"Don't even think about running!"
Li Yuanba shouted excitedly, swiftly throwing out the Golden Peng Divine Hammer with his right hand. The speed of the divine hammer was unbelievably fast, exceeding the weight of ten thousand kilograms as it was thrown out at high speed, its momentum no less than that of a high-speed train.
Ye Xuan's face changed, hastily dodging and narrowly avoiding Li Yuanba's thrown hammer.
Boom!
The Golden Peng Divine Hammer directly smashed the small mountain on the opposite side of the river, its power so formidable that it stirred up a tremendous wind, causing the surrounding trees to sway wildly and the river water to surge. Zong Yan and Murong Xuan, both seriously injured, could only cower on the ground, unable to move.
Cold sweat dripped from Ye Xuan's forehead. It was the first time he had felt the power of Li Yuanba at such close range.
"What kind of person are you? With such strength, you definitely possess the bloodline of ancient times within you!" Ye Xuan asked Li Yuanba in a deep voice, at this moment, he was possessed by a demon, so he could sense the difference in Li Yuanba.
Ignoring this, Li Yuanba charged at Ye Xuan once again.
Unable to help himself, Qin Jun asked Xiong Tianquan through a transmission, "What's wrong with him? His aura is abnormally strong."
The aura surrounding Ye Xuan, shrouded in demonic energy, gave Qin Jun a feeling of invincibility, which shocked him. Could it be that this guy could also transform?
Damn it!
Is he a Saiyan?
"He harbors a demonic soul, it should be the soul of a demonic cultivator or a member of the demon race hidden within him. At this moment, the demonic soul is controlling his body," Xiong Tianquan explained through a transmission.
Demonic soul?
Qin Jun was even more puzzled and continued to ask, "What's the difference between a demonic cultivator and the demon race?"
"The human cultivators are divided into the righteous and demonic paths, and the demons appeared early in the birth of the human race. Some human cultivators, after witnessing the strength and brutality of the demon race, followed suit and deviated from the right path. The cultivation progress of demonic cultivators is faster than that of righteous cultivators, but they are easily lost in their minds and become monsters who only know slaughter."
Qin Jun suddenly realized that this was how demonic cultivators came about, slightly different from the internet fantasy novels he had read in his previous life.
At the same time, Ye Xuan and Li Yuanba were fiercely engaged in battle.
Li Yuanba's attacks were fierce, and Ye Xuan dared not confront them head-on, only able to continuously evade. The speed of the two was so fast that it was impossible for anyone to see clearly. The most crucial aspect was the aura of the two, stirring up rolling thunderclouds and raging winds, leaving Qin Jun dumbfounded.
Just being possessed by a demonic soul could cause a leap in combat power, it was truly terrifying!
Damn, if this kid had released the demonic soul earlier, wouldn't he have been crushed with a flick of the hand?
However, he soon noticed that Ye Xuan's body was constantly bleeding, but it was difficult to see clearly due to the accompaniment of the demonic energy.
"This child will probably be gradually consumed by the demonic soul in the future, falling into the demonic path," Xiong Tianquan sighed, which also explained why Ye Xuan was able to possess the Wolf King's demon core.
Qin Jun's eyes were truly opened wide, being possessed by a demonic soul, he really fit the protagonist template!
Unfortunately, Qin Jun had a more abnormal trump card than the demonic soul, and Ye Xuan was destined not to become the protagonist.
"Damn it! I'm furious!"
Li Yuanba roared in frustration, then his pupils suddenly narrowed, his terrifying aura suddenly skyrocketed, startling Ye Xuan, who quickly tore open a black rift in the air and swiftly disappeared into it.
"Trying to run?"
An enraged Li Yuanba was about to awaken his true form as the Golden Winged Peng Bird to annihilate Ye Xuan, but Qin Jun hurriedly called out to him through a transmission, "Yuanba! Don't expose yourself! Stay calm!"
