Chapter 60: Waiting for Death Saplessly (2)
Translator: Sissy That Walk
Back then in his previous life, Luo Jianqing knew that his junior brother had been far better than he was now as he had the power to defeat any middle-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator in an instant. Also, he looked much more mature back then. One wondered if it was because he had stayed in Yu Xiao Peak for too long. The way he carried himself felt a bit like that calm and reserved Xuan Lingzi.
However, knowing his strength now, there was a high possibility that Li Xiuchen would fall into a coma for a long while. So, it was very likely that these treasures would be ruined by this battle.
Feeling aggrieved, Li Xiuchen let out a long sigh, “What the heck?”
The moment he finished his words, the golden light and the silver light started glistening in turns up in the sky while a rush of zither sound broke the air. Then there was this extremely horrible spiritual power rushing out, and with it came a strong aroma of spiritual pills.
Seeing that, a beam of light flashed through Li Xiuchen’s eyes and then he quickly hid under the Zhong Qi Stone. Not far away from him, Luo Jianqing also held his breath and kept his eyes focused on the battlefield.
Bang!
Bang!
The Pill was the first to fall down from the sky and it crushed down on the ground hard, causing a crack and the clumsy flood dragon also fell on the ground after him. It felt like an earthquake when it landed on the ground and Luo Jianqing was apparently shocked by that. However, Li Xiuchen, not far away from him, was still observing the situation with a lively interest.
The flood dragon turned into a bald man after it landed. He looked like a vulgar man with fat face, and his clothes was already soaking wet with blood. Nonetheless, he stepped forward with an excited look on his face, knowing that he had backed the Pill to the wall and it’s his best chance to take the medicine now!
On the ground, the elegant suave scholar in blue robe raised his hand to wipe off the cyan liquid at the corner of his mouth.
The flood dragon had already flown to his side, yet the man simply stood up casually and flicked away the dust on his sleeve as if nothing had happened. When he was tidying himself up, the flood dragon stopped his attack and waited for a while. Then the dragon said, “Qing Jun, we have known each other for a hundred years and all this time we have been fighting with each other. However, I want to break through Earth Level and became the Demon Exalt, so I have to eat you. That’s my only chance.” The man looked up at the flood dragon and said, “All men must die. It’d either me or you today. You don’t need to say anything. As a Pill, my fate has been written long ago, but you are not the one I’m waiting for, so I can’t help you with your cultivation.”
The bald man laughed and said: “Then it is going to be a fight!”
The man in robe withdrew his zither and replied, “Then let’s fight!”
After finishing those words, they gathered their powers around and got ready to fight. An illusory flood dragon appeared behind the bald, big man while a misty cyan flower appeared on the top of the elegant suave scholar. After the appearance of these illusions, the violent and strong wind got stagnant. Luo Jianqing kept a close eye on the scene. Unfortunately, the flower was too weak to show what was really happening, which bummed Luo Jianqing out.
Gold Sun Heaven Live Flood Dragon launched the first attack and the Pill also pushed the cyan flower forward.
The two clashed, making roaring sound in the sky. The Pill was weak at that point and soon it started to show signs of defeat. But suddenly, the handsome scholar whispered, “You are not the one I’m waiting for.” Then the cyan flower was suddenly lit up with golden fire.
“You used the pill fire!”
Bang!
The illusion of the flood dragon instantly disappeared, while the bald man spat out a mouthful of blood and fell on the ground. Over at the other side, the man looked as pale as a piece of white paper with golden fire burning on his body. After a short while he suddenly turned into a small pill and flew to the east.
Upon seeing that, Li Xiuchen excitedly widened his eyes and quickly went after it. After Li Xiuchen was gone, Luo Jianqing took the huge Zhong Qi Stone into his interspatial ring, and then went to catch up with him.
Fast as Li Xiuchen was, he was simply no match for the pill when it came to speed. After a while, he lost the track of the pill, but he kept going forward with Luo Jianqing hot on his tail.
They spent half an hour chasing the pill in this way.
Feeling frustrated, Li Xiuchen kept looking around, but in the end he had no choice but to keep going forward. Another half an hour passed and Li Xiuchen was passing by a hillside. He seemingly stepped on something hard and suddenly became extremely excited and stooped down to check the ground under his feet.
All of a sudden, a dazzling blue light lit up the whole hillside.
“Got it... ahhhhhhh!”
Luo Jianqing came out from behind the huge stone nearby and he kicked the then stunned Li Xichen away, who immediately rolled down the hillside.
However, no sooner had Luo Jianqing taken out the pill when he heard the roaring thunder in the sky, and after a short while, many lightnings came straight down one by one and struck the grounds near Luo Jianqing.
If Luo Jianqing moved to the left, the lightning would strike on the right; if Luo Jianqing moved forward, the lightning would strike behind him. The Heaven seemed like a blind man. It always missed its target as if it couldn’t find out where he was.
Luo Jianqing had known a thing or two about this phenomenon. However, now that he saw it happen with his own eyes, he was still a bit shocked.
‘Nine Heavenly Seizure Record was such an almighty book. It allowed to me get rid of the Heaven Way.’
After eighteen thunderbolts, the heavy cloud in the sky gradually dissipated. It seemed like that the Heaven Way thought there was no need to fight any more, so it gave up and let Luo Jianqing go. Honestly speaking, if the Heaven Way had determined to kill Luo Jianqing, he would be dead already. If it struck a rain of thunderbolts, Luo Jianqing would have nowhere to run.
But at that moment, killing Luo didn’t seem like a worthwhile thing to do.
Seeing the thunderclouds dissipated, Luo Jianqing put on a casual smile and lowered his head to take the pill out from the earth. But the moment he got the pill, bang! A magnificent pill power rushed into his meridians from his palm. This healing pill was actually attacking him!
“Wrong!”
Luo Jianqing immediately transferred his spiritual power to resist it.
However, this pill power was so overwhelming that it smashed into Luo’s meridians with such magnificent power that seemed to devour his spiritual power. Seeing that his power was swallowed, Luo Jianqing slightly closed his eyes and subconsciously worked up the elusive power in his body which belonged to the Nine Heavenly Seizure Record.
When the elusive power met with the pill power in his body, the latter was suddenly shocked, and it tried to escape out of his body. However, the elusive power wouldn’t let it go. Like a long snake, the power rushed out of his body and wrapped the little pill up.
The pill resisted slightly in vibration.
Luo had been soaked in sweat and his face was all pale. He let out a sigh of relief. To his surprise, an elegant voice suddenly arose from the hillside, “You are not the person I am waiting for, either. Don’t be so greedy.”.
Luo was dead beat, but with the last bit of strength he let out a sneer, “The most capable man takes the treasure. I might not be the one you are waiting for, nor do I know who the right one is, but you are now firmly in my hand and it won’t take me much energy to gulp you down.
The Pill smiled, “Then why didn’t you just erase my consciousness and eat me back then?”
Luo was obviously not expecting this and replied, “I will do it now.”
The Pill let out a gentle smile and said matter-of-factly, “It’s too late.”
Boom!
A rush of power charged from behind Luo and his body started shaking like crazy. He subconsciously took out a blue bamboo umbrella from the interspatial ring and deployed it. The moment he open that umbrella, the power came smashing down on it, and broke six of its ribs. Only then did he manage to stop that onslaught.
