Chapter 77 Disguiser
At this moment, Lyu Liang understood what the other party’s plan was; they were actually after the Heaven-Hell Water! It seemed that this guy was no ordinary disciple of Zi Tong Sect. Otherwise, he would not be aware of the secret of this water element. He clearly knew what it was about and had a strong desire to get it! If Lyu Liang couldn’t gain control his body, he would surely perish today!
Therefore, inside the Divine Soul, Lyu Liang and Black were communicating urgently with each other.
“Black! Is there any way for me to temporarily suppress the sealing power of the Crystal Pearl! If I were to die in this way, it would be so unworthy!”
“The Crystal Pearl is very troublesome. The strength of the sealing power is very strong in the day and it will weaken only at night. That is why you can only regain consciousness in the night. If you are forced to change now, it is fine, but the duration will be too short. You won’t even have a chance to escape!”
“How short is it? Will there be about thirty minutes of time?”
“Less than a breath’s time!”
“…”
Lyu Liang was utterly speechless. This was too short; there wasn’t even enough time to launch a devil thunder attack!
Qi Yuantian took out a black vial engraved with “卍” and held it carefully in his hand. His eyes had a respectful look and he told the two people with him, “This will be an eye opener for you! This was given to me by the milord, the Extraordinary beast that can absorb the five elements, the Five-elements Leech!”
When he finished speaking, he opened the cork. Lights flashed and the next moment, a long silver worm about the length of an index finger, appeared on the head of Dumb Kid.
In his Divine Soul, Lyu Liang suddenly felt a shudder, as if something was being drained from his body!
“Don’t panic. It is sucking out the Heaven-Hell Water that is in your body. It doesn’t matter if the water is sucked away. Anyway, you will regain it after soaking in the pool. Looking at this speed, it should take an hour. We’d better hurry and think about what to do as this guy obviously does not intend to let you live!” Black’s tone was severe and Lyu Liang was also very depressed. This feeling of wanting to kill but not having the strength to carry it out was so awful!
…
Time seemed to pass very slowly at this moment, inside the colorful barrier.
“Ying’er, what’s wrong? Your aura has been messy all this while; do you have anything on your mind?”
“Ah? Mas, Master, I want to go and check on Dumb Kid to see if he is still at the entrance at the back of the mountain. I suddenly have this premonition, as if something bad is going to happen.”
“Oh? This is strange. Do you have a mind-soul connection with him? Anyway, I am done here. Let’s go now.”
Subsequently, the Master and the disciple disappeared in the barrier space.
…
At this time, Lyu Liang could only stare at the three hopelessly and Black had lost his usual calm manner and was getting noticeably anxious.
“Senior brother Qi, how much longer will this take? I am afraid that Master will find out about this and rush over to check. In that case, we will all be in big trouble!” Ji Chang frowned and asked in a gruff voice.
Qi Yuantian gazed with pride at the sight of Dumb Kid lying on the ground and answered without turning his head, “Junior Brother, I do not want to lecture you! From this moment, we are no longer disciples of Zi Tong Sect and you don’t have to respect that white-haired old woman anymore. We are almost there! It will be done in about thirty minutes. We will make it!”
Suddenly, a tiny golden light that was almost invisible, stealthily integrated into the body of Dumb Kid.
Lyu Liang and Black who were both frowning, suddenly felt their spirits lifting. They looked at each other in surprise. Because, at this moment, Lyu Liang felt that he had regained control of his body!
At the same time, beside his Gold Core, a little gray streamer appeared. As for why the Crystal Pearl had suddenly lost its power, Lyu Liang had no time to think of that. At this moment, the Five-element Leech had been returned to the bottle in the hands of Qi Yuantian. Apparently, the task had been completed.
“Haha, it’s done! The task assigned to me by the milord is completed! The day for us to stand out has finally arrived! Dumb Kid, go and die!” Qi Yuantian raised his head and laughed loudly and suddenly, there was a violent, murderous outburst from his body. He lifted a leg and gave Dumb Kid a direct kick that sent him flying about 88 feet away! Later, he held a long sword and mustered all his strength to make it swerve. A dazzling sword light whizzed out and flew towards Dumb Kid.
“Let’s see if you can still cause so much trouble even when you are in a coma!” Qi Yuantian seemed to be eagerly anticipating the destruction of Dumb Kid’s body and the corner of his mouth lifted in a sneer.
Suddenly everything changed! Dumb Kid, who had been lying motionless on the ground, suddenly rolled away to avoid the sword light. He raised his hand and a long silver sword flew into the air. Then, like a flying arrow, he rushed towards Qi Yuantian. The blast of the shot had replaced his usual stupid and innocent look!
