According to the speed of the escort team, it would take around ten days to cross the Proud Sun Empire.
They would arrive at the border between the Proud Sun Empire and the Blaze Scar Empire.
After entering the Proud Sun Empire, Nangong Ye kept a low profile. He tried his best to lead the team along empty mountain paths, avoiding the prosperous cities of the Proud Sun Empire.
He would not interact with the various sects of the Proud Sun Empire either.
It seemed that Nangong Ye did not dare to be too ostentatious after his injuries.
However, news of the Beacon Fire Empire marrying off a princess had reached the Proud Sun Empire long ago. As a result, the Proud Sun Empire did not seem too curious about this team.
Occasionally, a few true qi realm cultivators would come to ask around, but Nangong Ye easily dealt with them.
Seven days passed just like that.
Xiao Han currently sat cross-legged in a large carriage.
Xiao Han's body shone with golden light, bone inscriptions faintly visible. He was cultivating the Invincible Golden Body.
Xiao Han's pure physical strength had increased to 1500 cauldrons.
He was completely different from a normal person.
He was comparable to a savage beast in the truest sense of the word.
A normal person's physical body could not withstand such violent strength. It would definitely explode.
However, Xiao Han's physical body would only grow stronger the more he cultivated. There was no limit.
"Using the Invincible Golden Body now is very interesting. I can absorb other people's true qi and convert it into my own physical strength." Xiao Han smiled.
"As expected of one of the martial arts used to seal the evil egg.
I've refined the essence and taste.
Now, my body is full and sturdy, and my weight far exceeds five hundred kilograms.
My bones are especially heavy now that they've turned into golden bones. "
As for his true qi cultivation, Xiao Han had opened fourteen true acupoints. With the replenishment of supreme grade true qi stones, the Spirit Turtle true qi and Hornless Dragon Profound Ice true qi had filled his true acupoints and virtual acupoints.
He could change them as he pleased.
The difference between the first and second stage true qi was not just the number of true acupoints opened.
It was related to the speed of thought and the transformation of the soul.
Simply put, after breaking through the barrier of the eleventh true acupoint and reaching the second stage, Xiao Han's thought process was roughly twice as fast as when he was at the first stage.
This increased Xiao Han's speed and reaction time to dodge the enemy's attacks. At the same time, his attack speed also increased.
His soul was firm and full.
His blade intent was solid.
In addition, his lifespan had increased.
Fang Ling had once told Xiao Han that those in the Martial Dao could have at least 300 years of lifespan after tempering their bodies to the peak of perfection.
After that, he would enter the Zhenqi realm. Every time he opened a true acupoint, his lifespan would increase by roughly 30 years.
In other words, Xiao Han could easily live up to 700 years old.
Martial artists could overcome the natural aging process.
"The saber intent is getting sharper.
It had almost reached the peak of the Initial Success Stage.
However, Saber Intent was very mysterious. How could one reach the threshold of Middle Stage Saber Intent?
It's too ethereal … "When Xiao Han was pondering over the saber intent, he was the most confused because the saber intent was formless.
However, he knew that once his Sword Dao reached the middle stage, his combat power would increase by at least a level, perhaps even more.
"Also, the third form of the Seven Fragment Saber Art, the Intent Shattering Form … How does it shatter my saber intent?
Let him undergo nirvana rebirth?
It is extremely dangerous to shatter your own saber intent. If you are not careful, your saber intent will be completely destroyed. Furthermore, your comprehension of the Saber Dao will not improve for the rest of your life.
The Martial Dao was too vast and profound.
Xiao Han's Martial Dao path was not a simple path.
However, Xiao Han excelled in diligence and perseverance. He continued to comprehend and study the Martial Dao.
He would not give up easily.
At the front of the group.
Nangong Ye's pale and dispirited face was slowly regaining some color, as though he was in high spirits.
His aura was like a rainbow.
His eyes shone with the aura of being in control of everything.