Although he really wanted to see the majesty of the Golden Winged Peng Bird, it was easy to be discovered within the treasure world, and if discovered, the Sword God Sect would definitely suspect him again, and his plan to participate in the Dragon Subduing Martial Arts Tournament would be ruined.
Upon hearing this, Li Yuanba had to suppress his anger, his eyes returning to normal as he returned to Qin Jun's side.
...
Dusk arrived at the branch mansion of the Sword God Sect.
Fei Yushu, dressed in a gray robe, sat in the courtyard drinking tea. Since he no longer suspected Qin Jun, he rarely checked everything inside the treasure world, as he had seen it countless times and knew that too much ugliness would occur inside.
"I wonder how many contestants those two little guys have eliminated."
Just then, his expression suddenly changed, and he quickly opened his right hand, a blood-red oil lamp appearing in his hand. He was about to take action when a black shadow flew out of the lamp, growing larger and larger.
It was none other than Ye Xuan.
With a click, Ye Xuan returned to his normal size and landed next to Fei Yushu, his sinister demonic aura causing Fei Yushu's face to darken.
"Demonic cultivator!"
Fei Yushu said in a deep voice, instantly associating the previous massacre at the branch mansion of the Sword God Sect with the figure before him. Could it be the work of this demonic cultivator?
If Qin Jun knew what was going through his mind, he would definitely burst out laughing.
Damn it!
Is he trying to shift the blame?
"Hmph!"
Almost transformed into a blood man, Ye Xuan glanced at Fei Yushu and then disappeared into thin air, so fast that Fei Yushu was caught off guard.
"The power of space, at least a demonic overlord at the level of a Heavenly Immortal or above!"
Fei Yushu broke out in a cold sweat, but he also realized that the other party was only in a state of demonic soul, and his body was too weak. Otherwise, he would have been dead by now.
"No, this news must be reported!"
Fei Yushu gritted his teeth, but as for capturing Ye Xuan, he couldn't even sense Ye Xuan's demonic aura, so how could he catch him?
...
Inside the treasure world.
By the small river, Qin Jun took hold of Zhu Yanqing's hand, reproaching her with concern, "See, I told you to stay with me, but you didn't listen and said you could rely on yourself. You almost lost your life!"
Zhu Yanqing's face was somewhat unnatural, subconsciously wanting to pull her hand away, but unfortunately, Qin Jun held on tightly, using the excuse of educating her to take advantage of her.
"I don't care, from now on, you'll be with me!" Qin Jun chuckled, and although Zhu Yanqing wanted to refuse, a hint of sweetness grew in her heart.
Then he glanced around at the bodies scattered on the ground and said, "Let's go, this place is not clean!"
"What about them?" Zhu Yanqing looked at Zong Yan and Murong Xuan, who were lying on the ground, and asked.
Qin Jun shrugged and said, "Either crush the wooden plaques or wait for death!"
He was not compassionate enough to take care of the two injured patients.
Zhu Yanqing did not continue to plead, as she thought that Murong Xuan and Zong Yan's strength alone would make it difficult for them to pass the city trial. She also disliked weak people who needed help.
And so, the group prepared to leave.
"Save... me..."
Mo Yu, who had been cut in half, trembled as he begged Qin Jun. At this moment, he was in so much pain that he was numb.
Qin Jun gave him a bright smile, then took out the Desert Eagle and put an end to his life with a bang.
Scum!
Daring to touch my woman and still seeking help!
"Let's go!"
Qin Jun put away the Desert Eagle and said with a smile. Zong Yan and Murong Xuan, lying on the ground, hesitated to speak, but in the end, they did not lose their dignity to beg Qin Jun.
After they left, the two of them struggled to take out the wooden plaques.
"In the coming decades, let's continue to practice diligently," Murong Xuan said with a bitter smile. Zong Yan remained silent, but in his heart, he agreed with his proposal.
After experiencing today's events, they finally realized their own weakness. Perhaps they could thrive in the Kingdom of Wuqi, but within the Southern Zhuo Dynasty, they were as weak as ants.
