Chapter 1676 The person who wants your life
"Without further ado, let's select men and prepare to set off immediately."
Mingchuan waved his hand and said, "I will keep an eye on things through the Sky Observation Mirror and provide timely support if anything changes."
"understand!"
Ji Zhou and Chen Shu didn't linger any longer and turned to rush towards the area where the sect's disciples were gathered.
The unique aura emanating from the two individuals, so different from that of ordinary cultivators, along with the powerful spiritual energy fluctuations that had not yet been fully contained after their breakthroughs, drew the attention of disciples along the way.
"Look! It's Brother Jizhou and that kid Chen Shu!"
"They've emerged from seclusion! That aura... is incredibly strong!"
"And it feels so strange, even though they're standing right in front of me, it's like there's a veil between us."
"I heard they've mastered Doflamingo's newly created core technique; it seems it's true!"
"I'm so envious. I wonder when we'll be able to cultivate too..."
Listening to their disciples' discussion, Ji Zhou and Chen Shu exchanged a smile and quickened their pace.
They soon arrived at the square where Ah Xiong and the others usually practiced.
At this moment, Ah Xiong was sparring with several brothers. The wind from their punches howled, and their spiritual energy clashed. They were fighting fiercely.
Meng Dalang and Shi Guangyang were exchanging cultivation insights on the side. They were still practicing some of the freehand techniques that Ye Yan had taught them before. Although they had each made progress, their auras were noticeably less refined and profound compared to Ji Zhou and Chen Shu.
"Hey, Jizhou! Little Tree! You've come out of seclusion?"
Ah Xiong, with his sharp eyes, was the first to spot them. He immediately stopped his punches and ran over. He circled the two of them, clicking his tongue in amazement, "Wow, your auras... it's like you've become completely different people! Is Ming-ge's new technique that powerful?"
Meng Dalang and Shi Guangyang also came over. Sensing the restrained yet heart-pounding power emanating from the two, their eyes revealed shock and longing.
Ji Zhou nodded and said succinctly, "Ming has a new mission. Ah Xiong, Da Lang, Guang Yang, you guys immediately pick twenty of the best-skilled and quickest-witted brothers, change into civilian clothes, grab your weapons, and come with us."
"Something to do?" Ah Xiong's eyes lit up, rubbing his hands together eagerly. "Great! I'm so bored cultivating all day! Who's the opponent?"
Chen Shu interjected, "The Shadow Guards of the Qingcheng Imperial Law Sect are aiming to harass and prevent them from capturing the disciples of the Qingfeng Feather Sect."
"Shadow Guards?" Ah Xiong grinned and chuckled, "Whether they're in the open or in the shadows, they'll all get beaten to a pulp if they come!"
Ji Zhou laughed heartily: "Don't worry, we have advantages they can't even imagine. Let's move quickly, we'll discuss it in detail on the way."
Seeing that Jizhou and Chen Shu were so confident, and that they mentioned it was Mingchuan's order, Ah Xiong and the others didn't ask any more questions and immediately took action.
Soon, a team of twenty-two people, led by Ji Zhou, assisted by Chen Shu, and composed of elite disciples such as A Xiong, Meng Dalang, and Shi Guangyang, was assembled.
They changed into ordinary clothes and concealed their sect insignia, but the sharpness in their eyes could not be completely hidden.
"set off!"
At Ji Zhou's command, the team silently left the Observation Realm through the spatial passage that Ming Chuan had already quietly opened, and appeared in a desolate mountain forest in the Spirit Realm.
……
Meanwhile, outside a dark canyon somewhere in the Spirit Realm.
A group of men in black, as elusive as ghosts, were perfectly concealing themselves using the terrain and special techniques.
Their gazes were fixed on a Qingfeng Yumen squad that was resting at the entrance of the canyon.
This Qingfeng Yumen team was led by an elder in the early stage of Core Formation, while the rest were Foundation Establishment disciples, clearly undergoing routine training.
The Shadow Guard captain gave a subtle hand gesture, which his men understood instantly. Like venomous snakes poised to strike, they prepared to deliver a fatal blow.
However, just as they were about to erupt—
"Boo! Hah! Hah!"
Several sharp whooshing sounds rang out, not aimed at them, but at several specific nodes in the space around them!
It was a specially made talisman. When it exploded, it did not produce powerful destructive force, but it caused a slight but extremely disturbing spatial ripple!
This is a spatial interference talisman that Mingchuan gave to Jizhou and the others before he left!
Om-!
The concealment formation was instantly disrupted, and the figures of the Shadow Guards swayed violently like reflections in water. Although they were not fully revealed, their perfect concealment was broken!
"Who goes there?!" the Shadow Guard captain shouted in shock and anger.
His response was Jizhou's icy voice: "The one who'll take your life!"
Before he finished speaking, Jizhou appeared beside the captain like a ghost and threw a punch!
This punch seemed ordinary, but where the fist passed, space was slightly distorted, and a heavy dragon aura, accompanied by tearing power, suddenly erupted!
The Shadow Guard captain hastily parried, only to feel an indescribable force.
A sharp pain shot through his arm, his blood surged, and he was sent flying backward uncontrollably, his eyes filled with horror!
He had never heard of the opponent's power attribute before!
Almost simultaneously, Chen Shu's figure flashed behind another Shadow Guard.
Purple and blue flames swirled around his fingertips. The flames did not attack directly, but were transformed into several lines of fire under the control of an invisible force, coiling upwards like serpents!
The Shadow Guard felt the space around him tighten, his spiritual energy flow stagnate, and then illusions arose. The pain of ice and fire assaulted his soul!
"what!!!"
In an instant, screams erupted one after another!
"Form ranks!" A Shadow Guard attempted to organize a counterattack.
But Ah Xiong, Meng Dalang, and others had already charged into the enemy ranks like tigers descending a mountain.
Although they have not yet cultivated the "Myriad Transformations Return to One Technique", each of them is a battle-hardened elite with extremely rich combat experience.
At this moment, under the leadership of Ji Zhou and Chen Shu, the two core figures who have mastered the new power, their morale is soaring!
Ji Zhou and Chen Shu did not launch a direct attack. Instead, they used their keen perception of spatial fluctuations and the unique perspective brought by the "Myriad Transformations Return to One" technique to continuously guide A Xiong and others to attack the weak points of the Shadow Guard's combined attack formation, or to use spatial interference talismans to create local chaos!
The Shadow Guards' proud skills of stealth and coordinated attacks were almost completely ineffective against this well-coordinated, tactically unpredictable team with two monster-level cores!
"Withdraw! Quickly withdraw!"
The Shadow Guard captain coughed up blood and gave the order in a hoarse voice.
He simply couldn't understand the tactics of these enemies!
Those two strange flames were clearly the same purple illusion flame and bone-corroding ice flame that their Qingcheng Yufa Sect had previously possessed, yet something felt extremely wrong with them!
It seems its original attributes have already changed!
The way that space was distorted, and the energy fluctuations emanating from the two leaders that were completely different from spiritual power, all made him feel a deep sense of fear and powerlessness!
"Want to go?"
Jizhou snorted coldly, formed a hand seal, and a stronger spatial binding force field spread out.
Although the area was small, it precisely enveloped the few Shadow Guards who were trying to escape, making them feel as if they were stuck in a quagmire!
The battle was a one-sided, overwhelming affair!
