Ling Tian knew that Justice would definitely be waiting for him!
Yu Manlou's strange martial arts were something that even Justice felt threatened by!
If even the purest XianTian Qi was useless against him, the two of them would definitely be filled with fear!
Not many people noticed the departure of the two of them. Everyone was shocked by the previous battle, and they were full of anticipation for the upcoming battle royale. Thus, the two of them left without a single sound and no one noticed them.
Under a huge tree far away, Justice stood with his hands behind his back. Shui WuBo's body was leaning against the tree and his appearance was exactly the same as when he was still alive. It was just that he was a martial arts fanatic and even if he died without any regrets, the scene before him was still extremely pitiful.
Seeing Ling Tian and Shui WuBo flying over, Justice's eyes flickered and he sized up Ling Tian. Suddenly, his eyes lit up but he did not say anything. He bent down and picked up Shui WuBo's corpse. "This is not the place to talk. Follow me."
The three of them flew out silently. The movement techniques of the three of them were extremely powerful and in the blink of an eye, they had already passed by several mountains and arrived at an extremely secluded valley. Justice placed Shui WuBo's body down gently and allowed him to lean against the tree. However, he was not willing to allow the corpse of an expert to lie on the ground.
Just from this point alone, it could be seen that Justice still respected Shui WuBo, a martial arts fanatic of a generation!
Ling Tian also looked at Shui WuBo's corpse with respect in his eyes. What he respected was naturally not Shui WuBo's martial arts or his character. What Ling Tian respected was Shui WuBo's dedication to martial arts and the calmness he had when facing death at the end of his life!
This wasn't something that just anyone could do!
Justice looked at Ling Tian calmly and said with a smile, "I didn't expect this, I really didn't expect this. You actually managed to make another breakthrough in just a few days and even reached such a shocking realm! Your rate of improvement is truly shocking! "
Although he said that he was shocked, there was no trace of shock on his face. There was only a look of excitement on his face. To him, the faster Ling Tian's strength increased, the better. He did not care how Ling Tian managed to increase his strength. It was fine as long as Ling Tian managed to increase his strength!
However, he was also extremely surprised. After all, Justice had never seen or heard of someone with such a terrifying cultivation speed like Ling Tian.
However, since he had such thoughts, there was no need for him to know. Because, if he knew about it, it would affect his calm state of mind. That would only bring more harm than good!
At this point, what was important was not one's martial arts but one's state of mind!
Ling Tian smiled and said, "However, now is not the time to fight. At the very least, it is not the best time for us to fight."
Justice laughed heartily, "You're right, this is not the best time to fight. However, this Seat can finally confirm that I will no longer be lonely. With you by my side, even if I want to be lonely, it will be an extremely difficult thing to do! " As he said that, a fervent light shone in his eyes and he revealed a look of longing. "I am truly looking forward to the battle between us! I have been looking forward to such a battle for decades! The feeling of loneliness is truly unbearable! Thankfully, there is someone else! Thankfully, there is you! In the past, it was just a beautiful dream. But now, it seems like my dream has come true. At this moment, I am truly happy! "
Ling Tian was speechless. For a peerless grandmaster like Justice who had been at the peak of his generation for dozens of years, the joy he felt when he suddenly discovered an opponent who was on par with him in all aspects was indescribable.
Ling Tian understood this feeling very well. Thus, he could only wait silently.
The joy on Justice's face disappeared in an instant. He looked at Shui WuBo's corpse and said, "I can't tell."
"Even you can't tell?" Ling Tian was truly shocked this time! Only when Justice said those few words did Ling Tian finally understand just how frightening this poison was. It was frightening to the point that it was unheard of! Furthermore, it was so strange and rare!
