Feeling the powerful fluctuations of Mystical Energy in Azure Sky's hands, Aotian's gaze instantly became sharp. 0
 
No matter how similar Azure Sky's situation was to his own, the two were now standing on opposing sides. If he showed mercy because of Azure Sky's predicament, he would likely leave Fengyun Nation's northern region on a stretcher. 0
 
With this thought, a massive energy slowly rose from Aotian's body and gathered at his fingertip. 0
 
A vast wave of energy began to spread from Aotian's fingertip. 0
 
Azure Sky's eyes narrowed slightly, not daring to be careless, and suddenly urged the Mystical Energy within him. In an instant, a thick Mystical Energy Whip shot out with an astonishing wave of force. 0
 
The Mystical Energy Whip tore through the surrounding air, accompanied by a terrifying explosive sound as it fiercely lashed toward Aotian. 0
 
Aotian's expression remained calm as he simply extended his fingertip toward the Mystical Energy. 0
 
"Star Point Finger!" 0
 
A Silver Beam shot forth from Aotian's fingertip, carrying the vast power of the stars, and violently collided with the Mystical Energy Whip unleashed by Azure Sky. 0
 
With a loud bang, a tremendous sound echoed, and terrifying shockwaves surged violently outward. In an instant, petals, leaves, and fragments of dead branches filled the air, creating a spectacular scene. 0
 
Aotian's Silver Beam not only brimmed with stellar power but also possessed the strange assimilation ability of the Transformation Technique. 0
 
As a result, there was no prolonged stalemate between the Silver Beam and the Mystical Energy Whip. The latter began to show signs of weakness. 0
 
Before Azure Sky could react, Aotian shouted: 0
 
 
"Break!" 0
 
Suddenly, Silver Beam seemed to be granted infinite power, piercing through the Mystical Energy Whip with a force that was almost overwhelming. 0
 
Seeing this, Azure Sky's expression changed drastically. Azure Profound Energy surged from within him, transforming into a Azure Light Shield that firmly protected him. 0
 
"Bang!" 0
 
Silver Beam collided with the Azure Light Shield, and the two remained locked in a stalemate for a moment before a crack suddenly spread across the surface of the Light Shield. 0
 
A thousand-mile dam collapses due to an ant hole. 0
 
The appearance of this crack seemed to announce that the sturdy Azure Light Shield was about to shatter. 0
 
And indeed, it was true. The crack spread throughout the entire Azure Light Shield, and with a loud shout from Aotian, the Light Shield ultimately could not bear the burden and shattered into nothingness. 0
 
After piercing through the Mystical Energy Whip and the Azure Light Shield, Silver Beam also consumed a tremendous amount of energy. At the moment when the Azure Light Shield broke, Silver Beam struck down on Azure Sky's shoulder with a faint remnant of power. 0
 
"Hmph!" 0
 
Immediately, a muffled groan escaped from Azure Sky's throat, and his face appeared somewhat pale. 0
 
Fortunately, Silver Beam had expended most of its energy; otherwise, Azure Sky would not have only sustained minor injuries. 0
 
At that moment, it seemed as if a hint of azure flowed in Azure Sky's eyes, and his pale complexion gradually disappeared, becoming flushed instead. 0
 
Seeing this, Aotian showed no signs of surprise on his face. 0
 
 
From the very beginning, Aotian knew that Azure Sky was cultivating Wood Attribute Mystical Energy. 0
 
Wood Attribute Mystical Energy can be said to be one of the weaker types of Mystical Energy in terms of attack power, which is the main reason why Azure Sky suffered under Aotian's hands. 0
 
Although the attack power of Wood Attribute Mystical Energy is not strong, it possesses a powerful healing ability. This means that as long as Azure Sky is not severely injured, the Mystical Energy within him can heal his wounds in the shortest time possible without any side effects. 0
 
This is also why, after taking a hit from Aotian, he merely grunted and acted as if nothing had happened. 0
 
"Azure Sky, you might as well not make a move. The Wood Attribute Mystical Energy you cultivate cannot harm me at all," Aotian said to Azure Sky calmly. 0
 
Azure Sky glanced at Murong Qian, who was struggling against Niu Geng and had little strength to fight back. His eyes turned slightly cold, and he did not respond to Aotian. Instead, he formed a mysterious seal with both hands, which exuded a heavy aura reminiscent of the earth. 0
 
"Azure Mountain Suppression Seal!" 0
 
With a loud shout from Azure Sky, vast Mystical Energy surged from his body, condensing in the air into a green mountain. 0
 
The green mountain was covered in mysterious runes and, under Azure Sky's control, it suddenly pressed down towards Aotian. 0
 
The green mountain radiated an overwhelming heaviness, causing the air around it to explode upon impact. 0
 
Aotian's expression gradually became serious. 0
 
He had seen Aoling perform this Azure Mountain Suppression Seal at the Aotian Family Annual Meeting. However, Aoling's version was nowhere near as terrifying as what Azure Sky was unleashing. 0
 
The Azure Mountain Suppression Seal that Azure Sky executed was immensely powerful; the condensed green mountain looked exactly like a Small Azure Mountain. 0
 
Under the shadow of this Little Azure Mountain, the operation of Aotian's Transformation Technique seemed to slow down significantly. 0
 
 
Gazing at the Little Azure Mountain that was drawing closer, feeling the increasing weight of pressure on himself, Aotian couldn't help but let out a sigh, as if he wanted to expel all the heaviness from his body. 0
 
Then, a vast surge of Soul Power erupted from between Aotian's eyebrows, transforming into a **wave that carried tremendous force, attacking the Little Azure Mountain. 0
 
