Qin Hao climbed up onto a tree that was in the halfway up the slope and observed the situation below through the dense foliage. Due to the advantage of this height, he had a good view of the scene below.
He saw that the valley was surrounded by a crowd of people below, and he could roughly estimate that there were at least 50. It was not a big deal if they were all ordinary people, but they were all Martial Cultivators. With so many cultivators, it could be called a grand gathering of the Martial Cultivators.
Of course, Qin Hao had never seen a real Martial Cultivator Grand gathering before. If it was a real gathering, there should be so much more people.
In the valley, tens of people were fighting against the monster. A few corpses were lying on the ground. The beast was also riddled with wounds, and judged by its rough skin, they were probably just superficial wounds. Otherwise, it would be impossible for it to continue its violent nature, showing no signs of being at a disadvantage in the face of so many people.
Qin Hao was curious, there were so many people outside, why didn't they go and help? Moreover, with his Spirit Sense, he discovered that there seemed to be several martial cultivators of Perfection Stages outside.
If these experts had fought up together, the monster might not have been as easy as it was now.
Qin Hao took a glimpse of the group of people outside out of curiosity, then turned his attention to the fierce battle in the valley. This time, he observed more carefully, and found a person he seemed to have seen somewhere else before — — Taoist Ping Yang?
The moment he saw Taoist Ping Yang, Qin Hao trembled in his heart, finally he remembered who he was. It was the old Taoist who had snatched his Seven Evil Machete when he was still in Ghost Valley of Beiwei City.
At this moment, he was sure that this group of people were here for him, all for the sake of stealing his so-called cultivation resources and Earth Spirit Pearl. It was not expected that an accident would happen, this monster's sudden appearance arose their greed, causing them to give up on chasing after him temporarily. Since that was the case, this gave Qin Hao a chance. He had to kill all of them. Otherwise, this island would be his own grave.
Qin Hao initially did not want to kill so many people, but if he did not, he could only be killed by others. At the same time, if he killed all these people, he would give the people who were after him a warning: Whoever dares to provoke me, Qin Hao, he is not far from death!
However, killing so many people was not easy.
In the valley, the monster seemed to have sensed something different, it suddenly burst out with power, overturning a human, raising its four hooves, and it roared towards Qin Hao.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Taoist Ping Yang threw a flying kick at the neck of the beast. The beast let out a painful "Ao" sound and tumbled over several times.
The people watching outside were all worried about the situation. They were not sorry for the beast. They were worried that the creature was subdued so quickly and did not cause any damage to the other side in this fight. Then it would be a waste of time and for them to stay there as onlookers, and they would rather look for Qin Hao.
Fortunately, the beast had flipped up quickly. It was not defeated. It looked like it was enraged and roared angrily. Its four hooves flew out, and it crashed into Ping Yang ferociously. It was as fast as an arrow that had left the bow, which shocked all the people around it.
Those Shang Qing Taoist Temple disciples wanted to take advantage of the monster's tumble to rush forward. But when they were in the halfway, they were pummeled by the monsters before they could understand what was going on. Miserable screams filled the air as fresh blood flew everywhere. Broken limbs flew all over the place.
When Ping Yang saw such a ferocious beast, his face changed. He didn't dare to be in the monster's way, so he hurriedly jumped up to avoid the beast's attack. The horsetail whisk in his hand carried a hurricane and fiercely swept towards the beast's back, on which immediately some dense scratches could be seen. However, this monster's skin was a bit too rough, and it didn't even have a single trace of blood on his body.
Seeing that the monster was getting stronger, the onlookers heaved a long sigh in relief. At the same time, they were reveling in their hearts. This time, a few more disciples of Shang Qing Taoist Temple died. Hehe, the more, the better.
This time, the Shang Qing Taoist Temple was the strongest among them all, which also meant that the Shang Qing Taoist Temple had priority when splitting the loot. That's all because of their stronger power. Now that the disciples of the Shang Qing Taoist Temple died one by one, to some extent their strength would be weakened. This was something the other five sects were happy to see.
While they were rejoicing, they didn't notice that a ghost-like person was already in their group.
Qin Hao sneaked over from the back and killed a few sect disciples guarding outside the cave. No one noticed that while all of their attention was on the valley. He then put on their clothes. He put black mud on his face and sneaked into their group.
"Bro, I'm sorry. My foot stepped on empty space. I'm really sorry." Qin Hao came down from above and pretended to fall deliberately, his hand grabbing onto the shoulder of one of the disciples below as he said with apologies. When he grabbed the shoulder of this disciple, a weak trace of Yin Energy had already been injected into the man's body.
"Brother, be careful." The disciple who was observing the battle was not bothered by Qin Hao's actions at all. Hearing Qin Hao's sincere apology, he let it go. After giving Qin Hao a kind reminder, he turned his attention back to the battle in the valley.
"Hehe, brother, I'm sorry, please let me pass. Thank you, thank you!" Qin Hao patted the hand of a disciple gently and said politely.
"Hey, brother, do you think that monster could defeat them?"
"Hey, brother, there is a fly on your back, I'll help you to get rid of it."
"Hey, brother, there is an ant on your leg. I'll help you to get rid of it."
"What the hell is wrong with you?" Finally, someone couldn't hold back their anger anymore. This guy used all sorts of reasons to pat them one and another all the way here. Was he crazy?
"Ah, my shoulder." The first man Qin Hao touched finally realized that something was wrong. He stared at his corroded shoulder and screamed in fear.
The scream was too loud and ear-piercing. The other people were all alarmed, and all looked towards the disciple at the same time. Seeing the miserable state of the disciple on his shoulder, all of their faces revealed shock and puzzlement.
What was going on? How could his shoulder rot without any reason?
Before the crowd could understand what was going on, another person screamed. This was the second one, then it came to the third, the fourth …
The ones that were tricked did not know what was going on, they were all terrified. Their screams were exceptionally ear-piercing, causing those that were not tricked into feeling fear in their hearts. They started to think it might be some ghosts or devils.
"Plop, plop …" Amid the screams, some people started falling down and rolling on the ground, howling miserably. The pain of having their bones and flesh corroded was indescribable. It was a pain worse than death. Some people could not take it any longer and would simply pull out their swords and plunge it into their stomachs, ending their own lives.
They killed themselves, but it was not over. The dead bodies were still drying and being corroded.
"What is going on?" Bai Song rushed out and shouted angrily. He found that some of his disciples in Mount Kun Sect were also hit, and it was their sect which was hurt most.
"It's him. It must be him." The person who was bellowing at Qin Hao for he touched his leg suddenly came to his senses, pointed at Qin Hao and shouted. He also realized that there was something wrong. Looking at the miserable state of the dead, he was angry and afraid. With a pale face, he stared at Qin Hao and screamed, "It's him! Catch him!"
