158: Chapter 158 The King's Sword Demonstrates Its Power

Wang Bin pushed with all his might, forcing his Divine Sense to penetrate the lingering aftermath of the explosion, searching meticulously, but he couldn't detect any trace of life.

Two muffled thuds sounded, like heavy objects falling to the ground.

Wang Bin quickly used his Divine Sense to check, only to see that Yin Bi's head had disappeared, his Dantian was empty, and his entire body was covered in gruesome wounds.

Moreover, this Yin Bi had actually Cultivated to the Golden Core Middle Stage; he wondered if he had received benefits from the Zhong Sheng Sect.

As for the Eagle Demon's head, there were several finger-thick holes, with blood gushing out, and the holes in his chest were even more numerous, clearly indicating he was dead.

But Wang Bin was still not at ease, so he controlled the Kings Sword to stab the Eagle Demon's head fiercely again, instantly adding several more blood holes to the bird's head.

Only then did he confirm that these two guys were truly dead, and he couldn't help but secretly rejoice, this Kings Sword really didn't disappoint him.

Thinking about it, it was truly a close call; two Golden Core Middle Stage Cultivators and a Yao Beast had teamed up to ambush him, and even in a one-on-one fight, he wouldn't be their match.

He didn't expect that the moment they were in a Divided Soul state, he would seize the opportunity to counter-kill them. The Kings Sword really didn't disappoint him.

However, now was not the time for sentiment. Wang Bin quickly ran over, confiscated their Storage Pouches, and then put both corpses into his Storage Pouch.

Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief. Being able to put the corpses into the Storage Pouch meant they were truly dead, as living things could not be placed in a Storage Pouch.

Then, he began to clean up the scene.

He first carefully collected all the fragments produced by the Lei Sha Pearl explosion, especially the obsidian fragments.

Fortunately, his Divine Sense was strong enough now to penetrate hundreds of meters underground, which made it easier to clean the scene thoroughly.

Later, he even found Yin Bi's Golden Core about a mile away, with a small piece of obsidian embedded in it.

Wang Bin hesitated for a moment but still put it into his Storage Pouch.

Looking at the messy battle traces around him, Wang Bin activated the Spirit Wood Heart Sutra, and the surrounding trees and weeds quickly grew under the effect of the Cultivation Technique.

This Wood Attribute Cultivation Technique was indeed convenient at times like this, helping to conceal many things.

Finally, he carefully checked the battlefield again, repeatedly probing the surroundings with his Divine Sense to ensure nothing was missed, before changing direction and flying towards the Demon Beast Mountain Range.

Yin Bi's previous sneak attack had broken his Flying Cloud Shuttle in two, so for now, he could only use that Spiritual Artifact Flying Sword for sword flight.

To be safe, he also put on his Snow Fox Cape, trying to hide his aura as much as possible.

Alas, this time, it truly left a hidden danger.

This was his first time killing a Cultivator, and it was even in self-defense, yet who would have thought Liu Xue would see it?

What was worse, this Liu Xue not only didn't die but also joined the Zhong Sheng Sect. How could it be such a coincidence?

Could it be true, as the saying goes, "If you want no one to know, don't do it"?

However, this time he had checked carefully, and no one else should have seen it.

He also didn't know if Yin Tianqi knew about Yin Bi's collusion with the Zhong Sheng Sect.

Thinking of all this, Wang Bin felt a headache.

He also knew that he couldn't go to West Sea City to report them. Not only would there be no benefit, but it might also attract suspicion from others.

After all, he had no evidence, and once he reported it, his Kings Sword would also be exposed.

Under the cover of night, Wang Bin, wearing his Snow Fox Cape, quietly sneaked towards the Demon Beast Mountain Range.

After flying over a hundred miles, he found a large tree, then dug a dozens of meters deep hole under the tree, put all the spoils of war he had obtained today into a Storage Pouch, buried it in the hole, and then flattened the ground, using Wood Spiritual Qi to promote the growth of surrounding weeds, making the environment blend together.

He looked around and thought, it's better to bury the items here first and see how things develop.

After all, Yin Bi was just an outer Elder, perhaps not highly valued, so the intensity of the investigation should not be too great.

After doing all this, Wang Bin still felt a dull ache in his back; the injuries he sustained this time were indeed not light.

