← Back to novel Renegade Immortal: 10,000× Returns for Taking Disciples

#169 · 169 of 178

Hearing this, even with Elder Cao’s strength as a Rank-2 powerhouse, a layer of fine sweat couldn’t help but seep out from his forehead.

Then he stood there with his head lowered, pretending as if he hadn't heard anything.

Seeing this appearance of Elder Cao, the frantic look on the Sixth Prince's face slowly receded, and a trace of desolation emerged in the Sixth Prince's eyes.

"Let us go, Mr. Cao. I know what I am doing. Whether it is me or that good second brother of mine, neither of us will do something like a snipe and a clam fighting each other, allowing a third party to reap the benefit."

"That second brother of mine is much smarter than you imagine!"

After the words fell, the Sixth Prince took the lead to stand up, and then strode towards the direction of the Qinghe County Demon Suppression Guard.

As the Sixth Prince moved, a large number of guards hidden in the dark also followed instantly.

A short while after the Sixth Prince left, the restaurant that was just bustling with activity instantly became desolate.

Seeing this scene, Elder Cao couldn't help but sigh softly in his heart, and then chased in the direction of the Sixth Prince.

Meanwhile, within the Qinghe County Demon Suppression Guard, Sun Xuan had already started fighting with Monk Mingdeng.

"Crime-Destroying Seal!"

At this moment, a soft shout was heard from Sun Xuan's mouth, and a magic seal wreathed with black and white Qi instantly emerged from Sun Xuan's palm.

Then it fiercely slapped towards the golden fist smashed over by Monk Mingdeng.

"Clang!"

In an instant, a sound resembling a strike on a golden bell suddenly rang out.

Under the bombardment of Sun Xuan's Crime-Destroying Seal, Monk Mingdeng erupted with a huge roaring sound like a golden bell struck by immense force.

Moreover, the golden light on Monk Mingdeng's body, under the bombardment of Sun Xuan's Crime-Destroying Seal, violently fluctuated like water ripples.

However, the string of Buddhist beads floating above Monk Mingdeng's head was truly worthy of being a true spirit artifact ranked on the chaos myriad spirits ranking.

At the moment when the golden light on Monk Mingdeng's body fluctuated like water ripples under Sun Xuan's bombardment and was almost shattered by a single palm strike,

an even more intense golden light suddenly erupted from that string of Buddhist beads, and then, like flood waves, massively poured into Monk Mingdeng's body.

Under the infusion of this golden light, Monk Mingdeng's Golden Buddha Body also immediately stabilized.

It even became even more profound, and an aura of golden immortality emanated even more densely from Monk Mingdeng's body.

However, after Sun Xuan's Crime-Destroying Seal bombarded Monk Mingdeng's body, although Monk Mingdeng was protected by the golden Buddhist beads and his internal organs suffered some shock, it was not a big problem.

But Gu Ren and his group of subordinates suffered terrible misfortune once again.

Circles of shock ripples were seen rapidly spreading outward from Monk Mingdeng's body.

These were the recoiling shock ripples formed after Sun Xuan's Crime-Destroying Seal bombarded Monk Mingdeng's body.

These circles of recoiling shock ripples contained huge energy fluctuations.

The surrounding walls, bricks, and houses of the Town Demon Guard that were closer all turned into dust under the shock of these energy-laden ripples and scattered all around.

As for Gu Ren and his group of subordinates, because they were affected by the aftermath of the battle just now and suffered not-light injuries, they were relatively far from the battlefield this time.

But they were still within the attack range of these circles of shock ripples.

Although the power of these circles of shock ripples had weakened by the time they reached Gu Ren and the others, it was still not something this group of people could resist.

Looking at the energy ripples vibrating toward him, Gu Ren's expression changed drastically in an instant.

The guards beside him, the instant they saw these shock ripples bombarding toward them, had expressions on their faces as ugly as if they had eaten dead flies one by one.

Originally, among this group of guards, a few Rank-5 Realm experts still had a chance to dodge.

But if they dodged, Gu Ren, a mere Rank-7 Martial Artist who had already been severely injured previously, would basically be dead for sure if he took another hit like this.

Therefore, out of helplessness, including those few Rank-5 Realm experts, not a single person retreated.

Gritting their teeth one by one, they ran in front of Gu Ren, unleashed their signature Martial Skills, and bombarded and resisted the continuously fluctuating energy ripples.

"Puff, puff, puff!"

Hearing sounds of vomiting blood, these Martial Artists blocking in front of Gu Ren were all injured once again under this wave of energy.

