the Soul Devouring Art - techniques that could temporarily enhance his power, facing a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator, Lu Xiaotiān wouldn't stand a chance. Even with these methods, he couldn't bridg..."Better than the rumors suggested" 。Several days ago, many cultivators at the Golden Core stage saw the apparition disappear. A few of them, enraged and frustrated, wanted to take it out on the servants of Lord Zhenwei. 。If they simply dispersed, that would be the end of it. Who would have thought that hidden within Lord Zhenwei's mansion was a mysterious cloaked figure It wasn't until these Golden Core cultivators rebelled that the cloaked figure made his appearance. 。As soon as it appeared, it killed a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator within a few moves and seriously injured a early-stage Golden Core cultivator with one arrow. 。As soon as he made his move, he subdued several reckless Jindan cultivators. 。Anyone who dares to trespass into the estate of Marquis Wēihòu will die. 。At that time, Dou Fenghu's arrogance was at its peak. He had long gone undefeated and scoffed back sarcastically. 。He was just being arrogant and said he'd come back later to ask for advice. 。< Even Dou Fenghu did not wish to stay long. > 。But the man in black was even more domineering than Dou Fenghu. He directly said, "It's better to strike now than to choose a day," and then he launched his attack without hesitation. 。In this battle, Dou Fenghu didn't want to drag it out. He immediately took action and summoned his Ziyan Skull Hammer, even summoning the Devil-Slaying Qi. 。Hearing the name "Malignant Demon Qi", the many Jindan cultivators present all gasped in cold air. With Dou Fenghu's cultivation base at the late stage of Jindan, he had actually cultivated Malignant Demon Qi. It was truly rare to have an opponent. 。The two fought, nearly tearing down the entire residence of Marquis Weihou. Even though Dou Fenghu was powerful and formidable, he was still defeated without any suspense by the man in black. His demonic energy was incinerated by a strange blue flame wielded by the black-robed cultivator. 。

the Purple Vulture Skull Hammer was also destroyed

Even Dou Fenghǔ himself was seriously injured and fled. If it weren't for Zi Yàn's skull hammer, which gave Dou Fenghǔ some time, it's likely that Dou Fenghǔ would have fallen at the Zhenwei Hou mansion with no surprise at all. 。That black-clad figure had already slain a Golden Core mid-stage cultivator with a single strike, and gravely wounded another at the early stage with another. They didn't even seem to be breathing hard as they continued fighting against Dou Fenghu. Even under these circumstances, Dou Fenghu was unable to hold his own. His most prized weapon, the Purple Vulture Skull Hammer, was shattered, and he himself was severely injured before barely escaping with his life. 。The elder with the hooked eyebrows recalled the previous battle, a look of terror still etched on his face. 。He described his experiences in vivid detail. 。"Could that black-cloaked man not have been injured at all" someone beside him asked. 。“Maybe, but I couldn’t see clearly. Dou Fenghu was in a sorry state at the time, but the man in black was still stalking him with ease, even charging into several Golden Core cultivators who were watching, scattering them all. The man in black didn't chase anyone, just stopped pursuing them at the edge of Hou Ye Mansion.” 。Thinking back to when he himself had almost been targeted by the black-clothed men's fire dragon arrows, the old man with the drooping knife brows couldn't help but feel a chill. 。"You're already quite famous. That black-clad man's weapon, couldn't you deduce his origins from the artifact he used" Yu Qingfeng didn't ask the Hanging Knife eyebrow old man again this time, but instead turned to Dou Fenghu, whose face had already fallen. 。Dou Fenghu's face was black and blue, and his heart ached. Everyone laughed at him, each word they spoke like a loud slap across his face. 。And this Yu Qingfeng's family in Wusheng City is even more prominent than Zhenwei Hou, especially his father. Even during Dou Fenghu's prime, he didn't dare to provoke him too much, let alone now that the tiger has fallen into a state of decline... 。Even Dou Fenghu wouldn't dare tell others that the person in black who defeated him was only a cultivator at the mid-stage of the Golden Core. 。I'm afraid that even if I told them, no one would believe me. 。"Young Master Yu, the set of bows and arrows used by the black-clothed man, as well as a pagoda, are both extremely powerful. Especially that pagoda, it can be retracted and expanded at will, its power is not inferior to Dou Fenghu's Purple Wing Skull Hammer." 。There are some renowned experts near the unscathed city. Although many use bows and arrows, those who have reached the level of the "cloth-clad people" are few and far between, and they do not use the fire dragon bows and arrows wielded by the men in black. 。"A wizened old man with drooping eyebrows said," 。“Indeed, this masked man seemed to appear out of thin air. It's a mystery how he ended up at the Marquis Zhenwei’s residence. There have never been similar rumors before.” 。Or perhaps it was Cao Sheng who, before leaving the Hou Mansion, had brought in another expert from the Northern Qi kingdom. 。By the way, I heard that even longer ago, the Silver Orchid Bandit suffered a heavy loss at Cao's residence. After that, they disappeared and never committed any crimes again. It seems like they were badly hurt by the mysterious man in black. 。I also don't know if it has recovered now. 。Lu Xia Tian listened to the crowd chattering on the sidelines, feeling a mixture of strangeness and amusement in his heart. He thought that these people, including Dou Feng Hu, probably wouldn't have dreamt that the mysterious figure everyone was talking about was right in front of them, and what's more, both Dou Huhu, who was directly involved, and the mysterious figure were present at the scene. 。

