Chapter 828 Heretical Ways
"I am a martial artist from the Xuantian Cave Mansion. If I die, let alone the entire Xuantian Cave Mansion, even the Dao Sect and the Chanfo Yuan Sect will avenge me!"
Seeing a trace of solemnity appear on Chen Yang's face, Venerable Xuanfeng thought Chen Yang was worried in his heart and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Chen Yang, our sects are different from the aristocratic families and sects outside. Only true genius martial artists can join."
"Joining us not only gives you protection, but also true cultivation techniques!"
"You are already at the peak of the Grandmaster realm in the Body Refining stage. You must need a large amount of blood qi treasures. If you join our Xuantian Cave Mansion, you can become a Venerable like me!"
As Venerable Xuanfeng excitedly spoke about the benefits of becoming a Venerable, his hand did not stop.
A short sword condensed from internal energy instantly shot from behind Venerable Xuanfeng towards Chen Yang's Sea of Consciousness at his forehead.
Because Chen Yang and Venerable Xuanfeng were very close, even if he used that mysterious movement technique, he wouldn't be able to dodge it!
Chen Yang was doomed!
Even a peak Grandmaster in the Body Refining stage would have their Sea of Consciousness as the weakest point.
With the Sea of Consciousness shattered, one would either die or be severely injured!
Just as a trace of a smile appeared on Venerable Xuanfeng's face, he suddenly felt the environment around him change.
The sword formed from internal energy had not yet reached Chen Yang's body when it seemed to sense some resistance, and its speed visibly slowed down.
Although he didn't know how Chen Yang had done all this, Venerable Xuanfeng understood that if he didn't leave now, it would be too late. He gritted his teeth and directly drew out most of the remaining internal energy in his body, preparing to escape by exploding his internal energy.
But at this moment, Venerable Xuanfeng found that when he tried to mobilize the internal energy within his body, it felt sluggish.
This sluggishness appeared out of nowhere and was getting heavier and heavier!
At the same time, a black, viscous substance appeared beneath him. Not only that, this mud-like substance was also pulling his feet down with all its might.
At this point, even if Venerable Xuanfeng was stupid, he would have realized that everything was Chen Yang's doing!
Venerable Xuanfeng glared at Chen Yang with concentration and said, "Heretical techniques! You really are no good thing!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yang burst into laughter.
Chen Yang looked at Venerable Xuanfeng and said with a smile, "You shouldn't speak carelessly. This set of cultivation techniques is a proper and legitimate one, originating from the Star Constellation techniques."
Although using the Star Constellation techniques to trap Venerable Xuanfeng of the same realm consumed a lot of internal energy, even a dozen seconds was enough.
As Chen Yang spoke, the flame internal energy and cold water internal energy within his body immediately eroded Venerable Xuanfeng through the Star Constellation techniques.
Just as Chen Yang was about to deal with the Venerable Xuanfeng in front of him, a pretty figure suddenly appeared before Chen Yang and blocked him.
The person was Chen Shu.
"Shu'er? Why are you here?"
Chen Shu looked at the trapped Venerable Xuanfeng, then sent a blast of internal energy towards him. Under the enhancement of Chen Shu's internal energy, Venerable Xuanfeng found it difficult even to breathe.
"The martial artists from the Zhou family have all been taken away by Zhou Zeyao."
"You mentioned before that you still needed to deal with the Zhou family. I originally thought of keeping those martial artists from the Zhou family, but seeing Zhou Zeyao's intention, it seemed he wanted to stay at the Zhou family for a while longer, so I simply let them leave."
Others might know some of what Chen Yang had experienced during this period, but the one person who knew all of Chen Yang's experiences from beginning to end was only one.
That person was Chen Shu.
When Chen Shu received the ancient martial arts books that Chen Yang had asked Nan Zhu to send, she already knew about Zhou Zeyao.
"Hmm, Zhou Zeyao still needs to contact the Zhu family. It's good to let him gather more information at the Zhou family."
As soon as Chen Yang finished speaking, he asked, "What are you going to do with this martial artist from the Xuantian Cave Mansion?"
Chen Yang knew that Chen Shu would not stop him without reason.
If Beixuan or Dongcang had come to stop him, Chen Yang could guess what they were worried about.
But Chen Shu...
"It's nothing much, mainly I want to understand the true strength of the peak Grandmaster realm."
"The books you sent me before are very old. To truly understand sects like the Xuantian Cave Mansion, we need a martial artist like him."
As Chen Shu said this, her eyes fell on Venerable Xuanfeng.
For some reason, when Venerable Xuanfeng met Chen Shu's gaze, he felt an inexplicable tension and fear in his heart.
Chen Yang suddenly thought of something. Since Chen Shu was formed from the Bronze Tree, did she also possess the abilities of the Bronze Tree itself?
The Bronze Tree could absorb the memories and vital essence of others. Wouldn't that mean Chen Shu could too!
Chen Shu seemed to know what Chen Yang was thinking and smiled faintly, "Alright, leave this person to me. You go back and check on those three fellows. When I left, those three seemed to be showing signs of breaking through."
Chen Yang understood that the three fellows Chen Shu was referring to were the three demonic beasts.
The three demonic beasts had absorbed a lot of blood qi. If they could absorb all the remaining blood qi, it would be normal for them to break through.
"Alright, I'll leave this person to you."
The moment Chen Yang left, the trapped Venerable Xuanfeng immediately felt the sluggishness on his body disappearing.
When Chen Yang had completely disappeared, Venerable Xuanfeng looked at the back of the mysterious woman in front of him and sneered.
Now that the restriction of the mysterious technique was gone, even with an arm severed, he was still a peak Grandmaster, and in the Body Refining stage at that!
However, just as Venerable Xuanfeng was about to deal with the mysterious woman in front of him, the other party suddenly turned her head to look at him.
Her eyes held no fear or nervousness, but rather an expression of looking at an animal.
Venerable Xuanfeng's scalp tingled under that gaze. Just as he was about to make a move, he suddenly felt a sharp pain.
Then he heard the mysterious woman say, "Just lie there quietly, and you won't suffer. Don't worry, I'll leave you with a complete corpse."
Before Venerable Xuanfeng could react, he felt the remaining vital essence in his body slowly disappearing.
Venerable Xuanfeng used his last ounce of strength, looked up at the mysterious woman, and said, "Refining the vital essence of others, heretical ways!"
At this moment, inside the Xuantian Cave Mansion, a soul tablet suddenly shattered.
Along with the shattering of the tablet was a mournful scream.
The many martial artists of the Xuantian Cave Mansion were all startled.
The shattering of a soul tablet represented the death of a martial artist!
It was a true death!
This was something very difficult for the martial artists of the Xuantian Cave Mansion to accept.
