Chapter 142 Han Long

Inside the Wuling Town earth prison, the leader of this Baihuo Cult branch immediately flew into a rage upon hearing these words.

These two captured Town Demon Guard reserves had been subjected to torture, and both soft and hard words had been exhausted.

These two fellows were just like stones in a latrine—simply stinking and hard.

The moment Sun Xuan and the others arrived in Wuling Town, the people of the Baihuo Cult already knew.

It was just that this branch of the Baihuo Cult usually did not operate in Qinghe Town.

Coming to Qinghe Town this time was because there were other purposes hidden within it.

Furthermore, because the incident happened hastily, this team of theirs had not yet had time to gain a specific understanding of Qinghe Town before hastily running into someone else's territory.

To cover up the true purpose of this trip, they had caused quite a few things in Qinghe Town, using them as a fog to confuse their true purpose.

Therefore, many disciples of this Baihuo Cult branch that came to Qinghe County were not within Wuling Town, which was being used as a temporary headquarters.

Even the true leader of this Baihuo Cult branch that came to Qinghe County had already personally gone to investigate information for the sake of their true purpose this time.

The person in charge currently inside the earth prison was merely the second-in-command, temporarily managing this temporary headquarters within Wuling Town.

They were still quite surprised that the Town Demon Guard could investigate into Wuling Town so quickly, given that they were Baihuo Cult disciples.

This situation could not help but make the acting leader exceptionally anxious in his heart.

Moreover, they were unclear about the specific strength of the people who had come from the Town Demon Guard.

Right now, they could only see if they could pry out some information from the mouths of these two accidentally captured Town Demon Guard reserves.

Wuling Town had been controlled by them with so much effort, controlling all the residents, and even creating an extremely normal and prosperous scene.

The purpose was to confuse the Qinghe County Demon Suppression Guard and other forces with decent strength in Qinghe County.

But these Baihuo Cult disciples did not expect that this matter would backfire on them, exposing the clues ahead of time.

However, the good news was that the current Qinghe County Demon Suppression Guard, including the two major forces of the Shangguan Family and Qingdan Sect,

really knew nothing at all about the true purpose of this Baihuo Cult branch.

As for the commotion made by the Baihuo Cult, in the eyes of various forces in Qinghe County, this couldn't be more normal.

Rebels, after all; if they didn't stir up some trouble, it would instead be abnormal.

However, after Sun Xuan and the others arrived at Wuling Town, these people of the Baihuo Cult branch still became nervous and uneasy.

They were afraid that Sun Xuan and the others had really investigated something out, and once Sun Xuan's group saw something,

then whether the plan for their Baihuo Cult's operation this time could succeed would be hard to say.

Therefore, this acting leader of the Baihuo Cult branch was so anxiously eager to know some information from the mouths of these two reserves.

But what this temporary leader could never have imagined was that no matter what methods he used, these two Town Demon Guard reserves simply said nothing.

"Damn it, how much money can you reserves collect in a month?

Only two qian of silver a month, is it worth risking your lives for!"

The more this acting leader thought, the more chaotic his mind became. At this moment, with a face full of fury, he grabbed one reserve's hair and roared directly into his face.

Unfortunately, this Town Demon Guard reserve ignored him.

In fact, these reserves did not dare to reveal anything, because as long as these reserves had families, all their family members were completely controlled in the hands of the Town Demon Guard.

For the safety of their family members, they could not spill a single bit of intelligence regarding the Town Demon Guard.

At this moment, the acting leader of this Baihuo Cult branch waved his hand somewhat irritably, and then said to a Baihuo Cult disciple beside him:

"These two pieces of trash are useless, kill them all!"

After the words fell, that Baihuo Cult disciple immediately nodded, then with a flash of his blade and a drop of his hand, completely resolved these two unlucky fellows.

"Han Long has been out for so long, why hasn't he returned yet!"

After his subordinates finished off the two Town Demon Guard reserves, this acting leader spoke again.

Because a group of zombies previously conjured up by the Town Demon Guard had disrupted the originally peaceful illusion of Wuling Town,

this acting leader worried about attracting the attention of other forces in Qinghe Town, so after that group of Town Demon Guards left, he had no choice but to dispatch subordinates to go and eliminate those zombies.

These zombies looked fierce and were immune to blades and spears, but their strength was very ordinary.

As long as a ranked Martial Artist was dispatched to go and eliminate these zombies, there wouldn't be too big of a problem.

However, for the sake of insurance, this acting leader still dispatched the strongest Martial Artist under his command.

An Eighth Stage Middle Stage expert headed over to handle this matter.

Furthermore, this move also carried a bit of probing intent.

An Eighth Stage Middle Stage Martial Artist could also be considered a regional expert within a county.

