Villain Master, my disciples all want to backstab me

Perhaps he could try to kill her while ensuring her body and soul were intact. Bai Yuan had taken a fancy to her body and wanted to use it as the first human monk's corpse in his collection, to prepare a side dish for the Netherworld Bone Flute.

And on the opposite side.

The middle-aged woman couldn't take her eyes off Bai Yuan the first time she saw him. Her relaxed expression disappeared, replaced by shock. "You?"

"……I?"

Bai Yuan was puzzled.

But the middle-aged woman had already shouted, "It's you?! How could it be you?! You're still alive... Why are you still alive, and still look so young?!"

"?"

Bai Yuan was stunned.

How...how come I can run into someone I know here?

If you're "young," that's true.

After all, she looked only about ten years old, completely like a little girl, so she was very "young". However...she had no impression of this middle-aged woman in her mind and had no idea where her surprise just now came from.

Just as Bai Yuan was secretly recalling this, Ye Shuang'er looked towards her and asked softly, "Master, who is this woman?"

“…Master?”

Upon hearing this address, the middle-aged woman shifted her gaze to Ye Shuang'er. Taking in her age and appearance, a subtle expression crossed her face. "You... are the remnant of the Jiang family who managed to escape back then? How come you're not dead? You're clearly the one who deserves death the most... Jixue and I are in this state now, all because of you!!"

"what!!!!"

"I want you to die!!!"

Accompanied by this scream.

A massive surge of blood-colored spiritual energy erupted from the middle-aged woman, and a massive storm rose behind her, sweeping the surrounding bone dust into the air. Then, with terrifying momentum, she charged directly towards Bai Yuan and his group! She raised her hand, and a massive blood-colored palm opened, clawing towards them!

——The Shentu family’s secret technique, [Blood Prison Soul Claw]!

At the same time, the white tiger beneath Bai Yuan exerted force on all four legs, and its massive body roared out!

boom--! !

A huge roar exploded!

At this moment, Bai Yuan's secret technique had already activated the White Tiger, causing its cultivation aura to surge, and it once again fell into a frenzy. Although this secret technique had already been used once in the "Dead Silence Forest," the effect of its second use in a short period of time was slightly less than the previous one, it still surpassed the threshold of the Ninth Stage of the Nascent Soul, reaching the same level as the middle-aged woman.

In addition, there are Ji Tingxue and Ye Shuang'er, both of whom are at the Nascent Soul stage.

Three against one, theoretically they should have the upper hand.

However, as one of the eight ancient clans, the Shentu family still has some special methods.

now.

The middle-aged woman gathered all her energy and pulled out a long bone whip from the void. The bone whip seemed to be made of human spines, covered with a thick layer of blood. It looked bloody and weird to the extreme. At this moment, when the middle-aged woman swung it, it burst out with an extremely powerful momentum.

Just as Ji Tingxue and Ye Shuang'er were about to step forward to help, they were forced back by the bone whip swung by him.

Although the bone whip did not touch the bodies, the clothes of the two men were torn and the skin underneath showed long and thin bloody wounds.

Only the white tiger relied on its animal-shaped totem to withstand the whip of the bone whip, roaring and rushing forward. It first slapped out with a heavy claw, but was blocked by the middle-aged woman who spun the bone whip into a huge blood-red net. Then it opened its bloody mouth and bit a link of the long whip. It suddenly shook its head, pulled the other party up from the ground, and threw it far away!

While in mid-air, the middle-aged woman suddenly opened her mouth and spat out a cloud of blood mist.

Nine white-bone centipedes emerged from the blood mist, each bearing a dark purple incantation on its back. Facing the wind, they pounced simultaneously at the white tiger like nine long snakes! It was surprisingly some extremely sinister witchcraft!

"Roar--!!"

The white tiger turned over and raised its claws, smashing two centipedes into pieces, and then broke one with its tail, but the broken centipede suddenly exploded into bone fragments all over the sky, wrapped in poisonous mist that blocked the vision.

In the thick poisonous fog, the sound of vertebrae crackling appeared again. It was the woman who pushed the bone whip in her hand into a straight line and stabbed it into the neck of the white tiger like a huge spear!

"Wow, such a pure poison skill..."

Seeing that the poisonous fog has spread.

Ye Shuang'er rushed over quickly as if she saw something delicious. The "innate Gu pattern" on her forehead lit up and she inhaled the poisonous smoke fiercely.

——After tasting the sweetness of the "Cold Nether Poison", she had a much better impression of this type of cultivator who used poison, and she wished that every enemy she encountered was of this type, so that her cultivation level could be quickly improved in a shorter period of time, so that she could do more things for her master.

