Zhang Yan and Meng Yao were squatting behind a tree in the distance, quietly watching the two of them. Feeling the suffocating atmosphere, Zhang Yan really wanted to see who was the stronger one between them, but right now, it was the best time for Zhang Yan to head to Yellow Spring.

Therefore, Zhang Yan immediately made a decision and gave up on watching the battle between the two experts from the side. Instead, he quietly walked towards the top of Bao Du Mountain, but this was only because Zhang Yan felt that his movements were very secretive, and the Ghost Messenger and Meng Xiuming in the distance subconsciously looked towards the direction Zhang Yan had gone. Ghost Messenger let out a cold laugh, and killing intent filled his eyes, but Zhang Yan's cultivation was not even a threat to Ghost Messenger at all.

On the other hand, Meng Xiuming suddenly became spirited, and said excitedly: "I am looking for those two, I hope that Lord Ghost Messenger will not obstruct me, and hand the two of them over to me, if I capture the two of them, I will not disturb you, I hope that you can hand over the stage."

However, Meng Xiuming rejoiced that the Ghost Messenger in front of him did not even put him in his eyes, and it had been a long time since he last fought with anyone, hence, he did not stop Meng Xiuming from accumulating his energy, and stood there waiting for Meng Xiuming to unleash his sword technique to the limit. Ghost Messenger also wanted to see just how powerful it was.

Meng Xiuming also saw the arrogance of the Ghost Messenger, and only coldly snorted in his heart: "Just you wait, you will regret your arrogance."

"I'll show you my Piercing Sword now," Meng Xiuming bellowed out, and then, the sword in front of his chest was instantly flung out by Meng Xiuming, only to see Meng Xiuming's treasured sword flying as fast as an arrow, flashing in the air with a white light, and instantly appearing in front of Ghost Messenger, directly thrusting towards his throat. Meng Xiuming's mouth revealed a smile, thinking that this sword would definitely be able to instantly kill Ghost Messenger, and in the end, this was already Meng Xiuming's strongest sword.

But the following scene completely stunned Meng Xiuming. He saw that the Ghost Messenger was still standing there without moving, and still maintained that disdainful cold smile as he looked at Meng Xiuming, and when Meng Xiuming's sword arrived in front of the Ghost Messenger, it was as though he had encountered an extremely strong obstruction, as he was unable to enter in the slightest. The only thing he could do was to erupt this powerful Spirit Energy that was spinning around the location of the fist in front of the Ghost Messenger, as if they had sunk into a quagmire.

Seeing that, Meng Xiuming did not know what to say, he never expected that Ghost Messenger's strength would be so strong, to be able to block his sword strike without fighting, just his Qi and Spirit Energy Shield, Meng Xiuming instantly knew that the gap between him and Ghost Messenger was huge, he was not a match for Ghost Messenger, if he stayed, he could only wait for death.

Without a care for his face and dignity, he did not even bother with his beloved swords anymore as he crazily ran down the Bao Du Mountain's mountain. Meng Xiuming only had one thought in his mind, and that was to quickly escape from this place. He did not want to die here, he did not want to die in Yellow Spring Road for nothing.

However, the Ghost Messenger snorted and said in disappointment: "I had thought that you would have some powerful moves, but it turns out you only have this little strength, you really disappoint me, since that's the case, I will send you to hell," The Ghost Messenger suddenly disappeared from his original position as he spoke, and the next time he appeared, he was already in front of Meng Xiuming with Meng Xiuming's sword in his hand. The Ghost Messenger coldly said: "Run? Do you think you can run away? There is no one in Bao Du Mountain who can escape my pursuit. Weren't you very good at pretending before? Why do you want to run now? "

Meng Xiuming was so scared that he immediately knelt on the ground and begged for forgiveness: "Previously, I was blind to not recognize Mt. Tai, I hope that you, Lord Ghost Messenger can be magnanimous, with your noble hands, let me go."

Ghost Messenger shook his head and said: "I will not let you go, no matter how much you beg, it's useless. This way, you can only make me look down on you even more, as long as you step into the Bao Du Mountain without permission, I will kill you all. This is a rule, and it's a rule made by the Ghost Emperor, even I can only enforce it."

Just as Ghost Messenger was speaking, Meng Xiuming who was originally kneeling on the ground suddenly erupted, and directly rushed towards Ghost Messenger, a dagger appearing in his hand, he used his last bit of Spirit Energy, and prepared to ambush Ghost Messenger.

But Ghost Messenger acted as if he had seen through everything, he sneered and grabbed Meng Xiuming's dagger, immediately kicking Meng Xiuming away, following that, he arrived in front of Meng Xiuming in a flash, without saying a word, he raised his sword and used Meng Xiuming's sword to directly slice apart Meng Xiuming's body, and pierced through his heart.

The Ghost Messenger coldly said: "A villain like you does not even have the chance to become a ghost." As he said that, a large amount of black Qi suddenly surged out from Ghost Messenger's body, and instantly surrounded Meng Xiuming's corpse, following which, Meng Xiuming's soul let out a miserable scream, which was then completely absorbed by the Ghost Messenger.

Ghost Messenger killed Meng Xiuming, and after he devoured his soul, it was as if he had obtained Meng Xiuming's memories. The Ghost Messenger looked at the spot where Zhang Yan had disappeared with great interest, then laughed: "I never thought that there would be such an interesting person. Interesting, I'd like to see where you guys can run off to."

Ghost Messenger looked around as he spoke, and frowned: "Strange, why did their auras disappear? How was this possible? How could there be someone in the Bao Du Mountain who could conceal his presence? However, since you have come to Bao Du Mountain, you must be heading towards that place, "the Ghost Messenger said as his figure flashed and he disappeared from where he stood.

And at this time, Zhang Yan and Zhang Yan, under the cover of the Pure Heart Lotus's energy, had already quickly ran towards the mountainside of Bao Du Mountain. Through the Pure Heart Lotus's guidance, Zhang Yan already knew that the Yellow Spring was at the mountainside surrounded by the Bao Du Mountain's sea of clouds, thus, Zhang Yan quickly ran over there.

Zhang Yan watched as he walked to the mountainside and entered the place that was surrounded by clouds and sea. He then searched around the Bao Du Mountain, searching for the pool that the Pure Heart Lotus mentioned, but was unable to find it even after a long time, Zhang Yan could not help but feel anxious, after all, he could feel that the Ghost Messenger's powerful Qi was nearing them. If the Ghost Messenger were to rush over, all his plans would have been in vain, and all his efforts along the way would have been for naught.

Just as Zhang Yan was looking anxiously, Meng Yao suddenly pointed at an ancient tree and asked: "Is it the pond behind the tree?"

Zhang Yan heard and looked over, only to find that there was indeed an inconspicuous small pond behind this ancient tree. This small pond only had a radius of less than ten meters and the surrounding area was covered in dense grass, causing Zhang Yan to not notice it for a moment. After Zhang Yan saw this pond, he asked the Pure Heart Lotus: "Is it this pond?"

The Pure Heart Lotus heard and said: "It should be this pool, just that I haven't been here for so many years, and the surrounding area has changed and I can't differentiate between them now, but this pool is probably the only place in Bao Du Mountain, Qi Yu's place doesn't have water at all, so I'm sure this is the place."

Hearing that, Zhang Yan immediately walked towards the pond, but right at this time, a cold voice sounded out behind him, making him feel as if he had fallen into an icehouse, even causing his heart to grow cold.

"Where else do you want to run to?"