One had to know that apart from being a peerless martial arts grandmaster, Ling Tian was also one of the top physicians in the world. Ling Tian had lived two lives and there were only two or three people who could be compared to him. Furthermore, those two or three people were all divine physicians in his previous life. As for the poison in this world, there was no one who could compare to him. Ling Tian believed that there was no one in this world who had a better understanding of the poison than him. This was especially so when it came to this strange poison that was fused with martial arts! But right now, even Justice was unable to see through the origin of Yu Manlou's poison! Since he couldn't tell the origin of this poison, there was no need to talk about how to deal with it!
Just what kind of poison could be so sharp and so terrifying?
Ling Tian's face turned heavy. After a moment, he asked, "If I can't tell from the surface, but if I dissect the body, I might be able to find some clues …"
Justice said with displeasure, "Shui WuBo was one of the top experts in the world and he had already grasped the true essence of the Sword Dao. Even though such an expert has died, we can't continue to trample on his corpse? How are we different from beasts if we do that? I don't agree! "
Ling Tian laughed bitterly. Justice's thoughts were within his expectations. If there were other methods, why would he want to do that?!
He knew that the moment he said those words, the situation would be like this. After all, this world wasn't Earth. On Earth, there was the saying of dissecting the body to test for poison. However, it wouldn't work here. The dead were the most important. Furthermore, this was a dead expert.
To the living, no matter how cruel it was, others would only say that it was cruel. But to the dead, unless there was an irreconcilable enmity between them, no one would agree to it! Even with Justice's understanding, it was difficult for him to go beyond the scope of this world!
Ling Tian deliberated over his words and said slowly, "Senior Justice, for such a strange situation to occur during the battle, it is obvious that Yu Manlou was the one who did it! With Senior's medical skills, it is obvious that Shui WuBo's palm was completely unharmed and there were no traces of him being stabbed by a hidden weapon. When Yu Manlou and Shui WuBo's hands met, I could clearly see that Shui WuBo's palm swelled for a moment before it disappeared. After that, a black line traveled up his wrist and Shui WuBo lost all strength to resist. If it wasn't for the fact that he broke through to the realm of the way of the sword at the last moment, he wouldn't have been able to unleash that final sword attack. In that case, Yu Manlou's poison was so sharp and terrifying that it was hard to resist. It had already reached an unimaginable level where one would die instantly! "
Justice listened quietly. At that time, he was opposite Shui WuBo and didn't see what happened.
"Right now, Shui WuBo is dead and his death is incomparably strange. It can even be said that Shui WuBo died in a daze! However, all of this originated from Yu Manlou's poison. I can tell that this poison is extremely strange and no matter how high one's cultivation is or how high one's cultivation is, I believe that one wouldn't be able to resist it at all! The moment one is poisoned, no matter who you are, you will only be at the mercy of Yu Manlou. I won't be an exception and you won't be an exception! "
"If we are able to find the source of this poison, we will be able to give Shui WuBo an explanation! Even if he dies, we will still have to give him an explanation. Furthermore, if we do not get to the bottom of Yu ManLou's methods, Justice, let me ask you, who else in the world is worthy of Yu ManLou using such a poisonous technique to deal with him? "Ling Tian snickered and pointed at Justice before pointing at himself," Other than you, it would be me! "
"Don't tell me you want to be like Shui WuBo and die in the hands of Yu Manlou?" Ling Tian asked.
Justice's face changed slightly and he said, "If he is alive, we can still investigate. But if he is dead, how can we investigate? Even if we cut open his abdomen, how can we find anything? At the very most, we will only be able to tell that he was poisoned to death. "
"I know how to investigate. Let me do it. I believe that I will be able to find out the cause of death and resolve this grudge. This is also what Senior Shui WuBo wishes to see!" Ling Tian said confidently.
Justice froze for a moment and looked at Ling Tian. Letting out a long sigh, he placed his hands behind his back and agreed reluctantly.
Ling Tian then bowed three times towards Shui WuBo's corpse. Raising his head, he saw that Justice was standing with his back facing him, as though he wasn't willing to participate in the dissection. He couldn't help but look at Justice in disdain. He thought to himself that he obviously wanted to know the cause of death but he had to act so helplessly. However, there was no time to lose. Ling Tian pulled out his sword and began his work.
