King Liuli of the Great Wu Dynasty was Emperor Wolf's trusted subordinate and playmate since childhood. Without Emperor Wolf, King Liuli would not have achieved what he had today. They had been friends for life and death, and Emperor Wolf was also his benefactor. Now, he was killed by Zhou Bao with one punch in front of him. How could he not be angry?
Seeing King Liuli pouncing on him, Zhou Bao's face turned cold. Several Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword Qi were shot by him and shot directly at King Liuli. The Sword Qi soared into the sky. King Liuli's expression changed greatly. The Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword was full of destructive spirit, so he had to avoid its sharp edge. His figure flashed and he began to dodge.
Zhou Bao was an unforgiving person. Since he already had a plan in mind, he would not let King Liuli go easily. He divided the Sword Qi and once again turned it into a Blade Storm, exuding endless hostility. It dispersed and swept toward King Liuli like a torrent.
King Liuli's face turned livid. Although he was unwilling, he had to admit that Zhou Bao did have the right to be arrogant. Although he had the strength of a Genuine Immortal, he could not fight against this young man in front of him. This made him not only angry but also extremely aggrieved.
"Brat, go to hell!" King Liuli seemed to be driven to desperation by Zhou Bao. With a roar, he suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a cloud of black smoke.
Originally, Zhou Bao did not care about the black smoke. He controlled the Sword Qi of the Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword to rush forward and was about to smash the black smoke. However, unexpectedly, the Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword, which had always been effective, did not seem to have any effect on the black smoke. It could not cut it open. Not only that, when the black smoke appeared, Zhou Bao suddenly smelled a faint fragrance. The fragrance assailed his nostrils and he suddenly felt extremely dizzy.
"Poison?" Zhou Bao was shocked. He had the Poison Cold Shield, which had already entered the Pure Yang Realm. The core of the Poison Cold Shield was the Poison-absorbing Green Bead, which could be said to be invulnerable to all poisons. He had met people who used poisons before, but none of them worked on him. As long as a poisonous creature attacked him, his Poison Cold Shield would automatically absorb and refine the poison, so he did not have to worry about it at all. This time, the Poison Cold Shield did move, but the fragrance was so strong that the Poison Cold Shield could not completely digest it. Fortunately, his Mysterious Divine Light sensed something was wrong and immediately operated to help the Poison Cold Shield to share some of the pressure. Just now, he refined all the poison into the Poison Cold Shield before he was poisoned.
"Bang!"
Just when Zhou Bao was affected by the poison and was busy refining it, a cold light flashed and pierced Zhou Bao's body.
King Liuli spat out a mouthful of black smoke, but he did not stop moving. A strange machete appeared in his hand, which was glowing with a faint blue light. He chopped at Zhou Bao's body with force.
With the cultivation of the Level of True Immortality and the machete at the level of a Pure Yang Celestial Device, Zhou Bao was immediately sent flying by the machete. A violent feeling of pain and numbness spread from the machete.
King Liuli did not chase after Yan Yuntian. On the contrary, he flashed and rushed toward Yan Yuntian, fiercely chopping at him with the machete in his hand.
"Clang!"
The sound of metal clashing was heard. His machete did not hit Yan Yuntian, but the Flipping Sky Seal that suddenly appeared in front of him. King Liuli was bounced back by the Flipping Sky Seal.
"Oh no!" Seeing the machete chopping at the Flipping Sky Seal, King Liuli instinctively felt that something was wrong. While his body was bounced back, the strange machete flashed and danced around him, forming a faint blue light curtain. Together with the protective Gang Qi, they formed a thick barrier.
But how could all this stop the furious Zhou Bao?
"Since you don't want to hide, I'll send you to hell!" Zhou Bao growled and raised his head. The black and red Sword Qi cut through the space and fiercely slashed at King Liuli with unparalleled power.
"No —!" As the Sword Qi approached, King Liuli finally felt the threat of death. He roared angrily, but it was too late.
The Sword Qi, like tearing a thin piece of white paper, broke his defense and cut his body into two halves. Blood spilled all over the sky. Almost at the same time, the solid Sword Qi dispersed into countless small sword winds, forming a black and red torrent of Sword Qi. It twisted King Liuli's body into a mist of blood.
"The Elixir of Nine-headed Fierce Beast! Damn it! It's the Nine-headed Fierce Beast!" Before his voice died away, the body of a Genuine Immortal slowly melted like a candle being melted by fire, turning into a puddle of thick water in a very short time.
From the moment King Liuli spat out the black smoke to the moment he rushed toward Yan Yuntian and was killed by Zhou Bao, only two seconds had passed. The poisonous smoke he spat out just now had not dissipated, and the strange fragrance did not spread quickly. Just when King Liuli was killed by Zhou Bao, someone finally smelled the fragrance, and he was not the only one who was unlucky.
