“They’re there, hurry up and chase.”

“The Tenth Princess is right ahead. Hurry up and chase her.”

“Kill!”

Among the mountains, figures appeared, and there were at least several thousand of them weaving through the mountains.

Remaining composed, Ye Ping pulled Xia Qingmo along all the way.

“Benefactor, why don’t you use Sword Kinesis Flight?”

Xia Qingmo, who was being pulled along, felt a bit uncomfortable. Being a princess, she could not stand running wildly like that.

What made Xia Qingmo even more curious was why Ye Ping was running instead of using Sword Kinesis Flight.

She felt nauseous.

“I don’t know how to use Sword Kinesis Flight.”

Ye Ping felt a little embarrassed too. He didn’t know Sword Kinesis Flight and it was mainly because Su Changyu didn’t teach him how to.

Later, when he went to Jin Nation Academy, Ye Ping did not learn the Sword Kinesis Flight either. It was not that it wasn’t taught in Jin Nation Academy nor was he lazy, but rather, he only wanted to learn what Su Changyu taught to him.

“????”

Xia Qingmo was a little dumbfounded.

Ye Ping was in the early-stage of Foundation Establishment and had the Blood and Qi Furnace. He could also instantly set up an array formation, and yet he said he didn’t know how to use the Sword Kinesis Flight.

It was the same as a peerless prodigy saying that he could not write.

However, Xia Qingmo immediately came back to her senses and looked at Ye Ping.

“Benefactor, how about I teach you the Sword Kinesis Flight?”

Xia Qingmo said, she really couldn’t stand the jerky feeling anymore.

“Princess Qingmo, I don’t mean anything else, but my eldest Senior Brother is a peerless Sword Immortal and I want him to teach it to me. Thank you for your kindness.”

Ye Ping ran wildly all the way while thanking her.

“No, Benefactor, if you keep running like this, I… won’t be able to stand it.”

Xia Qingmo was caught between laughter and tears. She really couldn’t take it any longer and Ye Ping was being too fast. If her physical body was strong, it would be fine.

However, she really couldn’t withstand it.

“But…”

In an instant, Ye Ping felt embarrassed. He could tell that Xia Qingmo was indeed feeling terrible as she could barely breathe and her pretty face was flushed too.

However, if he slowed down, they would definitely catch up to him.

If he didn’t slow down, Xia Qingmo would feel uncomfortable.

‘Ah, women are so troublesome.’

Ye Ping was a little perplexed.

“Benefactor, don’t worry, although I may not teach you the Sword Kinesis Flight better than your brother does, it definitely won’t be terrible. It’s the best Sword Kinesis Flight in the Kṣitigarbha Pavilion of the Great Xia Dynasty.”

“If you really don’t need it in the future, you can relearn it from your Senior Brother.”

“Desperate times call for desperate measures. I don’t think your Senior Brother will blame you.”

Xia Qingmo painstakingly persuaded Ye Ping.

Indeed, they got to that topic.

Ye Ping wavered too.

“Well, in that case, we can only make do. Ah.”

Ye Ping’s tone was full of helplessness.

At this moment, Xia Qingmo was a little uncomfortable.

She had a nickname in the Great Xia Dynasty, which was the ‘Walking Sutra Pavilion’. She had basically read all the sutras and secret manuals in the Great Xia Dynasty, as well as the other four dynasties. Hence, she had heard about all strange things before.

Everyone in the Great Xia Dynasty wanted secret manuals.

However, she had now taken the initiative to teach Ye Ping, but to her surprise, he turned her down and was full of disdain.

All of a sudden, Xia Qingmo wanted to know who Ye Ping’s eldest Senior Brother was.

However, she thought that it would be better to impart the secret method to him now.

“Benefactor, this secret method is called the Carefree Sword Kinesis Flight which is a famous technique in the Great Xia Dynasty. I will chant the incantation now, remember it well.”

Xia Qingmo continued.

“My heart is like water, my will is like the wind, my body is free, my mind is at ease…”

Xia Qingmo imparted as much of the Carefree Sword Kinesis Flight to Ye Ping as she could.

The incantation was not long so Ye Ping instantly memorized it.

He then began to comprehend.

