"Brat, watch carefully. It's your good fortune to be able to die under Chiyou's ancient technique!"
Lu Zhenyang's blood-colored Yang God laughed cruelly. His small hands quickly formed hand seals. Then, he suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed it against the black smoke in the center.
The black smoke shook. At first, it was slightly scattered, but then it quickly gathered together and began to spin rapidly. The surrounding black smoke that had floated up later also gathered around it, spinning like stars surrounding the moon.
As it spun faster and faster, the black smoke slowly rose until it was three feet above the blood-colored Yang God's head. It gradually formed a whirlpool.
The whirlpool was extremely extraordinary. With just a glance, it was as if one's gaze would be sucked in. There was also a strong ancient aura coming from it.
Feeling the aura coming from the whirlpool, I became more and more nervous.
Lu Zhenyang had obviously used a killing move, but my body was currently restrained. Not to mention fighting back, I couldn't even move!
At this moment, I understood that Lu Zhenyang, who had obtained Chiyou's inheritance and condensed his Yang God, was much stronger than me.
If he wanted to kill me, it would be almost effortless.
However, he had chosen the most troublesome method. First, he had controlled me and the Pupil Snake Spirit, then he had used a killing move that had taken a lot of time to prepare. He had wanted to torture my mind and make me feel despair, before finally dying in fear.
My heart gradually turned cold. Looking at the bottomless whirlpool above my head, despair spread uncontrollably from the bottom of my heart.
I'm afraid I'm doomed this time, right?
I smiled bitterly. I didn't know what terrifying thing the whirlpool would summon, but I was powerless to resist.
"Everything is over … Zhou Yi, now you should feel my despair and fear. When you almost killed me, you should have been prepared to be torn into pieces by me!"
"At the Young Phoenix Gathering, you weren't a Young Phoenix Genius!
But cultivation doesn't look at the beginning, but the ending!
Your ending is to die in my hands! "
"Reincarnate well in your next life … No, you don't have a next life. I will capture your soul and use a secret technique to refine it."
Lu Zhenyang's blood-colored Yang God's face became more and more ferocious. He looked at me fiercely, as if he had gone crazy. "Do you know, I have imagined killing you countless times, but I didn't expect it to come so quickly. Zhou Yi, I have specially prepared dozens of ways to refine your soul for you. Let me tell you, death is not liberation, but the beginning of endless torture!"
As soon as he said that, the blood-colored Yang God let out a breath and suddenly raised his hand. Two intertwined black and red energy shot out from his fingertips and headed straight for the black whirlpool above his head. "Die!"
The two energy shot into the black whirlpool. The whirlpool became faster and faster, as if it had eaten a tonic. The whirlpool suddenly expanded. Then, a black cloud enveloped..
In the middle of the black cloud, a small red dot appeared. The dot was inconspicuous at first, but it grew larger and larger, gradually turning into an eye.
It was a blood-red eye. Black smoke formed the eyelids and eyelids. The blood-red eyeball and the white of the eye seemed to be real, and I could clearly see the blood vessels on it.
Thin streaks of lightning flashed across his eyes, and under the lightning were countless rolling and flowing red lights, so red that it seemed as if blood could drip from them.
As soon as the eye appeared, I felt my body shake, as if I was being stared at by a primordial beast. I couldn't help but tremble.
The blood-red eye trembled a few times, and in an instant, there was another wave of black smoke. It seemed to blink, and when it opened its eyes, a red light shot out from the pupil. It followed the direction of its gaze, which was where I was, and shot straight down!
In that red light, there was an irresistible power hidden. This was a terrifying power that was completely beyond my understanding!
It even surpassed the shock that Yan Nantian's Yang God had given me. Only the sacrificial evil spirit in the Yinshang Royal Tomb had given me such a feeling!
However, it was meaningless to think about the strength of his power. No matter what, I couldn't escape death.
I stared at Lu Zhenyang and ignored the red light. My heart was filled with unwillingness!
Why? Why did he reach the Yang God Celestial Master level in the Devil Refining Gourd?!
If Lu Zhenyang was still a Celestial Master, even if he had the Chiyou Battle Axe, with my four-word seal, Tong, the snake spirit, and the fatty and Zhang Kanwen, I wouldn't dare to say that we could easily defeat him, but we could at least be on par with him.
But now, facing Lu Zhenyang who had condensed his Yang God, I couldn't do anything. After all, he was at a higher realm, and the power and True Essence he used were not on the same level. I had just become a Celestial Master, and my power wasn't stable yet. After Lu Zhenyang had blocked my sword light, I was doomed to fail.
I couldn't accept this!
I hadn't taken revenge for my parents yet, and I was going to die in the hands of my enemy. I was going to drag a bunch of my close friends into this. How could I accept this?
However, everything didn't move according to my will. The red light slowly but firmly pressed down, carrying the aura of death as it pressed down on me!
