Chapter 64: Let's Kill Them

"The results are..."

"... Far better than we thought."

After a whole day of diligent cultivation, the Hu Sisters finally opened their eyes, astonished at the progress they had made in such a short period when they checked their cultivation base, making both of them widen their eyes in surprise.

Initially, Hu Jiao'er had expected Hu Mei'er's cultivation to rise to the 7th Stage of the True Element Realm from absorbing the Bloof Beads collected while hunting the Ghost King Valley's disciples, but unlike what Hu Jiao'er had imagined, their cultivation soared even higher after they had absorbed the fifty Blood Beads they had collected within the hidden valley, reaching the peak of the 8th Stage of the True Element Realm, something that surprised both Hu Jiao'er and Hu Mei'er.

The Siblings Divine Art was supposed to bring Hu Mei'er's cultivation base to the same level as Hu Jiao'er's at a rapid speed, and it did, bringing her to the 7th Stage of the True Element Realm. After that, their cultivation bases would rise alongside each other.

"I'm not sure how much progress the others have made since we arrived at this isolated place, but I doubt it is anywhere near us, Mei'er." Hu Jiao'er commented, getting up from the ground.

"Big sis, I think we're the strongest in this isolated world after Su Mu." Hu Mei'er commented with a sweet smile, getting up before the two sisters walked out of the cave they were in.

Even after reaching the peak of the 8th Stage True Element Realm, the Hu Susterd were sure that they'd still stand no chance against Su Mu, even if they were to fight him together.

"Even if that's the case, don't let that get over your head. There aren't many cultivators with a cultivation base higher than ours, but there are still 6th Order Monster Beasts out there." Hu Jiao'er replied, looking at the centre region of the hidden valley.

6th Order Monster Beasts were equivalent to Immortal Ascension Realm Cultivators, so coming into conflict with one wasn't something Hu Jiao'er wanted.

The Hu Sisters could fight above their realm of cultivation when they were together, but charging head-on against a 6th Order Monster Beast would be incredibly stupid, especially when they were not prepared.

"I see." Hu Mei'er nodded.

"And after we leave this hidden valley, don't expose your cultivation. If there's a fight, let me take charge and only kill weaker enemies from behind." Hu Jiao'er ordered.

"Why?" Hu Mei'er asked, tilting her head.

"Because if you use your strength, I doubt you can hide your cultivation base; you practically jumped four stages in a few days. It's always good to hide some things." Hu Jiao'er explained, making her little sister nod.

"I'll keep that in mind, Big sis."

While Hu Mei'er was better at strategic planning, Hu Jiao'er had better survival instincts, so the two sisters perfectly balanced each other's strengths and weaknesses.

"For now, let's explore the central region of the hidden valley." Hu Jiao'er said, knowing that all the 5th and 4th Order Monster Beasts within the edges of the hidden valley had already been taken care of by the two of them.

If possible, Hu Jiao'er wanted to break through to the 9th Stage of the True Element Realm before leaving this hidden valley since they were at the peak of the 8th Stage.

Having made the decision, the Hu Sisters activated their movement skills and dashed towards the centre of the valley, occasionally meeting a few Monster Beasts, but as they moved closer to the valley's centre, they no longer encountered any Monster Beasts.

They could not even see traces left by Monster Beasts.

"What is that...?" Hu Mei'er, who was looking at a distance, suddenly muttered.

"What is it?" Hu Jiao'er asked, placing her hand on the hilt of her sword.

"It's nothing dangerous, but it's better to see for yourself." Hu Mei'er replied, and Hu Jiao'er relaxed her vigilance a little.

After travelling for another two thousand metres, the Hu Sisters came face to face with two enormous skeletons, and just by standing a hundred metres away from them, they could tell that those skeletons once belonged to powerful monster beasts.

After looking at those skeletons from afar, the Hu Sisters walked forward, and Hu Jiao'er commented. "These two must've killed each other."

"From the kind of pressure their skeletons are giving, they should've been above the Immortal Ascension Realm." Hu Mei'er added.

"Maybe Transcendent Realm?" Hu Jiao'er stretched her hand, gently touching one of the white skeletons, but as soon as she did, a burst of noise rang out and the bones crumbled instantly. Soon after that, both skeletons collapsed into a pile of dust.

"Big Sis..." Hu Mei'er looked at the pile of dust with a smile. "I think I found a way for us to break through to the 9th Stage of the True Element Realm."

"You mean...?"

"The situation must be pretty rough in this place."

"From what I can see, there is another large group of cultivators fighting together against various Monster Beasts, apart from the man and woman in front of us."

"I see."

Sitting on the branch of a tree, the Hu Sisters looked at the man and woman who were desperately fighting for their lives against a dozen or so monster beasts, but not all of those beasts belonged to the same species, so their organised attack on the pair of cultivators was strange, with most of them being 4th Order.

If everything went well, the two cultivators would survive the situation, but there were still three 5th Order monster beasts for them to deal with.

"What should we do, Big sis?"

The Hu Sisters had been roaming around this area for almost half a day, getting a graps of the situation, and while they had a general idea of what was going on, there wasn't enough information to make any major moves.

"Regardless of what we do in the future, we need to get all the information we can, so let's save those two first. And if the monster beast tamers can only control 5th Order Monster Beasts..." Hu Jiao'er stood up, jumping forward. "... There isn't much problem for the two of us."

But if they could control a 6th Order Monster Beast, the situation might end up turning out for the worst, even if the Hu Sisters were to go all out.

"Hm? Big sis isn't using her sword?" Hu Mei'er watched as her elder sister dashed towards the three 5th Order Monster Beasts, and before anyone on the battlefield could realise anything...

Boom!*

With a single punch to its stomach, Hu Jiao'er killed one of the three monster beasts.

"... Her strength is as inhumane as ever, but why is she fighting like a brute?"

Even though both Hu Jiao'er and Hu Mei'er now had similar cultivation bases, Hu Jiao'er's physical strength was at least five or six times greater than Hu Mei'er's, who was slightly below average when compared to other 9th Stage True Element Cultivators.

"Forget it. I'll help out, too." Hu Mei'er raised her left hand towards the battlefield, condensing a bow and arrow from her True Qi, making sure to limit her strength as much as possible and only target the 4th Order Monster Beasts.

And thanks to their intervention, it only took about five minutes for dozen of monster beasts to turn into Blood Beads, and Hu Mei'er also jumped forward, landing next to her older sister.

"Thank you for saving our lives. We'll remember this favour."

The man and the woman cupped their fists towards the Hu Sisters, and Hu Jiao'er asked.

"Can you tell us what's going on with the Monster Beasts?"

"We can." The woman replied, explaining the general situation that had occurred after the Hu Sisters left for the hidden valley.

After getting the minimal information they could get from the injured pair, the Hu Sisters allowed the two to take some blood beads from the monster beasts and recover their depleted True Qi.

Even if the Hu Sisters were to absorb these Blood Beads, it wouldn't help them for the most part because the three strongest Monster Beasts they killed barely matched the 4th Stage True Element Realm Cultivators.

"So it's the cultivators from the Tian Lang Dynasty?" Hu Jiao'er muttered.

"What do you plan on doing, Big sis?" Hu Mei'er asked.

"What we came here to do... The Tian Lang Dynasty Cultivators." Hu Jiao'er smiled. "Let's kill them and absorb their Blood Beads."

The Tian Lang Dynasty Cultivators were the strongest individuals here, so absorbing their Blood Beads might help the Hu Sisters break through to the Immortal Ascension Realm in one fell swoop.

"If that's what you say." Hu Mei'er added.