“Benefactor, if this secret method is difficult, I will give you another one.”

After Ye Ping memorized the incantation, Xia Qingmo continued to speak.

In fact, she had some regrets.

Perhaps because Ye Ping had somewhat despised her, she taught Ye Ping the best Sword Kinesis Flight found in the Kṣitigarbha Pavilion.

The Sword Kinesis Flight was the most basic sword technique, but the Carefree Sword Kinesis Flight was not that easy to learn,

Even a genius of the Sword Dao would need several months to comprehend it.

She didn’t know if Ye Ping would be able to truly master it after she imparted it to him.

If he couldn’t, it would be a problem.

However, as soon as Xia Qingmo finished speaking, a flying sword appeared in Ye Ping’s hand.

It was the flying sword given to him by Su Changyu.

Ye Ping had always kept it in his dantian, and now that he had learned the technique of Sword Kinesis Flight, he intended to give it a try.

“My heart is like water, my will is like the wind, my body is free, my mind is at ease…”

Ye Ping closed his eyes and felt it carefully.

However, at this moment, a gust of cold breeze blew over slowly.

In an instant, the flying sword in Ye Ping’s hand appeared at his feet after it had grown several times larger, as if it had gained a life of its own!

Phew!

In the next moment, Ye Ping’s speed skyrocketed ten times as he seemed to transform into a clear wind, crossing thousands of mountains and rivers.

“Carefree!”

In an instant, Xia Qingmo knew what was happening.

Ye Ping had not only comprehended the Carefree Sword Kinesis Flight, but he had also managed to reach the second realm in just ten short breaths.

My heart is like water; that was the first realm where the sword technique was like water and the sword was soft.

My will is like the wind; that was the second realm where the sword was fast.

My body is free; that was the third realm where he was carefree in the world and carried his sword along.

I am carefree; That was the fourth realm where heaven and earth were carefree and he could fly on the sword freely.

Generally, even a genius of the Sword Dao would need to spend several months to barely reach the first realm.

However, Ye Ping took only ten breaths to reach the second realm.

His sword was like the wind and it followed his heart.

‘This aptitude… is demonic.’

Even Xia Qingmo suddenly felt that Ye Ping’s aptitude was no inferior to her brothers.

She could hardly imagine there being such a genius in the tiny Qingzhou.

Ye Ping was like the wind, roaming freely between heaven and earth.

Above the dome of the sky, Ye Ping felt the thrill of Sword Kinesis Flight and opened his eyes. Although he was a little scared, the control made him feel extremely comfortable.

In the blink of an eye, Ye Ping disappeared several thousand meters away.

In another blink of an eye, Ye Ping was back in the same place.

The increase in speed was simply terrifying.

Previously, with the help of his physical body, Ye Ping’s daily travel limit was 1,500 kilometers.

However, after mastering the Carefree Sword Kinesis Flight, he felt that he could travel 15,000 kilometers a day or even more.

“How did this guy’s speed suddenly become so fast?”

“Quick, take chase, cut the crap.”

“If we fail this mission, we will all be doomed. Hurry and chase.”

“Swallow some recovery pills and chase after him, don’t let him escape.”

At this moment, several figures among the mountains and forests ascended to the sky. They had previously hidden among the mountains and forests, because they were afraid of being discovered by Ye Ping. Now that Ye Ping was using Sword Kinesis Flight, they decided not to hide their abilities any longer.

They rode their Dharma artifact and chased after Ye Ping.

“Benefactor, run.”

Xia Qingmo’s voice sounded. Upon sight of so many pursuers, the first thing she did was to tell Ye Ping to run.

Ye Ping did not hesitate either. He simply took a glance before turning into a gust of wind and vanishing.

He was so fast that it was outrageous.

Above the sky dome, the Fiendcelestial Cult disciples who were in a dense formation were dumbfounded.

Ye Ping was too fast, so much that they could not see him with their naked eyes.

If they could chase, they would naturally do so, but the problem was that he was too fast.

However, before they could react, Ye Ping suddenly returned to the same spot.

This time, the Fiendcelestial Cult disciples were dumbstruck again.

They didn’t know what happened. Why did Ye Ping come back again?

“Benefactor, what’s wrong with you?”

