Seeing that there was nobody nearby, he hurriedly lifted his clothes, revealing a fist-sized skeleton that was inside. That skeleton was covered in a grey substance. There was also a dark brown color that resembled the color of blood that had been dried for many years. At that moment, a tiny fracture had appeared on its skull!

“What’s wrong with you? D-didn’t you say that you want the Qi and blood of a regular Enlightenment stage? I gave you the chance just now.”

His volume was extremely soft, as he was seemingly afraid that people would discover that he was talking to that skeleton right now!

But at that moment, the skeleton trembled slightly.

The thing inside his clothes seemed very frail and was having a lot of difficulties when trying to speak. It had just awakened from its eternal slumber...

One could almost make out a strange grimace on the thing’s face and it seemed to have a mouth full of blood...

“That... that... that is no... Enlightenment stage...”

After the extremely frail being inside his clothes had uttered those words, it immediately became motionless.

Ji Ling gritted his teeth.

Go on!

Keep on speaking!

You’re always like this...

You said that you’d give me strength as long as I kept offering sacrifices to you... you want disciples in the Enlightenment stage... today, he had given it a go by provoking his senior brother Shen Changge, but in the end... the skeleton had fractured?

Shen Changge, was he not in the Enlightenment stage?

How was that possible?

In all honesty, he was already very surprised about Shen Changge stepping into the Enlightenment stage. There were many disciples besides him present at the venue when Shen Changge had done so. Because of that, many within the Empyrean Sword Sect were aware of Shen Changge’s strength.

But the skeleton...

Ji Ling could not resist taking a glance at the skeleton he had hidden in his clothes. His eyes reflected his confusion. The skeleton would not lie to him, at least not about this kind of thing...

“Ji...”

Another disciple got a strange feeling when he saw Ji ling standing off to the side. He wanted to come over and say hello but Ji Ling’s reaction was odd. He immediately pulled up his clothes with a bizarre look in his eyes. At that very moment, his eyes looked as if they were full of rage and they were red at the bottom. In a daze, a bizarre thought emerged in this disciple’s mind. He had seemingly only ever seen such eyes on demons...

“What do you want with me?” Ji Ling asked harshly.

“Nothing, nothing.”

The disciple hurried away.

Ji Ling breathed a sigh of relief.

Even the hand he had inside of his clothes to hold the skeleton was shivering. If this matter with the skeleton was discovered... his death would be certain...

At that moment, Shen Changge’s eyes suddenly became cold. Just now, he had felt a touch of draining power from Ji Ling’s body, but he remained silent. When the draining power surged towards him, he had secretly unleashed a wisp of extremely piercing spiritual energy infused with the Empyrean Sword Manual’s force...

Although he was walking ahead of Ji Ling, he looked sideways at him from time to time.

“This kid...”

His eyes gradually become solemn.

Something seemed fishy.

As he continued walking forward, he saw Zhang Sanjian. Seeing that the old geezer was still alive and that he could still raise his chin in such an imposing way to act all high and mighty, a content smile spread across Shen Changge’s face.

At that moment, Zhang Sanjian also noticed Shen Changge’s arrival.

For some reason, when he saw Shen Changge this time, he felt like something about Shen Changge had changed...

“This kid...”

Zhang Sanjian squinted his eyes and gazed at Shen Changge.

“I’m just a lot more handsome than you. You don’t have to be surprised about it,” Shen Changge said.

Shen Changge did not panic at all. The old geezer was severely wounded, and his Cultivation Base had fallen. It could be said that right now, even a simple strike of his sword could finish off the old man. Is he thinking about inspecting my Cultivation Base? When I gain full mastery over Spirit Guidance, no one will be able to tell my Cultivation Base.

“Why can’t I see through you?” Zhang Sanjian’s eyes were on fire.

Shen Changge sneered. He did not speak. He raised his chin slightly and stared at Zhang Sanjian haughtily.