All of a sudden, Ling Tian let out a startled cry and retreated backwards, pulling Justice and Ling Jian along as he retreated a hundred feet like a whirlwind!
Before Justice and Justice could recover from their shock, a scene of disbelief appeared in their eyes.
A soft sound rang out from Shui WuBo's body as though something had broken. Following which, a ball of black gas rose from Shui WuBo's chest and enveloped his entire body. The black gas dissipated rapidly and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
This was not the most terrifying thing. Shui WuBo's body was also slowly melting. In just a few moments, he had already turned into a pool of black water and seeped into the ground. All the grass on the ground within fifty feet withered, melted, and turned into nothingness.
The three of them looked at the ground where Shui WuBo's body had once been and realized that it had turned into a death zone. Their eyes widened in shock and cold sweat dripped down their backs!
When Ling Tian had just cut open Shui WuBo's abdomen, he realized that Shui WuBo's heart was abnormally swollen. The moment it came into contact with air, it expanded rapidly as though it was filled with air. Knowing that something was amiss, he hurriedly grabbed onto the other two and retreated.
If Ling Tian had reacted a little slower and allowed the black gas to touch his body …
Justice's face was also extremely ugly to behold. Thinking about how he had carried Shui WuBo's body for such a long distance, if such a situation were to occur while he was carrying Shui WuBo, then … his status as the Martial Order Medallion owner would definitely turn into a mountain.
Ling Tian's face turned ashen as he wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead. With a lingering fear, he said, "How tyrannical! How vicious! How evil! "
Justice's face was already filled with rage as he snarled, "Yu ManLou actually dares to cultivate such an inhumane demonic art! The heavens will not tolerate this! This Seat shall chase after him right now and slay Yu ManLou with my sword! I will definitely not allow him to continue living in this world and harm others! "
"Wait!" Ling Tian hurriedly stopped him, "If I'm not wrong, it will be too late for senior to rush over now. Yu ManLou will definitely not wait for you there. You were the one who brought Shui WuBo's body away. As someone who cultivates in this demonic art, how would he not know how powerful it is? I believe that you will only be making a wasted trip. At this moment, he might have already boarded the ship back to Heavenly Star. "
Justice was still filled with hatred.
Ling Tian asked, "It seems like you already know the origin of this demonic art?"
Justice nodded his head with an ashen face, "That's right. I only recalled it after seeing the changes in Shui WuBo's body. According to the records of my Beyond Heavens, over a thousand years ago, an extremely evil demonic figure appeared in the world. His martial arts were tyrannical and evil. Anyone who was struck by him would turn into a puddle of blood in an instant. No matter how strong one's martial arts were or how high one's cultivation was, they would not be able to escape! At that time, everyone felt that they were in danger. In the end, all the powers of the pugilistic world banded together to attack this demonic figure. My sect's third generation Martial Order Medallion owner struck a lightning fast blow and killed this demonic figure. "
"After his death, this demonic art never appeared again. I thought that this demonic art had already been lost. To think that it actually landed in the hands of Tamago! And today, it appeared in the hands of Yu ManLou! "
Ling Tian asked curiously, "Then, what kind of poison is this demonic art? How is it cultivated? "
Speaking of this topic, Justice's face turned even uglier and he said solemnly, "The reason why this skill is called evil is because it cannot be described with words. This type of poison has no antidote and is known as the 'death aura'. As for the cultivation method, it is even more tragic! It is to take a thousand children below the age of ten and feed them poison from a young age. Every month, the amount of poison will be increased. Every five hundred children will form a batch and after ten years, the first batch of five hundred children will be drowned. The blood and qi in their bodies must not be leaked out. After that, one will use a unique technique to absorb the Death Qi from the corpses. Take note, the Death Qi will only be absorbed when the corpses are slightly decomposed and their stomachs are swollen! After absorbing the Death Qi from the first batch of five hundred children, the demonic art will have some success. However, it will still not be able to be used to harm others and it will still take another ten years to neutralize the poison in their bodies. After ten years, the second batch of five hundred children will be able to absorb the Death Qi from them before the demonic art can be repeated! "
"The entire process will take at least twenty years before the demonic art will have a chance of reaching large success! Ling Tian, do you know that as long as one has this poison in their body, even if they have never practiced martial arts before, they would still be able to ambush us and kill us without even knowing how we died? "
Justice gritted his teeth in anger. No matter what, Yu ManLou was the head of one of the top aristocratic families in the world. Justice would never have imagined that Yu ManLou would be so brazen as to cultivate such an evil martial art in secret!
