The next moment.

Dark light shattered his pupils, pierced into his brain, and drowned his will. The talisman that was slapped down finally landed on his broken arm, but the magical power that was about to stimulate the talisman suddenly dispersed.

The talisman slightly flashed but failed to activate.

Thud.

A hint of bloody light came out from behind his head.

His body stood in place for a full breath before it fell to the ground with a bang.

This was the third dagger, controlled by the Departing Fire Sword Technique, laid out in advance as one of the final moves.

Han Yi did not stop his attack and pointed with his sideways finger.

The first cultivator of the Blood God Sect, holding the damaged Blood Soul Banner, was blasted out a dozen meters away. At this moment, he suddenly opened his eyes in a state of fright. Without a second thought, he turned and fled.

Dead, he’s dead.

Shi Heng is dead. He was one of the top cultivators in the eighth level of Qi Cultivation, who could even kill the average one at the ninth level. He died like that, and the situation reversed in an instant.

Initially, it looked like the disciple of the Xuandan Sect was on the defensive. But merely upon meeting, Shi Heng was killed on the spot.

It was terrifying, utterly terrifying.

He suddenly remembered in Tianqing City, this cultivator of the Xuandan Sect killed two seventh-level Qi cultivators of the Blood God Sect in less than two breaths, that dreadful nightmare-like feeling was just like now.

“I hope this expert, just like in Tianqing City, will not chase after me.”

The cultivator had this lucky thought, but the next moment his neck started to hurt intensely. The intense pain came quickly, and it disappeared just as rapidly, along with his consciousness.

Under the night sky, in the forest, a dark light flashed. A headless corpse running wildly burst out several meters, crashing straight into a giant tree. With a crack, flesh and blood flew. The giant tree shook violently, and after about ten breaths, the sound gradually disappeared, and silence was restored.

Han Yi stood in his place, his solemn face relaxed, and he gently beckoned, the four daggers consecutively returned to hang before his eyes.

He looked at the two prying daggers, they were as dark as usual, without any damage, and he was even more relieved.

“It’s worth it that these medium-grade magic weapons were refined by a master. At least their solidity is not weaker than ordinary high-grade magic weapons. This set of magic weapons was worth buying.”

Then, he put away the four daggers.

Yes, just now, he activated not two, but all the daggers within his control.

But they were not concentrated, instead they were dispersed.

Two of them attacked the middle-aged scholar directly, one, before this, had scattered all around. When the middle-aged scholar was fully attracted and his face changed drastically, it pierced through his pupil and came out of the back of his head, completing the fatal blow.

The fourth dagger was near the first cultivator, but at that time, his whole attention was on the middle-aged scholar, he did not activate this hidden trick.

If the middle-aged scholar had escaped, Han Yi would not hesitate and turn this dagger to target him.

In the end, the fate was that the third dagger took the life of the middle-aged scholar, and the fourth dagger killed the first cultivator who turned his back to Han Yi as he ran away.

Thus, the killing of two was over.

After storing the daggers, Han Yi meticulously scanned the surroundings. After confirming there was no other lifeform, he quickly began cleaning up the battlefield.

First, he collected the storage bags from the three dead cultivators, then picked up the destroyed Blood Soul Banner, and the magic weapon that had lost its magical support and reverted to a folding fan into his storage bag. Next, he stripped down their inner armor, damaged or not, after confirming there was no more to collect, he quickly left.

Half an hour after he had left.

Three figures appeared at this location. Looking at the horrific blood-soaked scene, the trio’s brows furrowed.

“Junior Brother Shi, Junior Brother Zhou, and Junior Brother Liang; three of them at the eighth level of Qi Cultivation. Among them, Junior Brother Shi is at the eighth level of Qi Cultivation. However, even if I were to confront him, I might not necessarily have the upper hand.”

“They must be among those ranked highly in the Xuandan Sect, the ones sent to the sacred Yujing Mountain. Only such individuals could possess such murderous abilities.”

A young man analyzed the situation after examining the scene. His eyes flickered with a fierce light, not from the infuriation of the massacre of the Blood God Sect disciples, but from the thrill of the hunt.

The students that Xuandan Sect had sent to Yujing Mountain were the main targets of their hunt this time.

Being able to catch one here excited him.

“Senior Brother Han, shall I?”

The Blood God Sect cultivator who had just finished his analysis licked his lips and turned his head to ask the youth standing in the middle.

The Blood God’s Child of the Blood God Sect, a youth named Han Xuxiao, had a calm expression that seemed to flicker with confusion as he furrowed his brow.

“Something’s not right.”

“Zhou Dan died first, Shi Heng second, Liang Yiyang tried to escape but was killed. All three suffered fatal injuries to the head, which must be due to hidden weapons. Moreover, the attack was extremely fast. It’s highly likely that the rival has mastered the Sword Control Skill or the Object Control Skill.”

“Moreover, these skills are quite strong.”

“Shi Heng’s Silver Scale Fan is not a common superior class magic weapon. Given Shi Heng’s nature, he would have certainly detonated the Silver Scale Fan if he realized that he couldn’t resist. However, there are no fragments of his magical weapon at the scene.”

“This person killed Shi Heng in an instant, and then easily killed Liang Yiyang who was trying to escape.”

“There is quite a gap in the strength of the two sides.”

“Moreover, there is an important issue. If it was a disciple from that group of Xuandan Sect, we have a list of portraits. Shi Heng couldn’t possibly have failed to recognize them. Looking at the scene, he must have felt confident when he made a move, but an accident still occurred.”

“This indicates that the opponent is not someone from the list, but someone hidden deeper.”

At this point, Han Xuxiao’s eyes were filled with a flicker of interest that quickly faded. If it was five years ago, he would have pursued and killed the person without hesitation.

However, he was not a solo traveler now, but needed to oversee everything and couldn’t simply leave.

He gently shook his head, calculating the time, “Let it be, let’s go. This person is not weak and we will encounter him sooner or later. We need to prioritize the bigger picture. Let’s not make unnecessary complications and stick to our plan.”

The young man standing nearby, who had fierce light flickering in his eyes, looked regretful, but did not say anything else.

The trio’s figures flashed, disappearing from the location.

Elsewhere.

After Han Yi hid into the night, he found a hole at the base of a massive tree. He sat down inside it and closed his eyes. His breathing fluctuated a few times before gradually calming down. His heartbeat slowed down with his steady breathing until it was nearly imperceptible.

Turtle Breath Skill.

Over the years, Han Yi had honed this magic skill to the point where his control was as green as fire. With his current strength, as long as he didn’t face anyone directly, he believed nobody under the Foundation Establishment stage could detect him.

Although it was the Turtle Breath Skill, it didn’t mean he would shut his senses off. Han Yi still had awareness of what was happening outside.

“I refuse to believe I am so unlucky that I will be caught again this time.”

With this thought, Han Yi remembered the time in Tianqing City when his Turtle Breath Skill had been disrupted. He didn’t believe it would happen again this time because if it did, it would be absurd..