This acting leader had instructed this Eighth Stage Middle Stage Martial Artist that after eliminating those zombies, if there was an opportunity, he should probe the background of those Town Demon Guards.

If those Town Demon Guards were lacking in strength, he should capture them all and lock them up.

And try his best to seal off the information. Once their leader finished investigating the information,

all the disciples of this Baihuo Cult branch would be dispatched in full force, and after finishing the matter, they would immediately leave Qinghe County.

If the Town Demon Guards who came to Wuling Town this time were too strong, then he should quickly flee back.

Then all the Baihuo Cult disciples in Wuling Town would completely hide themselves and not show their heads at all.

Waiting for their leader's return, believing that the Town Demon Guard of a mere county city, even if their Town Demon Envoy came, might not necessarily be the leader's opponent.

Meanwhile, Han Long, whom this acting leader spoke of, was encountering quite a bit of trouble.

Although Han Long's strength was not weak, he was still quite cautious in his demeanor.

At this moment, he was sent to deal with these low-tier zombies and then take the opportunity to feel out the background of these Town Demon Guards who came to Wuling Town.

Han Long did not go around looking for the traces of those Town Demon Guards right off the bat.

Instead, on the way to deal with these low-tier zombies, he silently released his aura.

Han Long believed that as long as those Town Demon Guards sensed his aura, they would definitely take the initiative to come find him.

After all, those Town Demon Guards also came to Wuling Town with a mission. As long as he leaked some aura, the Town Demon Guards, anxious to complete their mission, would not let go of this opportunity to catch the mastermind behind the scenes.

In this way, the initiative was firmly grasped in his own hands.

By then, once something went wrong, he would also be able to escape or call for reinforcements in time.

Just like that, with a cautious expression, Han Long approached the dozens of Bronze Zombies.

After waiting for a short while, seeing that the people from the Town Demon Guard did not appear, Han Long prepared to eliminate these zombies first.

Although these zombies were not taken seriously by Han Long, once those Town Demon Guards arrived and engaged in battle with him, these unranked zombies really might become the last straw that broke the camel's back.

The robustly built Han Long was seen taking down a pair of melon-shaped bronze hammers from his back.

Then, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, and the whole person, like an out-of-control wild boar, holding the two melon-shaped bronze hammers, frantically charged towards those Bronze Zombies.

"Boom boom!"

Only a series of clanging iron and steel roars were heard echoing out. Under Han Long's bronze hammers, head after head of Bronze Zombies were like things made of flour, directly blasted to pieces with a single hammer strike.

Then, patches of blue attribute light spheres were scattered across the ground.

[Shattering Mountain Hammer + 1.6%]

[Physique + 5.9]

…

Seeing this, Sun Xuan, hiding in the dark, immediately and silently absorbed these attribute light spheres.

Not long after, these twenty to thirty Bronze Zombies, alienated by Sun Xuan using the Shijiang Technique, became a ground of shattered debris.

As for the strength of this Baihuo Cult disciple who came to deal with the Bronze Zombies, Sun Xuan and Chu Lin also gained a simple understanding.

"Brother Sun, although this Baihuo Cult disciple's strength is not weak, his martial arts strength has already reached the Realm of the Eighth Stage Middle Stage.

However, observing his move routines, he probably hasn't cultivated his Martial Skill to the Transcendent Realm.

Furthermore, the true spirit artifact I hold is somewhat special. As long as the true spirit artifact in the opponent's hand is not too strong, I can sense whether they hold a true spirit artifact in their hand.

And through my sensing of this Baihuo Cult disciple, he probably does not hold a true spirit artifact in his hand.

In this way, with the strength of both you and me, wanting to take him down should pose no problem.

Even in the event of a misjudgment, with this person's methods, wanting to keep you and me here is still impossible.

At that time, you and I can just leave and go to the Town Demon Guard headquarters for reinforcements.

How about it, Brother Sun, let the two of us join forces and try whether we can take down this rebel."

Listening to Chu Lin's analysis, Sun Xuan couldn't help revealing a hint of a smile at the corners of his mouth as he spoke:

"Alright, let's just test what the strength of this renowned Baihuo Cult is actually like."

Sun Xuan was quite willing to participate in battles where the strength gap wasn't huge. After all, once a battle occurred, attribute light spheres would drop.

And Sun Xuan could rapidly enhance his own strength through the method of absorbing attribute light spheres.

Just in that short moment just now, Sun Xuan had mastered another Martial Skill no inferior to the Magic Silver Hand.

Moreover, his body strength soared by another notch once again.

It's just that those Bronze Zombies blasted apart by Han Long did not drop attribute light spheres capable of increasing the Soul.

