Chapter 257: Counterattack

The purple Heavenly Blade fell suddenly.

It slashed directly on Sheng Yunzi's Life Lamp protection. While there were more ripples, Sheng Yunzi's Heavenly Blade also slashed out, colliding with Xu Qing's Heavenly Blade, both collapsing.

And Sheng Yunzi's body also retreated rapidly in the impact raised by the collapse of the Heavenly Blade.

But Xu Qing's attack didn't end. Everything before was a cover, for the sake of the full-strength strike of the Jin Gang Sect Ancestor inside the black iron slip at this moment.

Strands of electric light instantly erupted from Xu Qing's collapsed Heavenly Blade, showing extreme speed.

The lightning on the iron slip was clearly controlled, winding in a spiral shape, which made the speed of the black iron slip erupt again.

And the Jin Gang Sect Ancestor clearly knew the importance of his mission, especially seeing that the Shadow played a crucial role in this battle, he had been uneasy in his heart.

At this moment, fearing that he couldn't complete the task, he went crazy, not hesitating to pay the price to explode all the thunder patterns on the iron slip, exchanging for more astonishing speed and power, like a real heavenly thunder, when Sheng Yunzi's body retreated, directly hitting his Life Lamp's protection.

With a bang, the Life Lamp protection was indeed astonishing, didn't collapse, still existed, just in the extreme speed and impact of the black iron slip, it pierced a small hole.

The next instant, the black iron slip was rolled back by the rebound power of the protection, becoming incomparably dim. Vaguely, the Jin Gang Sect Ancestor inside even let out a shrill scream. Clearly, this backlash caused him no small damage.

As for the small hole that was blasted out, it also recovered quickly, instantly returning to normal.

"Can't open my Life Lamp protection, it's useless after all."

Sheng Yunzi's mouth revealed a cold smile, but his body still had to retreat in this impact. It was really that Xu Qing's attack just now was like a rainstorm, one wave after another, the speed was extremely fast.

First it was the Cang Dragon, then the Dharma Ship self-detonated, then the Heavenly Blade. Although they couldn't shake Sheng Yunzi's Life Lamp protection, these waves of impact were not bad in power.

Although because the protection existed, it still couldn't truly shake him, just like Sheng Yunzi's attack just now, it couldn't shake Xu Qing either, only shattering his protection.

But overall, Sheng Yunzi was still slightly better. He had mastered more supernatural powers. At this moment, while retreating, Sheng Yunzi's eyes revealed bright light, and he saw Xu Qing's weakness.

"Your techniques are too few, and you lack supernatural powers that can display great power!" Sheng Yunzi's gaze was like electricity. Since the battle began, Xu Qing had been evenly matched with him. At this moment, he finally saw Xu Qing's disadvantage.

Hearing Sheng Yunzi's words, Xu Qing's eyes were colder, and he didn't say a word.

And Sheng Yunzi laughed loudly, both hands formed seals. He prepared to complete the kill by targeting Xu Qing's weakness next. Just about to unfold supernatural powers, but just at this moment, his face suddenly sank.

The Life Lamp protection outside his body was now a bit dim, and at the same time, ripples rose on the surface, especially the place that was pierced by the black iron slip and then healed, a sense of corrosion appeared in Sheng Yunzi's heart.

This made Sheng Yunzi think of the poison he felt when Xu Qing and Sima Ling were on the battlefield in the Seven Blood Eyes.

"Small technique of poison, hard to climb the Great Dao!"

Sheng Yunzi snorted coldly. He had a special constitution since he was young, and didn't care about ordinary poison. At this moment, he waved his hand casually, his Life Lamp shone, emitting light, making the corrosion on the protection disappear instantly as if purified.

After finishing these, he was just about to attack, but the next instant his face changed greatly.

A strong stinging pain spread through his whole body instantly. His skin even turned cyan-black in an instant, and there was even rich heterogeneity permeating his body, making his Life Fire sway.

"This is!"

Sheng Yunzi's breathing was rapid, his heart shook. He felt that his body was poisoned by a deadly poison. This poison was too fierce, making his eyes appear blurry, and a sense of crisis permeated his whole body at this moment.

This poison was exactly the small black insects.

In fact, the small black insects had been sticking to Sheng Yunzi's Life Lamp protection from beginning to end, but couldn't penetrate, waiting for an opportunity.

The Jin Gang Sect Ancestor's penetration gave them this opportunity. In an instant, a large number of small black insects drilled in through that small hole.

Sheng Yunzi was actually right. Xu Qing did lack great-power supernatural powers, but he was also wrong. Although Xu Qing didn't have many great-power supernatural powers, he had poison!

At this moment, as the poison of the small black insects erupted, killing intent was strong in Xu Qing's eyes, rushing towards Sheng Yunzi suddenly.

He had been fighting until now, waiting for this opportunity. At this moment, seeing Sheng Yunzi poisoned, his speed erupted completely, approaching in an instant and throwing a punch.

Jin Wu manifested behind him, fire erupted, Life Lamp formed, black canopy heaven-shaking, combined with Xu Qing's five-fire combat power, this punch was directly earth-shattering, and the lethality was huge.

And Sheng Yunzi, under the poison, couldn't avoid it at all. Even if he retreated rapidly, he was still caught up by Xu Qing and directly blasted on the protection.

The sound was heaven-shaking, Sheng Yunzi's whole body shook violently, his body rolled back like a kite with a broken string, Xu Qing chased, and threw another punch.

