Chapter 1168: The Young Master's Power

The answer was only separated by a layer of fog.

The arrival of the Daughters of the Nine Shores stirred up a gust of wind that tossed and turned the fog. Thus, they were able to see clearly …

It was just that the fog had not completely dispersed, so no matter how one looked at it, it was like looking at flowers in the fog.

Even though he knew that it was a flower, this matter was related to his constitution, so he still had some hope.

This was caused by human nature.

Xing Huanzi was no exception.

This was the reason why his eyes were absent-minded and his voice was hoarse.

He also knew that if the truth was as he saw it, then … he had no chance of winning this battle.

He also understood that since the other side had revealed their cards tonight, it meant that the decisive battle had begun!

"I can't win, but I have a certain chance of not losing!"

Fourth True Lord's eyes flashed with killing intent. He ignored Fairy Ling Huang and the fox beauty.

Zhang Xuan's body flickered as he walked forward.

To him, the two of them were no longer important.

Right now, time was the most important factor to him, so he couldn't waste what little time he had on others.

The fox beauty's eyes narrowed. She wanted to stop him, but the pressure from the God of Flame Badge made her stop. Thus, she looked at Fairy Ling Feng.

"Junior sister, this person seems to be in a hurry. Why don't we stop him?"

Fairy Ling Huang's eyes flickered when she heard this, but she did not choose to stop him in the end.

"That person gave me the mission to protect the fox beauty."

The Spirit Phoenix narrowed her eyes and allowed the Fourth True Lord to walk out of the courtyard and disappear into the storm.

Thunder rumbled.

The sound of thunder spread in all directions.

......

Xu Qing's figure appeared outside Zhong Chi's residence. When he heard the rumbling of thunder, he walked in.

In the blink of an eye, the residence began to grow blurry. All of the spell formations and restrictive spells inside could prevent anyone from entering, but not Xu Qing.

Thus, in the blink of an eye, Xu Qing had already appeared in the residence and stood before Zhong Chi who was meditating cross-legged.

Lightning flashed outside, illuminating the heavens and the earth. It also reflected in Zhong Chi's abruptly opened eyes, revealing a hint of astonishment in his eyes.

"Young Master?"

Xu Qing's appearance caught Zhong Chi by surprise. He instinctively rose to his feet and was just about to offer a salute when a gentle power emanated from Xu Qing, preventing him from bowing.

In his bewilderment, Xu Qing walked to the window of his room. He looked out at the storm outside, listened to the thunder in his ears, and felt the wind blowing against him. His expression was calm as he lightly said,

"Li Mengtu!"

When these three words left Xu Qing's mouth, the thunder in the outside world rumbled the loudest. In an instant, the thunder in the sky seemed to land on Zhong Chi's heart.

His mind exploded and his mind rumbled.

This caused his expression to suddenly turn grim while his heart surged with great waves. He was just about to speak when Xu Qing's voice was still reverberating like a thunderclap.

"I've already seen through your intentions."

"You're using your constitution to subtly invade the body you're in, trying to poison it to death!"

"However, because your consciousness has descended and your body is not simple, it is very difficult for you to meet the conditions of being poisoned to death in advance. Therefore, you want to borrow the power of the waves of history at a crucial point in history to make your poison take effect."

"You have to change the person you're possessing from the inevitable death of the catastrophe to being killed by your poison!"

"Through this method, your poison gained the weight of history, and appeared in history before your master."

"In this way, no matter what happens after this historical mirror image, you will have a weapon to fight against your master in the future."

"If history is real, then your poison constitution has a real foundation. If history is still a mirror image, then it can also be called an illusory foundation for you."

"It's beneficial for your future cultivation!"

"Good idea!"

Xu Qing turned his head and calmly looked at Zhong Chi.

His words caused Zhong Chi's heart to pound even harder, until it reached a peak and became a deafening roar.

His breathing instantly quickened, and his eyes swept away the respect from before, replaced by a wisp of fierceness.

However, in the depths of that sharpness, disbelief was still extremely obvious.

Just like Fairy Ling Huang and Li Tianqi, he had the same thoughts as the Fourth True Lord.

For someone who could not be replaced, he was actually replaced …

They were in a daze and were overwhelmed with shock.

Therefore, in the blink of an eye, the might of poison rose from his entire body. He stared fixedly at Xu Qing, suppressed the waves in his heart, and quickly calmed himself down.

Many thoughts flashed through his mind as he spoke in a low voice.

"Who are you?!"

"The moment I called out your name, you should have already guessed it."

Xu Qing said calmly.

Zhong Chi was silent. He indeed had his suspicions. Because of his identity, he had once told the Earth Spirit Ancestor to transfer it to Xu Qing.

But now, when he recalled everything that had happened between him and the young master in front of him, he couldn't really tell them apart.

In particular, it was not difficult to guess his true identity. Poison … was the most obvious sign.

Therefore, he was about to speak.

But at this moment, thunder rumbled in the outside world.

Xu Qing sensed something and looked outside.

He had a lot of things to do tonight, and explaining the matter to Zhong Chi would take time. Therefore, he spoke decisively.

"I have a better way for you to accomplish your goal!"