“Senior brother, be careful!” Ji Chang shouted a warning to Qi Yuantian, as he looked on in horror.
Qi Yuantian was stunned and had yet to recover from this change of scene. When Dumb Kid was about twenty-two feet away from him, his eyes shrunk and moved sideways. However, it was too late; he was already shrouded by the curtain of sword lights above him and it came down on him immediately.
Lyu Liang came up and exercised the Sword Control Formation. At the same time, dozens of giant swords surrounded the other three people in the field. It was the Tranquility Sword Essence!
Then, countless numbers of sword flowers drifted down and Lyu Liang chased after Qi Yuantian. The Devil Immortal Qi was the one that had triggered all his moves and that was after the motivation of Ghost Devil Head.
Lyu Liang had used all his ace moves. He had to, because the opponents consisted of three people whose cultivation levels were all higher than his, especially Qi Yuantian who was at the Early-stage of Nascent Soul. He had to weaken or kill the opponents before they recovered.
Another important reason was that he really didn’t know how long his conscious state could last. If he suddenly became Dumb Kid again, then he would surely die!
Looking at Dumb Kid who had suddenly reached the Middle-stage of Nascent Soul, the faces of the three people reflected incredulity. How could this person be a mentally ill idiot! No matter how they looked at it, Dumb Kid seemed like a superior person who had been through a lot of battles!
Qi Yuantian panicked. Besides using a cyan shield and desperately resisting the endless Sword Qi, he had no power to fight back. Even so, there were already a few injuries on his body.
The sword formation that was constantly rushing down would form a shock wave whenever it slashed downwards. Qi Yuantian, who was defending his upper body had to split his mind to protect his lower body too. This way, he could not defend himself well.
As for Ji Chang, he was surprised. Although he resisted the numerous Sword Qi that fell, he seemed to be more relaxed. His thoughts drifted and he was obviously thinking hard. Suddenly, he looked up into the distance, gritted his teeth and it looked like he had come to a decision.
As for the fat guy Zhong, when Lyu Liang threw out the Feiling Sword and triggered the Sword Control Formation, he took out a Talisman, pasted it on himself and vanished immediately.
At this time, a strong aura could be felt. Lyu Liang was happy because with his Divine Sense, he knew that it belonged to the silver-haired Zi Tong Fairy! Of course, a highly anxious Yang Ying was close behind her.
Apparently, Qi Yuantian and Ji Chang knew who was coming and their faces were terrified. In the end, Qi Yuantian gritted his teeth and after escaping another wave of the sword formation, he flashed and escaped.
Ji Chang sighed softly and in a blink of an eye, he and Qi Yuantian were together. He took out a Talisman, crushed it and then the two vanished from sight.
Before Lyu Liang could chase after them, he suddenly felt dizzy. He sighed bitterly and then fell to the ground. .
Inside the Divine Soul, Black said, “The timing of your recovery and fainting is just perfect! If I wasn’t here the whole time to witness everything, I would think that you deliberately controlled it!”
Lyu Liang pondered and said, “Fainting is good, it gives me time to think carefully about all that had happened. Also, for that golden light and this little streamer, if I am not wrong, an expert helped me to pass this test. However, I am unfamiliar with the Pangu Origin world and I really can’t remember which senior has done this favour for me.”
At this point, Zi Tong Fairy and Yang Yin appeared beside Dumb Kid. When she saw Dumb Kid who was lying on the ground with his eyes closed, his shirt in tatters and his face swollen, Yang Ying could no longer control herself. She rushed to him and helped him up and tears rolled down her cheeks.
When her tears fell on Dumb Kid’s face, he seemed to sense something and frowned. He opened his eyes slowly. When he saw Yang Ying, his eyes had a happy look, then he appeared to be aggrieved and he suddenly cried, “Ying’er, Ying’er, I am sorry, I didn’t mean to disobey you. It is Fatty, he wanted to bring me to get your favorite Forgetful Flower, so I followed him. But, but he lied to me. They beat me up, but I am not afraid of death; I am only afraid of not seeing you again…”
Like a child, Dumb cried piteously and he was vaguely muttering words like, “Ying’er, I am sorry, I will be obedient the next time.” In the end, his crying became softer and softer, and when Yang Ying looked at him, he had fallen asleep.
