But... wasn’t Jiang Jichen’s body supposed to be disintegrating and perishing?
How did he manage to reverse life and death at the very end?
At that very sa mont, the sa thought crossed the minds of both Guo Qishan and the Guo Family’s Spirit Infant Realm Cultivator.
They, of course, couldn’t have known that Jiang Jichen possessed a supre, peerless Spirit dicine like the Celestial Blood Grass.
The Celestial Blood Grass contained the Essence Blood of a Celestial Human and had absorbed the Sun and Moon Essence for ten thousand years. It naturally possessed the heaven-defying ability to instantly repair the body and replenish Blood Qi.
Jiang Jichen had been holding two leaves of Celestial Blood Grass in his mouth, and just a mont ago, he had crushed one.
The imnse Celestial Human Essence Blood within the Celestial Blood Grass forcefully protected his body from destruction.
And the Sun and Moon Essence... instantly replenished the Spiritual Power he had just exhausted!
That was why Guo Qishan and the Guo Family’s Spirit Infant Cultivator had witnessed that unbelievable scene.
Of course, if they were to find out that Jiang Jichen actually possessed a heaven-defying Spirit dicine like the Celestial Blood Grass, they would likely grit their teeth in fury, their hearts even more unbalanced.
It was just that... a situation where Jiang Jichen’s death seed certain had now beco one where they faced their own demise.
The turn of events was completely unexpected, happening in the blink of an eye.
As the bloody light from the blood-colored relics slashed down, even the Guo Family Elder, a Spirit Infant Realm Cultivator, could only hastily conjure a Spirit Shield to block in front of Guo Qishan.
But... in the end, it couldn’t completely block the ray of blood-light. It was easily pierced and continued straight for Guo Qishan.
In that mont between life and death, Guo Qishan actually managed to erupt with astonishing potential.
All of his Defensive Secret Artifacts and Secret Skills erupted, transforming into layers of Spiritual Patterns that flickered with Undying Light, coiling before him like an eternal radiance.
But when that ray of blood-light swept past, all the Secret Artifacts and Secret Skills shattered, the radiance vanished, and Guo Qishan, as if struck by lightning, violently spat out Essence Blood. His face was covered in a dense web of bloody lines, looking as if it would crack apart.
But at that instant, a Spirit Pill radiating a crystalline, precious light appeared in his hand, and he imdiately put it in his mouth.
Instantly, waves of sacred, gentle light erged from his body, and the bloody lines on his face vanished in a flash.
In the end, other than a pale face and a weak aura, Guo Qishan’s life was not in danger.
Because in that mont between life and death, the pill he had swallowed was... a Life Returning Pill!
As its na implied, even a person whose life was forfeit could be granted a new one with this pill.
Jiang Jichen found it a bit of a pity, but it was also within his expectations.
’It would be absolutely impossible for soone of Guo Qishan’s status not to have so life-saving asures.’
However, being able to injure him, weaken him, and leave him with less than half his Cultivation had already achieved his goal.
’This way, I can proceed with the next step!’
Originally, Jiang Jichen hadn’t been so resolute. He had only planned to lure them away and then escape himself.
But what Guo Qishan had said earlier gave Jiang Jichen a reason he had to kill him, and even that Spirit Infant Cultivator.
Perhaps if others knew what Jiang Jichen was thinking, they would only think he was insane and find the idea utterly ridiculous.
’An Innate Realm cultivator killing soone at the Spirit Infant Realm?’
’Delusional, laughable, insane, unrealistic...’
No words could quite describe it, but that was precisely what Jiang Jichen was thinking at this mont.
’Only by killing them can Yee Young and the others be safe!’
"Jiang Jichen, I didn’t die this ti, which ans you must!"
Guo Qishan roared.
The Guo Family’s Spirit Infant Realm Elder was also seething with rage. A re Junior Cultivator of the Innate Realm had nearly killed his own Young Master right in front of him.
If that had actually happened, his path of Cultivation would likely have co to an end.
In the end, although Guo Qishan didn’t die, he had been forced to use a life-saving dicine that was suprely precious to anyone... a Life Returning Pill.
’Unforgivable! He must die!’