“Forty-Fourth Layered Wave!” 0
 
With a roar in his heart, Aotian unleashed the Soul Wave, which crashed against the Little Azure Mountain in seemingly endless waves. 0
 
As the relentless assault of the Soul Wave continued, Azure Sky's face instantly turned pale, his eyes revealing deep shock. 0
 
“Break!” 0
 
When the forty-fourth Soul Wave struck the Little Azure Mountain, the mysterious runes on its surface instantly dissipated into nothingness. 0
 
This final Soul Wave seemed to transform into a primordial beast, completely obliterating the Little Azure Mountain in one fell swoop. 0
 
With the Azure Mountain Suppression Seal shattered, Azure Sky, who was mentally connected to it, suffered a severe blow. A mouthful of fresh blood spewed from his mouth, his eyes dimmed, yet the astonishment he displayed could not be concealed. 0
 
Looking at Azure Sky at this moment, Aotian sighed lightly and said: 0
 
“My brother urgently needs Gourmet Blood, so you can forget about taking it.” 0
 
Azure Sky replied with a bitter smile: 0
 
“The victor is king and the loser is a bandit. Since I have lost, I have nothing to say. Just kill me!” 0
 
Upon hearing this, Aotian shook his head slightly and said: 0
 
 
"I won't kill you!" 0
 
Originally waiting for death with closed eyes, Azure Sky suddenly opened them wide upon hearing Aotian's words, fixating on the hood above Aotian's head and said, "Who exactly are you? Aren't you afraid that I will leak your information if you don't kill me? You should understand that if your information gets out, no one in the northern part of Fengyun Nation can save you!" 0
 
Aotian chuckled lightly and replied, "You haven't even seen my true appearance; what does it matter if you leak it?" 0
 
Azure Sky was momentarily taken aback but then firmly stated, "Don't worry, I won't disclose your whereabouts. This time, I owe you a favor, and if there's an opportunity in the future, I will repay you!" 0
 
As he spoke, Azure Sky took a deep look at Aotian, whose face was hidden beneath the black hood, then turned away without glancing at Murong Qian lying nearby. He simply vanished into the depths of the forest. 0
 
Watching Azure Sky's retreating figure, Aotian let out a faint sigh. Was what he did really right? 0
 
Aotian never considered himself a soft-hearted person. On the contrary, he had always been ruthless towards those who deserved to die. 0
 
Logically speaking, since Azure Sky was from Azure Cloud Sect, he should have dealt a fatal blow. Yet here he was, letting the other go. 0
 
It was important to note that this was within Azure Cloud Sect's sphere of influence. As long as Azure Sky returned to Azure Cloud Sect and reported his whereabouts to the higher-ups, Aotian didn't believe he could escape the terrifying intelligence network of Azure Cloud Sect. 0
 
Given Azure Cloud Sect's style of operation, having stolen their highly valued Gourmet Blood would surely lead to his demise. 0
 
Aotian understood all this from the very beginning; however, he still chose to let Azure Sky go. 0
 
 
Aotian knew that it was not out of mercy, but rather because Azure Sky's plight had touched the softness in his heart. 0
 
In Aotian's view, Azure Sky at this moment resembled his former self. Both had experienced setbacks in their cultivation due to various reasons, even facing ridicule, and found themselves in an unprecedented low point in life. 0
 
Perhaps Azure Sky harbored the same sorrow and loneliness within as he did, which resonated with Aotian's own feelings; thus, he chose to let him go. 0
 
Aotian thought to himself. 0
 
"Boss, why did you let that kid go?" Niu Geng approached with Murong Qian's Storage Ring in hand and asked Aotian. 0
 
Aotian shook his head and remained silent. After glancing at Murong Qian's unmoving corpse, he left the place. 0
 
Niu Geng scratched his head in confusion, not understanding why Aotian was so quiet, making him seem a bit strange. 0
 
However, Niu Geng did not delve deeper. After spitting on Murong Qian's corpse, he hurriedly followed Aotian's back. 0
 
Aotian said nothing about it; he had anticipated that Niu Geng would be able to kill Murong Qian. 0
 
Yet Aotian also understood that Murong Qian was a Candidate for Sect Leader of Azure Cloud Sect, a position of considerable importance. 0
 
With Murong Qian's death, there would undoubtedly be a storm brewing in the northern part of Fengyun Nation and throughout the entire nation. 0
 
As the instigator of this storm, Aotian knew he could not escape the consequences. 0
 
Therefore, Aotian had already decided to find a quiet place to consume the Triple Pill and allow Niu Geng to undergo the refinement of Gourmet Blood. 0
 
This way, both of their strengths would significantly increase. By then, even if they encountered warriors from the Human Spirit Realm, they would no longer have to be as cautious as they were now. Additionally, traveling through the northern part of Fengyun Nation would no longer require them to live in constant fear. 0
 
 
Even if the Azure Cloud Sect thoroughly investigates the death of Murong Qian, Aotian thought that he and Niu Geng should be able to handle it together. 0
 
With this in mind, Aotian led Niu Geng towards a remote direction. 0
 
The forest had been silent for a long time when suddenly, an elderly man with white hair appeared. 0
 
This old man was the Second Elder mentioned by Murong Qian earlier. 0
 
After surveying the surroundings, the old man's gaze landed on Murong Qian's corpse. 0
 
His expression changed drastically, and in an instant, he appeared beside Murong Qian. Upon feeling the cold body devoid of any warmth, his face darkened immediately. 0
 
"No matter who you are, since you dared to kill a disciple of my Azure Cloud Sect, you will pay the price for it..." 0
 
At this moment, dark clouds gathered in the sky, seemingly heralding an impending storm... 0