With that said, Xu Qing raised his hand and took out a special jade slip. Just as he was about to imprint it, he thought of something and looked at Zhong Chi.

"Give your Constitution Poison the most primitive name!"

Zhong Chi's eyes narrowed. As the Young Master's study companion, he naturally recognized the jade slip and knew that it was the Young Master's decree.

His heartbeat quickened as he vaguely guessed what the other party was going to do.

This conjecture was something he had dreamed of before, but was unable to do because of his identity.

Therefore, although he was surprised by the person in front of him, he still immediately spoke.

"Poison of Dreamland!"

Xu Qing nodded. Then, he pinched the jade slip and imprinted it with his divine sense.

"Zhong Chi, a disciple of the Immortal Palace, used his self-created Dream Earth Poison Constitution to protect the life and death of the Young Master.

"Therefore, Zhong Chi was given special permission to establish the Poison Division within Shaoji Palace. He created his own poisons, and the disciples of Ascend Immortal Palace were to constantly prepare them and inform the world!"

As his Divine Sense reverberated, Zhong Chi's mind roared like never before.

He knew very well …

This was a title bestowal!

To correct his identity and correct the basis of his poisonous constitution. Therefore, this method was far more direct, far more impressive, and far more profound than killing him with poison!

The two sides couldn't even be compared.

Thus, as the decree was branded, space-time ripples instantly surged in this place, exploding together with the thunder in the outside world.

"After tonight, remember to come to Shaoji Palace and build your Poison Division."

Sensing the space-time ripples here, Xu Qing flung the Dharmic decree jade slip in his hand towards Zhong Chi.

Zhong Chi grabbed it. At this moment, the feeling of confusion in his heart was even more obvious. He wanted to say something, but he did not know how to start.

"Lastly, give me a portion of your poison. Remember … it has to be strong and intense. Otherwise, how are you going to protect me?!"

Xu Qing's expression had been calm the entire time. He looked over at Zhong Chi.

Zhong Chi did not hesitate. He raised his hand and slashed his chest, causing blood to gush out.

It was black blood.

Following which, he merged a bit of his consciousness into Du Xian, causing the poison within the blood to reach a certain level.

Only then did he pass it to Xu Qing.

Xu Qing took it and glanced at it.

"It seems that your understanding of plants and vegetation is not complete. That's why I've returned the Poison Constitution to you. Your Poison Constitution … has not grown much."

Xu Qing shook his head and walked out, his figure disappearing into the wind and rain.

Inside the house, Zhong Chi let out a long sigh and looked out at the outside world. His Young Master's words echoed in his mind, and after a long while, he smiled bitterly.

"Xu Qing, you sure know how to hide things from me …"

......

Inside the Immortal Palace, the wind and rain became even stronger. As it poured down, the chaos caused by the secrets of heaven caused great waves to appear in the sky once more.

Half of it suddenly turned red.

Half of it was still pitch black!

In the darkness, the Fourth True Lord's figure whistled forward. His target was where Zhong Chi was. The waves there were like a torch in his eyes.

However, just as his figure was about to pass through, a fog that blended into the night silently spread out and blocked his path!

The Fourth True Lord paused.

Li Tianjiao's figure slowly walked out from the fog. His eyes were filled with fighting spirit as he spoke.

"Xing Huanzi, where are you going in such a hurry?"

......

In the pitch-black darkness, the killing was intense.

Within the red clouds, Xu Qing moved forward.

He could feel that the space-time of the entire Immortal Palace was forming waves following his actions.

In the beginning, the change in Li Tianjiao's trajectory had caused a huge commotion.

However, with the presence of the fox beauty, the waves became stronger.

Later on, Li Mengtu's change and the stars in the decree added even more impetus to this wave.

"Next, Li Tianjiao's severed arm has become a fact."

"Then, the content of the decree took effect, and the space-time ripples fluctuated again!"

"But … it's not enough.

As Xu Qing walked forward, he focused his Divine Sense on the poisonous blood in his hand.

Aside from Li Mengtu and his master, there was another person who understood Li Mengtu's poison constitution. In fact, to a certain extent, that person understood it even better than Li Mengtu.

This person was naturally Xu Qing.

Therefore, at that moment, he was fusing his own understanding into the poisonous blood. Then, relying on the host's body, he strengthened it again, causing the poison … to become even stronger.

Soon after, he appeared outside Gongsun Qingmu's palace in the Thunder Punishment Palace.

As soon as he appeared, Gongsun Qingmu, who had been sitting cross-legged in the temple, suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes shone brightly, but at the same time, they were filled with bewilderment.

He could sense who was outside the door.

It was just that this night, he was prepared for someone to come looking for him at any time, and he was confident that he could deal with everything.

But he never expected that the person who came to find him … was actually the Aurora Young Master!

At this moment, just like everyone else, his mind was in turmoil.

At this moment, the wind and rain were howling, red clouds were sprinkling down, and thunder rumbled.

Outside the door, Xu Qing stepped forward without any hesitation.

The door of the hall was shattered. Countless pieces of wood flew in with the wind and rain. Xu Qing stepped into the hall and stood before Gongsun Qingmu.

He lowered his head and spoke indifferently.

"Betrayal is your Dao."

"But it won't work for me!"
