Chapter 1998

Is this Lord Lu's method?

Yang Jian's heart was overcome by a huge wave.

Even the divine emissary and Elder Jing Shan could not detect any flaw.

In this way, Lord Lu has seen through any plan of the Strange Clan and the Gu Clan.

This seems more like a game Lord Lu is playing.

Right, he recalled that the Ruthless Empress had said Lord Lu was training disciples.

Heavens!

Being Lord Lu's disciple must be incredibly fortunate, right?

Does he still have a chance?

He has seen Lord Lu's disciples, and each one is extraordinarily heaven-defying!

Most of his own strength comes from the Human Skin Scroll; without it, his combat power would drop greatly.

Thinking of this, Yang Jian looked at Qi Chun Jing and the others, 'Um, what are Lord Lu's standards for accepting disciples?'

Ye Chen smiled and said, 'Master accepts disciples based solely on affinity.'

Yang Jian, pondering, said, 'I understand.'

In this butterfly world, those who wish to become Lord Lu's disciples are as numerous as carp crossing the river.

He still needs to work hard to become Lord Lu's disciple!

Lord Lu will surely be able to resolve the strange Dao Resonance backlash on his body.

At this moment.

Ali looked at Yang Jian, 'Your body seems somewhat off.'

Pfft!

A piece of Yang Jian's skin peeled off.

Just like an old snake shedding its skin.

Ye Chen blinked slightly, 'This situation seems to have become more serious.'

Yang Jian, however, remained calm and said, 'It's fine. This is the price of using the Human Skin Scroll; I'm actually okay.'

Next, everyone chatted for a while about the plan for the Barbarian Ox Star Sea.

Ali said he would later reveal news of the Gu Clan.

Not long after.

The four left the Double-sided Mirror.

Pfft-pfft-pfft!

All four spurted blood from their mouths.

Everyone was stunned.

The faces of the many great demons changed, 'Ali, how are you? Quickly lead us out to fight!'

Just as Yang Jian disappeared, another team from the Reincarnation Ancient Court arrived.

They were surrounded.

Ali held the Double-sided Mirror, his body enveloped in a pink mist, 'All follow me!'

The many great demons hurriedly followed Ali.

Meanwhile, Ye Chen and Qi Chun Jing were pursuing Ali.

After the time it takes to burn an incense stick.

Ali led dozens of great demons out; they looked back with palpitations, and only when they saw no one pursuing did they finally breathe a sigh of relief.

'Ali, if it weren't for your mirror, we would probably all have died here.'

'Isn't that mirror given to you by the divine emissary?'

Ali gave no explanation, just nodded, 'Return to report.'

Back at the garrison, Wang Luo heard of their ordeal and was somewhat surprised, 'Ali, as a subordinate of the divine emissary, your safe return brings honor to the emissary!'

Fang Yuan came to Ali's side and asked, 'How are your injuries?'

Ali said, 'I've suffered some minor injuries. Elder Wang Luo, please bestow upon Ali supreme-grade great demon qi blood Dao Resonance.'

Wang Luo nodded, 'Good.'

Fang Yuan sent a mental transmission to Ali, 'I have seen Ye Chen and Qi Chun Jing, and also Yang Jian. They already know the Gu Clan's plan.'

Fang Yuan said, 'Good. Then how is Yang Jian?'

Ali said, 'Yang Jian's strength is indeed strong; even when fighting demons, the Human Skin Scroll lets him seize the initiative and anticipate the enemy's moves. However, the backlash on his body is already severe; although he doesn't mind, I can see he is forcing himself.'

Fang Yuan pondered, 'This backlash perhaps can only be resolved by the master; even Senior Du Fei Ling cannot suppress it.'

Ali nodded, 'It can only depend on his fate.'

Next, the Gu Clan began acting according to plan, guiding Yang Jian and the Ruthless Empress toward the Barbarian Ox Star Sea.

This star sea is immensely vast; for the Gu Clan to set up the formations, it also takes a long time.

Overall, the Gu Clan's progress has been very smooth.

Some Gu Clan elders even mocked the Strange Clan, 'Let you see how we will slay the Ruthless Empress and Yang Jian.'

The Strange Clan elders just looked disdainful.

Half a month's time quickly passed.

The outer Gu formations of the Barbarian Ox Star Sea have already begun to show signs.

Meanwhile, Yang Jian, the Ruthless Empress, and the others have already entered the Barbarian Ox Star Sea.

Elder Wang Luo ordered, 'First, do not startle the snake.'

The Gu Clan and the Monster Clan below kept complaining to Fang Yuan, "Elder, Divine Envoy, how is Yang Jian getting more and more slippery, like a loach!"

"Moreover, this guy is getting more and more outrageous, often teasing us."

Wang Luo said coldly, "He won't be jumping around for much longer! The great formation of the Barbarian Ox Star Sea has just taken shape; it still needs three days, and then it will completely encircle the entire Barbarian Ox Star Sea."

Other elders were somewhat worried and said, "But that Ruthless Empress is also condensing the reincarnation formation pattern; what if…?"

Wang Luo said confidently, "Don't worry. In three days, the Ruthless Empress can only condense a remnant formation at most. Moreover, I've heard that the Old Ancestor Cangwu will also send someone down then."

Fang Yuan's eyes flickered.

The information he now has is that although Yang Jian can still use the Human Skin Scroll to maneuver, the backlash on his body has become more severe.

And the Old Ancestor Cangwu obviously knows about this.

When the backlash reaches its extreme, send someone to attack Yang Jian!

Fang Yuan secretly had A Li pass a message to Yang Jian.

At this moment.

In the void.

Yang Jian, Ye Chen, Qi Chun Jing, and others were encountering a Gu Clan squad.

"Boom—boom—boom!"

A great battle erupted in the field!

As Yang Jian's thought moved, his eyes turned scarlet, and the Human Skin Scroll flew out from his eyes.

"Hiss!"

His figure became like a ghost, and his attacks completely seized the initiative.

Wherever he passed, even a One-Star Dao Life Realm was directly erased!

And Ye Chen and Qi Chun Jing were also constantly slaughtering.

After the time it takes to burn an incense stick.

Everyone cleaned up the aftermath.

Suddenly!

Yang Jian supported his forehead, his body unsteady, and he almost fell from the void.

"Yang Jian!"

Ye Chen flew over and asked, "Are you alright?"

Yang Jian felt extremely dizzy in his head, and his stomach churned like a river turned upside down.

His skin became dry and withered.

"Crack!"

"Crack!"

He actually shed a layer of skin directly.

Ye Chen, Qi Chun Jing, and the others were somewhat worried, "Yang Jian, temporarily don't use the Human Skin Scroll."

Yang Jian took a pill, feigning strength, "I'm fine."

After a long while, his qi and blood recovered somewhat.

Those pills that Du Fei Ling had given Yang Jian back then could suppress the strange power.

But now Yang Jian's backlash is too severe, and the efficacy of those pills has weakened greatly.

Not long after.

Yang Jian excitedly found Qi Chun Jing and said, "Brother Qi Chun Jing, I've found another ancient relic. Moreover, it contains vast righteousness, which will be useful to you."

Qi Chun Jing sighed.

Ye Chen felt somewhat reluctant, "Yang Jian, didn't I tell you not to use the Human Skin Scroll for deduction anymore?"

Yet a hint of resolve appeared on Yang Jian's face, "Hahaha! Are you worried I'll die? If I'm destined to die, let me blaze brightly one more time."

"…"
