Chapter 78 – Killed to seize grass
Chapter 78 Killed to seize grass
The Elder Pavilion was located beside the collapsed bamboo room of Elder Yu, and at that time, Lu Guanming was kneeling at the door of its gate with a remorse look on his face.
“Master, I, Lu Guanming, am useless. I was unable to prevent you from being taken away by that culprit!”
Lu Guanming lifted his face upwards and heaved a deep sorrowful sigh.
Behind him were standing some of the core disciples of Zhentian Sect who were his good friends.
One of them offered an advice and suggested: “I have just inquired that earlier, Long Yu broke an arm of Brother Ling Lie in Yu Guan city, and now, Elder Zheng Changlao, the teacher of Ling Lie, is very angry and is actively looking for Elder Yu. Let us go together with Elder Zheng and look for Long Yu.”
Another man heard this, and suddenly his eyes shone brightly: “Yes, although, Zheng Changlao is only the law enforcement elder, but he has also stepped into Zhenling mystical realm. Once found Long Yu, he should be able to grasp him!”
“Well, according to you, I, Lu Guanming, who has to deal with everybody’s bad words, should depend on fellow apprentices!”
Lu Guanming stood up and said bitterly.
“Lu brother, I assure you, we as your fellow disciples would certainly work hand in hand with you!”
The eyeballs of that core disciple, who proposed that suggestion, took a roll and said: “But I hear that Long Yu actually has many good things, for example, those boots, and that long spear……….”
Lu Guanming heard him and suddenly said: “If I am able to find that Long Yu, I will save my teacher.”
“That’s good!”
That person laughed: “So, Brother Lu, you alone are a disciple of Elder Yu, s if asked later, we can say that we were moving together with Elder Zheng!”
“Indeed, let’s go.”
Lu Guanming’s face was full of hatred and he turned around to set out. He actually didn’t perceive that these fellow disciples were simply mocking him.
……
And at this moment, in the abyss of Teng snake.
Long Yu, grasping the Qian Dragon Spear in one hand and carrying Elder Yu in another, soon stepped into Teng snake’s abyss.
Now, his power had increased considerably and was no longer the way he used to be the last time he came to this forest. If now he encountered a Teng snake king, his spear could kill it with a single strike or it could be completely suppressed by only releasing the repression of world influence.
But since he was moving towards the depths of Teng snake’s abyss, so it was possible to encounter a stronger ominous beast, in fact, there was even the possibility of encountering beasts above Zhenling mystical realm!
Although, with the conversion of Qian Dragon Spear into Nine Hidden Qian Dragon Spear, Long Yu could fight with a beast of Zhenling realm, but he didn’t have much assurance of winning.
Because in addition to the basic force, the most important thing was that a Zhenling realm powerhouse could also congeal Zhenling.
And in the face of congealed Zhenling, Long Yu’s suppressive power of world influence really didn’t stand a chance!
“If I encounter a powerhouse as strong as Wang Tianzhuo, I can’t say who will win and who will lose.”
Long Yu thought to himself and cautiously moved ahead in the forest.
Suddenly, he heard the sound of the waterfall not very far from him and headed towards it.
Of course, after receiving the task of collecting the medicinal herbs, he tried his best to know about these three types of medicinal herbs, and knew that the dragonhead grass could help in stimulating and awakening of brain, and it generally grew in areas with abundance of water.
And now, he was near waterfalls, so it was possible to find the dragonhead grass here. Long Yu decided to get it to awaken the brain and restore the mind of Elder Yu!
He quickly ran towards the sound of the waterfall, but at the same time, he didn’t forget to hide himself, because he knew very well that the people of Zhentian Sect would definitely be looking for his whereabouts.
“Huh? There’s someone here, I should hide first!”
Long Yu immediately displayed ghost flash and his whole stature instantly turned hollow, and immediately, he hid in a bush!
As the sound of the waterfall was getting louder, the voices of those two men talking to each other, gradually entered Long Yu’s ears.
“I finally found the first dragonhead grass, it was really not easy!”
“Brother Zhang, you say, Zhentian sect issued the task that they want us to collect so many dragonhead grasses, blossomless oak fruits, and Yu Gunhua flowers, in the end, what’s the use?”
“Hey, Brother Li, you do not even know? Elder Wu holds grudge against Elder Yu for many years, and now, since Elder Yu has been seriously poisoned from the attack of Qiansi sect’s disciples, if we pick all these medicinal herbs, Elder Yu may not have the medicinal herbs to cure him.”
“Elder Yu has been affected by a terrifying toxin which can make people unconscious and can corrode their meridians and Dantian.”
“Hey, the seven sects competition is near, if Elder Yu dies then our Elder Wu will be in a very good mood and will definitely give us more rewards!”
“In the depths of Teng snake’s abyss, these three medicinal herbs are extremely rare and disciples of Knife Cut Sect have already plucked most of these herbs, now, from where will the disciples of Zhentian Sect get these herbs?”
Two young men were walking and talking to each other, and simply didn’t think that someone was listening to their talk.
Long Yu, hidden in the shade of bushes, was listening to their talk and immediately came to know a lot of things.
It turned out that there was a hatred between Elder Wu and Elder Yu!
Earlier, the three disciples of Knife Cut Sect wanted to kill Elder Yu and were actually sent by Elder Wu? Moreover, Elder Wu not only sent men to assassinate Elder Yu, but issued the task to the disciples of Knife Cut Sect to pluck these three medicinal herbs.