"If that's the case, is there any way to counter this demonic art?" Ling Tian frowned and felt his stomach churning. He had an intense urge to vomit!
Who would have thought that Yu ManLou, who looked so refined and dignified, would actually have such a disgusting martial arts! This was an inhumane martial art that would incur the wrath of the heavens! Ling Tian's heart was filled with killing intent!
"There is no antidote for this demonic art! There is no way to save it! There is no way to defend against it! However, the method to deal with him is actually very simple. The third generation Martial Order Medallion owner of my sect used this method to kill that demonic figure … "
Ling Tian's face lit up with joy, "Since there is a method, can Senior Justice explain it to me?!"
Justice laughed bitterly. "The method is simple to the extreme, but it's also extremely difficult. The method is to kill him as soon as possible before he uses this poison technique! Kill him so quickly that he will not be able to use this demonic art. This is the most effective method and the only method. No spiritual medicine or divine art will be able to do anything to this demonic poison! "Justice's face sank.
Ling Tian's heart could not help but skip a beat.
Justice's method could be summarized in one word: instant kill!
Ling Tian also laughed bitterly. He knew the method and it was indeed simple and effective. However, the problem was that Yu ManLou was the head of the Tamago Family and had a high status. He was also the commander of an army of a million with countless experts by his side. Furthermore, his martial arts had already reached a certain level and it was extremely difficult to even sneak up on him! Who would be able to kill him before he could even react? Who would be able to do it?
This was an almost impossible task! Could Justice do it? Could he do it?!
Unless he imitated the method of the Martial Order Medallion owner back then and set up a situation where Yu Manlou was alone, he would be willing to sacrifice himself and send out five to six experts to surround Yu Manlou. Then, he or Justice would hide by the side and strike when Yu Manlou was flustered. Only then would he be able to succeed in one strike!
However, the experts surrounding Yu ManLou would also have to face the danger of death!
If it was a one on one battle, Yu ManLou would definitely not be a match for him and Justice. But if he were to use this demonic art, both of them would die together!
"Let's go to the pier!" Ling Tian made a decision!
"Go to the pier?" The two of them were puzzled. Didn't Ling Tian say that Yu ManLou was already on the ship heading back to Heavenly Star?!
"Yes!" Ling Tian replied hurriedly, "I didn't realize that the problem would be so serious just now and was afraid that Senior would start a massacre. At that time, many people would die. But now, we have to choose the lesser of two evils. Even if we have to kill everyone in Tamago, we have to stop Yu ManLou from returning to Heavenly Star. Right now, it might not be an easy task to find Yu ManLou's whereabouts. However, there is a path that he has to take to return to Heavenly Star. He has to go to the pier to board the ship. As long as he hasn't left Heavenly Wind, we have the confidence to stop him! Now that he has already used his demonic art on Shui WuBo, we can bet that he won't be able to use it again in a short period of time. In any case, this might be our last chance! The only chance to kill him without paying a price! "
"That's right!" Ling Jian and Justice were both jolted awake. The three of them looked at each other and activated their movement techniques, sprinting towards the pier.
The three of them sped towards the pier like a whirlwind. But to their dismay, they realized that the ship had already turned into a small black dot in the vast ocean …
