Chapter 312: Outrage!!
A moment later, Zhao Yanzi and Hao Ren stepped on two good quality white jade swords and left the small valley.
Fatigued after its flight from First Heaven to Fifth Heaven, Little White rested in Hao Ren's necklace.
Before she lost her dragon core, Zhao Yanzi had once reached Zhen-level. With her experience, she quickly mastered the basic flight spell after some practice and thus had no problem flying on the sword.
Before, Zhao Guang was afraid that Zhao Yanzi would make trouble and didn't teach her how to fly on a sword. Now in Fifth Heaven, she was no longer restricted by that rule, and her cultivation strength of the Qi Refinement Realm was enough for her to control the sword with ease. She was delighted that she could finally fly by herself.
She summoned all her nature essence and flew fast while Hao Ren flew alongside her at a measured speed. According to the human cultivation system, Hao Ren was now a Core Formation Realm cultivator while Zhao Yanzi was only a Qi Refinement Realm cultivator. With the big difference in the realms between them, Hao Ren could catch up with Zhao Yanzi easily.
They flew on the swords at a speed of 30 kilometers per hour, only a bit faster than biking. However, the sensation of flying and controlling the direction and speed of the sword was far cooler than riding a bicycle.
In the picturesque scenery, Zhao Yanzi laughed while riding on the sword.
Flying steadily by her side, Hao Ren smiled as he heard her laughter. After all, despite her identity as the Princess of the East Ocean Dragon Clan, Zhao Yanzi was still a middle school girl.
She was able to escape from the mountains of homework and fly freely on a sword; how could she not be happy?
The two swords moved forward slowly between the high mountains while a light breeze touched their faces. Wasn't this the life of celestial couples?
"Hao Ren, look!" Excited, Zhao Yanzi grabbed his arm and pointed ahead to the right.
Among the mountains, several palaces and buildings stood on the mountaintops with paths of stone steps leading up to them.
Obviously, it was a big cultivation sect on Fifth Heaven.
The moment they saw the buildings and towers, they had trespassed the territory of the sect. Hao Ren didn't know array formations and was oblivious to the fact that the moment they entered the territory, the defensive array formation alarmed the cultivators in the sect. Zhao Yanzi had just finished her exclamation when about 60 cultivators with swords surrounded Hao Ren and her.
The cultivators were each standing on a sword while holding another sword for attacking. However, their swords were far inferior compared to Su Han's white jade sword.
Zhao Yanzi was deflated when she realized that they were surrounded. She had hoped to sneak into the sect's Scroll Tower or Elixir Palace, not to steal treasures but to experience the excitement of an adventure.
However, before they could get close, they were surrounded.
The leaders of the group were two Core Formation Realm cultivators.
This sect was not a leading sect on Fifth Heaven, but it was passable with seven Core Formation Realm cultivators as elders. Two Core Formation Realm cultivators and tens Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators were more than enough to deal with a Core Formation Realm cultivator and a weak Qi Refinement Realm cultivator.
Judging from the weird clothes Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi had, they guessed that these two intruders might have many treasures on them. Just the two swords they were flying on looked to be of good quality. Anyway, the intruders would be killed for their trespassing, and their treasures would be their loot... The two Core Formation Realm cultivators were pleased with this prospect.
"We are elders from White Sand Sect. These are our identifications!" Looking at the glances on these cultivators' faces, Zhao Yanzi knew that they had evil schemes on their minds. She took out the wooden badge of 'Elder Yuxin' and tossed it at them.
She lied without blushing.
"White Sand Sect!" A cultivator caught the wooden badge and looked at it before glancing at Zhao Yanzi in suspicion. He handed it to a cultivator beside him.
That cultivator studied the wooden badge and nodded. "It's indeed the identity badge of the White Sand Sect."
Zhao Yanzi pursed her lips. "Then, what are you waiting for? Let us go!"
Although she didn't know anything about the White Sand Sect, she guessed that the sect wasn't a tiny one since they were brave enough to send scouts to First Heaven. She was quite smart.
The cultivator curled his lips and smiled. Putting the wooden badge into his pocket, he drew out his longsword from his back and said, "However, little girl, we are the White Sand Sect..."
