Chapter 51 One Step, One Kill
Chapter 51 One Step, One Kill
"Oh!"
Shi Zhongyu chuckled lightly, and facing the overwhelming killing intent, he vanished like a fleeting cloud, transforming into a blurry afterimage, and instantly plunged into the center of the crowd.
His movements were terrifyingly fast; his rises and falls were seamless, and despite the clashing weapons and raging aura around him, no one could catch his trajectory.
It wasn't that Shi Zhongyu underestimated these people; it was just that the highest-ranking among them was only a second-rate expert.
He unleashed the full power of the Northern Darkness Divine Art, unleashing an invisible suction force that was absolutely domineering.
Anyone who gets close will have their internal energy leaking out uncontrollably.
Vice Sect Master Su immediately noticed that his internal energy was surging out uncontrollably.
The fierce energy of the Ye Dao Alliance warriors and the malevolent aura of the Evil Fiend Hall... the internal energy of these warriors was like a flood bursting its banks, forcibly drawn out and devoured along their entire aura.
They stared at the handsome young man standing in the center, their faces contorted in disgust.
They wanted to break free from this suction force.
However, whenever someone tried to break free, Shi Zhongyu would flash past and forcefully envelop them.
Those evil masters who fought back desperately felt their dantian suddenly empty, their meridians go numb, and their internal energy, which they had cultivated for many years, was instantly drained away, leaving them completely drained in a short time.
"Successfully absorbed internal energy; Snow Mountain Mind Technique proficiency increased..."
"Successfully absorbed internal energy; Snow Mountain Mind Technique proficiency increased..."
His proficiency in internal energy was constantly being updated on the pages of the book.
Before Shi Zhongyu, those people who were fierce and menacing one moment suddenly became completely powerless, their cultivation completely transformed into the Northern Darkness True Qi.
In an instant, he was reduced to an ordinary person with no internal strength.
Whenever the opponent's internal energy dissipated, Shi Zhongyu would flick his long sword and slash it across the opponent's throat.
Shi Zhongyu rushed into the crowd, and people collapsed one after another, not even having time to scream.
What was originally a densely packed crowd of attackers crumbled rapidly under his rapid movement and the Northern Darkness Absorption Technique.
Three-quarters of an hour later, Shi Zhongyu stood amidst the corpses scattered on the ground. In front of him, Vice Sect Master Su and the others were all slumped on the ground, having lost all their internal energy.
However, Shi Zhongyu's aura became increasingly profound and enduring, and the hundreds of evil cultivators surrounding him all became resources for him to temper his inner strength.
The Transcendental Realm of the Snow Mountain Mind Method (19366/30000).
Despite the large number of people, he only gained a little over nine thousand proficiency points.
Shi Zhongyu felt the surging internal energy within his body, ignored the corpses, and sat down to the side to begin digesting the internal energy.
After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Shi Zhongyu opened his eyes again, and all his surging internal energy had calmed down.
Shi Zhongyu stood up and looked at the still-alive Vice Sect Master Su and the others.
Amidst the terrified gazes of the group, he swiftly ended their lives.
"Next, it's your sect's turn."
Shi Zhongyu mounted his horse and left the valley.
Seven days later, Shi Zhongyu rode his horse to the entrance of the Blissful Evil Sect.
Shi Zhongyu slowly stepped onto the mountain path, his clothes fluttering slightly in the gloomy wind of the secluded valley. His Northern Darkness True Qi was contained and not released, as calm as a mountain.
He stood before the gate of the Blissful Evil Sect, raising his eyes to look at the blood-red plaque with inlaid characters, his gaze turning cold.
After looking him over, he spoke in a loud voice.
"Those members of the Blissful Heretic Sect, come out here!"
"A few days ago, they ambushed and killed me in the valley. Today, I have come to settle old scores."
As soon as he finished speaking, the two gatekeepers on either side of the mountain gate appeared.
The two were dressed in tight-fitting outfits with purple-red evil patterns, their faces were pale, and they held crescent-shaped bone blades in their hands.
They looked Shi Zhongyu up and down, and seeing that he was all alone and very young, their expressions immediately turned contemptuous and cold.
