Most importantly, his trick worked.
Qin Shou and Wu Chi looked at each other as if they had reached some kind of agreement. They nodded slightly, turned around, and stepped forward at the same time. Their target was Wutian.
Seeing the two aggressive and unfriendly people, Wutian could not help but raise his eyebrows.
Originally, he had planned to wait for the three of them to fight to the death before reaping the benefits, but he did not expect Jian Huo to shift the target to him with just a few words.
It seemed that the brains of these peerless geniuses could not be underestimated.
To be honest, Wutian had underestimated the three of them this time.
Like him, the three of them had received special care from the mysterious man.
Moreover, it was more difficult for the three of them to pass the test.
This was because he knew that the Fire Essence was fake, but Jian Huo and the other two did not.
However, the three of them still passed, which was enough to show that their brains were not inferior to his.
In that case, how could they fool him before a life-and-death battle?
Therefore, this time, it was Wutian who underestimated the three of them, and was somewhat whimsical.
Swoosh!
Qin Shou and Jian Huo stopped a hundred feet away and glanced at the two people and two beasts.
Jian Huo also came forward, but he kept a distance from the two of them and was secretly very vigilant.
"Eh, something is strange!"
Suddenly, a trace of surprise crawled up Wu Chi's face. He glanced back and forth between the little fellow, the King Of Worms, and Little Wu Hao with a strange light.
"Strange?"
Qin Shou and Jian Huo could not help but look at them seriously.
When the focus fell on the little fellow, the king of worms, and Little Wu Hao, Wutian was ignored again.
After a while, Wu Chi said in surprise, "He is actually an energy body, and it seems to be very powerful."
Qin Shou nodded with a look of disbelief on his face. He said, "And the black Demon Frog and the beetle, no matter how I look at them, they are a little strange. They are obviously different from ordinary Demon Frogs and beetles, but I can't tell what the difference is."
Jian Huo nodded in agreement.
Shi Mu's attention had been focused on the scar-faced man, and he had completely fooled the other man and the two beasts. Then, Qin Shou and Wu Chi had appeared one after another, and Shi Mu had completely forgotten about them.
However, now that he took a closer look, he realized that this man and two beasts were very unusual.
As he pondered, he suddenly had an idea and sent a voice transmission to Wutian, "Sir, how about we work together?"
"Cooperation?"
Hearing this, Wutian was even more astonished, but he did not deliberately look at him. He only seemed to casually glance at him, then calmly watched the little peacock who was going through the tribulation. He replied, "Tell me, how do you want to cooperate?"
Jian Huo said, "Let's work together and get rid of these two."
"As their names suggest, none of them are good people."
Wutian grumbled in his heart and transmitted his voice, "I don't have any grudges with them and I don't want to cause any trouble. Brother Bastard, it's better to find someone else!"
Being called a bastard again, Jian Huo's killing intent soared. However, facing the two great threats of Qin Shou and Wu Chi, he could only swallow his anger. In his heart, he muttered, 'If there are other people here, why would I work with a trash like you?'
On the surface, he did not show any abnormality and transmitted his voice, "Sir, you don't want to cause trouble, but that doesn't mean they won't. To tell you the truth, they have already taken a fancy to your little peacock. Based on my understanding of them, they will not give up until they get their hands on it."
Wutian joked, "Aren't you also drooling over the little peacock?"
Jian Huo secretly said, "I admit that I do want the little peacock, but it's different now. These two are my life and death enemies. Compared to the little peacock, I'm more eager to get rid of them. As long as you and I work together to kill them, not only will I give up on the little peacock, but I will also thank you with a great gift."
"What great gift?"
Wutian secretly asked. He naturally would not believe Jian Huo's nonsense. If the two of them were really eliminated, the first thing they would do was to attack him.
However, he was not afraid at all. What he needed to do now was to stall for time and wait for the Bird Saint, the Root of All Evil, the Fire Kirin, and the other wild beasts to arrive. Then, he would wrap the three of them up like dumplings and kill them all.
The three of them were peerless monsters and definitely had some secret trump cards. Once they made a move, he had to kill them easily. If they were to escape, there would be no doubt that there would be endless trouble in the future.
Just as Jian Huo was shifting the trouble to the east, he had secretly transmitted his voice to the Bird Saint, the Root of All Evil, and the other wild beasts through the Earth Manifestation Token.
"Ten thousand spiritual essences and a Sixth Tribulation Monarch Weapon."
Jian Huo replied and sent out his thanks.
"Are you trying to get rid of a beggar?"
Wutian sneered in his heart but did not say it out loud. He replied, "Let me think about it."
Then, he pretended to be deep in thought.
After about three breaths, Wu Chi, who was sizing up Little Wu Hao, the King Of Worms, and the little fellow, finally shifted his gaze to Wutian. He revealed a friendly smile and asked, "Are you a native here?"
Wutian did not answer, but there was a hint of mockery in the depths of his eyes.
Seeing this, Wu Chi was not angry. Instead, the smile on his face became even brighter. He said, "Actually, I don't need you to answer. I know you're a native here because I've never seen you among the people who came this time. Now, you only need to answer one question. Yes or no, and I'll let you go. "
"It seems that I've been completely ignored."
