This series of actions only took a snap of the fingers three times. During this tiny span of time, the many trailing legendary Qi cultivators also had already covered a hundred-meter distance. Their killing move was about to bombard the giant monster. However, they bring their actions to an abrupt halt.
The honor of killing a slayed Demon Cultivator, could never belong to them independently.
Han Yi’s blast retreat just now was partly to prevent the giant monster from making a follow-up explosion if it wasn’t dead, and also to guard against other legendary Qi Cultivators covering him with their attacks.
Right now.
On the body of the giant monster with a pierced skull, a ghostly shadow suddenly emerges. It is a miniature version of the giant beast. Upon its emergence, it first pervades in an instant, then with a hideous expression, it attempts to pounce on Han Yi.
“Huohuang Evil’s Evil Spirit, what a fine thing it is.”
Just at this moment, a figure resounds from high above. The Evil Spirit that had just pounced on is now immobilized, then it seems to be sucked up into the sky by something, disappearing without a trace.
A figure in a green robe slowly descends from the sky, and its might sends a tremor through the hearts of all cultivators near the beach.
This is a Nascent Soul Stage Monarch.
Han Yi stops and pays his respects respectfull, others follow suit, including a Sword Immortal who floated through sword control, shows his respect by landing beside them.
“Greetings to Gu Xi Monarch.” Su Wanqin and another Legendary cultivator from the Stars Sea bend over to pay their respects.
Gu Xi Monarch nods, sweeps a glance over the dead Huohuang Evil, and then looks towards Han Yi who retreated quite a distance.
“Which Sect’s disciple are you?”
Han Yi raises his head: “To reply to the Monarch, I’m Han Yi, from the Xuandan Sect.”
“Shu State, Xuandan Sect.” Gu Xi Monarch nods, and with an approving tone, says: “Impressive strength, 1 shall remember your great merit.”
Following this, Gu Xi Monarch doesn’t linger. He soars into the sky and vanished in a split second.
Once he leaves, the many Legendary Cultivators take a deep look at Han Yi, as if committing him to memory, and then they ail depart one after the other.
Only a young cultivator carrying a huge sword comes forward: “I’m Shen Yuan from the Tai Xu Sect. Daoist Han, your strength is formidable. Can we be friends? in that case, Ill treat you a drink in the Tai Xu Sect.”
Having said this, he doesn’t wait for Han Yi’s response. He throws the giant sword in his hand into the sea. Then, leaping onto the sword, he directly uses the giant sword as a surfing tool. His speed far exceeds that of the sea waves. Like a low-flying cannonball, He cuts through the sea, creating towering waves on both sides.
In less than three breaths of time, the originally raging beach regains its tranquility.
On the beach lies a giant monster’s body. Not far from the body, there’s a burnt and almost extinguished pile of unknown black substance. About fifty meters from the two, Han Yi stands silently.
On the other side of the beach, the Golden Light Shuttle that flew hundreds of meters and crashed is located by the edge of the dense forest. It blasted a three-meter deep crater into the sand, causing pebbles and sand to fall and bury the head of the shuttle. Only the tail, gleaming with golden light, is visible.
Han Yi quickly runs to retrieve the Golden Light Shuttle and put it back in his storage bag. Then, he returns to the location of the monster’s body, pondering how to deal with it.
Suddenly.
An idea comes to him, his heart throbs with excitement.
“The Monster Core. Monsters who have really stepped into the level of Demon Cultivators must have a Monster Core in their bodies.”
Han Yi is not in a hurry to extract the Monster Core from the Huohuang Evil’s body. This place just underwent a violent battle, and he himself just killed Xue He of the Blood God Sect, hence he must not stay here for long.
Han Yi empties his main storage bag to make room for the giant beast.
Then, he sweeps around and uses sea water to wash away the traces of the burnt Xue He a few times. Unless someone scrutinizes closely, no traces can be detected.
Afterwards, he harnesses the Green Reed Sword to cross the sea and leave. Halfway, he throws Xue He’s jade ring into the sea.
Half a day later.
Han Yi lands on the eighteenth island. He walks into the edge of the forest, finds a safe tree hole, activates the positioning function of the jade ring, then he sits down to meditate, relieved.
Next, Han Yi begins to reflect, from the moment he saw Su Wanqin, to the appearance of the Sword Immortal, then to Shen Yuan, and after that, Xue He, the giant monster, and the Monarch.
The events that transpired on the beach of the nineteenth island happened too fast. So fast that Han Yi didn’t have any other options.
When Xue He attempted to kill him, Han Yi had no choice but to act preemptively.
When the giant monster tried to drain him, Han Yi could only give everything he got, even resorting to the Golden Light Shuttle and two first-grade premium spiritual talismans.
Killing Xue He, Han Yi could say he handled it with ease. But facing the Huohuang Evil, which had advanced to the rank of Demon Cultivator, Han Yi was extremely nervous even as he gave it his all.
After all, this was a Demon Cultivator with an inherent supernatural power, moreover, it was a speed type demon cultivator. If not for the two spirit talismans slowing it down, his Green Reed sword wouldn’t have been able to kill it.
Additionally, in the end, the Evil Spirit emerging from the Monster’s corpse was formidable. That moment, Han Yi actually didn’t possess any means to defend against it.
Because Han Yi’s divine soul, which was only at the level of the advanced ninth stage, was not that powerful. If the Evil Spirit possessed him, it would be equally lethal for him.
Fortunately, the Monarch known as Gu Xi Monarch appeared in time and resolved his crisis as if by magic.
“The Divine Soul of the Qi Cultivation Stage is too weak and after the Foundation Establishment Stage, even if the physical body dies, the Divine Soul may leave the body temporarily. Furthermore, it may apply a seizing Secret Skill. In the future, when I encounter the Foundation Establishment Stage, even if I can kill them, I must watch out for this.”
“This trip back to the sect, I need to find an opportunity to practice a Divine Soul Secret Skill, to ensure that I’m not at a disadvantage in a battle of Divine Souls against the Foundation Establishment Stage..”
