Chapter 519: Taboo! (1)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In such a short period of time, the power in Xiao Shi and Xiang Zizhen’s bodies was constantly flowing away, causing their cultivation levels to fall.
Xiao Shi directly fell from the Life Spirit stage to the Soul Awakening stage. Xiang Zizhen had even fallen from the Martial Demon Realm to the Martial Soul Realm. This shocked Xiao Shi. This was the first time he felt the horror of the power of a Sage’s domain.
“The so-called power of the Sage Domain was that these Sages can condense all the power in their domains, including the power of all martial artists in their domains. As long as it’s a martial artist in his domain, he won’t be able to resist. When the Sage mobilizes the power of the domain, the power will be lost and condensed in the Sage’s hand.”
Xiang Zizhen’s expression was solemn.
Xiao Shi was very shocked by this. Although he knew that Sages had extremely terrifying strength in their domains, he did not expect Sages to be able to forcefully mobilize the strength of other martial artists in their domains.
This method was really too domineering. This also made Xiao Shi feel the terror of a Sage for the first time.
Now that Xiao Shi and Xiang Zizhen’s cultivation levels had fallen, it directly disrupted their original plan, making them hesitate if they should take action at this time.
After some thought, Xiang Zizhen gritted his teeth and decided to continue. After all, it was not only him and Xiao Shi whose cultivation levels had fallen. Everyone in the Xingluo Territory had their cultivation levels fall.
Moreover, this drop in cultivation was only temporary. It was not a permanent drop. Xiang Zizhen brought Xiao Shi along. They headed all the way to the lowest level of the prison.
Before that, Xiang Zizhen had already used his authority to transfer many jailers away, allowing him and Xiao Shi to not encounter anyone as they moved forward.
Soon, they arrived at the lowest level of this prison. This place was pitch-black. A huge and complicated pattern gathered on the ground, like a gorgeous blooming flower. A figure sat cross-legged in the entire flower core.
It was an old woman with white hair. Her eyes were closed and her face was filled with wrinkles. Even though her cultivation level had fallen, she was still at the Martial Demon Realm!
“This person is the guardian of this place. If you want to enter this place of imprisonment, you have to defeat her first.
“However, this person is not an ordinary Martial Demon Realm cultivator. She… has the enhancement of the Lord of Xingluo. If my cultivation level has not fallen, I’m confident that I can deal with her.
“But now that my cultivation level has fallen, I can’t use many methods. At most, 1 can only restrain her. 1’11 be the only one to restrain her later. Find an opportunity to enter the imprisonment ground.” Xiang Zizhen sent a voice transmission to Xiao Shi through his spiritual sense.
Although he had long known that once a Sage mobilized their domain power, their strength and cultivation would decrease, he did not expect the Lord of Xingluo to mobilize his domain power in his original plan.
Because before the operation, Xiang Zizhen’s master had told him before. In this battle, the Lord of Xingluo would be unable to mobilize his domain power. Unexpectedly, even though the Lord of Xingluo was trapped in the Four Symbols World Forbidden Formation, he could still mobilize the power of his domain.
This caused them to have no choice but to make some adjustments to their plan.
“Don’t you need me to attack?”
Xiao Shi felt that if he and Xiang Zizhen joined forces, their chances of winning seemed to be higher. However, Xiang Zizhen shook his head. He said with an extremely serious expression. “You have to remember that no matter what situation you encounter later, you can’t attack her! You just have to find the opportunity to enter the imprisonment ground. You must not attack!”
Xiao Shi nodded thoughtfully.
After giving his instructions, Xiang Zizhen’s gaze locked onto the old woman in front of him.
Swoosh!
He moved and rushed towards the old woman. The moment he rushed out, the old woman’s tightly shut eyes suddenly opened.
Xiao Shi could clearly see that there were no pupils in the old woman’s eyes at all, only gray and white. However, when she looked at Xiang Zizhen, Xiang Zizhen seemed to have been locked onto.
“Something’s wrong.” Xiao Shi frowned slightly. Then, he saw overlapping images appeared within the old woman. A decaying figure in a tattered black robe floated up from the old woman’s body, emanating cold air. It pounced ferociously at Xiang Zizhen.
However, in the next moment, the figure was shattered by Xiang Zizhen’s punch. When this figure was shattered, it was like sputtering ink. This ink touched Xiang Zizhen’s body and let out a burning sound. It made Xiang Zizhen seem to have been contaminated. Moreover, it was not only his body that was contaminated.
The contamination seeped into his soul. Not only did Xiang Zizhen slow down, but his entire mind also became adrift. The most terrifying thing was Xiang Zizhen’s pupils actually disappeared bit by bit under this pollution.
It was as if he had been assimilated by the other party. He would gradually become like the other party.
Fortunately, Xiang Zizhen had many tricks up his sleeve. Before his mind dissipated, he stopped this pollution. However, it could only prevent it from spreading, but it could not eliminate this pollution.
Xiao Shi also saw that this pollution was not simple. This must be the reason why Xiang Zizhen told him not to attack. Once he attacked the old woman, he would be contaminated by this pollution. At that time, it would be very difficult to infiltrate the imprisonment ground.
Xiang Zizhen had already arrived in front of the old woman..
