Killing God - Chapter 164

Chapter 164 Extinction
Time is the most merciless, never to care about whose expectations or whose sadness and stay, it is always quietly and quietly, walking day by day, through the vicissitudes of life, through millions of years on earth.

Now, it was a new day.

The early morning light once again landed in this forest. There were a few crisp bird chirps and a few low insect chirps. Everything was so quiet and tranquil, as if there had never been a violent storm yesterday.

The bloody scene in the forest was washed away by the storm. The entire night had been cleaned clean. The forest had regained its verdant appearance. Who would remember that painful past?

The transparent dew droplets lightly dripped down from the branches and leaves of the tree and landed on Shen Shi’s face. With a slight chill, it seeped into his skin from his cheeks. He slowly woke up from his sleep and narrowed his eyes. He looked at the quiet forest and the nameless solitary grave beside him.

The little black pig nestled beside him yawned and woke up. It stood up and shook the rain droplets that remained on its fur at night. Then, it also looked at the grave.

One man and one pig suddenly quieted down. They quietly looked at the pile of graves. After an unknown period of time, Shen Shi silently turned around and said,

“Let’s go, Little Hei.”

He walked forward. The little black pig followed him for two steps. Suddenly, he turned around to look at the slightly bulged grave. He seemed to be hesitant and reluctant, but in the end, he mumbled and snorted twice, as if he was saying goodbye to the people in the grave. Then, he turned around and trotted along the way, chasing after Shen Shi, who had slowly walked away.

The morning light quietly descended behind them, passing through the gaps between the branches and leaves, landing on the nameless grave. A breeze blew past, and a few green grass sticks out of the soil, bathed in a gentle light, quietly and tenaciously growing.

④

After a heavy rain, the entire forest seemed to be wet, and even the air seemed to contain some fresh moisture, scattering all the blood from yesterday.

Originally, Shen Shi wanted to leave this place immediately, but after walking for a short distance in the direction of leaving the forest, he stopped. After pondering silently for a while, he turned around and walked deeper into the forest.

Within the dense trees and bushes, there were gradually traces of bending and breaking. Those were the wounds of yesterday that had not been covered by the forest and heavy rain. Shen Shi coldly looked at these traces and silently walked forward. Not long after, he saw the place where the intense battle between life and death had taken place yesterday.

The crimson blood had already been washed away by the heavy rain. Only a few faint traces were still stubbornly left here. On the clearing in the forest, Qian Yi, who remained motionless, was lying on the ground.

Shen Shi slowly walked over. He frowned slightly as he looked at the scene around him. He had been used to seeing bloodshed for many years. He no longer feared the corpses of these dead people. Some of them were just disgusted.

However, even though he hated it, he knew that he had to wipe off the end of this battle as much as possible. Qian Yi wasn’t an ordinary rogue cultivator who didn’t care if he died. He came from a proper cultivation sect, the Profound Sword Sect, and there was also a powerful backer, the Heavenly Sword Palace, behind the Profound Sword Sect. He was also one of the four righteous cultivators in the world. Even if he faced the High Firmament Sect, the Heavenly Sword Palace wouldn’t be at all weak.

Such a powerful force was definitely not something he could provoke.

He didn’t regret killing Qian Yi in the slightest, but it was his duty to protect himself from trouble as much as possible. From what Nangong Ying said yesterday, the sect should have known that he had appeared and sent someone to pick him up. After experiencing so many ups and downs, the current Shen Shi missed the peaceful years when he cultivated calmly on Bluefish Island under the Lingxiao Sect. He was more eager than ever to return to the Lingxiao Sect.

Until then, he didn’t want any accidents to happen.

The heavy rain washed away most of the blood stains and blurred almost all the footprints on the ground. This saved Shen Shi a lot of trouble, but the most important and crucial thing was the corpse of Qian Yi in front of him. Shen Shi stood there and pondered for a while. He walked forward, grabbed Qian Yi’s arms, and dragged him deeper into the forest.

