In front of the Sword Gauntlet!
"Little brat, go to hell!"
Just as Yu Haoran walked out of the Sword Gauntlet through the South Gate and before he could even take a breath of fresh air, a murderous roar sounded in his ears.
Yu Haoran's Natal Sword instantly appeared in his hand and assumed a defensive posture. The Ruyi Bell that had fused with his soul formed a second layer of defense. Immediately, Yu Haoran nervously responded to the sneak attack.
However, when he saw that the black saliva ball was still a Rank Four, Seventh Grade Black Saliva Ball, he secretly let out a sigh of relief. At the same time, he took out a poison pill from his storage ring and flicked it towards the Black Saliva Ball.
"Explode!"
Just as the Black Saliva Ball was less than two meters away from Yu Haoran and collided with the poison pill, Old Man Cang Shan roared.
"Not good!"
Seeing that Old Man Cang Shan had actually used the Black Saliva Ball to launch a sneak attack because Yu Haoran had successfully entered the Sword Gauntlet's sixty-fourth floor, Qian Shuhao didn't care about the principle of putting one's own safety before directly rushing towards the Sword Gauntlet.
However, just as he started to move, he instantly stopped.
This was because the Black Saliva Ball that was thrown towards Yu Haoran's head didn't explode because of Old Man Cang Shan's roar. Instead, it obediently landed in Yu Haoran's hand.
"If we were to talk about who in this world knows the Black Saliva Ball the best, then if I, Yu Haoran, claimed to be second, no one would dare to claim to be first!" Looking at the Black Saliva Ball in his hand, Yu Haoran said arrogantly.
However, not only did the crowd not have a trace of disgust, they even felt that his words were too modest.
Looking up at Old Man Cang Shan's expression, Yu Haoran said with a gloomy face.
"Old man, although I don't know who you are and why you attacked me, but since you have already provoked me, the Sword Gauntlet will be your burial place."
Then, he directly threw the Black Saliva Ball in his hand towards Old Man Cang Shan.
Looking at the black saliva ball being tossed towards him, Old Man Cangshan couldn't help but have an empty expression on his face.
Since it was the Black Saliva Ball that originally belonged to him, Cang Shan Old Man understood the power of the Rank Four Grade Seven Black Saliva Ball very well. He knew that he would definitely not be able to withstand the lethal poison of the Black Saliva Ball after it exploded. He hurriedly increased his speed in an attempt to escape from the Sword Gauntlet.
However, he had forgotten one thing. When he used the Black Saliva Ball to sneak attack Yu Haoran, the Black Saliva Ball still had his residual Divine Sense and aura.
The black saliva ball that had fused with the poison pill suddenly seemed to have its own consciousness. Beyond the expectations of everyone present, it directly passed through the limits of time and space, instantly appearing above Old Man Cang Shan's head before exploding.
"Ah …!"
Although the explosion of the Black Saliva Ball was unable to directly harm Old Man Cang Shan, the poison it contained was enough to take his life.
Not to mention, the Black Saliva Ball's poison had undergone a mutation after fusing with the special poison pill. Not only was its corrosive nature even more potent, the pain caused by the corrosive process had also been magnified by more than ten times.
Hearing Old Man Cang Shan's tragic and painful howls from within the black fog formed by the explosion of the Black Saliva Ball, the eyes of the people on the mountain peak did not have the slightest bit of pity. Instead, there was only cold laughter and pleasure.
"Brat, I beg you, I beg you to give this old man a quick and painless death!"
Old Man Cang Shan looked at his own flesh and blood that had clearly been corroded, but a special energy still protected his soul in his sea of consciousness. Not only was he unable to die a quick and painless death, but he also had to continue enduring torture that was tens of times more painful.
Old Man Cang Shan, who also understood the poison of the Black Saliva Ball, knew that the mutation of the Black Saliva Ball came from the poison pill that had been fused with it.
Therefore, Old Man Cang Shan, who yearned to end this tragic and painful experience as soon as possible, could not help but plead.
"Tell me, why did you sneak attack me?" Slowly walking towards Old Man Cang Shan, who was shrouded in the black fog, Yu Haoran took out an antidote pill and asked with a gloomy expression.
"You have successfully entered the 64th floor of the Sword Gauntlet, causing this old man to lose face in front of everyone. In the future, I will not be able to step foot into the Sword Gauntlet. Therefore, this old man became angry out of humiliation and attacked you." Old Man Cang Shan quickly explained.
"Master Yu, Old Man Cang Shan is not lying!"
Being able to enter the 64th floor of the Sword Gauntlet was already sufficient proof of Yu Haoran's shocking talent in the way of the sword. At the same time, taking into account his talent in the way of pills and formations, as well as the speed at which his cultivation increased.
The Martial Saint with the surname Chou knew that in the future, Yu Haoran would definitely be a peerless Sword Sovereign who would be able to influence the situation in the Tianxuan Continent.
Therefore, after Old Man Cang Shan explained the reason for his sneak attack, he immediately confirmed it, hoping to form a good relationship with Yu Haoran.
Glancing at the Martial Saint with the surname Chou and then at the black fog formed by the explosion of the Black Saliva Ball, Yu Haoran could not help but furrow his brows.
As a First Tribulation Quasi-Martial Saint, it was normal for him to cherish his reputation. It was also reasonable for him to launch a sneak attack out of humiliation and anger.
However, the Old Man Cang Shan that the Martial Saint with the surname Chou had mentioned sounded vaguely familiar to him, as if he had heard of him somewhere in his previous life.
"Kid, hurry up, hurry up and give this old man a quick death!" Seeing the suddenly silent Yu Haoran, Old Man Cang Shan could not help but remind him, as he could not bear the pain any longer.
"I finally know who you are!"
His reminder revealed a trace of instinctive arrogance, causing Yu Haoran to suddenly think of the tyrannical style of the Yuxu Temple. Then, he thought of the Withered Vulture Elder that he had met at the auction in Guangling City some time ago, and finally remembered Old Man Cang Shan's true background.
Old Man Cang Shan was the same as Old Man Cang Shan. He was an expert that the Yuxu Temple had secretly nurtured. His purpose was to help the Yuxu Temple deal with some matters that were not convenient for them to appear in public.
The reason why he had used the Black Saliva Ball to launch a sneak attack on Old Man Cang Shan's face was only an excuse. The real reason was that he wanted to take revenge on behalf of Zhuo Yucheng.
"Kid, what do you mean?" Old Man Cang Shan asked in confusion as he endured the intense pain.
"Old Man Cang Shan, perhaps others do not know your true background, but don't think that you can hide it from me, Yu Haoran."
In response to Old Man Cang Shan's questioning, Yu Haoran sneered as he put away the antidote pill he had just taken out. Then, he took out another antidote pill and threw it directly into the poisonous fog.
"Ah …!"
Old Man Cang Shan could not help but ask, as the pain increased several times in an instant, causing him to howl even more miserably.
"Kid, what did you just do?"
"Nothing, I just added some seasoning to let you enjoy the most inhumane pain in this world," Yu Haoran sneered as he replied.
"Why did you do this to me?" Old Man Cang Shan asked in confusion.
"Because you and Old Man Cang Shan are from the same faction!"
As he stepped out of the Sword Gauntlet, Yu Haoran explained why he had tortured Old Man Cang Shan like this.
