Chapter 183 Xia Lianghe's Strength
Chapter 183 Xia Lianghe's Strength
He wanted to test Xia Lianghe's strength. As the clan leader, he was responsible for the rise and fall of the clan. If the Liang generation were all mediocre people, the clan would surely fall into an abyss of no return.
"Why do you have to do this? Why don't you let me go? I promise I can take them down in 30 breaths. After that, you just need to take good care of your second brother."
Xia Yuren's words were like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, immediately eliciting bursts of laughter from those around him.
Xia Yuren has now reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, and dealing with those three demonic cultivators at the eighth level of Qi Refining is as easy as taking candy from a baby.
"Don't worry, Second Brother, I will remember your and Eighth Brother's contributions. When we return to the family, you can exchange your contribution points for Foundation Establishment Pills directly."
Xia Yuhui's words were like a bolt from the blue, causing a huge uproar among the crowd. The implication behind Xia Yuhui's words was that he had two extremely precious Foundation Establishment Pills hidden on his person.
At this moment, the expressions on Xia Yuren and Xia Yufeng's faces became more colorful than a palette, and even Xia Yuhui could sense that their breathing was being tightly gripped by an invisible hand.
"Don't get too excited yet. You have to exchange them with me for contribution points. Twenty thousand contribution points for one pill, not a single point less," Xia Yuhui said half-jokingly. He had obtained these two Foundation Establishment Pills by struggling on the edge of life and death. Although he wanted to offer them directly to the family, he still needed to cultivate. As long as he could exchange these two Foundation Establishment Pills for contribution points, he could choose his favorite items from the family's treasury.
Previously, his family only had one Foundation Establishment cultivator, but now there are three more, plus Yang Kongtai, making a total of five.
Therefore, the distribution of benefits must be done properly; otherwise, rifts may arise within the family.
"Don't worry, Fifth Brother, even if you want 30,000 contribution points, let alone 20,000, I won't hesitate," Xia Yuren said with delight.
"Thank you, Fifth Brother!" Xia Yufeng, who was breathing heavily, also came to his senses and thanked him respectfully.
On the other side, Xia Lianghe used an exquisite footwork technique, moving swiftly among the trees. He had already traveled a hundred miles like an arrow released from a bow.
At this moment, he appeared calm on the surface, but his heart was already churning with turmoil, like a vast and turbulent sea. Therefore, he was on high alert and ready to defend himself at any time.
Xia Yuhui actually sent him to scout ahead alone, perhaps as a test for him. And given his current combat strength, whoever could test him would definitely not be a kind soul.
Sure enough, not long after, a thick, pitch-black fog suddenly appeared ahead, and from the fog, more than a dozen hideous and terrifying ghost hands emerged, baring their fangs and claws as they pounced at him.
Xia Liang was prepared. He moved with the agility of a swallow and leaped onto a towering tree. Then, with the fluidity of flowing water, he swiftly unleashed his unique skill: the Sea of Fire Technique!
In an instant, the area within a hundred meters seemed to be suddenly engulfed by a raging sea of fire. The moment those ghostly hands touched the sea of fire, they vanished as quickly as snowflakes meeting the blazing sun.
The demonic energy, as if frozen in place, instantly stopped moving forward.
However, the power of this sea of fire did not end there. More than fifty fire snakes shot out of the sea of fire like arrows, surging towards the demonic energy like a turbulent wave.
Three cultivators instantly flew out from within the demonic energy. They leaped onto the treetops as nimbly as rabbits, and one of them immediately unleashed the Ghost Wind Technique!
The fifty-odd fire snakes were instantly blown into pieces.
Just as the three thought they were safe and were preparing to attack Xia Lianghe, the fifty-odd fire snakes, except for a few that were blown onto the surrounding trees, turned around like a nimble swarm of snakes and pounced on the three like hungry tigers.
Caught off guard, one of the cultivators was instantly struck by several fire snakes and fell straight down like a kite with a broken string, dying on the spot.
Seeing this, the other two could only flee as quickly as startled birds, but the sea of fire was too slow, like an old ox pulling a broken cart, and could not catch up with them at all.
However, just as the two were fleeing at breakneck speed, Xia Lianghe, who had just disappeared, suddenly emerged from the woods like a ghost, wielding a long spear, and pounced on the two like a hungry wolf.
Upon seeing this, the two did not hesitate and immediately produced their respective magical artifacts as if by magic, facing Xia Lianghe as if facing a formidable enemy.
The three then engaged in a thrilling battle of magic in the woods.
The two demonic cultivators seemed to be seasoned veterans of this art, possessing exceptional combat skills. Their coordination was seamless, flowing like clouds and water, with one attacking and the other defending, and Xia Liang, unable to withstand their combined strength, gradually found himself at a disadvantage after a brief resistance.
Just then, a giant lion-tiger eagle, as big as a small mountain, fell from the sky like a burning meteorite, and without making a sound, it tore through a man's chest as if it were made of paper.
This lion-tiger-eagle was the one that Xia Lianghe released to inspect the sky when they first arrived.
The other person was struck dumb, his face turning ashen instantly, and his first reaction was to flee in panic.
However, in the blink of an eye, a long spear suddenly appeared before his eyes. The black cloth hanging from the spear was as dark as ink, and suddenly burst out with a blinding black light. His eyes were instantly swallowed by this black light. By the time he came to his senses, the spear had already pierced his chest like a venomous snake.
Xia Lianghe vigorously stirred the spear, then suddenly flung it, sending his corpse flying like a kite with a broken string straight to a large tree in the distance.
Having done all this, Xia Lianghe dared not slacken in the slightest. Instead, he made a decisive move and quickly evacuated the area. Then, he ordered the lion-tiger eagle to gnaw on the three people's corpses.
After confirming that all three had perished, Xia Lianghe breathed a sigh of relief, stood on a large tree, took out three pills from his storage bag, and swallowed them eagerly.
Although the battle just now was swift and fierce, his magical power had already been depleted by 70%.
As soon as the battle ended, Xia Yuhui descended from the sky like an immortal, a warm smile on his face, and nodded slightly to Xia Lianghe.
"Alright, in the future, as long as you have enough contribution points, you can directly exchange them for a Foundation Establishment Pill."
Xia Liang was overjoyed and immediately clasped his hands in a salute, saying, "Thank you, Clan Chief!"
Just then, the others arrived one after another, and they naturally heard what had just been said very clearly.
At this moment, their expressions were varied, clearly none of them had expected that Xia Yuhui would have a Foundation Establishment Pill in his possession.
"Yu Hui, where did you get so many Foundation Establishment Pills? Did you exchange all your contribution points for Foundation Establishment Pills during the last Northern Frontier War?"
"Fifth brother, how could you be so foolish? If that's the case, I'd rather not have that Foundation Establishment Pill."
Xia Yuhua and Xia Yuren asked the same question in the same way.
"Don't worry, have you forgotten about Uncle Yan? He gave me a Foundation Establishment Pill last time too," Xia Yuhui explained with a beaming smile.