Yang Ying burst into tears and caressing the head of Dumb Kid, she whispered, “Ying’er promises that I will protect you in the future. Since you regard me as your Ying’er, as long as you are still Dumb Kid, I am your Ying’er…”
Zi Tong Fairy sighed, waved her hand and the three disappeared.
…
Away from Zi Tong Sect, in a forest, two figures appeared abruptly; they were Qi Yuantian and Ji Chang.
“Senior brother, what do we do next? We can’t go back to Zi Tong Sect anymore, but fortunately, you have the Heaven-Hell Water; does this mean our task is complete? Shall we go directly to the force that you mentioned!” Looking at Qi Yuantian, Ji Chang seemed to be waiting for his response.
Qi Yuantian’s injuries were not very serious. At this moment, he lowered his head and pondered on something. When he heard Ji Chang’s words, his eyes flashed with a trace of malice. Then he smiled and asked, “Junior Brother, how do I usually treat you?”
“Ah? Senior brother treats me very well. I used to be stuck at the bottleneck of the Peak of Foundation Establishment and senior brother helped me to get a Bottleneck-breaking Pill!” Ji Chang obviously felt strange when he heard this abrupt question.
“Oh, in that case, you shall help me! I will offer the Heaven-Hell Water to the force and take all the credit! The reward will definitely be more than if it had been the two of us making the offer! Junior Brother, am I right?” Before he finished speaking, a sword light flashed and Ji Chang’s head landed on the ground. Qi Yuantian was holding a long sword in his hands and laughing.
But soon, his laughter stopped because Ji Chang who had just had his head lopped off, was still standing upright. There was no blood where his neck that had been cut off and no trace of his soul escaping either. The head that has fallen to the ground was looking at Qi Yuantian with a sarcastic look.
“You, you, how did you…” Qi Yuantian was shocked as Ji Chang’s head gave him a cold look and he felt a shiver in his heart.
“Oh, oh. Should I be proud of myself?” “Or should I be sad for myself? You are only a puppet I made and yet, you have evolved to such a stage! It seems that my puppet’s secret methods are comparable to that of the Master! A venomous voice sounded behind Qi Yuantian.
Qi Yuantian hurriedly turned around, and then he opened his eyes and mouth wide in horror and his hand holding the sword was trembling.
At this moment, Ji Chang was standing behind him, intact but no longer as chic and lively as before. The only thing left was an aura of intense coldness.
Seeing Qi Yuantian’s look, Ji Chang shook his head slightly, made a snapping sound and said solemnly, “Come on, think about it! Have you ever wondered why I am always with you no matter where you go? I gave you everything, including your memory! There is no Qi Yuantian in the world. You are just a puppet made by me!
At the moment when the snapping noise became louder, Qi Yuantian’s horrified eyes instantly turned into confusion. There was no more life in his body. Looking at it now, it looked like a human-shaped puppet that had lost its functions!
At this time, a tall black-robed man appeared silently beside Ji Chang and his black robe was embroidered with a silver “Mao” word. He whispered, “Since you have succeeded in getting the thing and you have been exposed too, go back to the Black Wind Valley to wait for further orders!”
Ji Chang waved a hand and a small bottle flew out from Qi Yuanti and he kept it. Looking at the black-robed man next to him, he sighed, “Mao Tu, I am not satisfied! Although I got the Heaven-Hell Water, I did not get the secrets of the colorful barrier and the Sect-Protection Formation! It seems that we can only rely on Chen Feng! Let’s go!” At the same time, Qi Yuantian and Ji Chang who had lost his head, turned into dust and drifted away with the wind.
Then a black light flashed, and Ji Chang also turned into someone similar to the black-robed man. He then disappeared with Mao Tu. His black robe was also embroidered with a silver “Zi” word.
…
At the same time, inside a large hall in Central Heaven District, a gray-robed old man was standing in front of a bronze mirror. There was a face in the bronze mirror talking incessantly about something. Looking at it carefully, the face was that of the fat man who had vanished without any trace.
“Master, the Heaven-Hell Water has fallen into the hands of the Ghostly-Fire Twelve Lords, but the amount is limited. It should be quite troublesome for them to refine it. I wanted to make a move after they got the water but there was an unexpected incident, and I couldn’t make a move. Master, please punish me!” Zhong fat man was smiling, but his tone was respectful.
The old man stroked his beard and smiled, “It’s okay, I wanted you to be a bystander initially. It’s right not to act harshly so as not to alert the enemy. The kid that you mentioned intrigues me. If you are already exposed, come back, I will send Shui Ye over and try to get this kid on our side. I have a hunch that he will be the key to stir up the big battle in the future!”
