Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

At this moment, Chen Tian's eyes gleamed, and he silently memorized everything in his heart! He knew that such a duel between experts was a rare opportunity, and he had to comprehend it carefully!

Just then, the light sphere filled with the five elements of heaven and earth—metal, wood, water, fire, and earth—reached its peak, radiating a terrifying aura. Seeing this, Hou Zhen's face revealed a determined look, and he stretched out his hands, plunging them into the light sphere.

"Boom!"

The instant Hou Zhen's hands entered the light sphere, as if an explosion had occurred, an extremely powerful aura burst out from within, stirring Chen Tian and Li Qianyun's clothes, causing them to flutter loudly.

"Blood Sovereign Blade, Appear!"

However, Hou Zhen paid no attention to any of this. He shouted loudly, and immediately, the light sphere began to tremble violently, emitting ear-piercing buzzing sounds. Its shape also changed rapidly, and in a short while, it transformed into a giant blade about thirty feet long!

Just as this giant blade appeared, Hou Zhen slammed his left hand against his chest. With a "puff" sound, he spat out a mouthful of blood, which poured into the giant blade.

"Buzz... Buzz... Buzz..."

After absorbing the blood spat out by Hou Zhen, the giant blade began to buzz incessantly again, finally taking shape completely, transforming into a giant long blade that was entirely blood-red.

Hou Zhen glanced at the blood-red giant blade, then gripped it tightly and strode towards the fat old man.

Its momentum was so fierce that it caused the world to change color!

"Hmph, a beast is just a beast, only knowing how to put on a show. Let's see how this old man breaks you!"

Seeing Hou Zhen charging towards him with the blade, the fat old man was shocked, but he still spoke forcefully. Then, he stretched out his left hand, aimed at Li Qianyun, and coldly shouted, "Lend me your spiritual treasure!"

As he spoke, Li Qianyun's natal spiritual treasure, the golden chrysanthemum that had accumulated her life's cultivation, slowly flew out of her body and floated towards the fat old man.

Just as this golden chrysanthemum left Li Qianyun's body, she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, her face pale, almost collapsing.

However, the fat old man showed no pity in his eyes. He pinched Li Qianyun's natal chrysanthemum, and his entire body's spiritual power surged, rapidly pouring into it.

Under the constant injection of spiritual power, the originally golden chrysanthemum instantly turned into an enchanting purple, and a strange fragrance spread out, filling the space.

However, when Chen Tian smelled this strange fragrance, he didn't feel any refreshment. Instead, he felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.

"This fragrance is poisonous!"

Chen Tian seemed to have realized something, and his expression changed suddenly. At the same time, he immediately mobilized his spiritual power to seal his seven orifices, preventing any trace of the fragrance from seeping in.

However, He Busi and Li Qianyun on the other side were not as lucky as Chen Tian. When they smelled this strange fragrance, their expressions instantly became dazed, shaking their heads and giggling foolishly, as if they had fallen into a kind of psychedelic situation, thus losing themselves.

Seeing this, Chen Tian's eyes narrowed. Then, he looked at the fat old man again, wanting to see what he would do next.

When the originally golden chrysanthemum completely turned into a deep purple, the fat old man tapped his finger, and a slender crack immediately appeared in front of him. It was actually a spatial rift.

As soon as this rift appeared, gusts of cold air blew out from it, as if the rift led directly to the Nine Nether Hell. Although Chen Tian was far away, he couldn't help but shiver when he felt the cold wind blowing out of the rift.

"Crack!"

At the same time, a white shadow suddenly rushed out of the spatial rift. Chen Tian took a closer look and found that it was actually a white skeleton without any flesh. As it walked, the bones collided with each other, making strange noises.

"These are all your food, eat them!"

After seeing the white skeleton appear, the fat old man immediately tore off almost all the chrysanthemum petals and threw them to it.

In a short while, the skeleton's legs and arms all became the same as a normal person's, with hair, flesh, and skin.

However, when the flesh and blood grew to its head, it suddenly stopped, leaving half of its head covered in flesh and the other half with bare white bones, making it look terrifying.

However, although only half of his face had flesh, Chen Tian could still see from his eyebrows and eyes that this person must have been an extremely handsome man in his lifetime. It was just that for some unknown reason, he was refined into a white bone skeleton after his death.

After understanding this, the shock in Chen Tian's heart became even stronger. However, he knew that now was not the time to think about these things, because Hou Zhen had already arrived with his blade.

Everything that had just happened seemed long, but it was actually completed in an instant. Just as the half-faced monster had just condensed, Hou Zhen in the distance had already strode to a place ten feet away from the fat old man. After scanning him with sinister eyes, Hou Zhen suddenly raised the blood-red giant blade and slashed down fiercely. Immediately, a hundred-foot-long blade aura burst out.

The blade aura was like a mountain, whistling and arriving. Wherever it went, trees broke and grass shattered!

However, at this time, the fat old man, after seeing this attack full of terrifying power, was not moved at all. He flashed a thought in his mind, and the half-faced monster suddenly rushed over, blocking in front of him, stretching out his hands, as if trying to take the terrifying blade aura head-on.

"Boom!"

After a loud noise, the blade aura stimulated by Hou Zhen instantly turned into nothingness, but looking at the half-faced monster again, it was found that its left arm had also been chopped off.

"Hmph!"

Seeing this scene, Hou Zhen snorted coldly. Then, he raised the blood-red giant blade in his hand again and slashed down heavily.

"Boom!"

Another loud noise, the half-faced monster once again resisted this blade aura, but its right arm fell in response.

"I'll see how long you can last!"

Hou Zhen's face was gloomy, and after shouting, he actually issued three more powerful blade auras in a row.
