The Spiritual Attainment of Minghe-Chapter 406: The Battle Escalates

Chapter 406: The Battle Escalates

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

The God-killing Spear had been Minghe's most precious weapon throughout all these years because it could devour everything to enrich itself. That feature saved Minghe a lot of trouble. Refining Spiritual Treasures required a lot of materials, and higher-ranked treasures needed larger and more precious materials. It was a great obstacle for Minghe, who did not have a rich background.

If he was alone, it would not be such a problem. But Minghe had the Three Separations. The four of them made refining Spiritual Treasures much harder, and the World of Heaven and Earth was a material guzzler. Most of the resources that Minghe collected had nurtured the World of Heaven and Earth.

But the God-killing Spear was the most special weapon. Minghe repaired it in Untainted Land, making it swallow both Original Spirits and bodies. Thus, the spear could now evolve endlessly. Over the years in the Starry Sky Region, the God-killing Spear had devoured many Starry Sky Giant Beasts at the Fate Realm. Because of that, it had developed quickly into Minghe's first Mid-Grade Spiritual Treasure of Chaos.

One was a killing Mid-Grade Spiritual Treasure of Chaos, the other was an inferior Low Grade Spiritual Treasure of Chaos. You could imagine what happened when the two clashed. The owners were at different levels as well. At the same Middle Stage of the Fate Realm, the senior Taoist was still much weaker than Minghe.

It's no use crying over spilled milk. The senior Taoist failed and lost a Spiritual Treasure of Chaos. He spat out blood when his treasure was destroyed, leaving him no time for regret. A sword swung by, and it would not have been any use for him to even defend against it now.

Minghe looked at the owner of the sword and discovered that it was his partner, Hongjun. The long sword in Hongjun's hand glittered like frost and snow. Minghe, who mastered the Tao of refining weapons, saw that it was a Top Grade Spiritual Treasure of Chaos, and the refining pattern was different from that of Hongjun's Zixiao Palace. It did not seem that Hongjun had refined it, thus, he must have had his own Fated Chances.

Minghe did not mind Hongjun's attack, after all, he would not try to be a hero and play one-on-one. It was understandable in this crazy world. As the spear trembled, an Evil Spirit dragon crawled out to gulp down the senior Taoist. The corpse of a Cultivator at the Middle Stage of the Fate Realm was actually valuable.

The killing continued. As Minghe collaborated with Hongjun, even a dozen Cultivators at the Middle Stage of the Fate Realm could not compare to them, but instead were killed by them. Thus, everybody started to pay attention to them, and Cultivators at the Early and Secondary Stage of the Fate Realm did not dare to mess with them anymore as they did not want to die.

Although those at the Early or Secondary Stage did not dare to, someone had to step forward. This time, their opponent was a master at the Late Stage of the Fate Realm. He had red hair and was dressed in black, giving out a heavy killing intent. He did not look easygoing, and everyone gasped in his presence.

"He is Blood Asura Taoist Zuo Qiu. They're in big trouble."

"The Blood Asura? Taoist Zuo Qiu? Who is that? Is he famous?"

"Of course he is! Don't you know the Blood Asura? How ignorant! It's an earth-level force in Central Region called the Underworld Mansion. It's the most famous and strangest earth-level force. They don't have any base, but they have many connections in town. They get paid to kill. They would even kill Core Disciples of sky-level forces for money."

"Those two really are in danger. The Blood Asura is even well-known in the Central Region."

Hearing them talk, Minghe and Hongjun did not show the slightest fear, but just obscure smiles. "What? The Blood Asura?" Minghe thought it was weird. Everyone had to know that Minghe was the Ancestor of the Asura Tribe in Untainted Land. He could remake an entire new Asura Tribe in the Battlefield of Gods and Demons if he wanted to.

The Blood Asura felt the defiance in their smiles. But, he also put on a smile as his eyes flashed with a murderous feeling. His smile was full of hair-raising killing intent. The other people also felt that intent and fell back in order to not get involved.

