The two black-robed men took out a bunch of talismans again without hesitation. They turned into streaks of red runic light and entered the bodies of the two refined corpses.

The three-headed refined corpse with only one head swelled up again. It was like a black giant that exploded with an unprecedented vicious aura as it charged toward the Sword Control Sect’s disciples and elders.

The severed arm of the other corpse grew back again. The eight-armed corpse lay on the ground like a human-shaped spider.

Two black-robed men jumped up and stood behind the eight-armed corpse. They chanted and used the escape technique!

Bang!

A burst of black smoke exploded, and the two people and a corpse disappeared.

The refined corpse became their shield!

The other one became their escape mount.

Although the two Yin Corpse Sect disciples felt sorry for the refined corpse, the corpse was nothing compared to their lives.

At this moment, the black giant refined corpse was charging toward the sect disciples on both sides. The neck of the severed head was still releasing black gases.

Anyhow, it was a Nascent Soul Realm refined corpse. The black gas released was not something an ordinary disciple could withstand.

The most terrifying thing was that the body of this refined corpse seemed to be constantly expanding as if it was about to self-destruct.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Qishan felt that it was a pity, but fortunately, he had used a tracking technique on the two refined corpses.

He temporarily gave up on chasing after the black-robed man. He worked together to trap and kill the refined corpse.

…

Meanwhile in the Sword Control Sect.

In a hidden cave that was a thousand miles away from Qianyuan Mountain.

The two black-robed men used all the mana in their bodies. The eight-armed corpse beside them had run away and broken all of their arms. Now, they had become armless trash.

After running for their lives, they finally escaped from the Sword Control Sect.

With their third-grade feng shui secret technique, they had already sensed that a great formation had been set up in Qianyuan Mountain during the battle. Thus, they did not use the flying escape technique.

When they escaped, they used the earth escape technique.

“Damn it, I didn’t expect the Sword Control Sect master to actually comprehend a trace of innate lightning power.

“This lightning, which is extremely strong against us, coupled with the sword technique of the Sword Control Sect, is truly terrifying.”

The two black-robed men spoke with lingering fear in their hearts.

Fortunately, they made a prompt decision and sacrificed two refined corpses to escape.

When they thought of the terrifying and fierce sword strike that carried the power of lightning punishment, a deep fear flashed in the depths of their eyes.

“Damn it, not only did we not find that secret treasure map, but we also lost two refined corpses.

“Isn’t this all because of you? You even wanted to steal a sword master’s corpse. This time, you directly triggered the restriction!” The short black-robed man said angrily.

“Hmph, it’s clearly because Zhang Qishan is too vigilant. Even if I don’t touch those corpses, these restrictions will explode sooner or later.”

The tall and fat black-robed man explained and glanced at him, then he added, “This time, we didn’t come for nothing. We’ve investigated the background of the Sword Control Sect. Next time, we’ll bring along an array formation master and a talisman painter, and we’ll definitely be able to find that treasure. By then, we’ll have whatever corpse materials we want.”

Hearing the tall black-robed man’s words, the short man’s expression eased up a little. He said, “Fortunately, the Sword Control Sect doesn’t have a sword master to guard it. The secret technique inheritance is also incomplete. Even so, it’s still extremely dangerous. The lightning punishment is too strong against us. In the future, we can’t set foot in the Sword Control Sect without sufficient preparations.”

The two of them looked at each other and nodded. Just as they were about to leave this place, a mocking voice entered their ears.

“Who said that the Sword Control Sect doesn’t have a sword master?”

After hearing this, the two black-robed men felt their scalps go numb and their hair stand on end.

An instinctive sense of life and death spread from the bottom of their hearts.

They turned their heads and looked at the source of the voice.

They saw a handsome man wearing a long green robe slowly walking out from a corner of the darkness.

It was Wu Ye.

There was a hint of mockery in his expression.

The two black-robed men looked at each other. They could see a sense of deep fear in each other’s eyes.

The fact that this cultivator could appear in front of them without a sound meant that his strength was unfathomable.

However, they could not detect any aura fluctuation from this cultivator.

It was as if the other party was an ordinary cultivator who had not cultivated at all.

This was f*cking ridiculous.

An ordinary cultivator could catch up to them and silently appear in front of them?

They were using the earth escape technique. Coupled with the advantage of the geomancy secret technique, it was impossible for anyone to track their escape.

There was only one possibility. Not only was the other party stronger than them, but he was also an expert who was proficient in the escape and geomancy techniques!

At the thought of this, the two black-robed men broke out in cold sweat.

“Are you a cultivator of the Sword Control Sect?”

One of the black-robed men asked.

Wu Ye nodded with a smile and introduced himself, “To be precise, I’m an official disciple of the Spirit Plant Hall of the Sword Control Sect.”

“Spirit Plant Hall? You’re a farmer?”

The two black-robed men were slightly stunned by this answer.

When did the Sword Control Sect’s farmer disciples become so powerful?

They could not even see through the other party’s cultivation.

“F*ck! This is a f*cking joke, right? He’s actually not that strong.” The tall and fat black-robed man was burning with anger. He glanced at the short man beside him but saw that he did not act rashly.

At this moment, the short man was staring at Wu Ye. His hands were constantly moving as if he was trying to calculate Wu Ye’s strength.

The tall and fat man said somewhat grumpily, “The enemy is already in front of you, yet you’re still calculating here. Trash!”

The short man did not know how to calculate, which was why the tall and fat man felt a little impatient waiting here.

Soon, he could not hold it in anymore and said arrogantly to Wu Ye, “Although I didn’t steal a sword master’s corpse this time when I came to the Sword Control Sect, I can’t make a loss. I want to capture you alive and raise you into a refined corpse!”

A ruthless expression appeared on the tall black-robed man’s face.

He did not believe it. The other party looked so young, but how powerful could he be?

Whoosh!

A black wind rushed past.

Their figures instantly disappeared from where they were. When they reappeared in the next moment, they had already landed right above Wu Ye.

“You want to capture me alive to refine a corpse?”

A cold smile appeared on the corner of Wu Ye’s mouth.

If he did not know the background of these two people, it would be fine.

However, he already knew what these two people were most afraid of.

Boom, boom!

The tall black-robed man waved his hands, and two black palm winds suddenly blasted out, bringing with them an incomparably fishy aura as they smashed toward Wu Ye’s head below.

However, just as the palm winds were about to reach an area of ten centimeters around Wu Ye’s body, they were blocked by a golden qi wall. The black wind was instantly dispersed!
