I forge immortality with spiritual treasures.

Chapter 114 Killing Enemies from Afar

A force that can lift the heavens and suppress the earth!

As soon as Qiao Honghu finished speaking, the large hand in the air suddenly formed a mysterious hand seal and pressed down again.

The gray-robed cultivator's heart skipped a beat. He immediately made hand seals and chanted incantations, raising the yellow light to meet the attack.

What was expected to be a devastating collision turned out to be a moment when time seemed to stand still.

The momentum of the Heaven and Earth Seal stopped, but the yellow light of the magic array remained unshaken, and Mount Ling stood firm as before.

The gray-robed cultivator's expression changed drastically in an instant.

It turned out that as soon as the yellow light of the magic array touched the Heaven and Earth Seal, he felt that the earth's energy suddenly solidified, and no matter how he tried to manipulate it, it wouldn't budge an inch!

"How can it be……?"

How did they manage to steal control of the earth's energy from someone else's magic array?
What kind of supernatural power is this? I've never heard of it before!

The gray-robed cultivator's heart skipped a beat, realizing something was wrong. He immediately swayed and tried to use magic to escape.

But after the previous move, how could Qiao Honghu tolerate it? He cast a spell, causing a hole to appear in the yellow light of the magic array.

Then, he pointed downwards and shouted loudly, "Go!"

Upon hearing this, the gray-robed cultivator's body trembled, and several beams of spiritual light flashed from his body. However, in the blink of an eye, they all disappeared. Then, he fell straight down to the ground, lifeless.

Upon seeing this scene, Ying Chan was slightly taken aback.

He had already witnessed Qiao Honghu's abilities, so dealing with a mere heretic shouldn't have been surprising.

This move was unlike any of the previous earth-shattering supernatural powers; it was completely silent, without even a fluctuation of spiritual energy, as if it were an unprovoked divine punishment.

Upon seeing this, Qiao Honghu smiled slightly again: "This is the Mysterious Void Formless Thunder, which is also one of the Eight Great Divine Powers."

Ying Chan pondered for a moment, then said, "Senior brother has already demonstrated three supernatural powers to me today. Could there be some deeper meaning behind it?"

"Hahaha! But that's not entirely true either."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Honghu laughed loudly: "What I did today was indeed to demonstrate my supernatural abilities to my junior brother, but it doesn't have any deeper meaning."

"It's just to give you a reference when you choose your supernatural powers in the future."

"The reference point when choosing supernatural powers?"

Ying Chan's heart stirred.

However, Qiao Honghu did not say anything more, and then waved his hand, "Let's go and see what the situation is like underground."

Having said that, he immediately fled into the mountains.

Seeing this, Ying Chan also suppressed his doubts and followed suit.

The two wandered around the sacred mountain and soon found a cave.

"It seems this is the place." Qiao Honghu landed, glanced inside, and said calmly, "Indeed, there is the presence of living beings."

The cave was deep and dark, with no bottom in sight, and no one knew what dangers lurked within.

However, neither of them was afraid.

Qiao Honghu remained calm and composed as he led Ying Chan into the cave. After walking less than a hundred feet, he narrowed his eyes slightly.

Ying Chan couldn't help but frown.

Blood, putrefaction, decay... all sorts of foul odors are drifting in from afar.

As the two quickened their pace, the foul stench grew stronger. Soon, they reached the end of their path, and a wide-open space opened up before them—

Indeed, the mountain's interior was now hollow.

What appeared before the two was a vast cavern, nearly a hundred feet in length and width, with a huge, bottomless pit in the center, like an abyss.

Surrounding the cave walls of this abyss are layers upon layers of cages, like anthills, and countless mine tunnels, winding and crisscrossing, stretching endlessly into the deep darkness.

Ying Chan's expression changed slightly. He walked closer to the abyss and saw that he could indeed see some figures in the cages. Most of them were curled up and motionless. If it weren't for the presence of some living people, it would almost look like a morgue.

