It was already dusk, but the heat hadn't dissipated by much. The Pond Cloud Rainforest was humid and hot, and everyone inside was sweating profusely, drenching their robes.
Only the area where they had fought before was somewhat cold. Perhaps it was the aura of death, or perhaps it was the cold killing intent between Wang Baole and the old man, but it was different from the rest of the forest.
In the beginning, Wang Baole had been nothing more than a young student in the eyes of the black-robed men. He was like a tiger cub that had just sprouted its fangs. He wasn't much of a threat. But now … he had killed nearly thirty people in a single day. He had experienced countless life-and-death situations, and had weathered a storm of blood ….
In the old man's eyes, Wang Baole was no longer the same. His body was still round, but in the old man's heart, he was on high alert. Even though his Cultivation base was higher than Wang Baole's, he was still on high alert.
In all his life, he had never met someone as ruthless as Wang Baole. Not only was he ruthless to his enemies, he was even more ruthless to himself.
He also felt depressed. In reality, if not for the appearance of the mosquito and the fact that it was targeting him, Wang Baole would have died on the spot. However, he had forgotten that he was not the only one who was unlucky. If Wang Baole had not encountered the seven Red Bone White Infant Snakes previously and escaped the encirclement, his ending … would not have been much different from what it was now.
The old man took a deep breath and clenched his fist. The tempest around him grew stronger, and the power of his Magical Device was fully unleashed. His entire body was filled with Qi and blood, and his muscles and bones were taut. He was like a bow, ready to explode at any moment.
Being stared at by the old man was like being locked on by an arrow. Wang Baole panted heavily. His injuries had accumulated, and even though he had taken medicinal pills to alleviate them, he hadn't had time to rest. His injuries had only been suppressed. The only thing that kept him going was his desire to live, and his tenacious willpower.
He knew very well that the moment he relaxed, he would immediately pass out.
"Let's end this quickly!" Wang Baole's eyes flickered with coldness as he leaped backward, landing on a Big Tree. The Big Tree shook violently as Wang Baole used the force of the impact to speed up toward the old man. He waved his right hand, and shockingly, seven or eight flying swords appeared.
Shockingly, the small purple sword was among them!
The old man's eyes flashed violently. The moment Wang Baole retreated, his body had already leaped up, as if he had turned into a falcon. He raised his right hand and clenched it. Suddenly, a blue light flashed from his glove and turned into a shield of light, sweeping it towards the incoming flying sword.
From afar, the two of them looked like two shooting stars that collided in an instant!
"Explode!" Wang Baole roared. Immediately, the seven or eight flying swords around the small purple sword exploded, turning into a large number of fragments that crashed into the old man's shield of glove. The shield of light twisted and became unstable, and the small purple sword pierced through it, heading straight for the old man's chest.
The old man snorted coldly. Although he could see that the small sword was not ordinary and knew that it must be a second-grade magical item like his glove, he also knew that if one was not in the True Breath realm, one would not be able to control the magical item with perfect agility. It was not difficult to dodge. In a flash, he raised his right leg. It seemed to carry the weight of ten thousand tons. There was a faint sonic boom and a scorching heat. He swung his leg straight at Wang Baole. In the instant that he kicked, the tip of his shoe flashed, and a black thorn shot out directly!
All of this happened in the blink of an eye. Wang Baole's eyes were filled with ruthlessness and determination. He did not dodge at all. He was kicked in the waist by the old man, and his bones cracked. The thorn pierced into his flesh, and he spat out a large amount of blood. However, he did not retreat. Instead, he grabbed the old man's leg, and the devouring seed in his body instantly exploded.
"Die!"
The explosion of the devouring seed and the suction force caused the old man's expression to change. His body was involuntarily pulled to a stop. Seeing the small purple sword heading straight for his chest, his heart skipped a beat. However, this old man had rich battle experience and strong combat ability. At this critical moment, the veins on his forehead bulged. He roared and took advantage of the momentum to leap into the air. He raised his gloved right hand and grabbed the small purple sword with extreme speed. His eyes were filled with ferocity.
"Stop!"
