Berserk God of War

The Nether Lotus Sea Snake inherently possesses the power of body regeneration, allowing it to transform humans into half-beasts.

The Duoye Seal is a skill that combines elements from the Nether Lotus Sea Snake to restore limbs. As long as Venerable Ba Lian grasps a portion of it, she can slice off the engineered serpent parts and regenerate Human Clan features once more.

In addition, understanding more of the Nether Lotus Sea Snake’s meridians.

In this way, given Venerable Ba Lian’s Martial Arts Realm, she can surely develop something unique to herself and escape danger.

Indeed, as soon as Venerable Ba Lian experienced both types of Sikong Jing’s powers, a sharp gleam flashed in her eyes, and without further questioning, she entered a state of Meditation, beginning to circulate her internal True Qi to heal her entire body...

During this period, Sikong Jing of course had to offer suggestions, collaborating with Venerable Ba Lian for restoration.

He also seized this opportunity to hasten his understanding of more meridians of the Nether Lotus Sea Snake.

As they focused on cultivation and transformation, the Nether Lotus Sea Snake’s weakened and distorted head suddenly emerged from the Stone Stool Sky Pattern Treasure. It furiously questioned Sikong Jing, "What on earth are you?"

The Nether Lotus Sea Snake appeared still shaken, daring to reveal only a little from the Stone Stool Magic Box.

But its curiosity about Sikong Jing was overwhelming.

"Shut up for now, there’s no time for your nonsense. If you dare to come out again, I’ll swallow you."

Sikong Jing spoke coldly, realizing that Venerable Ba Lian’s transformation was nearly complete and that his delayed arrival might have spelled doom.

Now, Sikong Jing didn’t want any interruptions, so he harshly shooed the Nether Lotus Sea Snake away, intending to deal with it after helping Venerable Ba Lian and eventually unravel the Stone Stool Sky Pattern Treasure later...

...

At the stroke of midnight, at the Ba You Restaurant in Batian Outer City.

Yao Yulou arrived, wiping away his tears and returning to his original demeanor. With his resolve made, there was nothing to hold him back. He entered a private room in the restaurant and met with Qian Ta.

He respectfully bowed deeply to Qian Ta and said, "Master of Dark Tower, I have arrived, and Sikong Jing has not discovered it."

Qian Ta fixated on Yao Yulou for a moment and then said softly, "Stand up, you did well and didn’t let me down."

Now that Yao Yulou had come, he was not a traitor.

After Yao Yulou rose, Qian Ta casually stated, "The task to assassinate Sikong Jing within three days is temporarily canceled."

As these words unfolded, Yao Yulou’s eyes widened in joyful surprise. Would he not need to take risks after all?

However, Qian Ta then coldly added, "Tomorrow, Sikong Jing will be taken by us, so there’s no need for you to assassinate him. You’d better pray he shows up for you tomorrow."

These words were like a bucket of cold water pouring over Yao Yulou’s head...

Tomorrow, Sikong Jing surely would appear, but he certainly would not be taken by you. Sikong Jing planned to attend tomorrow’s negotiation on his own terms. Then, all you’ll end with is disappointment.

By that time, his so-called assassination mission would assuredly continue.

"Now stay with me and wait for the dawn." Qian Ta had Yao Yulou sit and called for servants to bring food and wine, and then they quietly awaited the sunrise.

Finally, dawn broke...

Suddenly, a heavy voice boomed from outside Overlord City: "Murong Jianyun, I am Pei Yuguang from Qianwang Holy Tower. Come out immediately to greet us and explain yourself to Qianwang Holy Tower and the world..."

With the appearance of this voice... whoosh!

The entire Overlord City was abuzz, for Pei Yuguang’s voice encompassed the whole city, carrying the formidable presence of the Second Emperor of Thousand Kings.

Countless strong figures within Overlord City opened their eyes and rose one after another...

They issued orders to their disciples to be ready to head to the gates of Batian Inner City to witness this negotiation.

Everyone knew Pei Yuguang would never dare enter the perilous Batian Inner City.

Therefore, the negotiation would surely take place at the site where Pei Xie was killed yesterday.

Numerous people flocked toward the direction of Batian Inner City.

Meanwhile, Murong Jianyun’s voice also echoed from the Inner City: "Pei Yuguang of Qianwang, I’ve explained sufficiently to countless people yesterday. There’s no need to say more."

"Of course, if you wish to issue a challenge, then feel free to enter the city. Murong Jianyun will be waiting here."

This strong attitude rendered many... breathless.

Each one took a deep breath, imagining the imminent scene to be terrifying, but would Pei Yuguang dare enter the city?

"Surely he will, or else it would be a disgrace," someone murmured.

Indeed, at the next moment, Pei Yuguang’s voice spread throughout the city...

"Issue a challenge? Hahaha, then I shall do so."

"I’d like to see if Murong Jianyun dares to accept, and what excuse you will fabricate to deny that you’re demons."

Having said that... boom!

Pei Yuguang led the envoy team of Qianwang Holy Tower directly into the city. He naturally needed a grand scene to demonstrate the might of Qianwang Holy Tower, certainly needing to uphold a moral high ground...

As the envoy team entered, more people thronged toward the direction of Batian Inner City.

At Ba You Restaurant...

Qian Ta suddenly extended his hand to Yao Yulou and said, "Give me a Message Bird, I should send a message to Sikong Jing."

With that, Yao Yulou complied without hesitation...

Once the message was sent, Qian Ta took Yao Yulou and stealthily left Ba You Restaurant. They were, of course, going to join the envoy team of Qianwang Holy Tower. The most thrilling moment was about to unfold.

...

Inside Teng Mansion’s small secret realm, Sikong Jing slowly withdrew his hand from Venerable Ba Lian’s back.

He exhaled lightly...

"Venerable Ba Lian, you have no issues for now."

"As long as you continue cultivating, you will soon restore to your original state, and you will also solidify your position in the second Great Realm of the Holy Martial Stage, becoming the top expert of Overlord Commerce."

Upon hearing these words, Venerable Ba Lian did not respond but merely nodded slightly.

She now was at a critical juncture, focusing all her attention on cultivation and reverting to Human Clan...

Then, Sikong Jing glanced at the Stone Stool Sky Pattern Treasure and said, "Venerable Ba Lian, now that it’s daytime, I have important things to do, concerning... well, something crucial."

"So, to prevent the Nether Lotus Sea Snake from attacking you again from the Stone Stool, may I take the Stone Stool away?"

He initially intended to mention life-and-death matters of Overlord Commerce.

But quickly retracted, recognizing this wasn’t the time to divert Venerable Ba Lian’s focus. Were she aware that Qianwang’s envoys were entering the city, it would disrupt her training.

Now that daylight had come, the envoys might already be entering the city.

There simply wasn’t time to intimidate the Nether Lotus Sea Snake, so Sikong Jing had to take the Stone Stool first.

Venerable Ba Lian naturally had no objections. She nodded firmly and then fully entered into a state of Meditation.

Thus, Sikong Jing took away the Stone Stool Sky Pattern Treasure and then left Teng Mansion’s small secret realm.