However, after taking a few steps, he quickly found traces of dragging on the ground. After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and pulled Qian Yi’s corpse away from the ground. He carried it on his shoulder and walked deeper into the forest.

Along the way, the bushes, thorns, and the surrounding trees grew thicker and thicker. Gradually, there was almost no place for them to settle down. In the past countless years, no one had ever set foot in this place.

The Little Hei pig seemed to be able to shuttle freely. Its skin was rough and its flesh was thick. It did not fear the thorns and thorns. It had always been following Shen Shi. Shen Shi turned around and took a look. It was quite far from the place where the battle had taken place yesterday. When it stood there, it was completely obscured by the trees.

He thought for a moment and continued walking for a while. He didn’t put down Qian Yi’s corpse until he was completely hidden in a place where no one had appeared in the center of the forest.

Glancing coldly at the dead man, he gently waved his right hand and a blazing fireball appeared in his palm. A moment later, under his urging, the fireball landed on the corpse and began to burn. Primordial Condensation Realm cultivators’ bodies were extremely strong before they died, but after they died, when they lost their vitality and their spiritual energy dissipated, their bodies would quickly soften and collapse. Under the power of this fireball technique, Qian Yi’s corpse was quickly burned to ashes.

The flames lit up and slowly extinguished. They were reflected in Shen Shi’s pupils. They were also like two burning flames. Watching him turn into ashes, Shen Shi walked forward to dig out the soil rocks and cover them. In time, this place would soon merge with the surrounding forests. There was no longer the slightest abnormality.

However, when he made his move, his gaze suddenly narrowed. He saw in the ashes a cloth bag made of non-silk and non-silk. He did not know what kind of material it was made of, but it was lying in the ashes without being burned. Shen Shi frowned. He reached out and picked up the bag. After flipping through it, he recognized that the bag was a very common bag of holding in the cultivation world. In the past, when he was young, he had seen a lot of it on the first floor of Heaven in Xilu City, Yin Province. It seemed to be the most common one on the market.

This bag of holding was also called the Ruyi bag. Although its name was similar, it was different from the small Ruyi ring he had bought on Qingyu Island back then. The Ruyi bag was actually a serious magical artifact. Regardless of the material and method of making it, it was completely different from the small Ruyi ring.

The storage space in the Ruyi Bag was at least five times that of the small Ruyi Ring. Moreover, this space was extremely stable, easily undamaged, and could be maintained for a long time. It could be stored for at least several hundred years. Therefore, the Ruyi Bag was often a common item for cultivators in the Primordial Chaos Cultivation World.

However, since it was a proper magic tool, the Ruyi Bag was also like other magic tools and treasures. It required spiritual energy to activate before it could be used. Furthermore, the threshold for users was precisely the recognized one, which was the Origin Condensation Realm. Apart from that, the price of a Ruyi Bag was not cheap. Not all Origin Condensation Realm cultivators could own it. At the very least, Shen Shi still remembered that when he was young, he had seen many wandering cultivators who had already cultivated to the Origin Condensation Realm on the Heavenly First Floor. He looked at the Ruyi Bag in the shop with an eager expression.

However, he didn’t expect that Qian Yi would actually have a Ruyi bag with him. It seemed that he was backed by a famous sect. Even if it was just a subordinate underground of Heavenly Sword Palace, his life wouldn’t be too bad.

Shen Shi tried to use his Spiritual Energy to probe into the Ruyi bag, but the Ruyi bag did not respond. Shen Shi shook his head and sighed in his heart. Before reaching the Origin Condensation Realm, everything was really like ants. There was practically nothing he could do.

Shen Shi casually put the bag of holding into his embrace. He quickly disposed of the remaining ashes and covered them with soil and stones. He stood up and looked around. After confirming that it was correct, he turned around and left this place.

He walked all the way back to where he had fought yesterday, Shen Shi was busy again. He tried his best to erase all traces of the duel that he had seen. Although there were still some broken tree branches that could not be restored to their original state, Shen Shi still tried his best to decorate this place as it was before. In the middle of this, he also found the spirit sword that Qian Yi had used yesterday in a sewage.