"The first of the Eight Trigrams, the Six Elements of the World, the First Line Wheel Rises …" Suddenly, I heard a faint voice from the corner of the room. I turned around and saw the fatty with his eyes closed. He was holding something in his hand as he muttered something.
"… Soul Returning Eight Trigrams, Details!" The fatty clasped his hands together and opened his eyes.
His eyes shone brightly. Then, he roared and threw the thing in his hand out!
I only saw that thing flash past in front of me, blocking the red light between me and myself.
In the next second, the red light collided with it.
I didn't hear any sound of collision, but I felt an indescribable power explode in front of me and engulf the entire room!
"What did you do?!"
Lu Zhenyang's blood-colored Yang God was shocked. He waved his hand and shot a streak of True Yuan that pierced through the fatty's shoulder!
The fatty coughed out a mouthful of blood, but he still wore a smile on his face. "Damn, I'm risking everything!"
I didn't have time to care about the fatty's injury. I looked up and saw a milky white shell that was emitting a gentle light a few palms away from me. It blocked the red light that was emitting the aura of death!
The red light enveloped the shell and flashed for a few seconds before slowly disappearing.
The dark clouds above the blood-colored Yang God's head slowly dispersed, and the bloody hand that was controlling me retracted back into the ground.
My body suddenly regained its freedom. I couldn't react in time and knelt on the ground, panting heavily.
Ding dang, ding dang.
A few pieces of the broken shell fell in front of me. I slowly reached out and picked one up. I couldn't believe my eyes. It was this small shell that had blocked the attack that had almost surpassed the Yang God's?
"This thing …" At this moment, the blood-colored Yang God floated back into Lu Zhenyang's body. Lu Zhenyang opened his eyes and looked at the shell fragment in my hand in shock. He couldn't help but exclaim, "An ancient coin?"
"How was it? How's my skill?"
The fatty coughed out another mouthful of blood. He smiled bitterly and said to me, "Third Baby, I'll leave the rest to you …"
Before he could finish his sentence, he fell to the ground and didn't move.
Seeing the fatty fall to the ground, my heart clenched.
The fatty was my childhood friend. Although I didn't know what the shell was, there was no doubt that it was something the fatty kept to save his life. It was likely that his master, Zhenren Guan, had given it to him. I didn't know how precious it was, but he had used it on me.
The Snake Spirit and Tong Tong were still lying on the ground, but I gritted my teeth and stood up. I shook my arms, and the surging True Yuan surged from my Heaven Meridians.
"Zhou Yi, you're really tenacious."
Lu Zhenyang gritted his teeth, and his tone became colder. "Until now, there are still people saving you … But let's see how many times this ancient treasure can save you!"
"Once is enough," I lowered my head and softly spat out a sentence.
The fatty had almost used his life to find an opportunity for me. How could I not cherish it?
Just now, in order to torture me, Lu Zhenyang had used Chiyou's secret technique. The terrifying attack from the blood-colored Yang God had almost surpassed the Yang God realm. Even if Lu Zhenyang had a great opportunity, it had only been a few days since he had come out of Chiyou's tomb. At most, he had just become a Yang God Celestial Master!
Just now, how many times could he use that Daoist art?
It was still unknown who would be the winner!
"Hehe, let's try. Let's see what other tricks a trash like you has!" Lu Zhenyang smiled in disdain and raised his head to look at me.
Lu Zhenyang and I stood opposite each other, ready to fight at any moment. However, at that moment, there was a shout from outside the house.
"Hey, the thief inside. Quickly hand over the monster!"
The voice was full of energy. Lu Zhenyang and I moved our gazes and looked outside the house.
Outside the door, there were a few Taoist priests wearing Taoist robes and their hair was combed into a bun. They looked sage-like and righteous.
People from the Celestial Master Sect?
I was stunned at first, but then I remembered what Wang Li's mother had said … Why did this bunch of cowardly noses come here at this time?
The few Taoists shouted a few times. Seeing that there was no response from inside the house, they looked at each other and seemed to be on guard. They didn't enter the house directly, but raised their hands and shot a streak of True Essence at the door, forcefully blasting it open.
I glanced from afar. Heavenly Master Sect really put in a lot of effort this time, sending three Heavenly Masters. However, it made sense. According to what they knew, Zhang Kanwen was the only enemy here who could use a secret technique to barely reach the power of a Heavenly Master. Actually, sending one or two Heavenly Masters was more than enough, but they sent three. I could only say that although this bunch of cowardly old Taoists were arrogant, they were also very cautious.
"Quickly search and see if they ran away!"
The Heavenly Master Realm Taoist who was the leader entered first. He waved his sleeves and a peach wood sword appeared in his hand. There were crisscrossing talismans on it, and it looked really extraordinary.
"Yes, Martial Uncle!" The few young Daoists who followed behind him responded and dispersed to look for him.
The old Taoist nodded and looked around with the sword in his hand. He seemed to feel that something was wrong and walked directly to the house we were in.
