Chapter 211: No Loss

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

The Skeleton Centipede’s counterattack against Zuo Yongjun was extremely fierce and brutal.

Its series of moves were very effective, forcing Zuo Yongjun into a corner, leaving him no choice but to resort to a mutually destructive tactic.

But even if Zuo Yongjun staked his life, trying to perish together with this Evil Wraith was extremely difficult.

Zuo Yongjun was well aware of this, but he had no other choice!

This Innate Martial Artist could never have dreamed that at the critical moment, a Divine Weapon would come from the heavens to rescue him from peril.

His sword thrust missed, and his entire being was enveloped by an invisible force, involuntarily flying backwards.

At the same time, he heard a familiar voice, “Leave the rest to me.”

Immortal Master Wang!

Zuo Yongjun’s tense nerves suddenly relaxed. He suppressed the boiling Qi-Blood within his body, allowing the external force to carry him, instantly piercing through layers of mist.

Then he landed on the outskirts of the deserted village!

“My lord!”

Wu Song and the Imperial Guards, who had been waiting outside, immediately surrounded him, all with expressions of joy.

They had retreated from Wu Family Village due to Zuo Yongjun’s strict orders, but couldn’t bear to leave the Head of the Hundred Households fighting alone in such a dangerous place.

So, these Imperial Guards waited outside, hoping to provide assistance when Zuo Yongjun broke through.

Now seeing him safely escape danger, everyone was extremely excited.

Wu Song eagerly asked, “My lord, are you alright?”

“I’m fine.”

Zuo Yongjun shook his head, his expression quite strange, “The Immortal Master has arrived.”

While he was relieved to have escaped a disaster, his mind was filled with confusion.

How did Wang Chen know he was in trouble?

Wu Family Village was almost three hundred miles away from Nan Shao City, and those who knew of the situation, such as Wu Song and the others, were all outside. Could it be that the Immortal Master had the ability to see the future?

Otherwise, there was no explanation!

Wu Song scratched his head, “I used a Reinforcement-Requesting Talisman just now.”

Zuo Yongjun realized!

Certainly, it was because Wang Chen saw Wu Song’s call for help that he was able to arrive in time.

The methods of Cultivators are unpredictable; Mortals truly cannot fathom them!

In fact, he overestimated Wang Chen’s abilities.

If Wang Chen had been in the Guarding Heavenly Master’s mansion, Wu Song’s Reinforcement-Requesting Talisman would have been in vain.

Earlier, he was cultivating the Five Suns Qian Thunder atop Falling Thunder Peak, which was why he could see the signal flame two hundred miles away.

Realizing that the people from the Exorcism Hall were in danger, Wang Chen immediately launched the Willow Leaf Flying Boat, driving it at full speed without sparing any Mana, thus managing to save Zuo Yongjun at the most critical moment.

For this, Wang Chen consumed a lot of the Spiritual Power stored in the Heaven-Ensnaring Punisher Net.

Otherwise, in this Spiritless Land, his own Mana would not have been sufficient to support high-speed flight over long distances.

As the sword pierced through the Skeleton Centipede, Wang Chen retracted the Willow Leaf Flying Boat and landed on the ground.

Crack!

The centipede is a creature that does not stiffen even after death; the Skeleton Centipede’s vitality was exceptionally tenacious. Although it was struck in the vital part, it desperately struggled free from the Fire Crow Sword that had pinned its head.

Despite losing half of its head, which disintegrated, the Evil Wraith managed to escape.

Realizing Wang Chen’s strength, it did not even consider fighting back, instead coiling up and quickly retreating.

Attempting to flee into the mist!

But how could Wang Chen simply watch as such a huge mass of “Spiritual Energy” slipped away before his eyes?

He threw out ten Evil-Repelling Talismans!

Clusters of Spiritual Light, like purely Yang-powered cannonballs, bombarded the head and body of the Skeleton Centipede.

The force of the impact caused the Evil Wraith’s flesh to scatter and bones to splinter, rolling on the ground howling in agony!

But this was just the beginning.

