Chapter 174 - Ambush
Chapter 174 Ambush
Ron calculated the time and felt that a month was not too tight, so he chose to ride a horse instead of flying on a sword.
Although he had to go to the Cultivator State this time, and would have to go through a few boat rides in between, which would take at least five to six days, he could also get to that village on a flying ferry. If the journey was smooth, a total of seven to eight days would be enough. Including the return trip, there would still be more than ten days to find the clansmen. There was really a lot of time.
The day of travel quickly ended. Ron found a place to rest for a while. He fed the horse, ate something, and also had a short rest.
It was already evening, but Ron did not sleep. He continued to ride his horse forward. When it was almost midnight, Ron set up a tent in a nearby grove to rest.
The woods were very quiet. A hint of energy was gathering in the tent, and Ron was cultivating inside. Even when he was out looking for his clansmen, he could not ignore his daily cultivation.
The moonlight was very bright in the sky, and the woods were very quiet. No one disturbed him while he was cultivating in this quiet atmosphere. Ron thought it was very good, but suddenly, the silence was broken.
Suddenly, countless swords appeared in front of Ron’s tent and stabbed directly at Ron.
“Rip!” In an instant, Ron had gathered all his energy, and the tent was torn apart by the energy. The swords did not manage to stab Ron, but they instantly turned into a ball of poisonous fumes that enveloped Ron. Hidden weapons continued to stab at Ron from all around, and all the weapons had gone into the black fog.
Immediately after, all those lying in ambush in the surroundings appeared, and they threw all their weapons at Ron.
All the weapons were entangled together, emitting clanking sounds. As the battle was raging, the few ambushers suddenly discovered something abnormal and quickly took a few steps back.
In an instant, the sound of a sword could be heard from the poisonous fumes. Accompanied by a red light, the sword flew out. It was very fast, like a meteor. The few people lying in ambush did not even see what weapon had killed them before they died.
The sword circled in the air and quickly killed the five ambushers of the Innate Realm, and finally returned to Ron’s hand.
The series of actions just now had obviously been Ron’s show of strength to them. Seeing this, the other ambushers instantly understood that Ron was not easy to deal with. Moreover, the sword in Ron’s hand seemed to be a high-grade magical weapon.
Although the opponent was so powerful, these ambushers were still experienced and had a certain level of professionalism. They could not give up easily, so they changed their battle plan again. After all, Ron was in the light, and they were in the dark. They still had the advantage.
The ambushers quickly formulated a new plan, which was to keep a close eye on Ron and wait for the right opportunity to charge forward and kill him.
After the poisonous fumes had dissipated, everyone found that Ron had disappeared.
“Where is he? What’s going on? What’s going
on?”
“Wasn’t he still in the poisonous fumes just now? Why has he suddenly disappeared?” “Find him! Find him even if you have to dig three feet into the ground today.”
All the ambushers were very surprised. Ron had clearly been in the poisonous fumes just now, so why had he suddenly disappeared? But the sword was still there, as if it had eyes, and it stabbed at one of the ambushers.
The ambusher quickly fled behind the tree, but no matter where he fled, he could not outrun the flying sword’s speed. His throat was still slit by the sword.
Immediately after, the sword did not stop at all. It turned around and stabbed at the next target. The ambushers started to panic and fled in all directions.
However, they were only of the Innate Realm. No matter how well they could hide, they could not escape the eyes of the sword. Instantly, screams could be heard throughout the forest, and one corpse after another fell to the ground.
“Don’t kill me, don’t kill me.”
“My Lord, I was wrong. Please show mercy.”
“Spare me! Spare me!”
Suddenly, an ambusher of the Divine Power Realm looked up and discovered Ron. He shouted, “Up there, he’s up there!”
In the sky, Ron was standing in the air, looking calmly at the people fleeing on the ground.
“How is this possible?” muttered the ambusher of the Divine Power Realm. Then, he saw the sword coming for his neck. Before he could say anything, he had already collapsed to the ground.
As corpses fell to the ground one after another, there was a dead silence in the forest again. The sword had also returned to Ron’s hand after killing everyone.
Despite having killed more than ten people, there was no blood on the sword at all. It was still vibrating in Ron’s hand as if it wanted to fly out and kill someone.
“Your subordinates are all dead, and you can come out now. Don’t stay in the dark if you have guts,” Ron shouted into the forest. After waiting for tens of seconds, there was no response.
Ron smiled and said, “I didn’t expect the dignified head of the Mu Guang Pavilion to be a coward. In the future, this would make the Mu Guang Pavilion……Anyway, I’m already at the peak of the Divine Power Realm.”
As soon as Ron had finished speaking, a powerful energy erupted from his body, causing the entire forest to tremble.
At this moment, Ron looked at the distant mountain range and said with a smile, “I’ve finally found him.” The sword in Ron’s hand flew out in that instant.
At the same time, a figure appeared on the mountain range. It gradually distanced itself from Ron, as if it was about to escape.
This person had wanted to flee directly, but before he could run far, Ron’s sword had already reached his side. With a clang, Ron’s sword was blocked by a shield. This middle-aged man looked to be around 40 years old. He was wearing a purple robe, and from his appearance, he had a hint of elegance. He did not look like someone who cultivated martial arts at all, but the energy he emitted was very sinister and cold. He was at level-4 of the Divine Power Realm.

“How can you be at the peak of the Divine Power Realm? This is impossible!” The middle-aged man in the purple robe looked at Ron in disbelief, and then he suddenly reacted. “You dare to trick me?”
As soon as he had finished speaking, the powerful aura on Ron’s body immediately dissipated, and he could no longer sense the energy of a person at the peak of the Divine Power Realm. “Sorry, I’ve just learned it recently, and I’m not very familiar with using it.” Ron smiled slightly.
