System's Super Sect-Chapter 578 - 575, Flying Sword Rises Again!

"Sect Leader Wen, I am willing to take responsibility for what my unworthy disciple did. I can offer as many White Crystals as needed... That demon’s name is Black Pattern, a being that can not only attach to a person but also instantly escape twenty miles away. Twenty miles is a distance that no one can pursue unless they are a Great Demon of the Upper Realm of Mountain Suppression within the Wing Race."

As the words fell, Situ Xiuneng engaged in a battle with Long Ke, already employing the technique of dispersing force.

When two people are fighting, whether one is attacking or defending, or both are attacking, they would not typically use force dispersal. This is because the spiritual power expenditure required for dispersing force is several times that of a clash of Vein Techniques.

Dispersing force represents the decision to refrain from further fighting.

After dispersing force, Situ Xiuneng retreated.

Long Ke naturally ceased his offensive, showing a look of anger, "I underestimated... I never thought I would encounter Black Pattern. This Black Pattern comparable to the Mountain Suppression Realm was actually subdued by a mere Middle Realm of Mountain Suppression."

Black Pattern is a special demon creature.

Rarely encountered!

In Heaven-Gazing Gorge, as far as she knew, only a few Black Patterns were discovered and subdued.

At this moment, she had no intention of further entanglement with Situ Xiuneng. Turning around, she saw Wen Ping with an expressionless face and hurriedly said, "Sect Leader, I will pursue."

No expression, yet the eyes were cold.

Allowing Xia Jin to escape was a great embarrassment for a figure in the Upper Realm of Mountain Suppression, especially in front of the Hundred Sects Alliance. The shame was not only hers but also that of the Immortal Sect. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

But at that moment, Wen Ping suddenly raised his hand to halt her steps, and the Long Yue Sword unexpectedly appeared in his hand, "Elder Zhao, no need to pursue. It’s in the sky, you are on the ground. Besides, in an instant, it fled twenty miles away. In which direction would you search?"

"If I don’t find it, I won’t return!" Long Ke responded.

Wen Ping continued, "No need, let me handle it."

Long Ke failed to stop Lu Ming and Xia Jin, but Wen Ping did not blame her. Even disregarding their undisclosed relationship, Wen Ping found no reason to blame. Moreover, he did not anticipate Lu Ming still had this move.

Indeed, the vast world is full of all kinds of demon creatures.

Recalling the effect of Black Pattern, Wen Ping thought of the Hei Ze on the mountain—it releases toxins that can seal off Vein Qi.

As thoughts flashed by, he drew the Long Yue Sword!

The sword emitted a white radiance, disappearing in an instant.

Situ Xiuneng witnessed this scene with no unusual expression. Observing the Long Yue Sword disappear into the horizon, he anxiously speculated Wen Ping’s intentions. However, in two hundred years of knowledge, he found no records about flying swords.

Despite this, Wen Ping’s words, "I’ll handle it," still aroused a sense of caution within him.

Thus he sought to resolve these grievances swiftly, "Sect Leader Wen, how many White Crystals do you need? I can provide them."

Doesn’t Wen Ping favor White Crystals?

Hasn’t he rejected places like Bright Mirror Lake?

Giving him White Crystals should suffice, right?

But Wen Ping did not respond, only glancing at Situ Xiuneng, saying, "Not all problems can be solved with White Crystals. Since this whole matter was caused by Xia Jin, he must pay the price... that price must be death!"

As the words fell, Situ Xiuneng’s brow twitched.

A sense of impending doom inexplicably arose within him.

It left Situ Xiuneng feeling puzzled.

Clearly, Black Pattern had already taken Lu Ming and Xia Jin far away, and he did not even know which direction they headed or where they currently were.

...

Twenty miles west of Cangwu City in the sky, the winged demon Black Pattern suddenly appeared under the faint starlight.

The cool breeze blew, and below was an endless forest.

Behind, Cangwu City could no longer be seen.

Lu Ming hurriedly flipped himself onto Black Pattern’s back and reached out to pull Xia Jin, "Young Master Xia, hold my hand... Although we are far from Cangwu City here, it is ultimately Immortal Sect’s territory, so it’s not suitable to stay long. I must first send you away from East Lake."

"Alright!" Xia Jin gritted his teeth, leveraging onto Black Pattern’s back. He glanced back at the direction they came from, a cold murderous intent shooting from his eyes, "Immortal Sect, I will remember you for this. Let’s see how long you can protect Bainian Xiang."

Having truly witnessed the strength of Immortal Sect’s Upper Realm of Mountain Suppression, he no longer felt inclined to underestimate the Immortal Sect.

Indeed, he couldn’t afford to provoke the Immortal Sect.

After all, the Xia Family was too far from East Lake.

Under the restraint of the Hidden Dragon Sect, the Xia Family couldn’t summon its strong members cross-mountains to help him save face.

However, today’s vendetta, he will never forget.

Since the Immortal Sect continues to grow stronger, he will one day stand on the grand stage of Heaven and Earth Lake, where he will have the opportunity to meet again.

By that time, he will let the Immortal Sect and Sect Leader Wen Ping know his abilities, Xia Jin’s powers.

His ranking among the young talents of Heaven and Earth Lake was not built by bragging.

Lu Ming patted Black Pattern’s neck, saying, "Fly at full speed, leave East Lake at the fastest pace... first to the nearest Hundred Sects Alliance base at Bright Mirror Lake."

He must hand Xia Jin over to the Hundred Sects Alliance, let them arrange someone to escort Xia Jin to Xuanse Lake, and then from Xuanse Lake summon Mountain Suppression Realm experts to escort Xia Jin home, so he can return to Cangwu City with peace of mind.