The glove was extremely ferocious. At this moment, it shone with a piercing blue light. It was obvious that the old man had used all his strength. He grabbed the small purple sword and was about to stab it back at Wang Baole. However, at this moment, the small sword, which was as extraordinary as the glove, seemed to have an empty shell. In reality, it was not very sturdy. It was actually … crushed by the old man's palm, turning into countless purple fragments that flew in all directions rapidly!
Even the old man himself was stunned by this scene. Then, his expression changed drastically. He roared with all his might and kicked Wang Baole away. However, even if he was a half-step True Breath expert, he could not dodge in time because the small sword was right in front of him. In an instant, a fragment flew past his cheek.
A numbing sensation made the old man suck in a breath.
"You poisoned me!" He retreated quickly. He activated the cultivation in his body and sealed his Qi and blood. He was about to take out the antidote when Wang Baole laughed and rushed out in an instant.
This was the trump card he had prepared for the old man when escaping after the battle.
The poison came from the poison gland in the corpse of the red-boned white baby snake. The small purple sword was originally extremely sturdy. However, in order to surprise the old man, Wang Baole used his knowledge of the Dharmic Armament faculty to temporarily change the interior of the small purple sword. After concealing the poison, he made it unstable and explosive. That was why everything that happened just now happened! He even gave up on the amplification effect of the Sky Aperture to avoid alerting the old man. After all, there were many fragments after the explosion, and there was a higher chance of injuring the old man.
At this moment, even if his waist was covered in blood, he could not care too much in this life and death situation. The devouring seed exploded once again and rapidly closed the distance between them. Without giving the old man a chance to eat the antidote, he suddenly closed in and punched.
"Didn't you also poison me!?" Wang Baole panted. He had already sensed that he could no longer feel the wound on his waist. His vision turned black, and he knew that the thorns hidden in the old man's shoes were smeared with poison!
The old man's forehead was covered in sweat, and his expression changed again. He wanted to struggle, but Wang Baole had already gone crazy. The devouring seed exploded again and again, and the old man could not escape. Wang Baole's grappling technique was extremely sharp, and he was going all out. He wanted to drag the old man down with him even if he had to die. The old man was exhausted and could not take out the antidote.
"Let's see who will be the first to be poisoned!" Wang Baole gritted his teeth and went forward again. He used the grappling technique and tangled with the old man.
"You lunatic!" The elder was flustered and exasperated. He could feel that his wounds were festering, and his entire body was in excruciating pain. Furthermore, it was obvious that the venom was spreading rapidly. He immediately panicked, and as he roared, he immediately attacked Wang Baole.
Wang Baole spat out a mouthful of blood, but his eyes were filled with madness. He slammed his head into the old man's forehead and laughed sinisterly.
"Come on, you want to kill your Grandpa Wang?"
The old man's body trembled. In this life and death crisis, he also went crazy. He clenched his right hand and attacked again. However, grappling at close range was Wang Baole's forte. He endured the dizziness and the old man's punch. Amidst the blood, he grabbed the old man's wrist and suddenly twisted it. His body fiercely slammed into the old man's crotch.
"You want to compete with your Grandpa Wang in terms of ruthlessness? Old thief, I'm younger than you, and I recover faster. You will definitely be poisoned before me! " Wang Baole's mouth was filled with blood, and his words were filled with psychological attacks. The old man let out a miserable shriek. His eyes were bright red, and he once again went crazy. Soon, the two of them were down on the ground. They continued to wrestle and kill each other. It didn't look like a battle between Pulse Enrichment experts, but more like a battle between ruffians.
However, the struggle didn't last very long. Soon, the old man let out a weak howl as he tore off his left hand that was being held by Wang Baole. He staggered backward, finally breaking free of Wang Baole's entanglement.
Wang Baole was like a lamp without oil. He wanted to stop the old man, but he lay there, his entire body trembling. His face was purplish black, and he was powerless. He looked at the old man. Half of his body was festering. Terrified, he pulled out a detoxifying pill. Trembling, he tried to place it in his mouth, but it was too late. His body trembled, and the detoxifying pill fell to the ground. His body was melting at a visible rate …. Blood and flesh disappeared, and red bones appeared ….
"Wang …." Before he died, he glared at Wang Baole. With a bitter laugh, his head melted.
Seeing the old man die miserably, Wang Baole gasped for breath. He bit down hard on the tip of his tongue and struggled to crawl over, muttering unconsciously.
