Chapter 618: Chapter 176: Dice Bone Demon God, What’s Going On with You?

“I’ve killed Wulan!” Ning Zhuo’s spirit soared.

He was merely at the Foundation Establishment Stage, but on the battlefield, he had still managed to kill a Golden Core Level cultivator with considerable dominance.

In terms of combat power, Wulan was no ordinary Golden Core; he was undoubtedly one of the stronger cultivators among those at the Golden Core Stage!

“The Cultivation Hundred Skills are like levers, continuously magnifying the force on the fulcrum.”

“Through Mechanical Techniques and Battle Formations, I consolidate military power and enhance myself. It’s not strange to slay a Golden Core Level powerhouse.”

Ning Zhuo quickly calmed down.

“How much merit is the killing of a Golden Core strongman worth?”

“It’s nothing to be overly excited about.”

“What I should be thinking about is how to kill more Golden Core Cultivators, and even enemies at the Nascent Soul Level!”

Tu Ming, who had just been at the scene, had already fled.

This High Priest of the Hundred Poison Tribe, after escaping from an ambush last time, has once again taken the initiative to flee.

“I wonder if Shen Qinghe can catch up to him?”

“Shen Qinghe is a famous Nascent Soul Level cultivator from the nation of Embroidery, who primarily cultivates the Green Spirit Purifying Poison Scripture and specializes in overcoming Poison Cultivators.”

“But Tu Ming is the local snake here, familiar with the terrain, and it’s not impossible that he had pre-arranged a Teleportation Array.”

Ning Zhuo pondered for a moment, then immediately withdrew his thoughts and directed his battle-eager eyes toward the purple-black poison fog.

Diao Ye, enshrouded in the poison fog, was utterly chilled!

The three of them had set out together, and now with the strongest, Tu Ming, having fled, and Wulan, of equal cultivation level, reduced to a corpse, only he was left.

It was truly a difficult situation to handle single-handedly!

“Escape!” Diao Ye shouted loudly, frantically channeling his mana to conjure hundreds of poison fog clones, each darting off in different directions.

These poison fog clones, cloaked in black and purple, were meant to deceive and distract, with Diao Ye himself also wrapping his body in a layer of purple-black poison fog.

“Where do you think you’re going!” Zhang Hei bellowed, waving his Black Snake Spear with both mana and military power coursing through, deploying the Military Art–Great Army Overwhelm.

A vast wave of soldiers surged forth, submerging most of the poison fog clones.

Innate–Purple Bearded Shocking Swallow!

Guan Hong also used his innate ability to immobilize a small number of poison fog clones, with the blade light of Blood Dragon Saber following swiftly after.

Diao Ye, who was hiding among them, had his purple-black poison fog disguise shattered.

Liu Er, wielding the Xuanhuang Sword, immediately struck at him.

Diao Ye’s eyes widened with furious resolve: “If you want my life, at least one of you will have to stay behind as my burial companion!”

Poison Technique–Nether Poison Return!

Diao Ye’s entire body turned purple, transforming into a purple poison being. He turned around and charged straight at Liu Er.

Liu Er was startled and quickly retreated.

But Diao Ye was extraordinarily fast, quickly closing the distance, and was about to reach Liu Er.

At the critical moment, Guan Hong rushed to support.

“Do not harm my elder brother!”

Guan Hong extended his right arm, striking out forcefully.

Martial Arts–Right Arm Block.

His right arm erupted with a mysterious light, acting like a shield, intercepting the desperately counterattacking Diao Ye.

Boom.

The next moment, Diao Ye self-detonated with a thunderous explosion.

In the blast, a purple-black shockwave rushed in all directions. Amidst it, a Poison Spear the size of a palm but extraordinarily sharp burst forth, piercing through the mysterious light and stabbing into the bone of Guan Hong’s right arm.

Even a tough man like Guan Hong couldn’t help but roar lowly due to the intense pain.

“Second brother!” Liu Er rushed over, casting a spell, which landed on Guan Hong’s right arm wound.

Within just a few breaths, the wound had already corroded to the bone, leaving only skeletal remnants.

Under Liu Er’s spellcasting, the bones were narrowly saved from rotting into two pieces.

Guan Hong put away the Blood Dragon Saber, grabbing his right forearm with his left hand as he staggered back into the ranks of the military formation.

This made Ning Zhuo’s heart skip a beat.

“War is dangerous and unpredictable!”

“I must remain cautious.”

“Even the formidable Guan Hong has been injured; if I were to end up in the same situation, my predicament would be even more difficult.”

“After all, my foundation in Body Cultivation is far inferior to that of the Three Generals, Liu, Guan and Zhang.”

Ning Zhuo now realized that in such large-scale battles, cultivators with a foundation in Body Cultivation were at a considerable advantage.

According to the Three Superior Sect Techniques that Ning Zhuo practiced, there were no weaknesses.

But at present, Ning Zhuo was still more skilled in spells.

It wasn’t that he had been lazy in his cultivation or that the techniques were not comprehensive, rather he simply hadn’t had enough time.

Ning Zhuo was only sixteen years old now.

Previously at Medicine King Valley, he had greatly improved his close combat abilities. However, this improvement, when compared to the likes of Golden Core Level elites such as Liu, Guan, and Zhang, was still lacking by a lot.

Cleaning up the battlefield was not difficult.

Because this time, the opponents of the Three Generals Camp were only three.

Wulan’s corpse was collected by Ning Zhuo, and Diao Ye, having self-detonated, had even his Golden Core destroyed, leaving nothing but bone fragments.

Cleaning up the battlefield for the Three Generals Camp mainly involved gathering the corpses of their comrades.

Even this task was not something ordinary cultivators could achieve.

Because handling the bodies poisoned post-mortem, without proper and complete methods, merely approaching them was dangerous due to the risk of poisoning.

The resources of the Three Generals Camp were ultimately limited. After Ning Zhuo sacrificed more than a dozen Mechanical Puppets and Liu Er personally took action, they managed to temporarily deal with their comrades’ corpses and then gathered them up one by one.

In the Cultivation World, there are many methods of the Demon Path that are particularly adept at utilizing these corpses.

Thus, corpses on the battlefield are often needed to be retrieved.

These corpses will be transported back to their respective countries, with most buried in their familial clan lands.

Not only does this signify the return of the leaves to their roots, but it also benefits their respective families, helping the deceased clansmen to quickly reunite with their ancestors in the Netherworld, avoiding becoming lonely ghosts and spirits.