"General Nangong, have you recovered from your injuries?" A deputy general asked carefully.
"Fortunately, I do not lack healing medicines. I have recovered by 70%." Nangong Ye laughed coldly.
"70% of my combat power is enough to kill that guy!
Even though he had comprehended the saber intent, there are thousands of Daos. Saber intent and sword intent are not the only things that are ethereal and unreal.
I have opened 35 true acupoints at Fourth Stage True Qi. That guy has opened 14 true acupoints at Second Stage True Qi.
The gap between us is too big. It is not enough to describe it as the difference between heaven and earth! "
"Yes, General. You are two levels ahead. Killing that guy will be as easy as blowing off dust.
Don't worry, General. I have already given the order. Once we enter the border between the Blazing Sun Empire and the Blazing Scar Empire, we will start to eliminate all of Princess Mo Hen's henchmen.
However, how do you plan to deal with Princess Mo Hen?
Bring her back to the Beacon Fire Empire? "
"Oh …" Nangong Ye said secretively.
"Princess Mo Hen, there is no need to return to the Beacon Fire Empire. I have my own way of dealing with her.
His Majesty will definitely be satisfied with my method … Hahahaha … "Nangong Ye could no longer hold back and let out a wild laugh.
He was in high spirits.
Thinking that he did not need to travel to the Eastern Region, Nangong Ye felt relaxed.
Three days later!
The escort team finally crossed the Blazing Sun Empire and entered a deserted wilderness!
This was a region surrounded by barren mountains, majestic and majestic. These mountains lacked vitality, giving off a greyish-brown impression.
There were many rocks scattered in the mountains.
Occasionally, there would be a few meters long Luan flying across the sky.
"Set up camp and rest here until noon!" Nangong Ye ordered.
He looked at a few of his trusted subordinates and signaled with his eyes.
Then, Nangong Ye strode towards the center of the team, where Princess Mo Hen's carriage was.
According to the plan, Nangong Ye would take Xiao Han away and break all of his bones in the mountains. He would interrogate him to find out what he wanted, such as a body refinement technique. Then, he would kill Xiao Han. At the same time, the subordinates would lead the soldiers to slaughter all the henchmen of the princess, leaving only Princess Mo Hen alive for the time being.
"Mister Yun, Nangong Ye is coming this way …" Hu Chenghe's eyes flashed with hidden killing intent, but there was more nervousness and apprehension.
He had followed the rules all his life and had never thought of making a move against a swordsman.
Moreover, judging from his appearance, Nangong Ye's aura was getting stronger and stronger. It was possible that he had already recovered from his injuries and recovered his peak combat strength.
"Can I have a word with you?" Nangong Ye looked at Xiao Han with a smile that did not reach his eyes.
"I have some confidential matters to ask you alone."
"Oh?"
Xiao Han's eyes swept around and found that the subordinates and soldiers under Nangong Ye were holding weapons in their hands. Their eyes were bloodshot and filled with killing intent.
A large number of soldiers vaguely formed a pincer around the henchmen of the princess.
Some soldiers used greedy and evil eyes to stare at the voluptuous figures of some pretty maids, gulping down saliva.
The atmosphere was really strange.
Xiao Han could even smell the killing intent!
"What?
This Nangong Ye seems to want to slaughter the henchmen of Princess Mo Hen!
Those soldiers and subordinates are ready for battle, their eyes filled with the excitement of killing! "Xiao Han was moved.
He did not expect that Nangong Ye would be so cruel. Before reaching the Eastern Region, he wanted to start a massacre and kill the innocent henchmen of the princess.
"General Nangong, could it be that you want to start a massacre?" Xiao Han said in a clear voice.
His voice spread far and wide, echoing in the mountains.
"You are crazy, you want to kill all the henchmen of the princess!"
"Ah?
What … what does this mean?
General Nangong wants to … kill us? "
Many of the guards, craftsmen, maids, painters, and tailors were all shocked out of their wits, as they looked left and right in fear, as though they had lost their souls.
