234 Meeting Fellow Townsmen (2)
Jiang Ming’s eyelids twitched, and he exerted the power of his martial arts skills with all his strength. His blood Qi rippled on the surface of his body, and he ran forward without looking back.
In the cave, Li Qianya and the others were willing to give up the ten-thousand-year-old rock spirit blood to fight for the black sword. Jiang Ming did not need to ask to know how precious this thing was.
However, he also knew that this thing was probably not something that just anyone could play with. It was so strange that it was somewhat terrifying. He did not know how long it had been dormant. However, as soon as it woke up, it could kill several genius disciples of the top forces in the Feather Kingdom.
“Didn’t that Foundation Establishment Realm expert descend here? How did he let the black sword escape?”
Jiang Ming was shocked. Was the black sword that powerful?
With this in mind, Jiang Ming used the Meridian Breaker, which he had not used for a long time. The blood Qi in his veins exploded, and his speed increased again.
However, as soon as he burst out with blood Qi, the black sword behind him seemed to be even more excited. With a whoosh, it sped up and was quickly approaching Jiang Ming.
“Why are you chasing me? I didn’t hit you!”
Jiang Ming turned his head and was shocked and speechless. He found that his full speed was not as fast as the black sword.
“It’s indeed something that belonged to a martial arts master,” Jiang Ming thought to himself. However, the more he thought about it, the more he did not want to touch this thing. He continued to cover his head and run. The blood Qi in his body was already surging and brewing. When this damn thing caught up, he would give it a hard punch.
However, the next moment, something that scared Jiang Ming even more happened.
The black sword quivered in the air. It sensed Jiang Ming’s anger, and at this moment, it rippled again. At the same time, a voice entered Jiang Ming’s ears, “Fellow cultivator, please hold on. You and I are not enemies!”
“What? Who’s speaking?” Jiang Ming felt a chill run down his spine.
He turned a deaf ear and continued to run.
In the dark ruins, a man and a sword flew back and forth, and the distance between them was also getting closer and closer.
“Fellow cultivator, I’m really a good person! Fellow cultivator, let’s find a place to sit down and talk. My fellow cultivator, I really don’t have any ill intentions. I just sensed a familiar aura on you! Fellow cultivator…!”
Jiang Ming was gloomy, and he felt a pain in his head. Did this black sword go crazy because it had been alone for all these centuries?
“A familiar aura? Could it be that the psychopath sensed me activating the black stone slab?” Jiang Ming thought to himself. “This black sword and the black stone slab come from the same source. Maybe there is really some connection between them.”
However, Jiang Ming knew nothing about the black sword. Therefore, he naturally could not stop running.
At this moment, in the distance behind him, another figure suddenly charged out of the foggy passage.
It was a burly young man. After a brief observation, he discovered the residual blood Qi in front of him. The blood Qi on the surface of his body rippled, and he rushed forward like a cannonball.
“Let’s see where you can escape. This place restricts spiritual energy.”
A sneer hung on Lu Qianshang’s face. This was his home ground. Even a Golden Core Realm cultivator would suffer here.

“It seems like we’re approaching the core,” Jiang Ming muttered in the depths of the ruins.
In front of him, there were fewer and fewer ruined buildings, and what replaced them was a vast expanse of scorched earth. There were cracks everywhere. It was as if a great disaster had swept through the land.
The further ahead he went, the more concentrated and thicker the cracks became. From afar, some of them even looked like ravines leading into an abyss.
“It looks like some terrifying disaster swept through this land!”
At this moment, Jiang Ming’s heart skipped a beat as he suddenly sensed danger.
He turned his head and saw a small black dot flying through the ruins in the distance, approaching him.
As for the black sword, it had already disappeared without a trace.
“It seems like it’s not completely crazy.” Jiang Ming was speechless. “It should be that Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator. He’s caught up.”
Then, Jiang Ming looked at the figure that was coming from behind, and his eyes moved slightly. “This person is probably a martial artist as well. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to get out of the foggy passage. However, based on this speed, it seems that it’s not as fast as my Meridian Breaker. He’s probably like me, a person cultivating both paths.”
Jiang Ming was not too surprised. He had been trying to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm of martial arts before he reached the Qi Refinement Realm, which was why it was so difficult.
However, if he went back in time and tried again with his current knowledge, it would have been much easier for him.
“As expected of the Cangming Grotto-Heaven. Their disciples can always take the easiest path to greatness.”
Jiang Ming did not have anything to be envious of. Although it was not easy to get to where he was, he had become much more powerful than anyone else at his level.
