Chapter 756: Turning Rot into Magic
The Great Spirit Master's speed was several times faster than Yang Haoran's. Logically, it should have been a simple task for him to catch up to Yang Haoran, but he suddenly stopped in his tracks, frozen in place.
Because he couldn't sense Yang Haoran's power fluctuations anymore, and could only feel the residual Yin Qi in the area.
Yang Haoran had disappeared suddenly, and his power fluctuations had also vanished at the same location.
This outcome made the Great Spirit Master, who was already filled with anger, burn with even more fury.
He knew that Yang Haoran must have used that unknown talisman again at the critical moment, escaping to another location through the talisman before he arrived.
In his opinion, if he had been just a little faster, he could have easily stopped Yang Haoran from escaping with his abilities. But he had fallen short by just a fraction of a second.
He was actually clear in his mind that this wasn't a coincidence, nor was it luck, but rather Yang Haoran had grasped the timing too precisely. However, he didn't want to admit this fact!
He punched the air, which only made his anger burn even more fiercely inside.
He let out a roar of anger, and his body shot up into the air, gazing down at the ground below with a face full of fury.
With a belly full of anger, the Great Spirit Master quickly formed a seal with his hands, preparing to cast a spirit summoning. However, just at this moment, a power fluctuation suddenly appeared from a secluded area in the forest below.
"Heh heh, the great Great Spirit Master is so easily enraged. Compared to the Great Spirit Master I met last time, you're not even a fraction as good as her."
The power fluctuation appeared, and a man's voice suddenly rang out from the area. His tone didn't have the intentional sarcasm of someone trying to provoke, but was instead very normal and calm.
It was precisely because of his calm tone that his words seemed like they were all facts, which was even more stimulating.
The one who had suddenly spoken was, of course, Yang Haoran, who had just disappeared.
He had indeed used an escape talisman to disappear suddenly, or else he wouldn't have been able to vanish in an instant, especially not under the pursuit of a Great Spirit Master.
Although he had already hidden himself, why did he still choose to reveal himself? It was to attract the Great Spirit Master's firepower. If the Great Spirit Master really did destroy everything within the barrier, Xu Meijing would also be affected.
He didn't want to see this happen, so he chose to reveal himself.
In fact, even if the Great Spirit Master didn't plan to destroy everything within the barrier, Yang Haoran wouldn't have been able to hide forever. He had to reveal his power fluctuations at the necessary time to attract the Great Spirit Master's attention.
It was just that the Great Spirit Master's enraged behavior had forced him to reveal himself prematurely. If the Great Spirit Master really did destroy the area within the barrier, what would be the point of using himself as bait?
Yang Haoran's calm words were like pouring oil on fire, making the Great Spirit Master's face turn bright red with anger.
The Great Spirit Master, who had originally had no target to attack, immediately regarded Yang Haoran as his target!
The Great Spirit Master's changing fingers suddenly stopped, and he successfully formed a seal. A terrifying power fluctuation burst out from his body.
"Spirit summoning Yin Wind Blade!!"
A loud shout came from the Great Spirit Master's mouth, and a large number of Yin Wind Blades suddenly condensed in the air above.
The spirit summoning Yin Wind Blade was a technique Yang Haoran had seen many times before, because Yin Wind Blade was a very common spirit summoning technique, and many spirit masters knew it.
However, the great spirit master's anger had reached a boiling point, and he unleashed a move that was simply breathtaking, like transforming rotten wood into a divine wonder. It was a far cry from the Yin Wind Blade he had seen before.
No matter whether it was the size of each Yin Wind Blade or the power fluctuations it emitted, or even the number of Yin Wind Blades, it was unmatched by any other spirit master he had seen before.
A ordinary spirit summoning, performed by this great spirit master, was like a thunderbolt, leaving people in awe. At first glance, it was like a massive black cloud hovering above, giving people a strong visual impact and an indescribable sense of oppression. It was hard to believe that it was just an ordinary spirit summoning. Lo-ve^ t#his s+tor+y?@ Sh^o%w% yo@ur* su&p%p%or%t on M*9#VL.EM.P-Y!R%.
Under the great spirit master's control, a large number of Yin Wind Blades suddenly began to vibrate violently, emitting a buzzing sound, and then, like a torrential rain, they slashed down towards Yang Haoran, who was on the mountain below.
The sound of the Yin Wind Blades breaking through space continued to echo, followed by a series of deafening explosions from the mountain below, like the rapid firing of firecrackers.
The ground shook, and dust filled the air. The fierce attack lasted for about 10 seconds, and the great spirit master's Yin Wind Blade finally came to an end.
A gust of wind dispersed the dust, revealing the situation below. Yang Haoran's mountain had been flattened by the great spirit master's ordinary spirit summoning.
Although the Yin Wind Blade's attack time was not long, its power was terrifying. It was impossible to flatten a mountain in just 10 seconds without sufficient power.
The great spirit master's face remained calm, without a hint of exhaustion, as if he had simply launched a casual attack.
Yang Haoran's power fluctuations had disappeared, and the great spirit master's face revealed a relieved expression.
In his eyes, Yang Haoran was already dead, and he was about to find Xu Meijing and take her down.
As for Yang Haoran's soul, he would deal with it later, after handling Xu Meijing.
"I didn't want to kill you so quickly, but this is what you brought upon yourself. If I don't kill you, I won't be able to give myself an explanation!"
The great spirit master spoke coldly, and he indeed didn't want to kill Yang Haoran so quickly. After all, Yang Haoran was an Underworld Envoy, and the Yin spirit power within him was of great help to his Guardian Spirit.
His original intention was to cripple Yang Haoran and then imprison him, allowing his Guardian Spirit to slowly devour the Yin spirit power within him. However, Yang Haoran had dared to play with him, filling him with anger, so he was determined to kill Yang Haoran, even if it meant he couldn't obtain the Yin spirit power within him.
Now that Yang Haoran was dead, his anger had been somewhat vented, and he had regained some of his rationality. He felt a pang of regret in his heart.
He was about to leave to find Xu Meijing, using brutal methods to destroy everything within the restriction barrier, so that Xu Meijing wouldn't be able to continue breaking through.
Although this would cause him significant consumption, he had no other choice, as he didn't know where Xu Meijing was hiding. He was worried that time was running out, and he had to stop Xu Meijing from successfully opening the earth soul.
He wasn't afraid of Xu Meijing's power after opening the earth soul, but because Xu Meijing's power would increase exponentially, making things very complicated.
In a sense, Xu Meijing, after opening the earth soul, would be on the same level as him, and he couldn't treat Xu Meijing like an ant to be crushed.
To avoid being passive, he had to stop Xu Meijing from opening the earth soul!
However, just as he was about to turn and leave, the space above him suddenly began to fluctuate violently.
At the same time, a power fluctuation burst out from another mountain below him, a power fluctuation that, in his eyes, was not particularly strong, but would be considered impressive for an ordinary spirit master.
Feeling this power fluctuation, his face turned ugly again, because it was Yin spirit power!
The mountain that emitted the power fluctuation was right next to the flattened mountain, and judging by the intensity of the power fluctuation, he immediately guessed who had released it!
Apart from Yang Haoran, who else could it be? It was precisely because he was clear about this that his face turned ugly again.
"You can't even die like this Your escape methods are truly impressive!"
The great spirit master spoke in a low, menacing tone, and from his gritted teeth, it was clear that he wasn't praising Yang Haoran from the heart.
