Zhang Mang held a big bow in his hand, and there were a few arrows on his back. When he saw Ye Xingchen running towards him, his face revealed a trace of disdain.
He took an arrow from his back, nocked it on the big bow, and pulled it into a full moon shape.
Swish!
The arrow flew out, turning into a meteor as it rapidly shot towards Ye Xingchen.
Ye Xingchen opened his Eye of Fate, and with his keen eyesight, the arrow slowed down in his eyes.
When it was about to reach him, Ye Xingchen grabbed it and threw it back.
Boom!
The arrow flew back, and Zhang Mang was shocked. He hurriedly circulated his True Qi to defend himself, but he was still dizzy from the power of the spiritual patterns on the arrow.
"Who are you?
How dare you sneak attack me? "Ye Xingchen was very fast, and in a few breaths, he was only ten meters away from Zhang Mang.
Zhang Mang sneered, "Be careful, you are not weak. You can actually detect my arrow, and you can even catch it. But, you shouldn't have come."
"You think I only rely on the power of the bow and arrow?
You are wrong! "
Zhang Mang suddenly took a step forward, and his body rushed forward. He mobilized the True Qi in his body, and a stream of True Qi burst out like a python, trying to swallow Ye Xingchen.
Zhang Mang had the Ninth-Grade Human Class python bloodline, and he cultivated the python True Qi, which was poisonous.
His cultivation was at the Houtian Ninth Stage, and if he suddenly attacked, even a Xiantian First Stage martial artist would be injured.
"Kid, don't blame me. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself. Who asked you to find a second tier spirit herb?"
Zhang Mang thought, "Only if I get this second tier spirit herb, whether I sell it or consume it myself, will I be able to increase my cultivation, and have a higher chance of entering the Martial Hall."
Zhang Mang's python True Qi was very powerful and real, like a real python, flicking its forked tongue in and out, revealing a sinister and vicious aura.
The two were originally thirty meters apart, and Zhang Mang covered this distance in the blink of an eye.
Just as his True Qi was about to hit Ye Xingchen, a complacent smile appeared on his face.
"Ant!" Ye Xingchen didn't even bother to look at Zhang Mang. He swung his sword with his right hand and sent out a beam of Sword Qi, shattering Zhang Mang's python Zhen Qi.
"What?" Zhang Mang was shocked. He stopped in his tracks and quickly retreated.
"Brat, you actually have a Tier 2 True Weapon!" Zhang Mang's eyes flashed with greed.
If he were to obtain this weapon, not only would he be able to enter the top three in the Clans Tournament, but he would also be able to pass the Martial Arts Hall's examination with ease.
In his heart, he decided that no matter what, he had to obtain this Tier 2 weapon and the Mysterious Yin Flower.
"Brat, hand over the Tier 2 True Weapon in your hands, and I can spare you this once," Zhang Mang said.
Ye Xingchen laughed and said, "I think you don't understand the situation. Are you a match for me?"
As Ye Xingchen spoke, he glanced at Zhang Mang.
Luck value: 527
It was impossible for him to reject the luck points that were delivered to his doorstep.
Moreover, a human's luck value was much higher than that of a beast's.
Ye Xingchen wasn't a softhearted person who wouldn't kill decisively.
He waved the sword in his hand and was ready to end Zhang Mang's life.
"Wait!" Zhang Mang shouted. He sensed a dangerous aura coming towards him and said, "Don't worry.
"Brat, think carefully before you make your move. I am a member of the Zhang Family of Taihu City. If you offend me, you and your family will be in danger of being destroyed."
"As long as you hand over the Tier 2 True Weapon, I can take you in as my subordinate and bring you to the Martial Arts Hall to cultivate." Zhang Mang said confidently.
He believed that this person would make the right choice. Their Zhang Family was one of the strongest families in Taihu City. Their influence wasn't any weaker than the Prefectural Governor. He didn't believe that Zhang Mang wouldn't be afraid.
"Taihu City's Zhang Family?" Ye Xingchen asked.
