Eternal Life: My Lifespan Increases Daily

Chapter 213: Chapter 211: Fighting the Ghost Blade Sect Remnants

Until the raging Wind Dragon dispersed, the surrounding dense fog slowly gathered back, covering the area once more.

Song Changming glanced at the three giant serpents’ corpses. This time, he wasn’t as lucky; none of the three yielded Mist gold.

In fact, the yield rate of Mist gold within Fog Beasts is not high.

Out of a hundred Fog Beasts slain, at most, only a few pieces of Mist gold might emerge, or possibly none at all.

Just as Song Changming was about to proceed, he suddenly heard the fine sound of scales scraping against the ground.

”Have I stumbled into the Snake Cave...” Song Changming murmured to himself.

The pure white Wind Attribute Blade Qi on his Dragon Pattern Saber re-emerged like a ribbon, slowly wrapping around the blade and his body.

At that moment, black-scaled giant pythons emerged from the dense fog.

Five, ten...

”Hmm!” Song Changming sensed something and looked upwards at one particularly large serpent.

Above the head of that giant python, a figure stood with arms crossed, overlooking him from high above.

The Black Scaled Pythons, rather than attacking this person, seemed to be supporting him, following closely behind.

This scene led Song Changming to instantly realize the identity of this person.

Surely an Outer Realm Evil Cult member!

Song Changming’s gaze fell on the large Bone Saber strapped to the person’s back.

The forest-white bone blade exuded an ominous Blood Qi, as if it had absorbed the Essence Blood of countless individuals.

”Bone Saber...” Song Changming could feel this person’s extraordinariness; even a brief glance at him brought immense pressure.

”There’s movement here.”

”Black Scaled Python carcasses, it’s a Ghost Blade Sect leftover!”

From afar, chaotic sounds approached and soon, over ten figures penetrated through the fog and appeared before Song Changming.

Song Changming scanned the group and confirmed they were Jianghu experts from the Da Han faction.

Their attire varied; some wore Sect Disciple’s Uniforms, while others resembled Wandering Wanderers.

This group somehow gathered together, drawn by the commotion here.

They too, first glanced at Song Changming, confirming he’s a Da Han Martial Artist, before focusing their attention on the person atop the serpent’s head.

”Indeed, a Ghost Blade Sect remnant!”

Among them, a swordsman and several disciples unhesitatingly released signal flares.

These signal flares, made of unknown materials, shot into the sky, unleashing extremely dazzling beams akin to stars, constantly flickering.

Even nestled within this dense fog, they emitted large patches of light.

But if viewed from afar, whether such brightness could still be seen was uncertain.

Despite the released signal flares, the person on the giant python remained indifferent.

”A Ghost Blade Sect remnant indeed...” Song Changming thought.

He heard them speak with such certainty, though unsure of the truth.

Sixty years ago, the Ghost Blade Sect’s incident left a deep, tragic memory among Da Han Jianghu.

To this day, it remains a subject of horror.

Even Song Changming, hearing about the Ghost Blade Sect’s aura, felt his heart sink, fearing it more.

”Same old, kill them clean, do not consume their Essence Blood.” Liu Yuan spoke from atop the giant python.

Right after, a horde of giant python Fog Beasts went berserk, attacking the crowd.

In an instant, the earth quaked.

These ten or so individuals were quite formidable, all being Qi Refining Martial Artists, with most having formed a Qi Vortex, and possessing First Layer Qi Refining Cultivation.

Two among them even had Second Layer Qi Refining Cultivation.

One seemed to be a Wandering Wanderer, while the other was a sect swordsman, both clearly stronger than the rest.

Especially the sect swordsman, whose Sword Qi had immense destructive power, evidently skilled in high-grade Sword Formulas!

Within a short time, the sect swordsman had already cut down three attacking Black Scaled Pythons, showing the most skillful prowess against the serpents’ assault.

By comparison, the other Qi Refining Martial Artists proved less adept, struggling increasingly against the Black Scaled Pythons.

After the swordsman slew the fourth Black Scaled Python, taking advantage of the gap, he advanced towards the Ghost Blade Sect remnant.

He was one of the elite disciples in this mission from Sword Cliff, and if today he could kill this Ghost Blade Sect remnant, it would be a great achievement.

Returning to Sword Cliff, he would receive rewards, and his fame would spread; a battle rewarding both sides!

With one thrust of his sword, he intended to first eliminate the ghost blade remnant’s python mount.

