Chapter 405
Qingming used to be the Golden Core Elder of Platanus Sect, so he knew many secrets of it.
The formidable array of Platanus Sect was easily broken by Qingming and the several spies hiding in the sect.
Several black-robed cultivators rushed in with swarms of zombies.
The cultivators from Platanus Sect fought against the cultivators from Sacred Sect.
Among the cultivators in black, there were two Nascent Souls. Platanus attacked one of them, and the other went to Xiao Jinting.
“Wow, you are the talented cultivator of Green Cloud Immortal Sect. What a pity! You die right after you advanced to Nascent Soul.” The black-robed cultivator looked at Xiao Jinting, his eyes flashing with envy and cruelty.
“You don’t know who will die today,” Xiao Jinting said calmly.
Immortal Skeleton said gloomily, “You are dying, but you are still boasting.”
He waved the flag of skeleton in his hand and a gust of cold wind blew over. Countless skeleton soldiers holding weapons were summoned out from the white flag.
Xiao Jinting took out a golden lamp, which he took from the Tripod of Heaven and Earth. It was the first time Xiao Jinting used this magic weapon to attack the enemy.
Xiao Jinting pressed his palm on the golden lamp, in which the flame turned into raging fire, devouring the soldiers summoned out by Immortal Skeleton.
Under the fire attack, the skeleton soldiers turned into ashes.
The power of the golden lamp was far beyond Xiao Jinting’s imagination. He was delighted. Immortal Platanus had been worried that Xiao Jinting would not be able to ward off a medium Nascent Soul. When he saw Xiao Jinting defeated the skeleton flag of Immortal Skeleton, he was relieved.
“What is it?” Immortal Skeleton looked at the golden lamp in Xiao Jinting’s hand, his eyes flashing with desire.
He grabbed at Xiao Jinting, who waved his hand and exploded dozens of Thunder Flame Discs.
“You, you are looking for death,” Immortal Skeleton scolded angrily.
Xiao Jinting smiled coldly, “You are looking for death.”
Immortal Skeleton waved his skeleton flag, which pressed down on Xiao Jinting, who felt countless ghosts were pouncing on him as if he was in hell.
“Go up,” Xiao Jinting roared. The flame in the golden lamp rose hundreds of meters high and wrapped the skeleton flag.
“Is this supernatural fire?” Immortal Skeleton said in horror.
Xiao Jinting threw a punch at Immortal Skeleton, who said sullenly, “You dare to challenge my physique? You are only a preliminary Nascent Soul.”
Following that, Xiao Jinting punched him backwards.
Immortal Skeleton looked at Xiao Jinting with suspicious eyes. “You have practiced Heavenly Demon Body Refining Manual.”
Xiao Jinting was taken aback. The Heavenly God Sect changed the name of Heavenly Demon Body Refining Manual to Heavenly Devil Body Refining Manual, but it didn’t fool some people.
Immortal Skeleton and Xiao Jinting were fighting fiercely.
Suddenly, Immortal Skeleton had a bad feeling.
“Kill.” A sword descended towards Immortal Skeleton, who let out a scream with astonishment, “Impossible.” A sharp sword pierced through his chest.
After that, Xiao Jinting immediately put away the puppet.
Xiao Jinting didn’t lose time, taking out a dozen discs and tossing them at Immortal Skeleton, whose body soon was smashed.
A small baby flew out from Immortal Skeleton’s forehead. It looked at Xiao Jinting with resentment and fled.
Xiao Jinting did not pursue it. It was not easy to kill a Nascent Soul because the soul could be teleported out of the body. The soul of Immortal Skeleton disappeared in the blink of an eye. Knowing that he could not catch up with it, Xiao Jinting didn’t run after it.
The cultivator who fought with Platanus ran away after he saw the soul of Immortal Skeleton escape.
…
Immortal Platanus went up to Xiao Jinting and said respectfully, “Mr. Xiao, thank you.” After seeing Xiao Jinting fight in the battle, Immortal Platanus didn’t dare to underestimate him.
Xiao Jinting said indifferently, “Don’t mention it. But the soul of that guy escaped.”
Immortal Platanus smiled and said, “It’s not easy to beat the soul out of his body. He must be looking for a matching body now. It would not be easy to do that. Even if he finds it, his cultivation will be impaired. I don’t think he will show up in near future.”
Xiao Jinting nodded in agreement.
“Mr. Xiao, you don’t like to show off your abilities. I didn’t expect you to defeat a Nascent Soul at the medium level so easily. I wonder the last thing that you took out…”
Xiao Jinting glanced at him coldly without saying a word.
Immortal Platanus said awkwardly, “Sorry, it’s rude of me to ask this question.”
“Why haven’t Master Heavenly Lantern and Hermit Emei returned yet?” Xiao Jinting asked lightly.
Immortal Platanus got uneasy. “I don’t know. Perhaps they are held up by something.”
Xiao Jinting narrowed his eyes and shook his head. “They work hard usually, but they disappear at critical moments.”
His words embarrassed Immortal Platanus.
Xiao Jinting talked with Immortal Platanus for a while and left with Xu Muan. He had helped fight the enemies, and he didn’t have to clear up the mess.
Xu Muan followed Xiao Jinting and looked at him. “I think Immortal Platanus is hiding something from you.”
