The Jade-faced Judge took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, saying, "Qi Zhishan, your suspicion is wrong. I just ca here with the second elder, hoping to hide on the Heavenly Road. What you said has nothing to do with !"
"Wasn’t I clear enough?" Qi Zhishan said, "In this matter, we’d rather kill by mistake than let soone escape, understand?"
"Fine!" the Jade-faced Judge shouted, "Since you said that, I will stay here and let you handle . Let Yang’er and the others leave!"
"Grandfather!"
"My Lord!"
Ge Kaiyang and the three-eyed Ghost King among others exclaid in surprise, but they were quickly silenced by a wave of the Jade-faced Judge’s hand, "Silence, all of you!"
Everyone’s faces turned red, but they dared not speak again. The Jade-faced Judge held significant authority among them.
"Heh heh..." Qi Zhishan sneered, "Old ghost, do you think that’s possible? Wasn’t I clear enough? We’d rather kill by mistake than let soone escape. Who’s to say they don’t know your plan? Even if we kill you, if they return to continue the plan, wouldn’t our efforts be in vain?"
The Jade-faced Judge bristled with rage and shouted, "Qi Zhishan, don’t push it. I’m here, in your hands. Isn’t that enough?"
Qi Zhishan replied with a calm expression, "It’s not enough!"
"You..." The Jade-faced Judge was furious and jumped up from the ground, a cloud of black mist rising around him, with his montum rapidly building up.
"Qi Zhishan, do you think I’m really afraid of you?" the Jade-faced Judge roared, "If I fight to the death, at least one of you two will die!"
"Then fight to the death!" Qi Zhishan said calmly, "I’d like to see what you can do to make one of us die!"
"Good! Good! Good!" The Jade-faced Judge shouted three tis in succession, suddenly retreating a few paces and hovering in mid-air. The black mist around him beca increasingly intense, engulfing him completely.
Qi Zhishan frowned slightly. He could feel the terrifying power of this black mist. It seed the Jade-faced Judge was genuinely intent on fighting to the death!
Nevertheless, Qi Zhishan didn’t hastily make a move, as he was still uncertain about the Jade-faced Judge’s current state of power. Acting rashly could lead to unforeseen outcos!
The black mist rapidly swirled around the Jade-faced Judge; it wasn’t long before the black mist began to thin. Qi Zhishan observed closely as the Jade-faced Judge started absorbing the mist.
With each portion of black mist absorbed, the Jade-faced Judge’s body grew larger and his appearance more sinister.
When the black mist had been completely absorbed, he had transford into a giant about thirty feet tall. The previously handso face was nowhere to be seen, replaced by a demonic visage—sinister and terrifying—awe-inspiring!
"Amitabha Buddha!" Mahakaya murmured a Buddhist invocation, "To think that Benefactor Ge is indeed a mber of the Ghost Realm!"
Qi Zhishan’s knowledge was not as profound as Mahakaya’s, so he couldn’t identify the Jade-faced Judge’s current identity. However, with Mahakaya’s assertion, it was undoubtedly correct.
"So, it’s confird!" Qi Zhishan said coldly, "Looks like our suspicions were right. He isn’t a mber of the Human World, but of the Ghost Realm. He ca here to open a Boundary Point for the Ghost Realm. This ti, we definitely haven’t killed the wrong person!"
"Even if you get it right, so what!" ca the Jade-faced Judge’s rough voice, "Qi Zhishan, Mahakaya, you two have ruined my plans. Today, one of you must accompany in death!"
"That depends on whether you’re capable!" Qi Zhishan snorted coldly, "Don’t think that just because you’ve gotten bigger, you’re more formidable; real strength doesn’t change based on the size of your body!"
"Then let show you my strength!" the Jade-faced Judge shouted, raising his hand and striking towards Qi Zhishan.
The thirty-foot-tall Jade-faced Judge smacked towards Qi Zhishan like a massive fan. The fierce wind generated from the slap caused Qi Zhishan’s clothes to flap loudly.
Qi Zhishan frowned, as the Jade-faced Judge’s power had indeed increased significantly. However, he didn’t back down, choosing instead to et the strike with his palm.
The two palms clashed in mid-air, both retreating a few steps. However, Qi Zhishan retreated significantly more, demonstrating the disparity in their power—currently, the Jade-faced Judge was stronger than Qi Zhishan!
Despite the setback, Qi Zhishan’s face broke into a smile.
"You’re using origin power to clash with , causing such an effect; old ghost, you really are at the end of your rope!" Qi Zhishan laughed, "How many more strikes can you withstand?"
The Jade-faced Judge’s complexion was ashen, just as Qi Zhishan said: he had indeed begun exhausting his origin power with no alternative.
Maintaining this would likely lead to Ge Kaiyang and others dying here, leaving him with no choice but to go all out.
"Don’t worry about how many strikes I can withstand, at least I can kill you!" the Jade-faced Judge gritted his teeth.
"Then we’ll see your abilities!" Qi Zhishan laughed heartily, charging forward again to confront the Jade-faced Judge.
The two clashed several tis, each ti resulting in Qi Zhishan being pushed back. In this brief skirmish, Qi Zhishan sustained injuries, a trickle of blood appearing at the corner of his mouth. After all, with the Jade-faced Judge burning his origin power, his strength surpassed Qi Zhishan’s, making it unavoidable for Qi Zhishan to suffer in these direct confrontations!
Yet, Qi Zhishan showed no sign of retreat, consistently engaging the Jade-faced Judge head-on.
The Jade-faced Judge, on the other hand, was ashen-faced. He had initially planned to use his origin power to force Qi Zhishan to retreat, enabling him to rescue Ge Kaiyang, potentially using the Blood Escape Technique to whisk Ge Kaiyang away.
But Qi Zhishan apparently saw through his intent, refusing to yield, steadfastly blocking his path. Even in dire straits, he resolutely prevented him from approaching Ge Kaiyang, completely undermining his plans, leaving him frustrated to the extre.
The Jade-faced Judge was acutely aware that burning his origin power like this to recklessly clash with Qi Zhishan wouldn’t last long. Ultimately, he might not even be able to kill Qi Zhishan. However, with Qi Zhishan persistently hindering him, he was sure to exhaust him to death!
After another few clashes, the Jade-faced Judge suddenly let out a roar and spat out a mouthful of blood. The blood transford into a mass of black mist in the air, which was imdiately absorbed by the Jade-faced Judge.
Qi Zhishan furrowed his brow; he could see that the Jade-faced Judge was becoming desperate, ready to fight to the death at any cost.
Taking a deep breath, Qi Zhishan fully focused on the Jade-faced Judge, preparing for his desperate attack.
But at that mont, the Jade-faced Judge suddenly opened his mouth and spewed a mass of black mist, rushing straight toward Qi Zhishan!