However, the Demon Beast Mountain Range was too dangerous; it was more important to return to White Cloud City first.

Wang Bin put on his Snow Fox Cape again and rushed towards White Cloud City under the cover of night.

As he was about to leave the Demon Beast Mountain Range, Wang Bin discovered White Cloud City's outpost.

There were two Qi Refining Late Stage Cultivators in the outpost. They were hidden dozens of meters underground in a basement, where a concealment Formation was also set up. The two of them took turns vigilantly observing the movements in the Demon Beast Mountain Range.

If he hadn't learned the Earth Magnetism Spirit Refining Art and wasn't a Golden Core cultivator with strong Divine Sense, he might not have discovered them.

Wang Bin secretly praised, thinking that this outpost arrangement was indeed good, and he would definitely reward them well after returning.

Wang Bin quietly infiltrated White Cloud City, directly entering the Formation without being detected by anyone.

However, Du Xiaoyue was an exception, because she controlled White Cloud City's city-protecting grand Formation, and the grand Formation sensed the subtle changes in the Formation.

Wang Bin immediately sent her a voice transmission, which prevented others from being alarmed.

At this time, the four Foundation Establishment Cultivation rooms in the City Lord's Mansion were all empty. Wang Bin casually chose one and walked in. As soon as he entered, Du Xiaoyue followed him in.

"Husband, what's wrong? Why did you sneak back at night?"

Du Xiaoyue asked with a worried expression.

"It's nothing, just a minor injury. Don't tell anyone. I'll heal first, and we can talk about anything else after I come out."

Wang Bin said.

Du Xiaoyue looked at Wang Bin with a worried expression, opened her mouth as if to say something, but ultimately held back and walked out with a heavy heart.

Only then did Wang Bin begin to circulate the Spirit Wood Heart Sutra to heal his injuries.

But as soon as he circulated it halfway, he discovered that the Spiritual Qi in the Foundation Establishment Cultivation room had been completely absorbed by him, and the little Spiritual Qi emitted by the Second-Grade Spirit Vein was simply not enough for him to absorb.

Fortunately, he had Spirit Liquid. He quickly took ten drops of Spirit Liquid and continued to circulate the Cultivation Technique.

After two cycles, he felt that he was mostly fine.

Although the Spirit Wood Heart Sutra did not perform exceptionally well in combat, it was first-rate for healing.

No wonder it was one of the core Cultivation Techniques of the Tian Yuan Sect back then.

The entire healing process took less than a day. Wang Bin used his Divine Sense to scan the entire City Lord's Mansion, and after confirming that everything was normal, he sent a voice transmission to Du Xiaoyue, who was staring blankly in the courtyard:

"Xiaoyue, come to the Cultivation room!"

Upon hearing Wang Bin's voice transmission, Du Xiaoyue immediately stood up and arrived at the Foundation Establishment Cultivation room within a few breaths. As soon as she entered, she asked anxiously:

"Husband, are you alright? You scared me when you came back last night!"

"I'm fine! Your husband just Broke through to Golden Core and was eager to return home. My direction was a bit off when flying, and I accidentally ran into the Demon Beast Mountain Range. There, I encountered a Golden Core Demon Kings.

We fought a confused battle, both of us sustained minor injuries, and then we parted ways. You must not tell anyone about this, lest they worry and it affects my Divine Might!"

Wang Bin repeated the excuse he had already prepared to Du Xiaoyue.

In his previous life, he had heard people say that a secret is a secret precisely because the fewer people who know it, the better; the more people who know, the more danger there is.

He had killed a Golden Core cultivator from the Yin Family, and this person also held the identity of an outer Elder of the Four Seas Commerce League.

As for the reason and process, they were no longer important. If they found out, they would definitely come to trouble him.

Therefore, the best way was not to tell anyone. Even if he was suspected, he would deny it to the death.

Upon hearing Wang Bin say this, the worry on Du Xiaoyue's face immediately disappeared, replaced by an excited smile:

"Haha, my husband is a Golden Core cultivator! And I'm now at Foundation Establishment Second Layer too!

Our Wang Family can now be considered a Golden Core Family. Husband, when are we holding the Golden Core Grand Ceremony?

I heard we can receive many gifts and greatly enhance our reputation."
