Revelation of the Way of Heaven

Chapter 290 Blood Witch Clan

Suddenly, the moon emerged from the clouds, its mercury-like light bathing the entire island and falling upon him, leaving a dark shadow behind him. A constant breeze blew through the forest, causing Qin Xiaochuan's clothes to flutter loudly.

A dark figure moved silently in the woods beside him, making a slight rustling sound, but Qin Xiaochuan paid it no mind, instead quietly gazing at the bright moon in the sky. After all, no matter how well the surrounding shadows were concealed, they were still within the range of his mental perception.

A sharp whistle suddenly pierced the night. Upon hearing the whistle, all the Gu eagles suddenly retreated, hovering only fifty meters away from Qin Xiaochuan and his companions, watching them.

Instead, a group of blood witches with flapping black wings suddenly flew into the air and tightly surrounded Qin Xiaochuan. At the same time, a group of blood witches also emerged from the shadows on the mountain peak and surrounded Qin Xiaochuan. Each blood witch exuded a cold killing intent, as if they were about to tear the person who appeared in front of them to pieces at any moment.

"Oh no, we seem to have overextended ourselves," Guo Shiyi exclaimed in surprise as she looked at the scene.

"No, it's just right." Qin Xiaochuan said calmly, and looked at the three people standing in front of the boulder. In his mental space, he could tell that these three people were the strongest. The man in the middle had a spiritual power level of 8. The two people standing next to him, a man and a woman, both looked to be in their 30s and had a spiritual power level of 7.

"Who are you? How dare you trespass here?" the man in the middle shouted.

Qin Xiaochuan didn't answer him. Instead, he pulled Han Kexin into his mental space and asked her, "Do you know these three people?"

Han Kexin replied, "I know him. The one in the middle is Yueyin, one of the six hidden guards who protected the previous Blood Witch King. The one on the left is Fengyin. The one on the right looks familiar. He seems to be someone from the Imperial Guard. He should be a captain, but I can't remember his name."

"Okay, I understand." Qin Xiaochuan nodded, and Han Kexin withdrew from his mental space.

Just as the two were talking in the mental space, the captain of the Imperial Guard on the right, seeing that Qin Xiaochuan remained silent, became somewhat enraged and shouted, "How dare you be so arrogant! Take my sword first!"

Just as the captain of the Imperial Guard finished speaking, his greatsword was already drawn from its sheath. With a leap, he appeared in front of Qin Xiaochuan, and a white, cold light, carrying the force of thunder, slashed down at Qin Xiaochuan's head.

The Imperial Guard captain's sword-drawing and leaping movements were completed almost in an instant, without a moment's hesitation. His speed was so fast that it was impossible to defend against. However, Qin Xiaochuan seemed to have anticipated the enemy's move. He easily dodged the greatsword attack by tilting his body to the side, and then quickly swung his right fist at the captain in the air.

Seeing this, the captain quickly flapped his wings, and his whole body flew in a strange arc in front of Qin Xiaochuan's fist, dodging Qin Xiaochuan's attack. Before he could turn around completely, the giant sword in his hand was swung up again.

"Greatsword Technique - Moonlight Blade!" The Imperial Guard captain shouted coldly. A cold light flashed on his greatsword, and as he turned around, he quickly slashed at Qin Xiaochuan's waist.

A dazzling silver light burst forth from his greatsword, and when the sword was swung down, even the leaves on the trees in the distance trembled, demonstrating just how terrifying the power contained within this strike was.

Just as his greatsword was about to strike Qin Xiaochuan, he suddenly felt a surge of spiritual energy rush into his mind, and his hand movements involuntarily stopped.

Although the pause was very brief, Qin Xiaochuan caught it precisely and threw another punch forward.

With a "bang," the captain didn't have time or chance to dodge Qin Xiaochuan's attack this time. Moreover, when Qin Xiaochuan hit him, he also released a small lightning net. With the support of level 9 spiritual power, the paralyzing ability of the lightning net was not something the captain of the Imperial Guard could get rid of quickly. So, without a doubt, he was punched and sent flying back to where he was standing, where he was caught by Di Yueyin who was standing nearby.

Qin Xiaochuan's actions were merely to end the battle quickly and he had no intention of harming anyone; otherwise, he would have used Samadhi True Fire instead of lightning-based spiritual power.

Despite this, seeing the captain of the Imperial Guard defeated in just two moves still caused an uproar among the Blood Witches. In an instant, everyone was enraged and charged towards Qin Xiaochuan.

"Hmph!" Qin Xiaochuan snorted coldly, his eyes flashing coldly. A vast and pure spiritual energy instantly spread outwards, carrying an overwhelming pressure that instantly shattered the minds of most of the Blood Witches.

Then a strange phenomenon appeared before Han Kexin and Guo Shiyi. The blood witches who had been so aggressive stopped attacking almost at the same time, their faces showing horror. Some of the blood witches with lower spiritual power levels even knelt on one knee and bowed to Qin Xiaochuan.

The wind suddenly stopped, and the world became silent. The bright moon hung high, and its silvery light shone on Qin Xiaochuan's face, revealing a cold and dignified countenance. Han Kexin, Guo Shiyi, and Yueyin, Fengyin, and the others standing on the other side were all stunned by the scene before them.

Among them, Yueyin, Fengyin, and the others were even more shocked, because they not only witnessed this unbelievable scene, but also truly felt a powerful aura emanating from the young man on the boulder. Even with their cultivation levels, they subconsciously felt a sense of horror.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" Yueyin finally realized that the young man in front of him was not simple, so he had to ask again. However, compared to the previous question, his voice was much calmer this time.

"Don't worry, we're here to deliver intelligence to you," Qin Xiaochuan said calmly, though he was actually relieved.

"Thank goodness it worked." He couldn't help but think to himself. In fact, it was the first time he had used that group intimidation mental attack skill. The inspiration for this skill came from the illusion of Emperor Zhuanxu fighting Xiangliu that he saw in the Heavenly Stele.

He was deeply impressed by the scene of Emperor Zhuanxu scaring away countless demons with a single glance. At that time, he thought that his own spiritual space could achieve the same effect. He had been trying to develop it ever since, and today he finally had the opportunity to use it.

"What intelligence?" Yueyin relaxed when she saw that Qin Xiaochuan was not hostile, but she still had many questions about the mysterious young man in front of her.

"A conspiracy specifically targeting you," Qin Xiaochuan said slowly.