Sheng Yunzi's breathing was rapid, bloodshot eyes appeared, while resisting with the power of protection, he operated his Imperial-level cultivation technique rapidly, making Miemeng emit a sharp sound, rushing into his own body to dispel the poison.

At the same time, the seven-colored glazed umbrella above his head emitted a brilliant glow, wanting to force the poison in his body out, but Xu Qing waved his hand, and the great black umbrella directly covered Sheng Yunzi's head, pressing down fiercely.

The sound of rumbling echoed. Sheng Yunzi spat out blood. At this moment, both inside and outside his body were in crisis. He couldn't handle it completely for a time, and the feeling of life and death surfaced before him, and Xu Qing's fist fell.

The sound came out, Sheng Yunzi's body retreated again, Xu Qing was as fast as lightning, directly chasing, one punch after another, and there was also the Heavenly Blade slashing down one after another, and Jin Wu going all out to suck, and the Jin Gang Sect Ancestor there risking his life to penetrate.

At the same time, the Shadow side also seized the opportunity. When Sheng Yunzi had to reduce his suppression and put his energy into dispelling poison, it spread towards the second Dharma Aperture.

Fully erupted!

In the sky, Sheng Yunzi was one-sided, constantly retreating, constantly spitting out blood. Every mouthful of blood contained deadly poison, and after landing, the ground was corroded.

The Life Lamp protection outside his body also flashed violently, until finally Xu Qing held both hands and smashed fiercely.

The rumbling was heaven-shaking, Sheng Yunzi's Life Lamp protection finally couldn't resist, dissipated, and the poison in the surroundings poured in on a larger scale, and Sheng Yunzi also spat out blood, his body rolled back, his expression full of anger, but he didn't continue to fight, but rushed towards the forbidden zone rapidly.

"What kind of poison is this!"

Sheng Yunzi roared in his heart, and there was strong unwillingness. He was originally six fires, originally could crush, all because of that black shadow, making his own combat power drop, and now the other party's poison was also terrifyingly terrifying.

This made him want to go crazy in his heart. At this moment, he was disheveled and extremely embarrassed, his golden robe was also dim, and he looked very tragic.

If there were Seven Sect Alliance disciples here seeing this scene, they would definitely be shocked until now, because they had never seen Sheng Yunzi look like this.

Sheng Yunzi felt aggrieved and furious, but seeing Xu Qing's killing intent heaven-shaking, rushing again, he breathed rapidly and accelerated his escape. At the same time, he took out a jade slip, transmitted sound rapidly, and summoned the three protectors he had arranged to go out to search for the items he needed to return immediately.

It was just that his protectors had been out for a long time, and didn't expect Sheng Yunzi to encounter such danger here, so even if they received the information at this moment, it would take time to rush back.

It was just that his protector had been away for a long time, and he had not expected Sheng Yunzi to encounter such danger here, so even if he received the message now, it would take time to rush back.

Miemeng manifested to resist with all its strength, Xu Qing directly threw a punch, Sheng Yunzi resisted with difficulty, blood spilled from the corner of his mouth again, Xu Qing's face was ferocious, his head slammed forward fiercely, directly hitting Sheng Yunzi's face.

Sheng Yunzi groaned, full of blood, eyes revealing madness, wanting to struggle and retreat, but Xu Qing's black Evil Fire erupted suddenly, forming a big mouth, covering Sheng Yunzi.

He had ruthlessness in his eyes, wanting to live-refine Sheng Yunzi's soul to become the item for his own Dharma Aperture opening.

Seeing this, Sheng Yunzi's madness became even thicker, letting out a shrill sound, the golden robe outside his body suddenly bulged and exploded directly.

This robe was also a treasure. At this moment, it erupted to form a violent force. Sheng Yunzi relied on this force, his body retreated suddenly, and after such a period of time, his Life Lamp finally managed to suppress the poison in his body.

Making the Life Fire sway and calm down a bit, but he knew it couldn't persist for too long, and Xu Qing was aggressive and killing intent was astonishing. Thus, Sheng Yunzi didn't hesitate. At the moment when his injury was briefly calmed, he roared and took out an item from his storage ring!

This was a piece of wood, somewhat broken, and should be a part of a wooden item.

At this moment, after being taken out by him, terrifying fluctuations erupted on this wood. This fluctuation was so strong that Xu Qing's face changed. He felt that the Life Fire in his body seemed about to extinguish, the Dharma Apertures were all shaking, and the divine soul also appeared to have the intention of leaving the body.

Even the sky was affected at this instant, and the earth was the same. Countless vitality gathered frantically from the surroundings, making this wood manifest into a door that was entirely black, with countless nail marks on it, in the blink of an eye.

Strange and gloomy, with the appearance of this door, it permeated. Especially the nail marks on this black wooden door looked shocking, some even could see brown blood inside.

And these marks were of different depths, and the time they were left seemed to be different, giving people the feeling as if countless people had once torn and scratched on this door with all their strength.

The feeling of terror spread uncontrollably.

Xu Qing's eyes contracted suddenly, retreating rapidly.

Sheng Yunzi had thick madness in his eyes, rose into the sky behind the door, and pointed at Xu Qing.

"Open!"

That black wooden door creaked and opened slowly towards Xu Qing. ===== CHAPTER 258 =====

"Open!"

That black wooden door creaked and slowly opened toward Xu Qing.
