Chapter 50: Stealing hearts, taking soulsTranslated and Editted by: La0o9

Seeing the meal before them gone without a trace, the demons screeched in frenzy and disappointment.

A few breaths later, they still couldn’t find the cultivators.

The ground was trembling.

A demon wrapped in a fiery mist jumped out from the ground, trying to find them, but could only let out a disappointed roar.

As soon as it appeared, the demons from all sides couldn’t help but retreated from it.

This is a terrifying Crimson Flame Demon, who has awakened the Fire-element to the 3rd stage “Magma”, incredibly strong, incredibly hard to handle.

A Foundation Establishment realm cultivator alone couldn’t even think about killing it.

As Leng Tian Xing saw that, a thick layer of cold sweat had already formed on his back.

Luckily he didn’t keep going.

No matter how knowledgeable, how skillful he is, that’s only usable in the cultivation world when handling other people.

This is another world altogether, a destroyed world.

An endless amount of demons roaming around makes him feel like a child in hot water, it’s possible to die with the slightest bit of carelessness.

Leng Tian Xing lightly shook his head as he felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

Wu Jin lifted his head, ignoring his body full of wounds and laughed: “Haha, finally we were able to persevere, hah, we persevered!”

Then his voice stopped.

Wu Jin opened his eyes wide, fell backwards as his body made a loud sound as it hit the ground.

Almost immediately after Wu Jin fell down, Gu Qing Shan stepped forward and sat down next to his body, putting his hand on his heart.

“He’s dead”

Gu Qing Shan coldly reported.

The other two faces changed, as they used their inner sight, they could immediately tell Wu Jin already don’t have a pulse or heart beasts anymore.

Ma Liu sorrowfully yelled towards the sky.

Leng Tian Xing silently looked down, his hand gripped the fan tightly.

Suddenly Gu Qing Shan took out a dagger from the body, stabbed it into Wu Jin’s chest, only succeeded after two or three tries.

“Stop!”

Ma Liu angrily roared as he saw that and raised his fist as he was about to attack Gu Qing Shan.

He has always been a good friend of Wu Jin, because of his sorrow, he was really going to kill Gu Qing Shan.

A fan immediately pushed down his fist.

Ma Liu’s eyes were bloodshot, speaking as if roaring: “Deputy Leng, he dares to treat brother Wu’s body like that, I won’t forgive him! I won’t forgive him!”

Leng Tian Xing looked at Gu Qing Shan’s hands without blinking and spoke with a low voice: “Look carefully first”

Gu Qing Shan stabbed the dagger deep into Wu Jin’s chest, then twisted it as he reached the heart.

The heart wound was cut open as a shriek could be heard.

Gu Qing Shan’s eyes grew serious, slowly pulling the dagger out.

As Ma Liu saw the dagger, he opened his mouth wide.

A black imp only as big as a thumb was pierced on the dagger.

The imp struggled, but no matter how much it tried it couldn’t break itself free.

Its feet and hands were full of sharp claws, as it struck the dagger a metal sound could be heard.

“A Heart Stealer Imps, goes in through the mouth and eats the heart” as Gu Qing Shan finished, he gave the dagger to Ma Liu, saying: “avenge Wu Jin”

Ma Liu’s eyes glowed red, opened his palms and squeezed the dagger.

The black imp was crushed together with the dagger.

“Hahaha, ha ha ha ha ha, so this is the end”

Ma Liu suddenly laughed like he was mad.

Leng Tian Xing’s face changed, grabbed him and said: “A dead person can’t be revived, don’t kill yourself as well!”

Ma Liu pushed him away and screamed: “He died, he already died do you understand? We’re all going to die here”

Gu Qing Shan stood up and seriously said: “We won’t, we still have a chance”

“I’m going to run away first” Ma Liu’s bloodshot eyes stared at Leng Tian Xing, then at Gu Qing Shan as he spoke confused: “I’m going to go first, none of you stop me, who dares to stop me?”

Saying that, a black aura could be seen from his body.

As soon as the black aura appeared, Gu Qing Shan’s face also changed.

As Gu Qing Shan and Leng Tian Xing looked at each other, they could see the nervousness in the other’s eyes.

Gu Qing Shan took a few steps backwards, one hand gripping the formation plate, another at his back, ready to take out the bow at any time.

——–the sword that he took is still in his Inventory Bag, he hasn’t touched it yet.

