Those few words made Duanmu Yun's heart tremble violently, and an inexplicable fear flashed in his eyes.
"Kid, consider yourself ruthless. I admit that I can't kill you, but don't be anxious. Sooner or later, someone will kill you for me. We'll meet again!" Suddenly, he fiercely turned around and swiftly fled in the opposite direction of Qin Shi.
Qin Shi stared at him and said, "Want to run?
It's not that easy! "
Suddenly, he raised his hand and grabbed at Duanmu Yun in the air.
"I admit that I can't kill you, but you can't stop me if I want to run away!"
Duanmu Yun seemed to have expected this. Before the void fluctuated because of Qin Shi's grab, he moved his body and dodged nimbly. Then he stomped his foot hard, and the valley trembled. A huge mountain suddenly rose from the ground and blocked Qin Shi's way.
Qin Shi's eyes darkened. "This damn Formation again?"
But immediately, he formed a seal with his palm. With his mastery of Formations, ordinary Formations could not resist him at all, let alone the Road Formation of Mountain Gazing Peak, which he had already understood the essence of. As soon as the seal appeared, five Thunder Dragons pierced through the mountain as if they were tearing the sky apart.
But when the mountain shattered, he had already lost sight of Duanmu Yun. This made him clench his fists fiercely, and he was furious. "Damn it!"
"Did he run away?"
Below, when Lin Yu and the others saw this, their hearts sank. Logically speaking, now that Duanmu Hong had died and Duanmu Yun had fled, the assassination plan should have been successfully completed. However, they could not feel the slightest joy of victory from them.
Su Ming clenched his fists fiercely. "Duanmu Yun is cunning. We can't let him run away. Otherwise, he will definitely rush to the Holy Wind to seek shelter. At that time, he will be discovered by the Holy Wind, and Jin Yan and Old Master Qin will be in danger."
"Okay."
The others nodded. Lin Yu leaped into the sky, and asked Qin Shi, "Shi Tou, what should we do next?"
Qin Shi's eyes were somber. After a moment of silence, he said, "Xiao Yu, you stay here with your men and take over the Mountain Gaze. There can't be no one here. I'll go after him!"
Then, without waiting for Lin Yu to speak, he leaned forward and a pair of thunder wings shot out from his back. He thought to himself anxiously, "No matter what, I can't let him reach Sacred Wind. I promised Luo Sha and I can't break my promise. I can't disappoint her …!"
"Don't chase after him."
However, an indifferent voice suddenly resounded, and then, with a swish, a broken figure suddenly descended from the sky.
Boom!
The figure was like a cannonball, fiercely piercing through the deep valley.
"Hmm?"
The sudden abnormality shocked many people, but when they looked down at the valley and saw the figure clearly, they were all stunned. They said in disbelief, "Duanmu Yun?"
Qin Shi also frowned. Wasn't that figure Duanmu Yun, who had just escaped?
However, at this moment, he had long lost his aura. There was a sword wound on his chest that was so deep that bones could be seen, which was shocking to see.
"This sword wound, is it him?"
When Qin Shi thought of this, he suddenly raised his head. Haoyue was a hundred meters in front of him, and the ten-meter-long giant sword was on his shoulder. He slowly walked to Qin Shi.
Then, he waved his hand and threw a withered yellow scroll to Qin Shi. "Previously, you were looking for this half of the Boiling Flames Double Kill Technique, right?
I'll give it to you too. "
After receiving the scroll, Qin Shi lowered his head and looked at it. Wasn't this the other half of the Boiling Flames Double Kill Technique?
He asked in confusion, "Didn't you say that Duanmu Hong was kind to you? What do you mean by this?"
"Nothing. Duanmu Hong saved my life, but it has nothing to do with Duanmu Yun. Now that Duanmu Hong is dead, and you are a disciple of the Sword Faction, I naturally have to help you."
"A disciple of the Sword Faction?"
Qin Shidu muttered, and then he suddenly started laughing. "Looks like my earlier guess is probably correct. In the entire Mortal Dimension, there's probably only the Sword Sect that's capable of swinging an enormous sword that's 10 meters long and has grasped the extreme Sword Dao of the heavens and the earth. You're a disciple of the Sword Sect as well, right?"
When they heard this, Su Ming and the others were puzzled. They looked at each other, but when Lin Yu heard the words Sword Faction, his clear eyes were filled with waves, as if a storm had been stirred up in them. "Stone, did he join the Sword Faction?"
"Young Yu, what kind of faction is this Sword Faction?" Su Ming and the others asked.
Lin Yu remained silent for a while before he controlled his emotions and said, "Do you still remember when I talked to Stone, I mentioned a faction called the Eight Regions?"
When they heard this, they nodded. "I remember. You mentioned the Eight Great Giants?" Once he finished speaking, Su Ming suddenly understood. "Could it be that the Sword Faction is one of the Eight Regions?"