“Wu Jianxin issued the task to the core disciples of Zhentian Sect to collect three medicinal herbs to save injured Elder Yu. It seems now I can connect all the dots. Was this matter related to Wu Jianxin? Was Wu Jianxin deliberately stalling for time, making the disciples of Knife Cut Sect to first step out to pluck the three medicinal herbs completely?”
Long Yu secretly guessed, and quickly noticed that Brother Zhang and Brother Li, who were disciples of Knife Cut Sect, were at Wudao ninth layer and what was the most important that there were two dragonhead grasses in their hands!
“As these guys are at Wudao ninth layer, with my current strength, I should be able to beat them easily.”
Long Yu thought to himself then quietly put down Elder Yu, and grasping Nine Hidden Qian Dragon Spear in one hand, he moved towards the two disciples of Knife Cut Sect in the ghost form.
“Who’s there?”
Those two disciples of Knife Cut Sect were at Wudao ninth layer and as Long Yu approached 100 feet of their range, they became aware of him!
“Just a Wudao eighth layer disciple of Zhentian Sect, kill him!”
Brother Zhang Qiang, whose strength was stronger, saw through the cultivation of Long Yu, and grasping a black handle knife, he rushed towards Long Yu!
“These disciples of Knife Cut Sect are really rude!”
Long Yu chuckled and his ghost body actually appeared from the other direction while holding Nine Hidden Qian Dragon Spear which suddenly flashed in front of Brother Li.
Brother Zhang approached to kill him, but at that time, Long Yu’s figure actually blurred and his knife attack went right through him!
“Heavy Spear Shadows!”
Long Yu instantly integrated his spear with the suppressive power of his world influence, and suddenly, dozens of spear shadows rushed towards Brother Li!
“Knife cut cross!”
Brother Li showed a sharp reaction, and wanted to escape this spear attack, but it was too late, however, he took out his black handle knife, and waved it three times in front of his chest, and instantaneously condensed his Xuan qi!
Knife barrier appeared in front of him, trying to resist Long Yu’s attack!
The next moment, however, the terrific suppression of world influence shrouded Brother Li, and his knife barrier was shattered into pieces
“Die!”
Nine Hidden Dragon qi filled the air and the terrific suppression of the world influence stagnated the circulation of Xuan qi in the meridians of brother Li in such a way that he was unable to take any measure, and helplessly watched the raid of numerous spear shadows on his body.
puff! puff! puff!
Numerous spear shadows impaled him and made several holes in Brother Li’s body. He simply stared and fell on the ground bleeding profusely!
As he died, he realized how he never thought that he would be killed in this way by a Wudao eighth layer disciple of Zhentian Sect!
Brother Zhang’s knife attack went in vain as Long Yu had blurred himself, and when he turned his head actually only to see that his fellow apprentice dying under the heavy raid of numerous spear shadows!
“Damn you, how dare you kill someone from my Knife Cut sect!”
Brother Zhang waved his black handle knife and cut out the air three times, and suddenly, three knife-lights rushed towards Long Yu: “Startled Great wild goose three knives!”
Bam! Bam! Bam!
Three knife-lights arrived from the front, left and right, from three directions, rushing at a tremendous speed towards Long Yu!
“Nine Hidden Dragon prance!”
Long Yu waved the spear in his hand, and immediately air current curled up beneath him and his whole stature was suddenly rolled up to the high altitude in the sky!
Shua!
Long Yu was curled up by the air current and Nine Hidden Dragon qi enveloped the spear-tip, and suddenly, Long Yu leapt above the dense forest. One could see the moon hanging in the background as Long Yu was still in the midair, while the whole Teng snake’s abyss appeared like a piece of silver platter in the white moonlight!
“Kill!”
Long Yu fell like a meteor while holding the spear and keeping the spear-tip aiming at Brother Zhang!
It really seemed strange to Brother Zhang, where did Long Yu go after jumping so high into the sky, how could he leap so high into the sky?
When he saw Long Yu’s figure coming towards him with the spear reflecting the white moonlight, he immediately felt like escaping but it was too late.
After the transformation of Qian Dragon Spear into Nine Hidden Qian Dragon Spear, Long Yu’s move of dragon prance had undergone a corresponding change, and now it could be called as Nine Hidden Dragon prance.
All of a sudden, he could jump very high in the sky and fall down at a terrifying speed!
“Suppression of world influence!”
As soon as Long Yu shouted loudly, numerous spear shadows suddenly came crashing to the ground, but Brother Zhang, at that crucial moment, had moved one step aside, so these spear shadows didn’t hit him directly.
But even so, the strong air current generated by this spear sent Brother Zhang flying and his whole stature crashed on a thick tree trunk so heavily that the entire tree trunk was knocked down!
Even if he had not been directly hit by the spear, but he sustained an enormous hit.
Long Yu stepped forward and took out the dragonhead grass from the pocket of Brother Zhang.
“Now that I have dragonhead grass, I expect that Elder Yu will regain consciousness.”
Thus, Long Yu removed the two dragonhead grasses from the corpses of Knife Cut Sect disciples!
He returned to the same place where he had left the unconscious body of Elder Yu, and soon, he disappeared from that place without a trace.
This place saw a lot of fighting, and it would definitely attract the attention of people nearby. Since Long Yu wanted to revive Elder Yu so he must look for a safe place.
Soon, he arrived below the waterfall.
“This is the first dragonhead grass and can be administered directly. I should first crush it, mix in water and let Elder Yu drink it slowly.”
Long Yu crushed the dragonhead grass in his hand then mixed it with a small amount of water and fed it to Elder Yu.