Holding the hilt of the sword in his hand, he picked it up and took a look. The blade was sharp and his hand was gentle. There were two words carved on the hilt of the sword: Mysterious Sword. Shen Shi knew that some large cultivation sects often had halls that specialized in forging magical artifacts. For example, there was an artifact hall in Lingxiao Sect that specialized in forging all kinds of magical artifacts.

The Spirit Sword in front of them looked like the Mysterious Sword Sect, or the Heavenly Sword Palace’s similar artifact hall behind them. They had specially refined a batch of Spirit Sword artifacts with the same rules. This was also another place where the great sects were stronger than rogue cultivators. The chances for their disciples to obtain a magical artifact were much easier than for rogue cultivators.

However, it was much simpler to refine this type of magical artifact with the same rules, However, its power was relatively ordinary. Of course, magic tools were magic tools, and magic treasures were magic treasures. Once they were in the hands of Origin Condensation Realm cultivators, their power could not be underestimated. There were countless rogue cultivators in the world who dreamed of obtaining a spirit sword magic tool refined by a famous sect.

However, right now, Shen Shi had no intention of staying by his side. There was no sign of any special identity on the Ruyi bag. Looking around the world, no one would be able to tell that there was anything unusual about it. However, once someone saw this spirit sword carved with a profound sword, it would be the source of the calamity.

After Shen Shi finished disposing of this place, he tried his best to cover up all traces before heading in another direction. Similarly, in the depths of another remote forest, he buried this spirit sword deep beneath a tree. From now on, it would be very difficult for this spirit sword to see the sun again.

After doing all of this, he raised his head to look at the sky. Through the light of the gaps between the branches and leaves, he could already see the rising sun.

Without further delay, he brought the Little Hei pig out of the forest.

When the light in front of him lit up again, when the wilderness, the river, and the unknown village appeared in his sight again, he let out a sigh of relief, as if this new day had truly begun.

He didn’t go near the village anymore and directly crossed the small river from the edge of the forest. Then, he brought the Little Hei pig to the wilderness. Nangong Ying once told him that the people sent by the High Firmament Sect to pick him up would meet him at the Three Springs Pavilion in Broken Moon City ten days later. All he could do now was to hurry to the city called Duanyue City as soon as possible.

A gentle breeze blew from the front of the field, The Little Hei pig, who had been depressed since coming out of the forest, Looking at the vast plain in front of him, looking at the green grass and wildflowers everywhere, he seemed to be in a much better mood. He began to roll around and run around. Occasionally, he would chase after the butterfly wild bees that were collecting nectar, or he would sniff everywhere. Next to the beautiful wildflowers that occasionally appeared in the grass, he would take a deep breath and smell the fragrance.

Unknowingly, it seemed to be happy again.

Seeing Little Hei’s pig appearance, Shen Shi’s heavy heart relaxed a little. He sighed in his heart. At the same time, when he thought of yesterday’s intense battle, he felt a faint fear in his heart.

An Origin Condensation Realm cultivator was definitely stronger than him in terms of cultivation. Not to mention anything else, if that spirit sword was truly slashed down, under the circumstances where he was unable to dodge, Shen Shi would definitely not be able to receive it. But how could there be so many ifs in life?

So what if he’s a Ningyuan Realm cultivator? Isn’t he …

Shen Shi’s footsteps suddenly stopped. He frowned and thought of something in his heart. The various magical techniques he used yesterday would injure Qian Yi, a cultivator who had already cultivated to the Origin Condensation Realm. Could it be that his Spiritual Energy, at least the mysterious and condensed Spiritual Energy gathered in the acupoint of his forehead and heart, might also be close to the strength of the Origin Condensation Realm?

After thinking for a while, he took out the Ruyi Bag from his chest. Previously, when he was testing the Ruyi Bag in the forest, he had used the spiritual energy in his ordinary qi veins. The Ruyi Bag did not react to it. At this moment, he slowly activated the spiritual energy in the acupoints of his eyebrows and heart apertures and carefully probed into the Ruyi Bag again.
