C173 Six-winged Centipede
He swallowed a mouthful of saliva with great difficulty. His hand that was forming a seal trembled slightly as he put it down and slowly floated towards Yang Xuan.
Elder Lee was also shocked. It was also his first time seeing such a grade of spiritual herb. He was stunned for a moment.
A trace of a cold smile emerged on Yang Xuan's face. Without wasting any time, he threw the spiritual herb towards Zhao Hu. "Zhao Fellow Daoist, this spiritual herb was accidentally obtained by me. I will hand it over to you now. I hope you won't go back on your word!"
Zhao Hu was frightened by his action. He instinctively reached out his hand to catch the spiritual herb. On the other side, Elder Li's expression changed drastically. When he realized what was happening, he immediately roared, "Kid! Such a divine object, how can you throw it out just like that!? "
As he spoke, his body became illusionary. He turned into an afterimage and swiftly rushed towards the spiritual grass in the air.
"Hehe, if you don't give it to him, do you want to give it back to you?" Yang Xuan sneered.
Greed had already sprouted in Zhao Hu's heart. If he and Elder Lee were to fight him together, he would have no chance of winning. Now, he could only take out the spiritual herbs and let the two of them fight for it.
If it was possible, he might be able to reap the benefits of the battle. If it was really not possible, losing a spiritual herb wouldn't have much of an effect on him. After all, there were still quite a number of such spiritual herbs in the storage bag.
However, to him, the spiritual herb wasn't considered precious, but it was different for the two of them.
They knew more than Yang Xuan, and they also understood the value of this spiritual herb.
Old Lee's face was filled with madness. He kept slapping his waist with one hand, sending out several rays of light. He was one step ahead of ___, and he wanted to reach the side of the spiritual herb.
"Get lost!"
Zhao Hu also recovered his senses at this moment. He roared at Elder Lee. A red light flew out from his sleeve and pierced toward Elder Lee. At the same time, he waved his sleeve and shot out several white rays of light.
These lights seemed to have a will. They drew an arc in the air and rushed towards Elder Li's strange insects.
The gap between their cultivation levels was obvious at this moment. As soon as they came into contact with each other, the strange insects that were kept in captivity were sent flying by those rays of light. Elder Li himself was even more shocked as he moved to the side. He used it to avoid the red light.
The red light was the flying shuttle that Zhao Hu often used. After being dodged by Elder Lee, it actually circled around behind him and flew back again.
Old Li gritted his teeth. Immediately, he opened his mouth and shot out a black light towards the spiritual herb. After that, he turned around and faced the flying shuttle. Both of his hands formed a seal, and the Spiritual Force's fluctuation soared into the sky.
The black light that he spat out was extremely fast. When Zhao Hu was about to grab the spiritual herb, it swept the spiritual herb away and drew a huge arc in the air, bypassing Zhao Hu.
When the black light disappeared, the thing inside was revealed. It was a dark green centipede with six wings on its back. Its two tusks were extremely long, and it bit the root of the spiritual herb.
The treasure in his hand was snatched away. Zhao Hu immediately became furious. He flipped his palm and took out the red jade bead once again.
The flying centipede would return to Elder Lee's side sooner or later. He was not in a hurry to deal with it. Instead, he activated the jade bead in his hand, wanting to kill Elder Lee here.
Yang Xuan also moved. The Longevity Sword in his hand drew a mysterious arc in the air. The green light was restrained. On the blade of the sword, there was a cold light, as if it was going to cut through the air.
He circulated the Shangqing Art and swung the sword across the sky. His eyes narrowed slightly, and his gaze shifted between Zhao Hu and Elder Lee.
"Even if he gets the spiritual herb, I'm afraid he won't let this matter go easily. There will always be a victor between the Qifeng Country and the Chiang Country."
Yang Xuan was hesitating. The most rational thing to do now was to leave this place and stay out of this. Or, he would help Zhao Hu kill Elder Lee. No matter what, the outcome would not be good for Chiang Country.
After hesitating for a long time, he let out a long sigh and said to himself, "Forget it. As stated in the book, I will keep my word. Since I have promised Emperor Chiang, I will bet on it."
He calmed his mind, and all the blue Spiritual Force in his body was activated. After being transferred to the Longevity Sword, boundless green light bloomed. After that, it shrunk rapidly and turned into a dark green dot of light. It condensed on the tip of the sword.
"Not enough! Still not enough!"
Yang Xuan gritted his teeth and continuously maneuvered the Spiritual Force. The two of them were still in the midst of a dispute, giving him sufficient time.
Zhao Hu's cultivation base was much stronger than his. It would be very difficult for an ordinary attack to seriously injure him. Because of this, Yang Xuan did his best to gather the Spiritual Force. However, in order to prevent Zhao Hu from suspecting him, his killing intent had already enveloped Elder Lee.
More and more Spirit Aura were injected into the Longevity Sword. A trace of life force quietly bloomed like a spring breeze, light and gentle, making people feel comfortable.
Spots of jade-green radiance sprinkled down from the sky, scattering in all directions.
In the distance, waves of exclamations were heard.
Those soldiers who were fighting in the surroundings could not help but look in the direction of Yang Xuan. Some of the wounds on their bodies began to wriggle. Although they did not heal, the bleeding stopped.
"This... This is the real Immortal Master!"
Someone sighed. His eyes were full of shock and respect.
No matter if it was the soldiers of Qifeng Country or Chiang Country, they were all in a daze. There was no killing intent in the green light. When it landed on their bodies, it brought with it traces of warmth. It had the effect of healing injuries, and its effects were shocking!
However, the battlefield was the battlefield.
After a short pause, the sound of fighting resounded once again, and blood splattered everywhere.
Meanwhile, in a place that no one had noticed, some of the withered grass on the ground actually emitted dots of green light, and they seemed like withered trees that had just come back to life, as they once again glowed with vitality.
A few symbols appeared out of thin air on the blade of the Longevity Sword. A massive amount of vitality erupted once again, and soared into the sky. It was an extremely shocking sight.
Yang Xuan's forehead was covered in cold sweat. He had stopped pouring in the Spiritual Force, but it seemed as if the Longevity Sword had been ignited. The Spiritual Force contained within it was continuously growing, and it had almost exceeded his control.
Such a strange phenomenon caused even Zhao Hu and Elder Lee, who were fighting in the distance, to look over in shock.
Of course, it was just a glance.
Zhao Hu's attention had always been on Elder Lee. Every move of his was filled with killing intent. He wanted to kill Elder Lee immediately.
However, Elder Lee wasn't a simple man either. Although his cultivation base was slightly weaker, he had managed to hold on for a period of time with his strange techniques, and he didn't suffer any serious injuries.
The six-winged centipede kept flying around the two of them, trying to find an opportunity to return to Elder Lee's body. However, under Zhao Hu's careful observation, it still couldn't succeed.
