Chapter 122: Blood Puppet Poison King

  Xia Chen's body hair stood on end, he didn't think and shouted with all his might: "Shifu, senior, help me add the innate seal!"

  Li Chen Dong and Fan Yun were shocked, but reacted extremely quickly, shouting loudly as they simultaneously slapped their palms onto Xia Chen's back.

  The reactions of the other cultivators were not slow either, and apart from Mrs. Sang holding onto her innate sense of direction, the other four also stretched out their palms and pressed them against Li Chen Dong's and Fan Yun's backs.

  The six paths of the majestic and unparalleled Xiantian Gang Qi suddenly surged into Xia Chen's body, like a great ocean pouring in. In comparison, the combined true energy of nearly a hundred later-generation disciples was like a gentle brook.

  Xia Chen's body shook violently, and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. Even with his cultivation of the Great Golden Body, he couldn't withstand this powerful force. Fortunately, the divine master was only transmitting aura, otherwise, even a slight vibration would have reduced Xia Chen to ashes.

  Even so, Xia Chen couldn't bear it, his entire body's blue veins bulging out, his blood seemingly about to boil over. He suddenly raised his hand, and a three-zhang-long snow-white crack in the sky shot out from his palm, stabbing straight at the giant black hand falling from the sky.

  A deafening thunderclap suddenly exploded, adding unparalleled momentum to this heaven-rending slash - that was the Thunder Seal!

  Two great trump cards, Xia Chen almost simultaneously played out! At this moment, Xia Chen was like a divine being, that was the combined power of six Shentong cultivators and over a hundred post-heavenly sixth-grade disciples, plus Lei Ting's assistance, which doubled this terrifying power once again!

  The strongest blow beyond description.

  The black giant hand suddenly stopped in mid-air, as if it had landed on the tip of a golden giant sword, and could no longer move half an inch.

  A bolt of lightning shot up, piercing the air with a deafening roar. In an instant, it blasted a massive hole in the black giant's hand, and countless sharp fragments exploded on its surface under the effect of the electric current-like light threads.

  "Ah!" The sharp and shrill voice, seemingly from the depths of the underworld, let out a mournful cry that echoed in everyone's minds, as if they had just suffered a severe blow.

  A huge black hand trembled, already covered in scars, but not yet completely collapsed. A massive and invisible force was holding its own against the heaven-cleaving power of thunder, that was the power of divine thought.

  The black fog rolled non-stop, as if filling the wounds on the black giant's hand, but this caused the surrounding black fog to thin out a lot, even revealing many houses.

  Li Chen Dong and others were overjoyed, never expecting that Xia Chen's probe would coincidentally recreate the divine thought of the person who had set up the forbidden array, and now was a great opportunity to break through.

  Whoa! A vigorous figure emerged from the black fog along the line of innate sense, and it was Warley.

  Taking advantage of the moment when the black divine thought's large hand was heavily injured by Xia Chen, Lady Sang finally pulled War Leth out of the dark fog.

  Zhan Li's entire body was surrounded by a halo of primordial energy, dispersing the toxic fog. His hands continuously shot out fireballs of primordial true fire, incinerating the highly toxic creatures that emerged from the black fog into ashes.

  "Brother, are you alright? The mastermind behind the scenes has just been severely injured by Xia Chen. Let's work together to take him down and make a break for it." Li Chen Dong shouted.

  "Was it a severe injury from Xia Chen?" Zhan Li's face paused for a moment, revealing an incredulous expression, and then nodded, "Alright, I was just surrounded by countless black creatures earlier, but I've almost confirmed the location of the seal source!"

  Eight people suddenly lifted their spirits, shouted in unison, jumped up, and shot out the divine art of the black giant hand in the sky, with countless pre-heavenly true fires bursting out instantly.

  The disciples naturally had no ability to assist, and could only vigilantly watch their surroundings, guarding against the sudden appearance of poisonous substances in the black fog.

  Xia Chen sat on the ground with a thud, panting heavily, his chest and abdomen burning like fire. This was the aftermath of the six divine cultivators' innate aura, which had been left behind after being forced out of his body at the same time it entered. If it had lasted just one more breath, Xia Chen would have been reduced to ashes.

  His congenital illness is still not something he can bear now. What happened just now was unavoidable and it's like playing with fire.

  However, the benefits Xia Chen gained were also unparalleled. With the help of the divine masters and the numerous disciples, Xia Chen's fusion of Lie Tian Feng Mo and Lei Ting Yin approached perfection, and his understanding reached a deeper level.

  Although his cultivation had been smooth in the past, he always had some subtle confusion that knew but didn't know why. Now, it was like seeing a lighthouse in the dark night, clear and unobstructed.

  Moreover, the power of over a hundred people poured into his body, and Xia Chen and others experienced the power of hundreds of top masters, sharing their insights on cultivation. Although it was only for a short period of time, what remained were all the essentials, enough for Xia Chen to digest and absorb. Not to mention the power of the six great divine transmission cultivators, which added a rich layer to his cultivation experience.

  It can be said that this borrowing of power is no less than a great opportunity from heaven, and compared to it, these aftereffects are nothing.

  He pulled out the yuanqi dan, and Xia Chen was about to take it. Suddenly, a slender white hand reached over, with a snow-white palm holding a crimson dan medicine, which was actually the Dà Yù Dan.

  "Don't take Yuan Qi Dan anymore, drink this instead." A gentle and pleasant voice sounded, a pair of clear autumn eyes looked at him with concern, it was Chen Qiushui.

