Chapter 1731 - : Elder Qi (2/2)
Yet, before she could do that, that point of light that was clas.h.i.+ng with her blade suddenly changed direction and flew towards Zhang Ruochen.
That point of light was in fact the tip of the sword.
“The speed is so fast?”
Demonic Sound knew that the opponent was an a.s.sa.s.sin, thus speed would naturally be their strength. By now it was too late to block the attack, so she started to use the dense forest of vines to attack Elder Qi to prevent him from following up on the attack.
“Carnivorous Holy Flower, you are indeed quite an opponent. However, with only the cultivation of a Fifth Step Saint King, you can’t stop me.”
Elder Qi slashed aside the vines, and dashed out, striking at Zhang Ruochen.
As the tip of the sword drew closer to Zhang Ruochen’s head, Elder Qi’s smile spread, and he declared, “Now, all your bounty money belongs to me!”
Bong!
A black skeleton hand stretched out and slapped Elder Qi away.
“This is….?”
As Elder Qi was being bounced away, his eyes stared at the skeleton.
He could only see that a humongous black skeleton stood beside Zhang Ruochen. The aura coming from it was not any weaker than himself.
That was an undead spirit with the cultivation of a Seventh Step Saint King?
That must be the Emperor Yi Bone Staff. But how did it become so powerful?
Elder Qi was full of questions, but he did not have any time to think about it as Demonic Sound gathered her Rules of Truth. With an attack that was amplified three times by the Rules of Truth, she attacked him.
Quickly, Elder Qi gathered all of his Saint Qi. Using the Sword Qi, he created a mirror.
Boom!
Elder Qi smashed onto the ground, and even the Xuan Ice Saint Jade bed was shattered into a million pieces.
Kneeling, Elder Qi’s white hair was all over the place. His eyes were bloodshot as he laughed, “You are amazing! Even after being poisoned, you are so difficult to deal with. No wonder even after Young Mister Ziyan tried so many times, you are still alive. Luckily, you are trapped within this tower, else you would have escaped again.”
Demonic Sound played with the Endless Blade as she twisted her s.e.xy waist. She walked up to the black skeleton, and charmingly smiled. “With me and Emperor Yi, it won’t be easy for you to deal with Master.”
Elder Qi sneered, and his two hands raised up, injecting demonic Qi into the building.
Whoos.h.!.+
From every inch of the structure, deadly formations lit up, and large amounts of the attacks were launched towards Zhang Ruochen and his allies.
Those attacking Zhang Ruochen were all blocked by Demonic Sound.
The a.s.sault grew stronger, and the vines being controlled by Demonic Sound were being crushed. She could only pa.s.sively defend.
The Emperor Yi Bone Staff took the initiative to go on the offensive. However, the sixteen lamps formed into a Formation, and suppressed the Emperor Yi Bone Staff.
Rumble!
Thunder and lightning started forming within the tower, and the fighting seemed to reach the most deciding moment.
Yet on the outside, all was calm and peaceful. No one knew that Zhang Ruochen was in danger, and they were merely calmly waiting.
Elder Qi walked over, and said, “Making this tower cost me almost all my savings. The formations within would be enough to fight against Eighth Step Saint Kings, and could trap even Ninth Step Saint Kings for a good half an hour. Here, you could only wait to be killed by me.”
On the sword, the Sword Qi lit up again, and an aura no weaker than Fourth-Yao was emitted.
The blinding sword turned the s.p.a.ce into a silvery world.
Demonic Sound was worried, and wanted to fight Elder Qi with all her might. However, the attacks from the tower suppressed her. Just as she stepped out, a thread of light cut through her body.
“Urgh….”
Demonic Sound quickly retreated. From under her feet, a patch of Divine Fire Jingmie appeared and gushed towards Elder Qi.
However, before even getting near to Elder Qi, the flames were put out by the energy oozing out from the formation. In return, a freezing wave headed straight at Zhang Ruochen and Demonic Sound.
“That’s the end of playtime. Let us end this!”
On Elder Qi’s sword, 5 streaks of Saintly Light appeared. With the strength of fifth-yao, he swung his sword.
The sharp sword Qi was like a waterfall, as it streaked across the building. The entire s.p.a.ce seemed to be stirred by the attack.
Demonic Sound and Zhang Ruochen were about to be killed by Elder Qi.
Yet, Zhang Ruochen, who was sitting on the ground, opened a silver-colored book. Suddenly, the s.p.a.ce in the building was being split into multiple dimensions.
At the same time, s.p.a.ce was being twisted, and its direction reversed.
The cascade of Sword Qi suddenly changed directions and flew towards Elder Qi.
Goos.h.!.+
How could Elder Qi have expected such a change? His reaction was slowed, and the sword Qi attacked his waist, cutting him in two.
Crimson blood spurted out, along with Elder Qi’s screams.
With his face pale, like that of a frail scholar, Zhang Ruochen stood up with Demonic Sound’s a.s.sistance, and weakly said, “Give me the antidote…for the poison. I can… let you die a painless death…”
