Mortal Bones

"I see."

Xu Taiping nodded slightly, then smiled faintly at the demon cultivator and said:

"Okay, you can run away. I won't take action until you get out of the valley."

The demon cultivator hesitated for a moment after hearing this, but in the end he turned around doubtfully. When he realized that Xu Taiping really didn't seem to have any intention of taking action, he suddenly ran away.

But just when he was about to leave the valley, Xu Taiping touched the ring given by Emperor Xuanhuang and took out a hard bow and an arrow engraved with the Breaking Wind rune.

This was something he picked up conveniently when he picked up the knife from Tianshu Pavilion before.

Then he nocked the arrow, drew the bow, and relaxed his fingers.

"Whoosh!——"

Following an ear-piercing sound that broke through the air, a feather arrow flew through the air from Xu Taiping's hand and shot straight towards the flying demon cultivator.

"boom!"

In just one breath, the feather arrow penetrated straight through the demon cultivator's head, and the strong wind talisman carved on the tip exploded the demon cultivator's head.

Although the bow in his hand is not even a magical weapon, it can still be regarded as a first-rate bow in the secular world.

Coupled with his blood energy at the peak of military general level and the "Piercing Yang Arrow" shooting technique that he once practiced, it is easy to kill enemies from a hundred feet away.

"Fortunately, my shooting skills haven't fallen behind either."

Xu Taiping put away his bow with a nostalgic look on his face.

The Seven Killing Sword he had just used, and the current Yang Yajing technique, were all life-saving techniques he had just entered Qingxuan.

Especially this Yang Ya. Without it for hunting wild animals, Xu Taiping might have been hungry.

…

"Uncle Zhai Mo, this person, maybe...maybe can help my human race climb to the top of the tower again!"

On the top floor of Tianshu Pavilion, after seeing Xu Taiping kill fifteen demon cultivators by himself, Gongshu Nanxing suddenly looked at Zhai Mo beside him with a hint of excitement.

"His physique and martial arts skills are indeed suitable for training in the Xuanhuang Tower, but reaching the top..."

Zhai Mo was a little unsure.

"In any case, he is at least one of the most promising monks I have seen in these years."

Gongshu Nanxing's eyes were still full of excitement.

"But if we can really reach the top and meet Emperor Xuanhuang's divine will in person, I, Xuanhuangtian, might be able to have a glimmer of hope..."

Zhai Mo suddenly murmured at this time.

"Uncle Zhai Mo, no matter what you think, I will definitely find a way to help him next. For Xuanhuangtian today, whenever there is a glimmer of hope, we must hold on tightly!"

Gongshu Nanxing took a deep breath, as if he had made some kind of determination.

Xuanhuangtian couldn't wait any longer.

"boom!……"

At this moment, in the valley ahead, Xu Taiping's whole body's energy and blood suddenly rose automatically, and the raging power of blood and energy suddenly spread like a wave.

"It turns out that you have to wait until all the demon cultivators are killed before the power of blood will be given to you."

Feeling the power of blood pouring into his body like a torrent, Xu Taiping murmured to himself in surprise.

"boom!"

When the power of blood was completely integrated into his body, Xu Taiping's body suddenly automatically transformed into the body of a wild lion.

"This power of blood actually directly restored my power of blood to the level of a martial arts master?"

Xu Taiping was a little surprised.

"Brother Rusty Lion, most of the demon cultivators you just killed are as powerful as martial arts masters and military generals. Although there are only fifteen of them, even martial arts master level warriors have to retreat three points when they encounter them. That's why The elite among the first-time tower demon cultivators!”

At this moment, Zhai Mo came to Xu Taiping with excitement on his face.

"I see."

Xu Taiping looked suddenly relieved.

"Master Rusty Lion, quickly pour all the blood into your left arm, so that the poisonous curse can be forced out."

Gongshu Nanxing also came to Xu Taiping's side at this time.

"good."

Xu Taiping nodded, and poured all the huge blood energy in his body into his left arm.

"boom!"

In the sound of an explosion of air, the black air that had been integrated into his left arm suddenly spread out from the arm.

"Whoosh!"

Seeing this, Gongshu Nanxing stretched out her fingers and quickly drew a talisman with her bloody fingers.

"boom!"

The moment the talisman was formed, a ball of flame enveloped the poisonous spell.

Demon Lord Wangyou's soul hidden in the poison curse screamed "Ah", and finally heard him growl with great hatred: "As long as the rhinoceros horn is here, none of you can get out alive!"

After saying that, the soul of Demon Lord Wangyou dissipated together with the black mist transformed by the poisonous curse.

"Huh...this poisonous curse has been completely eliminated."

Gongshu Nanxing breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you Miss Nanxing."

Xu Taiping made a fist with his left hand. After he found that the feeling in his arm was completely restored, he immediately smiled and thanked Gongshu Nanxing.

"Rumble!..."

Before Nan Xing could speak, a loud thunderous sound suddenly came from the sky above the valley.

Looking up, everyone only saw a pattern of clouds that looked like a flamingo soaring in the sky to the west of the valley.

"This is... someone is picking rosefinch fruits!"

After seeing the cloud pattern clearly, Gongshu Nanxing suddenly exclaimed.

"It must be the Rhino Horn Demon Lord. Currently, he is the only one on the first floor of the Xuanhuang Tower who has such strength!"

Zhai Mo on the side had a look of panic on his face.

"Suzaku fruit? What does this thing do?"

Xu Taiping asked with some confusion.

"After taking it, the monk's energy, blood and true energy will be restored twice as fast as normal, and this effect will last until the third floor of the Xuanhuang Tower!"

Gongshu Nanxing frowned.

"Twice? And it can last until the third floor of Xuanhuang Tower?"

Xu Taiping was a little surprised.

He was a little greedy.

"Yes, this Suzaku Fruit is the rarest spiritual fruit on the first floor of the Xuanhuang Tower. After taking it, it will be a great help for climbing to the second and third floors of the Xuanhuang Tower."

Gongshu Nanxing nodded.

"But Mr. Rusty Lion, since Rhinoceros dares to pick the Suzaku Fruit, his energy and blood must have returned to the level of a martial arts master. Plus, there are other powerful demon cultivators around him to protect him."

"So I don't suggest you fight with him now."

Zhai Mo saw that Xu Taiping seemed to be interested in competing for the Suzaku Fruit, and immediately suggested to him.

Xu Taiping thought carefully for a moment, then looked at Nan Xing and Zhai Mo and said:

"Brother Zhai Mo, Miss Nan Xing, there is one thing that I would like you two to confirm for me."

"What's the matter?" Nan Xing and Zhai Mo both looked at Xu Taiping in confusion.

Xu Taiping did not answer, but mobilized all his energy to directly upgrade his body from the state of a wild lion to the state of a python.

"boom!--"

In an instant, the violent energy of blood suddenly spread from Xu Taiping's body, pushing Zhai Mo and Gongshu Nanxing several steps away.

It was only then that Xu Taiping raised his head and confirmed to the two of them with a serious face:

"You two, with my physical strength, can I fight with that rhinoceros horn?"