The air was thick with the stench of food and filth, along with the strong smell of blood and rotting corpses, which inexplicably made one feel dizzy.

Ying Chan couldn't help but close his eyes, and when he opened them again, a rare glint of cold light appeared in them.

Upon arriving here, no trace of the heretical sects was found. However, the commotion earlier must have alerted the heretical sorcerers in the mountains, who may have been hiding in some corner and launched an attack, or they may have gone somewhere else.

After all, even a cunning rabbit has three burrows, and these heretical sorcerers probably wouldn't be unprepared either.

Ying Chan quickly grasped the gist of the matter.

Qiao Honghu didn't need him to enlighten him. He glanced around and said coldly, "Let's go!"

Before he finished speaking, he jumped down.

Ying Chan immediately followed, and the two of them plunged rapidly into the abyss, encountering even more shocking sights along the way.

Qiao Honghu didn't say a word. Before he even reached the bottom, he turned around and rushed into a mine tunnel. Ying Chan followed closely behind. After twisting and turning, the view suddenly opened up and the sky was bright again!

Looking around, they realized they had emerged from the ground again, but were no longer in the sacred mountain.

Upon seeing this, Ying Chan couldn't help but frown.

Qiao Honghu then made a spell and suddenly shouted, "Shh!"

Ying Chan felt that there were extremely faint auras in the air, which Qiao Honghu forcibly gathered and condensed.

"Is it a method similar to the Qi-Seeking Incantation?"

Ying Chan's heart stirred. Sure enough, Qiao Honghu captured these auras one by one and quickly used them to generate a sense of connection.

"Scattered and fled?"

He narrowed his eyes: "No, they're still not far away. Are they trying to lure the enemy into an ambush, or are they observing the situation?"

Perhaps both are true, but for the two of them, it is undoubtedly more agreeable.

"You're courting death." Qiao Honghu sneered and immediately called out, "Junior Brother!"

"There are twelve people's auras gathered here, most of whom are Xuan Guang cultivators. I will capture their auras and condense them into a Qi-Seeking Spell for you to pursue them."

"Kill as many as you can, and I will personally go and pursue the rest after I have eliminated the rest."

Ying Chan thought for a moment upon hearing this, and said, "Please entrust it to me, I would not dare to trouble you any further, senior brother."

"Oh?"

Qiao Honghu raised an eyebrow, immediately made a hand seal, and condensed streams of spiritual energy to give to Ying Chan.

Unexpectedly, Ying Chan took Ling Hua but did not rush to pursue. Instead, he flipped his hand, and a large ebony bow with thunder patterns appeared in his palm.

Qiao Honghu's heart stirred slightly, and he temporarily suppressed his intention to set off to observe Ying Chan's actions.

Seeing this, Ying Chan did not try to hide anything, and simply said, "Senior brother, watch my skills."

Having said that, he drew a ray of spiritual energy from the sky and guided it to the bow. Then, he held the bow with one arm and pulled it towards the void with the other!
collapse--

A sudden hum arose, the body arched wide, and golden light emanated from the divine patterns, flowing and intertwining with the intricate lightning patterns.

Instantly, a sharp arrowhead materialized from the bow.

"Go!"

Ying Chan let out a loud shout, and the arrow shot out, instantly piercing the air and shooting into the distance.

He fired an arrow, but it didn't stop there. He then drew a second spiritual light from the sky and fired it again.

Bang bang bang bang...

It hummed incessantly, nine times in a row.

Qiao Honghu looked up and saw streaks of arrow light, like streams of light, flying in all directions!

"Use my Qi-Searching Spell to lock onto the enemy's energy and kill them from afar?"

"I never expected that Junior Brother Ying would possess such a magical bow and such archery skills... truly marvelous!"

Qiao Honghu laughed loudly: "Good junior brother, excellent skills!"

"But I can't afford to be a step behind you!"

Before he finished speaking, a faint vortex of light appeared, and the person soared into the sky.
