However, as the Yin energy on the Soul-Severing Spear erupted, all those blood-red lights were torn apart.
He retreated hastily, but was instantly torn open by the Soul-Severing Spear, leaving a huge wound. Almost instantly, the flesh around the wound was licked clean by a scarlet demonic shadow, even revealing the hideous white bones.
The Second Lotus Saint Envoy quickly formed hand seals, and his figure began to merge into the ground, disappearing in an instant.
The White Lotus Sect is not only skilled in various evil martial arts, but some of their secret techniques are also very troublesome, such as the earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of secret technique used by the Second Lotus Saint Envoy) right now.
However, the next moment, a blood-red light flashed on the Soul-Severing Spear in Yang Cheng's hand, and a scream came from the ground, with faint traces of crimson blood seeping out.
Blood Curse!
After the Soul-Severing Spear was upgraded, even the power of the Blood-Devouring Blade Soul increased significantly.
After consuming a portion of the opponent's flesh and blood, a blood curse can be cast to kill the opponent.
The more flesh and blood it devours, the stronger the power of the flesh and blood curse becomes.
Of course, Yang Cheng thinks this is somewhat of a double-edged sword.
If the flesh and blood devoured reaches the point where it can kill the opponent with a single curse, then there's no need for a blood curse. The opponent will be almost completely devoured, leaving only a skeleton. How can you not kill the opponent then?
Therefore, it is unlikely that one can directly curse and kill another person using a blood curse.
However, Yang Cheng activated the Blood Curse at this moment, which directly severely injured the Second Lotus Saint Envoy.
The Soul-Severing Spear pierced the ground, lifting up the corpse of the Second Lotus Saint Envoy and throwing it behind him.
The remaining White Lotus Cult members had already begun to flee when Yang Cheng first launched the Slaughtering Charge, but they were pursued and killed by Ye Meiniang and Chen Da leading the elites of the Zhenwu Hall.
Yang Cheng still only gave them one hour, and even if they couldn't finish the chase, he immediately headed straight for the next city.
Although Liyang City was also in dire need of management, Yang Cheng had no time to waste.
He was afraid that if he arrived late, the White Lotus Sect members would escape!
Behind Liyang City lies Fancheng, the central city of Hebei Prefecture, which is specially guarded by the Seven Lotus Saints, whose strength ranks among the top in the White Lotus Sect.
The Seven Lotus Saint Envoy was over fifty years old, wearing a Taoist robe embroidered with seven lotuses, and had a rather otherworldly and ethereal air about him.
However, this prosperous city has almost become a dead city. Many people have been captured by him to refine Blood Spirit Pills. This person is more brutal than the First Lotus Saint Envoy and the Second Lotus Saint Envoy.
"What!? That Grand Commander Yang Cheng of the Zhenwu Hall has fought across three hundred miles in half a day, killing one Lotus Saint Envoy and two Lotus Saint Envoys, and is heading straight for my Fancheng?"
The Seven Lotus Saints' faces showed shock and horror, they could hardly believe the message being delivered by the White Lotus Cult members in front of them.
The nine holy envoys of the White Lotus Sect are all grandmasters, and not only are they martial arts grandmasters, but they also know various secret techniques of the White Lotus Sect. Their strength is even greater than that of ordinary martial arts grandmasters.
However, they were killed as easily as chickens within half a day. Who is this Grand Commander Yang Cheng of Zhenwu Hall?
Yang Cheng was very famous in the capital because he had earned his military achievements there.
However, while many people in the martial arts world may know about Zhenwu Hall, Yang Cheng's name is not particularly well-known.
After all, he had been in seclusion for three years. Apart from martial artists who frequently traveled to the capital and had heard of Yang Cheng's reputation, most of the martial arts world had long forgotten that Zhenwu Hall also had a powerful Grand Commander who had even killed Xuanji, the head of the Bodhi Zen Hall of Shaolin Temple.
The Seven Lotus Saints no longer had time to investigate Yang Cheng's background.
He only knew that he now had two choices: either escape or stay put.
The White Lotus sect is now sweeping across the three prefectures of Henan, Hebei, and Qinghe. Henan prefecture is the White Lotus sect's stronghold, which had already been established before the rebellion.
Hebei Commandery and Qinghe Commandery were conquered later and were just beginning to be integrated at this time.
If he were to flee without even seeing the other person's face, not only would he be unable to escape the punishment of the White Lotus Mother, but the other holy envoys might also take advantage of his misfortune.
The Seven Lotus Saint Envoy trembled uncontrollably at the thought of the cruel punishments in the White Lotus Sect.
After thinking for a long time, the Seven Lotus Saint Envoy gritted his teeth and said, "Immediately go to Henan County to inform the other Saint Envoys that the imperial court has sent the Zhenwu Hall to suppress my White Lotus Sect."
"The Grand Commander of the Zhenwu Hall, Yang Cheng, possesses unfathomable strength and has immediately come to Fancheng to provide assistance!"
After sending someone to request reinforcements, the Seven Lotus Saint Envoy immediately dispatched people to reinforce the city walls, preparing all kinds of bows, crossbows, arrows, and various formations.
He had no intention of confronting Yang Cheng head-on; instead, he wanted to defend Fancheng to the death and wait for the help of other White Lotus Sect envoys.