Not to mention them, even Xia Qingmo was a bit curious.

‘We’ve already run, why are we back?’

She couldn’t figure out what he was thinking.

However, Ye Ping, who was on the flying sword, was shocked.

He did run away at first, but when he was leaving, he took a look at the group of people and found that they were all disciples of the Fiendcelestial Cult.

Fiendcelestial Cult disciples.

If they were other cultivators, he would definitely run regardless of their cultivation level. After all, he knew that a massive number of ants could kill an elephant.

However, the Fiendcelestial Cult disciples were different.

They were merit for him.

In Ye Ping’s eyes, the Fiendcelestial Cult disciples equated to merit. It was simple to understand.

Hence, after snapping back to his senses, Ye Ping turned around and returned.

“Princess Qingmo, are the people who are chasing you from the Fiendcelestial Cult?”

Ye Ping asked.

“Yes, within the Jin Nation, there is only one Fiendcelestial Cult that dares to fight against the Great Xia Dynasty.”

Xia Qingmo was a bit confused as she didn’t understand what exactly Ye Ping wanted to express.

“Princess Qingmo, in the future, tell me such things earlier.”

After getting an exact answer, Ye Ping immediately stopped being worried and seemed to be looking forward to something as he stared at the Fiendcelestial Cult disciples.

The disciples were shocked too.

They also did not understand what exactly Ye Ping was thinking.

‘What’s wrong with the disciples of the Fiendcelestial Cult?’

‘Aren’t the Fiendcelestial Cult disciples strong? Big Brother, what are you thinking?’

‘Can you be more decent?’

“No nonsense, kill.”

“Capture the princess alive.”

“Kill!”

However, no matter what tricks Ye Ping was playing, they didn’t care anymore. One by one, they charged towards Ye Ping to kill him. In an instant, all sorts of Dharma treasures and flying swords charged towards Ye Ping.

In a nutshell, their mission was to capture the princess alive, and so they didn’t care about anything else.

Thousands of figures rushed toward Ye Ping, forming a circle and surrounding him above the sky dome.

“Benefactor, run. You might be powerful, but you can’t beat them when you’re outnumbered. Don’t be impulsive.”

In an instant, Xia Qingmo hurriedly told Ye Ping to run. Although she knew that he was very powerful, he couldn’t go on like this.

So many people were charging towards them and even Golden Core realm cultivators would have to die there.

Moreover, most of those Fiendcelestial Cult disciples were Foundation Establishment cultivators and could be lethal when they teamed up.

However, flying above the sky dome, Ye Ping patted Xia Qingmo’s shoulder without saying anything. However, the confidence in his eyes made Xia Qingmo fall silent.

Phew!

In an instant, when all the Fiendcelestial Cult disciples surrounded Ye Ping, an infinite amount of golden light emanated from Ye Ping’s body.

At this moment, Ye Ping was like a sun, and behind his head, an intense Golden Wheel of Expiation emerged. It was radiant and dazzling.

“Ah!”

“Golden Wheel of Expiation?”

“This is the Golden Wheel of Expiation?”

“Run, this guy has a Golden Wheel of Expiation?”

“This is the supreme expert of the Great Xia Dynasty. He’s pretending to be weak.”

“Quick, run.”

“The rumor is true, he really has the Golden Wheel of Expiation.”

“Impossible, this is impossible, he’s only in his early twenties. Yet, he can actually condense the Golden Wheel of Expiation, I don’t believe it, I don’t believe it.”

“Quick, quick, quick go inform the lords. Even if we die, we must spread this news. Otherwise, more people will die at his hands in the future.”

“Ye Ping, you are really scheming and despicable. You are a villain.”

“You are even worse than a disciple of the fiend sects. You are so despicable.”

Thousands of disciples of the Fiendcelestial Cult were instantly melted by the Golden Wheel of Expiation and in one go, the thousands of disciples died in the middle of the sky dome without making a single sound.

The Fiendcelestial Cult disciples behind them, who had escaped the ordeal, couldn’t help but panic and curse at Ye Ping, their eyes full of hatred.

However, no matter how they cursed, all thousands of power of merit entered Ye Ping’s body.

At this moment, the Fiendcelestial Cult disciples were dumbfounded.