The disciple on the left scoffed, crossed his arms, and coldly shouted, "Where did this wild brat come from, daring to spout nonsense in my Blissful Holy Sect!"
"You actually said that people from our Blissful Holy Sect intercepted you?"
"You don't even know your own limitations!"
Upon seeing the speaker, Shi Zhongyu immediately realized that the news of his annihilation of Vice Sect Master Su and others had not yet reached him.
Or perhaps the disciple didn't recognize his identity.
Before he could speak, the disciple on the right rubbed the blade between his fingers, his eyes flashing with malice, and his tone was sinister.
"Kid, since you've come here to die, you might as well not go back."
"Our sacred land of the Blissful Heretic Sect will not tolerate outsiders making noise at will!"
"Look at the knife!"
This disciple, whose cultivation was only third-rate, charged forward fiercely, brandishing his knife.
Just as he brought his knife down, he saw the boy in front of him catch it with one hand.
"Hmm? Somewhat..."
Before he could finish speaking, a hand suddenly appeared in front of him and pressed down on his forehead.
Shi Zhongyu activated the Northern Darkness Divine Art.
In just a breath, the disciple's internal energy was completely absorbed.
"Successfully absorbed internal energy; Snow Mountain Mind Technique proficiency increased by 200."
After absorbing the opponent's internal energy, Shi Zhongyu applied slight force with his palm and cracked the opponent's skull.
Upon seeing this, the other disciple was terrified and turned to flee.
The next moment, however, he saw the boy in front of him suddenly appear beside him, and before he could react, he followed in the footsteps of another fellow disciple.
Shi Zhongyu patted non-existent dust off his hands, stepped over the two corpses, and went straight into the gate of the Blissful Evil Sect.
Inside the gate was a path paved with black stones, with several extremely revealing stone statues of men and women entangled on both sides.
After Shi Zhongyu entered, he could see members of the evil sect dressed in brightly colored and tight-fitting clothes from time to time along the way.
These people looked at Shi Zhongyu with suspicion, somewhat bewildered.
Because this person's attire and appearance do not belong to their Blissful Holy Sect!
"Who are you...?"
One of the disciples had just opened his mouth to ask a question when Shi Zhongyu grabbed him by the throat.
After absorbing all of the opponent's internal energy in one breath, Shi Zhongyu finally crushed the opponent's throat.
The surrounding disciples finally realized what was happening, and they were furious as they looked at the lone Shi Zhongyu.
"You're asking for it!"
Several disciples rushed forward quickly, following in the footsteps of another disciple just as fast.
Shi Zhongyu killed almost every person with a single step, and those around him finally dared not approach.
In fear, they turned and ran deeper into the sect.
The chaotic situation of the disciples attracted the attention of some experts from the Blissful Evil Sect.
"Who dares to cause trouble at my Holy Sect!"
With a shout, a shirtless man with fiery red hair blocked Shi Zhongyu's path.
Shi Zhongyu glanced at the man in front of him, his eyes brightening slightly. Finally, someone with some weight had arrived.
The man with fiery red hair didn't make a move immediately; instead, he cautiously asked a question.
"Hey kid, who are you?"
Shi Zhongyu looked at the man with a half-smile.
"A few days ago, your Vice Sect Master Su led men to ambush and kill me. Who do you think I am?"
The man's expression changed upon hearing the sound.
"Jade-faced Yama!"
"It's me!"
As soon as Shi Zhongyu finished speaking, his figure suddenly quickened, and he arrived beside the man in the blink of an eye.
"court death!"
The man grabbed with both hands, his fingers carrying a sharp, forceful energy.
It's obvious that he has great skill with his fingers.
Shi Zhongyu suddenly stopped, allowing the other person to grab his shoulder.
Without a second thought, the man channeled his inner energy to crush Shi Zhongyu's shoulders.
The next moment, the internal energy within his body surged uncontrollably out of his arms.
After a few breaths, Shi Zhongyu looked at the fiery red-haired man lying limply on the ground.
He stepped on the other person's chest.
Just as his foot was about to stomp down, a man shouted, "Stop!"