Under Wang Chen’s control, the Fire Crow Sword soared into the sky to chase down the Skeleton Centipede. Like a nimble dragon, it spiraled around the Evil Wraith, severing its claws one by one.

In the blink of an eye, the Skeleton Centipede was left with a third fewer legs.

Escape had become a luxury!

The evil wraith couldn’t even think about counterattacking.

Under Wang Chen’s assault, it had all its claws sliced off, followed by its tail, turning into a bare “long worm” that lay motionless on the ground.

Wang Chen’s Sword Control Technique at the Great Perfection Realm displayed its rightful might at this moment!

Wang Chen didn’t even give it a chance to catch its breath, throwing the Demon-Slaying Net to envelop it.

As soon as the Demon-Slaying Net fell, the skeleton centipede’s body immediately emitted a large amount of white smoke. It twisted and struggled violently, continuously spraying venom from what was left of its mouth in an attempt to break free.

However, the more fiercely the skeleton centipede struggled, the stronger the constricting force of the Demon-Slaying Net became.

The evil power within it surged ceaselessly, getting completely absorbed.

The Heaven-Ensnaring Punisher Net was just that domineering!

The body of the skeleton centipede rapidly shrank, clearly on the verge of death.

Wang Chen immediately retracted the Demon-Slaying Net, and the fire crow sword hanging in the air plummeted down, with surging flames and sword qi engulfing this evil wraith in an instant.

[Human Virtue +68]

That’s it?

Seeing the message prompt in his field of vision, Wang Chen was somewhat disappointed.

This evil wraith was far inferior to Granny Tree, and the Human Virtue points gained were barely enough to fill a gap in his teeth.

Considering the cost of using the Willow Leaf Flying Boat, he felt a bit shortchanged.

Not making a big profit definitely meant a loss.

Wait a minute!

Wang Chen reached out and took back the Demon-Slaying Net.

Wrapped within the net was a pearl glowing with a silvery-white light.

A Yin Qi Pearl!

Aha!

Wang Chen couldn’t help but be joyful—now that was not a loss!

This was the first evil wraith he had slain since arriving in the Mortal Realm, and unexpectedly, it dropped a valuable Yin Qi Pearl.

His luck was indeed great.

A question suddenly occurred to Wang Chen.

Superior Cao Chengping, the Chief Defender of Cloud Sun, had ordered them, the new Guarding Heavenly Masters, to scour the land for spiritual treasures to offer up.

Could this Yin Qi Pearl be one of those spiritual treasures?

He didn’t dwell on this thought for the moment; after pocketing the Yin Qi Pearl, he began to wipe out the fleeing evil wraiths around him.

Mosquitoes, though tiny, are still meat. Wang Chen needed to consume a great deal of spiritual power to break through to the ninth level of Qi Cultivation, and the little savings of Spirit Stones in his Storage Bag were far from sufficient; he had no choice but to target the evil wraiths.

With the boss already defeated, the rest of the minions were simply not worth mentioning.

Wang Chen no longer calculated the Human Virtue points, throwing out nets to drain any evil wraiths he saw.

In his pursuit, the number of evil wraiths in the deserted village dwindled, the fog rapidly dissipated, and the sinister aura was completely gone.

After making a round through the village and ensuring there were no more evil wraiths, Wang Chen finally met back up with Zuo Yongjun and the others.

Zuo Yongjun bowed deeply: “For the Immortal Master’s life-saving grace, this subordinate has nothing with which to repay!”

Wu Song and the Imperial Guards followed suit with grand salutations.

Wang Chen shook his head, scolding them severely, especially Zuo Yongjun.

Blind courage is not commendable. Upon encountering an evil wraith, one must first ensure one’s own safety. If you cannot defeat it, run. Why insist on confronting it head-on?

The Essence Blood Talismans Wang Chen gave to the Exorcism Hall were for their protection.

As for the task of eliminating evil wraiths, naturally, it was for him, the Guarding Heavenly Master, to accomplish!

Zuo Yongjun and the others couldn’t lift their heads after being scolded.

Yet, they also felt that serving under such a Guarding Heavenly Master was truly a great fortune!
