Mortal Bones

"Chen Hao, you have to think clearly. Once I take action, I will show no mercy, even if you are Amon's disciple."

Nie Chen said coldly.

"Although my master has never acknowledged me as his disciple, you are not even worthy to mention his name."

Chen Hao looked at Nie Chen with disgust.

Hearing this, Nie Chen's face suddenly turned cold.

The temperature around him also turned cold.

"Crack, crack, crack..."

With Nie Chen as the center, the thick snow on the ground condensed into ice at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Seeing this scene, the monks around retreated one after another.

In a blink of an eye, only Chen Hao, a disciple of the Chunyang Sword Sect, and Nie Chen, the elder of the Huangfeng Valley, were left in the open space in front of the Tianyin Hall.

"Shua!"

Facing the cold air that had covered the entire open space in front of the hall, Chen Hao just raised his sword and slashed it in front of him.

With a "bang", a transparent wall formed by the sword energy isolated the cold air released by Elder Nie Chen.

At the same time, a sword intent full of tenacity spread from Chen Hao.

This was the pine and bamboo sword intent he had gained from practicing swordsmanship for a decade in the pine and bamboo forest of the Pure Yang Sword Sect.

"It is indeed the most resilient sword among the young generation of sword cultivators."

Nie Chen held his hands in his sleeves, pacing and staring at Chen Hao.

Even if he was a spirit cultivator, he would not dare to be careless when facing a sword cultivator.

What's more, Chen Hao also had a master named Amon.

"I am not happy at all to be praised by you."

Chen Hao smiled coldly.

At this time, he seemed to be holding the sword casually, but from the body that had become straight again, he had made a gesture of drawing the sword at any time.

After hearing this, Nie Chen of the Yellow Maple Valley snorted lightly, and then turned his palm, palm facing up and gently grasped it.

"Swish!"

Almost at the same time, a huge ice spike pierced out from under Chen Hao's feet.

"Bang!"

Fortunately, Chen Hao had already condensed his sword energy to protect his body, and the ice spike had been cut off by his sword before it pierced through his protective sword energy.

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"

But Chen Hao's sword had just cut off the ice spike, but as Nie Chen raised his hands suddenly, more ice spikes pierced out one after another in the open space in front of the Tianyin Hall, some of which were even longer than the roof.

Chen Hao was overwhelmed and had several bloody holes pierced on his body.

"Zheng!"

Seeing that the open space in front of the hall was about to be completely covered by ice spikes, Chen Hao mobilized the few true essences in his body and swept out with a sword.

"Shua!"

Amid the sound of breaking through the air, sword energy shaped like bamboo leaves and pine needles exploded in the open space in front of the hall with Chen Hao's sword.

With a "bang", all the ice spikes in front of the hall were cut off by this sword.

"Shua!"

But at this moment, the broken ice on the ground suddenly condensed into a thick ice spike without any warning, and suddenly pierced out from under Chen Hao.

"Puchi!"

Chen Hao's body-protecting sword energy was broken, his body was pierced, and he was hanging on the ice pillar.

It turned out that Nie Chen had been waiting for Chen Hao to draw his sword, because as long as Chen Hao drew his sword, the body-protecting sword energy would inevitably weaken, and he would have the opportunity to attack.

"Shua!"

But Chen Hao was extremely tenacious.

Even at this point, he was still able to swing his sword to cut off the ice spike, and then gathered all the last bit of his true energy on the sword.

"Zheng!"

With another sword sound, Chen Hao's slender sword flew out with a "boom" like a flash of lightning.

A sword pierced Nie Chen.

But the moment the sword pierced, Nie Chen raised his hand very calmly, and an ice wall composed of ice spikes immediately rose in front of him.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

After Chen Hao's flying sword broke through three ice walls in succession, it still failed to pierce Nie Chen behind the ice wall.

It was stuck on the last ice wall.

At the same time, Nie Chen stretched out his hand in the direction of Chen Hao, and with a "swish", more than a dozen sharp ice spikes emerged from the ground and pierced Chen Hao in unison.

"Swish!"

Chen Hao was sandwiched between more than a dozen ice spikes, and could only rely on the sword energy to protect his body to prevent these ice spikes from further piercing his body.

"Chen Hao, I'll give you another chance, take me to find Dugu Qingxiao."

Nie Chen held his hands in his sleeves, walked to the center of the field very easily, and looked at Chen Hao with a smile on his face.

"Puh!"

Chen Hao said nothing, but just spit at Nie Chen.

"Since you are so stubborn, I don't bother to give face to Amon."

Nie Chen, whose face became gloomy again, snorted coldly.

The reason why he was so cautious was not only because Chen Hao was a sword cultivator, but also because of Amon behind him.

However, Chen Hao's repeated "not knowing how to raise his hands" made him lose his patience.

He raised his head and gently reached towards Chen Hao.

In an instant, the ice spikes that were originally blocked by Chen Hao's sword energy pierced Chen Hao's body protection sword energy little by little, and then pierced into his body.

Although Chen Hao's body was already covered with scars, most of them were superficial injuries, and few of them really hurt his vital parts.

But this time was different. If all these ice spikes were inserted, not only would his internal organs be pierced, but he would also be eroded by the cold air, and no matter how precious the elixir was, it would not be able to save him.

Many cultivators outside the field applauded after seeing this scene.

These cultivators all had more or less wounds from Chen Hao's sword, and they had been blocked for so long that they had long been filled with resentment towards him.

At the same time, many people began to be eager to follow Nie Chen and rush into the Tianyin Hall to check what was going on.

"Boom!"

But at this moment, a pressure with a violent fire element aura, like a huge palm, slapped heavily on the open space in front of the Tianyin Hall.

Some cultivators were directly hit by this pressure and flew backwards.

"Little rat, dare you show up and fight with me, Nie Chen!"

At this time, Nie Chen shouted angrily, and a huge pressure swept up around him, and immediately dispersed the pressure with a violent fire element aura in the sky.

While all the cultivators breathed a sigh of relief, they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts again at the powerful cultivation of Elder Nie Chen.

At the same time, many cultivators looked up at the sky, wanting to see where the pressure came from.

At this moment, a dazzling fire suddenly lit up in the air.
