Chapter 696 Chapter 698 Killing

"You don't have to waste time here. No one will come to help you if you delay any longer. Although I don't know how you got rid of Qin Heng and others from the Danhua Sect, as long as I detonate the soul ring, you will be buried with me." The red-robed Taoist said fiercely.

"Buried with him? Not necessarily! Look what's behind you?" Rong Xianxian said leisurely.

"Oh, no need to act. This is your sea of consciousness. Apart from the spirit of the artifact with just begun to awaken who was trapped by Qin Heng, who else can come in?" The red-robed Taoist sneered.

As soon as he finished speaking, the red-robed Taoist felt a pain in his soul. He turned around and was immediately shocked. "How is this possible? Qin Heng is at the Life Fire Realm. How could this elementary weapon spirit get rid of him?"

"Could it be that he has already..." The red-robed Taoist priest suddenly thought of a possibility and his face turned pale.

"You actually sought external help. Don't you want the treasures on Qin Heng and the others? Those elixirs and magic weapons are what you need most right now!" The red-robed Taoist believed that without external help, Rong Xianxian would not be able to get rid of Qin Heng and the other two. Of course, this was when the red-robed Taoist didn't know that Rong Xianxian had the misty space in her hands.

In fact, Rong Xianxian could temporarily get rid of Qin Heng and the other two by hiding in the foggy space, but this method was very risky. There was also the uncertain factor of the red-robed Taoist priest. Not to mention whether Qin Heng and the other two could see through the location of the foggy space, as long as they noticed something was wrong and set up traps or arrays in this area, trapping her here. It would become very troublesome and dangerous for her to leave in the future. Besides, her time was precious and she didn't have enough time to waste here.

For safety reasons, she reported the matter to President Jingyuan. After learning that she had information about Qin Heng and the other two, President Jingyuan sent a team from the Special Operations Department to assist.

As for the distribution of the spoils, she and President Jingyuan have reached a consensus.

"Stop, it's useless to have the map of the ancient realm. If you kill me, you won't be able to go to the fairyland at all. The ancient realm will be opened within three years. If you miss this time, you will have to wait another ten years. Can you afford to wait for the person you want to save?" The red-robed Taoist said sharply.

"Even if I can't go, it's better than being tricked by you and dying in obscurity. Besides, can't I go to the fairyland without you? You are a little too confident." Rong Xianxian didn't mean to give the red-robed Taoist priest time to speak. It was because the spirit seed was damaged in the previous battle with Qin Heng, and it moved a little slowly.

"I promise that I will never resort to trickery again. I can swear an oath with you that I will never become your enemy or do anything that is detrimental to you." The red-robed Taoist said anxiously. His last trump card to save his life had been exposed, and he really didn't have the ability to resort to trickery anymore.

The Soul-Devouring Sword's spirit has always been invincible. This time when it invaded Qin Heng's body, if it hadn't relied on its innate attributes to hold on, the spiritual consciousness that had just been awakened would have been killed by Qin Heng long ago. It was only then that Rong Xianxian realized that the soul protected by the physical body is not as fragile as the soul out of the body. The soul of a cultivator in the Life Fire Realm is also much stronger than the soul of a monster of the same level.

"Didn't you just want to die with me? Is your soul ring going to explode?" Rong Xianxian didn't respond to him. She watched coldly as the red-robed Taoist priest anxiously and fearfully resisted the sword spirit's devouring, but to no avail. The red-robed Taoist priest's soul was still being devoured bit by bit by the sword spirit, repairing the damage to the sword spirit in the previous battle.

The soul ring is the masterpiece of a rare genius weapon refiner in Lingxi Mountain. It can not only protect the separated soul from the erosion of the power of time and space, but also allow the separated soul origins to echo each other. The original purpose of the genius master who refined the soul ring was to practice the art of soul separation, but he did not expect that after the weapon was completed, it would be used more often to save lives. Under normal circumstances, cultivators above the Blood Refining Realm and below the Spirit Condensation Realm whose physical bodies are destroyed have only one chance to possess another's body. However, cultivators with soul rings can use them to possess another's body multiple times. Although it is impossible to achieve the Great Dao after possessing another's body, it is still a means of saving lives. What's more, even if there is no heaven-defying possession of another's body, how many people can achieve the Great Dao?

Therefore, the soul-sending ring can be regarded as a treasure that defies the heavens. However, this treasure also has its flaws. That is, the steps to operate it are a bit cumbersome and time-consuming. If the soul is controlled during this process, it cannot be used.

Although the detonation process is simple, who would be willing to detonate such a heaven-defying treasure until the very last moment when it has no hope of survival?

"You can't kill me. There is an ancestor in my clan who is at the Mahayana realm. If you kill me, you will get into big trouble!" The red-robed Taoist threatened fiercely, but unfortunately his soul was incomplete and his breath was weak at this time. Even though he showed his fangs and claws and looked ferocious, he still revealed a sense of panic.

"If I don't kill you, the trouble will be even greater, right?" Rong Xianxian sighed. The two sides were already mortal enemies. If she didn't kill him and cover up the evidence, wouldn't she be unable to sleep or eat in peace in the future?

The threatening and abusive voice of the red-robed Taoist priest gradually disappeared. The Soul-Devouring Sword, which had completely devoured the red-robed Taoist priest's soul, staggered a few steps like a drunk. With a "whoosh", it returned to the Soul-Devouring Sword. The soul-carrying ring that was flashing white light circled in a circle, disappeared, and fell into Rong Xianxian's hands.

At the same time, Rong Xianxian's eyes became blurred and she felt dizzy. Her body shook and she fell to the ground with a bang.

Rong Xianxian fainted beside the medicine garden. Ning Qingyun, who was sleeping in the wooden house, regained consciousness at this moment and sat up with a "bang". He covered his chest, because his heartbeat was slow because he had just woken up, but he felt like his heart was about to jump out of his mouth. He didn't have time to wait for his body to slowly regain consciousness, and ran out stumblingly and anxiously.

As if he had sensed something, he went straight to the entrance of the medicine garden in the foggy space and saw Rong Xianxian lying in a pool of blood at a glance.
