Chapter 552: The Killer, Heavenly Dragon Su Jingzhen
As anticipation blossomed in Su Jingzhen’s heart, the two cultivators became even more excited.
They gazed at the dazzling ochre light emanating from the altar, their expressions full of excitement.
After a dozen breaths, the aura intensified, and waves of spatial fluctuations rippled across the entire altar.
“It’s here!”
Su Jingzhen immediately activated the Heavenly Dragon Scales and raised his defenses to the maximum.
He was facing a cultivator who was at least at the mid-Unity Realm. If the opponent attacked directly and Bai Suzhen made even the slightest mistake, Su Jingzhen himself might be killed instantly.
Even though he absolutely trusted Bai Suzhen, he knew deep down that he couldn’t completely rely on others for his safety.
“I didn’t expect you to leave this summoning formation intact and not choose to flee. Your courage is commendable, but your actions are incredibly foolish.”
In the next instant, a familiar voice echoed through the stone hall.
The black-robed figure on the altar reappeared.This time, it wasn’t a projection, but his true form had descended.
As Su Jingzhen had imagined, the aura emanating from this individual was undeniably that of a mid-Unity Realmcultivator.
He was even stronger than Long Xin and Fu Feng before.
However, compared to Qiu Yaoyao, who was stronger remained unknown.
With the presence of his true form, the man’s eyes radiated even more arrogance.
“As I said, I will make you wish for death, but you will not find it. I never make empty promises.”
The hatred in his eyes as he looked at Su Jingzhen was palpable.
His previous projection had been shattered by Su Jingzhen, and he was seething with anger.
However, he was also filled with boundless confidence in the strength of his true self.
After all, he had already sensed that Su Jingzhen had used all of his power to destroy his projection.
Had his projection been any stronger, he would have undoubtedly defeated Su Jingzhen.
However, despite these bold words, Su Jingzhen’s expression remained calm.
“Since that’s the case, before I die, could you grant me a small wish?”
Before the other party could respond, Su Jingzhen continued, “With your Unity Realm cultivation, you must have a respectable position within the Tortoise Sect, right?
It would be good to know at whose hand I’m going to die. “
At this moment, Su Jingzhen’s words were slightly humble.
However, his expression remained calm.
As for this request, the other party readily replied: “This seat is the Earth Tortoise Envoy of the Eight Divine Envoys of the Tortoise Sect!”
As he introduced himself, a hint of extreme arrogance flashed across the man’s face once again.
Su Jingzhen and the two cultivators inside the Stone Hall did not know the specific meaning of this title.
However, it certainly sounded impressive.
A smile once again appeared on Su Jingzhen’s lips.
“Even though I don’t know what it means, it must be a very high position. That’s enough.
So, Earth Tortoise Envoy, allow me to introduce myself. The one who will kill you is Heavenly Dragon Su Jingzhen!”
In the next instant, the dragon power emanating from him erupted.
Of course, Bai Suzhen lent her own strength to Su Jingzhen!
After confirming the other party’s respectable identity, he didn’t hesitate.
His aura directly locked onto the Earth Tortoise Envoy.
Upon hearing the words “Heavenly Dragon,” the Earth Tortoise Envoy’s face changed drastically.
“You… you what? You’re from the Heavenly Dragon Race!”
After recovering, the Earth Tortoise Envoy’s face clouded with disbelief.
He couldn’t believe what he had heard.
He felt that something was wrong today.
A bad premonition crept into his heart, though he couldn’t quite put his finger on what it was.
Seeing the man’s skepticism, Su Jingzhen didn’t hesitate. He tore off his clothes.
The silver light inside, mixed with a trace of ink-colored Heavenly Dragon scales, once again shocked the Earth Tortoise Envoy’s eyes.
“Yo
At this point, regardless of Su Jingzhen’s actual strength, the mere fact that he was a member of the Heavenly Dragon race was enough to make the Earth Tortoise Envoy wary.
The Tortoise Sect was far inferior to the Heavenly Dragon Race.
“Maybe… this is just a misunderstanding.”
After a moment of silence, the Earth Tortoise Envoy took a deep breath and said to Su Jingzhen.
Even though his eyes were still filled with immense anger, brimming with an intense killing intent, he really didn’t want to provoke the Heavenly Dragon race.
However, the moment his words left his mouth, Su Jingzhen immediately pulled out the half-eaten corpse of the Black turtle.
“There is no misunderstanding. Your family’s big turtle was indeed killed by me.
Even those two Soul Formation level cultivators from your Qingzhou branch were killed by my hand.
I have always had a grudge against your Tortoise Sect.
What kind of misunderstanding are you talking about?
Esteemed emissary, make your move. Today, either I die here or you die here.
You said earlier that you wanted me to die a death worse than death itself.
As cultivators, we can’t go back on our word.”
As he spoke, Su Jingzhen’s tone remained incredibly calm.
Anyone who heard it would be driven to smash him into a thousand pieces.
The Earth Tortoise Envoy was clearly unaware of what had happened in Qingzhou.
Even though Qingzhou had reported the existence of a spirit vein that could produce liquid spirit energy, not all the sects in the Luo River Basin paid attention to it.
They didn’t bother to inquire about this desolate land.
Although the Tortoise Sect was afraid of the Heavenly Dragon Race, they had already reached this point. If he continued to retreat, his Dao heart would inevitably be damaged.
He might as well just leave the cultivation world.
“Since you insist on seeking death, our Tortoise Sect is not afraid.”
The corpse of the sixth-level Black Tortoise lay there, its resentment undeniable.
Even if he killed Su Jingzhen, even though their Tortoise Sect was weaker than the Heavenly Dragon Sect, it wouldn’t be easy to wipe them out.
Su Jingzhen was forcing his hand now, and he couldn’t back down.
“This seat will grant you your wish!”
As the words came out of his mouth, the killing intent on the Earth Tortoise Envoy’s body surged.
In his eyes, even though Su Jingzhen was an important figure in the Heavenly Dragon Race, killing him here would only result in the Qingzhou branch being buried with him.
With his status in the Tortoise Sect, he had nothing to fear.
In the next instant, his late-stage Unity Realm aura rose, and he reached out to Su Jingzhen with a single grab.
Su Jingzhen suddenly felt as if the void around him was frozen.
This space seemed to have fallen under the control of the other party.
Su Jingzhen’s heart skipped a beat. He knew that this was a characteristic technique of a Unified Realm cultivator.
Controlling space!
Within the same realm, such a technique wouldn’t be too effective, but for cultivators below the Unity Stage, controlling the space they occupied was essentially a lethal move.
If Bai Suzhen hadn’t been with him today, he, Su Jingzhen, would have been killed in the face of this most basic skill of a Unity Realm cultivator.
At this moment, Bai Suzhen on his waist injected another surge of powerful energy into Su Jingzhen’s body.
Under the influence of Bai Suzhen’s profound aura, the space controlled by the Earth Tortoise Envoy was directly shattered.
Su Jingzhen was now able to move freely within it.
Seeing this, the Earth Tortoise Envoy’s expression changed again.
In his eyes, Su Jingzhen today, whether in his actions or abilities, was filled with the word “strange”.
And at that moment, Su Jingzhen once again revealed a smile.
“Say it again, so that you all know, the one who killed you today is Heavenly Dragon’s Su Jingzhen!”
Actually, Su Jingzhen didn’t care who he killed, as long as the other party’s identity was high enough.
What mattered was that the Tortoise Sect could easily find out that it was he, Su Jingzhen, who was using the name of a Heavenly Dragon Race to cause trouble.
What mattered was the attitude of the Heavenly Dragon Race before he went to them!
