My Two-sided Cultivation: Starting From Collecting Experiences - Chapter 481

481 Where’s the Heart?
With an explosion, the heat wave rolled over, completely engulfing Shang Yinzhong.

“No!” Even at the brink of death, Shang Yinzhong stared defiantly at Qin Huai, as if intending to consume him with his gaze.

After that, the bronze world returned to tranquility, with the massive crater left by the black dragon pearl vanishing without a trace. The only remnants were a few experience orbs, which Qin Huai absorbed.

“Ding! You have collected a [Kun Peng Seed (Fragment) x53], [Kun Peng Seed (584/2,000)]!”

“Ding! You have collected a [Kun Peng Seed (Fragment) x77], [Kun Peng Seed (661/2,000)]!”

“Ding! You have collected a [Kun Peng Seed (Fragment) x111], [Kun Peng Seed (772/2,000)]!”
“Ding! You have collected a [Kun Peng Seed (Fragment) x53], [Kun Peng Seed (825/2,000)]!”

“Ding! You have collected a [Blood Demon Thousand-Year Flower (Fragment) x1], [Blood Demon Thousand-Year Flower (1/3)]!”

“Ding! You have collected…”

Notification after notification chimed in Qin Huai’s mind as he collected a plethora of fragments.

He was then reminded of the fragment dropped by Tang Ying, the prefecture overseer’s third in command. Since it was similar to the one he received from Shang Yinzhong, he hypothesized that this group of demons was using their own blood essence as a spirit item, a method not unheard of but rarely used due to the superior combat capabilities of guardian spirit items and demons.

“This is good,” Qin Huai remarked.

The world’s energy flowed like a torrent into his body as the illusion merged with reality, revealing the harsh battlefield once again.

Whoosh…

Qin Huai found himself on the main peak of Wuji Mountain, his gaze fixating on Yu Tiancong, who was also under attack by Kong Binghuang. At this moment, the first elder of Wuji Mountain was already covered in blood and was in a sorry state.

Qin Huai lightly tapped his foot, causing the ground to shatter and sending dozens of debris pieces into the sky. He appeared instantly behind Yu Tiancong, activating the dragon emperor.

Bang!

Yu Tiancong blocked Qin Huai’s attack with a short knife, sparks flying as disbelief filled his eyes.

“Take this!” Kong Binghuang called out a windward charm, releasing a hundred thousand wind blades that blasted Yu Tiancong away.

The wind blades cut through Yu Tiancong’s flesh, revealing his white bones in the air. However, his wounds visibly healed, and the sight of his squirming flesh was grotesque and unnerving.

Realization dawned on Yu Tiancong when he saw the blood-soaked ground – Shang Yinzhong had fallen at the hands of this young man. “You must be possessed by the Demon of Qingzhou. There’s no other way a brat like you could defeat Shang Yinzhong, who was at the fifth-level visceral prefecture realm!”

Yu Tiancong sized up Qin Huai cautiously, his wariness outweighing even that for Kong Binghuang. He found it hard to believe that this young man, who seemed to appear out of nowhere, had risen to power so quickly.

“Good job, kid.” Kong Binghuang patted Qin Huai’s shoulder, his eyes filled with both gratification and surprise. “Yu Tiancong, seems like this farce is about to end.”

No sooner had he finished speaking than he disappeared, his figure blurred by the fierce wind blades, only to reappear like a phantom behind Yu Tiancong. Activating windward charm’s latent wind, Kong Binghuang’s fists landed on Yu Tiancong’s back like heavy hammers.

Crack!

“Don’t underestimate me, Kong Binghuang!” Yu Tiancong roared. Blood spurted from his mouth, curiously suspending in midair before transforming into a guillotine, slicing down an arc in the air.

The blood-drenched guillotine was stopped mid-strike by Kong Binghuang’s bleeding fists. The guillotine and fists were in a stalemate – any slackening in Kong Binghuang’s effort might lead to his fists breaking.

“Can you block a second strike?” Yu Tiancong asked with a sinister smile, spitting out more blood essence. “Your arrogance will be your undoing!”

His blood essence formed two blood arrows, shooting toward Kong Binghuang from his sides. He knew this might be his only chance to kill him.

Bang!

Suddenly, a fist pierced through Yu Tiancong’s heart.

Yu Tiancong, his eyes widened in shock, could only stare at Qin Huai. “What…”

“How could you make such a small mistake?” Qin Huai slowly withdrew his fist, which was now covered in sticky, congealed blood.

It wasn’t so much that Yu Tiancong made a small mistake, it was more that his fear of Kong Binghuang was so deep that he had momentarily forgotten about Qin Huai, who had swiftly eliminated Shang Yinzhong. Regardless, his death was now imminent.

Qin Huai’s eyebrows suddenly twitched in realization. Yu Tiancong’s heart was not on the left. With a resounding bang, Yu Tiancong’s body exploded into a bloody mist.