"Uh..." Zhao Yanzi froze.
Swoosh... The other cultivators all drew their swords.
Including the swords under their feet, almost 100 swords flashed in front of Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi.
Before Hao Ren could explain, over twenty cultivators pounced on him!
The swords pierced forward, and each of them stabbed toward his vital organs!
They were trying to kill him!
Faced with a group attack, even a Core Formation Realm cultivator didn't have the time to fight back!
However, Hao Ren was not a typical Core Formation Realm cultivator. Hua... Like fireworks, Hao Ren emitted 80 five-colored sword energies which formed a circle with a diameter of half a meter around him.
The first five long swords that were stabbing at him were all chopped into two halves.
With Hao Ren's personality, even if he knew that the two captives this morning were human cultivators from Fifth Heaven, he would have let them go. However, he had just entered the White Sand Sect's territory unwittingly and thus became the target of slaughter.
However, he wouldn't stand there and let them kill him.
"He's a Core Formation Realm cultivator! We must be careful! Build the array formation!" The leading cultivator lifted his huge sword and yelled, "Kill him, and we can share the stuff in his storage bag!"
As a mid-tier Core Formation Realm cultivator, he was sure that he could defeat Hao Ren. However, why would he do that when he had so many disciples with him?
The disciples who were in the Foundation Establishment Realm were motivated. After all, the storage bag of a Core Formation Realm cultivator would contain many treasures. By receiving one of them, a low-level disciple would be excited for half a year!
Elixirs, dharma treasures, and cultivation techniques!
Regardless of Hao Ren's sharp sword energies, the remaining cultivators swarmed up.
"Don't kill the female cultivator! We can use her as a cauldron!" The other Core Formation Realm cultivator said.
In cultivation, some male cultivators couldn't make any more breakthroughs after they had reached certain stages. Instead, they would have intercourse with female cultivators and take the yin energy from the female bodies. Those female cultivators were called cauldrons.
It was a common practice in Fifth and Sixth Heaven. A lot of female cultivators became objects to the male cultivators, and some of them were even killed by male cultivators in order for the latter to increase their realm more.
Therefore, these words breached Hao Ren's bottom line!
He shot out a white sword energy from his fingertip and pierced the mouth of the cultivator who uttered the outrageous order!
Instantly, the 80 sword energies condensed into a huge grey sword, smashing away the dozens of Foundation Establishment Realm disciples.
Hualaa... Their swords dropped on the ground, and these weak cultivators fell and cried in pain.
Zhao Yanzi didn't hear what that cultivator yelled and thus didn't understand Hao Ren's sudden anger. However, she found the angry Hao Ren quite cool. The huge grey sword energy shattered and transformed into slim sword energies before flying around Hao Ren like bees and butterflies.
At this moment, Hao Ren stood on the sword like a sword god, and no one dared to get close to him. His sword energies also surrounded Zhao Yanzi, and the sword energies would pierce anyone who dared to get close to her from all directions!
"You dared to fight back!?" The mid-tier Core Formation Realm cultivator didn't expect Hao Ren to be so fierce. However, he observed carefully and was sure that Hao Ren was indeed a low-tier Core Formation Realm cultivator.
He took out an iron fan and swung it at Hao Ren.
From his perspective, Hao Ren's fierceness came from his powerful dharma treasure. Once he killed Hao Ren, he would get that dharma treasure!
He unleashed his full force!
The iron fan shot out three black light beams which instantly broke the sword energies around Hao Ren.
A large number of Foundation Establishment Realm disciples swarmed out, and the rest of the Core Formation Realm elders, who were guarding the great hall, also rushed out at the news.
Hao Ren's appearance drew out all the people in the sect!
"Kill..."
More than 200 cultivators flew toward Hao Ren with overwhelming murderous spirits, and all kinds of dharma treasures were thrown at him.
Zhao Yanzi didn't expect that they would cause such an upheaval. She was about to pull Hao Ren away and escape when the three black light beams suddenly changed course and pulled her from Hao Ren's side.
The black beams were pulling her toward the direction of the Core Formation Realm cultivator who was eager to catch her and search her!
