The luminous moonlight reached the ground through bamboo stems and bamboo leaves, making vague light spots.
The shape of light spots was as scary as ghost patterns, and as fierce as savage beasts, making a weird feeling.
Whistle.
Cold wind blew over the bamboo forest. All stems of bamboo were shaking, and the bamboo leaves on the ground were carried up in the air.
Zhang Ruochen detected that something was different, so he stopped recovering himself. He opened his eyes and stood up.


Zoom.
The Abyss Ancient Sword sensed danger and left its sheath. It dragged rings of sword blades, flying and circling Zhang Ruochen, apparently trying to protect its master.

I perceived that a strong strand of evil life was approaching us with a rapid speed,
the sword spirit of the Abyss Ancient Sword said.

Could it be the Immortal Vampires again?
Zhang Ruochen showed his confusion.
With Ling Feiyu commanding in Bamboo Mountain, Immortal Vampires should be wise enough not to intrude.
Not knowing what was coming at them, Zhang Ruochen kept highly alert and released his spiritual power completely to cover up the area of about 15 km surrounding him.
Any blow would be sensed by him.
At the moment, a cloud of cold evil spirit intruded into the spiritual power range of Zhang Ruochen with a terribly fast speed. 15km away, 10km, 5km, 4.5km, 4km…
The Abyss Ancient Sword shuddered fiercely and gave out chirping sounds. It aroused dozens of sword Qi to fly in the forest.

How could it be so fast?



Zhang Ruochen’s face lost color. He felt a danger which was unprecedented to his. And all his hair stood up.
The minute that cloud of cold evil spirit intruded to only 500 meters from him, he pinched his fingers in sword sign and said lightly,
Gold Morning Sun.

The sword technique displayed by Zhang Ruochen was one move of the Nine-Life Sword Technique.
The Abyss Ancient Sword flew out straightly and gave out golden brilliance. It crashed through the night sky and a series of banging noise sounded.
Bamboo along the way that the Abyss Ancient Sword flew past was crushed and exploded into dust.
In front of the Abyss Ancient Sword, a cloud of blood red Qi appeared and kept rolling. A human shaped monster could be seen vaguely in the center of the Qi cloud.
The human shaped monster was covered by blood red long hair. It had fangs in its month, and freezing cold evil Qi was given off from its eyes.
Boom.
The palm of the human shaped monster clapped to its front and collided with the tip of the Abyss Ancient Sword.
It was known that one strike of the Abyss Ancient Sword could break a Hundred-pattern Saint Weapon into pieces. But it didn’t penetrate the palm of the monster. On the contrary, it was thrown back by its palm.


Without slowing down, the human shaped monster raced toward Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen activated the power of Shooting Star Invisible Cloak at once and burst out Luan Phoenix Deity Print Speed to skid to his right side.
But the human shaped monster was even faster than him. It rushed to the face of Zhang Ruochen and hit him with a claw.
Its cultivation was obviously above his as a Half-Saint. How could Zhang Ruochen resist it now?
Even a Ninth Level Half-Saint would be either disabled or killed by a slight touch of the claw of the human shaped monster.
The result of him fighting with Ling Feiyu recently showed up.
Zhang Ruochen was extremely calm in such a dangerous situation, for he was clear that if he could resist for a moment or two, powerful figures in Bamboo Mountain would surely come here at the fastest speed.
So if he could save his life now, it would be a great success.
Zhang Ruochen forced his body to move in the face of the claw of the human shaped monster, and barely avoided being hit in the heart.
Bang.


The claw of the human shaped monster hit the left shoulder of Zhang Ruochen and made a crushing sound against Shooting Star Invisible Cloak, also generating many flickers of light.
Even though Zhang Ruochen had an extremely strong body, he suffered a lot and flew backwards. He had crashed seven bamboos in a row into two, and spit seven mouthfuls of blood.

What’s this evil spirit, daring to intrude into the Ancient Race of Prison Guardians to kill?

The voice of Ling Feiyu sounded from the top of Bamboo Mountain.
Meanwhile, she raced down from her cave to rush to where the human shaped monster and Zhang Ruochen were.
But the human shaped monster wasn’t frightened by Ling Feiyu at all. It jumped toward Zhang Ruochen again with both claws.
Two ten-meter-long claw prints with Qi of blood were formed in front of its two claws, and pressed on the top of Zhang Ruochen’s head with a strong erosion.
Before it fell, the ground underneath Zhang Ruochen began to cave in.
Even if Ling Feiyu was fast, she was too far away. And she could only pick up the corpse of Zhang Ruochen when she arrived.
Zhang Ruochen had to rely on himself to survive.


All his green veins could be seen bulging on his skin, and he opened his eyes wide and shouted,
Abyss!

