Chapter 808: Seriously Injured Gu Yi
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
True Lord Gu Yi was one of Crimson Emperor’s nine personal disciples, a Primordial Immortal who was famous for his speed among all the Evil Slaying Generals of the Heaven. As he was Crimson Emperor’s personal disciple, even though he had stepped into the Primordial realm, he remained a subject of the Heaven at his own will, unlike most of the other Primordial Immortals who either dwelt in seclusion in the Nine Heavens, or occupied an outer heavenly realm and beca the supre leader there.
As an Evil Slaying General, his daily task was to take his n on patrol around the world. If he found any target that t the conditions of extermination lay out by the Heaven, he had the right to annihilate it on the spot. Besides that, whenever an important mber of the Heaven summoned him with a secret spell, he had to quickly bring his n to the rescue.
Though already famous for his speed, True Lord Gu Yi had himself a proud immortal artifact called the ‘Rhino Cloak’, which was made with the feathers of over nine hundred divine birds who were famous for their speed. It could increase his speed by over a hundred tis.
His speed was faster than Wu Qi to begin with, and with the help of his cloak, it had taken him only a short space of ti to overtake his own n and caught up with Wu Qi, then pierced Ao Buzun’s neck with a spear.
Looking at the punches Wu Qi threw at him, True Lord Gu Yi laughed with contempt. A deep roar ca bursting out of his throat as his cloak fluttered behind his back, and in the next mont he was wheeling gracefully around Wu Qi like a spirit. Then the punches ca, but none could touch him. Instead, his spear, a Primordial artifact, darted forward like so purple serpents over and over again to stab at Wu Qi.
The spear, nad the Immortal Spear of Ti, was his natal Primordial artifact which the Heaven had crafted for him using a huge amount of resources. It was said to have the ability to catch up with the ti that had gone by. Whether it was just an overstatent or not, it showed that it was a fast spear.
In a flash, instead of hitting True Lord Gu Yi, Wu Qi was struck 198 tis by him with the spear. Bright sparks flew from all over him as the clatter of tal rang without end. Fortunately, he had already exercised Dragon Kill. With his body densely covered under three layers of purple-and-golden dragon scales, none of the attacks could hurt him or even left a mark on him.
A thousandth of a second later, Wu Qi suddenly retreated, and True Lord Gu Yi, surprised, lowered his spear and took a few steps back.
There was a limit to how long the Rhino Cloak could boost True Lord Gu Yi’s speed, and the short exchange just now had already consud about thirty percent of his immortal energy, so he had to back off to regulate his breath. Otherwise, if his energy were to deplete now, even though he was a Primordial Immortal, he would beco the at on the chopping board. He could not let that happen in a fight like this. Also, he found it hard to accept that his spear had failed to pierce Wu Qi’s scales, and he needed so ti to think about it.
Wu Qi took a deep breath and backed away for miles, staring at True Lord Gu Yi in astonishnt. Just now, in that brief mont, he had thrown over three thousand punches at this man. Even a planet would have shattered thousands of tis under such a fierce attack, but sohow none of the blow had landed on the target. It made Wu Qi realized that he was facing a tough opponent.
Both n stared at each other for a long mont. At length, Wu Qi raised a thumb and said, “True Lord Gu Yi? You are fast!”
True Lord Gu Yi nodded slowly as he removed his armor, leaving only the cloak streaming down from his shoulder. Laughing dryly, he said, “Is that Dragon Transformation Script? No, it doesn’t look like that to … it must be the Dragon Kill, then? Why else could your dragon scales stop my spear? Hehe, luckily I was not hit by your fists, or I would be in real danger now!”
Pointing at the armor he had taken off, True Lord Gu Yi said honestly, “I bet you can punch through this immortal armor as if it is made of paper, can’t you? Well, since wearing it will also slow down, I might as well take it off. Be careful, my speed can increase by ten percent without wearing it!”
A cold grin erged on Wu Qi’s face. “Increase by ten percent? Aye, you better pray that my punch missed you! You will die!”
After that, both n fixed their eyes on each other like a pair of gacocks, but none made the first move. Wu Qi had a mighty strength, and if he could land a blow on True Lord Gu Yi, he could certainly deal him a serious injury. But True Lord Gu Yi was fast, and Wu Qi did not have the confidence to hit him. However, just because he was so fast that all his attacks were not strong, so he could not cause any real harm to Wu Qi either.
One could not be hit, and one could not be hurt. The n stared at each other for a long ti, their eyes flickering with gleams. Then, all of a sudden, True Lord Gu Yi gave a loud cry and launched himself at Wu Qi in a bolt of purple lightning. With the Immortal Spear of Ti as the tip of the lightning, and the top speed given by the Rhino Cloak, he struck a deadly blow. By focusing all his strength on one point and charging at top speed, he was full of strong confidence that he could pierce Wu Qi’s body with this strike.
The sound the spear made as it pierced through the void was crisp and sohow lodious, and it moved so fast that it had turned into a blur. Even then, the ti around True Lord Gu Yi and the spear began to hasten, ten tis, twenty tis, thirty tis… eventually, it topped at five hundred tis. At such speed, the Immortal Spear of Ti did hasten the ti, as if it was trying to catch up the ti that had gone by.
A sense of chaotic space-and-ti disorder made Wu Qi felt dizzy. How could one catch up the ti that had passed by hastening ti?
But True Lord Gu Yi’s strike did make Wu Qi felt that way. In the blink of an eye, he and his spear had disappeared into the void, caught up with a mont that had passed, and struck at the body of Wu Qi who was fighting with him a mont ago.