Lin Yu nodded his head. "Yes. Furthermore, he has quite a high ranking in the eight regions."
"It's true?"
When they realized this, they were completely confused. They looked up with fear and looked at Haoyue. "So, this person is from the Eight Regions?
Phew, that was close. "
"It was indeed close."
Lin Yu smiled helplessly. "Fortunately, he is a disciple of the Sword Faction. If he was from the other Eight Regions, I'm afraid we would have been buried here today, not to mention defeating Wang Shan."
"Are you exaggerating?"
"The power of the Eight Regions is beyond our imagination. One Hundred Tides is already a giant to us. There are countless Almighties who make us tremble in fear living in it. But among the Eight Regions, one Hundred Tides is just a dispensable existence under their jurisdiction. Any disciple they send out can easily destroy thousands of empires in one Hundred Tides. From what we know, even the strongest person in one Hundred Tides, the Emperor of Holy Wind, who is at the peak of the Nine Heavens, can barely enter the Eight Regions. The others don't even have the right to enter the Eight Regions."
"Hiss …!" Hearing this, countless people sucked in a cold breath. What kind of ridiculous difference was this?
But when they thought of this, they looked at Qin Shi again. Su Ming clenched his fists. "So, Qin Shi has been with those geniuses for the past year?"
"The Eight Regions are too strong. Even Qin Shi is just a nobody in the Eight Regions."
Lin Yu let out a long sigh. But before he finished speaking, he was immediately refuted by Yin Mo. "That's not necessarily true. Maybe he can't shock the Eight Regions now, but a few years ago, who could have imagined that he would be in charge of the north, break through the Crimson Flame, and even fly freely in the current Hundred Tides?
That's why I think that one day, he will also stand at the peak of the Eight Regions. It's been so many years, don't you understand him? "
Lin Yu was stunned for a moment. He couldn't help but remember five years ago, when he was only in the Spirit Tempering Realm, and he had broken through in the midst of a pack of hungry wolves. At that time, who could have imagined that in just a short five years, he would break through step by step and reach such a shocking level?
He smiled. "Indeed, there are too many unbelievable things about him. Perhaps it's just as you said. Perhaps one day, even the Eight Regions won't be able to stop him.
"And I believe that day won't be too far away."
They looked at each other, then focused their gazes on Qin Shi's black robe again. It was as if the night sky had become bright, the clouds had dispersed, and there was no longer any fear.
Up in the sky, Qin Shi didn't know what the people below were thinking. His attention was completely focused on Haoyue. Haoyue looked at him for a long time, and her eyes suddenly dimmed. She smiled bitterly and said, "A disciple of the Sword Faction?
That's right, me too, but that was a long time ago. Now, I'm just a wild man in the forest. "
After saying that, Haoyue took the huge sword from her back and gave it to Qin Shi. "This sword is the Sword Faction's 18 Guardian Swords, the Emotion Severing Sword, ranked 17th. It has been in my hands for a long time, and now it's time to return it to its rightful owner. I'll give it to you now, and when you return to the Sword Faction, return it to the Sword Faction."
"18 Guardian Swords?"
Qin Shi snorted in surprise. He had heard of this name long ago in the Hundred Races, and there were also rumors in the Mortal World that the Sword Faction's 18 Guardian Swords were the strongest 18 swords in the world. He thought to himself, "No wonder the Water Severing Association can't compare to them."
But after hesitating for a moment, Qin Shi didn't accept it. "You should return this kind of thing yourself. Although I don't know what happened between you and the Sword Faction, I won't be returning to the Sword Faction within this year. Secondly, with your cultivation, I think you should understand that my enemy is the Sacred Wind, the overlord of the Hundred Tides. I'm going there to save my daughter. This time, whether or not I can succeed is still unknown, and whether or not I'll be able to return to the Sword Faction alive is still unknown."
Haoyue smiled. "The Sacred Wind is indeed extraordinary, but with your strength, they can't hurt you. You know what I mean."
After saying this, Haoyue pointed at Qin Shi's Space Ring. "The puppet sleeping there should be at the Heaven Fruit Realm, right?
In the Hundred Tides, I'm afraid even I'm not its match. Just it alone is enough for you to dominate the Hundred Tides. "
This stunned Qin Shi, and his expression became much more serious. He thought to himself, "It can actually penetrate my Telekinesis and directly probe into my Space Ring?"
But immediately, Qin Shi calmed down. After all, Haoyue was very powerful, so it was reasonable for her to do this. He shook his head and said, "Indeed, if it's just the Hundred Tides, then I'm naturally confident. But things aren't as simple as you think. You should have heard what Duanmu Yun said just now. In the Sacred Wind, there's a huge force, and that's my real enemy. And that force, even the Eight Regions don't dare to provoke easily."
"Huh?" Haoyue frowned. "A force that even the Eight Regions don't dare to provoke easily?
What force? "
"The Dark Group." Qin Shi shrugged helplessly.