The Genuine Immortal who turned into thick water was only the first. Then came the second, and the third. For a moment, Turtle Back Mountain was in chaos again. Rays of brilliance rose up, trying to resist the weird poisonous Elixir of Nine-headed Fierce Beast. But it turned out that it was in vain.
The toxicity of the black smoke had reached an unimaginable level. Zhou Bao clearly saw that the poisonous smoke had corroded the surrounding space into an extremely gray color. Everything that came into contact with it had either melted or died. In the places closest to him, a large number of people had already fallen down.
"Nine-headed Fierce Beast's Elixir of Nine-headed Fierce Beast?" Zhou Bao had never heard of this name. But at this time, he felt that the Poison-absorbing Green Bead had begun to emit various kinds of greedy willpower.
This willpower was so firm and desperate that the Poison Cold Shield also began to operate automatically, forming a faint cyan mist around Zhou Bao. In this cyan mist, there was a faint pink color that could corrode one's soul and bones.
"This is … the Poison Cold Shield, a Pure Yang Celestial Device Poison Cold Shield with Peach Blossom Miasma!" All the people present were experienced and knowledgeable, so they had sharp eyes. At a glance, they saw through the details of the mist around Zhou Bao, and their faces darkened.
"Ga, ga, ga, ga!"
Just then, a strange voice rang out in the crowd. "Nine-headed Fierce Beast's Elixir of Nine-headed Fierce Beast! Ga, ga, ga, it seems that God is really protecting me!" As he spoke, a black skeleton suddenly broke through the void and appeared in front of the black smoke. It opened its mouth, intending to devour the black smoke.
"These are my spoils of war!" Zhou Bao sneered. He raised his hand and once again launched the Flipping Sky Seal, which directly suppressed the black skull.
"Brat, how dare you oppose me!" The skull emitted a sound that sounded like sand being rubbed against each other.
Zhou Bao's eyes turned cold. "You've got guts. How dare you make trouble at the Human Emperor-selecting Ceremony? Even if you die in my hands, it will be in vain!" While speaking, the Flipping Sky Seal shone with golden light and fiercely hit the black skull.
Dong, dong, dong, dong.
It was as if someone had punched a bronze drum. The Flipping Sky Seal collided with the skeleton. The skeleton was not broken, but cracks appeared on it. It let out a mournful wail and began to retreat.
"Boy, how dare you …!" An exasperated roar sounded almost at the same time. A gust of chilly wind broke through the air. It turned out to be another black skull.
Zhou Bao's eyes turned cold. He raised his hand and hit the skull with his fist. He shouted, "Damn it, are you all dead? This guy has openly ruined the Human Emperor-selecting Ceremony. Is there no one to stop him? "
Boom!
After hitting the skull with his fist, Zhou Bao's eyes narrowed slightly. His body floated towards the Elixir of Nine-headed Fierce Beast like a withered leaf. The cyan mist around him swirled and took back the Elixir of Nine-headed Fierce Beast.
"Medicine Elder, please be quiet!"
Almost at the same time when Zhou Bao received the Elixir of Nine-headed Fierce Beast, Yu Taixu, who had been squinting, finally opened his eyes. He raised his hand and hit the two black skulls back into the hollow. "If you have any grievances, you can settle them after the Human Emperor-selecting Ceremony!"
After that, he closed his eyes and rested again. The Medicine Elder who had just attacked him did not make any sound.
In the field, the Poison Cold Shield changed again after absorbing the Elixir of Nine-headed Fierce Beast. However, it was not the time to practice. Zhou Bao took a deep breath and put the Flipping Sky Seal back into his Dantian. He suppressed the Poison Cold Shield together with the Elixir of Nine-headed Fierce Beast that had just been absorbed.
Looking at the situation on the battlefield, Lord Atu, who was surrounded by countless puppets, was in a precarious situation. He could only parry the attacks and was unable to fight back. There were many injuries on his body, and it seemed that it wouldn't be long before he would die a horrible death.
Seeing this situation, Zhou Bao laughed. He did not go up to help, but instead looked at Ashoka with evil intentions.
Ashoka shivered fiercely under Zhou Bao's gaze. Thinking of Emperor Wolf, who had been smashed to pieces, he suddenly stood up from his seat.
"I quit. I quit the Human Emperor-selecting Ceremony. I will no longer participate in the competition for the Human Emperor!"
Ashoka's cultivation was extremely high. Under the pressure of Zhou Bao, he exerted his Internal Qi and shouted. Everyone could hear him clearly.
Senior Grand Tutor Hong and Atu Sage heard it clearly as well. Atu Sage arched his body and disappeared among the puppets. He turned into a mass of black light, broke through the space, and appeared in front of Ashoka. With a gloomy face, he looked at Zhou Bao and sighed heavily. He did not say anything else, which meant that he agreed with Ashoka's choice.
According to the rules of the Human Emperor-selecting Ceremony, once a participant announced his withdrawal, it would take effect immediately and he could no longer participate in the ceremony.
