"Boom!"

This was the sound of collision between their inner force.

Daoist Ping Yang did not move at all, while Qin Hao flew out like a cannonball backwards. With a "hong long" sound, he fell into the low buildings. No one knew if he was still alive.

"Qin Hao." A beautiful woman screamed out in shock and ran in the direction that Qin Hao had fallen in as if she was crazy. That woman was s.h.i.+ Bingying.

"Sister Bingying, what are you doing? Come back!" Someone shouting behind her, but she couldn't stop her.

"He overestimated himself." Daoist Ping Yang said coldly. He never looked at s.h.i.+ Bingying. He was certain that Qin Hao would die, and no one could save him. But he was also shocked at Qin Hao's strength. It was not just at the Beginning Stage. He felt that something was wrong. But he did not want to think about it now, as he was holding the Seven Evil Machete in his hands, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

"Daoist Ping Yang, your hand …" Someone screamed.

Only then did Daoist Ping Yang turn his attention from the Seven Evil Machete to his hand, where he discovered a ball of black Qi spreading.

"That palm was poisonous." Daoist Ping Yang was startled, but his expression did not change. With his strength, he was confident that he could expel this poison. So, he ran the spirit Qi in his body to save himself.

If it wasn't for the Evil Yin Pearl, the poison would have been easily expelled by him. However, the Evil Yin Pearl had the strong Yin Energy, and the power had entered Qin Hao's body. In terms of Daoist Ping Yang's current strength, it was not easy for him to expel it.

After a few tries, only part of the black Qi in his hand was forced back. However, instead of dissipating, a trace of black Qi spread faster and faster. He could feel the black Qi pa.s.sing through his hands, and the bones in his palm melting. This made him a well ingrained pain. That black Qi kept devouring his hand like a black viper.

If he had not tried to pretend that nothing had happened, he would have cried out. Now he could no longer keep calm like before. Instead, his expression changed drastically. He even became fl.u.s.tered as he used all sorts of methods to force out the black Qi. Unfortunately, he failed again and again. Seeing that the black Qi was about to climb up his wrist, Daoist Ping Yang clenched his teeth and used his other hand to pull out the sharp Seven Evil Machete and pointed it at his wrist.

"Ah!" With a roar, his wrist was cut off like tofu. A palm that had almost turned completely black fell to the ground with a "Pa" sound. Blood dripped out, causing the people around him startled. Not only were the bones melting, but the skin was corroding and turning into a puddle of black blood which emitted a revolting stench. What a cruel and strange palm technique! This was because Qin Hao's Yin Wind Bone Erosion Palm had been upgraded. It could erode not only the bones, but also the flesh.

Looking at the corroded hand, Daoist Ping Yang was glad that he had immediately chopped it off. Otherwise, it would have spread to his wrist and even to his body, then he would be finished. He never thought that he would lose a hand just for the Seven Evil Machete. The blade was important, but his hand was more important. He immediately became furious.

"Little b.a.s.t.a.r.d, I will tear you into a thousand pieces." After shouting with gritted teeth, he had already turned into a gust of wind and rushed to the place where Qin Hao had fallen. He swore that even if Qin Hao died, he would still burn his bones to dust. Only that would be a catharsis for him.

After Daoist Ping Yang rushed over, some other people ran after him and Ye Siyu was one of them.

s.h.i.+ Bingying was frantically searching for Qin Hao where he had fallen. However, he was not there. She found nothing but some bloodstains.

Did he run away?

s.h.i.+ Bingying could not believe that Qin Hao could still escape after the fight with Ping Yang.

Qin Hao had escaped. He was not a fool and he knew the huge gap between him and Daoist Ping Yang. So, he had a plan. His palm did not really touch Daoist Ping Yang. He had merely sent out a powerful Spirit Strength to attack him. If they had really touched each other, Daoist Ping Yang would not just lose a hand, and Qin Hao's hand would also be broken. So, he didn't do that.

As for his flying backwards, it was caused by the shock of the waves, and his own Phantom Cloud Trace and deliberate retreat. Everyone was confused. They thought that he was blasted away by Old Daoist Ping Yang.

Although Qin Hao had prepared for this attack, Daoist Ping Yang's strength was too strong. He still suffered heavy internal injuries. When he fell, he could not help but cough out a few mouthfuls of blood, not daring to stay any longer. He fled the area quickly with the help of the shelter of the buildings.

"Little b.a.s.t.a.r.d, I'm going to tear you apart. Get out here!" Daoist Ping Yang bellowed and rushed into the building where Qin Hao had fallen. He didn't see him. Only s.h.i.+ Bingying was there and a pool of blood was on the ground.

