"Karma?"
Zhou Qing smiled faintly; it was the first ti he had heard such a term.
The palm strike just now was rely a casual blow from him, easily blocked by Tianji Shangren, nothing surprising.
If he wished, he could kill this person at any ti, but considering the Penglai Island behind Tianji Shangren, even the Qin Kingdom hadn't dared to invade, he dismissed the thought.
"Every cause has an effect. The sins of today will be repaid in the future! If not in this life, then in the next; if not on oneself, then on one's children. That's all I'll say. Whether you listen or not is up to you," Tianji Shangren said coldly.
"Annoying!"
Zhou Qing's eyes turned icy as he raised his hand and sent a palm strike, sending Tianji Shangren flying into a corner, his face turning pale.
This old Taoist didn't know his place, daring to curse him. Did he really think Zhou Qing wouldn't dare to kill him?
"I heard you're skilled in divination. Why don't you calculate how long I have left to live?" Zhou Qing sneered, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
Tianji Shangren snorted coldly, actually starting to calculate, but soon his expression changed to one of shock.
"Oh? What's the result?" Zhou Qing asked with a smile.
Tianji Shangren remained silent, but his eyes were filled with unmistakable astonishnt.
"Hahaha!"
Zhou Qing laughed heartily, not pressing further, and turned to walk deeper into the tunnel.
"The ancestor of the Zhou Family, it really is the Zhou Family..."
Xu Hei's mind raced, his scalp tingling with fear.
At this mont, Zhou Qing was approaching step by step, and two more rogue cultivators attempting to escape were killed with a single palm strike.
If Xu Hei were to erge from the stone wall now, he would surely be targeted on the spot.
Should he use the Small Teleportation Talisman?
Or the Black Dragon Pagoda?
The Black Dragon Pagoda consud too much energy and might not ensure escape. With this old undying one's experience, he surely had a counterasure.
The Small Teleportation Talisman, who knows where it would transport him.
Moreover, Zhou Qing had been holding sothing in his hand, hidden in his sleeve. Knowing Xu Hei had a Small Teleportation Talisman, he must have been prepared!
As soon as there was a hint of spatial fluctuation, Zhou Qing would likely react instantly!
Xu Hei could use the Small Teleportation Talisman to escape once, but how could the opponent not know he would try to escape a second ti?
Instead, it might expose him.
Against such a cunning opponent, Xu Hei couldn't afford a single mistake; a mistake ant death!
"This is the only way!"
Xu Hei took a deep breath and made up his mind.
While Xu Hei was contemplating, Zhou Qing killed five more people, becoming even more reckless.
Even when so rogue cultivators revealed their identities, they were rcilessly killed by Zhou Qing.
At this rate, in just two breaths, Zhou Qing would be right in front of Xu Hei.
Xu Hei quickly stored half of the puppet into his Storage Bag, swallowed an explosive essence pill, and his blood began to burn, focusing his mind to a single point.
"Ever-changing Fish and Dragon!"
In this life-and-death crisis, Xu Hei unleashed unprecedented speed.
He burst into flas, like a black lightning bolt, shooting out from the stone wall, racing towards the ancient dicinal garden ahead.
His speed was indescribable, leaving countless afterimages in mid-air, appearing in all directions, filling the sky.
This was the third layer of the perfected Ever-changing Fish and Dragon, with countless afterimages, making it impossible to find the true body!
Xu Hei didn't use an External Incarnation but relied on his true form, achieving his peak speed, faster than even the Core Formation Stage!
The mont Xu Hei moved, Zhou Qing also acted.
He flicked a Talisman of Forbidden Spirit, which shattered in mid-air, creating a space devoid of spirit, prohibiting all spells and talismans.
Even the Small Teleportation Talisman could be forcibly interrupted, one of Zhou Qing's trump cards.
However, it was ineffective against the Ever-changing Fish and Dragon.
"Hmm?"
Zhou Qing was slightly taken aback, clearly not expecting this, but he reacted swiftly, raising his hand to scatter all the afterimages in an instant.
"Gravity Technique!"
