Chapter 1012
Seeing the heavy losses suffered by their respective sides, the captains' faces were so grim they seemed to drip water. When they looked at Zhanxin, they were filled with both shock and fear.
Putting themselves in their shoes, none of them could possibly have used forbidden techniques to stop or even kill so many people like Zhanxin.
"An agreement?" Zhanxin remained arrogant, even though he was almost exhausted, he still managed to maintain his suspended posture in the air.
With each cough, a large amount of blood gushed from the corner of her pale mouth. "Cough cough cough..." Her voice was weak but carried an undeniable firmness. "This is what I owe him."
"She's gone mad, this crazy woman!"
"Kill! Kill! We've already paid such a heavy price. If we can't get this treasure, we won't be able to explain ourselves when we get back!"
"Kill her, obtain the treasure, and sell it at Wanbao Mountain. Otherwise, if I use so many treasures at once, I'm afraid I'll have a hard time establishing myself again and competing for the position of clan leader!"
Having fought to this point, the group was now in a difficult situation.
In this battle, they were severely damaged, and almost all of their one-time use talismans and magical treasures were exhausted under Zhanxin's desperate resistance.
These were the profound resources they possessed as princes of great tribes, yet they were all lost because of a treasure whose true form they had not yet seen. This was something they found hard to accept!
With a creaking sound, the bowstring of the dragon bone bow in the hands of the Dragon Hunter Prince tightened once more, and an arrow imbued with terrifying power was poised to be released.
Blazing flames rose from the arrowhead, spreading wildly towards the slender, blood-stained woman in the sky.
At the same time, flying swords circled around, emitting sharp sword light, as if they wanted to instantly cut Zhanxin into mincemeat.
Faced with this final, fierce attack, Zhanxin clutched his chest weakly with his right hand, coughing up mouthfuls of blood.
At this moment, she was no longer the peerless and arrogant fairy who looked down on her peers, but rather like an old woman who was nearing the end of her life, her breath dying.
"Chen Xuan, I, Zhan Xin, will repay you in full today..." After Zhan Xin used her last bit of strength to say these words, her Purple Mansion Lake completely dried up, and she could no longer maintain her state of flying, nor was she able to resist the incoming arrows and terrifying spells.
She fell lifelessly to the ground like a leaf torn apart by a gale.
"She's dead, she's finally going to die!" This scene of Zhanxin's impending demise was witnessed by the six members of Qingyuexuan who were struggling to defend themselves.
"Shameless scoundrel, how dare you compare your spiritual energy foundation with the second-generation disciples of the four great academies?" Zi Yu's chest heaved violently with anger.
From the very beginning of the battle, these six people formed a defensive formation and have managed to hold out until now.
Facing six cultivators in the mid-to-late stages of the Myriad Manifestations Realm in a short period of time, she and Yue Ming really didn't have a better solution.
"Everyone, our chance has come! Those tribal princes are exhausted. After fighting this far, they've probably used up most of their powerful magical artifacts." Qing Yuexuan completely ignored the two, Zi Yu and her companion, who were attacking frantically, and turned to look at the situation at the mine entrance, transmitting his voice, "Our chance has come!"
"Yes, we still have the strength to spare. If we have the opportunity later, we will definitely fight for that treasure of creation!"
“That’s right. If any of these tribal members dare to obstruct us, we’ll kill them all. After obtaining that treasure, we can simply escape to other cities or the Xuanxiao Imperial Capital. As long as we sell that treasure, we can immediately obtain the resources to achieve the Void Transformation Realm, and we might even be able to join some major tribes or become their personal disciples in forbidden areas!”
...The appearance of the opportunity gradually drove Qingyuexuan and the others into a frenzy, their eyes gleaming with greed.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were fixed on Zhanxin, waiting for her to be swept away by various deadly attacks and reduced to ashes. Even Ziyu and Yueming felt that Zhanxin, who was exhausted and on the verge of death, had no chance of escaping such deadly attacks.
However, just as divine arrows, flames, and flying swords were about to strike Zhanxin at the critical moment...
Shila-
Blinding bolts of lightning suddenly surged out of the underground mine and appeared directly in front of Zhanxin, who was falling downwards.
As the lightning faded, a man dressed in a black robe, with long, flowing white hair and an exceptionally handsome face, came into everyone's view.
Chen Xuan used his lightning-fast steps to traverse more than 3,000 miles in a short period of time, which put considerable pressure on him. Fortunately, he arrived at the crucial moment.
Seeing Zhan Xin's current state, his breath as weak as a wisp of smoke, and looking at the scattered corpses on the ground in the distance, as well as the seven or eight people with pale faces, Chen Xuan instantly understood everything.
Chen Xuan reached out and steadily caught Zhan Xin's body, which was covered in hideous wounds.
At this moment, Zhanxin's once bright and sharp eyes had been replaced by darkness, and she had even gone blind due to the complete depletion of her foundation and the loss of a large amount of her essence and blood.
However, cultivators emphasize the ability to sense each other's aura.
As soon as Chen Xuan caught her, she slightly moved her eyes, looked at Chen Xuan, and said in an extremely weak voice, "Yes, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."
Chen Xuan hadn't expected Zhan Xin to be this kind of person, and some of his negative impressions of her gradually faded away.
“In that case… I, Zhanxin, will owe you nothing.” Zhanxin slowly closed his eyes. “Chen Xuan, I beg you… take my body back to the Xuanxiao World. I don’t want to die in a place like this. Let me die closer to the Taiqing Palace.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan smiled wryly and said, "Don't worry, this is just a minor fatal wound, plus your path to immortality is completely ruined. It's nothing serious." If Zhan Xin still had the strength at this moment, unless he was barely clinging to life, he would definitely have given Chen Xuan a big eye roll.
Chen Xuan waved his hand, and a seemingly ordinary jade bottle appeared in his hand. He then directly held the mouth of the jade bottle to Zhan Xin's lips.
Unfortunately, at this moment, Zhanxin didn't even have the strength to move his eyelids, so how could he possibly have the strength to drink the precious elixir of heaven and earth that Chen Xuan offered to his lips?
"Your current state is all because of me. Fine, I'll help you one more time." Chen Xuan said, without asking Zhan Xin whether he agreed, he tilted his head back and drank a mouthful of innate source liquid, held it in his mouth, and then, in front of the shocked gazes of all parties below, personally passed it on to the dying Zhan Xin.
Their lips met, and a warm liquid flowed from their mouths into Zhanxin's abdomen. Zhanxin's delicate body trembled violently, and she slowly opened her eyes.
Compared to his previously lifeless eyes, Zhanxin's vision has clearly recovered.
This is the terrifying effect of the innate water-attribute source liquid. It can save a person from simply using multiple forbidden techniques, damaging their immortal foundation, or leaving them exhausted. It can even completely restore a person who is left with only a breath of life.
Looking closely at that handsome face once again, feeling the warmth of his lips, Zhanxin's heart trembled violently.
If the first time she opened her eyes and saw this scene, it devastated her, but this time, it inexplicably captivated her.
Then, Zhanxin shyly closed her beautiful eyes and slowly welcomed the healing medicine flowing down her lips.
"hateful!"
"Bei Ming, are you trying to make an enemy of the Dragon Hunter Clan by doing this?!"
"You saved our mortal enemy right before our eyes, Fellow Daoist Beiming. Have you considered the Tianxuan Clan before doing this?"
"A lowly maidservant and a rogue cultivator from humble origins, they are a match made in heaven!"
...Below, in the distance, the crowd, seeing this scene, shouted angrily, and all sorts of vicious words came flying at Chen Xuan and Zhan Xin.
