Chapter 1071: You Tricked Me
Black fog covered the earth. It was dark and deep, and the aura of death was dense. It was like a ferocious beast had come from ancient times and was going to selectively devour its prey.
Violent winds swept up the sand. Grain by grain, they connected such that the world seemed to be covered with a thin layer of yellow gauze. As it interweaved with the black fog, it formed a special scene.
This dangerous place was many times worse than the living environment of the Big Ruins. Although the Big Ruins had also become a dead land because of the battle between the Dragons and the Phoenixes, there were still living beings there. Not only were there bloodlines left behind by the Dragons and the Phoenixes, but there were also many humans. On the other hand, this place was simply dead silent.
Within the black fog, Ou Yangming had a flash of thought, and he softly uttered, “The path of Yin and Yang—using Yang to transform Yin.”
As the voice filled his mind, a shocking scene appeared. His body darkened bit by bit. It was strange and ominous. Black fog spread out from his pores and enveloped his body. Following that, the hair on the young fellow’s body, fingers, and arms turned into a ball of black fog. There was no longer any sign of life from him. A strong wind blew over at this time. The black fog rolled with the wind and drifted forward. At this moment, he had entered a mysterious state, where his mind spread with the black fog and covered several kilometers.
Of course, this was because he had the spiritual world of the Phoenixes, which made his mental power incredibly powerful.
Nonetheless, the most important thing was the difference in his level of life. Ever since he fused the bloodlines of the Dragons, the Phoenixes, and the Upper Tribulations, he had reached a new life level.
This was also the most important reason he could fight beyond his level. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to do that just by relying on the power of laws.
Ou Yangming transformed into black fog. He was neither happy nor sad as he had completely fused into this world.
He looked at the white clouds in the sky and thought to himself, ‘When white clouds disperse, it means death. When leaves fall, it means death. When flowers wither, it means death. When clouds gather, it means life. When withered branches sprout, it means life. When flowers bloom, it means life. In life, there’s death, and in death, there’s life. Life and death are intertwined. It’s like a circle without a single flaw. This is reincarnation, and it’s also destiny. All living things—even Rulers—can’t escape from reincarnation. Reincarnation is everywhere.’
Looking at the ever-changing clouds, as well as the collapse of mountains and rivers, Ou Yangming scratched the surface of the path of reincarnation’s essence.
All of a sudden, a figure appeared in his senses. It was several kilometers away, but it was still very clear.
“Long Xiao?” Ou Yangming thought for a moment and understood what Long Xiao and Long Ting were thinking. He sneered and said, “I’ll kill you first...” At this time, he was hiding in the dark. If the timing was right, he would indeed stand a chance to severely injure Long Xiao.
If news about this spread out, the entire Great Wide World would surely be shaken.
It was one thing for a Venerable One to be chased by 4 Rulers and escaped, but Ou Yangming actually dared to act rashly by having killing intent and wanting to launch a sneak attack from the dark. What was this if not a fairy tale?
The person that Ou Yangming wanted to launch a sneak attack on was a Ruler, after all. A single punch from a Ruler could change Heaven and Earth, and the life force within several kilometers would be cut off.
Even in the Dragons and the Phoenixes, where there were many powerhouses, Rulers were ultimate powerhouses that were close to the peak.
The storm raged, and the black fog swept into the distance.
Long Xiao did not know that a great crisis was approaching him. At this time, his tyrannical mental power was released and covered several kilometers from him. It was like a walking radar. Even the slightest change would not be able to escape his perception.
“Hmph, you made me spend so much effort. Once I catch you, I’ll make you wish you were dead.” He snorted coldly and took in a light breath of air. A Ruler was defeated by a Venerable One in one move. This was simply a humiliation—a great humiliation. Besides, he was humiliated twice by Ou Yangming.
Long Xiao was not broad-minded, to begin with. He was petty and would seek revenge for the smallest grievances. The hatred had been piled up to the point that his heart could not take it anymore.
The sky and the ground were exceptionally dark. Without warning, a black cloud floated toward Long Xiao along with a violent wind. His heart instinctively tensed up. He raised his wrist and directly dispersed the cloud with his spiritual power.
He thought to himself, ‘What’s going on? How could a black cloud give me a sense of danger?’ At his level, every instinctive sense must have a cause and effect. To be safe, he did not hesitate and raised his hand to disperse the black cloud.
‘As expected of a Ruler,’ Ou Yangming lamented internally when he sensed this.
Earlier, he had only merged a wisp of his will into the black cloud, but it was dispersed by Long Xiao before it reached the dragon powerhouse.
Ou Yangming knew he could not alert the enemy again. If such a situation were to happen again, the monster that had lived for 1,000 years would certainly be alert. It would be difficult for him to launch a sneak attack again.
In fact, Long Xiao had become extremely vigilant.
He was not tolerant, but he was meticulous. Furthermore, he was well aware that something abnormal must have happened.
Therefore, if such a situation occurred again, he would inform Long Ting without any hesitation.
After half a day, the sky had darkened.
The starlights were blocked by the black fog in this land, so they were faintly discernible.
Long Xiao glanced into the distance, and a puzzled look appeared in his eyes. He muttered to himself, ‘Was I really too sensitive?’?
Although he thought so, he was still cautious, and his heart was in his throat.
At night, the black fog surged. Layer after layer pressed together and with a sudden shake, a 3-kilometers long fog dragon appeared and was especially vivid. The sky shook along with it. A light was also emitted as if it could shake the heavens. Nevertheless, in just an instant, the long fog dragon withered. This was not some kind of magic art, but a natural divine skill. This kind of profundity was indescribable.