Ji Tingxue held his breath and concentrated his energy, and surrounded her from the side. He wanted to take advantage of the chaos to launch a surprise attack, but he was noticed by the middle-aged woman. Then the tenth vertebra at the tip of the bone whip suddenly cracked, turning into another smaller bone whip, which returned to defend like a living snake and blocked Ji Tingxue's sword energy.

Then, the middle-aged woman took the opportunity to throw out three blood-red skulls, which grew to the size of houses in the wind, and green phosphorus ghost fire spewed out of their eye sockets!

For a moment, the situation was evenly matched!

"..."

From the beginning of this battle.

Bai Yuan did not take action, but stood not far from the battlefield, watching the battle.

She had already recognized the identity of this middle-aged woman——

The young talent of the Shentu family, Shentu Jialuo!

Twenty years ago, she, along with another powerful member of the Shentu Clan, Shentu Jixue, and several Blood Origin Sect cultivators, had pursued the three Jiang siblings to the vicinity of Cangwu County. Jiang Cheng fell behind and was captured by the Blood Origin Sect, while Jiang Rao was pursued by the two all the way to Cangwu County, where she encountered the "Blood Kite" as it was about to depart.

At that time, Xue Yuan was only an eighth-grade Nascent Soul cultivator and had not yet been promoted to the Divine Transformation stage.

But these two were also at the Nascent Soul stage. In addition, the previous incarnation was in the dark, so he was able to injure Shentu Jixue with a sneak attack and then kidnap Jiang Rao from before the two men's eyes.

This is indeed a deep connection.

No wonder Shentu Jialuo remembered it for so many years.

But the problem is...

Shentu Jialuo was clearly a "young talent," roughly the same age as his predecessor. Even if he wasn't cultivating the [Way of Time] but the [Way of Slaughter], he shouldn't have aged so much in just twenty years!

If we were to guess her age based on her appearance as a middle-aged woman and the average lifespan of a Yuanying realm cultivator... then she clearly looks like someone who is 2 to 300 years old!

This was also the reason why Bai Yuan didn't recognize Shentu Jialuo at first. After all, this person was very different from the one in his previous incarnation's memory.

If Bai Yuan had not matched the bone whip and "centipede witchcraft" she saw with the images in the remaining memories of her previous life, it would have been difficult for her to confirm this person's identity.

and so……

why?

Could it be... because of this wasteland? This white bone powder is able to absorb the monk's vitality without their knowledge, so that the longer they stay, the faster they age?!

----------

P.S. I had something to do during the day and came back late. I just finished writing this long chapter and posted it all at once~

Chapter 126: Karma Fire Burning Sky Sword vs. Blood Prison Soul-Guiding Technique!

At this moment when Bai Yuan's mind was racing.

The situation on the battlefield has changed rapidly.

First, Ye Shuang'er, after absorbing a large amount of poisonous smoke, broke through in the battle and used the "Innate Gu Pattern" to control two of the centipedes released by Shentu Jialuo. Together with herself and Ji Tingxue, they restrained the other four centipedes.

then.

The tea-leaf patterns on Baihu's forehead also lit up unconsciously.

As pale golden veins, like leaf veins, emerged around the tea leaf pattern, a stream of extremely pure spiritual energy nourished the white tiger's body, causing the ancient beast's aura, which had already been declining, to suddenly surge. A large amount of Gengjin evil energy rose from its body, transforming into bronze blade armor over ten feet long, colliding with the bone whip with an astonishingly sharp aura.

Every collision left clear marks on the bone whip.

The monstrous evil spirit carved out gullies all around, and then transformed into the shadows of thousands of golden swords and iron horses, charging out together with the white tiger!

Shentu Jialuo screamed repeatedly, stabbing his free whip-wielding hand into his own chest. With the sound of flesh tearing, a large amount of blood mixed with fragments of internal organs was drawn out, transforming into a large bloody mist. From this mist, the nine-headed, eighteen-armed Rakshasa suddenly emerged.

Another secret technique of the Shentu family!

As soon as the Rakshasa Dharma image took shape, it pounced towards the White Tiger with astonishing momentum!

Faced with this terrifying move.

The "king" pattern on the white tiger's forehead also shone brightly with golden light, and the whole body expanded again in an instant. The murderous aura gradually condensed into eighteen kinds of ferocious weapons on the basis of the original bronze blade armor - giant axes, long spears, Mo Dao, meteor hammers... It was also like a huge Dharma image, as the white tiger's body stepped up, it pounced towards Shentu Jialuo!

boom--! !

The eighteen kinds of vicious weapons collide with the Rakshasa Dharma!

For a moment, the earth shook!

Two equally ferocious auras collided with each other, and seven or eight of the eighteen kinds of ferocious weapons were broken and destroyed in a short moment, turning into tiny evil remnants that floated away; and half of the eighteen arms of the Rakshasa were twisted into blood mist.