Leng Tian Xing face was as deep as water, taking step by step backwards, still with his fan in hand.

Both of them stood parallel, the spirit energy inside their Dantian rushed around their body, like a bow that’s pulled but not yet released.

“Kill, kill, kill kill kill, kill all the demons”

Ma Liu was mumbling to himself, a dark light was seen shining on his body.

Suddenly black flowers appeared out of nowhere, numerous beauties were seen inside, showing off their alluring bodies, their captivating eyes staring at Ma Liu.

The black flowers circled around Ma Liu, divided into two and went into Ma Liu’s ears.

Then another went into his mouth.

Finally, the dark light almost seems to solidify and went into his eyes.

The red glow in Ma Liu’s eyes were soon replaced by darkness.

“Kill”

His hoarse voice repeated the same word over and over, slowly stepped outside the formation, swinging his fist to kill the demons outside.

But very quickly, the endless horde of demons surrounded him, turning him into a walking ball of flesh.

The demons bit him one after another, but Ma Liu almost seems unconscious, only kept swinging his fists, killing the demons that approached him in front.

In just a few moments, the demons had already eaten Ma Liu, not leaving even a strand of hair left.

It was only then that the dark light gradually dissipated.

In the empty air, a satisfied moan could be heard.

“Delicious… Soul…”

Gu Qing Shan and Leng Tian Xing silently watched that scene, their bodies were soaked in sweat.

It wasn’t until a while later that they could look at each other again.

“What exactly was that?” Leng Tian Xing muttered.

Different from himself that was always calm and collected, right now he’s feeling fear.

“Tianma, almost invincible existences” Gu Qing Shan sighed and looked around.

“What is a Tianma?” Leng Tian Xing asked.

“A kind of demon that doesn’t have a body, experts in breaking your mind and taking your soul”

Gu Qing Shan doesn’t want to say too much, lest he loses his fighting spirit as well.

Fuck! Fuck! Why are there Tianma here, right now I don’t have any items from Buddhists that I can use to repel them.

If Tianma are around, the situation is at least ten thousand times more dire than before.

Tianma are intangible, they can always see through a cultivator’s cracks in their mind, using that to eat away their souls.

Both Leng Tian Xing and himself have no way to deal with them right now.

Tianma carry a strong sense of territory, so unless they’re forced to, they won’t get out from their territory.

Because of that, the only way to live right now is to quickly get out of here.

As he thought that, Gu Qing Shan quickly asked: “Do you have any more Crimson Crane Qi Holding Pill?”

Leng Tian Xing took out two glowing transparent pills in his hand: “The last two”

Gu Qing Shan didn’t hesitate and said: “Give them both to me”

Leng Tian Xing looked at him.

Gu Qing Shan spoke: “First, you still haven’t used much spirit energy, second, I’ll be the vanguard next”

“You’ll open the way?” Leng Tian Xing asked in surprise.

“Yes, it’s already a do-or-die situation, either we die here, or to cut open a path to live” Gu Qing Shan answered with a low voice.

He could tell, Leng Tian Xing is very strong at spells, but weak at close combat, without a powerful ally to buy time for him to cast his spells, even if Leng Tian Xing is stronger he won’t be able to make it pass this last leg of the journey.

“Fine” Leng Tian Xing was silent for a bit, then said: “If you die, then me having one more Crimson Crane Qi Holding Pill won’t make a difference”

He threw the 2 pills over.

During the fight just now, Leng Tian Xing didn’t really use too much spirit energy, so even if he uses the pill it won’t be as effective as Gu Qing Shan eating the pill.

If Gu Qing Shan can recover his full spirit energy, he can use this formation again, to hide the two of them one more time.

That way they’ll get another chance at a breather.

This is what he thinks.

He doesn’t know that the formation can no longer be used.

Gu Qing Shan received the pill, swallowed one right away and put away the second.

His impression of Leng Tian Xing increased again.

To know the logic is one thing, to be able to just hand out such a valuable pill is another.

In a crisis situation, to be able to trust others that much makes him a suitable comrade.

Since that’s the case, he can be relieved to concentrate on killing demons, to get out of the Tianma’s territory as soon as possible.

Gu Qing Shan already decided and spoke: “The formation can still hold for a bit; you rest up first”

Saying that, he walked to Wu Jin’s body, took off the heavy shoulder pads on Wu Jin and put it on himself.