"Hahahahaha!"
Nangong Ye didn't deny or hide anything. He let out a long and evil laugh: "You people betrayed the empire and defected to the enemy. You despised the imperial family of the Beacon Fire Empire. You deserve to die ten thousand times and your nine generations will be exterminated!
Today, under the secret order of His Majesty, I will execute all of you!
Your corpses will be exposed in the wilderness! "
"Ah!!!!"
Hearing Nangong Ye's words, at least half of the henchmen of the princess fainted in fear. The other half trembled like sifting chaff, their faces ashen.
Hu Chenghe and a few True Qi realm guards roared and cursed while blocking the carriage of Princess Mo Hen, swearing to defend with their lives.
Mo Hen lifted the curtain and asked sternly.
"General Nangong, you gave a false order. What is your intention?"
However, she was born weak and kind. At this time, she was already weeping like a pear blossom. She was strong on the outside but weak on the inside. She almost fainted.
"Your Highness … Hahaha …" Nangong Ye laughed arrogantly, full of disdain and the supreme pleasure of controlling the whole situation.
"Nangong Ye, let's fight!"
Suddenly, Xiao Han's body rose up and floated in the air. His whole body was covered with icy light. Ice crystals rustled and fluttered down. A single blade was already in his hand!
The blade's aura swept across several li, swallowing mountains and rivers, destroying everything!
"Hahahaha!
Forget it, I will defeat you here, destroy your cultivation, and interrogate all your secrets! "
Nangong Ye also floated in the air.
The 35 Pentagram True Meridians in his body shone brightly. The Burning Heaven Great True Qi shone through the ages, incinerating everything!
"I don't care if you're a hidden rogue cultivator of the Jianghu or Xiao Han, I will cripple you and make you experience all kinds of pain and torture. At the same time, I will show you the difference between you and me. Once upon a time, there was a mayfly that dreamed of …" Nangong Ye continued to talk, trying to destroy Xiao Han's confidence and will to fight.
"Bullshit!" Xiao Han roared, interrupting Nangong Ye. "Demon Hero!
Today, I will kill a Demon Hero with my own hands!
There is a saying, below the group of immortals is the Demon Hero, below the Demon Hero are all living beings!
But today, I will slaughter the Demon Hero!
No matter who it is, since they want to kill me, they must pay the price!
I don't believe in fate!
My fate is decided by man, not by the heavens. If the heavens want to destroy me, I will destroy the heavens! "
Suddenly, an unparalleled domineering and violent fighting spirit burst out from Xiao Han's body!
Silence reigned all around!
Even the soldiers who were ready to start a massacre were scared. They were completely intimidated by Xiao Han's aura!
"Nangong Ye, today, I will kill you like a pig or a dog!" Xiao Han laughed coldly.
"How dare you!
This was completely presumptuous!
Die!
Go to hell! "
Nangong Ye made a grabbing motion with his right hand. A giant palm made of True Fire grabbed at Xiao Han with a sea of light!
The speed of the True Qi Giant Palm Print was extremely fast. It was way faster than a low-level True Qi cultivator's reaction speed!
"Splat!"
This time, it caught him!
Xiao Han's body was torn into pieces and burned into nothingness!
But!
This was just an afterimage and a mirror image!
In the next moment, Xiao Han's real body appeared behind Nangong Ye!
"What?
Moving like an illusion?
Beixuan Demon King's movement is like an illusion!
You are Xiao Han!
You really are Xiao Han!
How dare you expose your Demon Qi! You are asking for death! "Nangong Ye roared.
"Go to hell for your father!
Burning True Qi!
Dragon Face was furious!
The king wants his subject dead! "
Nangong Ye suddenly felt a huge wave of Qi coming at him from behind!
He turned around to look!
Xiao Han's entire body was bathed in the True Qi Fire, his aura and strength were rising!
Lawless!
Killing gods and immortals!
