Cultivation: I have an omnipotent land

Chapter 99 The Sophisticated Egoist

Having successfully eliminated the enemy with a single blow, Che Hong quickly looked at the falling Yang Zhiyuan, only to see him reach out and catch the woman, gently bringing her to a safe landing.

"Junior Sister Zhiyuan, wake up!" Che Hong took out an antidote pill and put it into Yang Zhiyuan's mouth.

He was in a great mood at the moment. Usually, there was always Song Ze getting in the way, so he didn't have many opportunities to show off like this.

Yang Zhiyuan coughed lightly and slowly opened her eyes.

"It's Senior Brother Che."

"It's good that Junior Sister Zhiyuan is alright." Che Hong helped Yang Zhiyuan up, then patted his chest and said with a smile.

"It's dangerous here. Just hide behind me."

However, Yang Zhiyuan shook her head and said firmly, "Senior Brother Che, don't underestimate me. Although I am a female cultivator, I am not a coward. I will face the enemy with you!"

Yang Zhiyuan patted her storage bag and summoned a silver longsword.

"You barbarian brat, it's three against one now." Che Hong turned to look at Ming Yu, sneering as he rubbed his hands together, eager for a fight.

This is a great opportunity. He needs to make a good impression on his junior sister Zhiyuan and show her that Song Ze, that pretty boy, is unreliable when it matters most.

"That's not necessarily true."

Suddenly, Yang Zhiyuan activated her spiritual sword, unexpectedly slashing at Che Hong's neck.

As a body-refining cultivator, Che Hong possessed a powerful physique, but this spirit sword, being a high-grade magic weapon, still severed his neck.

"Yang Zhiyuan... what are you doing?" Che Hong was shocked and angry, but even more so, he couldn't believe it.

"Shut up, you disgusting trash! I've put up with you for so long... The stench you constantly emanate, the pungent smell of blood and filth, and your perverted, narcissistic voice."

The woman who had just looked at him with tenderness and gratitude now had a look of disgust on her face.

Since the body-refining cultivator could not die after being beheaded, Yang Zhiyuan was worried that he might have some secret technique to reattach his head. So she threw a fireball spell, burning Che Hong's head to ashes.

She then manipulated her flying sword to slash Che Hong's body into countless pieces.

"Disgusting, absolutely disgusting... This guy actually touched me! That filthy, despicable bastard, die... die!!"

While cursing, Yang Zhiyuan kept purifying her clothes with a cleansing spell, just like a neurotic with obsessive-compulsive disorder.

This ruthless scene made the barbarian chieftain's eyelids twitch, and he began to doubt whether this woman was even a normal person.

Fortunately, this corpse was a poisonous corpse from the Corpse Soul Sect, which ordinary demonic beasts couldn't eat, so it was a pity to destroy it like this.

Bringing her thoughts back, Mingyu looked at Xiao Ming expressionlessly.

"I said it was two against one."

"Yang Zhiyuan, you're the one who leaked our location this time, aren't you?" Recalling the previous failed operation, Xiao Ming had a guess in his mind, and unconsciously put one hand behind his back.

"That's right, I did it." Yang Zhiyuan straightened her clothes, her expression calm and indifferent, as if her earlier outburst was just someone else's illusion.

"You betrayed your sect, you betrayed humanity, and now you want to be a dog for these barbarians and demons?"

"Why put it so harshly? It's just a matter of each getting what they need," Yang Zhiyuan said, shrugging.

"The barbarians give me what I want and information so I can complete missions and earn contribution points, while I regularly provide the barbarians with prey so they can better offer sacrifices to the spirits."

It was precisely because of her act as an inside agent and betrayal of information that Yang Zhiyuan was able to thrive at the border, not only keeping her life safe but also making rapid progress in her cultivation.

"He killed so many people for his own selfish desires, and he still acts like he doesn't care. He's shameless!" Xiao Ming said with disgust.

"Don't try to label me like that. What do sects and the human race have to do with me?" Yang Zhiyuan scoffed.