While the spear was still about a mile away from him, a stream of blood suddenly shot out from his chest where a three-inch-deep gash burst open.
A deafening cry burst through Wu Qi’s lips. From above him Dark Yin Celestial Tower sent out a great sheet of starlight to envelope him, which made the flow of ti in the surroundings suddenly soared two thousand tis. It was the fastest speed Wu Qi could control after stepping into the Primordial realm. The rapid flowing of ti then ford into an invisible barrier and isolated the area around him from the outside world, turning it into a domain totally under his control.
In the next instant, True Lord Gu Yi rushed headlong into this domain. His spear began to shake violently as the 1,500-fold difference in the flowing of ti had turned into a terrible ti shock and gave it a trendous high-frequency pressure. He looked at Wu Qi, astounded, and cried out in alarm, “You… you can control ti? How fast is this?”
Wu Qi made no answer. Trapped in his ti domain, True Lord Gu Yi had lost the ability to move or struggle like a rabbit who had fallen into a quagmire. With ti around him flowing two thousand tis faster and True Lord Gu Yi only five hundred tis faster, all his actions were much faster now.
In reality, Wu Qi was slower than True Lord Gu Yi, but with the ti around him hastened now, all his moves had beco too fast for the general to see. With both hands he began to perform incantation gestures, to cast vicious curses he learned from the Primordial Dao of Divinity. First to shot out of his fingertips was a dozen curses that could weaken a man and take away his mobility, then ca the blood-devouring curse and its twin, the soul-devouring curse. Next in the line was the curses that could rot one’s flesh and internal organs and bones, and curses that could burn off one’s immortal energy. Slithering across the void in wisps of black smoke, these curses fell and attached themselves, one after another, onto True Lord Gu Yi’s body.
As both of them were Primordial experts, Wu Qi’s curses did great damage to True Lord Gu Yi. His body quickly rotted and deford, and for a fraction of a second his hand lost grip of his spear, which slipped out of his palm and thrust forward in a stream of purple fla, but was imdiately deviated of its course by a ti vortex Wu Qi had conjured.
Not sure if he could kill True Lord Gu Yi, Wu Qi dared not to play all his cards, so he just kept attacking the man with the various magic he learned from Directorate of Celestial, mixed with the powers of the Primordial Dao of Divinity and the Primordial Divine Script. Countless curses and divine runes poured out endlessly as True Lord Gu Yi’s overall strength weakened rapidly, and soon yellow blisters began to appear across his face, with filthy pus spewing out of them.
Drenched in pain, True Lord Gu Yi bellowed furiously, “You are a body-and-magic cultivator? You already have the cultivation base of a Supre Oracle? How else can your curses hurt ?” Even as he said that, a purple fla rose from all over him. Originated from outside of the Thirty-three Heavens, it was called the ‘Taiqing Heavenly Fire’, which was a very powerful divine fla. The thunder tribulation that ca in the Heavenly Tribulation befell when immortals broke through a new realm was actually the condensation of this fla.
The strength of Wu Qi’s curses was weakened by thirty percent as soon as the fla erged. Then, True Lord Gu Yi began to chant an evil-slaying scripture, while his Rhino Cloak transford into a beam of green light, wrapped around him, and sped away. It happened so fast that even with his eyesight, Wu Qi could not see how did the general disappear.
Almost reflectively, he reached out a hand and grabbed. A delicate aura rushed out of his palm; the thievery energy engulfed the Rhino Cloak as Wu Qi quietly exercised the Myriad Harmonization Grand Magic. A stream of pure, strange energy quickly poured into his body, and he felt his body beca lighter instantly, while his speed suddenly increased by over thirty tis.
What his grab had stolen was not only the essence energy contained in the Rhino Cloak, but also part of True Lord Gu Yi’s cultivation base.
Wu Qi roared with laughter and launched himself forward in a beam of black light. Relied on the ti that had been hastened by Dark Yin Celestial Tower, in just the blink of an eye he had caught up with True Lord Gu Yi. Not waiting for the general to react, he slamd an elbow into the man’s ribs.
A mighty force exploded like a bomb, and a loud noise rang out from inside the general’s body as a dozen of his ribs shattered by the blow. Compared to Wu Qi’s body, which he had tempered with the True Body of Heaven and Earth Scripture, the Dragon Transformation Script, and the Dragon Kill, True Lord Gu Yi’s body was too weak. Although both of them were Primordial experts, if Wu Qi’s body was a steel ingot, True Lord Gu Yi was a piece of tofu.
The severe pain made the general cried out in a hoarse voice. Fuming with rage, he thrust a palm out and slashed it down in the direction of Wu Qi’s forehead. The surrounding void crumbled with a boom, and a pitch-black spatial rift transford into a sharp blade, shooting straight for Wu Qi.
With one swift move Wu Qi grabbed True Lord Gu Yi’s Rhino Cloak, then gave him a kick. The trendous force knocked him into the far distance, but his cloak, twitching restlessly, was clutched firmly in Wu Qi’s hand.
Screaming, True Lord Gu Yi darted a venomous look at Wu Qi as he summoned his spear with a hand gesture, then transford into a fine beam of fla and sped away.
True Lord Gu Yi, who was a body cultivator focused on speed, was overwheld by Wu Qi and forced to flee after being seriously injured.
“Just you wait, Marquis of Dong Hai Province! I’ll deal with you hard one day!”
Wu Qi gave a cold laugh, swallowed the Rhino Cloak, turned around and left.
Before leaving, he pressed a palm down and destroyed the Heaven’s outpost in front of him, throwing tens of thousands of Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals thousands of miles away, all bones were broken.