Zoom.
The Abyss Ancient Sword flew back and hovered in front of him.
Holy Qi gushed out from all five saintly meridians and 36 of his veins and entered the Abyss Ancient Sword. In such a crucial moment, Destruction of the Thousand-patterns was activated.
The Abyss Ancient Sword chopped to its front and left a light curve shaped in a half-moon.
The strike wasn’t aiming for the strong spots, but to display Destruction of the Thousand-patterns at the weakest power spot of the human shaped monster. It carried the wisdom of fighting the strong power with tactics.
With a bang, the powerful sword Qi cracked the two claw prints of blood Qi before the two claws of the human shaped monster, and forced it to retreat two steps.
At the same time, above the bamboo forest, a blinding white light column fell from the sky and hit above the head of the human shaped monster.
The human shaped monster was also powerful, and it reached out two claws and condensed blood Qi to catch the white light column.
Zoom.
The Zangtian Sword went through the white light column and cracked the blood Qi of the human shaped monster.
Right after it, a deafening noise was sounded in the whole bamboo forest.
A strong wave of sword Qi gushed out in all directions, and changed every bamboo into dust and powder. Even the mountain, which lay over thousands of meters, was cracked.
The Defence Battle Formation couldn’t resist the strike of Ling Feiyu.
Zhang Ruochen himself was thrown away by the powerful wave of sword Qi. He inserted the Abyss Ancient Sword into the ground and finally stabilized his body.
Gradually the dust and powder fell down.
Only the white Zangtian Sword stabbed at the heart of the human shaped monster, and nailed him tightly into the earth. Light of thunder and lightning gushed from the sword body and filled the night sky with lightning patterns.
But the human shaped monster didn’t die. It roared like a mad beast, and each time it struggled, the Bamboo Mountain quaked.
Zoom, zoom.
Powerful figures of the Ancient Race of Prison Guardians arrived one after another.
They saw the human shaped monster nailed underneath the Zangtian Sword, and all put on weird looks.
A very old Half-Saint felt confused in seeing the human shaped monster struggling with great pain, and said,
He has been kept for so many years, how could he run away?


The guard and defense of the Underground Spirit Prison was extremely strict. He couldn’t run away. It must be someone else who let him out.

…
At that time, Shi Ren and other Elders of the Shi Family arrived at Bamboo Mountain as well.
Shi Ren was shocked by the human shaped monster with a tremble. He rushed to him, but the powerful sword Qi was so strong that it threw him back directly.
Ling Feiyu landed from the sky with feet stepping on a purple cloud. She stopped beside the human shaped monster and looked at Shi Ren.
Shi Ren kneeled on the ground and was in tears. He begged her,
Saint Sword, please let him off.

Ling Feiyu put on a poker face, her palm pressed on the Zangtian Sword as she sneered,
Why should I let him off? To let him go on killing people?

Ling Feiyu knew something about the inside of the Ancient Race of Prison Guardians, and could almost guess the identity of the human shaped monster.
Both hands of Shi Ren grasped at the earth, and he said sorrowfully,
He has been kept in the Underground Spirit Prison and has never run out to hurt people. Someone must have let him out deliberately tonight, and this has happened.

Ling Feiyu looked indifferent, and said,
It’s just suffering for him to live like this. Why should you insist he be alive? On the other hand, after I kill him, nobody should worry that he could run out and harm the Ancient Race of Prison Guardians any longer. Wouldn’t that be good?

The clan leader of the Ancient Race of Prison Guardians, Wang Beilie, arrived at Bamboo Mountain as well. He landed at the side of Shi Ren and helped him up. He said to him,
Ren’er, Saint Sword Feiyu’s words do make sense. Maybe death is a final escape for him.


No.

Shi Ren’s eyes were bloodshot. He roared and hit at the chest of Wang Beilie. He rushed backwards to the human shaped monster recklessly.
Even if everyone in this world was going to kill him, he would try his best to protect him until he died.
For the human shaped monster seen by everyone else was his father.
A sharpness appeared in Saint Sword Feiyu’s eyes, and she waved her sleeve. A strong strand of Holy Qi gushed out and fell on Shi Ren, which forced him to fly backwards.
With a bang, Shi Ren fell heavily on the ground.
But he climbed up immediately and rushed to the human shaped monster again as if he didn’t feel hurt.
This time Wang Beilie threw a Rune out to form a Formation of Runes and restrain Shi Ren in it.
No matter how hard Shi Ren screamed or hit, he couldn’t crack the Formation of Runes.
Wang Beilie sighed.
Ren’er, you have to calm down. You can’t go mad like your father. After all, you have to step to the position of clan leader of the Ancient Race of Prison Guardians in the future.

Hearing Wang Beilie’s words, Shi Ren attacked even more fiercely in the Formation of Runes and shouted even louder.
Because of the obstacle of the Formation, no one could hear clearly what he was screaming about.
A sneer showed up in the eyes of Wang Beilie.
Then he looked at Ling Feiyu with pity.
In fact, I do want to keep his life. But now that the great enemy has come to us, we have to be more careful. With one mindless mistake, the whole Ancient Race of Prison Guardians would be gone. Saint Sword Feiyu…please send him on the road [kill him]!

Wang Beilie shook his head, as if he didn’t have the heart to witness the scene. So he turned around with both hands folded behind his back.
But a smile showed up from the corner of his lips.

Since the clan wants to keep his life, I have an idea.

Li Min helped Zhang Ruochen to limp and walk to them.
