The Legend of the Demon Hunter

The gray-robed man stretched out his hand, ready to pick up the crystal core.

The Zhulong crystal core seemed to come alive and grew a pair of wings and flew out from the gray-robed man's fingertips, escaping the gray-robed man's grasp.

The gray-robed man was well prepared. He immediately activated the three flags around him, forming a triangular encirclement that trapped the Zhulong crystal core.

The Zhulong crystal core wanted to escape again, but it was no longer able to escape under the control of the three flags. It could only float in the air and struggle continuously. The gray-robed man reached out his hand steadily and grasped the crystal core in his palm.

The gray-robed man gently wiped the surface of the crystal core, looking at it as if he was appreciating a rare work of art.

"Ning Zhiwan, you are too young after all. You know that all your plans are part of my plan. You never thought that I would be the one laughing last!" The gray-robed man showed an arrogant smile on his face.

But at this moment, the Candle Dragon Crystal Core began to tremble violently. The gray-robed man did not expect this unexpected state and was somewhat panicked. He wanted to control the crystal core, but when his spiritual power came into contact with the crystal core itself, there was a loud "boom" and the Candle Dragon Crystal Core suddenly erupted with a powerful shock wave. This shock wave was enough to destroy the Hunter King and destroyed the entire upper body of the gray-robed man, leaving only two broken legs that were blown dozens of meters away.

The Zhulong crystal core fell silently to the ground.

The Blolan Snowfield fell into silence again.

After a while, an identical grey-robed man appeared in the air again. He slowly landed next to the crystal core and patted his chest. It was obvious that he was still not satisfied with the thrill just now. He sighed, "As expected of a worldbreaker. Even with only a crystal core, it can actually explode with such powerful destructive power. Fortunately, I was prepared and used my Heavenly Soul to test it first, otherwise I would have been buried here by now."

After saying this, the man in gray robe was about to move forward, but he seemed to realize something and suddenly turned around. He saw a sloppy old man in fortune-teller's clothes standing behind him.

"So it was you who killed Qin Zhen." The fortune teller said expressionlessly.

The gray-robed man stared at the fortune teller as if he was facing a formidable enemy. He did not rush to pick up the crystal cores on the snow, but quietly stepped back and said, "Mr. Tianzhu, if you are not staying in the Shenxue Sect to enjoy your remaining years, why do you want to get involved in this mess?"

"If I hadn't come, wouldn't it be like you were the one who took advantage of me?" Tianzhu snorted coldly and said word by word: "Don't you think so? Yun, Zhong, He!"

Seeing that the other party had recognized his identity, Yun Zhonghe simply took off his gray robe, revealing his true appearance.

Tianzhu was about to attack Yun Zhonghe when his eyes were suddenly attracted by an object held in Yun Zhonghe's left hand under his gray robe. It was a ring in the shape of an Ouroboros that was swallowing its own tail.

Tianzhu, who was born in the Shenxue Sect, was very familiar with this magic weapon. He gritted his teeth and said:

"Spirit Gathering Ring!"

This is exactly the holy weapon they lost three years ago. Even Tianzhu did not expect that this holy weapon would fall into Yun Zhonghe's hands.

"I was wondering why you were able to kill Qin Zhen. It turns out that it was with the help of the Spirit Gathering Ring!" Tianzhu's eyes seemed to be spewing fire.

"In that case, are you not going to give up today, Mr. Tianzhu?" Yun Zhonghe's words became more and more pressing.

Tianzhu snorted coldly and said contemptuously: "Humph! Back then, I resigned due to the disappearance of the Soul Gathering Ring. I have spent all my efforts in searching for it over the years. I didn't expect it to fall into the hands of thieves like you. Today is a good time to settle the old and new accounts together."

After saying this, Tianzhu suddenly burst out with a powerful aura, and the snow within a hundred meters around him flew into the air against the gravity, and white and red snowflakes danced all over the sky.

The sloppy Tianzhu straightened his back all of a sudden, and at this moment, his figure seemed to become extremely tall and majestic.

Feeling the aura released by Tianzhu, Yun Zhonghe's expression became serious and he tightly grasped the spirit gathering ring in his hand.

……

Three days and three nights later.

Tianzhu's body lay quietly on the snowfield of Buluolan, and his blood dyed the snow beneath him red.

Yun Zhonghe, who was sitting on the ground, stood up with great effort. This simple action almost exhausted all his strength. He was breathing heavily, and the panting caused discomfort in his chest, making him cough violently, and what came out of his cough was blood.

Yun Zhonghe wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and smiled bitterly. If he hadn't held the Soul Gathering Ring, he would have been the one to die.

But no matter what, you are the one who laughs last.

Yun Zhonghe didn't want to cause any more trouble, so he picked up the Zhulong crystal core on the ground and quickly left the place.

……

Xiao Zhu and Xia Shi followed Chang Yu Jinnian's instructions and came to a quiet valley, where trees and clouds stood in a lush forest, making it a good place for spiritual practice.

The two searched in the valley for a long time. Xiao Zhu even pushed his perception to the limit, but did not find anything unusual in the valley.

Just when the two were about to give up, a sweet girl's voice suddenly came from the valley: "Brother, are you back? Shu'er has been waiting for you for a long time..."

Xiao Zhu and Xia Shi were immediately attracted by the sound. They looked towards the source of the sound but did not see any figure.

Xiao Zhu realized something was wrong. He pulled Xia Shi's arm, pointed to a bush, and said, "There..."

As soon as Xiao Zhu finished speaking, a white animal that looked like a civet cat came out from behind the bushes. It looked at Xiao Zhu and Xia Shi warily and said, "Who are you? Where is my brother?"

Xiao Zhu and Xia Shi looked blankly at this civet cat-like animal that was fluent in human language, but they couldn't understand what it was saying.

Xia Shi was very observant. She suddenly thought of something and took two steps towards the white raccoon cat. The white raccoon cat took two steps back nervously and asked, "Who are you? Why do you have the aura of Shenyue?"

Xia Shi waved her hands, indicating that she meant no harm, and asked softly, "Is your brother's name Yun Ke?"

Hearing Xia Shi's question, the white raccoon cat suddenly became delighted and asked excitedly: "Yes, do you know my brother?"

"What's your name? Why are you here?" Xia Shi did not answer directly, but continued to ask.

"My name is Yunshu. More than a thousand years ago, a group of people came here and took my brother away. I was only a teenager at that time. I cried and shouted desperately to stop my brother from leaving me, but my brother finally left. He told me that he had to do something very important. I clearly remember that the person who took my brother away was a woman with the aura of the Divine Moon. My brother told me that when the aura of the Divine Moon descends here again, that will be the time for him to return here."

Yunshu's voice was soft, like a veil floating in the mist.