"Where's the little b.a.s.t.a.r.d?" Ping Yang shouted at s.h.i.+ Bingying with an ashen face.

s.h.i.+ Bingying didn't look back. She only shook her head, "I didn't see him."

"You didn't see him? How could he escape? It's impossible." Daoist Ping Yang was so angry that he slammed his palm on the wall, making a huge hole amidst the rumbling sounds. "Little b.a.s.t.a.r.d, get out here! Let's see where you are!" He thought that Qin Hao was half dead. Even if he were dead, he wouldn't be far away from here. He could only stay nearby. Ping Yang frantically searched the area, knocking down the walls that blocked his way.

When he blasted another hole in the wall, he found a s.h.i.+ning blue bead. It had fallen from Qin Hao's pocket. He put three beads away when he was in the tunnel, and now he only had two left.

"The Spirit Acc.u.mulation Pearl!" Qin Hao did not recognize the bead, but Daoist Ping Yang was very familiar with it. He quickly grabbed the bead, looked at the blue light, and felt its Spirit Qi. His eyes became fanatical, "It really is the Spirit Acc.u.mulation Pearl. It must have fallen from that brat's body. It must be. I must find him." Ping Yang was even more crazy.

Some people behind him also saw the Spirit Acc.u.mulation Pearl. If someone else had got the bead, they would have rushed over to s.n.a.t.c.h it. In the Martial World, there was only the law of the jungle: the strong would eat the weak. It's normal to rob someone else's things, but they did not dare rob it from Ping Yang's hands. They had to find Qin Hao.

So, Qin Hao became the target of all these people. After that incident, someone followed the traitor of the Ghost sect into the tunnel, and discovered that Gui Sha had been killed, and the Evil Yin Pearl had also disappeared. Undoubtedly, all the sects had unanimously targeted their suspicions on Qin Hao, and there were even more people searching for him. Qin Hao suddenly became famous in the Martial Cultivation World, and the various sects had sent their elites out, with only one goal: to find him and s.n.a.t.c.h the Evil Yin Pearl and the Spirit Acc.u.mulation Pearl from him. He had made all the cultivation sects envious.

Qin Hao had never expected that he would be well-known one day.

Now, the sky was already dark. He was lying in a patch of gra.s.s that was as tall as a person, while his body was circulating the Eternity Spell to heal the injuries. He tried to comprehend the thunder-like aura and the power released by Ping Yang when he was fighting with him. And he carefully appreciated the understanding of life and death between the two of them when they clashed. All living things in the world, cycle in life and death…

Suddenly, Qin Hao opened his eyes. He seemed to understand something.

The boundless power in his body broke through the gaps that blocked his stage promotion. His meridians expanded instantly, and the enhanced Spirit Qi circulated quickly in his widened meridians, making him feel extremely comfortable. He let out a long roar towards the sky. He had finally broken through to the Second Stage Martial Cultivator. Qin Hao was both happy and sad, but his injuries had also recovered by half due to his advancing.

What was even more surprising was that he had a new insight into the Eternity Spell, and just as he had advanced, another wave of pleasure came. He had broken through the First Stage Eternity Spell and entered the Second Stage of Qi Refining Practice.

That night he had double happiness. The healing speed of his body increased, and after a while, Qin Hao was able to sit up.

"Ah!"

He couldn't suppress the joy and lofty sentiments in his heart, so he raised his head and roared once again. His voice echoed in the dark night sky and the deep valleys.

After the long roar, he muttered to himself: "Old Daoist, I really have to thank you. I wouldn't have broken through so quickly without you. However, since you have made me angry, I will kill you. If you are from a sect, I will destroy your sect as well. " Now, Daoist Ping Yang was listed as someone who had to be killed.

Of course, with the strength of a Second Stage Martial Cultivator, he would have difficulty killing Ping Yang. His only deadly move, the Yin Wind Bone Eroding Palm, had already been exposed. Experts could always figure out some ways to resist known moves. The only way was to increase his own strength. He decided to go to k.u.mukuli Desert to find the Black Star Stone.

He had originally planned to go back and destroy the Zuo Family, but now that something had happened with Daoist Ping Yang, he had no choice but to increase his strength. Just let the Zuo Family live for a few more days.

"You are Qin Hao." A cold voice suddenly came from behind, startling him. Qin Hao turned around, and there was a black shadow standing in the darkness a few meters away.

Qin Hao felt a chill down his spine. When did this person come here? He was too careless. Just now, he was too immersed in the joy that he didn't pay attention to his surroundings. If he were more alert, any movement within one-hundred-meter radius could not escape from his senses and no one could come quietly a few meters away from him to speak to him.

Fortunately, this person did not attack him at the first time. Otherwise, the consequences were unthinkable.
