Chapter 235 Departure
However, Xia Yuhui remained as steady as a rock this time, his eyes showing no fluctuation, as if the token in front of him was just an insignificant existence.
He had already witnessed the power of this token before. Back then, when his cultivation level was low, he was somewhat wary of it.
However, now that he has broken through to the late Foundation Establishment stage, this token no longer holds any deterrent power over him.
"Alright, then I'll do your master a favor. But what happened today was your fault, so I can't let you off the hook. How about this: if you can withstand one of my moves, I'll let you go." Xia Yuhui said this casually, as if it were just a trivial matter.
However, Hu Gu's face turned pale instantly. Xia Yuhui was so confident that he was well-prepared for his attack. But now that he was under someone else's roof, he had no choice but to accept it.
"Very well, Fellow Daoist Chi Lei, please do not hesitate to offer your guidance!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a chilling, icy aura of corpse energy erupted from his body. Then, like an inflating balloon, he transformed from a zombie over three zhang tall into a colossal creature five zhang tall.
Furthermore, his aura was also surging like a tidal wave, constantly increasing, even surpassing that of some Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Seeing this, Xia Yuhui's lips curled up slightly, revealing a disdainful smile. He parted his lips slightly, exhaled a breath of turbid air, and the Undying Divine Thunder Mirror appeared in his hand.
At this time, the mirror had been carefully nurtured by Xia Yuhui for more than a year, and its aura became increasingly terrifying, like a lurking giant beast. With just this aura, some first-level demon beasts would flee in terror.
Xia Yuhui quickly gathered the surrounding spiritual energy and then poured it into the Undying Divine Thunder Mirror as smoothly as flowing water. Immediately afterwards, he poured in a huge amount of magical power, and crackling sounds came from inside the Undying Divine Thunder Mirror, as if a breathtaking symphony was being played.
With a whoosh, a devastating bolt of divine lightning, like a wild horse unleashed, surged out of the mirror and, like a sharp sword, pierced straight towards Hu Gu.
Hu Gu instantly unleashed a secret technique, his figure flashing as he disappeared from the spot like a ghost. Afterward, he reappeared on a tree in the distance.
However, just as he gained a foothold in the tree, the pseudo-undying lightning appeared before him like a shadow.
boom!
The thunder, like a ferocious beast, lunged at Hugu with bared fangs and claws. Wherever it passed, the earth was torn apart, the ground shook, and it was as if the end of the world had come.
When everyone came to their senses, all that remained was a huge, bottomless pit. The roar of thunder and the crackling of lightning echoed from within the pit, as if telling the world of the tragedy that had just occurred.
Xia Yuhui, looking up from the sky, stared in surprise at Hu Gu, who was coughing up blood in the distance. He never expected that Hu Gu would so easily dodge his pseudo-undying lightning, which was enough to kill most late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.
That's right, it was cleverly avoided. Just now, when the Thunderous Edge struck Hugu like a storm, all the damage was magically transferred to a spirit corpse.
The spirit corpse, like a piece of porcelain shattered by an explosion, instantly disintegrated, while Hu Gu, like a cunning rabbit, escaped to a distant place.
Hu Guyi stared at the crater, his face filled with shock, as if he were witnessing the end of the world. He never expected that Xia Yuhui's casual attack would have such earth-shattering power.
Thinking of this, a look of heartache appeared on his face, as if he had been stabbed hard.
He had intended to use some of the Corpse Demon Sect's defensive techniques, but when the lightning bolt approached like a tiger descending a mountain, he felt a chilling sensation, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. He knew he was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, completely unable to withstand it.
So, without hesitation, he used a secret method to kill his own corpse.
This is a unique skill of the Corpse Demon Sect. To master this technique, one must have an astronomical amount of contribution points and a Golden Core cultivator as a guarantor.
Furthermore, to refine this substitute corpse, one needs to pay countless prices, and this corpse of his was bestowed upon him by his master.
Demonic cultivators are known for their cruelty and tyranny. Ordinary demonic cultivators would never show such favor to their disciples. However, he is different. His master is his father, which is why he receives such special treatment.
Now that he knew Xia Yuhui's methods were so astonishing, Hu Gu no longer harbored any illusions. At this moment, hidden in his sleeve, which was difficult for others to detect, he was slowly activating a unique talisman.
This is another of his life-saving treasures: a talisman!
Once activated, it can possess one-tenth the power of a Golden Core cultivator. However, its drawback is that it must be carefully refined by a Golden Core cultivator, and it requires a large amount of mana and time to unleash its power.
"Fellow Daoist, now that I have accepted this attack, I wonder if I can leave safely?" Hu Gu's voice trembled slightly, like a candle flickering in the wind, as he spoke.
"No need. The Corpse Demon Sect truly lives up to its reputation. The foundation of this major demonic sect is admirable. I will take my leave now and will not bother you any longer."
After saying that, Xia Yuhui waved his arm, and Xia Liangchun, who was staring in astonishment below, was drawn over like a magnet.
Xia Liangchun, whose shoulder was being grabbed, stared at Xia Yuhui in front of him, his eyes shining with admiration, like the bright stars in the night sky.
In the past, he had heard how powerful Xia Yuhui was, but he hadn't taken it to heart. Now, he finally understood why the cultivators of Jinling County were all so afraid of him.
At this moment, even he himself felt fear and could no longer be as calm and collected as before.
"You're quite good, kid. You'll be one of the ten outstanding sons of the Xia family in the future," Xia Yuhui said softly with a smile.
To motivate the clan, the Xia family leadership carefully selected four outstanding individuals and ten outstanding talents. Anyone who becomes one of these individuals will receive abundant resources from the Xia family.
The current four outstanding individuals are Xia Liangxin, Xia Liangmu, Xia Liangbai, and Xia Yuzong.
As for Xia Lianghe, he has already broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage, so his family will naturally provide him with ample resources.
Upon hearing Xia Yuhui's words, Xia Liangchun burst into tears of joy, his tears flowing like a flood, and he cried loudly on the spot.
"Alright, stop pretending."
Upon hearing Xia Yuhui say those words, he quickly regained his composure, but the joy on his face was as bright as the warm spring sun and could not be concealed. He didn't care about the saying "bitter before sweet"; he only hoped that the sweetness would continue forever.
Just as Xia Yuhui was about to turn and leave, Xia Liangchun, whom he was carrying, hurriedly and anxiously called out, "Clan leader, what about my opportunity?"
Xia Liangchun quickly pointed to the cave in the distance.
Xia Yuhui was slightly taken aback. He naturally knew about the spiritual herb in the cave, but he never expected that it belonged to Xia Liangchun. After all, this spiritual herb was worth at least 1200 spirit stones.
Seeing Xia Yuhui's puzzled expression, Xia Liangchun quickly told him what had just happened via telepathy.
After Xia Yuhui learned what had happened, he waved his arm lightly, and a bolt of lightning rolled down like a dragon, directly knocking down the cave.
