Chapter 1470: Chapter 758: No Admittance for Outsiders
“Kid, taste the agony of the Ten Thousand Poison Heart!”
The poisonous smoke rolled in, emitting a pungent stench, withering the surrounding vegetation in an instant.
Gu Sheng stood at the center of the toxic smoke, yet his expression remained unchanged.
“Mere Earth Martial Realm, and you dare act presumptuously before me.”
He grasped the air with his right hand, and a semi-transparent Qi Sword formed in his palm.
The sword’s blade was crystal clear, yet it emanated a heart-stopping sharpness.
“Beichen Immortal Slaying Sword!”
Gu Sheng let out a soft shout, and the Qi Sword in his hand slashed down fiercely.
In an instant, a dozen Sword Qi burning with golden flames appeared out of thin air, shooting towards the surroundings like meteors.
“Puff, puff, puff…”
The sound of Sword Qi piercing through flesh echoed continuously.
Seven black-clad Martial Artists didn’t even have time to scream before their bodies were pierced by the golden Sword Qi.
More terrifying was the flames attached to those Sword Qi which instantly incinerated their flesh, leaving not even ashes behind.
The Blood Centipede Guardian’s pupils shrunk abruptly, the sneer on his face frozen.
“This… this is impossible!”
Gu Sheng’s gaze was icy, the sword’s edge turned, and the remaining Sword Qi redirected to slaughter the Blood Centipede Guardian.
“Old poisonous creature, it’s your turn.”
The Blood Centipede Guardian retreated in panic, but those Sword Qi were faster, catching up with him in the blink of an eye.
“No…”
Three Sword Qi pierced through the Blood Centipede Guardian’s chest, the golden flames enveloped him instantly.
His body twisted and burned in the flames, finally turning into a pile of ashes scattered in the wind.
Gu Sheng retracted the Qi Sword, exhaling gently.
“It’s done.”
However, just at this moment, the Innate Spirit Embryo within him suddenly issued a warning.
“Be careful! That’s not the true body!”
Gu Sheng’s heart tightened, almost instinctively dodging to the left.
“Whoosh…”
A black curved blade slashed past his right shoulder, bringing up a spray of fresh blood.
If not for his timely dodge, that blade would have pierced his heart.
“Your reaction is quick.”
A cold voice echoed behind Gu Sheng.
Gu Sheng spun around abruptly, seeing the Blood Centipede Guardian standing there unscathed, a curved blade in his hand dripping with blood.
The “Blood Centipede Guardian” that had been burned to ashes earlier had now turned into a piece of talisman paper completely consumed by flames, falling to the ground.
“Substitute Talisman?”
Gu Sheng squinted his eyes.
The Blood Centipede Guardian sneered.
“That’s right, it’s the ‘Illusion Centipede Substitute Talisman’ of my Five Poison Divine Sect. Kid, did you think this old man would be so easy to kill?”
The wound on Gu Sheng’s right shoulder throbbed, and he could feel a chilling poison penetrating his body.
He circulated his True Qi to temporarily suppress the poison.
“Despicable.”
Gu Sheng said coldly.
“Heh… All’s fair in war.”
The Blood Centipede Guardian licked the bloodstain on the curved blade.
“With my ‘Blood Centipede Poison’, you won’t last long. Hand over the Treasure obediently, and I might give you a quick death.”
Gu Sheng chuckled coldly.
“Just with your mere Poison Technique?”
The Blood Centipede Guardian wasted no more words, his form flickered, transforming into several afterimages attacking from different directions towards Gu Sheng.
The black curved blade in his hand drew strange arcs, each strike aimed at vital points.
“Blood Centipede Hundred Legs Slash!”
Gu Sheng swung the Qi Sword to parry, but the Blood Centipede Guardian’s attack angles were tricky, his speed astonishing, and coupled with the poison’s effect, Gu Sheng struggled to defend.
“Whoosh…”
Another blade sliced across Gu Sheng’s left arm, blood splattering.
“Kid, you won’t last much longer!”
The Blood Centipede Guardian laughed triumphantly.
“My poison will slowly erode your True Qi, making your life worse than death!”
Gu Sheng’s eyes flashed with cold light.
“Is that so?”
He suddenly stood still, no longer attempting to dodge.
Seeing this, the Blood Centipede Guardian thought he was paralyzed by poison and sneered as he swung his blade at Gu Sheng’s throat.
Just as the curved blade was about to touch the skin, Gu Sheng’s entire body suddenly erupted in dazzling golden light.
“Nirvana Three Profound Changes, Second Transformation!”
An immense aura burst from Gu Sheng’s body, his power surging instantly, and the wounds on his right shoulder and left arm healed visibly.
The semi-transparent Qi Sword was now entirely enveloped in golden flames, emitting a terrifying heat.
The Blood Centipede Guardian’s expression changed drastically.
“What?!”
Gu Sheng raised his hand, and with a sword slash, the golden Fire Sword clashed fiercely with the black curved blade.
“Boom…”
The Blood Centipede Guardian’s mouth curled up in a sinister smile, his eyes bearing the coldness of a venomous snake.
“Gu Sheng, you think uncovering my plan guarantees your survival?”
His raspy voice was like insects crawling over dry leaves.
“Just one wound… is enough…”
Gu Sheng’s pupils shrunk, the True Qi within him surged like a raging tide.
The terror of the Southern Border Poison Technique was something he had long heard of; the grotesque scenes of victims’ bodies rotting, turning into pus and blood, were fresh in his memory.
He absolutely could not give the opponent any chance!
“Beichen Immortal Slaying Sword!”
Gu Sheng bellowed, with nine Divine Flame Qi Swords around him suddenly splitting, transforming into sword rain all over the sky under the Nirvana Three Profound Changes.
The scorching Sword Qi burned the air until it warped, causing vegetation within a ten-zhang radius to wither instantly.
The Blood Centipede Guardian’s face changed dramatically, his once sinister visage twisted into a contorted mess.
“How can this be!”
He retreated in haste, his black robe billowing like bat wings, while dozens of poison-coated Hidden Weapons shot from his sleeves.
Those Hidden Weapons, upon touching the Sword Qi, dissolved completely like snowflakes meeting fire.
“You’re holding back just now?!”
For the first time, the Blood Centipede Guardian’s voice revealed panic.
He formed seals with his hands, eerie blood-colored runes appearing around him, evidently about to use some kind of Secret Technique for escape.
Gu Sheng’s eyes flashed with cold light, and from his brow a formless wave abruptly shot out…
“God-slaying Spear”!
“Ah!”
The Blood Centipede Guardian clutched his head and screamed, black blood seeping from his seven orifices.
The blood-colored runes hadn’t fully formed before they shattered with a bang.
He staggered back, his Sea of Consciousness as if pierced by a thousand needles, all of his thoughts becoming a tangled mess.
Now’s the time! Gu Sheng’s sword pointed with a sweep, and the rain of swords in the sky fell like a galaxy, instantly engulfing the Blood Centipede Guardian.
