Chapter 281 Long Time Coming

In that clash, the master of Yama Sect, Shen Dong suffered some setbacks and was sent flying. Meanwhile, Qin Chao stood tall like a demon, unmoved by the attack. However, blood flowed from his mouth, nostrils, and ears, indicating that he too had been injured.

Shen Dong's Lost Soul Yama Flag was quite peculiar, and the eruption of the Evil King's Half-Moon Kill not only harmed the Yama Sect master but also injured himself.

"You little punk!" Shen Dong leaped to his feet and angrily declared, "How dare you hurt me! Very well, you won't leave here alive today!"

With a hand seal, Shen Dong summoned his power, and Qin Chao felt a gust of wind behind his ear. Su Ji shouted out a warning, "Be careful!"

In truth, Qin Chao had suffered significant damage to his true essence. He took out a Returning Element Pill, put it in his mouth, and lowered his head. The pill turned into a continuous stream of vital energy, nourishing his sea of qi.

A black shadow flew over his head. It was Hu Ke, who had been controlled by someone else. This female zombie of the Flying Corpse level was incredibly powerful when she attacked, equivalent to the strength of a mid-level practitioner of the Divine Power. Under Shen Dong's control, she was even more formidable, reaching the peak of Divine Power.

Qin Chao felt a chill and gave Hu Ke a palm strike to force her back. Unexpectedly, his own hand shook with pain, and he staggered back several steps.

Hu Ke's body was already that of a zombie, and now it seemed to have absorbed some corpse energy, making her body as hard as steel.

At the same time, other disciples of Yama Sect were controlling a fresh wave of corpse energy, and they were besieging the righteous cultivators.

For the first time, Qin Chao felt powerless.

"You, as a descendant of the Rakshasa Sect, is this all you're capable of?" Seeing victory within his grasp, Shen Dong couldn't help but laugh heartily. "Once I kill you and use the Soul Search Technique to find your Nine Nether Magic Art and the Diamond Sutra cultivation method, I will become the first person to shine throughout history! Then, I will be able to rule the world, hahaha!"

In the heart of Qin Chao, there was hidden anger. The ambition of the Yama Sect's leader was too great. Anyone who had the idea of dominating the world seemed to have a bad end.

"Qin Chao, there is another way to turn the tide!" Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded in Qin Chao's ear just when he was at a loss.

Looking around, Qin Chao did not find the figure of Li Baishan. It seemed that he used some secret technique to transmit his voice to Qin Chao's ear. Li Baishan was truly extraordinary.

"That sword in your hand, if I'm not mistaken, should be the Evil King sword." Li Baishan's voice was calm but also contained some surprise. "This sword caused a lot of bloodshed a thousand years ago and was said to have been lost. I didn't expect it to appear in your hands."

Qin Chao did not understand the connection between turning the tide and the Evil King sword.

"Your sword has two forms, the normal form and the super form. The super form is the Red Emperor Evil King sword, the nemesis of all evil. As long as you use the Red Emperor Evil King sword to the extreme and pierce it into the ground, you can scare away the Zombie King. Those corpse kings who lose their corpse qi support will become useless. Yama Sect will then be powerless."

Qin Chao's eyes lit up. So there was another way. It seemed that there was always a way out.

"But this method is very dangerous. If the Red Emperor Evil King sword is not in its peak state and you still want to scare the Zombie King, you may not be able to scare it but rather anger it. In that case, everyone present may be killed by it." Li Baishan reminded him.

However, no matter how difficult the method was, Qin Chao was willing to give it a try. While avoiding Hu Ke's attacks, he fully activated the Vajra Sutra in his body and temporarily suppressed the Nine Nether Magic Art.

Suddenly, his eyes turned golden, and the Evil King sword in his hand was plated with gold. The Red Emperor Evil King sword appeared in front of everyone again.

"Roar!" As soon as the Red Emperor Evil King sword appeared, a brilliant golden light burst forth. Hu Ke seemed to be unable to bear it and took two steps back.

Qin Chao poured all his power into the Red Emperor Evil King Sword and said, "Red Emperor Evil King Sword, I entrust you with everything!" The golden sword shone even brighter and appeared like a small sun rising in the arena. The corpse kings on the field were filled with fear and cried out mournfully. "What kind of sword is this that has such power?" Shen Dong, the Sect Leader of the Yama Sect, was also filled with panic and uncertainty as he looked at Qin Chao holding the Red Emperor Evil King Sword.

Qin Chao could never forget that in his small world, the Red Emperor Evil King Sword transformed into a giant golden-red light sword. Although the current form was still strong, it was not enough to intimidate the zombie king. "Give me more power, Evil King Sword!" Qin Chao urged all of his true essence into the sword. However, the light on the Evil King Sword seemed to have reached its limit, and nothing more could change.