Under the desperate resistance of these subordinate guards, Gu Ren, who was protected in the back, finally suffered no harm and escaped this fatal calamity.

Looking at the pale and heavily injured appearance of his subordinates, Gu Ren's expression immediately became even uglier.

"Retreat farther back!"

After his retinue of guards hard-endured this wave of energy ripple attacks, Gu Ren gave the order again with an extremely ugly expression.

The reason why these energy ripples possessed such great power was because Sun Xuan at this moment had already used his full strength against Monk Mingdeng.

And because of the blessing of that string of golden Buddhist beads, although Monk Mingdeng's combat power did not experience an overly formidable increase, Monk Mingdeng's defense force surged by geometric multiples.

That layer of golden, immortal, indestructible body, even under Sun Xuan's full-force bombardment, unexpectedly did not shatter directly.

It even rebounded all of the vast majority of the power contained within Sun Xuan's Crime-Destroying Seal.

Therefore, this was also the reason why those circles of ripples resembling a golden bell vibrating contained such great power.

However, upon seeing this scene, the Battle Intent on Sun Xuan's face grew even higher.

Previously fighting with this Monk Mingdeng, Sun Xuan always dared not use his full strength, fearing that with a moment of carelessness, he would beat this Monk Mingdeng to death.

In that case, Sun Xuan would no longer be able to obtain a large number of attribute light spheres by beating Monk Mingdeng up.

Because of this, when Sun Xuan made a move, he inevitably found his hands and feet tied.

But now Monk Mingdeng had put a tortoise shell on himself. In this way, when Sun Xuan made his moves, he didn't have so many scruples.

However, at this moment, Sun Xuan was also secretly surprised in his heart by the defensive power of this string of Buddhist beads.

This true spirit artifact capable of ranking on the chaos myriad spirits ranking was truly extraordinary in power, and the defense force it formed could not be broken even by Sun Xuan, whose Martial Dao Realm had already reached the Late Stage of Rank-3 for a time.

But Sun Xuan was not in a rush. The golden light of these Buddhist beads could block his bombardment, but Monk Mingdeng, who was situated inside, was not completely unaffected either.

At least under Sun Xuan's palm strike just now, Monk Mingdeng's internal organs still suffered some vibration.

Thinking of this, the black and white light on Sun Xuan's body grew even more intense, swirling rapidly around Sun Xuan's body in circles like Reincarnation.

"Old bald donkey, let me take a good look whether this layer of tortoise shell on your body can really protect you!"

As soon as Sun Xuan's words fell, his entire body immediately became like a phantom, rapidly arriving in front of Monk Mingdeng, who had just steadied his posture.

Then without a word of nonsense, he fiercely bombarded his body with full strength.

"Clang, clang, clang!"

Sound waves resembling the beating of giant bells continuously erupted from Monk Mingdeng's body.

Palm prints one after another also continuously manifested from Monk Mingdeng's gilded-like body.

Under this storm-like bombardment, Monk Mingdeng simply had no power to fight back.

He could only urge the Buddhist beads with all his might, cover his body with golden light, and then use his own body to desperately resist the palm prints continuously bombarding him.

Although the golden light covering Monk Mingdeng's body constantly shook under Sun Xuan's full-force bombardment, under the coverage of the golden Buddhist beads' light, it could never be broken by Sun Xuan.

However, although this layer of golden defense could not be broken by Sun Xuan, Monk Mingdeng, who was covered by the golden light, was not having an easy time right now either.

Because under Sun Xuan's continuous bombardment, this layer of golden light wrapping around Monk Mingdeng, although not shattered, was constantly changing its form.

And Monk Mingdeng, situated under the coverage of the golden light, was like a lump of gold constantly being kneaded, continually changing his shape.

Under such ravaging, that string of Buddhist beads was completely unscathed, but Monk Mingdeng, who was situated inside, was already unable to hold on anymore under the torture of his body deformation.

Meanwhile, Sun Xuan was having more and more fun the more he fought.

Monk Mingdeng, wrapped by the golden defensive light, was just like a sturdy sandbag, constantly being kneaded round and flat under Sun Xuan's hands.

Gu Ren and his gang of subordinates who had hidden far away couldn't help but panic in their hearts after seeing Monk Mingdeng's powerless appearance under Sun Xuan's hands.

The strongest among them in strength was Monk Mingdeng.

But now, after Monk Mingdeng had used his strongest Buddhist beads, he still had no power to resist under Sun Xuan.

This caused Gu Ren and the others to feel somewhat panicked.

Once Monk Mingdeng died at Sun Xuan's hands, their fate probably wouldn't be much better either.

