Chapter 49 - 49 49 A Punch Pierces Through the Body
?49: Chapter 49: A Punch Pierces Through the Body 49: Chapter 49: A Punch Pierces Through the Body Five people were in the room.
Ye Song was seriously injured, Sun Yun was slightly better but still unable to exert his full strength.
Molan’s injuries were minor.
Ouyang Xuan was essentially unharmed, just a bit drained.
The last one, Gu An, seemed to be severely injured.
But only he knew that so far, he was in the best condition.
However, he was not in a hurry to escape, but rather wanted to see what Ren Shan was up to.
Perhaps he could obtain some useful information.
Then this matter could be completely over.
He could then focus on logging and enhancing his cultivation.
“We won’t go ourselves,” Ouyang Xuan turned to Gu An and said,
“We hope you can help us retrieve something from inside, do you know how your chances stand against Ren Shan?”
Gu An was surprised.
After contemplating for a moment, he suddenly thought of a possibility.
The other party lured a Qi Refining Eighth Layer with a Qi Refining Seventh Layer, could part of the reason be to defeat Ren Shan?
With this assumption, Gu An asked,
“I can win.
May I know what senior wants?”
Ouyang Xuan fiddled in her Storage Treasure, then took out a green elixir pill, and said earnestly,
“Eat this, and then we can discuss clearly.”
Saying this, she handed over the elixir pill and further explained, “There’s only one of these pills.
Whoever among you three eats it will be able to walk out of this room alive.”
“Corpse Puppet Pill?” Molan asked in shock, “How do you have such an elixir?”
“People of the Demon Path?” Ye Song inquired.
“It’s just a type of poison.
Don’t talk about it so harshly,” Ouyang Xuan said calmly,
“Besides, your actions hardly differ from those of the Demon Path.
In fact, they may even be worse.
Attacking fellow sect members, wanting fellow sect members to die instead.
We are all cultivators, so stop deceiving yourself with talk of Demon Sects.
You are inherently bad, and it’s the same everywhere.
It just looks a bit more respectable on the surface, but the essence is the same bad.”
“So you’re a good person?” Molan scoffed.
Ouyang Xuan chuckled and said, “Of course I’m bad, so whether you kill me or I kill you, it’s justified.
Moreover, I did give you a chance.
After all, I had asked you initially if you could pretend not to see us.
Unfortunately, you did not wish to leave.”
After finishing this, Ouyang Xuan looked at the three and asked, “So, who will eat it?”
“Can you still live after eating it?” Molan asked coldly.
“Alive, yet not fully human, but with some simple consciousness.
It’s better than being completely dead,” Ouyang Xuan looked at Gu An and said,
“Do you want to try?
I see that your people didn’t intend for you to live.
Eat it, and help us with our task.
How about I let you personally kill these two?”
“Can I not eat it?” Gu An asked.
“Of course not,” Ouyang Xuan shook her head.
Gu An looked at her and said,
“I was framed and ended up here.
May I ask if senior can let me go?
I will not disclose anything about this place.”
“No, that’s not possible,” Ouyang Xuan shook her head and said, “You and I have no enmity, but your departure would cause me immense trouble.
Moreover, we need your help.
Those two aren’t as useful as you.
Being a puppet with little of your own consciousness isn’t too bad.
At that time, you will only listen to me, and even feel happiness.
It’s much better than living in constant fear of being killed.”
Gu An looked at her, fell silent for a moment, and then said,
“Can senior let me die understanding it more clearly?
What do I need to do after eating the medicine?”
“Very simple.
Ren Shan has something that you need to retrieve,” Ouyang Xuan arranged some more talismans, making the room an impenetrable Prison Cage, and then continued,
“A lot of people want this thing, and Ren Shan will hide it very well.
Without this object, her life will be very difficult.
Although it’s cruel, her life or death has no significance to us.
But obtaining the object, our future will be much better.
People are selfish.
So, we can only sacrifice her to achieve our goals.”
Just like sacrificing you.
You all have no choice.”
“Don’t be so presumptuous.
We have similar cultivation levels; what makes you think you are stronger than us?
Do you really think you’re some sort of senior?” Ye Song said coldly.
“It’s the same, if it were us who had fallen, you would be saying the same thing.” Ouyang Xuan ignored Ye Song and the others and turned to Gu An:
“What else do you want to hear?”
“What is that thing?” Gu An asked, then added: “How can it be found?”
“We can’t give you a clear answer about what that thing specifically is, but one thing is certain, it carries a crack,” Ouyang Xuan said seriously.
“If you can’t get it quietly, then kill her and take everything she has.”
A crack?
Gu An thought for a moment.
When he fought with Ren Shan, there wasn’t anything with a crack on it.
However, something did develop a crack from his strike.
He thought back again and suddenly, Gu An paused.
There was nothing with a crack on Ren Shan, but it seemed there was on her daughter.
“Don’t waste any more time,” Sun Yun said.
Gu An also knew that the opponent would not allow him to ponder and then make a choice.
So he could only nod and say, “Okay, I’ll take it.”
As Gu An stepped forward a few steps.
When he was close to Ouyang Xuan, he reached out to take the Elixir Pill.
However…
Just as the other party was about to let go, Gu An stepped forward.
The Spiritual Energy inside his body circulated, and a violent Blood Qi appeared in his hand.
Immediately after, he threw a punch.
This sudden change surprised Ouyang Xuan.
She immediately activated her defense to withstand the punch.
Boom!
A powerful force erupted.
Ouyang Xuan staggered back two steps, but fortunately, the attack was blocked by the Defensive Treasure.
But soon, she noticed a new fist was already on its way.
“It’s useless, you can’t break through my defense,” Ouyang Xuan said.
She was about to counterattack immediately.
Surprisingly, her opponent was also at the Qi Refining Eighth Layer.
And he was not injured at all.
Gu An didn’t listen to what she was saying; he had no reservations at this moment, and Gang Qi crazily surged out, covering the violent Blood Qi.
Enhancing the Mountain Opening Fist.
A gust of wind howled.
The Gang Qi swept around like Wind Blades.
Cuts after cuts made it difficult for people to keep their eyes open.
Such terrifying Gang Qi whirled towards Ouyang Xuan.
It shocked her.
She felt that this punch was somewhat unexpected.
Qi Sea Sky Gang?
In Qi Refinement, it could absolutely crush peers.
Her opponent actually reached this level.
“No, stop!”
Although she said this, Ouyang Xuan also circulated her bodily power and attacked with full force.
Her speed was not inferior to Gu An’s.
Then…
Boom!
A fist and a palm collided.
Crack!
Bang!
The back of Ouyang Xuan’s hand was instantly shattered by the Gang Qi.
Painful screams followed: “Ah~”
The fist did not pause for even a moment, striking the Defensive Treasure again.
Crack!
Boom!
The Magic Robe shattered explosively.
Finally, the fist roared like a sharp sword, piercing through Ouyang Xuan’s body.