Xia Qingmo was confused too.

His physical body was invincible, he had the Blood and Qi Furnace, he could instantly set up an array formation, he had incredible Sword Dao aptitude, and now he had the Golden Wheel of Expiation.

What kind of a genius must one be to do that?

There were incredible geniuses in the Great Xia Dynasty but not to such an extent.

He was only in his early twenties, and yet he could already condense the Blood and Qi Furnace and create a Teleportation Array by tossing a few Spirit Stones without the need for array artifacts or array diagrams. He managed to learn the best Sword Kinesis Flight technique of the Great Xia Dynasty in ten breaths and even reached the second realm.

Now, he also had the Golden Wheel of Expiation.

Xia Qingmo was completely speechless.

She also finally understood why Ye Ping turned around and came back.

What were demons the most afraid of? The Golden Light of Expiation, of course. Besides, he used the Golden Wheel of Expiation.

As a knowledgeable person, Xia Qingmo understood better than anyone else, just how exaggerated the Golden Wheel of Expiation was.

In the Jin Nation which was one of the Ten Nations, there was only one person who owned the Golden Wheel of Expiation.

In a stronger nation like Chen Nation, the leader of the Ten Nations, there were only three who had the Golden Wheel of Expiation.

In the Great Xia Dynasty, there were no more than a hundred powerhouses who had the Golden Wheel of Expiation.

Although the Great Xia Dynasty did not have any powerful Buddhist sects, it was enough to prove how difficult it was to condense the Golden Wheel of Expiation.

Under normal circumstances, Daoist Masters who had the Golden Light of Expiation would have to accumulate merit for thousands of years before they could condense the Golden Wheel of Expiation.

According to Ye Ping’s Qi and blood, Xia Qingmo could determine that Ye Ping was definitely not older than twenty-five years old.

He was just a year or two older than her.

At this age, he condensed the Golden Wheel of Expiation.

It was really outrageous.

At this moment, Xia Qingmo completely understood what it meant for there to always be someone better.

It was too absurd.

All the Fiendcelestial Cult disciples collapsed at this moment. A second ago, they were just surrounding and sieging Ye Ping with maniacal expressions and yet, in the next moment, they scattered everywhere, wishing they could grow more legs to run.

“Golden Light of Expiation Sword.”

Unfortunately, faced with so much merit, Ye Ping did not show any mercy.

Thousands of golden Sword Qi surged out and having mastered the Carefree Sword Kinesis Flight, Ye Ping’s Sword Qi became much stronger and there was also an unparalleled boost in his speed.

In just a flash, thousands of Fiendcelestial Cult disciples died under the Golden Light of Expiation sword.

Ye Ping was like a heavenly god.

In the end, tens of thousands of beams of golden light emanated from his physical body, expiating the Fiendcelestial Cult disciples.

A total of nearly tens of thousands of Fiendcelestial Cult disciples were all buried in Ye Ping’s Golden Wheel of Expiation.

There were tens of thousands of merits that were large, though not as massive compared to the millions of resentful spirits he expiated back then. However, he still got these for free.

However, at this moment, an indescribable feeling appeared and Ye Ping’s eyelids twitched. In an instant, the flying sword he rode vanished right on the spot.

Boom.

In the moment Ye Ping disappeared, a terrifying explosion sounded, and a flying sword blew up the void.

The aftermath of the explosion made Ye Ping shiver while his hair stood on ends and his blood and Qi surged.

Someone had sneaked up on him.

Ye Ping coughed, forcing himself to stabilize his Qi and blood while looking around vigilantly.

Phew!

Another Sword Qi charged over.

Ye Ping disappeared in place half a step in advance. Fortunately, he had cultivated the Carefree Sword Kinesis Flight. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to shun even with an alarm in advance.

“Benefactor, fly towards the south where the Lizhou is. We will reach in less than six hours, and once we do, we will be safe.”

Xia Qingmo, who was behind Ye Ping, told him to fly towards the south. She had calculated, and given Ye Ping’s speed, they would definitely reach Lizhou in less than six hours.

“Excellent!”

Ye Ping did not waste time and turned into a gust of wind before flying south on his flying sword.

