Chapter 143: Pure Elemental Jade Bones
"This" The Elders hesitated.
The Great Elder, Nie Yuan, hesitated and said, "Elder Huo, isn't this not a good idea? Since that Su Zhan has shown no intention of killing us, why not let it go? What if Su Zhan's meridians weren't destroyed by the Saint Qi Pill's medicinal power? Wouldn't we be walking into our own deaths?"
"Humph! Idiots!"
Elder Huo snorted coldly, "I've been practicing alchemy for over two hundred years, and I'm well-versed in the effects of various medicinal pills. How could I be mistaken?"
"That Su Zhan is so young, and he was able to kill Chen Ye. He wields his own lifesource divine sword and possesses a divine body. Aren't you curious about what other treasures or opportunities he has on him?"
"Furthermore, even though he didn't kill us, he forbade us from collecting spiritual stones and taxes within a radius of ten thousand miles. As a result, the resources we can allocate for cultivation each month are greatly reduced."
"Besides, Great Elder, now that Chen Ye is dead, the prestige of the sect is in our hands. You and I are the highest authorities. I have no interest in becoming the sect master. If you help me kill Su Zhan and take that pendant, I will strongly recommend you to become the new sect master!"
"How about it?"
Becoming the sect master of the Sole Sword Sect?
Nie Yuan's heart stirred, hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Fine! Today, I , Nie will join Elder Huo to kill Su Zhan!"
As he spoke, he turned to look at the other Golden Robe Elders who were still hesitating, "Fellow Elders, Su Zhan killed our Sect Master, which is an insult to our sect! Now we have a heaven-sent opportunity, what is there to hesitate about? Today, if we don't kill Su Zhan, I swear we won't rest!"
"Good! Since the Great Elder said so, count me in too!"
"I've disliked Su Zhan for a long time! He must be killed!"
"A First Transformation Realm brat, what's there to fear?"
"We won't rest until Su Zhan is dead!"
The crowd was filled with fervor!
It seemed like they were already victorious.
Seeing this scene, Elder Huo's face revealed a pleased smile.
"Everyone, Su Zhan is an alchemy grandmaster, and his spiritual power must be very strong. So, for now, let's not get too close to him to avoid him using some special spiritual technique to detect our whereabouts!" Elder Huo said, "Based on my calculations, in about four hours, the medicinal power of the Saint Qi Pill in his body will reach a level he can no longer suppress even if he goes all out. By then, he won't be able to use his true qi, no matter how strong his physical body is, it won't be a problem for us to deal with him!"
"Wonderful! Wonderful!"
"Elder Huo truly deserves to be the strategist of our sect, flawless calculations!"
"That kid looks like he's not even twenty, a little brat, how could he know about Elder Huo's plans?"
Elder Huo furrowed his brows and then shook his head firmly, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! I clearly saw the power of stars descending just now. If I'm correct, that was him activating his divine body, trying to suppress the medicinal power of the Saint Qi Pill."
"Now that the starlight has disappeared, it means he has failed to suppress it. At this moment, he probably sensed our presence and is deliberately pretending to be unharmed to scare us away!"
Nie Yuan hesitated for a moment, "Could it be that he has already finished refining it?"
"Finished refining it?" Elder Huo sneered, "It seems you don't understand the Saint Qi Pill at all! Let me tell you this! Even a saint cannot fully refine a Saint Qi Pill in four hours, not to mention someone like Su Zhan?"
While Nie Yuan was still hesitating, the other Elders were becoming impatient.
"I think Elder Huo is right!"
"Elder Huo is an alchemy grandmaster, doesn't he understand pills?"
"Let's go! Since we're here, if we back down now, we'll probably be held accountable by Su Zhan afterward!"
"Kill! We won't rest until Su Zhan is dead!"
After previous several hours of brainwashing through Elder Huo's incessant words, the Elders felt like victory was within their grasp, and they believed they couldn't fail. Following Elder Huo's command, they rushed forward.
Nie Yuan gritted his teeth and followed as well, but he intentionally lagged a bit and didn't charge at the forefront.
One kilometer.
Five hundred meters.
One hundred meters.
The Elder who led the charge laughed heartily, swinging his knife to strike Su Zhan from such a close range.
"Even at such a close distance, he won't be able to evade! It looks like I'll have his head"
"Bang!"
Before he could finish his sentence, Su Zhan suddenly opened his eyes, and his body was radiant with starlight as he threw a powerful punch. Then, that leading Elder's long knife shattered.
His hand shattered.
As if hit by a meteor, he didn't even have time to scream before he was blown into pieces!
Blood rained down from the sky.
