1232: Chapter 306_6 1232: Chapter 306_6 Two muffled thuds resonated, and both individuals fell into a pool of blood.
Beside them, Yun Qi immediately rose to his feet and flew off into the distance as soon as the two collapsed.
Indeed, he aimed to seize the relics below; he had noticed that the opponent was injured, yet who could have foreseen that such an injured individual could still be so powerful, instantly killing both his junior male and female disciples?
He himself was injured, and with his disciples dead, he would stand even less a chance against the opponent.
What else to do now but flee?
As for his junior male and female disciples.
They were dead and that was their ill fate.
After all, the path of Immortal Cultivation is so, where opportunities often mean dangers.
Who could have imagined that an injured Nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Core could be so formidable?
Nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Core…
And those almost transparent silver and orange wings…
While Yun Qi flew, suddenly a name came to mind!
Cao Zhen!
The widely talked-about Cao Zhen lately, who had reached the Golden Core Period Limit with just his Nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pills, and reportedly, obtained two treasures from the fallen Sound Doctrine Church, the Silverlight Wings, and the Orangelight Wings.
Cao Zhen, the person before him was undoubtedly Cao Zhen.
No wonder, even heavily wounded, a Nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Core could still be so strong, capable of killing his disciples.
Because at his full strength, he’s at the limit of the Golden Core Stage!
To think he had encountered Cao Zhen…
Cao Zhen, who had also unearthed the grave of a peerless master.
Whose grave had he dug up?
And this grave, how did he find it?
Was it sheer luck or did he have special means to discover it?
If it’s the latter, that would be terrifying!
Yun Qi dared not linger, flying away at full speed.
In flight, he pondered something that had been rumored—wasn’t Cao Zhen with Immortal Bi Yue nowadays?
And that they went to the Five Sounds Sect together.
This place wasn’t far from the Five Sounds Sect, yet only Cao Zhen was here, where was Immortal Bi Yue?
Why hadn’t Cao Zhen informed Immortal Bi Yue when he came to excavate the grave?
Perhaps, their relationship wasn’t as close as rumors suggested?
Or maybe, Cao Zhen wanted to monopolize the treasures of the grave, hence he didn’t tell Immortal Bi Yue.
That must be it.
After all, there were rumors that Cao Zhen had other companions who are also exceptional masters, yet none were seen this time.
It must be Cao Zhen’s intention to monopolize the treasures.
Cao Zhen was severely injured, he likely wouldn’t go far away; he would first find a place to heal, or return to the Five Sounds Sect.
If he could find a master outside, lying in ambush, he could just kill Cao Zhen and take the treasures from the grave.
It would be a matter of sharing a bit less among themselves.
That would still be better than gaining nothing!
Cao Zhen didn’t want this man to escape, intending to pursue, but after consecutively releasing a Golden Core and performing a sword strike, the energy within his body surged intensely.
“Pfft…” Cao Zhen spit out a mouthful of fresh blood, looking at the vanished silhouette helplessly shaking his head; his current state was not suitable for pursuit.
Moreover, with these three having noticed the grave, who knows if others might notice the changes here and come to investigate.
He must return quickly and take everything from the grave.
Cao Zhen quickly returned to the grave of the peerless Ancestral Elder Wu Shuang, rushed by time, he didn’t examine the treasures there, hastily stuffing everything into a Qiankun Bag.
Then, he thought of dismantling the surrounding great formation.
Fortunately, his luck held, waiting until he had dismantled the formation and taken all the treasures, nobody else came looking.
Fearing further visitors, Cao Zhen swiftly left the area, found a secluded cave, and began cultivating inside to recover from his injuries.
He also reestablished contact with his disciples.
Initially, he thought having Duo Duo come alone was enough, but now that he had been spotted, who knows, the information might spread.
Hence, the safest approach was to involve his other disciples, informing people from the Five Sounds Sect to come and escort him back.
Cao Zhen still did not disturb Ling Xi and Yan Yourong but informed Bei Yan instead.
Soon enough, Bei Yan relayed the situation to Li Ke and Bi Yue.
Primarily because he wasn’t familiar with the people of the Five Sounds Sect, to dispatch a master from there, it was best to involve Bi Yue.
When Array Sound saw Bi Yue and learned about Cao Zhen’s severe injuries, he was greatly upset; Cao Zhen was supposed to help their Five Sounds Sect endure the Heavenly Tribulation, yet now he had suffered severe injuries, and such that he couldn’t return and needed them to send a master to retrieve him.
With such severe injuries, by the time the Five Sounds Sect faced their Heavenly Tribulation, would Cao Zhen have recovered?
He was resigned, it seemed like Cao Zhen and the others took turns getting injured, barely had Immortal Bi Yue’s injuries healed when Cao Zhen was hurt.
What were they doing?
Array Sound was truly exhausted but had no choice except to send people to meet Cao Zhen.
After all, there was still time before their Five Sounds Sect faced the Heavenly Tribulation, and Cao Zhen might recover in time to aid them, he couldn’t ignore this.
Five days later, Duo Duo and others from the Five Sounds Sect finally located Cao Zhen, navigating a flying boat, they took Cao Zhen towards the direction of the Five Sounds Sect.