“You can’t escape.”

However, just at this moment, Han Mo spoke.

He came here with the Fiendcelestial Cult disciples and did not intend to intervene at first. Since all the powerhouses of Jin Nation were there, he did not want to reveal his identity. Hence, he secretly observed and thought that with so many Fiendcelestial Cult disciples, he would be able to capture the Tenth Princess alive anyway.

Once he captured the Tenth Princess, everything would be good.

However, he did not expect Ye Ping to have the Golden Wheel of Expiation and that had indeed shocked Han Mo.

At this moment, Han Mo not only wanted to capture the Tenth Princess alive, but he also wanted to catch Ye Ping.

Ye Ping was incredibly powerful for his age and he would definitely have an unparalleled legacy.

He wanted to get Ye Ping’s inheritance.

“Senior, how is Fellow Daoist Wang doing? Is he dead yet? When he wakes up, tell him I really didn’t know he was that weak. If I knew, I wouldn’t have struck so hard.”

“Senior, as his master, didn’t you teach him not to trouble others if he’s too incompetent? This time, he’s lucky enough to have met me. Otherwise, he might really be in trouble.”

They escaped towards the south and Ye Ping deliberately provoked Han Mo to make him lose his rationality.

However, Han Mo did not care about Ye Ping’s words.

Having lived for hundreds of years, he would be a fool if he fell for that.

“Don’t struggle, you won’t be able to escape me.”

Han Mo said coldly.

At that moment, he squeezed his fingers, and a terrifying sword array appeared in front of Ye Ping.

Phew!

Ye Ping did not waste his breath and turned around to shun the terrifying sword array. At the same time, Ye Ping looked at Xia Qingmo anxiously.

“Do you have Spirit Stones?”

Ye Ping asked.

“No…”

Xia Qingmo was a little embarrassed.

She basically spent all the Spirit Stones she had.

“We’re in trouble.”

Ye Ping frowned. He had used up all the Spirit Stones on the Teleportation Array just now.

At this moment, he had some regrets about not asking Li Yue to get more Spirit Stones.

However, who would have thought that such a thing could happen even after teleporting home?

Ye Ping, who was a bit depressed, could only hop around freely.

Han Mo wanted to nab the Tenth Princess alive and didn’t want to kill Ye Ping either. Hence, he was stable with his attacks and was not too harsh. Otherwise, things would have been different.

Five minutes later, Ye Ping ran around like a headless fly.

However, at this moment, Xia Qingmo spoke up.

“Benefactor, it’s the Linhe Ghost Grave in front of us and there are bewitching arrays everywhere. The resentment here is strong too, be careful.”

Xia Qingmo reminded Ye Ping that Linhe Ghost Grave was ahead.

“Linhe Ghost Grave?”

For a moment Ye Ping was a little shocked.

He did not expect that he had mistakenly come to Linhe Ghost Grave again.

In an instant, a bold idea popped up in Ye Ping’s mind.

Bang!

While Ye Ping thought about it, Han Mo’s Sword Qi had already surged over and the terrifying explosive power directly blasted Ye Ping thousands of meters away from the high altitude.

Pfft.

Ye Ping spat out blood, his body quaked and his blood and Qi surged. If not for his strong physique, he would have died after taking that blow.

“His physique is like a dragon, how terrifying.”

In the sky dome, Han Mo couldn’t help but look shocked.

However, after that, he turned into a bolt of lightning and charged towards Ye Ping.

Ye Ping instantly opened the 36 Torch Dragon Immortal Apertures and cast the Torch Dragon Immortal Seal, causing his Qi and blood to surge as he rode the flying sword to the Linhe Ghost Grave.

In just an instant, Ye Ping’s speed skyrocketed to the extreme.

Ye Ping covered the distance of 500 meters in just three breaths and entered the Linhe Ghost Grave.

That was his extreme speed.

“Do you want to improve your strength by expiating the resentful spirits?”

“Do you think I will give you the chance?”

In the next moment, Han Mo also appeared in the Linhe Ghost Grave.

His voice was cold and he immediately guessed Ye Ping’s thoughts. However, he did not panic and instead felt that Ye Ping was silly.

However, in reality, that was not Ye Ping’s plan.