Unlike in the small world, Qin Chao's realm was not high enough in the real world to summon the true form of the Evil King Sword. "Donor, let me lend you a hand!" Suddenly, Fa Xiang formed a secret seal, the six-armed seal, and sealed all of his power into the big handprint. Then he hit Qin Chao from behind. With a loud bang, the big handprint hit Qin Chao's back.

Qin Chao did not dodge because he knew that Fa Xiang would not deceive him. As expected, when the big handprint exploded on his back, Qin Chao felt a sudden surge of power enter his body. Then, as if pushed by someone, he broke through the threshold of the Foundation stage and entered the realm of Divine Power.

When his power reached its peak, Qin Chao gained his own insight into magic spells. All laws come from nature... Whether it's magic or Buddhism, the ultimate result is the same. In fact, supernatural powers were not originally used as a means of combat, but as a way to resist divine power. Once one crossed the thunder tribulation, divine power would descend. At that time, one could only rely on magical instruments and supernatural powers to resist divine power.

With the help of Fa Xiang, Qin Chao's true essence poured into the Evil King Sword like a mighty river.

In the hands of Qin Chao, the crimson-gold sword, named Red Emperor Evil King Sword, seemed to have reached its ultimate state as golden light began to condense around it. Finally, a huge gold and red sword appeared in Qin Chao's hands. This was the super form of the Red Emperor Evil King Sword, a sword that could frighten even the zombie king.

"Go, Evil King Sword!" Qin Chao exclaimed, his heart filled with joy at the sight of the sword. He plunged the sword into the ground, as effortlessly as cutting tofu. The previously calm ground began to shake, and a faint cry could be heard.

At the same time, all the corpse kings, including Hu Ke, also began to cry out in pain, as if they were all experiencing the same suffering. In the midst of the earth, there was a terrifying force that was confronting Qin Chao.

Qin Chao knew that this was the zombie king who was about to awaken. "Evil King Sword! Cut him down for me!" he yelled in anger. So many innocent people had died, and Yama Sect had been exploited by him.

Suddenly, the Evil King Sword disappeared from Qin Chao's hand and in an instant, it had entered the ground. Through the sword, Qin Chao seemed to see a black shadow inside the earth, which stared back at him with its cold eyes. With just that one look, Qin Chao felt a chill throughout his body. What level of power was this? It was definitely not something he could currently fight against.

Qin Chao bit his tongue in secret, using the pain to stimulate his body to prevent it from stiffening. He controlled the Evil King Sword and continued to chase after the black shadow.

"Kid, how dare you disturb my sleep!" The black shadow unexpectedly transmitted a message to him. "When I come out of seclusion, it will be your death!"

With that, the black shadow suddenly disappeared into the mud, leaving no trace behind. The black mist that had been enveloping the academy began to dissipate as the zombie king left.

Without the support of their corpse energy, the movements of the corpse kings slowed down. Some cultivators raised their swords and managed to sever their heads.

"The corpse energy is gone!"

"Great, it seems like the zombie king has also fled!"

"Oh my god, it was a Demon Collector of the demonic path who saved us!"

Everyone couldn't believe this fact, but it was indeed Qin Chao who had saved them. Furthermore, in order to save them, Qin Chao even provoked the terrifying zombie king.

The zombie king, each one was a presence at the Golden Body stage. Once they crossed the Tribulation, they would be invincible.

As for Qin Chao, he had only just crossed the threshold into the Divine Power stage. Without the Evil King Sword, the Nine Nether Magic Art, the Diamond Sutra and other peerless treasures and abilities, his cultivation was nothing to speak of.

But no matter what, to go from an ordinary person to the Divine Power stage in less than a year of cultivation in the world of cultivation, Qin Chao's growth speed was also something that left everyone dumbfounded.

This was not only thanks to his innate demonic physique.

"Qin Chao, you did a good deed!" Shen Dong saw that the situation was already lost and angrily shouted, "There will be a long day ahead, and I will definitely avenge this!"

After speaking, his body turned into a ferocious black smoke and he seemed to be about to escape with his disciples.

"Where are you running?" Qin Chao immediately waved the Evil King Sword that had not yet recovered. But Shen Dong and his group fled even faster and disappeared from the playground in the blink of an eye.

Qin Chao's sword only managed to cut a small piece of black smoke.

Although the enemy had escaped, no matter what, Yama Sect's conspiracy had failed this time.

Seeing Shen Dong and his group escape, Qin Chao's internal power also dissipated. He leaned on the sword and almost sat down on the ground.

He had overdrawn his power too much today, and his injuries were also very serious. There were many wounds on his body that he couldn't heal just by relying on his recovery ability for a while.

His true essence consumption was too great, so his recovery ability naturally decreased a lot.

"Qin Zhenren, although we are enemies, I still want to thank you today." Jiang Yifan put away his sword and clasped his fists toward Qin Chao.
