Zuan originally thought it would be a fierce battle, and even hoped that the two would fight to the death so that he could reap the benefits. But this is how it turned out.
Isn't Zang Ao a bit too useless?
He found that things had been going badly since he arrived at this great tomb. He had originally thought that Zhao Hao and the Ghost King would both be severely injured, but that didn't happen. He had just thought that Sun En and Zang Ao would both be severely injured, but it turned out to be a one-sided affair. It was really too much.
Was Zang Ao faking it? How could he have died so easily?
Sun En shared the same concern and unleashed several more bolts of lightning from a distance. Zang Ao's corpse, aside from emitting a few more plumes of smoke, showed no further reaction, clearly indicating that he was completely dead.
Sun En was still worried, so he came to his side and checked him over before finally letting out a sigh of relief: "He really is dead. It's too easy for you to die so easily."
With his level of cultivation, it's impossible for him to be wrong in judging whether someone is dead or not.
The Four Recluses of Liangshan, who had initially held some hope, were devastated upon hearing the news. With their eldest brother dead, what hope did they have left?
Unable to maintain their formation any longer, they all fled outside.
Sun En snorted coldly, pointed in that direction, and a bolt of lightning struck the group.
The Four Recluses of Liangshan cried out in pain and stumbled to the ground, where they were quickly surrounded and attacked by the heavenly soldiers and generals who had caught up with them.
They were barely holding on thanks to their combined attack technique. Now that their escape formation was broken and they were paralyzed by the lightning strike, they were no match for the lightning and were quickly hacked into mincemeat.
Wang Youjun felt a tightness around his neck. In terms of status in the martial arts world, each of the Four Recluses of Liangshan was about the same as him. He never expected to die here so easily.
Having dealt with Zang Ao and the others, Sun En breathed a sigh of relief before looking at Jing Teng and the others: "Miss Jing, I've avenged you. Now it's time to hand over the Immortal Fate to me."
Jing Teng's gaze fell on Zang Ao's charred corpse, his expression neither sad nor happy: "Brother Zu just told you that Zhao Hao has taken away your chance at immortality. If you chase after him now, you might still have a chance to catch up. If you wait any longer, it will be truly gone."
Sun En smiled and shook his finger: "Miss Jing, that's not right of you. I'm helping you get revenge, but you're trying to fool me with these words. As far as I know, the 'Baopu Zhenjing' should be divided into inner and outer chapters. The outer chapters are just about persuading people to do good and the way to govern the world. If nothing unexpected happens, what that Zhao Hao stole should be the outer chapters."
"The real inner chapters should be here."
"How did you know?" Jing Teng's expression finally changed.
Qiu Honglei, Chu Chuyan, and the other girls were startled, and then they understood why Jing Teng hadn't seemed to be in a hurry from the beginning.
Qiu Honglei tugged at Zu An's sleeve: "Did you already know?"
Zuan nodded: "When we passed by that Earth Flame Demon, didn't I suggest that Miss Jing fly over the lava? At that time, we took the opportunity to write words on each other's palms to communicate. I reminded her that she must not take Zhao Hao to the Immortal Fate, otherwise we would all be finished."
"She reassured me, and since she said that, I naturally chose to believe her."
At the time, Zhao Hao was focused on checking whether the others were using their spiritual energy to transmit messages, and he did not expect that the two would choose the most primitive method.
Qiu Honglei felt relieved. It seemed that she had misunderstood him before. Oh dear, how embarrassing.
But just because someone says that, you choose to believe them? Who is she to you anyway?
Anger from Qiu Honglei: +23 +23 +23...
Sensing her resentment, Zu'an laughed and said, "Now you understand, right? Otherwise, did you really think I was a lecherous woman who offered to help her?"
"Isn't that right?" Qiu Honglei's face hardened, and her gaze fell on the two people's intertwined hands, pulling them into her arms.
The anger value from Qiu Honglei +233 +233 +233...
Fortunately, Sun En's words saved Zu An from the predicament: "This was something Zang Ao mentioned unintentionally when he was chatting with him back then. Come to think of it, it was you who revealed it to him."
Jing Teng's face turned pale: "Back then, I really misjudged people. I just mentioned unintentionally that the Immortal Lord was going to write a book in two volumes, and I didn't expect him to take it to heart and be able to deduce in a short time that Zhao Hao took away the outer volume."
Back then, the Immortal Lord Baopu sensed the wickedness of people's hearts and the cruelty and bloodthirstiness of almost everyone, which led to the rampant spread of demons in the world. He knew that he could not completely change this world by relying solely on personal strength. He could only stabilize the world, bring peace to the world, and then educate the people. Only in this way could the world be gradually changed.
This is also the purpose of his writing "Outer Chapters". In his mind, the value of "Outer Chapters" is no less than that of "Inner Chapters". After all, "Inner Chapters" can only help one person, while "Outer Chapters" can help all people in the world.
Previously, the lingering remnant of the Immortal Lord Baopu could sense the imperial aura on Zhao Hao and thought that the other party was a newly emerged emperor of this world with the destiny to unify the world, so he did not make a move against him and even tacitly allowed the "Extra Chapter" to be passed on to him.
Little did he know that Zhao Hao had absolutely no interest in the art of governing the country and saving the world; what he wanted to obtain was to cultivate his own "Inner Chapter"!
Now, after Zhao Hao had just seized the "Baopu Zhenjing" (True Scripture of Embracing Simplicity), he fled at top speed. Having already obtained the opportunity to become an immortal, why should he linger in this dangerous tomb?
After casually dealing with a monster and a group of ignorant cultivators along the way, he successfully reached the outside of the great tomb. He quickly found a secluded spot and eagerly opened the immortal treasure he had obtained.
Looking at the pure immortal aura emanating from each page, Zhao Hao trembled.
With trembling hands, I opened the "Baopu Zhenjing" and read the text with almost worshipful reverence.
Surprisingly, the content wasn't as mysterious and difficult to understand as I had imagined; on the contrary, I was able to grasp it at a glance.
