Chapter 1250: The Mutated Heaven-Fixing Divine King
Peerless Medicine God · 第1250章 变异的定天神王
In a mountain range not far from the Soul Refining Sect space, figures were bustling as several martial artists were being chased by a desolate beast.
“Split up! This desolate beast is too fast; if it catches up, none of us will escape.” Suddenly, one of them shouted.
The desolate beast was ferocious and strangely fast, about to catch up with them.
Just then, everyone felt a blur before their eyes, as if a figure had passed by them.
“Boom!”
Flesh and blood flew everywhere!
The group was shocked to find that the desolate beast had been blasted into a pulp.
A figure stood with his back to them, hands clasped behind him.
The martial artists exchanged glances, astonished by his skill.
“Thank you, senior, for saving us!” They bowed respectfully.
The man slowly turned around, and when they saw his face, their expressions changed drastically!
“Heaven-Fixing Divine King! You... you’re not dead!”
They were horrified; the one who saved them was none other than Zhuge Qingxuan, whom they thought had died in the Soul Refining Sect space.
“Hehe, you seem... to wish me dead?” Zhuge Qingxuan suddenly laughed sinisterly.
Zhuge Qingxuan’s demeanor was now completely different from before.
Previously, though domineering, he had no trace of sinister aura.
But now, even his smile sent chills down one’s spine.
A single glance at him made one feel as if plunged into an ice cellar.
“No... I wouldn’t dare! We heard you encountered great trouble in the Soul Refining Sect space and thought...”
The man tried to explain, but Zhuge Qingxuan cut him off with a wave of his hand.
“I ask you, where is Ye Yuan now?” Zhuge Qingxuan said.
Their faces changed, and they almost simultaneously shook their heads.
The Lingtian Divine King was their savior; how could they betray him?
“Senior, has the Lingtian Divine King come as well? I... haven’t seen him!” The leader among them said.
“Hehe, still playing tricks before me? It seems you are close brothers? In that case...”
As he spoke, Zhuge Qingxuan casually pointed a finger.
“Pfft!”
A martial artist’s forehead was pierced through, and he fell stiffly to the ground without even time to defend.
“Fourth Brother!” The leader’s eyes blazed with fury at the sight.
“I’ll give you three breaths.” Zhuge Qingxuan said indifferently.
The leader’s eyes were bloodshot as he glared at Zhuge Qingxuan!
“Three breaths my ass! You despicable wretch, you’re not fit to tie the Lingtian Divine King’s shoes! Heaven is blind for not letting you die in there! Brothers, even if we perish today, we cannot betray the Lingtian Divine King! Charge with me and kill this dog!”
This group of five were rogue cultivators who had become sworn brothers due to similar temperaments. The eldest was already a Void Profound expert, and the others were also at the Divine King realm.
They had little interest in the conflict between the Lingtian and Heaven-Fixing Divine Kings, but after entering the Godfall Mountain Range, they were first driven as cannon fodder by Zhuge Qingxuan and later moved by Ye Yuan.
Though not completely enlightened, they were unwilling to betray Ye Yuan!
In their hearts, Ye Yuan was the hero of humanity and their only hope.
Betraying Ye Yuan was no different from burying humanity with their own hands.
Zhuge Qingxuan killing the fourth brother did not intimidate them but instead ignited their innate bloodlust!
However, their strength was insignificant in Zhuge Qingxuan’s eyes.
Seeing the four enraged, Zhuge Qingxuan sneered and casually pointed a finger, annihilating them with devastating force.
“Hehe, that kid has quite the skill, as if he’s drugged them. This feeling... reminds me of Jue Tian back then! You’re far inferior to him.”
Suddenly, Zhuge Qingxuan’s words turned strange and mocking.
The next moment, he reverted to his original tone and snorted, “None of your damn business! You were just a dog chased into the Godfall Mountain Range by Jue Tian back then!”
“Hehe, your shamelessness really has the style of Zuo Zong! Now that we are one, that kid is our common enemy, so don’t curse yourself. Without me, you can’t kill him!”
“Hmph! You’d better behave, or I won’t hesitate to die with you!”
“Give it up! I know your kind too well. You won’t die with me! Enough talk; that kid is probably about to enter the Divine Forbidden Territory now! Let me control the body and use the Blood Escape Tracking Art; I’ll surely find his trail.”
“You have a way to track him? Why didn’t you say so earlier?”
“Hehe, you didn’t ask! My methods are beyond the comprehension of mortals like you. Even Zuo Zong in his day feared me!”
“...”
It turned out that when Zhuge Qingxuan and Li Kui fought, they had shattered the space.
Originally, Li Kui had the upper hand.
But at a critical moment, because the Undead Ghost Fiend was incomplete, Li Kui’s soul had a fatal flaw. Zhuge Qingxuan seized the opportunity, and they ended up in a mutual defeat.
However, Li Kui’s methods were truly bizarre; he brought a remnant soul and charged into Zhuge Qingxuan’s body, attempting to possess him.
The two fought another battle inside Zhuge Qingxuan’s body.
In the end, neither could overcome the other.
Unexpectedly, their souls became entangled.
Now, they shared one body.
The Heaven-Fixing Divine King had become neither human nor ghost.
…
“It’s done!”
In the Divine Beast Domain, Ye Yuan was pleasantly surprised.
A drop of blood oozed from his fingertip.
“Quick, drip the Ancestral Saint’s essence blood onto the Sacred Dragon Token!” the ancestor urged.
Ye Yuan nodded and dripped the essence blood onto the Sacred Dragon Token.
“Boom!”
A terrifying dragon might surged into the sky, and dragon roars echoed across the wilderness.
Ye Yuan felt a resonance between his flesh and blood and the Sacred Dragon Token.
But it was only a faint trace.
With his current strength, he could not unleash the power of a Divine Artifact.
Even in the Divine Path era, Divine Artifacts were extremely rare.
To activate the Sacred Dragon Token, one needed to condense the Ancestral Saint’s essence blood using a Divine Path secret technique and then drip it onto the token.
This secret technique was formed with Divine Inscriptions, and ordinary people could not comprehend it in a short time.
But for Ye Yuan, an Ancestral Dragon Soul, it was nothing.
He fully comprehended the secret technique in just three days.
“Come, test its power!” the ancestor said with a smile.
It was his first time witnessing the power of an Ancestral Dragon Soul, and he had been astounded by Ye Yuan’s comprehension of Divine Inscriptions these past days.
Ye Yuan nodded and swung the rod.
“Boom!”
A towering mountain was leveled to the ground!