Zhang Sanjian felt very uncomfortable about being stared at like that. This kid is really asking for a beating.

Zhang Sanjian’s teeth were itching out of anger.

Especially Shen Changge being more handsome than me? He wanted to refute it, but when he looked at Shen Changge’s face and thought about how his own face had looked when he was young...

He swallowed back the words in his throat. His balled-up fists loosened, and he clenched them again with greater strength.

F*ck!

Zhang Sanjian sighed. I must have gone mad for a bit there, but for a moment just now, I was thinking about whether or not this kid could’ve killed that demon’s main body. I must be insane.

It was said that this kid had broken into the Enlightenment stage.

But what could that possibly do? Someone in the Enlightenment stage would still be powerless against the main body of that demon.

As long as that rooster made even the slightest movement, it could make him surrender his weapons and beg for mercy.

“The dark mist is dissipating,” Zhang Sanjian said.

Had it finally begun to dissipate?

Shen Changge nodded gently.

“We have to capture the Small Scripture Repository as soon as possible and splatter the blood of people above the Enlightenment stage around the border. With the life force in the blood of humans, we can prevent the dark mist from spreading once again,” Zhang Sanjian said.

...

After the dark mist dissipated, the blood of humans, particularly from those above the Enlightenment stage, had to be splattered at the area’s borders to keep the dark mist from rising yet again. Of course, this method would not affect the demons in the dark mist, but instead, the life force emanating from the human blood would cause the demons to grow enraged.

The dark mist gradually dissipated.

Many disciples of the sect had already been gathered here.

They were all above the Enlightenment stage, and most of them were in Late-stage Enlightenment.

Evidently, the Empyrean Sword Sect was very keen on territorial expansion. Although it was only the Small Scripture Repository and there were not many scriptures left in it, for the current Empyrean Sword Sect, even those few scrolls were considered extremely precious.

The dark mist had gradually begun to dissipate.

The disciples cut their hands open with a knife and spilled their blood at the spots where the black mist faded.

As anticipated, the dark mist behaved as if it was restricted to the area outside the blood!

It could not even advance an inch!

Zhang Sanjian, however, was very worried. The disciples all thought that the person who killed the demon’s main body was some great hidden figure in the sword sect. But as he was the Sect Lord, it was impossible that he wouldn’t be aware of such a situation in the sect...

No such person existed in the Empyrean Sword Sect. If not, he would not have to try so hard...

...

So, who was it?

While he was caught deep in thought, someone said, “Great master! We found a body! Judging from its condition, the death probably occurred within the last three days!”

“A body?”

Zhang Sanjian was stunned for a moment. Then, his expression quickly changed and he hurried over. Sheng Changge tagged along as well.

Taking a look at the corpse, its face appeared horrified and there was a small hole in his chest. Obviously, this person had been killed by that little girl.

However, what truly put an awful look on everyone’s face was that this person was definitely not from the Empyrean Sword Sect!

He was from another sect!

There were too many sects in the Empyrean Sword Domain. Originally, when the Empyrean Sword Sect was at its peak, everyone else had to abide by whatever it was that they decided. However, after the Empyrean Sword Sect’s subsequent downfall and the loss of their core sword manuals, many other sects appeared in the Empyrean Sword Domain.

This corpse evidently belonged to the disciple of another sect who had come out to scout the area. He had ended up dying over here...

Were they going to encounter other sects soon?

Would it turn out to be good or bad? Would both parties live in peace and work together to deal with the dark mist, or would they face each other with swords and start to devour each other?

“Dispatch some of our disciples to stand guard at this area. No areas must be left unwatched!” Zhang Sanjian said.

His face was solemn. If the current Empyrean Sword Sect were to encounter another powerful sect, they would undoubtedly perish. After all, there was no power manual in the sword sect that could be used as a bargaining chip. Would the other party form an alliance with them and provide for the 100 people they had with nothing in return?
