Chapter 499: Chapter 466: Successive Kills _1

“Five Poisons!”

Shock and incredulity spread across the face of the Blood Demon Ancestor.

He never expected someone to stealthily launch an attack from the shadows, one powerful enough to seriously injure the Five Poisons God Monarch in an instant.

After all, he had cast layers of measures in the vicinity, making it impossible for anyone to sneak in undetected.

Could it be that this was a premeditated plot of theirs? How dare they?

With the myriad measures he put in place, not even five or six cultivators of the same level could defeat him. On the contrary, they might even get backlash. He couldn’t comprehend where they got the audacity to take such a risk.

“It’s you!”

Xu Mu’s figure emerged from behind the Five Poisons God Monarch. Coupled with his signature sky-splitting halberd, the Blood Demon Ancestor could hardly contain his outrage.

At this moment, the Blood Demon Ancestor didn’t dare hesitate. He decisively abandoned his attack on Lu Jingkong and turned to save the Five Poisons God Monarch.

Without the aid of the Five Poisons God Monarch, it would be difficult for him to defeat Lu Jingkong with his current power.

Instead of being entangled with Lu Jingkong without any results, it was better to rescue the Five Poisons God Monarch first and then make a plan.

In any case, it was already impossible to deal with both of them. All he could do now was to mitigate his losses as much as possible.

But before the Blood Demon Ancestor could even reach him, Xu Mu’s sky-splitting halberd swept across, cleaving the Five Poisons God Monarch’s body in two.

The green mist that originally surrounded the Five Poison God Monarch slowly dissipated, revealing his lifeless body.

“How is this possible?”

The Blood Demon Ancestor froze in place, too stunned to speak.

The Five Poisons God Monarch, being an old Nascent Soul cultivator, shouldn’t have died so easily even after his body was destroyed. At least his soul should manage to escape.

But now, he was slain as easily as a common mortal.

His death was undeniably too easy.

This was almost beyond his comprehension, leaving the Blood Demon Ancestor in a daze.

“Now it’s your turn.”

Xu Mu smirked and brandished his halberd before charging in.

Those exceptionally tough red strings were as fragile as noodles under his halberd, being cut down one by one.

They posed no obstruction to Xu Mu at all.

“There’s something strange about his magic weapon!”

The Blood Demon Ancestor instantly recognized the problem.

However, for Xu Mu at the moment, whether he realized or not made no difference.

In a blink of an eye, Xu Mu had already charged in.

On the other side, Lu Jingkong also unleashed his hidden power, transforming into a half-fish state. His twenty-four Luoshui swords combined into one that he held in his hand. With one swing, he cut open the obstacles in front of him and charged towards the Blood Demon Ancestor.

“Stop them!”

The Blood Demon Ancestor’s face turned pale.

He thought he had the situation under control, or at the very least, a stalemate. But in an instant, he found himself at an absolute disadvantage, facing danger.

Those Golden Pill disciples he summoned were obviously aware of what was about to transpire.

It was highly likely that their Ancestor was going to die at the hands of these two ruthless assailants.

However, under the ban imposed by the Blood Demon Ancestor, even if they wanted to defy his orders, they had no way to do so. They could only grit their teeth and continue to infuse their Spiritual Power.

Those red threads seemed to come alive and madly entangled around the duo, doing their best to obstruct their path.

The Blood Demon Ancestor, on the other hand, was desperately trying to escape.

At this point, he was no longer optimistic about defeating the two or even negotiating terms with them.

Now, he had only one thing in mind— to escape as far away as possible.

As long as he could run away, he would hide and seek opportunities for revenge against them in the future.