"Not bad. Brat, now you know fear!" Zhang Mang said proudly.
He decided that as soon as this person handed over the Tier 2 True Weapon, he would immediately kill him.
"Hehe!"
Ye Xingchen recalled the pain he felt when Zhang Tianyang took away his Li Fire Bloodline. He sneered and said, "Zhang Family. Good, very good. I didn't find trouble with you first, but you came to find trouble with me first."
"If that's the case, I will collect the interest first." Ye Xingchen circulated the True Qi in his body and slashed.
He seemed to be smiling when he got the system, but his hatred was hidden in the depths of his heart, waiting to explode at the last moment.
Zhang Mang was still in the midst of his complacency and didn't expect that Ye Xingchen would dare to attack him.
Zhang Mang's head flew off. The smug smile on his face froze. Blood spurted out and dyed the ground red.
After killing Zhang Mang, Ye Xingchen felt much more relaxed.
"Zhang Tianyang, I will let you know what despair is!" Ye Xingchen said softly.
After killing Zhang Mang, he obtained 527 Luck Points, bringing his total to 20,927.
More than 20,000 Luck Points was enough for Ye Xingchen to exchange for two Spirit Pills. In addition to the Dark Yin Flower, he could cultivate Extreme Yin True Qi.
Ye Xingchen sent out a stream of Great Sun True Qi to incinerate Zhang Mang's corpse. Then, he picked up the bow and arrows that fell on the ground.
Ye Xingchen pulled the bow. It required at least 500 kilograms of strength to pull it open.
Although this bow was not a Tier 1 True Weapon, there were Spirit Marks carved on it. Once activated, the bow's strength and power would increase.
Ye Xingchen went back to pluck the Dark Yin Flower from behind the tree and placed it in a jade box. Ye Xingchen immediately left this place.
He returned to the cave where he treated Lin Yanyu and prepared to go into seclusion.
Ye Xingchen first used 20,000 Luck Points to exchange for two Dark Yin Pills.
The Dark Yin Pill was a Tier 2 Spirit Pill. It was suitable for Innate Experts with Extreme Yin Bodies or Ice Attribute Innate Experts to consume and refine.
The Dark Yin Flower had a total of seven petals. Each petal was as black as ink and emitted wisps of cold Qi.
Ye Xingchen placed the Dark Yin Flower on the ground. Immediately, a thin layer of ice appeared on the ground.
He plucked one of the Dark Yin Flower's petals and consumed it.
Immediately, the blood in his body froze. It was extremely cold.
Ye Xingchen quickly used the Heavenly Emperor's Fortune Art to refine it.
Wisps of Dark Yin Spiritual Qi gathered in Ye Xingchen's dantian and formed a small white dot. As the Dark Yin Flower's Spiritual Qi was refined, the white dot grew bigger and bigger. It formed a whirlpool and stirred up the dantian.
On the other side of the dantian, there was a small sun. It was the condensation of Ye Xingchen's Great Sun True Qi.
As the Dark Yin Spiritual Qi entered the dantian, the white dot grew bigger. It absorbed the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, causing the Great Sun True Qi in Ye Xingchen's body to fluctuate.
"Oh no!" Ye Xingchen felt that something was wrong. He did not expect the Extreme Yin True Qi to be so difficult to refine.
The Yin and Yang in the dantian were out of balance. If he made a mistake, the dantian would be destroyed. If he made a mistake, his dantian would be destroyed.
Ye Xingchen mobilized the Star Bloodline in his body to calm the True Qi in his dantian.
A Star appeared at the top of the dantian, emitting an invisible aura. This Star was Ye Xingchen's Star Bloodline.
As the Star Bloodline power spread out, the dantian gradually stabilized.
"It seems that I need to increase the quality of the Extreme Yin True Qi to the Houtian Ninth Stage." Ye Xingchen thought.
The Great Sun True Qi in his body had already reached the Houtian Ninth Stage. The Extreme Yin True Qi was only at the Houtian First Stage.
