The God Of Void
Chapter 52's. Lotus flower

"Xue Ming, what is your true purpose?"

As a cultivator as well as the chairman of an ancient clan, Yun Hao could naturally guess if Xue Ming had any hidden intentions, only that he still did not know of those intentions.

"A-what do you mean, chief?"

Yun Hao raised the corner of his lips, then released a hint of his aura of strength to oppress Xue Ming. And sure enough, that aura had managed to intimidate Xue Ming.

"Tell me the truth or you'll accept the consequences!" yun Hao said.

Xue Ming's body trembled, the oppressive pressure of intimidation making him unable to move in the slightest, even as he was forced to kneel to Yun Hao.

"Well, I-I'll explain everything, but-but..."

"Good, explain it right now!" yun Hao said, then retracted the aura of his strength.

Xue Ming heaved a sigh of relief, he was very grateful that Yun Hao did not directly attack him, otherwise, it was certain that he would die at that very instant.

"Other than you wait? Explain everything now!"

"Ba-good!"

After that, Xue Ming explained that his goal of cooperation was only to get revenge, because he realized that he would not be able to avenge it if he was alone.

But, he did not explain if he did not know the true identity of the masked devil, because if he did that, it was certain that their cooperation would not be established.

In fact, the worst possibility was that he could have been killed by Yun Hao right then and if that happened, his grudge could never be avenged.

"So, you want to use the power of my clan to avenge you?"

"Bu-not like that, chief."

"Then?"

"I just want to help the cloud clan, because after my father died, I have no one else to follow" Xue Ming replied.

"What about the holy pillar sect?" ask Yun Hao.

"The sect of the sacred pillar is unlikely to help me, for this grudge is only between me and the masked demon."

Yun Hao was silent for a moment while thinking about Xue Ming's words, although his words sounded reassuring, yet Yun Hao could not believe a single bit of him.

"This young man is so cunning, maybe I can take advantage of him."

"Alright, I accept you in this clan, but remember, never do anything you shouldn't do!"

"Thank you, chief."

Yun Hao nodded, "go, I'll call you again if there's a task you have to do."

Xue Ming bowed, then left the main residence of the bright sky clan.

Dhuayar!

In the depths of the middle region forest, Yun Fei appeared to be facing off against a powerful spiritual beast, a snake whose strength level was equivalent to that of the Heaven Spirit realm.

The fight between the two of them had been going on for quite some time, the two of them had also injured each other, only, Yun Fei's situation seemed to be even worse than that of the snake.

But it was very natural, because the difference in strength between them was huge, and the only thing that allowed Yun Fei to survive was his speed.

The giant snake did indeed possess incredible strength, its movements were also quite nimble for that size of its huge body, yet its speed was still inferior to Yun Fei.

"The lightning sword dance!"

A slash!

A slash!

With the technique taught by Yun Aotian, Yun Fei managed to land a streak of slashes onto the giant snake's body, but not all of his slashes managed to pierce through the snake's scales.

"Damn! His scales are really hard!"

Wush.

Dhuayar!

Yun Fei jumped up and made a backward salto move in the air, right after his two feet landed on the ground, he then slashed his sword towards the snake.

A considerable amount of sword energy was created from the slash and it managed to hit the giant snake, also managing to incise a considerable wound on its massive body.

However, the wound alone is certainly still not enough to subvert the snake, because the endurance of his body is much greater than his own body size.

The giant snake then moved forward towards Yun Fei, at the same time, it also spouted out its usual liquid, but the attack was again avoided by Yun Fei.

On the other hand, Yun Fei jumped high into the air to widen the distance between him and the snake, then after that, Yun Fei formed a seal with the finger of his left hand.

When the seal was in shape, in the sky appeared dozens of swords created from spiritual energy, then dozens of swords shot down at high speed and rained down on the snake.

Dhuayar!

Dhuayar!

Explosions continued to occur as dozens of swords struck the body of the giant snake. The impact of the attack was also very large, even causing quite a great vibration.

But unfortunately, Yun Fei could not see what happened after that, because his gaze was blocked by the dust that appeared due to the powerful explosion.

"Did it work?"

Yun Fei focused his gaze where the snake was. Not long ago, a lot of liquid could gush towards him and almost hit him.

"Cihh! Apparently you're not dead either!"

After that, Yun Fei stored the sword into his storage ring, then he formed a seal with both hands.

In that instant, in the sky appeared a sizable wisp of energy, then the wisp turned into a sizable sword.

"Death!" yun Fei said.

Wush.

DHUAAR!

The sword that was large enough shot down at high speed and hit the snake's body, even hitting it until it caused a very powerful explosion.

"He's finally dead too" Yun Fei muttered as he heaved a sigh of relief.

He was truly relieved that the snake was dead, if that final attack could not kill him either, perhaps he would have to use his strongest technique once again.

But if he were to use that technique, it was certain that he would be in the same condition a second time, a condition where he was almost exhausted of spiritual energy.

After resting to let go of his fatigue, Yun Fei then walked up to the giant snake's body, then absorbed his spirit power to increase his cultivation level.

For the time being, Yun Fei's cultivation was still at the early stage of the Heaven Spirit realm, in other words, his journey was still very far away to be able to reach the highest peak in the cultivation world.

By absorbing the power of that giant snake spirit, Yun Fei might be able to increase one or two levels of his strength, and if successful, then he would continue on his way.

For a while, Yun Fei still wanted to go down the middle region, because in addition to its vast territory, there were certainly many places he could go to to find resources.

"Xiao Ling, you don't have to practice today, because there's something I want to show you."

"Good, teacher!" said Huo Ling.

Lin Xia nodded, then extended his hand to Huo Ling, "grip my hand, the place we are going to is very far away."

"Where is that, teacher?"

"You'll know when you get there later" Lin Xia replied.

Huo Ling did not ask anything more, then grabbed the hand of her teacher, then after, the two of them darted flying away from the palace of the Asura clan.

Not long after, the two arrived at a very beautiful place, that place was the peak of a very high mountain.

Besides being able to see the vast forest, Huo Ling's eyes were also spoiled by a lake that was quite vast, moreover the lake was filled with numerous lotus flowers.

"This flower..."

"The name is lotus flower" said Lin Xia.

When Lin Xia mentioned the name of the flower, a memory appeared in Huo Ling's mind, a memory closely related to the flower that was in the lake, the lotus flower.
