Without a moment’s hesitation, Ye Wushuang threw another punch.
The **Flesh-Rending Fist**!
A flash of the fist’s radiance, the spiritual membrane condensed, and it struck directly at Lu Qingsong’s chest.
*”Pu…”*
Lu Qingsong spat out a mouthful of blood and staggered backward for dozens of steps.
Yet Ye Wushuang pressed forward relentlessly.
*”Quick, quick, save my brother!”* Lu Qingyan roared.
More than a dozen high-level Yuan Fu warriors closed in at that moment.
*”Get out of my way.”*
With a single shout from Ye Wushuang, the Tian Ya Sword swept horizontally.
The nearest few were instantly torn apart by the sword qi.
The others’ legs trembled, and they dared not come any closer.
This young man was just too powerful!
Even Qingshan had been killed, and now Lu Qingsong was severely injured. They were no match for him, not even for a single move!
How could they fight?
At this moment, Lu Qingyan was even more frantic to stop.
His brother had been defeated!
He had never imagined that his brother would be defeated by Ye Wushuang.
What should he do? What could he do?
By this time, Ye Wushuang had already approached Lu Qingsong with his sword.
The Tian Ya Sword was poised at Lu Qingsong’s throat. Ye Wushuang, with sweat on his forehead, smiled and said, *”I’ll take your spirit points too!”*
With a *spurt*,
Blood splashed across five paces.
Lu Qingsong’s body slowly collapsed to the ground.
Another so-called “demon” had met his end.
Lu Qingyan was completely numb.
Without a word, he turned and fled.
Ye Wushuang chased after him with his sword, sneering, *”Didn’t you want to kill me, this country bumpkin?”*
Seeing Ye Wushuang pursuing him with his sword, Lu Qingyan’s spirit shattered. His face turned pale, and he fled without looking back.
But how could Ye Wushuang let him escape?
With a sword strike from a distance,
Lu Qingyan, like Ye Wushuang, was at the seventh level of Yuan Fu, yet he couldn’t withstand even a single sword strike from Ye Wushuang.
A *spurt* sounded.
The sword qi pierced through Lu Qingyan’s back, knocking him to the ground.
Without pausing, Ye Wushuang continued to hunt down the other dozen or so disciples of the Giant Sword Sect.
However, these people scattered and fled, and in the end, Ye Wushuang only managed to kill four or five of them before turning back.
He approached Lu Qingyan, removed the token,
*”Thirty thousand…”*
Then he went to Lu Qingsong and removed the token.
*”One hundred and ten thousand.”*
Ye Wushuang’s eyes brightened.
Originally, with the spirit points from Qingshan, he had already accumulated two hundred and fifty thousand spirit points. Now, with these two added, he had three hundred and ninety thousand spirit points!
In previous years, those who could enter the top seven usually had more than five hundred thousand spirit points.
He was not far from the top seven now.
Moreover, Ye Wushuang suddenly realized that
offending these “demons” of the Seven Great Sects was not necessarily a bad thing.
If they came to cause trouble,
he would just kill them.
In this way, not only did he seize their spirit points, but he also reduced the number of competitors.
Lu Qingsong and Qingshan were definitely capable of entering the top seven.
But with less than a month gone, and both of them dead, that meant two fewer major competitors.
*”If I want to surpass the last six among the top seven, I would need at least three million spirit points to be safe!”*
Three million spirit points!
How could he obtain them?
By killing fifth-stage spiritual beasts?
That was simply absurd.
Not to mention whether there were any fifth-stage spiritual beasts in this branch of the Youlong Mountains, even if there were, even if Ye Wushuang reached the Tian Gang realm…
he would still be no match for them!
What about using cunning?
Fifth-stage spiritual beasts were truly invincible beings beyond the Tian Gang and Wan Fa realms, akin to kings among beasts. Cunning… even those in the Tian Gang realm wouldn’t stand a chance.
Perhaps fourth-stage spiritual beasts were more feasible.
The lowest value for a fourth-stage spiritual beast was twenty thousand spirit points.
If he could take down a few high-level ones, that would be hundreds of thousands of spirit points.
However, that would have to wait until he reached the Tian Gang realm.
For now, it was more practical to target third-stage spiritual beasts in the Tian Gang realm.
Beasts like the Flame-Swallowing Tiger and the Blue-Scale Beast were relatively easier to deal with.
After collecting the treasures from these few, Ye Wushuang left the place directly…
That Li Yun ancient tomb still needed to be investigated.
The Li Clan was one of the Seven Great Sects of Qingzhou. With a powerful member of the clan defecting, regardless of whether the map was real or fake, it was necessary to see for himself.
Ye Wushuang continued to follow the map and delve deeper…
In the next three to five days, Ye Wushuang was not in a hurry. He moved slowly, looking for opportunities to deal with some third-stage spiritual beasts.
At the same time, he continuously stabilized his seventh Yuan Fu.
The Yuan Fu, formed by the gathering of spiritual energy, was the foundation of a warrior.
Before reaching the Tian Gang realm, the stronger the Yuan Fu, the stronger the Tian Gang Qi would be when condensed.
On this day, with bright sunshine, in a quiet valley,
Ye Wushuang sat cross-legged, his internal energy becoming calm and balanced.
The seven Yuan Fu continuously expanded and grew, accommodating more spiritual energy and gathering it within.
Slowly, Ye Wushuang opened his eyes and exhaled.
*”Huff…”*
After expelling a breath of turbid air, Ye Wushuang’s eyes became clear.
*”Now I have truly stabilized at the seventh level…”*
With his current seventh level, combined with his fully cultivated sword intent, the Tian Ya Sword, and the Six Elements United Sword Technique, he could kill Lu Qingsong.
Without needing to use the Flesh-Rending Technique!
Without needing to use the Tai Xu sword qi.
Now at the seventh Yuan Fu, the number of Tai Xu sword qi he could summon from the second level of the Nine-Heavens Spirit Suppressing Pagoda had reached seven hundred!
This sword qi was a first-class weapon for attack and slaughter, and it was Ye Wushuang’s most powerful weapon at present.
*”According to the map…”*
Ye Wushuang got up and left the valley, looking at the dense forest ahead and muttering to himself, *”It’s not far ahead…”*
Ye Wushuang stepped forward cautiously.
However, what Ye Wushuang did not know was that during these five days, while he was focused on hunting spiritual beasts and stabilizing his level, a shocking piece of news had already spread throughout the Youlong Mountains…