  "Sister, is it a waste to take the Great Jade Pill for this little injury?" Xia Chen smiled, but still picked up the Great Jade Pill and took it. After circulating her Qi and dissolving the pill, her lower abdomen suddenly felt warm and cozy, very comfortable.

  "Do you know what a waste it is that you're still eating? Your words don't match your heart." Chen Qiushui smiled, her words dripping with charm and allure.

  "Shi Jie gave it to me, of course I have to eat it. Wasting Da Yu Dan is secondary, can't disappoint Shi Jie's heart." Xia Chen said.

  "What time is it already, and you still have the nerve to talk nonsense!" Chen Qiushui stretched out her hand and flicked his forehead with a loud crack, but the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, apparently quite pleased.

  Xu Shaobai saw from a distance, and his eyes widened in surprise. He let out a long sigh: "Alas! I had always thought that Qiushui was an ethereal being who didn't partake in worldly pleasures, a celestial maiden banished to the mortal realm. That's why I treated her with such reverence, often thinking thrice before speaking, fearing that I might offend her. Who would have known that she too enjoys sweet nothings? If only I had known earlier, why did I need to pretend to be a gentleman, only to let that scoundrel Xia Chen take advantage of me? Alas!"

  As he spoke, he pounded his chest and stamped his feet, revealing a look of extreme distress.

  Lin Fengling and Leng Xingchen exchanged a glance, and simultaneously shrugged their shoulders: "Xu Shaobai, why don't you change your style now and speak sweet nothings to Eldest Senior Sister? Or pretend to be crazy and act like a rascal, maybe Eldest Senior Sister will take a liking to you. Isn't it said that if a man isn't bad, a woman won't love him?"

  "What a ridiculous idea!" Xu Shaobai said discontentedly, "I, Xu Shaobai, am a refined and elegant gentleman, how could I change my inner self to speak like a commoner? Moreover, even if I were to become like that, Qiu Shui would not agree. I can only stand by and watch in pain... Alas, what sorrow..."

  "Ptoo!" Lin Fengling and Leng Xingchen simultaneously made a vomiting gesture.

  Bang! Bang! Bang!

  A huge black hand in the sky is rushing horizontally in the siege of eight Shentong cultivators, trying to break through.

  Although it was on the verge of collapse after being attacked by Lian Tian Feng and Lei Ting Yin, the Black Big Hand did not disperse, but instead became extremely powerful, and clashed with the eight people non-stop, producing a deafening sound.

  Eight people also used their full strength, and the divine method was released at the same time. The sky almost turned into a world of light and fire. A large piece of postnatal true fire and prenatal fierce energy shot out in all directions, making a strong breaking sound, falling to the ground from time to time, causing the disciples to dodge constantly.

  Although the cultivators of the first level of the Divine Path couldn't fly, they could still hover in the air for a short time. Silhouettes crisscrossed the sky, and although no one was a match for the black giant hand in a one-on-one battle, eight people working together were enough to trap it.

  Of course, this is also the reason why the Black Big Hand was recreated. Otherwise, even if the eight people were twice as powerful, they would not be able to trap it.

  Li Chen Dong said loudly: "Since you have a divine mind, you must also be a senior fellow. Why did you attack the disciples of our four major sects without reason and harm innocent townspeople, turning them into poisonous corpses? Are you not afraid that heaven will be angry and people will resent it, and my four sects' ancestors will take action to beat you into dust?"

  Every word he spoke was uttered with a stern air, implying a sense of justice and righteousness, like the roar of a golden lion, deafening and astonishing, greatly boosting morale.

  "You little brat, what nonsense are you spouting?" The sharp voice rose up, completely unaffected. "The Four Great Sects, heh heh, what a big name, but in my eyes, they're all nothing but trash. I do as I please, following only my own heart. What's this about heaven's wrath and human resentment? Do you think you can lecture me?"

  Who is this? Eight people were stunned, thinking secretly in their hearts, which side of the expert would have such a self-proclaimed title.

  "That sharp, fine voice said: 'Ben Jun has suffered a serious injury and is absorbing the life essence of these villagers to heal himself. Originally, it had nothing to do with you ants, but who let you foolishly rush into my forbidden area? Now, not one of you will be allowed to leave! After I absorb your life essence, my injuries will almost be healed, and I can even refine a group of high-quality poisonous corpses. What a wonderful thing! Haha!"

  The sharp and fine voice burst into laughter, and the cold laughter was so intense that it made everyone feel a chill, extremely uncomfortable.

  "You're already surrounded by us, on the verge of death, and yet you still want to turn us into poisonous zombies? How dare you! Today, while you're severely injured, I'll thoroughly eliminate you, so as not to let your evil spread in all directions." Sun Ming Sheng said angrily.

  "You really think you can trap me? Ignorant little fool, today I'll be the first to take you down and let you taste the pain of becoming a poisonous corpse!" The sharp voice suddenly turned vicious.

  A tattered and worn-out black large hand suddenly transformed, turning into a young man wearing black armor.

  The man's face was pale, with thin and long eyebrows, and his pupils seemed to be hiding a vague illusion, as if countless scenes were changing within them. On his face, black stripes occasionally appeared, revealing a strong sense of eeriness.

  An aura of unparalleled intensity emanated from the young man, stunning everyone in attendance. However, it also exuded a sense of weakness, clearly due to severe injuries.

  He floated in mid-air, like a demon from hell.

  "You are Blood Puppet Poison King!" Xuanlingzi exclaimed, as if he had suddenly remembered something upon seeing the young man.