The Blood Asura fixed his murderous eyes on Minghe and Hongjun. Then, he said in a low voice wearing that scary smile, "The two of you are funny. You don't show any fear of me. It's great, I like that. I like people like you, and I'll like it more when you start to fear. The killing is about to begin."

Minghe and Hongjun exchanged a glance as if they were communicating. The Blood Asura became furious when they ignored him like that. He struck out his blood-red machete, and the blade Qi turned into numerous bloodied spiritual dragons that overwhelmingly went at the two people. In an instant, the air full of killing intent pervaded the sky.

The Blood Asura did live up to his fame. His bloodied machete was a Top Grade Spiritual Treasure of Chaos similar to Hongjun's sword, and it seemed to exceed Hongjun's. The power of the machete was further strengthened by its owner's Law of Killing. An ordinary Cultivator at the Middle Stage of the Fate Realm would probably be injured, if he could even survive.

Facing such attacks, Minghe and Hongjun remained calm without the slightest hint of fear. Then, Hongjun took a small step and reached out, and a chessboard appeared in his hand. Hongjun sang: "The world is a chessboard, and everything within it is its pawn." In a flash, the chessboard became gigantic against the Starry Sky.

"Transform!" Another song was heard. The blade Qi immediately stopped in the air and collapsed at the chessboard in the form of pawns. Lines on the chessboard crossed the three people. Minghe, Hongjun, and the Blood Asura were the players in this extraordinary life-and-death game.

"What a Heaven and Earth game!" Minghe could not help being amazed. That was not an ordinary chessboard. It was a Highest Grade Spiritual Treasure of Chaos in the aspect of Spiritual Treasures, and it was also a Tactical Field in the aspect of tactical formations. Minghe, Hongjun, and the Blood Asura were all in the formation, and the tactical formation went by a strange name.

Its name was the Universal Life and Death Chess. Once you were in the formation, you could only escape by killing someone else or destroying the chessboard. And what was even more special was that it would transfer the luck of the dead man to the one who was living. Thus, it was widely acclaimed amongst many forces.

There were always disagreements within a force. And if one occurred that was irreconcilable, a life and death duel would be held. The duel usually took place in a tactical formation like the Universal Life and Death Chess. That way, they would not waste a disciple's cultivation.

But Hongjun's chessboard was different from the Life and Death Platform. In the Life and Death Platform, both of the players were pawns that were not in control, while here, Hongjun was able to do that. For the first time, the Blood Asura panicked. Apparently, he did not expect it, but fortunately, the tactical formation was not a major attacking one, otherwise, he would have been doomed.

Hongjun ignored the Blood Asura and spat another word: "Restore!" Then, the pawns turned back into blade Qi and slashed right at the Blood Asura himself. The Blood Asura's countenance changed, and he wielded his machete. The clashes of the numerous blade Qi were ear-piercing.

The blade Qi clashed and vanished. The Blood Asura narrowed his eyes and wore an angry face. It was such a humiliation to be hit by his own blade Qi. He had taken a wrong step to let his opponent take advantage of his own move. Now, it was not easy for him to control it. But he was about to fight back. He would acquire all their luck so long as he could kill them.

However, before he could dream, he was awoken to reality. When all the blade Qi had vanished, a giant axe chopped at him. He was immediately alert and parried with his machete. Other than the clashes, he also heard a crisp sound of cracking.

Though he had warded off the axe, the Blood Asura showed no delights at all. Seeing his old machete, his face turned pale. Under the hit, his machete broke and cracks crawled onto its blade. He was greatly affected by the damage of his Spiritual Treasure.

The Blood Asura lifted his head to look at Minghe and Hongjun, traceless of the arrogance and fury that had been on his face. There was only awe and fear now. Two Highest Grade Spiritual Treasures of Chaos appeared out of the blue. But the scariest part was the Blood Asura did not know if it was their best strike. The only thing he knew was this might be his fate.
