Chapter 1046: 1046
The Lesser Ultimate Sword shattered, leaving only Mi Ren, Zheng Ze and a young Taoist monk .
Mi Ren’s expression dulled . “Junior Brother Zheng, Junior Brother Meng, Ultimate Sword!” he said calmly while gently swaying his longsword . The blade of the sword became bright and warm as if it had turned into a glimpse of clear autumn water .
Similarly, Zheng Ze and Meng Yu swung their longswords . The blades of their longswords also underwent a strange transformation . It looked like they were wielding a stretch of crystalline spring water .
The sword became dazzlingly quick . With one gentle stroke, it struck the two elders who flew towards them .
“Hey!” The two elders screamed as they staggered backward .
They looked down and saw the cut on their white, jade-like palms . There was a trail of blood on their right palm where fresh blood was seeping out .
“Very well!” The two elders did not retaliate . Their eyes glistened with a menacing red . “The Ultimate Sword! We’ll see how many more of that you can muster!” the elders sneered .
Mi Ren and his two compatriots stood in a peculiar stance . They maintained the sword array, which was capable of gathering three people’s power into a single body . The sword shone with a clear luster and rested in their grips as if it had no weight . The three of them looked composed . They fixed their gaze on the two elders and remained motionless .
There was a grim look on Zheng Shoufang’s face . He hardly dared to breathe while staring at his enemies .
Zheng Yuwan held her breath too, for fear of drawing the attention of the two elders .
She shifted her gaze towards Chu Li, who was as motionless as a dummy . He looked like he was stunned .
Little did they know, earth-shattering changes were occurring inside Chu Li’s body . A mighty force was colliding within his body, cleansing all his internal organs, muscles, and bones . The ever-present force was altering every single inch of his body, making him stronger than ever before .
“Phew…” Zheng Yuwan could not hold her breath any longer and let out a long exhale . The two elders turned to look at her and that scared her into having hiccups . She was too afraid to move . Yet, the more she tried not to move, the more she felt the urge to hiccup .
The two elders had spooky red eyes — eyes that looked like they were filled with endless killing intent . Zheng Yuwan was so terrified that her whole body froze . At that moment in time, she would much rather that she was knocked out cold .
The two elders passed over her and landed on top of Chu Li .
Chu Li stood rooted to the ground . Seeing the jade flute in Chu Li’s hands, past resentment and newfound hatred jumbled together and overwhelmed the elders’ emotions . They took another look at the sword array laid out by Mi Ren’s trio . Knowing the Ultimate Sword’s power, they decided to tread cautiously and confront Chu Li first .
Chu Li looked out of character . Moreover, he looked extremely vulnerable now that he was without the sword array’s protection . The elders could easily destroy him with a single strike, so why not?
The two dashed towards Chu Li in two flashes of red .
“Careful, brother Du!” Zheng Ze shouted alarmingly .
Chu Li remained motionless .
“Boom!” Chu Li’s figure was flung into the air . He was hit hard .
Zheng Ze gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could have done . Even if he had used the Ultimate Sword, his body movement technique would not have made it in time .
Zheng Yuwan screamed . It seemed that she saw Chu Li get turned into a skeleton in front of her very eyes . Read more chapter on NovelFull
She felt nothing other than terror when all those Ultimate Temple disciples were turned into skeletons . Though Zheng Yuwan was not close to Chu Li, she still considered him a benefactor . The sight of Chu Li getting turned into a skeleton was too much for her to bear .
A smirk etched out across the hollow cheekbones of the two black-robed elders . It seemed that they too had seen Chu Li’s now-skeletal body .