Wutian could not help but smile bitterly.
Thinking back, he could not blame the three of them.
He was the last to enter Tengoku.
He was also the last to enter the Void where the blood-colored altar was.
He was also the last to enter the grotto.
He was not the last to enter the Path of Life and Death, but there was no difference between him and the last because only Huangfu Mingzhu and the others were left outside.
He was always the last to enter, and the three peerless geniuses were always looking at the front. It was normal that they did not notice him.
Wutian collected himself and looked at Wu Chi and the other two. He said, "Tell me, what's the question?"
Wu Chi said, "Is the little peacock your spiritual pet or not?"
Wutian shook his head. He said, "If I say yes, you'll definitely attack me immediately. If I say no, you won't believe a stranger's words. May I ask, does it still matter if I say yes?"
The smile on Wu Chi's face became brighter. He said with a smile, "You're very smart. Very well, I won't talk nonsense with you. If you kill yourself on the spot, I promise to let the two little beasts next to you go, as well as that energy body, and leave your corpse intact."
His tone was very calm, and his smile was very amiable. One could not even feel the slightest bit of malice. However, such a person was more terrifying than those sinister and cunning villains.
"Why isn't he here yet?"
Wutian muttered in his heart. It had been several dozen breaths of time since he sent the voice transmission to Bird Sage and the others. Why was there still no trace of him?
"It seems that you really want me to attack."
Wu Chi stepped towards Wutian. His smile was still there, and there was no killing intent in his eyes.
However, when Wutian saw this person walking towards him, he felt a chill run down his spine. A strong sense of crisis swept through his heart!
He did not dare to be careless. He focused his spiritual energy and locked onto Wu Chi.
When Wu Chi appeared in front of him, Wutian was even prepared to counterattack. But suddenly, Wu Chi strangely disappeared!
In the next moment, Wutian felt a sharp pain in his back!
His heart trembled. He stepped forward without hesitation!
However, he was shocked to find that he could not move his body.
That's right!
He could not move!
No matter how hard he tried, he could not move at all. It was as if he was frozen in ice!
"So you're also in the peak stage."
Then, Wu Chi's voice sounded behind him. He could even feel the heat from Wu Chi's breath when he spoke.
Wutian's hair stood on end.
He was also very puzzled. How did this person see through his cultivation level?
Wu Chi smiled. "Are you curious as to how I know your cultivation base?"
Wutian nodded.
"Haha, I'll let you die with a clear understanding."
Wu Chi explained. "This is my Confinement Domain. Any living being whose cultivation level is lower than mine or on the same level as mine will not be able to move as long as they are enveloped by the Confinement Domain. However, if it's a living being whose cultivation level is higher than mine, it can only slow down their movements. It cannot completely imprison them. "
"I don't think you understand. Let me summarize it briefly."
Wu Chi continued. "My cultivation level is in the peak stage. The Confinement Domain can completely imprison living beings of the peak stage and below. Therefore, I concluded that your cultivation level is also in the peak stage. Because if you were a peak stage Great Emperor, you would not be motionless like this. "
That self-opinionated attitude made Wutian want to kick him.
Jian Huo's pupils shrank. So this person was only in the peak stage, but his battle strength was on par with his. It seemed that this person was not as simple as he appeared to be.
Jian Huo glanced at the motionless Qin Shou with his arms crossed. Jian Huo transmitted his voice, "Sir, make a decision quickly. If you agree to cooperate with me, I will immediately lend you a hand."
Seeing that Bird Saint and the others had not returned, Wutian weighed the pros and cons in his heart. He secretly replied, "Alright, we will cooperate. However, you only need to deal with Qin Shou. I will deal with Wu Chi."
Jian Huo was surprised. "Are you sure you can do it?"
Wutian sneered. "Don't worry, I will take good care of this arrogant guy. Moreover, I have a plan that can quickly eliminate these two …"
Jian Huo's heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly asked, "What plan?"
"The plan is …"
Wutian secretly transmitted a few words to Jian Huo. A cold light flashed in the depths of his eyes.
"Alright."
Jian Huo looked at Wutian meaningfully. He walked to Qin Shou's side and secretly said, "Qin Shou, why don't we work together?"
Qin Shou calmly replied, "Why should I work with you?"
Jian Huo said, "As you can see, Wu Chi's strength is very strong, and with the addition of the Confinement Domain, although you and I are not weak, it may be difficult to defeat him. However, as long as you and I work together to eliminate him, whether it is for you or me, it will be greatly beneficial."
Qin Shou's eyes flashed. He asked, "Then who will Peacock belong to?"
Jian Huo said without hesitation, "You."
"Me?"
Qin Shou was a little stunned. He had thought of various possibilities, but he did not expect Jian Huo to give such a straightforward answer.
However, just as he was stunned, Jian Huo slapped his palm on Qin Shou's back. The Sword Emperor's sword Qi that had been accumulating for a long time turned into golden blades. They pierced through Qin Shou's skin like a hot knife through butter and went straight for his Qi Sea!
