Chapter 1070: Only I Can Take Your Life
"First, I’ll cripple half of your realm!"
What a bold statement, considering that the Monkey and Venerable Ghost Nether are both strong at the Innate Emperor Realm Second Heaven. Even in the same realm, it’s impossible to know who will win or lose, yet the Monkey openly declared he would first cripple Venerable Ghost Nether.
This kind of brazen energy is probably unmatched, except for those few members of the Jiang Family!
Venerable Ghost Nether squinted slightly: "If you all came at me together, I might be somewhat cautious. But you alone?"
"Then let’s give it a try!"
The Monkey smiled at Liu Zixuan: "Stand aside with your eyes wide open, today I’ll show you all how my Nine Wolves Original Technique easily defeats opponents in the same realm!"
Liu Zixuan pressed his lips and retreated to the side with Jiang Yunxuan. He had some understanding of Jiang Yifan, but that was only superficial. The true deep-sea-like strength had never been encountered.
So, this is definitely an excellent opportunity.
The Monkey flexed his fists and kicks, bending his legs slightly, and with leopard-like explosive power, he suddenly leaped forward, charging at Venerable Ghost Nether like a hungry wolf.
Venerable Ghost Nether sneered: "I’ve heard before that you wolf cubs are quite powerful. Today, this old man wants to learn from you, see my Ghost Doctor’s Seven Poisons."
"Playing with poison in front of me?"
The Monkey’s movements were extraordinarily agile, just like his name, akin to a real monkey. He directly reached out and grabbed Venerable Ghost Nether’s raised arm, and before the colorful smoke could spread, his left hand suddenly blocked it.
The moment the colorful smoke scattered, it seemed confined by something. The Monkey shouted loudly, and the direction of the smoke suddenly changed, fleeting towards Venerable Ghost Nether’s face.
Poof!
Poof!
Venerable Ghost Nether couldn’t dodge in time, and the colorful smoke directly entered his body through his mouth and nostrils.
Though he was a master of poison, he couldn’t withstand such domineering poison rushing entirely into his body!
Immediately, his previously dried face oozed some black liquid, extremely unsightly and disgustingly hideous.
The Monkey retreated three steps forcefully, his feet kicked hard against the wall, and two bright beams shot forth from his hands, piercing through Venerable Ghost Nether’s shoulders just as he reacted.
The Monkey landed on the ground, smiled at Liu Zixuan: "In an hour, his realm is now only at the Early Stage of the King Realm, slightly higher than you. If you can’t handle him, it only proves you deserve to die!"
Liu Zixuan smiled speechlessly: "Speaking of battling him, I more wish to restore my strength and fight you!"
The Monkey’s displayed strength shocked Liu Zixuan completely.
Because during the fight with Venerable Ghost Nether, he didn’t use any overly flashy techniques, nor showed extreme realm power, but instead defeated the opponent using an extremely wild yet direct close combat style.
First, he got up close to make Venerable Ghost Nether swallow his own poison, then transformed Inner Strength into Qi to pierce through his shoulder meridians, causing a blockage and making his realm slide down immediately, unable to exert full force.
Such tactics aren’t something ordinary Innate Emperor Realm experts can conceive.
Meanwhile, Liu Zixuan deduced something.
The Monkey, although at Innate Emperor Realm Second Heaven, has already approached the threshold of Innate Emperor Realm Third Heaven.
Once, the old Qing said that at the Third Heaven, one can conceal their cultivation aura, and when true masters duel, it’s often within that momentary strike.
The Monkey mocked: "Alright then, I look forward to the day you regain your strength, but for now... settle things here!"
Saying this, he backed to the door’s position: "The stage is yours next!"
Even before his voice faded, Jiang Yunxuan had already lunged toward the Gu Corpse, eyes filled with intense anger, clearly unable to tolerate such disgusting things.
Liu Zixuan clenched his fist: "It seems your dream of killing me and taking the Ghost Gate Needle to prolong your life won’t come true today!"
Venerable Ghost Nether endured the pain in his shoulders, glanced at the Monkey already stepping out of the room, and said coldly: "Simply relying on others to defeat me, what pride is there?"
"Now, you’re still stronger than me. What if I defeat you on my own without relying on others?" Liu Zixuan mocked and smiled.
Venerable Ghost Nether’s eyes moved: "Liu Zixuan, are you sure you want to beat me alone?"
"Your fate can only be decided by me!" Liu Zixuan pronounced each word carefully.
"Second Gu, fight outside!" Venerable Ghost Nether suddenly ordered the Gu Corpse.
The Gu Corpse obeyed, disregarding the pain all over its body, and smashed the adjacent wall, pulling Jiang Yunxuan outside.
Now, inside the room, only Liu Zixuan and Venerable Ghost Nether remained.
Venerable Ghost Nether suddenly unleashed two Ghost Gate Needles that appeared, shooting towards the sides, followed closely by two black Qi streaks.
Suddenly, Liu Zixuan felt a sense of confinement!
He frowned: "Your Domain of Poison?"
"That’s right!" Venerable Ghost Nether raised his head, stared eerily at Liu Zixuan: "This is my life-bound Domain of Poison, unless that outside Monkey gives half his life, no one will come in here today!"
Venerable Ghost Nether’s meaning was simple, since Liu Zixuan intended to fight him one-on-one, he treated this as a situation of mutual destruction.
Today, if the Monkey barges in, he’d drag Liu Zixuan into death together.
But if the Monkey doesn’t come in, he aims to defeat Liu Zixuan and take remaining Ghost Gate Needles using King Realm Early Stage strength.
As for whether he can escape in the end, that depends on fate!
Liu Zixuan pressed his lips: "It seems you’re willing to stake it all!"
"For survival, I have but one path!" Venerable Ghost Nether’s eyes blazed with rage, staring at Liu Zixuan shouted: "Rest assured, if I can kill you and leave alive, I’ll use the power of the Ghost Gate Needle to its fullest! Then kill everyone you care about, one by one!"
"Daydream!"
Liu Zixuan clenched his fists, and the aura of the Profound Realm Peak suddenly surged upward.
"You’re foolish for not having the Monkey kill me, now with your mere Profound Realm smallness, you’re far from comparing with me!"
Indeed, in Venerable Ghost Nether’s view, Liu Zixuan is the most foolish person, if he had let the Monkey kill him, everything would be resolved today.
But Liu Zixuan insisted on not letting the Monkey act and settling things personally, which undoubtedly gave Venerable Ghost Nether the best chance for decisive retaliation!
King Realm Early Stage, Profound Realm Peak, with a gap of a major realm. Using a life filled with poison and unique Ghost Doctor Skill, Venerable Ghost Nether has absolute confidence in victory!
