Chapter 1390: Chapter 5: Yin Filth Miracle

Sizzle sizzle sizzle!

The whole room is ablaze with black qi like fire.

The seemingly insignificant little wisp of weak water vapor actually has a miraculous effect of bringing the dead back to life.

"Could this be the legendary..."

Xu You’s beautiful eyes widened, full of disbelief, as a bizarre guess formed in her mind.

"Yes..."

Xu Nianning sighed helplessly, "This is the legendary ’Undying Spring’..."

Today.

Everyone knows that Xie Xuanyi carries the Undying Spring with him.

It’s no longer a secret.

Yet seeing the Undying Spring with her own eyes still left Xu You awestruck. It wasn’t that she hadn’t consulted others about this strange illness, but even Master Tang of the Yang God Realm couldn’t cure it.

However, this black qi was dispelled by a mere wisp of water vapor.

"Isn’t this somewhat... a waste?"

Xu You looked complicated, thought for a long time, and cautiously opened her mouth.

"It’s okay, Aunt You."

Duan Zhao said earnestly, "This bit of Undying Spring is nothing."

"..."

Xu You fell into a prolonged silence and self-doubt.

So, is it that she is inexperienced?

This is the legendary Divine Artifact, a supreme treasure that diminishes drop by drop, and just the overflowing vitality permeating the room should be enough to save half a life, right?

"This indeed is not much."

Xu Nianning spoke fairly.

She knows that every cultivator who gains the opportunity from the [Longevity Lamp] will receive a wisp of the Undying Spring.

The amount varies depending on their realm.

The Book Tower gave Xie Xuanyi a list.

To gain the opportunity from the [Longevity Lamp], the minimum requirement is at least the Cave Heaven Realm cultivators. The amount of the Undying Spring received by the Cave Heaven Realm cultivators is approximately this wisp, which seems small but sufficient to save a life even if they are seriously injured after advancing to the Yin God Realm.

The Undying Spring water vapor for the Yin God Realm is approximately five times this amount.

The water vapor given to the Yang God Realm is at least a hundred times this wisp.

As Xie Xuanyi’s direct disciple, the amount of Undying Spring Duan Zhao received would definitely not be less than a great cultivator of the Yang God Realm.

Expending one percent to trade for a clue.

Although a bit "extravagant," it’s not unacceptable.

"This... doesn’t seem like much..."

Xu You couldn’t help but chuckle bitterly.

Though she is close to Xu Nianning, she is not on the list, and has no chance at the opportunity of the Undying Spring. She could only lament at the moment: "Master Xie’s generosity... is really grand."

"Watch out!"

Suddenly.

Xu Nianning shouted lowly.

The scout who appeared dead suddenly opened his eyes wide, got up abruptly, and spewed a big mouthful of black qi at Duan Zhao.

!!!

Xu Nianning’s first reaction was to sacrifice her sword to kill him.

However, Duan Zhao reacted even faster.

He blocked his senior sister with one hand and punched out heavily with the other.

This punch was powerful enough to directly explode the scout’s head, but having spent a wisp of Undying Spring water vapor, Duan Zhao controlled the strength, wrapping the "Mysterious and Clumsy Dao Intent" in the punch!

Boom—

Amidst the explosive sound, the punch scattered, the scout fell back down straight and rigid, seemingly filled with ferocious killing intent but did not truly harm him.

Instead, the group of black qi was shattered by the punch!

The black qi, however, quickly reformed several meters away like it had Spirit Wisdom, and shot swiftly towards outside the house!

"Stop it!"

Duan Zhao roared angrily, "This ’filthy thing’ is the main culprit! We can’t let it just run away!"

Xu You immediately acted, alone deploying the Spirit Sea Sword Formation.

Within a ten-meter radius, all was enveloped by the Dao Domain.

The escaping speed of the black qi suddenly decreased, as if trapped in a quagmire.

Ssssss!

This deeply concealed black qi indeed developed Spirit Wisdom, and upon seeing it couldn’t escape, it twisted its body and directly collided into the body of another "deadwood-like" scout.

This is the highest realm cultivator among the four.

Already at the peak of the Qi-controlling Realm.

After the black qi entered the body, this cultivator slowly opened his eyes, and a hint of coldness flashed in his pupils. He appeared no different from ordinary people, but the words he uttered were extremely icy.

"...Kill!"

This scout took action actively, attacking Xu Nianning, who was closest to him.

"Courting death."

Xu Nianning’s eyes revealed killing intent.

A mere Qi Control, yet dares to face a Yin God head-on?

Crack crack crack!

In an instant.

Between the two, within a square meter or more, was filled with hundreds of strands of Sword Qi!

"Slash!"

Xu Nianning shouted lowly, pointing out.

With this point, she directly wrapped the "Thousand Mechanism Dao Realm" in the Sword Qi!

Because of the significant realm difference, Xu Nianning deliberately held back a bit of force, choosing not to directly kill this innocent scout but only cutting off his arm.

However...

A bizarre scene unfolded!

The Qi-controlling Realm scout possessed by black qi had his arm shattered, but it regrew rapidly.

A massive amount of Black Evil entangled, rolled, and regenerated.

This sinister spectacle, comparable to the regrowth of the Undying Spring, yet filled Xu Nianning’s heart with intense unease!

"Slash again!"

Xu Nianning reacted quickly, shouting again.

Numerous strands of Thousand Mechanism Sword Qi were unleashed.

This time she did not hold back... the dense array of Sword Qi threads almost filled the entire room, shattering this unfortunate, innocent Qi-controlling Realm scout into thousands of pieces, a wound that even the Undying Spring could not heal.

But a terrifying occurrence unfolded again.

When the Thousand Mechanism Sword Qi withdrew.

The scattered "scout" parts twisted, struggled, pieced together bit by bit.

Even if the pieced-together form was no longer human.

"This..."

Even as knowledgeable as Xu Nianning, her Heart Lake felt the shock.

Even those Southern Border Evil Cultivators back then didn’t seem to possess such magic?

"It’s no longer human!"

Duan Zhao’s expression turned dark and cold, "When they returned from outside the border, these four were already ’dead’..."

Since it’s no longer human.

Then... there’s no need to maintain the human form...

"How should this be killed?!"

Xu Nianning gritted her teeth, obviously a bit flustered.

Once again unleashing Thousand Mechanism Sword Qi on the scout’s remains, yet unable to halt its regenerating miracle.

"These bizarre things, don’t fear Dao Intent!"

On the other side, Xu You’s low voice of anger rang out.

As sudden changes arose, the seemingly peaceful small courtyard fell into chaos, aside from the previous scout freed from black qi showing no reaction, the other two scouts "revived," actively launching attacks. Though relying on a high realm to suppress "them," these bizarre entities feared not death, stubbornly approaching Xu You despite the Sword Qi.

Xu You’s heart surged with unease.

If touched by these things... perhaps she too would be "tainted"!

"Fear not Dao Intent?"

Duan Zhao narrowed his eyes, confused. None of the three resurrecting scouts approached him.

He immediately understood something.

"Let me!"

The young lad stepped forward hugely, wrapping a wisp of Undying Spring water vapor on the heavy sword’s edge, then slashed forcefully and heavily.

A fierce blood-red head flew high.

Landed heavily.

This time... the black qi did not regenerate but was annihilated, turning into ashes!
