Chapter 62 Rogue Cultivator! The Most Terrifying Existence
The gray-robed monk looked up at the rugged rock walls all around him.
He raised his hand and took out a black centipede, quickly making hand seals with his fingertips to activate the secret technique.
Swish!
He forced out a drop of blood from his fingertip and precisely dripped it onto the centipede.
next moment,
The centipede just kept spinning in place in his palm, without giving any clear direction.
"Strange, I can't sense even the slightest fluctuation of magical power."
The gray-robed monk put away the centipede.
He carefully explored the area around the rock face.
Under the cover of night,
The cave area was dark and deep, with obstructed vision, making it impossible to find any trace of Chen Jie.
However, the tracking aura of Qianli San clearly stopped completely here, indicating that the other party had definitely not gone far.
That person must be hiding in the dense caves of this rock wall, not daring to show their face.
The female cultivator beside her had an icy expression and spoke in a cold voice.
Her tone appeared calm, but it actually carried a hidden threat:
"Fellow Daoist, the piece of thousand-year-old lightning-struck Yin Wood in your hand is of great importance to me."
"My brother and I, a fellow disciple and sister, have come here with no ill intentions. We only wish to make a deal with you and beg you to transfer that piece of Yin Wood to us."
"If you're willing to give it up, I'm willing to offer 15,000 low-grade spirit stones to buy it. Consider it making friends; it'll only benefit you, how about it?"
The gray-robed monk remained silent.
He silently spread his divine sense to the fullest extent, covering the entire cave area.
Simultaneously,
He listened intently to everything around him.
As soon as Chen Jie's emotions fluctuated slightly or his breath leaked out, he would catch it instantly.
The rock walls here are crisscrossed, with countless natural caves connected to each other, leading directly to dark underground caves.
The terrain is intricate and complex, making it ideal for hiding and concealing oneself.
The female cultivator kept trying to entice and appease Chen Jie, attempting to lure him out.
The gray-robed monk lay in wait, ready to launch a surprise attack at any moment.
The two of them sang in unison, their intentions extremely malicious.
but,
Despite the two men's attempts to persuade and coerce them, and their repeated calls, the cave area remained completely silent, without the slightest movement.
Chen Jie vanished into thin air, leaving no trace.
Under the cover of night,
The mountain wind howled past, and there was no other sound.
Chen Jie stood motionless in a small cave next to the two men.
His figure blended into the surrounding rocks, as if he had become a cold, solid rock.
at this time,
His face remained expressionless, his mind was clear and serene, and his heart was as still as a deep well.
He turned a deaf ear to the enticing words of the female cultivators outside the cave.
As an outer disciple of the White Bone Sect, he spent years in an environment of deceit, treachery, and the survival of the fittest.
He had long seen through the wickedness of people's hearts, so how could he easily believe the other party's hypocritical words?
If the other party is truly willing to offer 15,000 spirit stones to acquire it.
At the auction, the other party could simply raise the bid directly; why go through the trouble of intercepting them halfway?
To put it another way,
Even if the other party were genuinely willing to pay for it, Chen Jie would never transfer this piece of lightning-struck wood.
This is the core treasure he used to refine and upgrade the Soul Refining Banner, and he cannot trade it to the other party.
He has always been cautious in his actions and never easily trusts any outsiders.
Chen Jie quietly gripped the Bloodthirsty Blade in his palm.
With his other hand, he steadily held the Sunset Bow, nocked an arrow, and prepared to fire.
He held his breath tightly, not daring to let his divine sense wander even slightly, and kept a close eye on the movements of the two people outside the cave with his naked eyes.
The other party's cultivation level was far higher than his.
Once one's divine sense is revealed, it will be instantly detected, exposing one's hiding place.
The two men outside the cave were waiting for Chen Jie to lose his composure and show himself so they could immediately intercept and kill him.
Inside the cave, Chen Jie was also quietly waiting for the two to reveal a weakness in their defenses, ready to launch a fatal counterattack.
Chen Jie's gaze swept over the magical artifacts in the hands of the two, sensing their magical power.
Seeing that they were all using the most ordinary low-grade magic tools, my tense nerves relaxed a little.
One can roughly judge the identity and origin of the other party from the quality of the magical artifact and the characteristics of its magical power, and can basically rule out the possibility that the other party is a direct descendant of a major sect.
With a cultivation level of the seventh level of Qi Condensation Realm, if he were an inner disciple of a major sect...
They would certainly not still be using such ordinary low-grade magic weapons, as they have already cultivated superior techniques and are equipped with mid-grade magic artifacts for protection.
The two were not weak in cultivation, but their techniques and magical artifacts were ordinary.
This is enough to show that the background is shallow and there is no strong backing.
However, the fact that the two of them could bid 9,500 spirit stones to compete for the Yin Wood at the black market auction shows that they must be quite wealthy.
Clearly, they had been preparing for this piece of lightning-struck wood for a long time.