Just uncertain whether this matter will cause the talks between the Hundred Sects Alliance and Immortal Sect to fail.

He can see that those above highly regard the Immortal Sect.

They wish to utilize the Immortal Sect for their benefit.

If not for seeking support from the Xia Family, for the Silver Level Chief candidate spot, he would surely be unwilling to engage in such foolishness.

Suddenly, a white radiance appeared from behind.

Lu Ming didn’t see it.

Xia Jin naturally didn’t see it either.

Only Black Pattern, endowed with the Demon Race’s keen perception, sensed the dangerous aura from behind at this moment.

Thus, it vigorously flapped its flesh wings, aiming to soar upward to dodge the white radiance.

However, the white radiance was already near, and no matter how it flapped its wings, causing the winds to become stronger, it could not change the fact that the white radiance pierced its demon body.

A piercing wail echoed out in the fierce wind.

The black patterned wings suddenly flapped a few times, and then suddenly became weak, the whole body trembling and falling down.

Lu Ming and Xia Jin were shocked by this change and quickly held onto the black pattern, following it down.

Bang!

The black pattern fell into the forest.

Lu Ming and Xia Jin were directly flung away, one flying to the left and the other to the right for more than ten feet.

However, Lu Ming, after all in the Middle Realm of Mountain Suppression, couldn’t be too embarrassed by the fall. With a side turn, he flipped in the air catching a branch to stabilize his body and then landed steadily on the leaf-strewn ground.

Xia Jin, on the other hand, directly collided with a gnarly root, grimacing in pain.

Of course, it was nothing serious.

Only the winged demon, Black Pattern, was trembling incessantly at this moment, seemingly struggling with pain. Lu Ming quickly ran over, only to see a blood-deep hole on the beastly forehead with blood flowing profusely.

Lu Ming hurriedly released his perception, the first thing he sensed was Black Pattern’s lifeforce constantly draining, its aura weakening.

It seemed it could die at any moment.

Usually, his perception couldn’t penetrate Black Pattern’s demon body, but now, perception went directly into Black Pattern’s body.

What he uncovered was shocking.

The five viscera and six bowels were all destroyed.

Inside its body was a very clear penetration wound.

The forehead was the exit.

The entrance was... the rear end.

Something penetrated through there, directly killing its "treasure".

Seeing Black Pattern’s pained appearance, Xia Jin panicked, quickly asked, "Lu Senior, how is it?"

"It won’t last long!" Lu Ming hurriedly stood up, decisively made a decision, "Let’s get out of here, something that can instantly kill Black Pattern definitely won’t just strike once. It could very likely strike again!"

Xia Jin nodded, quickly started moving forward.

At this moment, he felt whatever Lu Ming said was right.

As long as he wasn’t told he was doomed.

But just as Xia Jin took a few steps, a white light appeared ahead, killing towards Xia Jin with a speed Lu Ming couldn’t even manage to be surprised by.

Puff——

Lu Ming watched helplessly as the white light pierced through Xia Jin’s chest, accompanied by a pained scream.

However, his first response was to leap to the side, dodging the incoming white light.

Thump!

Lu Ming fell into the pile of leaves, simultaneously, the white light flew past the spot where he’d been standing. Xia Jin toppled over.

Lu Ming saw the white light disappear towards the back, quickly scrambled up, dashed towards Xia Jin. Running over, Xia Jin was coughing up blood, pleading for help, gripping his hand with surprisingly strong strength. Lu Ming knew Xia Jin didn’t want to die.

"Ah!"

Lu Ming could only roar helplessly.

Watching Xia Jin die before his eyes, he was powerless.

At this point, Xia Jin’s grip on his hand began to weaken...

...

Outside Cangwu City.

Situ Xiuneng mentioned two compensation figures consecutively.

pieces of White Crystal.

And 10000 pieces of White Crystal.

Moreover, just for the Immortal Sect, he would also compensate Cangwu City.

However, Wen Ping remained silent.

Situ Xiuneng had to continue, "Sect Leader Wen, with Black Pattern’s speed, it can lead Xia Jin out of the East Lake before dawn. As long as they leave East Lake, with Immortal Sect’s current ability, it’s impossible to find Xia Jin."

A force that rose quickly, its strength is its strong point.

But wherever there’s a strong point, there’ll surely be a weak point.

The intelligence network is one of them.

Once out of East Lake, how many forces would help the Immortal Sect find someone?

Even if they saw Xia Jin or Lu Ming, no force would deliver the message to Wen Ping.

Therefore, he heavily emphasized the five words ’current ability’, aiming to make Wen Ping recognize this point.

And solve this matter according to his intent.

Acting alone had no meaning.

"I understand." Wen Ping didn’t shy away from admitting Immortal Sect’s current shortcomings, but didn’t show any helplessness either, instead, responded with a faint smile, "Once out of East Lake, I won’t find them. But the premise is that they can leave East Lake..."

"You... that flying boat." Situ Xiuneng instantly recalled the message given to him from above, seemingly mentioned a boat. But his focus was on the vortex map’s special ability created by Immortal Sect, not paying much attention.

Seeing Wen Ping’s determined expression now, he felt, Wen Ping was definitely going to use that flying boat again.

That flying boat, its speed seemed extremely fast!

If it were really like that, he’d have to find a way to stall Wen Ping, prevent him from activating the flying boat.

Once the boat appeared above, he’d have the sky rush to besiege it, stall it.

Despite causing more misunderstandings, there wouldn’t be any other choice.