"I don't care about any grand principles of humanity, I only care about my own interests!"

"Besides, what gives you the right to act so righteous? You came to this border city wall, not to protect humanity, but for your own benefit. Aren't you also a selfish person?"

"I, Xiao, am certainly not some selfless saint, but at least I understand righteousness, treat people sincerely, and know how to repay kindness. And you? First you colluded with foreign races, and now you've killed those who tried to save you. Calling you shameless is too lenient; you're truly a despicable wretch!"

"You...you dare to insult me ​​like that..." Yang Zhiyuan's face flushed red with anger.

"Stupid woman, how long are you going to keep talking to him? Can't you see he's trying to trick you into revealing information?" Mingyu said coldly.

Xiao Ming glanced at Ming Yu, then revealed his right hand, which had been behind his back, with a bead in his palm.

"A photo-taking stone." Yang Zhiyuan couldn't help but laugh when she saw the stone.

"Now that things have come to this, do you really think you'll make it back alive?"

Yang Zhiyuan said no more, and the silver flying sword immediately hovered in her hand. As magic power was injected, the spiritual sword rapidly grew larger.

Greatsword Technique!

A massive silver sword, three zhang long, carrying a sharp sword aura, slashed down towards Xiao Ming.

Boom!

The tortoise-shell shield rapidly expanded, blocking the silver greatsword.

"It's just a tortoise shell, break it!" Yang Zhiyuan shouted sharply.

The silver greatsword grew even larger, and the tortoise-shell shield could no longer withstand it. A crack appeared on its surface, and it was directly knocked back to its original shape.

But Xiao Ming was not afraid at all, and patted the storage bag.

A long spear crackling with lightning appeared in his hand. As the silver greatsword slashed down in front of him, Xiao Ming wielded the lightning-crackling spear and thrust it forward with all his might.

The spear tip clashed with the sword blade, and the sword energy and lightning devoured each other.

In an instant, the lightning overwhelmed the sword energy and spread continuously towards the sword.

Click~

A crack appeared on the silver greatsword, which then multiplied until it shattered completely.

"Impossible, this magical artifact of yours..." Yang Zhiyuan recalled the silver spirit sword in disbelief.

It shattered her greatsword technique with a single strike; this magic weapon must be a top-grade magic weapon.

"Boy, you've got to die!"

On the other side, the barbarian Mingyu gathered the remaining golden-feathered birds and swooped down towards Xiao Ming.

"You've come at the perfect time!" Xiao Ming laughed heartily.

As the Thunder Banner Spear was swung, a banner immediately appeared near the tip of the spear.

The flag also featured a ferocious beast resembling a lion, which suddenly came to life, emerged from the flag, and let out a roar.

It was the Thunder Spirit that Xiao Ming used the Gu Spirit technique to refine into the magic weapon.

The next moment, dazzling lightning burst forth from its body.

In the Five Elements, metal and fire combine to form thunder, thus thunder possesses the attribute of restraining metal and fire.

Those low-level golden-feathered birds, upon contact with the lightning emitted by the Thunder Spirit, became paralyzed all over and fell to the ground in excruciating pain.

"go!"

Xiao Ming pointed at the barbarian, and Lei Ling roared, transforming into a bolt of lightning that instantly appeared before him.

Faced with the ferocious Thunder Spirit, the fifth-tier Golden Feather Bird spread its wings, flinging out a large number of golden feathers, before finally creating distance again.

"Let's fly into the air!" Mingyu shouted.

However, this was of no use at all. Lei Ling strode between the cliffs as if he were walking on flat ground.

It leaped into the air, roared at the sky, and immediately gathered lightning energy, transforming it into a bolt of lightning that struck down at the golden-feathered bird.

The golden-feathered bird, unable to flash its wings, let out a mournful cry and plummeted back to the ground.

A dignified fifth-tier demon beast was actually suppressed by the thunder spirit summoned by this Gu Spirit Technique.
