Stepping onto the path to immortality, it all begins with buying the daughter of a disgraced officia

Whoosh!

In the critical moment, Su Mu suddenly moved, his feet shifting like a phantom, so fast that double images appeared.

When he reappeared, he was already in front of Tie Niu, and he swung his sword fiercely at the attacking ghost hand!

"What?!"

Ghost Hand's eyes narrowed suddenly. He never expected Su Mu to be so fast. Before he could even react, Su Mu had already appeared in front of him!

This is precisely the movement technique of the Five Animal Frolics, the Monkey Play Thousand Illusions Flash, which can mobilize the spiritual energy in the body and gather it in the legs, greatly increasing speed. When cultivated to the peak, it can even make one soar through the clouds and travel ten thousand miles a day!

Ghost Hand was filled with shock and rage. In his haste, he activated his blood and qi to form a shield in an attempt to resist the attack, but it shattered inch by inch the moment the sword light touched it.

"No--"

He roared and tried to retreat, but the pressure of the spiritual energy emanating from Su Mu locked him in place, rendering him unable to move.

Su Mu's eyes were as cold as ice, and his sword strike gained even more power. The tip of his sword, like a shooting star chasing the moon, pierced straight through the Ghost Hand's throat.

quiet--

After a long silence, the remaining two leaders of the Green Snake Society glared angrily: "Ghost Hand!"

Not far away, Qingzhu's expression also turned serious when she saw this scene. She obviously did not expect that Su Mu would have another trump card!

"Damn it! Let's retreat!"

With such losses, continuing like this might mean certain death here; retreat is the only option!

No sooner had Qingzhu finished speaking than Su Mu's voice followed, "Want to leave? This old man hasn't agreed yet!"

"Does Your Excellency truly intend to wage war against the Green Serpent Society to the death?!" Qingzhu spoke in a low voice, clearly intending to intimidate others with her power. "If Your Excellency is interested in this Jade-Eyed Serpent King, we are happy to offer it to you, as a way of making friends. What do you say?"

As she spoke, Qingzhu narrowed her eyes, watching Su Mu's expression and movements, ready to make a move at any moment.

Su Mu's tone remained calm: "Heh, sorry, I don't like making friends with animals!"

"you--"

Qingzhu's face twitched, her anger surging even more fiercely. "You really think you can kill me!"

After saying that.

She raised her hand and grasped the snake staff that had been flying into her hand. With a sudden movement, she raised the staff, and the blue-eyed snake head at the top of the staff suddenly shone with a strange, eerie green light. As the snake's tongue flickered, an aura of sinister magic swept across the entire area.

"This...this is a forbidden secret technique of the Green Snake Society?! No good, let's go!"

Upon seeing this, Kuangdao's expression changed drastically. His long sword clattered to the ground, and without a second thought, he turned and fled.

As one of the leaders of the Green Snake Society, how could he not know the terrifying nature of the secret technique used by Qingzhu? Sacrificing the lifeblood of living people to enhance cultivation—his guild leader practiced this method, requiring three hundred boys and girls every month...

Bloodhand was also terrified and tried to escape by scrambling and rolling, but was firmly locked in place by the invisible suction force emanating from the snake staff.

"No! Fourth Master, we are..."

Without a trace of pity in her eyes, Qingzhu made a hand seal, and the patterns on her snake staff lit up. The remaining henchmen of the Green Snake Society were instantly dragged over by a tremendous force.

"Hmph! A bunch of useless trash. Did you really think you had any weight? You were just a few feeder nurtured by the guild leader. Today, you sacrifice yourselves for me, helping me break through to a higher realm. You can be considered to have died a worthy death!"

She shouted sternly, activating her secret technique at full power. Streams of pale red blood were forcibly drawn from the seven orifices of Mad Blade, Blood Hand, and the others, flowing like snakes into the Serpent Staff before circulating into her body.

"You'll die a horrible death!"

Mad Blade's wailing was shrill and ear-piercing, but his body withered away at a visible speed, his skin clinging to his bones, and he soon became a withered corpse with a pale face, collapsing to the ground with a thud.

Bloodhand struggled even more fiercely, but only lost more blood and energy, and soon followed in Mad Blade's footsteps.

The others tried to escape, but none could escape Qingzhu's grasp. Soon, the dried corpses lay scattered about, and a chilling wind swept by, creating a terrifying and eerie atmosphere.

After absorbing everyone's blood and energy, Qingzhu's spiritual power surged, his aura rose steadily, and the spiritual energy within his body surged wildly, breaking through the shackles and reaching the fifth level of the Qi Condensation Realm!

However, forcibly using the secret method to break through came at a great cost. More twisted bluish-black snake-shaped patterns appeared on her neck and arms, with pale green venom seeping from between the patterns. The toxins in her body became increasingly deep, and even the whites of her eyes were stained with a layer of eerie green.

She raised her hand to wipe away the black blood that had spilled from the corner of her mouth, slamming her serpent staff down heavily in her hand, causing fine cracks to appear in the ground. Her tone was sinister as she said, "Old man, I sacrificed the lifeblood of my subordinates to break through to this realm; today you will pay for your debt in blood!"

At this moment, although her aura surged, she was like a venomous beast out of control, and her sinister aura was nauseating.

Su Mu stood with his hands behind his back, watching everything indifferently. His fingertips lightly rested on the hilt of his sword, and his tone was completely calm: "Sacrificing subordinates for temporary strength is nothing but a heretical method. Fifth level of Qi Condensation Realm? In my eyes, they are still no match for you."

As soon as he finished speaking, his spiritual energy began to circulate quietly, and the sound of a sword rang out faintly. His cultivation level was also completely exposed at this moment!

"Qi Condensation Level 5?"

Qingzhu had never imagined Su Mu possessed such strength. Her dark green hair billowed out, and her expression grew increasingly crazed. "In that case, you too shall become my nourishment!"
