Chapter 124: The Detoxification Tower
However, Blood Devil King gradually became anxious. He originally didn't put the crowd in his eyes, thinking that even if he was seriously injured, he could easily kill these ignorant juniors. Unexpectedly, the eight people joined forces and caused him great trouble, and even breaking through was difficult to achieve.
Moreover, as the battle escalated, his injuries also showed a gradual worsening trend, and he was gradually at a disadvantage in the fight against Shen Tong.
"This group of bastards, they're actually quite a handful. It seems that to deal with them, I'll have to pay the price... but if so, my injuries will only worsen..." Blood Puppet King's face was gloomy as he fought back while thinking about something.
In the blink of an eye, another incense stick's worth of time had passed. The eight divine transcendence cultivators were becoming increasingly harmonious in their coordination. The innate true flames merged into a single entity, forming wave after wave of fire that tightly trapped Blood Puppet King at the center of the sea of flames.
Everyone's heart was filled with excitement, all thinking that today they might really be able to join forces and kill one of the old monsters, this is a figure at the level of the Seven Great Sects' founders after all, although he had suffered heavy injuries, he was still a genuine Godhead Second Realm cultivator.
The gap between each of the ten realms of divine sense is also increasing, and it's already far beyond the gap between the ten realms of acquired divinity. It's extremely difficult for a first-realm divine sense to kill a second-realm divine sense by skipping levels.
On the ground, although Hou Tian's disciples couldn't see very clearly, they could vaguely make out a black figure trapped inside the ring of fire, no matter how hard it struggled, it couldn't get out.
Many disciples breathed a sigh of relief and their expressions also calmed down, feeling that they had already grasped victory.
"It seems that Shifu and the others have the upper hand, we may not have a chance to make a move after all." Xie Tianfeng said.
Yang Qianyi and Chen Qiushui nodded in agreement, watching with great interest.
Xia Chen didn't say a word, he just stared intently ahead, although the situation was quite optimistic now, but his vigilance in his heart hadn't relaxed in the slightest.
A Divine Transcender who has undergone the Second Refining must have an ace up their sleeve. If they were to be taken down by a few juniors so quickly, then Blood Puppet Poison King would indeed be too incompetent.
Although the eight of them fought more and more bravely, they firmly suppressed the Blood Puppet Poison King. However, the Blood Puppet Poison King was unusually stable, not showing any signs of defeat at all. It seems that to thoroughly kill this demon head, it will still take a considerable amount of time.
Xuanlingzi and other veteran cultivators could still keep their cool, advancing steadily, but Sun Mingsheng and Jiao Yunfei were young and hot-blooded, and they couldn't wait to turn the Blood Puppet Toxic King into a meat paste in one go.
"Die, Blood Puppet King!" Suddenly, Jiao Yunfei shouted loudly.
She stood up straight, took a few steps in the air, and with each step, lotus flowers bloomed. With a flick of her waist, she suddenly let out a sharp cry, and a sound like tearing silver foil rang out. In her hand, a silver sword appeared, shining brightly.
This treasure sword has an ancient and simple shape, bright as autumn water, with mysterious stripes flashing on it. The stripes twist and turn continuously, as if they are about to come alive.
"Frost Light Sword, a low-grade treasure!" Li Chen Dong and the others were shocked, never expecting that Jiao Yun Fei actually possessed a precious low-grade treasure sword.
Although the Divine Boundary can drive the law treasure, most of the first-order cultivators of the Divine Boundary still cannot get in. It seems that Jiaoyun Fei's status in the Donghua Sect is not low, or she has gained the favor of the founder of the Donghua Sect.
Everyone was overjoyed, and the magic treasure was divided into four grades: lower, middle, upper, and extreme. However, even a lower-grade magic treasure had extremely powerful might, it seemed that Blood Puppet Poison King was doomed.
Jiao Yunfei's pretty face was illuminated by the cold light of the sword, turning it a snowy white. She let out a loud cry and poured all her energy into the sword, causing it to emit a dazzling cold light. A sharp, unparalleled sword aura burst forth from the tip of the sword, and with one swing, it whizzed towards Blood Puppet Poison King.
Xue Kui didn't expect Jiao Yunfei to have a treasure, and he was shocked. His divine body quickly rotated upwards to avoid the sharp sword.
But the other divine transcendence cultivators couldn't let go of this rare opportunity, and they rushed up one after another, unleashing several powerful divine abilities that mixed with the Innate True Fire, completely sealing off all escape routes for the Blood Puppet Poison King.
"Get out!" Blood Puppet Poison King was enraged, and with a wave of his divine thought power, he forcibly pushed away Li Chen Dong, Xuan Lingzi, and Zhan Lie, who were rushing up. However, it was already too late. The sword's blade flashed, cutting off his body at the waist, instantly splitting him into two segments.
"Great job, Jiao Shi Mei!" Sun Ming Sheng shouted excitedly.
Other divine transcendence cultivators also showed joy on their faces. The Blood Puppet Poison King had already suffered heavy losses, and this time he was hit again. Even if it were a divine thought body, it would probably have no more combat power.
On the ground, the disciples were even more surprised, clenched their fists, and almost shouted in unison.
However, unexpectedly, there was no painful expression on the face of Blood Puppet King. Only his upper body floated in mid-air, and his complexion suddenly filled with an extremely terrifying expression, looking exceptionally ferocious.
Everyone was stunned at once, unexpectedly like this, even Blood Puppet Poison King did not die.
"You bunch of damned ants!" Blood Shadow Emperor said word by word.
