Soul Devouring Sword Master

The sun was shining brightly, and the bright light shone on the treetops, spilling through the gaps, leaving a mottled light and shadow on the ground.

Suddenly, a hand stretched out from the ground.

Then, a figure climbed up with difficulty, and the dusty appearance was naturally Lin Dan.

Next to him, there was a deep pit of several feet. The cracks around the deep pit were covered with fallen leaves. With the dim light, it was no wonder that Zhang Jing and his team had difficulty finding him.

Lin Xiao lay on the ground, gasping for breath, as if he had survived a disaster.

There was still blood at the corner of his mouth, and his body and face were covered with dust, and his face looked very weak.

"Cough cough cough..."

Lin Xiao coughed up a wisp of blood. When he moved slightly, his internal organs trembled violently, as if they were displaced, and he felt a sharp pain.

Helplessly, Lin Xiao had to lie on the ground. The magical power from his blood in his body flowed through his body, quickly repairing the damaged meridians and warming the damaged flesh and organs.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, his heart meridian was protected, otherwise, he would have died.

In the sea of ​​consciousness, a tombstone sighed. If Lin Xiao could help him find another soul, this would never happen.

But now, he couldn't help Lin Xiao, he could only rely on himself.

Gradually, three days passed, and Lin Xiao was finally able to stand up and walk.

However, the meridians and flesh in his body have not yet fully recovered. The palm that the black-robed man bombarded on him was too terrible.

The black-robed man's cultivation was definitely above the third level in the Xuanling Realm, and he might even be a person of the same level as Dean Zhang Jing. That palm would have killed even a Xuanling Realm master.

Fortunately, the blood power in Lin Xiao's body protected him. Lin Xiao didn't know much about this blood power.

So far, the power of blood has appeared three times. The first time was when he led his men to attack the Dugu family, and the second time was in the decisive battle with Nangong Jian on the Pride List. In these two times, the power of blood brought him an increase in combat power, enabling him to mobilize the momentum of the battle.

And this time, the power of blood protected his heart veins. You know, the palm power of the black-robed man was so terrifying that he could be blocked, which shows how powerful the power of blood is.

Of course, part of the reason is that Lin Xiao's physical body is strong, and he broke through to the third grade in the decisive battle with Nangong Jian, and the solidity of the level spirit vein.

But unfortunately, Lin Xiao didn't know and didn't know how to use the power of blood. It was just occasionally inexplicably stimulated, sometimes there was no, and Lin Xiao was helpless about it.

Lin Xiao found a cave nearby, and then took out some pills.

Among these pills, there are the rewards for the top of the Pride List, three Shengling Pills, 100 kilograms of lower-grade spirit liquid, plus a Xuanling Pill, and some throat healing medicine he bought before.

After taking some throat medicine, Lin Xiao sat cross-legged. After a while, he felt a sharp pain in his spiritual veins, which made him frown. He endured the pain and persisted for several times before the circulation of spiritual energy became smoother.

Then, under the dual effects of blood power and spiritual energy, Lin Xiao's body recovered rapidly.

Royal Academy.

In the hall, several senior officials of the Royal Academy were all there.

On the main seat at the top, sat an old man in a yellow robe, with white hair and a childlike face. His eyes were as deep as the sea, giving people a feeling of being unfathomable.

"Dean, I have sent people to inquire about the news. At the Sword Academy, even Lin Xiao's body was not found. It is estimated that he has been eaten by a monster."

A vice dean smiled.

"This Lin Xiao has repeatedly opposed my Nangong family on the Pride List. Countless talents of my Nangong family have been killed by him. This person should have died long ago. It's really a relief, haha..."

"Yes, once Lin Xiao dies, no one in the younger generation of Wenjian Academy can be Nangong Jian's opponent. By then, my Royal Academy will surely surpass Wenjian Academy on the Canglan List. By then, it's just around the corner for the Nangong family to dominate the Star Empire."

Several vice presidents laughed heartily.

On the main seat, Nangong Shi nodded slightly, with no joy or anger on his face. Although Lin Xiao's body was not found, this person should be dead.

After all, he personally made that palm strike. Even an ordinary Xuanling Realm warrior would be shattered and die, not to mention that Lin Xiao is only a Hualing Realm cultivator.

Huh, old thing, do you think you'll make money by extorting so many things from me? Haha, see whether those things are more important or your disciple's life is more important.

Nangong Shi's mouth curled up slightly with a cold arc.

Wenjian Academy.

At this moment, the atmosphere in Wenjian Academy was extremely depressing.

Originally, winning the first place on the Pride List was great news for Wenjian Academy, and they should have decorated the hall with lights and celebrated, but now, no one could laugh.

In the meeting hall, many senior executives were present, and each of them was suppressing a rage that seemed to burst out at any time.

On the main seat, Zhang Jing had a gloomy face and frowned, wondering what he was thinking.

"No, I can't swallow this breath," a silver-robed elder slammed the table and stood up. It was Bai Feng. At this moment, his face was slightly distorted because of anger, "This is obviously the work of the Royal Academy. They mobilized masters to ambush us on the way back, with the purpose of getting rid of Lin Dan"

"To act so blatantly, you simply don't care about Wenjian Academy. Dean, we must fight back. Lin Xiao's sacrifice cannot be in vain. We must make the Royal Academy pay the price!"

Bai Feng said angrily.

"Yes, I agree with Elder Bai," an elder in gold robe stood up and said, "Lin Xiao is the most outstanding talent among the younger generation of our Wenjian Academy. I will never be willing to die like this. We must do it for Lin Xiao." Xiao do something!”

"Yes, I agree..."

Immediately, the rest of the silver-robed and gold-robed elders also stood up to express their stance. They all said that they could not just let it go and must avenge Lin Xiao.

"I understand what you mean. I'm also very sad about Lin Xiao's matter." Zhang Jing's face was still gloomy, and his eyes were cold. "But don't worry, the matter will not be settled like this. The Royal Academy and the Nangong family must There will be a price to pay!”
