Chapter 1502: Blood Drawing (1/2)
The four experts and their tens of thousands of supporters had roots growing from their bodies that then connected to the ground.
“Zzz—” The roots sucked away their blood energy, longevity blood, life force, and grand dao; virtually all of their essences were being drained.
After taking away the group’s vitality, all of these essences were refined through the grand momentum before being pa.s.sed to the Reincarnation Nine-Leaves.
“The medicine of immortality isn’t that old tree?” Many people were stunned to see the essences flow into the small leaves. From the very beginning, they thought that the tree was the real medicine. No one expected that this small gra.s.s with nine leaves was actually the real thing.
The truth was that none of them knew what it was since the news was purposely spread by Zhentian’s group.
“Li Qiye, are you not afraid of being punished by the heavens for your heinous deeds?” Even characters like the prince were frightened as their essences were being sucked dry. After all, few could face death without fear. Moreover, being squeezed dry like this was even more terrifying.
Li Qiye simply smiled in response: “Punishment from the heavens? Killing a few of you won’t do anything. I’ve already killed billions in the past! This is nothing in comparison. Plus, don’t try to be all moralistic before me. Your abyss has committed countless evil acts as well! Not to mention robbing and killing people in G.o.dhalt, burying babies underground is already heinous enough since not all of them made it! I am simply devouring my enemies’ essences while you all are the ones burying your own children. Who is more disgusting here?”
The prince who was shouting earlier had no response.
“I have never feared the villainous heavens.” Li Qiye continued: “Plus, even if this is worthy of punishment, it wouldn’t be descending upon me. The thing taking away your essences is the immortal gra.s.s and the grand momentum. All I did was change the rule.”
No one dared to speak at this moment since the crowd was creeped out by this spectacle.
“The victors are kings while the losers are bandits, there is nothing else to say. But Li Qiye, you used trickery to defeat us, it’s not honorable at all. If you used your real strength to defeat us, we would have nothing to say. In this manner, the Ancestral Terra and the three great races in Heaven Spirit will avenge us!”
“Okay, don’t try to scare me.” Li Qiye was quite amused: “What is this about Heaven Spirit’s powers? Since when have I been afraid? If they want to come, then come! Bring one million and one million will be slaughtered, bring one billion and one billion will be slaughtered! It’s no big deal at all!”
The vice ancestor threatened him out of fear, but Li Qiye didn’t bite the bait.
Many cultivators got chills around their necks after hearing this. His words were like sharp sabers hanging by their necks. Anyone who dared to oppose him would be decapitated instantly.
Li Qiye went on: “And what is this about trickery? When Zhentian lost, all of you were still hiding and didn’t do anything, why? Wasn’t it just to lead me into your trap? Since you were the first ones to resort to scheming, I decided to play along. Plus, think about it, where else am I going to find four people as powerful as you to act as nourishment? Moreover, there are another ten thousand experts here. This is especially true for Zhentian and the prince; they have high cultivations and are also young… this majestic vitality and prosperous spirit that’s full of life — so nutritious. They are much better compared to the old geezers like the vice ancestor and Conch Overlord. Thus, I was more than happy to jump into your trap. As the saying goes, how can you catch the cub without entering the tiger’s lair?”
Having said that, he smiled and gently shook his head: “I’m not trying to belittle all of you, but this scheme or strategy is not worth mentioning. As long as I spend a little effort, all of you were doomed from the start.”
The spectators glanced at each other. Not even in their wildest dreams did they expect for Li Qiye to scheme against the group. This was a real ploy compared to the trap laid by Zhentian.
