Chapter 299 - Xiqong Wu! (1/2)
BOOMM!! BOOMM!!
”Hmm? The boy... seems to be much stronger than before?” Xiqong Wu furrowed his brows as he cast out his Heavenly Sense.
Wengg!!
Heavenly Sense was an upgraded version of the Soul Sense that one could unlock once they stepped into the immortal realm. Not only that it was a much more superior sensing ability in terms of scanning range, it could easily peer through anything at an even greater clarity!
Through the Heavenly Sense, Xiqong Wu's expression became even more puzzled as he continued to watch the fight between his slave and Duan Li!
”This is the second time that I checked, and he is really severely injured... How can he still fight like that?”
He had confirmed it for the second time now that Duan Li's body internal state was in such an erratic state that the latter couldn't possibly fight in that condition, not to mention even surpassing the battle prowess from what he had witnessed back then!
While it was true that the other party was now in the Pinnacle stage of the Core Formation realm, his internal body was at least two-thirds injured!
Could this be the work of that miracle stone?
It has to be!
At the thought of this, Xiqong Wu grew even more determined to snatch the mysterious pearl away from Duan Li by hook or crook!
”That mysterious stone contained an unimaginable power.. if I could obtain it, my cultivation realm would surely increase by leaps and bounds!”
Even becoming a celestial would no longer be a dream by then, and I could say goodbye to those darned colleagues of mine that has no ambition to pursue a higher quality of life!
Hmph!
High up in the sky, Cao Tengfei was engulfed in black flames around his body. This was his aura that was mixed with Demiruke's blood and negative energy to become the infamous Demiruke's virus!
A single drop from this virus would be enough to transmogrify most living things to become monsters!
However, Duan Li that casually blocked his attacks that was imbued with this virus didn't seem to be affected at all!
”How are you not affected by the virus at all?” he asked with a wrathful tone, incredibly frustrated with the way things were going right now.
Previously, he was only able to shoot out some tendrils of black flame from his fingers one at a time due to the tremendous spiritual Qi it needed.
However, after ascending and becoming an immortal, he had an ocean's worth of spiritual Qi within him right now, and he was able to use the Demiruke's virus to merge with his aura, becoming an aura of death!
Combined with his immense hatred towards Duan Li, which fueled the negative energy needed for the virus to become more potent, by logic, he should have been able to turn the other party into a monster that will submit to him!
But not only did the other party was not fazed by the virus at all, his punches and kicks was easily deflected and countered!
What the hell is this?
Am I not an immortal?
I'm a thousand times more stronger than I was before, yet things still remained the same like last time!
”Because I am the virus's grandfather, that's why!” Duan Li replied with a chuckle.
”ARGH! DIE! DIEE!! WHY WON'T YOU DIE?!” Cao Tengfei screamed out like a mad man. He was utterly scared that his master would grow impatient!
These mixed emotions of fear, frustrations, indignation and anger at the same time amalgamated together until he could no longer take it and finally reached his breaking point!
Kacha!
Something snapped inside of him as he roared out!
”ARGHHHHHHH!!!!”
With a loud bellow to the sky, his entire skin turned black and his eyes redshot. Surges of black flames rained down from his body down to the ground like a torrential rainfall!
”Oh no!” Duan Li's expression turned ugly as he immediately reacted and waved his hand.
Wengg!
”Levy, go and and protect the people on the ground from those black flames! Hurry!” he instructed as soon as Queen Levy was brought out from his spatial ring.
Hearing this, as well as looking at Duan Li's serious countenance, Queen Levy quickly moved in with a speed that was impossible to follow with one's eyes!
Suuu!!
Standing in front of the people that were still flattened to the ground by Xiqong Wu's presence, she raised one palm to the sky before a blue barrier extended out from it and encapsulated everyone inside!
Peng! Peng! Peng!
This barrier deflected the incoming rain of black flames that was heavy like iron bars effortlessly.