Just at this moment, a subordinate beside Gu Ren spoke to Gu Ren with a somewhat ugly expression:

"Young Master, Great Master Mingdeng looks like he won't last much longer.

Once Great Master Mingdeng is defeated and killed, then we are very likely to encounter danger.

How about taking advantage of the fact that Great Master Mingdeng is still entangled with that person, we leave first?

After returning to the Gu Family, we can then summon experts to avenge Great Master Mingdeng!"

This subordinate of Gu Ren spoke prettily, but in reality, he just wanted to take Gu Ren and run away.

As for bringing people later to avenge Monk Mingdeng, that was basically an impossible matter.

At this moment, Sun Xuan's strength had already been understood by the people of the Gu Family. For an expert of this level, even if the Gu Family wanted to deal with him, they would have to carefully weigh whether it was worth it.

To go against an expert of this level for a deceased Monk Mingdeng was clearly impossible for a Family that prioritized everything around interests.

If Gu Ren and the others left, this matter would most likely end up unsettled, and the Gu Family might even produce benefits to recruit Sun Xuan.

And Monk Mingdeng, who was currently being violently beaten like a sandbag by Sun Xuan, would most likely die in vain.

As for this matter, although Gu Ren was dissolute, having survived in a large Family for so long, Gu Ren could still see this little thing clearly.

But at this moment, Gu Ren was simply unwilling.

Gu Ren's eyes stared fixedly at the battle in the arena, and a different thought suddenly arose in Gu Ren's mind.

"Wait a bit longer, don't rush!"

After this thought rose in Gu Ren's mind, he felt increasingly that it was possible.

Then, under the domination of this thought, Gu Ren's eyeballs kept rolling, and he casually fobbed off the subordinates and Family servants beside him, saying:

After hearing Gu Ren's words, these Family servants of the Gu Family, although extremely terrified of Sun Xuan in the arena,

since Gu Ren didn't let them run, they didn't dare to abandon Gu Ren and run away without authorization.

Just like that, amidst the continuous clanging sounds, countless shock ripples continually erupted from Monk Mingdeng's violently beaten body.

The surrounding buildings had long been destroyed beyond recognition under the shock ripples.

All the Martial Artists within the Town Demon Guard had basically fled this place by now and hidden themselves.

Even Chu Lin had long since left this place with a pale face.

After all, the battle at this moment had long subverted the cognition of these ordinary Town Demon Guards.

Under this kind of battle, they didn't even have the qualification to stay behind and act as cannon fodder.

Merely getting close would result in being bombarded by the aftermath of the battle until not even dregs were left.

Therefore, for these ordinary Town Demon Guards, running away early and hiding was the best choice.

Meanwhile, Monk Mingdeng, under Sun Xuan's continuous bombardment, had already reached the end of his tether.

Although the golden light transmitted by the Buddhist beads on Monk Mingdeng's body resisted and dispersed most of Sun Xuan's attack power,

still a portion would penetrate through the golden light and injure Monk Mingdeng's internal organs, and the golden light attached to Monk Mingdeng's body, under Sun Xuan's powerful attack force, was still constantly deforming.

This resulted in Monk Mingdeng, wrapped by the golden light, continuously suffering injuries under this deformation.

Once or twice, Monk Mingdeng could barely endure it.

But under Sun Xuan's uninterrupted and heavy bombardment, Monk Mingdeng, currently wrapped in golden light, was already battered and exhausted in every way.

Fresh blood constantly overflowed from the corners of Monk Mingdeng's mouth, and his entire body, under Sun Xuan's bombardment, went from initial excruciating pain to feeling somewhat numb now.

The scene in front of his eyes was also constantly blurring, and only the Buddhist beads above his head were still automatically extracting the true essence within Monk Mingdeng's body, providing a steady stream of golden light defense power to Monk Mingdeng.

Unfortunately, the gap between Monk Mingdeng's own strength and Sun Xuan's was simply too large. Even Sun Xuan was somewhat amazed by the defense power blessed by these golden Buddhist beads.

Yet it still failed to protect Monk Mingdeng completely. Under Sun Xuan's continuous and uninterrupted strikes, Monk Mingdeng had already become on the verge of death.

Under this circumstance, Monk Mingdeng finally woke up from his greed at this moment.

At the very last moment, Monk Mingdeng, whose oil was almost exhausted and lamp was drying up, revealed a trace of regret in his eyes.

"Amitabha, sigh, this poor monk has ultimately died under this greed!"

Hearing the words full of remorse from Monk Mingdeng's mouth, the actions in Sun Xuan's hands did not stop at all.
