Chapter 5331
Kai’s figure shuttled through the crowd so fast that only a trail of afterimages was left behind.
Each of his sword strikes was extremely precise, whether stabbing or slashing, he could always penetrate the enemy’s weakness at the critical moment.
Sometimes, there is no need to use the Dragon-Slaying Sword. Just a casual wave of the hand will turn the golden spiritual power into a sharp blade, cutting the throats of several monks.
But in just a moment, dozens of monks in the camp were killed, leaving only the skull altar still emitting a faint green light.
Kai walked slowly to the altar and looked at the souls struggling in pain in the green light, a trace of pity flashed in his eyes.
Most of these souls are incomplete, obviously having been tortured for a long time. Their intelligence has long been blurred, leaving only instinctive pain and fear.
He raised his hand and a soft and pure golden spiritual power was injected into the altar.
The runes composed of evil energy instantly shattered like glass, and the power that bound the souls vanished. As if feeling liberated, the souls transformed into tiny specks of starlight, drifting towards the sky before eventually dissipating between heaven and earth.
“Rest in peace.”
Kai said softly, with a hint of compassion in his voice.
He turned around and without stopping, rushed towards the place where he had agreed to meet Hu Mazi.
As soon as we arrived at the meeting point, we saw Hu Mazi standing under a huge tree that required several people to hug. At his feet lay the corpses of dozens of black-robed monks, each of which had traces of burns from talismans.
Hu Mazi’s face was full of anger. It was obvious that he had found out something but was not satisfied with it.
“How is it?” Kai asked, his eyes sweeping over the corpses, and he already had some guesses in his mind.
Hu Mazi gritted his teeth and said, “I found three camps, killed over a hundred people, and captured a few alive. But after asking everyone, they all said they didn’t know the whereabouts of the Hu family’s soul!”
He paused, then continued, “But I caught a small leader who was quite stubborn. It took some effort to get him to give in. He said the core area of the branch temple is in the Blood and Bone Valley deep in the mountains. Those two old ghosts You Wuxie and You Wuji should be there.”
“Blood and Bone Valley?”
Kai’s eyes focused, and the Dragon Slaying Sword rang softly, as if responding to his fighting spirit. “It seems that the real master is there.”
“Let’s go! To the Blood and Bone Valley!”
Hu Mazi could no longer suppress the anger in his heart. Before he finished speaking, he had already sacrificed several wind talismans. The talismans turned into a gust of wind that lifted him up and rushed towards the depths of the mountains.
Kai followed closely behind, and the two of them sped along the way, killing all the Evil Dao Hall monks they met along the way.
Hu Mazi’s talismans are endless, sometimes they are extremely powerful blasting talismans that can blow all the monks in an area to pieces;
Sometimes it is a binding talisman that can instantly freeze the enemy in place and let them be slaughtered; occasionally, a few flame talismans will be thrown out to ignite a raging fire and burn away the evil spirits.
Kai was even more decisive. Wherever the Dragon-Slaying Sword passed, golden light and flames intertwined, and almost no one could stop it.
Often, with a flash of sword energy, dozens of cultivators would turn into charcoal, cleanly and neatly, without a trace of drag.
The closer you get to the Blood and Bone Valley, the stronger the smell of blood in the air becomes, even forming a faint blood mist.
Dark red streams began to appear on the ground. Upon closer inspection, they were actually solidified blood. When you stepped on it, it made a “crunching” sound that made your scalp tingle.
The Blood and Bone Valley is truly worthy of its name.
The entire valley was covered with white bones, spreading from the valley bottom to the mountain walls on both sides, like a road of death paved with bones.
The mountain walls on both sides were covered with dried corpses. These corpses were in different postures, some with expressions of fear, some with expressions of pain. It was obvious that they had suffered great torture before death.
In the center of the valley stands a huge black palace.
The palace is made entirely of obsidian and is engraved with strange runes, which occasionally flash a blood-red light.