The Guo Family’s Spirit Infant Cultivator snorted coldly, and it was as if a hundred thousand heavenly thunderclaps bood in Jiang Jichen’s ears.
SPURT!
The force of the sound caused Jiang Jichen to bleed from all his facial orifices as he spat out an even larger mouthful of Essence Blood.
The Guo Family’s Spirit Infant Cultivator radiated a monstrous killing intent that shook the void. His voice rang out indifferently, "Insignificant mortal ant, I sentence you to death, to fall forever into the Purgatory Realm!"
As his voice fell, Spiritual Patterns took shape, condensing into countless ghostly hands that tore toward Jiang Jichen.
Jiang Jichen finally spoke, laughing wildly and arrogantly, "You couldn’t kill once, what makes you think you can a second ti? My fate is my own to control, not even the heavens can take it! And you think you can, you old bastard? You’re not worthy!"
As he spoke, Jiang Jichen, holding up the giant cauldron, suddenly retreated.
A mont ago, he had charged forward, ready to die, as if unstoppable by the Ten Thousand Spirits.
Now... he was suddenly retreating without any warning. This left the Guo Family’s old and young pair sowhat dumbfounded, unable to comprehend Jiang Jichen’s unpredictable thoughts.
"Trying to escape? I can crush you from a thousand ters away. Die!"
Regardless of what Jiang Jichen was thinking, the Guo Family’s Spirit Infant Realm Elder was now completely beyond rage, attacking the fleeing Jiang Jichen from afar.
BOOM!
However, this ti the Guo Family’s Spirit Infant Realm Elder’s attack hit nothing but air. Jiang Jichen had actually teleported a thousand ters away in an instant.
It was the profound mystery of the Void Shadowless Technique!
Activating it in a mont of life and death, Jiang Jichen had barely dodged the attack.
But he knew this was only temporary. Once the Spirit Infant Realm Cultivator gave chase, he would ultimately be unable to escape.
Yet, knowing this, Jiang Jichen instead sent a wildly arrogant telepathic ssage from ahead: "Haha... a pair of losers, one old and one young, want to kill ? If you have the skill, catch up to this young master first! I’ll even reward you with so candy!"
As Jiang Jichen fled, he shouted from ahead, his arrogance reaching unprecedented levels.
Guo Qishan and the Guo Family’s Spirit Infant Realm Elder were so angry they could have coughed up blood.
"Jiang Jichen, you little lowlife, you can’t run!"
"Trying to escape from my grasp? Don’t even think about it! I will make you taste a fate worse than death!"
The Guo Family’s old and young pair, beside themselves with rage, quickly gave chase.
However, the Guo Family’s Spirit Infant Realm Elder’s speed was naturally astonishing, and he instantly closed the distance to Jiang Jichen.
anwhile, Guo Qishan was injured and extrely weak, so he was left far behind.
But he didn’t give up, instead following the Elder’s aura in pursuit.
"Trash! Loser! This master is right in front of you, co and kill if you’ve got the guts!"
Jiang Jichen ran and taunted from ahead, seemingly unconcerned even as the Guo Family’s Spirit Infant Realm Elder drew closer and closer.
Provoked and toyed with like this by a re Innate Realm Junior Cultivator, the Guo Family’s Spirit Infant Realm Cultivator’s eyes were bloodshot. Consud by utter rage, his only thought now was to kill Jiang Jichen.
But even though Jiang Jichen was only at the Innate Realm, his speed was too fast and his Body Technique was too slippery. For a ti, the elder couldn’t catch up.
Passing through dense mountain forests, they unknowingly followed Jiang Jichen’s trail.
Eventually, Guo Qishan was left completely behind. By the ti he reached a Spirit Lake, he had already lost sight of both Jiang Jichen and the Guo Family Elder.
By now, he was already starting to pant.
The frantic chase had weakened his already feeble body even further, and the Spiritual Power within him was nearly depleted.
Guo Qishan didn’t want to chase anymore; he wanted to stop and rest.
But what did he see?
In the shadows of every large tree, coiled densely, were black Giant Pythons as thick as water buckets.
And what’s more, a humanoid creature covered in thick, dense fur stood under a towering tree not far away, staring at him with a burning gaze.
That gaze... was filled with hunger!