Ou Yangming saw this in his mind, and a hint of confusion flashed in his heart. After a moment, a voice sounded in his mind.
“Condensed fog is life; dispersed fog is death.”
The voice was very subtle at first but after a moment, it sounded like a chime of a bell and a drum. It struck down with waves of thunder and grew louder, stirring up heaven-shaking waves. It became the only voice in Ou Yangming’s mind.
“Dispersed fog is death?” His mind was blank.
With a flash of thought, the wisp of black fog dissipated.
What dissipated was the fog, and what condensed was his will. Ou Yangming slowly approached in this peculiar and indescribable form.
333 meters, 33 meters...
As he got closer, a wisp of black fog swept over from the horizon.
Without warning, a never-before-seen crisis appeared in Long Xiao’s mind. The intensity of this crisis had reached its peak. It could dry up his body and blood at the same time, and destroy his soul and spirit as well. As long as he was slightly careless, the fruit of his path that he had painstakingly cultivated for hundreds and thousands of years would vanish into thin air and become a stepping stone for others on their path of cultivation.
Long Xiao let out a strange cry. At this moment, the strength of a Ruler was displayed.
He tapped his interspatial bag with his right hand. A white light lit up, and a seven-colored light screen quickly took shape.
Long Xiao was fast, but Ou Yangming was even faster....
A long spear that was overflowing with cold light rumbled, and the black fog shattered with a bang. Unknowingly, Ou Yangming had condensed his body, and he aimed the Dragon Slayer at Long Xiao’s chest. With a sliding step, the distance between them was closed up. Before the light screen had formed, the young fellow stabbed out with his spear!
This attack contained Taotie’s Devouring Power. It would be fine if that was all, but the Solitary Thought Skill’s tearing power was hidden in the dark. As long as it pierced into Long Xiao’s body, his body would completely explode. With one suction and one explosion, even an emperor realm expert would definitely be heavily injured, and might even die directly.
After becoming a top-grade Venerable One, Ou Yangming would be able to transform the various powers he had mastered with each other, and he would truly be able to go back to basics!
In the blink of an eye, Long Xiao knew it would be too late to set up any more defenses.
His face twisted together, and a ruthless and decisive aura emanated from his body.
Without any movement from him, the light screen that had yet to be formed shattered.
A long saber slid out from his sleeve. It was a meter long and 2 fingers wide. It was pitch-black, deep, and demonic. There was a Blood Dragon carved on it, and its eyes were bloodshot. The long saber shook slightly, and the air in front of it compressed rapidly, turning into a white dot that exploded with a bang. This was a magic weapon!
Long Xiao clenched the long saber with his fingers and with a flash of cold light, he stabbed at Ou Yangming’s chest.
Since he could not dodge, he would fight head-on. He would exchange injuries for injuries and live in the face of death.
His eyes seemed to be shrouded in a bloody mist. Instead of retreating, he advanced and said coldly, “You actually dare to compete with me in terms of ruthlessness. Let’s see who’s more ruthless.”
Ou Yangming did not reply. Despite that, the bloody light in his eyes intensified, and his feet moved even faster. At the same time, he hid the Ancient Dragon Shield in his sleeve.
“Boom...” The Blood Spear Dragon Slayer’s tip surged with red light, and the runes on it jumped. Without any obstruction, it directly pierced into Long Xiao’s body and exploded! A tyrannical Devouring Power and sharp tearing force burst out at the same time. In an instant, the dragon powerhouse’s internal organs were torn to shreds. Having said that, he smiled grimly and stared at the long saber that left his hand, only to see a black light shooting straight toward Ou Yangming’s chest.
He muttered, “Competing with me in terms of ruthlessness? You’re courting death!”
Of course, he had a reason for doing so. This was because Ou Yangming was only a Venerable One. As long as the young fellow’s heart turned into powder, even if he did not die, he would no longer have any fighting strength.
On the other hand, Long Xiao was a Ruler. His self-healing ability was much stronger. At his level, even if his physical body was destroyed, there was still a possibility of it being rebuilt. Furthermore, if he could take the opportunity to possess Ou Yangming’s physical body and cultivate for another 100 years, who would be able to defeat him?
Therefore, he was willing to take the gamble.
The black light pierced through the air like a black lightning bolt.
‘It’s done, it’s done!’ Long Xiao growled in his mind when he saw this.
That said, just as the long saber was about to penetrate Ou Yangming’s flesh and blood, a palm-sized turtle shell flashed with light. The patterns on the shell instantly lit up and blocked the long saber. A strong intent burst out, and the saber seemed to be entangled by an invisible thread, unable to advance any further.
“No...” Long Xiao screamed shrilly, and a hint of despair appeared in his eyes. Blood flowed out as well.
His voice sounded like it came from hell, and it was cold. “You... You... You tricked me?”
Ou Yangming rolled up his long sleeves. With the excellent idea of fighting people at their weaknesses, the Blood Spear Dragon Slayer was slashed sideways. An innocent look appeared on his face, and he sighed. “You’re the one who wants to compete with me in terms of ruthlessness?” As he spoke, his body flashed, and he pounced forward.
Long Xiao’s internal organs were destroyed. Ever since he became a Ruler, he had never been in such a sorry state.
He forcefully gathered his Qi and adjusted his Qi momentum. He dragged his body and took a step back. At this moment, dense cracks appeared on his body. They interweaved into a web, making him look like porcelain that could break at any time. Besides, the Blood Spear Dragon Slayer was like maggots that were attached to a bone. It was ethereal, agile, and unpredictable, making it difficult for him to escape. He suddenly fell into a dangerous situation like walking on knife tips or in a sea of fire.