The black stripes on his face changed rapidly, instantly breaking away and forming countless drifting black ribbons. These black ribbons seemed to have a consciousness of their own, automatically combining in mid-air to form a several-meter-high black pagoda.
The black pagoda glowed with a fluorescent light, and on its surface were engraved countless stripes that resembled human faces, looking vivid and lifelike, as if they were emitting an eerie and silent smile, sending shivers down one's spine.
The pagoda quickly wrapped the Blood Puppet King inside, and a terrifying aura burst out from the tower.
The air shook, as if even space was shaken, layer upon layer of visible waves rippled from the tower, that unmatched power, impacting the eight divine cultivators to retreat continuously.
"This is terrible, it's the inferior treasure of the Poison Tower, which can produce countless poisonous substances. We must attack quickly, otherwise let the Blood Puppet Poison King transform into a terrifying creature comparable to a divine being, and we will all die without a place to bury our bodies." Xuanlingzi's face changed greatly, shouting loudly.
The other cultivators of the Divine Path changed color and rushed forward one after another.
Jiao Yunfei raised the Cold Light Sword, pouring his innate Qi into the treasure tool as if he was risking his life. He urged the sword light to its extreme, like holding up a bright moon, and leapt high into the air. With three successive sword slashes, he fiercely chopped down at the Poison Transformation Tower.
The sword light was overwhelming, rushing forth with a fierce radiance that occupied everyone's field of vision, making people feel as if they were about to be torn apart by the intense pain.
Compared with this sword light, other magical powers and skills are dull and lose their luster.
A sword light cut after another on the black tower, the sound shook heaven and earth, the poisonous tower suddenly violently trembled, issuing a cracking sound that could not bear the weight, as if it could not withstand the power of the cold light sword.
Suddenly, a strong suction force emanated from the tower, frantically absorbing the surrounding dark fog while neutralizing the unparalleled sword energy of the Frost Sword.
Although they are both low-grade magic treasures, the strength of the person using them also determines the high and low of the magic treasure's power.
As the dark fog was sucked into the tower, the Huálóng Tower also gradually stabilized, and the sword's edge completely turned dull. Then the tower body swelled up, becoming ten zhang high, suspended in mid-air. In the remaining dust-like black mist, a terrifying image of the Diyu Pagoda emerged.
Jiao Yunfei's face was as pale as paper, continuously driving the Cold Light Sword, had consumed most of her innate Qi, for a moment her physical strength was empty, and she couldn't even stand steadily in mid-air, directly falling down.
Several female disciples of Donghua rushed up to support her.
"Very well, you can now rest assured that I will refine you!" The cold voice of the Blood Puppet Poison King echoed within the Refining Tower.
A dark energy burst out from the top of the Poison Tower. However, it did not disperse but instead kept changing and quickly formed a giant centipede.
This gecko was about a foot in size, its entire body pitch black, with an ominous gaze scanning the crowd, looking incredibly ferocious.
"Attack the Poison Tower, he and the Poison Tower are one, attacking the Poison Tower is attacking him! Otherwise, he will continuously produce poison, poisoning us all to death, hurry!" Xuanlingzi shouted hoarsely.
He took another step forward, about to rush towards the poisonous tower, but the poisonous lizard had already condensed its body, its long poisonous tongue rolled up, and with a flash of lightning, it wrapped around Xuans' ankle from several feet away.
Xuanlingzi had no choice but to stop in his tracks and strike out with several strands of pre-heavenly true fire, striking open the poisonous tongue.
This dark energy condensed toad may not be a living thing, but it has extremely strong power, and its whole body is highly toxic, even a divine master cannot get close.
Li Chen Dong and others were anxious, their innate Qi and various divine abilities striking out from a distance, attacking the Detoxification Tower like an overwhelming storm.
However, the poisonous tower spewed out waves of black fog, intercepting all these attacks and dissolving them instantly into nothingness.
At this time, the top of the tower spewed out a cluster of black air again, beginning to condense and change. However, the poisonous substance that transformed this time was much faster than the toad earlier. In the blink of an eye, a ferocious centipede had taken shape, spitting out toxic gas while baring its teeth and claws as it pounced towards the other divine transcendence cultivators.
Li Chen Dong and others were furious, but they were forced to be busy by the two black auras transformed into poisonous substances. This kind of highly toxic creature, even if it was them, did not dare to touch, can only attack from a distance, and could not help but be afraid.
Jin Dazhao and Zhan Lihao finally found an opening, leapt into the air, and pounced on Huadu Tower, about to launch a close-range attack.
But the black fog around the tower suddenly started spinning, and in the midst of the spin, like a violent storm, countless highly toxic liquid droplets suddenly shot towards the two.
Jin Dazhao's face changed greatly, his energy sank to his dantian, and he fell straight down to the ground. Fortunately, at the critical moment, he managed to expel all the toxic fluids from his body, and almost simultaneously broke out in a cold sweat.
The top of the poisonous tower suddenly spewed out three black gases at the same time, transforming into a spider, a giant black snake and a huge scorpion, blocking Fan Yun, Li Chen Dong and Sang Furen who were about to rush up again.
Several people's hearts sank instantly, the Poison Tower had already transformed into five poisonous creatures, each of which was comparable to a first-rank Grandmaster, it seemed that today would be difficult to escape.
The Tower of Poison is about to produce its sixth poison.
Swish! A fierce and unparalleled cold light shot up from the ground, instantly cutting off the dark energy, then with an unstoppable powerful killing intent, it broke through the thick black fog, heavily chopping at the Poison Tower, it was Sun Ming Sheng.
It turned out that he had just fallen to the ground and took the Cold Light Sword from Jiao Yunfei's hand, then used all his strength to kill those who came up.