To everyone’s surprise, Chu Li landed on the ground firmly . He frowned at the elders .
The mighty power inside his body had absorbed the palm energies, consuming them like the Heavenly Demonic Orb . However, the palm energies were still present inside Chu Li’s body and showed no signs of stopping . Thus, he was still unable to use his martial arts and harness his inner energy .
“Die -!” The burly elder dashed towards Chu Li and struck another palm at his chest .
Chu Li was sent flying into the air once again .
“Ah!” Zheng Yuwan did not even have the time to celebrate before she found herself screaming again .
Mi Ren’s trio moved towards the two elders, swinging their swords at lightning speed .
However, the two elders chose not to duel them . Once again, they dashed skywards to catch up with Chu Li, simultaneously throwing two palm strikes at him .
Chu Li flew into a tree, yet it was incapable of stopping him . “Boom,” the tree was disintegrated into powder .
In a single effort, Chu Li was propelled over about twenty meters then landed steadily on his feet .
“Little devil!” The two elders looked at each other in shock .
The two’s Blood Jade Palm was already fully cultivated . Under normal circumstances, one palm strike would instantaneously gobble up the essence of blood, turning the opponent’s powers into their own, while at the same time reducing them into skeletons . It was the Church of the Divine Blood’s most devastating move .
The two elders’ Bloody Garment Divine Power had attained maximum potential too . Whoever came into contact with that faint blood-like luminescence surrounding their whole body would have their essence of blood dissipated .

As for the Blood Jade Palm which Chu Li endured, it was a solid, fully exerted, full-on version of it .
Let alone a person, a horse’s essence of blood would be instantly exhausted and it would be turned into a skeleton with that one hit .
Hence, it was outrageous that despite enduring so many palm strikes, Chu Li still looked untouched .
The two elders refused to concede . They darted towards him once again .
“Boom, boom, boom…” Chu Li was beaten up and tossed around by the two like a beach ball without stopping for even for a moment . His body kept flailing around in the air, never once landing onto the ground . Yet, Chu Li appeared to look more spirited, his gaze growing brighter and brighter . It looked as if he was enjoying every bit of it .
As they threw more palm strikes at him, the force that was absorbed into his body grew and his power grew even stronger than before .
The two elders’ blows seemed to be helping to refine him .
Chu Li had been trying to gain control of this mighty force, but he just could not get the better of it . The force was like a mountain torrent, violent and unstoppable . It was uncontrollable, gushing forward with immeasurable strength .
Suddenly, his facial expression changed . The mighty power had come to a sudden halt . All of a sudden, it surged to the top of his heart, rapidly condensing into a red bean . It looked no different from a real red bean, exuding a bright bloody illumination .
“Boom, boom, boom, boom!” The two elders slammed Chu Li’s precordium madly . Meanwhile, the strikes targeted toward his head were all dodged by him .
At his precordium, a red-bean-like Heavenly Demonic Orb suddenly appeared, engulfing the two elders’ palm energies . However, there was no feeling of fullness . It was as if the Blood Jade Palm power was so weak that it was negligible .
Suddenly, the red bean fell onto his precordium . In an instant, infinite power condensed within his body . A sound like a river flowing started to be heard . It was the sound of blood flow .

Chu Li was in mid-air when a knife flash swooped from his waist .
“Slash!” The burly elder’s head flew up in the air, a perplexed expression on his face .
The red luminescence around his body seemed so vulnerable . The longsword broke it effortlessly, slashing through his neck without any hindrance at all .
“Ah-!” The thin elder yelled furiously . With one ghastly palm, he struck Chu Li’s Dantian .
“Slash!” A light flashed across his neck, sending another head into the air .
The bloody luminescence rose skywards . Zheng Ze’s trio watched in bewilderment . Zheng Shoufang and Zheng Yuwan were baffled as well .
Prior to this, Chu Li was merely a defenseless puppet . Now, he managed to annihilate two people almost instantaneously . This situation had turned around too quickly .
Chu Li immediately picked up the Heavenly Demonic Orb and tapped on the two elders’ precordium . The Heavenly Demonic Orb swallowed the elders’ blood cores . Suddenly, a sense of fullness was felt again . Nevertheless, there was no feeling of advancing to another level . It was still quite some distance to the next level .
However, these two blood cores were extremely powerful . They were superior to the ten blood cores that had been previously engulfed as these two elders had terrifying cultivation levels . The fact that they were slain by him could only be attributed to their sloppiness . However strong a person’s cultivation level was, they could still be killed if they were careless . This would serve very well as a warning .
Chu Li’s face was now as pale as paper . The consequence of using several different secret skills at once was now beginning to show . Although there was a feeling of fullness in the Heavenly Demonic Orb, Chu Li felt extremely weak all over his body .
