The classic showdown between two epic-level killers was no less than the duel between the old devil and General Yi back then. The difference was that the duel between the old devil and General Yi had been watched by millions of people, while Wang Ling was the only audience for this duel between these two epic-level killers.
It was already late at night. Old Antique and Taoist Taotie stood facing each other on the hospital rooftop as a cool breeze blew past them.
The lights on the rooftop had already been destroyed when the two's auras had collided with each other …
The lampshade had directly been shaken into fine dust and had drifted off to who knew where.
Even the ground was covered in mottled cracks caused by the collision of auras, which looked very sinister from a distance.
Now, Wang Ling suddenly felt that he had made the right decision to have Director Li withdraw and set up the barrier on the rooftop.
Both of them were very strong; at least in terms of auras, their explosive power was stronger than that of anyone Wang Ling had ever seen.
In terms of spirit power alone, they were about the same level as Cheng Yu, the Master of Immortal Mansion, at his peak, but their explosive power was truly terrifying … it was impossible to achieve this kind of explosive power without accumulating it for hundreds or even thousands of years.
For a normal cultivator, there was a process from the generation of spirit power to the generation of spiritual pressure.
No matter how short it was, it was still a subtle process.
At that very moment, whether it was Old Antique or Taoist Taotie, both of them could instantly erupt with power without any delay. If Wang Ling wasn't included, only people who dealt with killers all year round could do this …
Watching the battle from the scene, Wang Ling noticed that after the first collision of auras, the two of them exchanged greetings for a while before falling silent again.
These two fellow disciples hadn't seen each other for a long time; it wasn't that they couldn't talk, but that they didn't know where to start.
Both of their hearts were in a mess.
After a long while, it was Old Antique who spoke first. "I want to know your real purpose."
Wang Ling's eyes lit up slightly at this question.
Judging from the invisible magic array on the rooftop, Taoist Taotie hadn't spent so much money on this show just to exact revenge, but to use this "revenge" to carry out his other purpose. The invisible magic array had the effect of storing spirit power, and after a spirit explosion, it would definitely collect a considerable amount of spirit power.
What was the ultimate goal of accumulating such a massive amount of spirit power … in any case, in Wang Ling's opinion, it probably wasn't anything good.
Old Antique's question made Taoist Taotie fall into a long silence, and then he smiled bitterly under his mask. "Senior brother, do you really not know, or are you pretending not to know?"
In the end, Taoist Taotie took a deep breath and said, "To open the Gate Between Worlds, of course."
"Why do you want to open the Gate Between Worlds?"
Old Antique narrowed his eyes. "Even if you want to open it, you should know that the Gate Between Worlds can't be opened in a short period of time." The fluctuations of the Gate Between Worlds had already been detected during the survival contest during the military training exercise for the six schools, and Old Antique hadn't forgotten it. But later on, the Gate Between Worlds mysteriously disappeared, and no one knew why.
Later, General Yi attributed this incident to the old devil's mistake.
In fact, there was no way Old Antique could have guessed that the person who had closed the Gate Between Worlds was in fact secretly observing them right now …
"If you want to summon the Gate Between Worlds, there's a five-year deadline. But it's not impossible to summon it continuously in a short period of time. " Taoist Taotie sneered. "Every time I summon the Gate Between Worlds, I need to pour in a huge amount of spirit power. As long as my plan succeeds this time, I'll have enough spirit power to summon the Gate Between Worlds ten times. "
Summoning the Gate Between Worlds at a cost of ten times the amount of spirit power … what kind of operation was this?
Since his first encounter with the Gate Between Worlds six years ago, Wang Ling had done a lot of research in private, but he had never heard of anyone using double the amount of spirit power to summon the Gate Between Worlds.
First of all, the five-year cooldown period was set in stone, and there was no way it could be changed. Furthermore, if you wanted to summon the Gate Between Worlds, apart from knowing the summoning array, the most important thing was spirit power reserves. Back then, in order to summon the Gate Between Worlds, the old devil had burned no less than a hundred treasured holy weapons … Thus, Wang Ling's first reaction was that Taoist Taotie seemed to have misunderstood something about summoning the Gate Between Worlds.
What was used to summon the Gate Between Worlds was a summoning array exclusive to the Gate Between Worlds, and wasn't a refining array … Equivalent exchange was completely useless here!
"Then what happens after summoning the Gate Between Worlds?" Old Antique asked.
"I received reliable information that there's a kind of holy water on the other side of the Gate that can restore my appearance," Taoist Taotie replied.
This answer could be said to be quite simple and crude, and could be summed up in four words: I want to get plastic surgery!
In the end, the whole matter came back to Taoist Taotie's face …
Wang Ling still remembered the gossip Old Antique had told him in history class.
In fact, Taoist Taotie wasn't born ugly; it was just because he had cultivated the wrong technique that his face had become distorted and uglier. Whether it was plastic surgery or the use of elixirs, he would revert to his original appearance in a quarter of an hour …
Old Antique had never expected this to be the root of all evil in the whole matter.
He had underestimated his Junior Brother's obsession with plastic surgery and shaping his appearance …
"It's so painful to be ugly. Senior brother will probably never understand, right? "Taoist Taotie adjusted his mask and said," Ever since I became ugly, everything has changed. After us two fellow disciples left the martial arts world, we were equally famous … but every time we carried out a mission, people only remembered you, and not me! They couldn't even bear to look at me! "
"Junior brother … you're mistaken." Old Antique was silent.
"Of course not!"
Taoist Taotie bellowed. "Once, when I went on a mission, I finally managed to assassinate a criminal for my employer, but when I paid the bill, my employer gave me a bad review. Do you know why?"
Old Antique: "???"
Taoist Taotie: "He asked me why I was facing him with my butt!"
Old Antique: "…"
Wang Ling: "…"
Taoist Taotie clutched his chest and gasped for breath, looking very agitated. "The whole world made a fuss about my ugliness, and anyone who saw my face would vomit … except Black Gauze! But you! You actually killed him! "
Old Antique was silent for a bit before he sighed. "I didn't know he was so close to you …"
Taoist Taotie's mask trembled, and he released a cold killing intent. "I've already set up thirty invisible magic arrays for storing spirit power within a radius of five hundred li … I'm determined to succeed in my plan!"