They have spirit stones, but no mid-grade magic artifacts!
Clearly, the magic power is insufficient to refine a mid-grade magic artifact.
Based on this, Chen Jie concluded that the two were definitely not rogue cultivators, as rogue cultivators could not be so wealthy!
They were just disciples of a small, wealthy sect in the surrounding area.
To be honest, Chen Jie wasn't too wary of these disciples from small sects.
What he feared most were the rootless, bloodthirsty rogue cultivators.
At the same cultivation level, the terror level of rogue cultivators far exceeds that of sect disciples by several times.
Every rogue cultivator who can cultivate to the late stage of Qi Condensation Realm.
They all fought their way out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and survived countless life-and-death selections.
Their cultivation level may not be top-tier!
But when it comes to killing and taking lives, it involves ruthless and vicious fighting techniques.
Even if two disciples from different sects joined forces, they would probably be no match for a rogue cultivator of the same level.
It was recorded in the autobiography of the evil cultivator patriarch Long Xiaotian that in the chaotic cultivation world, rogue cultivators were the most terrifying existence!
When encountering a high-level rogue cultivator, one must be extremely vigilant and never be careless.
Those who practice martial arts are cautious and ruthless. They don't act unless they are absolutely certain of victory.
They will never engage in pointless disputes or fight battles they cannot win.
The reason why the outer disciples of the White Bone Sect are all so difficult to deal with is that the sect adopts a free-range training method for its cultivators.
Those who can fight their way through to break through the seventh level of the Qi Condensation Realm and join the inner sect.
They were all ruthless characters who had been forged in brutal battles.
As long as the opponent is not a rogue cultivator, Chen Jie is fully confident that he can fight back and kill them.
If the two people in front of you are rogue cultivators.
Chen Jie hid in the cave, daring not to show himself or make a move.
It's not hard to tell from their outward auras that although their cultivation levels are more solid and profound than Hou San's.
However, in terms of ruthlessness and decisiveness, he is far inferior to Hou.
The two dared to recklessly pursue him all the way only because they were bullying those with weaker cultivation levels, relying on their seventh-level Qi Condensation cultivation.
Once the mind is made up,
Chen Jie completely suppressed all killing intent around him, like a venomous snake lurking in the depths of darkness, concealing all its sharpness.
He waited quietly for the enemy to approach, seizing the opportunity to strike, waiting for the perfect moment to kill.
Waaah—!
The mountain wind howled across the rock face, bringing with it a chill.
The gray-robed monk listened intently for a long time, but still couldn't hear the slightest sound from inside the cave.
He couldn't help but feel impatient and turned to complain to the female cultivator in a low voice.
"Senior sister, could that bastard have already run away quietly? How come there's not a sound?"
He was anxious, for he could only sense the target's presence when the Thousand Mile Scattering Technique was activated.
The other party remained hidden and motionless, making it impossible for him to detect them.
He searched several caves in succession, but still could not find Chen Jie.
But just as the two subconsciously approached one of the small caves, their defenses showed a slight flaw.
Chen Jie made a move!
He was the first to activate the Sunset Bow, channeling his magic power into the arrow. The bowstring was instantly drawn taut, and he aimed at the female cultivator clad in leather armor and fired the arrow.
At the same instant he fired the arrow, he simultaneously drew his Bloodthirsty Blade.
hum!
The Bloodthirsty Blade's spiritual light surged, bursting forth with dazzling crimson light, and the blade instantly grew to be more than a person's height.
Clang—!
The blood-red blade, carrying a fierce and powerful aura, slashed down furiously towards the gray-robed cultivator.
A feint to the east while attacking in the west!
The bow and arrows held off the powerful enemy, while the longsword attacked the gray-robed cultivator. The two moves were used simultaneously without any hesitation!
He used arrows to attract the female cultivator's attention, then unleashed his strongest killing move with the Bloodthirsty Mad Blade, instantly killing the nearby gray-robed cultivator.
Under the cover of night,
He unleashed his full magical power, a domineering and sharp cold light piercing the darkness, radiating murderous intent.
At the same time as the attack,
Chen Jie patted his storage bag, and the red phosphorus soft armor instantly protected his body.
He conjured a solid protective shield in front of him, making thorough preparations for both offense and defense.
As early as the moment Chen Jie activated his magic power and set off the Sunset Bow.
The gray-robed cultivator had already sensed something, but instead of being afraid, he was overjoyed.
The other side couldn't hold back any longer and finally showed themselves!
"Hmph! Hide it then! Why don't you keep hiding?"
"I knew you were hiding nearby! Let's see where you run now!"
The gray-robed cultivator snorted coldly, gripping his longsword tightly as he prepared to meet the attack.
But the next moment,
He felt the terrifying power of the Bloodthirsty Blade approaching, and his expression changed drastically.
Next,
His eyes widened in horror as he exclaimed in disbelief, "A bloodthirsty artifact?!"