This should be because they were all created by Sun Xuan, which was why no attribute light spheres dropped.

Seeing Sun Xuan agree, Chu Lin said no more.

Chu Lin was seen reaching out to take off the thick-backed machete he had been carrying on his back, and then charged towards that Han Long with eyes full of murderous intent.

As for Sun Xuan, he clenched both hands, and a patch of silver radiance immediately flowed across Sun Xuan's palms like flowing water.

Immediately afterwards, the muscles on his body surface, cooperating with true essence, twisted and condensed for a while, and an indestructible dark black armor condensed on Sun Xuan's body surface.

Sun Xuan at this moment directly deployed the Transcendent skill Iron Fiend True Body.

Facing a Martial Artist who was a major Realm higher than him, although Sun Xuan had a formidable Physical Body and multiple Martial Skills reaching the Transcendent Realm, the caution that should be had was still indispensable.

After Sun Xuan unleashed the Iron Fiend True Body, Chu Lin, who was charging towards Han Long with a blade in hand, clearly revealed a look of astonishment on his face.

Chu Lin had previously known that Sun Xuan grasped a true spirit artifact in his hand, and his strength wasn't as simple as an ordinary Ninth Stage Late Stage Martial Artist.

However, the fact that Sun Xuan, besides grasping a true spirit artifact, had actually cultivated a Martial Skill to the Transcendent Realm and comprehended a Transcendent skill,

Chu Lin was completely unaware of at all.

Seeing Sun Xuan use the Iron Fiend True Body right now, Chu Lin's regard for Sun Xuan in his heart immediately increased by a few more notches.

Watching the flash of astonishment in Chu Lin's eyes, Sun Xuan didn't care too much about it in his heart.

This true spirit artifact and Iron Fiend True Body were merely a part of his strength.

Revealing some of it didn't matter either.

It could just happen to deter some petty people, avoiding trouble caused to him by some blind fellows.

You must know that the Transcendent skills grasped in Sun Xuan's hands were not just one, but a full four.

Moreover, this quantity would continue to increase as Sun Xuan's number of battles increased and the number of absorbed attribute light spheres increased.

Therefore, just exposing one or two Transcendent skills only brought benefits to Sun Xuan at this moment, without much harm.

Furthermore, Sun Xuan at this moment, after his Physique attribute increased once again, felt that the speed at which he refined true essence had sped up by quite a bit.

I'm afraid that right now, as long as he found a place to enter seclusion and Cultivate for three to five days, he would be able to Breakthrough to the Realm of the Eighth Stage Martial Artist, increasing his strength by quite a bit once again.

At this moment, Sun Xuan was seen using the Ghost Shadow Step beneath his feet, and the whole person, like an illusion, rapidly charged towards Han Long.

Meanwhile, Chu Lin, who had charged towards Han Long a step ahead of Sun Xuan, had already exchanged blows with Han Long.

"Clang!"

Only a humming sound of metal clashing was heard echoing out. Chu Lin had already slashed his blade onto the melon-shaped bronze hammers smashed towards him by Han Long.

Although neither Chu Lin's thick-backed machete nor Han Long's melon-shaped bronze hammers were true spirit artifacts,

but these two weapons also incorporated some powerful metals like starlight iron.

Whether it was weight, sharpness, or sturdiness, they far surpassed ordinary weapons.

In this head-on bombardment between the two, surprisingly neither could do anything to the other.

Although Han Long occupied the advantage of his martial arts Realm being higher by a small Realm,

Chu Lin also occupied the advantage of having cultivated the Martial Skill Mountain Splitting Saber Technique to the Transcendent Realm.

Therefore, after this blow, Han Long and Chu Lin surprisingly fought to a draw.

After bursting out two blue attribute light spheres, the two each took a step back, and then fiercely fought together once again without yielding an inch.

As for Sun Xuan at this moment, he had already trodden the Ghost Shadow Step and rushed to Han Long's side.

The moment Han Long exchanged blows with Chu Lin, his heart could not help sinking uncontrollably.

This Chu Lin's strength was unexpectedly extraordinary in its power.

His martial arts Realm seemingly appeared to be only Early Stage Eighth Stage, but facing him, an Eighth Stage Middle Stage Martial Artist, he was still handling it with ease.

Even after a few head-on exchanges, he unexpectedly showed signs of being suppressed by the other party.

This wasn't all; the opponent actually had a helper present.

This helper, whose movement technique was so extraordinary, had an external training kung fu that reached the Transcendent Realm, comprehending a Transcendent skill.

His martial arts cultivation Realm seemingly appeared to be only Late Stage Ninth Stage, but his strength was definitely not that simple.

Seeing this, the inherently cautious Han Long couldn't help having a trace of intent to retreat in his heart.
