Scum Of The Demonic Sect

Chapter 75 Robbery

The flying sword controlled by Fakong flew out at an extremely fast speed, much faster than Qiao Chun's.

Everyone clearly saw the flying sword fly over a hundred zhang (approximately 33 meters) and showed no sign of stopping. In the blink of an eye, it surpassed the mark left by Qiao Chun's flying sword, and then, more than ten zhang (approximately 33 meters) away from that mark, it suddenly stuck into the ground.

Seeing this scene, many people exclaimed in surprise, and many looked at Qiao Chun. But Qiao Chun remained calm, because although Fakong's flying sword had surpassed the mark he had made, he could do the same. The important thing was whether Fakong could control the flying sword to return.

Just then, Fakong took a deep breath and pointed repeatedly at the flying sword.

Under Fakong's skillful control, the hilt of the flying sword began to sway, the swaying increasing in frequency. Finally, at a certain moment, the flying sword suddenly rose from the ground and shot rapidly towards Fakong.

Seeing this, everyone gasped again.

Fakong's expression relaxed, while Qiao Chun's face turned ashen.

The flying sword soon landed in Fakong's hand. Fakong tossed the sword to Qiao Chun, clasped his hands together, and smiled, "Benefactor Qiao, if you didn't use your full strength the first time, you can try again."

Facing Fakong's challenge, Qiao Chun shook his head helplessly and sighed, "No need. If it were only a few feet away, I could try, but you're over ten feet, no need to try!"

"Thank you for your generosity, Benefactor Qiao. Then I'll take the spirit stones!" Fakong said happily.

Just as he flew directly towards the Fire Crocodile's lair, dozens of flying swords suddenly shot towards him simultaneously.

"Hu Xiangzhen, are you going to break your oath?" Fakong, having barely dodged, was immediately enraged.

Hu Xiangzhen coldly snorted, "With so many people from Heavenly Sword Mountain here, how can we just watch you take the top-grade spirit stone? Fellow Daoist Qiao, since you've already lost, I'll make the first move. You won't be breaking the contract, so why not take a gamble?"

"Gamble my ass!" Just as Hu Xiangzhen uttered those tempting words, someone roared, and then a giant axe appeared in a flash of light. The axe then swept down directly towards the owners of the thirty-odd flying swords.

"Boom!" With a deafening roar, the earth trembled as the giant axe struck.

Of the thirty-odd people caught in its path, more than ten screamed in agony.

Some were instantly killed by the axe, while others were severely injured.

"Not good!"

Just then, someone suddenly shouted.

The owner of the giant axe-wielding talisman had actually arrived at the Fire Crocodile's lair.

"You're courting death!" Hu Xiangzhen was furious at the person who had appeared in the Fire Crocodile's lair.

She had broken the contract with a sneak attack first, only to have someone else reap the benefits—this was infuriating!

The person in the Fire Crocodile's lair grinned slyly at Hu Xiangzhen and shouted, "Fairy Hu, if you want my life, come after me! If you have the ability!"

Hearing Lin Haoming's words, Hu Xiangzhen was enraged and immediately gave chase.

Lin Haoming immediately swallowed the Rejuvenation Pill, then summoned the Heavenly Umbrella and flew towards the lava lake.

Seeing Lin Haoming escape with the top-grade spirit stone, the others immediately gave chase.

Upon seeing this, Qiao Chun roared, "All Blood Refining Sect disciples, listen up! Hold off Junior Brother Lin for a while!"

Wang Chen watched Lin Haoming fly towards the lava lake and muttered to himself, "That kid Lin Haoming, did he have his eye on that spirit stone from the start? Otherwise, how could he have acted so quickly?"

Wang Chen's mutterings were indeed accurate.

Lin Haoming had his eye on that spirit stone from the beginning. During the final battle, when he took out his flying sword to give them to them, he held the talisman of the Mountain-Splitting Axe in his hand and even had two Qi-restoring pills in his mouth.

Regardless of the final outcome, Lin Haoming had already decided to take the spirit stone himself. The only thing he hadn't expected was that Hu Xiangzhen would be even more anxious than him, only he had prepared a step earlier.

Of course, this was actually a good thing for Lin Haoming. Hu Xiangzhen had broken the contract, and she would be the one suffering the backlash from it; he wouldn't need to explain why the contract hadn't restricted him.

On the other side, Qiao Chun was also going all out. His reasons for attacking were twofold: first, Lin Haoming's success meant victory for the Blood Refining Sect, and completing the sect's mission would guarantee him a reward; second, these people weren't targeting him, but Lin Haoming, and they wouldn't risk staying to eliminate him, so his safety was at least guaranteed.

Actually, Lin Haoming wanted to use a teleportation talisman to leave directly, but the three sects had jointly set up a magic array here to deal with the fire crocodile. With several arrays interacting, even a low-grade, high-quality teleportation talisman would have a delay. This meant that if he wasn't careful, the enemy's attack would arrive before he could escape, resulting in his death.

Even so, Lin Haoming wasn't afraid. He had flown all the way from the lava lake and was certainly more familiar with it than the others, making it difficult for them to catch him.

In fact, when Lin Haoming reached the top of the lava lake, after Qiao Chun's intervention, only about twenty people followed behind. However, the leaders, Fa Kong and Hu Xiangzhen, were somewhat troublesome.

Fortunately, they had already reached the lava lake. Lin Haoming was prepared, but the others, upon reaching the lake, immediately sensed its terrifying fiery power.

Several individuals with significantly weaker cultivation levels or whose techniques were severely countered immediately stopped their pursuit. After all, continuing the chase risked falling into the lava lake.

This reduced the number of people from over twenty to only seventeen or eighteen, but Hu Xiangzhen and Fakong remained among them.

Lin Haoming was only at the ninth level of Qi Refining, while the dozen or so people behind him all possessed the cultivation of the Great Perfection of Qi Refining. Their flying speed was faster than Lin Haoming's.

Lin Haoming's familiarity with the lava lake prevented them from catching up quickly.

In fact, Lin Haoming had already moved far away from the mutually influencing magic arrays, but because the pursuit behind him was too intense, he dared not use his escape talisman and could only continue fleeing.

The group, who had been chasing for quite some time, grew anxious as they watched Lin Haoming continue his escape. They knew three days were running out, and if they didn't catch up soon, it would be over.

“Go!”

Just then, Fairy Hu grabbed a spirit beast pouch hanging from her waist and tossed it aside. A dozen or so birds with crimson feathers flew out.

“Firebirds!” Fakong exclaimed with delight upon seeing them.

These firebirds weren't particularly remarkable, but their advantage was their speed. All they needed to do was send them flying and slightly hinder Lin Haoming, and the spirit stones would be theirs.

But just as everyone thought this, the firebirds flew towards Lin Haoming, and suddenly, Lin Haoming, who was only a few dozen feet away from them, vanished!