Immediately afterwards, the white tiger roared and pounced on its opponent, biting him to the ground. The two figures tumbled with terrifying murderous aura, instantly causing the ground for hundreds of feet to surge like waves! A large amount of bone powder splashed high, then was crushed into powder in an instant, as if a red and white mist rose above the vast wasteland!

At this time, Shentu Jialuo still wanted to gather the blood mist around him again and form a formation to defend against the enemy.

But the action was only halfway through when it was forcibly crushed by the evil spirit of the White Tiger.

Then all the remaining fierce soldiers were compressed and gathered by the White Tiger, condensed into the shape of a Fang Tian Hua Ji, and with power close to the state of transformation, slashed towards the Dharma image of Rakshasa and the neck of Shentu Jialuo who was wrapped in the Dharma image!

This move is close to the level of the Spiritual Transformation Realm!

It seemed that the Rakshasa Dharmakaya was showing signs of retreat!

Suddenly, a black sword light was swung out from the side, and it rushed to the front with indescribable speed, colliding with the painted halberd driven by Baihu, causing the latter to tilt to the side an inch!

This deviation caused the Fang Tian Hua Ji to fail to cut off the neck of Luosha Fashang as expected, but only created a crack, and the same wound appeared on Shentu Jialuo's body.

Then, using the black sword light to restrain her, she broke free from the White Tiger's restraints and transformed into red smoke again, moving away. At the same time, she wiped her palm and healed the wound on her neck.

However, the wound on the Rakshasa's image still exists and obviously cannot be repaired in such a short time.

Next to her.

A male cultivator wearing a black robe and looking as old as a skeleton out of a coffin suddenly appeared and stood in front of Shentu Jialuo, with the same "Shen" family crest on his sleeves.

——It was another “elite monster” in this white wasteland, Shentu Jixue!

now.

This Shentu tribe member also stared at Bai Yuan intently at the beginning of their meeting. His already cloudy eyes were filled with the viciousness of an eagle:

"It's you!!"

Although the "Blood Kite" in his memory wasn't in its Lolita form, the various forms of the White Kite were essentially all magnified in equal proportions. Especially in terms of bone structure, even after undergoing several transformations through the "Blood Essence Heart Meteorite Art," there hadn't been much change, so he still recognized it at a glance.

"Ah, yes, it's me... Is this all you Shentu family members can repeat?"

Bai Yuan sighed and was too lazy to reminisce with these two guys who looked a little abnormal. He just gently pressed his palm on the hilt of the [Chixiao] sword at his waist.

The moment she remembered Shentu Jialuo, she also remembered Shentu Jixue.

As far as I can remember, this person had already reached the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage twenty years ago, making him much stronger than both "Blood Kite" and Shentu Jialuo at the time. That was why "Blood Kite" had chosen him as a target for a surprise attack and had managed to injure him immediately.

——After all, if he chose to attack the weaker Shentu Jialuo, then even if he was injured, "Blood Kite" would still not be a match for Shentu Jixue, and there would be no way of snatching him away from the opponent.

And now...

This Nascent Soul cultivator, originally around 150 years old, now looked incredibly aged, his appearance even more shocking than Shentu Jialuo's. Furthermore, his entire demeanor seemed insane, and he was clearly insane.

However, his aura had been rising steadily in the brief moment since he appeared, seemingly already reaching the threshold of the Spiritual Transformation Realm. However, his foundation didn't seem as solid as Qing Lingzi's true Spiritual Transformation Realm, rather like duckweed floating in a lake.

This is...

Is it a last glimmer of hope before the end?

In any case, since this person has already shown up and revealed such a level of cultivation, Bai Yuan's original plan to deal with one first and then take her corpse to find another one has to be declared bankrupt.

The only solution now is to put all our efforts into getting rid of them in one go before we think about other things!

"I have a question for you. If you don't want to answer, it's okay to pretend you didn't hear it."

Bai Yuan stared intently at the two members of the Shentu family and said in a deep voice, "Have you ever calculated how long you have been here? I mean in actual terms."

——From the outside world’s timeline, these two people disappeared about twenty years ago, which should be correct.

But it was hard to say how they felt about time. Bai Yuan was a little unsure whether their current state was due to something draining away their vitality, or if there was something wrong with the flow of time in this place.

The answer to this question will determine the subsequent action plans of Bai Yuan, Ye Shuang'er and others, and must be found out somehow.

but……

The two Shentu people obviously did not respond to her meaning.

Shentu Jialuo had already re-opened his Rakshasa Dharmakaya, glaring fiercely at Bai Yuan and the nearby White Tiger, ready to continue the fight. Meanwhile, Shentu Jixue stared directly at Bai Yuan, his mind seemingly unbalanced, his sinister gaze frightening anyone.

"Don't you want to talk?"
