Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor-Chapter 107. Void Stone

Taking several steps forward, a white silver thread suddenly shot out from the swamp, emanating swiftly as it was too fast to discern.

Thud

With Chu Ming’s immense soul power, he instantly slashed his sword as the silver thread appeared. The red glow lightly radiated, burning the silver thread into ashes.

Leech!

Even though it was just a moment, Chu Ming clearly saw the silver thread’s full appearance—a tiny worm resembling a thread, without limbs, with sharp fangs near its mouth for sucking blood.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

As if in a chain reaction, the swamp slightly shifted, and countless leeches swarmed towards Chu Ming like dark clouds.

Boom

Chu Ming unleashed his Burning Fire True Skill to its peak, immediately causing the fierce and scorching Gang Yuan to burst from his body, blackening the swamp within three feet and incinerating the leeches into ashes.

Without any hesitation, Chu Ming utilized his Lightweight Skill to its fullest, becoming a phantom darting towards the distance. As he sped, the Gang Yuan around him fully unleashed, not holding back at all.

Any leech attempting to attack was burned to ashes. Although the leeches’ attack was merely equivalent to a Postnatal Martial Artist’s strike, their large numbers and hard shells still posed significant trouble for Chu Ming.

Clang

The swamp churned, and then a two-meter-long peculiar crocodile slowly emerged, its eyes as large as lanterns, covered in countless small bumps from which purple sticky fluid seeped.

Fifth Level Low Tier Demon Beast, Swamp Crocodile!

Boom!

The swamp churned as the swamp crocodile swam continuously within it, its massive body causing great waves, flinging leeches everywhere like playing in a river.

Clang Clang

As soon as the swamp crocodile appeared, Chu Ming noticed it. Blue Red Sword flashed out, transforming into a beam toward the swamp crocodile.

Scattered leeches burned to ashes, floating in the air, layers of swamp destroyed, causing various Demon Beasts to flee in panic.

The swamp crocodile was a Fifth Level Low Tier Demon Beast, with strength comparable to a True Dao First Layer Martial Artist. However, due to its tough skin and thick flesh, even a True Dao Second Layer Martial Artist would struggle.

Chu Ming could kill it, but it would take some time. The swamp was full of hidden Demon Beasts, so he dared not linger too long.

After delivering a strike, Chu Ming instantly retreated, moving a hundred meters in a step, vanishing in front of the swamp crocodile like a river’s wild goose.

Roar

A roar sounded, the white sword light struck the swamp crocodile, instantly enraging it, chasing in the direction Chu Ming disappeared.

With light footsteps, the surroundings blurred as objects flew past rapidly.

Swish

Several swamp crocodiles appeared before Chu Ming, their eyes ferocious, mouths snapping at him. Chu Ming didn’t dodge; at the critical moment, he stepped lightly, fiercely stepping on the swamp crocodile’s head, flitting over the swamp.

After racing for three or four minutes, Chu Ming saw the edge of a desert in the distance, hazy and mysterious.

Suddenly arriving, Chu Ming stepped into the desert area, the pursuing swamp crocodiles immediately lost their target, tails flicking, disappearing from Chu Ming’s sight.

Exhale

Chu Ming exhaled, surveyed the surroundings, the desert wide and barren, sand flying, a chill seeping from beneath his feet—the sand was cold.

Chu Ming didn’t know the desert’s extent but could only choose a direction to proceed. Now, he needed to find other sect disciples and regroup quickly.

Moving a hundred meters forward, the desert remained calm, but Chu Ming dared not relax, his soul power continuously scanning, remaining vigilant.

Just as Chu Ming sped ahead, suddenly, his heartbeat accelerated, his body instantaneously activating the Nine Clone Techniques to its peak. Nine shadows darted in different directions, appearing a hundred meters away.

Almost at the moment Chu Ming dashed away, the earth rumbled with thunderous roars, three shadows burst from the ground, targeting Chu Ming’s previous position.

The three shadows were yellow, almost blending with the desert. After missing their target, Chu Ming immediately discerned their forms—they were three enormous and ferocious Sand Beasts.

Each roughly a hundred meters long, covered entirely in slime, completely yellow, without eyes. Their entire heads were monstrous mouths, with rows of terrifying sharp teeth extending deep into their stomachs.

One Sand Beast even had a red illusory stone atop its head, emitting strange power. One body twist sounded as if the void was being whipped.

The three Sand Beasts’ emanated power was formidable, comparable to Core Disciple Sun Minghui.

"That’s Void Stone!"

Chu Ming’s face changed. Void Stone was a special mineral used to craft Storage Rings, even a fingernail-sized piece valued at thirty to forty thousand Lower Grade Spirit Stones. This large piece could sell for fifty thousand Lower Grade Spirit Stones.

A Top Tier Profound Level Attack Gloves valued only thirty thousand Lower Grade Spirit Stones. Fifty thousand Lower Grade Spirit Stones could make Chu Ming rich overnight.

Boom Boom Boom

The three immense Sand Beasts crashed towards Chu Ming, dust flying, yellow sand billowing, instantly piercing the ground.

"Thousand Leaves Fall!"

Buzz Buzz Buzz

Continuous spiritual power vibrations, sword light bursting from Chu Ming, like falling leaves in the air, drifting with traces of condensed killing intent.

Thud Thud Thud.....

Two other Sand Beasts hit by the sword light were instantly shattered, becoming countless flowing sand. This time, Chu Ming unleashed his full power for a quick victory.

However, the leaf-like sword light left only a shallow white mark on the middle Sand Beast’s body, quickly covered by sand, erasing any trace.

"Strength increased?"

Chu Ming contemplated, aiming for the Void Stone on the middle Sand Beast’s head did not kill it, merely leaving a white mark.

Striking again, a radiant white sword light emerged from his sword, imbued with Wind and Rain Realm, attacking the Sand Beast.

Thud

This time, the middle Sand Beast wasn’t so lucky, killed by Chu Ming’s strike, turning into flowing sand.

Clang

The Void Stone fell to the sand.
