Creation of the Universe

Each of Kong Shang's three thousand soul-stealing nails is a second-grade spiritual weapon.

Although the quality is not high, the huge quantity is frightening.

No one can survive the attacks of so many hidden weapons. Countless masters have died here, and it seems that Shen Zhan will not be an exception today.

Kong Shang was confident in his killing move, and Shen Jingjuan couldn't wait to see Shen Zhan being pierced through the body by countless soul-stealing nails and dying in pain.

The thought of that scene made her extremely excited.

When the Soul-Snatching Nail flew in front of Shen Zhan, he was suddenly enveloped by a sky-blue light, and above his head a wonderful landscape painting was slowly unfolding.

Kong Shang took a closer look, and his many years of experience in the martial arts world made him feel that something was very wrong.

"What? Such a thing could happen?"

Before he could finish his words, he heard a clang sound, as if some magical weapon was suddenly unsheathed.

Immediately afterwards, countless sword shadows flew out from the scroll and easily swallowed up Kong Shang's three thousand soul-stealing nails in an instant. This power was terrifying and domineering, showing an unstoppable and powerful force.

"what!!!"

Kong Shang was shocked, and Shen Jingjuan beside him screamed again.

At this time, Kong Shang was too busy to rescue him in time, because the sword shadows in front of him were overlapping and transformed into a huge green sword light, which slashed towards him with the force of thunder.

"Damn it! I was careless!"

Kong Shang roared angrily and exerted all his life's cultivation. He knew that the sword light was incredibly powerful and had a wide range. He had nowhere to escape and could only fight with all his might, hoping to win in danger.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, Xie Qi, who was standing on the roof of the carriage, turned around and looked into the woods. He felt the astonishing pressure and doubts arose in his heart.

"That's not Fourth Brother's aura. Who is he fighting?"

Feeling that Kong Shang might need his help, Xie Qi gently released his left hand, threw the body of Li Zhu, whose neck he had already twisted, on the spot, and turned to rush in the direction of the pressure.

Li Zhu and Wang Xin were no match for Xie Qi alone. They never realized until their death that they were actually being used by Shen Zhan. Originally, they would not have died so tragically.

It was thanks to them that they held Xie Qi back that Shen Zhan was relieved of a lot of pressure.

When Xie Qi saw the rows of trees nearby that were cut in half by a sword energy, he felt something was wrong. As far as he knew, there should not have been any experts interfering in the pursuit of Shen Zhan this time. How could there be such horrific traces of battle left here?

Continuing forward, Xie Qi suddenly stopped. He saw that Wanlizhui, the spiritual beast raised by Kong Shang, had also died here.

Wanli Zhui's wings were cut off by the sword energy, and he fell into a pool of blood, already dead.

This scene made Xie Qi even more worried. He didn't know what Kong Shang's current condition was. He searched all the way through the remaining spiritual power around him, and finally saw Kong Shang's back in front of him.

Kong Shang was standing there with his back to Xie Qi, motionless, and all the surrounding grass and trees were leaning in the same direction, covered with the mess of sword marks.

"Fourth brother, what on earth happened..."

Xie Qi stepped forward and just as he put his hand on Kong Shang's shoulder, the latter fell forward heavily, and his head left his body and rolled slowly to the side.

"Stay here and don't move, or I'll kill you."

Shen Zhan pushed Shen Jingjuan aside, then bent down under the heavy burden and spat out a mouthful of pus and blood.

Just now, the map of mountains, rivers and stars was out of his control again and went berserk. The sword energy that flew out of the map not only blocked Kong Shang's three thousand soul-stealing nails for him, but also killed the latter on the spot with the final blow.

If Shen Zhan had not used all his strength to control the map of mountains, rivers and stars and forcibly retracted the sword energy, no one knows what danger would have occurred at this time.

Although the sword energy saved him, Shen Zhan knew that it was just a coincidence and there was no guarantee that the sword energy would not deal with him like it did to kill Kong Shang.

Shen Jingjuan had already been frightened by the previous scene and was trembling all over, her mind was blank. Even though Shen Zhan was leaning over with his back to her and looked defenseless, she did not dare to take any risky actions.

After a bloody battle, Shen Zhan's physical strength and injuries had pushed him to the limit of his body and he was no longer able to continue fighting.

Next, he had to find an absolutely safe place to recuperate and heal his injuries, and only make plans after his body recovered.

"Let's keep moving forward!"

Shen Zhan couldn't relax for a moment. He knew that if he stayed here for a long time, Xie Qi would come looking for him sooner or later.

Shen Jingjuan's initial contempt and hatred for Shen Zhan had long been replaced by a huge fear in her heart. Now she did whatever Shen Zhan said and did not dare to disobey at all.

The two of them walked for a while. Although they were not walking very fast, Shen Zhan was careful not to leave obvious traces along the way, hoping that this would hinder Xie Qi's judgment and prevent him from finding this place immediately.

This bought them a lot of time. Shen Zhan took Shen Jingjuan to a secluded place in the mountains and decided to rest there for a while.

After regulating his breathing, Shen Zhan gradually felt much calmer. He decided to open the map of mountains, rivers and stars again and try.

"You...what are you going to do again?"

Having witnessed the astonishing power of this picture with his own eyes, Shen Jingjuan was now a little paranoid and his face turned pale with fright.

Shen Zhan ignored her reaction and continued to use his spiritual power to unfold the map of mountains, rivers and stars. This time, everything was calm and nothing unusual happened. Shen Zhan also took out the bag that the little boy had given him when he went abroad.

Shen Zhan was very curious about what was in the bundle because he had never had the chance to open it before. He only knew that the child said it contained some money and food, but in fact there was more than that.

After taking out a roast goose wrapped in lotus leaves, Shen Zhan noticed that there seemed to be a letter left in the corner of the bundle.

He opened the letter, which was written in the Prime Minister's own handwriting. The first page read, "Sir, you will certainly be hunted down by the Queen's men. If the road ahead is dangerous and you have no other options, you may choose to escape into the Spirit Beast Forest.

The Spirit Beast Forest is isolated from the outside world all year round. The terrain is steep, with many swamps, miasma, poisonous insects and ferocious beasts. Although it is extremely dangerous, it is still a way to survive in danger.

Young Master is blessed with a long life and will surely be able to shake off the pursuers. If he encounters an opportunity, he will be able to gain great gains in the Spirit Beast Forest..."

When she read this, Shen Jingjuan could no longer bear the feeling of hunger, so she grabbed the roast goose and started to eat it in big mouthfuls. Seeing how she was wolfing down the food, she didn't look like a princess of a royal palace at all.
