Chapter 224 - 224 Killing a rank 3 Spirit realm cultivator

His body then disappeared from the spot he was standing on, and under Hao Jingguo"s horrified eyes, Shun Long instantly appeared in front of him, behind the wall of the large vines.

Raising the "Purple Blossom staff" in the air, Shun Long swung it down diagonally, aiming towards the middle rank 3 Spirit realm expert"s head!

This was the second move from the "Staff of Obliteration"!

Hao Jingguo quickly understood, that he didn"t have enough time to raise his hands and defend against Shun Long"s staff with his daggers.

He knew that Shun Long"s speed was much faster than his, and the only thing that he could do now was to bet everything on his cultivation.

Hao Jingguo"s qi was quickly gathered around his head, creating many layers of defense and raising the power of his earth armor by many folds.

The destructive power of the staff soon met Hao Jingguo"s full-powered earth armor.

Shun Long felt the "Purple Blossom staff" nearly leaving his hand once it met Hao Jingguo"s earth armor whose defense had been amplified by many times, but gritting his teeth, he continued bringing it downwards, destroying layers after layers of the earth armor in the process.

However, even with the second move of the "Staff of Obliteration", once the last layer of earth armor was destroyed, the destructive power of the purple staff was also worn away, as the "Purple Blossom staff" barely touched Hao Jingguo"s head in the end, like a piece of wood giving him a small push.

And yet, Hao Jingguo didn"t even have enough time to laugh, as Shun Long gritted his teeth and drew the staff backwards, holding it like a spear!

Terror filled the middle-rank 3 Spirit realm expert"s eyes once he saw Shun Long ready to attack him again.

Hao Jingguo quickly raised his daggers in the air to defend against Shun Long"s attack, when the "Purple Blossom staff" suddenly shot forward.

This was the third of the six moves from the "Staff of Obliteration", a single thrust forward!

Shun Long"s right hand extended forward, using the staff like a spear, as it collided against the 2 white daggers.

Without having enough time to infuse his qi inside them, Hao Jingguo"s daggers couldn"t defend against the third move from the "Staff of Obliteration", as they were sent flying from his hands, while the "Purple Blossom staff" continued forward.

The last layer of earth armor that had just been reformed on Hao Jingguo"s head was instantly crushed like a piece of dry wood, as the "Purple Blossom staff" hit the rank 3 Spirit realm expert"s head.

For the first time, Hao Jingguo felt fear, as the "Purple Blossom staff" hit his head, exploding it like a watermelon, as blood spurted through the air.

The headless corpse of the middle rank 3 Spirit realm expert then started falling towards the ground.

Shun Long panted heavily for a few breaths of time as he watched Hao Jingguo"s corpse falling from the sky, while less than 10 percent of his qi was now left in his body.

Then, looking around him, Shun Long saw Hao Jingguo"s subordinates that were stopped in mid-air still under the effects of the "Monarch"s Domain", and waving the "Purple Blossom staff", he took care of them before his body descended on the ground.

Shun Long didn"t choose to spare Hao Jingguo"s subordinates.

After all, as late-stage Heaven grade experts, they weren"t innocent once they chose to follow Hao Jingguo.

From killing fathers, mothers, brothers, and sisters, and killing entire families, to raping and pillaging villages and small cities, they all partic.i.p.ated as they followed Hao Jingguo.

Although Shun Long didn"t consider himself to be a hero, he also had no reason to let these people live anyway, since they were his enemies.

An expert practically at the same level as her father, along with his entire "sect", had lost when fighting against Shun Long.

It wasn"t against Little Black or the black panther, but against Shun Long fighting by himself.

Then... did that mean that Shun Long was also strong enough to take on the entire "Floating cloud sect" by himself as well?

This thought seemed unbelievable to Liu Mei, and yet, it seemed to not be too far off from the truth.

After taking a deep breath to calm herself down, Liu Mei left the forest and walked towards Shun Long who was sitting cross-legged on the ground to recover his qi.

When she arrived in front of Shun Long, Liu Mei lowered her head as she said in a slightly ashamed tone

""Long-ge... It seems that my skeletons were unable to help you...""

Once Liu Mei remembered the scene of her skeletons and her 3 undead knights, all being destroyed in the blink of an eye against Hao Jingguo"s subordinates, she couldn"t help feeling a wave of sadness filling her heart.

After all, even after becoming a necromancer, she couldn"t help Shun Long in his fight.

Shun Long however shook his head in response, and with a smile on his face he stood up, as he gently patted Liu Mei"s head and said

""There is no reason for you to feel sad. After all, it"s impossible for your peak rank 5 Heaven grade skeletons, to fight against 30 late-stage Heaven grade cultivators by themselves.""

Raising her head, Liu Mei"s beautiful eyes stared at Shun Long"s, as she nodded and mumbled

""Mhm!""

Shun Long smiled lightly when he saw the look in her eyes that was filled with determination, before he then summoned the black panther from the "Stone of Time".

After collecting the spatial rings from Hao Jingguo"s and the rest"s dead bodies, Shun Long had gotten more than 600.000 low-grade spirit stones, before he and Liu Mei got on the black panther"s back as they headed back to the "Heaven"s Dome city".

More than 1 month had pa.s.sed since the completion of Hao Jingguo"s mission, as Shun Long and Liu Mei returned back to the Heaven"s Dome city.

However, compared to the past, the "Heaven"s Dome city" today was even more lively, while even more people were gathered around the city gates.