According to their traditions, anyone who caught the enemies would get their storage bags. Of course, he didn't want to kill such a beautiful female cultivator!
Seeing the celestial-looking and sword-riding cultivators behaving like thugs, Hao Ren was enraged; he would never allow them to touch Zhao Yanzi!
A grey sword energy slashed forward with crackling noises, and the three black light beams were instantly broken.
Hundun godly lightning was capable of breaking all five elements!
Zhao Yanzi lost her balance on the sword and fell on to the mountain. Fortunately, she fell onto a pile of grasses and didn't bump onto the rocks.
"You're surrounded. Surrender!" The newly arrived Core Formation Realm cultivators threw a ton of dharma treasures at Hao Ren.
With all his attention focused on rescuing Zhao Yanzi, Hao Ren opened himself up to the attacks which all struck his body.
However, his body had been tempered by heavenly lightning, and he withstood the strikes of the dharma treasures without instantly falling dead!
Of course, another reason was that the dharma treasures these cultivators used were not advanced.
Seeing that Hao Ren was still alive after being struck by so many dharma treasures, the handful of Core Formation Realm cultivators and the many Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators were all convinced that Hao Ren had great treasures on him, and they wanted to kill him to get the treasures even more.
The second wave of dharma treasures was thrown at Hao Ren.
This time, even the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators joined their elders, and all kinds of dharma treasures shot toward Hao Ren alongside hundreds of swords.
Bang!
All the acupoints in Hao Ren's body opened at once!
The sword energies hidden in them shot out like raindrops!
Tens of thousands of swords!
The Core Formation Realm elders had never seen so many sword energies in their lives!
Metal, wood, water, fire and wood-elemental sword energies formed an array!
Two Dragons Array Formation! The dense sword energies circled around each other like Yin and Yang of Tai Chi, freezing time and space!
Bang! One hundred sixty sword energies instantly shattered the dharma treasures from the Core Formation Realm cultivators!
At this critical moment, Hao Ren suddenly gained the understanding of the level 2 sword array formation—Two Dragons Array Formation!
The nature essence surged up and swallowed everything!
Two forces pushed one another, forming a reverse tornado which tore open the surrounding space!
The two Core Formation Realm cultivators who had rushed over and tried to take Hao Ren's dharma treasures were instantly sent flying by the wave of the sword energies!
The overwhelming force of Two Dragons Array Formation was far greater than the One-line Snake Array Formation!
More than 200 Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators tried to form an array to counter the force, but the force was so powerful that even Hao Ren couldn't control it, let alone the weak cultivators!
Crack! Crack... The surrounding trees broke one by one while the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators were blown out like pieces of paper.
Hao Ren took one step forward, and the group of cultivators scrambled to flee. At this moment, flying on a sword was suicidal while running down the mountain gave them a chance of surviving.
The release of 160 sword energies broadened the meridians in Hao Ren's body. New openings appeared in his dragon core, and there were now 65 openings in total!
Gusts of wind blew up Hao Ren's hair, giving him a magnificent and invincible look.
Hao Ren walked to Zhao Yanzi's side and pulled her up gently.
Zhao Yanzi felt some numbness in her palm. When she looked up, she saw traces of lightning flash across his eyes.
Hao Ren raised his right hand and pointed out one finger.
The circling 160 sword energies traveled along his arm and shot toward the grand palace across the valley.
Boom!
The magnificent Cultivation Teaching Palace was shattered into a pile of debris by the violent sword energies!
It must be noted that the Cultivation Teaching Palace had four overlapping defense array formations protecting it!
A tiny sword energy turned back and pierced a hole in the hands of the Core Formation Realm cultivator who had tried to grab Zhao Yanzi.
Under the group attack, the two swords Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi got earlier lost their essence. Therefore, Hao Ren transformed his sword energies into a huge sword, lifting him and Zhao Yanzi.
His essences condensed into a sword that allowed them to fly on.
The five Core Formation Realm cultivators were absolutely no match for the enraged Hao Ren.
While these cultivators looked at Hao Ren, who was leaving, in horror, a young disciple flew over on a sword and shouted in a panicking tone! "First Elder, all the 1,000-year-old spirit herbs planted on the back mountain were stolen!"