To hear such rumors about himself from the sidelines, the man in black was increasingly described as formidable. Lu Xia Tian couldn't help but shake his head secretly. People are like that, including Jindan cultivators. They have a gossipy side too.

When it comes to things unknown, I always love to speculate wildly. 。According to the old man with the drooping eyebrows, even after severely injuring Dou Fenghu, he was still strong and formidable. In reality, after his battle with Dou Fenghu, his magic power was no longer functioning properly. If it weren't for the support of the demon beast's soul essence consumed by 《Swallow Souls》, allowing him to operate without using magic power, he would have been exposed immediately. 。Now, looking at the curiosity and awe these people express when talking about the men in black, it seems their deterrent effect has been achieved, even exceeding expectations. 。After Dou Fenghu lost the Purple Wing Skull Hammer and his Devil-Subduing Qi was extinguished in front of everyone, especially when he was still seriously injured, he was like a toothless tiger. The Golden Core cultivators present did not have much respect for him as a failure. 。He was badly hurt, especially by the blue flames and the lingering Qi of the Demonic Suppression Tower, which had a powerful repressive effect on him, stubbornly remaining inside his body. 。It's fundamentally impossible to remove easily, and as time drags on, let alone recovering to its former glory, there's even a chance it might regress. 。Dou Fenghu knew that times had changed. He ignored the sneers and scorn of many Jindan cultivators. 。Eyes gazing at the nose, the nose gazing at the heart, seated beside the stone chair. 。After these people have finished speaking, they will naturally disperse. 。Lu XiaTian originally wanted to leave, but after glancing at Dou Feng Hu's list on the stone table, his body immediately stopped. 。After those cultivators who came to watch the commotion dispersed, Lu Xia Tian sat directly opposite the stone table. 。“Empty Void Sword Stone, do you have it here” Lu Xia Tian narrowed his eyes and asked. The ethereal sword qi within him had been a lingering nightmare ever since the last incident. Even with his cultivation constantly improving, he was still unable to deal with the ethereal sword qi hidden within the sword orb. 。According to the description of the Floating Sword Formation on the Wujian Stone Tablet, to refine a sword core, one needs the rare stone known as Kongming Jian Stone. Coupled with one's own understanding of the sword way, and following the refining method for sword cores in the Floating Sword Scripture, one can successfully create a sword core. 。Kenmaru, while not possessing much killing power on its own, once fused with the spirit sword Youlan, its lethality would increase drastically according to the description in the Piao Miao Sword Technique. It would even approach the level of a spiritual artifact. Once eight Kenmaru fuse into a Jiantai, it would truly ascend to become a spiritual artifact. 。Even without the Niegu Sword Yulan, using condensed eight sword pellets would be enough to form a set of Miaomiao Sword Formation. There isn't much record about the lethality of this formation, only that Jindan cultivators should use it with caution. 。tch from a distance, but would directly charge and easily solve everyone present.