He seamlessly raised his hand, exerting a powerful gravitational force on the remaining Xu Hei, holding him firmly and pulling him back.
In the blink of an eye, Xu Hei was pulled close.
But then Zhou Qing's expression froze.
The Xu Hei he had caught was not the true body but an External Incarnation!
"When did he create an incarnation? I didn't notice at all!"
Zhou Qing's heart was shaken.
An External Incarnation could only be created at the fourth layer of Ever-changing Fish and Dragon. In this life-and-death mont, Xu Hei naturally broke through under ntal stimulation.
Zhou Qing looked ahead, seeing Xu Hei's true form already rushing into the whirlwind of red hair.
At this mont, Xu Hei felt an unbearable itch all over his body, as strange energy drilled into him, as if trying to grow red hair. But he gritted his teeth, took out a Token from his Storage Bag, and sped up again, rushing towards the sealed area.
The Red-haired Corpse King on the wall roared, about to raise a hand to stop him, but upon seeing the Token, its expression froze, and even the whirlwind of red hair around Xu Hei weakened slightly.
"Whoosh!"
Xu Hei slipped into the sealed light barrier without any obstruction, passing through and disappearing.
At this mont.
The outside world was in a daze.
Not only Zhou Qing was stunned, but even the mbers of the Chu Tian Alliance were bewildered.
No one expected a snake to rush into the light barrier first, without being stopped by the ancient seal.
Seeing the Red-haired Corpse King's expression and recalling Xu Hei's previous actions, they imdiately realized it must have been due to the Token.
"Hmph! You won't escape!"
Zhou Qing stomped his foot, raising a golden light shield, and charged towards the seal. Any red hair that touched him ignited into flas, quickly burning away.
He took out a golden seal, striking the formation with it, causing it to tremble and the world to crack.
"A re remnant of an ancient formation dares to stop ?"
Zhou Qing's eyes were cold as he smashed the seal again, the deafening roar causing cracks in the formation.
The Red-haired Corpse King, like a mad demon, broke free from the arrows, its eyes flashing with lightning, roaring like thunder, charging at Zhou Qing.
...
anwhile.
As soon as Xu Hei entered the ancient dicinal garden, he was enveloped by a rich dicinal fragrance, and even the strange energy within him dissipated rapidly, with the corpse Qi being expelled from his body.
Just by taking a breath, Xu Hei felt purified.
Xu Hei let out a sigh of relief, collapsing to the ground.
He had taken a huge risk earlier, testing with the Token. If it hadn't worked, he would have had to use his trump card.
Fortunately, he succeeded!
The Red-haired Corpse King indeed recognized the Token.
"This Zhou Family ancestor is a problem. I must find a way to eliminate him!" Xu Hei thought with resentnt.
Twice he had nearly been killed, all thanks to this person.
Such an old undying one, who doesn't play by the rules, must be killed to eliminate future troubles. Any talk of shifting hatred to the Chu Tian Alliance was nonsense! The opponent was targeting him!
In fact, it was understandable. He had opened the Earth Path and erged from the pyramid, surely possessing countless treasures. Not coveting him would be abnormal.
Xu Hei exhaled, refocusing his thoughts, and looked around.
This dicinal mountain was vast, filled with a dazzling array of dicinal herbs, most of which he didn't recognize or had never heard of. Thousand-year-old herbs were everywhere, and there were quite a few ten-thousand-year-old ones.
These relics from ancient tis, even a single blade of grass, would be worth a fortune.
Even the soil here had remarkable dicinal properties.
This place was visible from the outside, yet no sound from outside could be heard. Xu Hei looked back, seeing the Corpse King and Zhou Qing locked in battle, fighting fiercely, blood and light filling the sky, shaking the surroundings, with the tunnel showing signs of collapse, but it didn't affect the formation inside.
This ancient formation isolated the area, like a paradise.
Xu Hei glanced at the cracks in the formation, feeling cautious. This ancient formation wasn't unbreakable, and he needed to scour the area as quickly as possible.
Of course, he couldn't take everything, or he'd beco a target for everyone.