The sharpness of the Sword Qi in Song Changming’s memory ranked near the top, with not many swordsmen able to match the one in front of him.

However, above, the remnant of the Ghost Blade Sect also drew his Big Bone Saber.

The Bone Saber struck down, and the violent blood-colored Blade Qi instantly descended like a torrent.

This blood-colored Blade Qi not only easily devoured the swordsman’s fierce Sword Qi but also engulfed the swordsman in an instant.

In that moment, the swordsman only felt darkness before his eyes, with a wave of deathly silent cold wind.

A giant blood-colored fierce ghost hovered in the air, descending to claim his life.

This blood-colored ghost was the manifestation of the opponent’s Sword Intent in that strike.

Undoubtedly, this was the martial arts of the Ghost Blade Sect!

The execution of this technique confirmed the identity of the remnant faction of the Ghost Blade Sect.

Song Changming himself initially started his martial path by learning the martial arts of the Ghost Blade Sect.

Thus, at a glance, he could tell that the opponent’s technique came from the same faction as his Soul-breaking Saber.

The difference was that the opponent’s execution was no longer mere martial arts, but a more powerful and profound Sword Technique.

With a roar, the ground shook again, sending dirt and rocks flying.

The swordsman lay in a large pit, already gravely injured.

The giant python and the Ghost Blade Sect remnant descended to harvest the swordsman’s life and essence blood.

At that moment, a sudden gust of wind brought forth three Wind Dragon Blade Qi, directly knocking the Ghost Blade Sect remnant and his giant python mount away.

Liu Yuan flipped and landed, glancing at his slightly damaged robe, then at the already dead giant python mount.

As he looked at Song Changming again, his eyes changed.

Song Changming held the Dragon Pattern Saber, surrounded by Wind Attribute Blade Qi, his aura immensely powerful!

In his eyes, no one else combined posed as much threat as Song Changming!

Song Changming glanced at the injured swordsman; he didn’t expect this formidable swordsman couldn’t withstand even a single strike from the opponent.

It was clear how strong the opponent was!

It could only be said it was worthy of being the remnant of the Ghost Blade Sect.

Song Changming saw no need to waste words with the opponent; since a move had been made, he would not stop.

With a step, arc lightning floated, and he instantly shot towards the opponent.

”Your essence blood is valuable!” Liu Yuan revealed an excited expression, charging straight at Song Changming.

The Big Bone Saber’s blood Qi surged again, with the blood-colored Blade Qi re-emerging.

Song Changming unleashed his Wind Attribute Blade Qi, and the three Qi vortexes within him surged with boundless inner Qi.

The Blade Qi rapidly expanded in the wind, transforming into a roaring wind dragon.

This wind dragon was more refined and potent than before!

With one slash, the wind dragon twisted and collided with the blood-colored Blade Qi in midair.

For a moment, sword Qi intertwined, and energy impacts spread in all directions.

The swordsman lying on the ground not far away couldn’t escape and was sent flying by the impact, caught by a Qi Refining Second Layer wandering wanderer, retreating backward.

”What powerful Blade Qi! Who is he, could he be named on the Celestial List!” The wandering wanderer exclaimed, looking at Song Changming who was battling the Ghost Blade Sect remnant evenly.

”I know this person; he’s the Dragon Blade Guest, first on the Earth List!” The swordsman still had consciousness and spoke.

If it were other Earth List martial artists, he might not recognize them so easily.

But Song Changming, the first on the Earth List, was quite famous at Sword Cliff.

Only because Song Changming had toppled the No.1 title of their Young Master, causing quite a commotion.

The people of Sword Cliff were also amazed; just who could snatch the title from their Young Master’s hands.

Thus, information about Song Changming spread widely at Sword Cliff, and they discussed it in private for a long time.

”Now we finally meet...” The swordsman murmured to himself and soon fell into silence.

In the past, he only thought that the rankings at Zhuji Pavilion were randomly assigned, thinking that someone like this, even not from a Hidden Sect, could not swiftly surpass and overtake their Young Master.

He was a staunch supporter of Nan Chen Guang and deeply doubted the rankings’ authenticity.

Until today, at this very moment.

When Song Changming displayed strength in front of him comparable to top-tier Celestial List experts, even with his support for Nan Chen Guang, he was shaken.

As for future potential and talents, let’s not discuss; just in terms of current strength, would their Young Master really be stronger than the Song Changming before him?

He could no longer be so sure.
