Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
As the Saint Qi within his body followed methods of the eighth layer of the Emperor Ming Nine-sky Scriptures, Zhang Ruochen could unexpectedly suppress the spread of the poison.
Every time he attained a new layer of the scriptures, his Saint Qi’s quality increased.
Evidently, the eighth layer of the Emperor Ming Nine-sky Scripture had already reached a level where he was immune to poison.
However, the mirage venom was too powerful, that was why it could poison even Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen moved quickly. Secretly he mobilized Divine Fire Jingmie, and started to break down the venom.
Elder Qi was extremely confident in the venom, and believed that no creature under the cultivation of a Supreme Saint could suppress the poison.
Not only that, but Elder Qi had also received detailed information about how Zhang Ruochen’s strength was not weak at all, and that he could manipulate s.p.a.ce and time.
That was why he did not dare to get near to Zhang Ruochen, and instead stood about ten feet out, waiting for the full effect of the poison to take place.
At that time, he didn’t even need to move a finger, and Zhang Ruochen would have already been rendered defenseless by the poison.
“Why? Why… do you want to kill me?”
Zhang Ruochen pretended that the poison was spreading into his body, with the trembling on his hands getting more and more obvious. In reality, he was merely trying to delay for more time.
Elder Qi’s smile turned even more prideful, and he said, “Your targets were too obvious. It was clear that you were targeting the younger generation of Heaven Field. How could I let you off?”
“Are you a member of the G.o.d of Death Palace, or are you a part of Heaven Field?” Zhang Ruochen asked.
“I am both.”
Elder Qi laughed after replying, and continued, “Are the two ident.i.ties mutually exclusive? Haha! Youngster, you are too inexperienced after all. You need to learn to hide yourself. The more you stand out, the faster you will die. The more you hide, the more unexpected your strikes can be.”
Zhang Ruochen groaned, “From what I knew, the G.o.d of Death Palace did not belong to any Field, and was independent. I am a VIP of the G.o.d of Death Palace. If you kill me, do you think the higher-ups will let you off?”
Elder Qi looked at Zhang Ruochen as though he was looking at an idiot, and replied, “This old man has already been here for so long. With my status, I could give any reason and pa.s.s over this incident. For example, you did not want to pay up and wanted to run away. I accidentally killed you. Isn’t that perfectly normal? Don’t you think?”
Gradually, Elder Qi realized that something was off, and he frowned. “It has been so long, the poison should have already spread across your entire body. How can you still speak?”
Whoos.h.!.+
Elder Qi was worried about accidents, and immediately wielded his sword to attack Zhang Ruochen.
As the sword a.s.saulted Zhang Ruochen, it swirled in the air and turned into a ball of Sword Qi.
This old fart is too decisive. I am still breaking down the poison in my body…what to do?
Just as Zhang Ruochen got distracted, the poison in his body started acting up again, and half his body turned numb.
“Darn it! This poison is so difficult to break down. Demonic Sound, block him now!” Zhang Ruochen called out.
From his back, an attractive figure emerged into a gorgeous beauty.
With a blood moon-like Endless Blade, she blocked the a.s.sault.
Clang!
The Sword Qi was smashed apart.
As the sword and Endless Blade clashed together, the silver light and the blood light made a sharp contrast as the two mountain-like presences clashed. Even the s.p.a.ce within the building shook a little.
Demonic Sound stepped back a few steps, and her pretty face smiled. “Old man, seems like your cultivation is pretty high to think of attacking my master.”
Elder Qi had never expected that there would be such an unexpected intruder.
When his eyes looked towards Zhang Ruochen, his face changed again.
He could see that Zhang Ruochen’s limb was slowly recovering.
Could it….
Could it be that he can cleanse the poison?
With his vast experience, Elder Qi quickly calmed down and prepared to battle. From within his body, a thick demonic fog emerged, and his strength seemed to have increased drastically. He looked like a towering demonic overlord, and coldly asked, “Girl, that blade must be w.a.n.g Tian’s Endless Blade, right?”
“Not bad…seems like you are not blind! Haha.”
Demonic Sound was not at all afraid, and strands of her hair turned into vines with lightning wrapped around them. Like snakes, they slithered out and occupied the entire building.
“Even such a powerful youngster like w.a.n.g Tian also got killed by you. Everyone has underestimated you, Zhang Ruochen. Today, this old man will kill you! ”
Holding his sword, Elder Qi drew a circle.
The light from the sword seemed to fill the circle, making it into a glorious full moon.
Whoos.h.!.+
The full moon condensed into a single point, and in a split second, it arrived before Demonic Sound.
Demonic Sound had already activated the perfect Fourth-Yao level power of the Endless Blade, and as she slashed out, the edge of the sword smashed right at the point of light. At that instance, an immense force transmitted to her limbs, and almost caused her to use her blade.
“Such a powerful old man. His cultivation level must be that of a seventh-step Saint King.”
Demonic Sound was preparing to use Rules of Truth to fight against Elder Qi.
