surged and gathered around Xiao Wendao.

Although Li Qian did not use his spiritual perception, he could still keenly sense that Xiao Wendao’s physical condition seemed to be rapidly improving.

After a long time, Xiao Wendao suddenly let out a long breath and opened his eyes. His face had actually turned rosy.

Moreover, his originally weak life force had actually become much more vigorous.

A look of pleasant surprise appeared on his face.

Because the effect of this pill was truly astonishing.

Not only had most of his injuries healed, but even his severely depleted life force seemed to have recovered by about 20%.

One had to know that he had fought repeatedly, suffered serious injuries, and used secret techniques many times. His life force was almost exhausted. If not for this pill, even if he didn’t die this time, he would probably die within half a month.

But now, recovering 20% of his life force meant that he should have no problem living for another ten to eight years.

“Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for the pill.”

Xiao Wendao quickly stood up and bowed deeply to Li Qian, feeling extremely grateful.

This pill had directly brought him back to life from the brink of death.

This meant that he would be able to participate in the battle against Prince Luo’s army next.

Moreover, Prince Luo’s side had lost two Celestial Beings this time, and he had recovered, so it was equivalent to a difference of three Celestial Beings.

If this powerful and mysterious Celestial Being could join them, the advantage would be on the side of the Divine Sword Sect.

Unfortunately, he could only think about this. The other party had saved him twice and even given him a healing pill that was like a divine medicine. They had already done their best.

Li Qian didn’t say anything and turned to leave.

He still had to find the whereabouts of that Half-Demon Legion. It would be best to slaughter them all before they transformed.

That way, the Half-Demon Legion would be useless.

It would be much easier for the Divine Sword Sect to defend.

After seeing the man in the black cloak leave, Xiao Wendao took a deep breath and immediately dug a big hole, burying the corpses of Real Person Yangmei and the other Celestial Being.

Then, he used his own Sword Intent to communicate with the Wheat Awns Divine Sword. Immediately, a cold glint flew back from the forest and landed in his palm. As rolling Yuan Qi gathered, he soared into the air and quickly flew towards the Divine Sword Sect.

It took him more than an hour to return to the Divine Sword Sect, covering a distance of nearly 200 miles. This was mainly because he was recovering his True Qi while flying. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have taken him so long.

When Xiao Wendao landed in the Divine Sword Hall Plaza, he immediately alerted the higher-ups of the Divine Sword Sect.

“Grand Martial Uncle, you, you’re not dead.”

Sect Master Feng Shaoyu’s eyes were slightly red. When he saw Xiao Wendao, he was so excited that he was a little incoherent.

The others were equally excited.

In their hearts, Xiao Wendao was like their backbone.

Now that their backbone had returned, they felt hope again.

“How could this old man die? Why don’t you go out and ask around what this old man’s nickname is?”

Xiao Wendao, who was dressed in rags and looked like a beggar, snorted coldly. With his hands behind his back, he was about to enter the Divine Sword Hall.

Suddenly, four figures appeared in the plaza. They were the other four Celestial Beings.

They couldn’t believe their eyes when they saw Xiao Wendao return.

In that kind of situation, blocking the pursuit of the Celestial Beings from Prince Luo’s Residence, Xiao Wendao could actually come back alive?

This was too outrageous, wasn’t it?

“Fellow Daoist Xiao, how did you escape?”

Celestial Being Ye from Prince Ye’s Residence quickly asked.

He felt that if he were in that kind of situation, he would definitely not be able to survive.

What was even more unexpected was that although Xiao Wendao looked very disheveled, his aura was not weak. It seemed that his injuries were not serious.

“Hehe, after I killed Real Person Yangmei and Han Tianbao from Prince Luo’s Residence, I naturally came back alive.”

Xiao Wendao said with a smile.

“What?”

“You killed Real Person Yangmei and Han Tianbao?”

“How is that possible?”

The four Celestial Beings were all greatly shocked, their faces full of disbelief.

“It was just luck.”

Xiao Wendao waved his hand and said, “Those two were too careless, which is why I was able to succeed in my sneak attack. Otherwise, the one who died would be me.”

The four Celestial Beings looked at each other.

But it was a fact that Xiao Wendao had come back alive.

Previously, there was also the feat of counter-killing Celestial Being Chen Ao of the Mysterious Netherworld Sect while being pursued.

It couldn’t be a lie, right?

Once Prince Luo’s army arrived and the battle began, as long as those two Celestial Beings appeared, the lie would be exposed.
